POPULAR VOTE AND RACE PROBLEM.

II anything were needed to destroy
the effectiveness of all efforts now be-
ing made in congress to secure the
adoption of constitutional amenc-
ment whereby senators may be elected
by direct vote of the people Senator
Depew has performed the service In his
amendment to the house resolution,
which is intended to compel the south
ern states to throw open the ballot to
all citizens alike. The change is aimed
at those southern states which have
adopted disqualifying laws to rid them
selves of the ignorant negro vote.
The Depew amendment provides
that "the qualifications of citizens en-
titled to vote for United States senator's
and representatives in congress shall
be uniform in all the states, and con-
gress shall have power to enforce this
article by appropriate legislation and
to provide for the registration of citi-
zens entitled to vote, the conduct Of
such elections. and certiication of the
result" and would. In effect. place the

Under these conditions there is no room
for the drinking man and no tolerance
for the man who, thru the saloon habit,
is in the way of becoming q drunkard.
The principle applies to professional
as we'll as to other forms of labor. We
used to hear of famous lawyers, doc
tors, generals and statesmen with an
infirnity of elf-indulgence;" but
such men are heard Of no more. No
body now employees in any relationship
of responsibility, in any duty calling
for steadiness and judgment. man
who cannot be relied upon for the best
that is in him at any time. The fash
ion of the world has changed, and 1t
has changed not in response to any
merely sentimental feeling, but from &
conviction enforced by many and pain
full experiences that the drinking man.
whether he be a drunkard or mere
occasional tippler, is a dangerous man,
so important q change is having. nat
urally, an important effect upon social
and domestic manners. The social club
is no longer a place where excessive
drinking is tolerated., no decent man
becomes fuddled with wine at dinner;
in respectable social circles, no matter
of what rank. there is no tolerance of

laws of congress. a much larger negro
under the state laws of southern states.
In fact, the amendment would practi-
cally produce the effect of the force
bill, so-called, of some years ago.
People not intimately acquainted
with the race problem of the south
have no idea of what vital Importance
to the peace and welfare of that COM
munity is the solution of the various
phases of this problem. The people OF
the southern states adopting educa-
tional qualifications for the suffrage
frankly admit that it is their purpose
to disfranchise the ignorant negro
vote, the ballot in the hands of thou
sands of such voters being a constant
menace to the peace of the community.
People of the north who have not Wis
tied the south have not the faintest
conception of the density of negro ig-
norance in the thickly populated BLACK
belts of the south. The least that
northerners can do is to let the people
of the respective southern states settle
their own troubles. No northern man
of sense would welcome for his own
state the problem that confronts the
southern people, and it is pernicious
meddling for him to propose laws that
will force the intelligent people of the
south to act according to his own ideas.
With such an amendment attached to
the resolution the southern states will
see to it that the proposed constitu-
tional amendment receives seant sup

How Farmers FIGHT Drouths.

A Kansas correspondent writing from
Wichita says: The farmers and stock
men have for years been a prey to the
unexpected drouths of the middle west.
Invariably they have been taken una
wares by the approach of this form OF
plague; in many cases 1t left them
destitute and starving. Now a ray OF
hope has appeared on the horizon, and
lit begins to seem possible for the far
mer, the cattle raiser and fruit pro-
Queer of the great middle west-that
is, those states west OF the Mississippi
and east of the Rocky Mountains-to
combat the hot winds and rainless sea-
sons.
Naturally, irrigation solved this
problem number of years ago In GER
tain regions, but Kansas, Nebraska,
Oklahoma and contingent territory
have nothing in common with drain
age canals, flooding their fields with
water at proper times, for there are no
large streams to furnish a source to
these artificial waterways. The solution
OF the problem is not SO much in pre-
venting drouths as in preparing for
them.
OF recent years even within the last
season, Kansas and Missouri farmers
and cattle raisers, more especially,
have made great efforts to tide over
drouth seasons. First they began the
construction of huge lakes, then deep
wells are dug, windmills are dotting the
level plains country, and the water
from every spring is carefully placed to
best use. Thus, the problem of water is

