The Relgian-Aars Fad.

Farm, Stock and Home: A South
ern California paper, The Tu|are Reg
lister, published where the idiotic Bel
gjan hare fad or craze had its birth,
has this to say in late number:
Notwithstanding the warm wealth
er, a very cold frost has struck the
Belgian hare business In southern
against IL. Their prices are still fan
cy, but there are no sales, and people
are not eating hare With avidity. They
want q taste, and having had q taste
are satisfied. The hare meat is pro-
pounced insipid, and needs good deal
Of what the old woman called shlreing'
to make 1t palatable. Like other forms
Of game they are good once in d while.
That does pot make 40 very much Of q
market, and one good rabbitry will
supply y town IKE Tqlare. II chickens

Some time ago David B. Hill, of
New York, wrote an article for an
eastern magazine in which he told
what were the deeds and policies by
which the democratic party won its
almost unbroken lease Of power from
1901 to 1860. Among them were: "Sa-
credly preserving the public credit; sus-
tanning our national honor and guard
ing our national safety; conducting
successfully two foreign wars; fayoripg
money OF full intrinsic yalue-the
money of the constitution" These
are exactly the deeds and policies Of
the republican administration of
William Mckinley. These are exact
ly the deeds and policies which Mr.,
Bryan condemns, The Republican
party might well rest its case upon
Hills condemnation of Bryanized
democracy and his commendatiop of
republican achievements.

that way in the case of Mr.. Jones, the

In 1864, more than yearafter Abra:
ham Lineoln by proclamation freed
the slaves in the United States, and
just as the Union forces were getting
the Southern COnfc1eracy on the run,
the democratic party met in national
convention and declared the war to he
failure. All through the conflict the
democracy of the nortll-the southern
portion of it being in rebellion-de-
nounced Lincoln in the most I'm.
measured terms. They called him a
tyrant and a usurpcr, and there was
no end to their hatred for him. Now
their orators and newspapers-for.
getting that the generation born since
the war can read history-quote from
Lincoln's sayings as though he had
been democratic prophet. In an
other thirty-iive or forty years the
democracy will be quoting with ap-
probation the sayings Of President
Mckinley and Coy. Roosevelt. The
democratic party generally comes tag
ging along about half-century be.

LETS SEE. Come to think Of it,

LETS SEE. Come to think of it,,
wasn't it the democratic party that
give us that nice, clean statesman,
Sparks, as commissioner Of the gene
raj land office? And have our settlers
forgotten this same Sparks-the man
who required them to tell how many
chickens they had when they came
to make proof, and who conducted his
Office OH the theory that every settler
was a rascal until he proved himself to
be honest? BY all means drop a vote
In the democratic presidential slot
and see another Sparks tumble out.

did not lay eggs it would scarcely pay
for chicken once week, to beef or ba-
con twenty times, Is about the Amer
ican ratio. With Belgian hare once a
month most families will be satisfied.
The craze has spent it's force, and it is
time for people to be getting sick and
turning the things loose to be rounded
up with drives and killed with clubs,
all the same as jackrabbits."
In a few more months this SenSclcss
fad will be sleeping with it's sanccstors,
that have deceived, pluclked and plum
dered since the birth Of the first man
who wanted to getsomething fornoth-
ing. In few more months everybody
will be wondering why or how such a
craze could have been seriously consid-
cred by anybody in possession of his
senses. In few months the dupcs of
the fad will be ashamed of themselves
and the sight OF q Belgian hare will
nauscate them. But those who sold
'pedigreed(?)" hares at thousand
times their value, and those who pock-
cted cash galore for advertising them,
will always regard the Belgian hare as
benefactor and the sweetest-meatcd
animal that embarked with Noah.

Of peaceful negotiation Of our just de-
mands. We consider. however, the
continued occupation OF Pekin to be
ineffective to produce the desired re
suit, unless all the powers unite there
in with entire harmony Of purpose.
Any power which determines to with
draw the troops from Pekin will ne
cessarily proceed thereafter to protect
Its interests in China by its own meth
cd, and we think this will make a
general withdrawal expedient. AS to
the time and manner of the withdraw
al. we think in view OF the imperfect
knowledge of the military situation
resulting from the Interruptions of
telegraphic communication, the sew
eral military commanders at Pekin
should be instructed to confer and
agree together upon the withdrawal as
a concerted movement as they agreed
upon the advance.
The result of these considerations
until there is such a general express
sion bS the powers for continued oc-
cupation as to modify the views ex-
pressed by the government of Russia
and lead to a general agreement of
continued occupation. we shall give
instructions to the commander of the
American forces in China to withdraw
our troops from Pekin after due con-
ference with other commanders as to
time and manner of withdrawal.
The government of the United States
is much gratified by the assurance
given by Russia that the occupation
Of Neuchwang for military purposes
incidental to the military steps for
the security of the Russian border |
provinces menaced by Chinese, and |
that as soon as order will be re-es-
tablished Russia will retire her troops |
from those places if the action of
other powers will be no obstacle there
to- No obstacle in this regard can
arise through any action OF the United |
States whose policy is fixed and has
been repeatedly proclaimed.