much money in farm barns and blooded
stock. one may travel thru these two
states, finding an abundance of wind
mills and lakes of pure water in lieu
thereof The plains of Kansas are dot
ted for miles with windmills, and TWEEN
ty-five may be counted on single
stretch of level sod.
Another manner of fighting the ter
rible effects of drouth is the construc-
ton and use of granaries. 1t is some
times much cheaper and more business
like to borrow money on gathered corn
and harvested wheat than to sacrifice
the same OF the prevailing market
price. Last year Kansas farmers sold
less than one-third of their wheat i'm
mediately following it's threshing. A
goodly portion of it has been held over
until this spring, when the signs are
propitious for another good crop, and
they are emptying their bins and en-
larging their bank accounts. The far
mer who rushes his wheat or corn to
market for cash soon after the harvest
time is called a poor business man. in
deed The drouth has taught them this
new principle. 1t is more generally OBJ
served in the middle west than else
where as irrigation there can not stave
off complete crop failure and the Wis
itation of this plague has been so reg
ular and damaging,

ENGLAND's NEW TAX.
Opens Way for Old Policy of Tariff
Revenue,

Revenue.
London, April 16.-Despite all eff
forts to minimize the Importance of
the revival of registration duties on
grain and flour it is evident that a new
departure has been made in direction of
revenue tariff The duties may be
small and the bakers be unable to raise
the price of loaf, but Cobdenism has
been struck at its most vital point.
If small duties can be placed on
food stuffsthey can also be levied on
many commodities for revenue pur-
poses. Sir Michael Hicks Beach has re-
-luctantly opened the way for trans
formation of the entire tariff system
and while Chamberlain has not OBJ
tanned as much leverage as he desired.
he has secured ground for discussing
commercial and tariff questions at
conference OF colonial premiers and
ministers after the coronation. Laurier,
Fielding, Mulock, Paterson, and Bor-
den are expected to be present from
Canada and Barton, Seldom. and many
other influential men will represent
Australia, New Zealand, and other self
governing colonies.
Cables, shipping subsidies and pos
tai service will come UP, but the main
topic will be imperial defense and
trade. While the colonies will reluct
antly surrender their governing
rights, it is probable that some basis
for financial contribution to the i'm
perial defense may be reported il some
form of preferential tariff be adopted
by the home government. Some colon
les may be willing to agree upon a
common increase of to 10 per cent in
the tariff duties and set apart the sum
thus raised for defensive purposes. If
the mother country be disposed to
adopt a preferential system in dealing
with the colonies Chamberlain has lit
Tie margin for negotiation in the new
corn duties, but the revenue tariff
based on similar principle will enable
him to take up the imperial federation
from business side. There is an
opening for some zollverein talk, with
a chance of dragging Hicks Beach into
another year.

THE pEcADENcE OF PROHIBITION.

There semes to have been a general
falling away of the supporters of con-
stitutional prohibition. Among the nu-
1nerous constitutional conventions that
have recently been or are at present IN
session the prohibitory amendment Is
noticeable only on account OF its an
sence among the changes or innova-
tons In constitutional law to be sub
ago the demand behind the prohibition
amendment was sufficiently strong to
compel its submission in nearly or
uuite one half the states of the nation.
Commenting upon this apparent
change of public sentiment an eastern
writer notes that in all 100000 votes
have been directly cast at different
times in favor of constitutional prohi-
bition. Of the forty-five states, twen-
ty-three have voted directly on the
question of adopting constitutional
amendment for prohibition; of these,
sixteen have rejected 1t. The states
which have adopted "the principle of
prohibition. as it is called, as part
of their constitutions are Kansas II.
1880. Maine in 1884, North Dakota and
South Dakota in 1889, and South Caro-
lima in 1892. Rhode Island adopted it
in 1885, but three years later on a lar
ger vote. rescinded its declaration for
prohibition, voting 1856 In favor and
2S,215 against.
The states which have rejected con-
stitutional prohibition of the sale of
liquor are Arkansas, where the local
option system prevails in so of the g
counties, Connecticut in 1889, Minneso-
ia, Massachusetts, Michigan in 1887,
Nebraska in 1890, New Hampshire in
1889, after living under statutory pro-
hibition since 1856, North Carolina
Ohio, Oregon in 1887. Pennsylvania by
nearly 100000 majority in 1889, Ten
nessee in 1887. Texas Washington In
1890. and West Virginia.
There are 100000 voters In the
United States and 100000 of them, or
one in seven. have at different periods
and for different reasons declared IL
favor of putting prohibition into the
constitutions of their respective states.
A very marked feature of recent con-
stitutional conventions, even in states
where the temperance element is
strong, has been the apparent lack Of
all interest in prohibition amendments.

The Rule of sobriety.
II,ortland oregoninn.l


Practical temperance reform took a
notable step forward when, few
weeks back, the Union Pacific railroad
feet that no man who frequented
drink saloons, while on or off duty
could remain in the service of the COM
paily. Everywhere along the Union
Pacific lines there followed sudden
decline in saloon patronage, and at
Cheyenne, Wyo., the chief center of
railroad labor on the transcontinental
route. twenty-five drinking places shut
their doors within few. days. This in
cident illustrates conspicuously a prin-
ciple which is now being very generally
enforced. First, the ban has been put
upon the drunkard; now the line is be-
ing drawn against the occasional and
moderate drinker, who is regarded as
an incipient drunkard. The great rail-
road companies led off in the movement
and their example is being followed by
employers in every situation where
large responsibility is involved or
where a clear head and steady hand
are essential to efficiency.
The progress of industry and the
pressure Oh cOiHpelllloi iistNc piiSllS6i-
ly eliminated the drunkard. When in
dustry was on an individual basis, it
was possible to get along in some
sort with partially efficient men, but
under modern conditions this is no
longer true. AN efficient man or man
not dependable is a nuisance In any re-
lation. In the railroad service his lapse
of attention of judge or judgement may
result in the most serious disaster; in
factory, one man not up to his work"
may hold back a score or hundred of his
fellow men, and he is certain to destroy
the discipline upon which the general
competence of working force depends.

The Workinswoman's Song.

by Eugene Ware GronquilD, the ne
commissioner of pensions
In very humble cot,
In rather quiet spot.
In the suds and in the soap,
Worked woman full of hope:
Working, singing, all alone,
In a sort of undertone:
with the Savior for friend
He will keep me to the end"
Sometimes happening along
/ had heard the semi-song.
And l often used to smile
More in sympathy than guile:
But ! never said a word
In regard to what l heard
AS she sang about her friend
Who would keep her to the end.
Not III sorrow nor in glee
Working all day long was she.
AS her children, three or four,
Played around her on the acpr;
But in monotones the song
She was humming all day long:
with the Savior for friend
He will keep me TO the end
It's a song / do not sing.
For | scarce believe IL thing
OF the stories that are told
OF the miracles of old;
But know that her belief
Is the anodyne of grief,
And will always be Il friend
That will keep her TO the end,
Just trifile lonesome she,
Just as poor as poor can be;
But her spirits always rose
Like the bubbles in her clothes,
And, tho widowed and alone
Cheered her with the monotone,
OF a Savior and a friend
Who would keep her to the encd.
I have seen her run and scrub
On the washboard in the tub,
While the baby sopped in suds,
Rolled and tumbled in the buds;
Or was padding in the pools
With old scissors stuck in spools;
She still hunming of her friend
Who would keep her to the end.
Human hopes and human creeds
Have their roots in human needs;
And l should not wish to strip
From that washerwoman's lip
Any song that she can sing,
Any hope that songs can bring;
For the woman has a friend
Who will keep her to the end.

coNsuLsYlps AND THEIR FUTURE.

8
An inspiration may come to the
faithful when it is learned that there
are at present hundreds of positions in
the United States consular service held
rast, before the present unprecedented
era of foreign trade enjoyed by Ameri-
can factories, many consular post
paying only $1,000 per annum and fees
has not been sought by the American
place hunters. Within the past few
years these posts have grown some-
what in the matter of fees. until they
are destined to become an object OF
envy. 1t is reported from Washington
! places in the consular service of the
United States occupied by aliens. OF
this number at least fifty have fees and
perquisites attached ranging from
$1,000 to 81, 600 a year.
All of the above places were taken
by foreigners when the fees were not
SuH1clent TO attract the eyes OF the
faithful in this country, but things have
changed. Several heretofore beggarly
places are now paying good incomes.
and many more are destined to see a
new era of prosperity. The expansion
of American foreign trade is. the great
development of the times. American
factories have grown so large and &c
numerous that they are compelled to
extend their field of sales. In every
I line of manufacture Americans are
seeking a foreign outlet. The consuls
in remote posts are beginning to feel
the effect of the change, and likewise
the factory men Of this country are de-
rnanding a superior class of talents in
the personnel of the consular service
1t is safe prediction to estimate that
almost any consular post paying even
a small income today will in very few
years see its Importance to the consul
doubled or trebled. Foreign commerce
for America is dawning upon new era
which should reveal to the faithful of
the dominant party new light.
