THEY NEED PRACTICE
Why Metcalf Planned Battle
 ship Pacific Cruise.
NO DEFENSE TO FRIENDLY JAPAN.
Rear Admiral Evans, Who Will Conn mand Vast Squadron For Defense of Our. Western Coast, Inter-
 viewed at New York.

- -'~' SA
 SAN FRANCISCO, July 6.-Secretary of the Navy Victor,H. Metcalf desires it to be distitctl' understood that his project of sen>eelg fleet of eighteen battleships around Cape Horn to the Pacific coast early next winter is with out any international significance.
 In the course of an interview Secre- tary Metcalf declared that he had planned the cruise to the Pacific purely to give the squadron much needed practice. He made it clear that no offense to Japan was intended and closed his remarks by promising to give the people of San Francisco and Oakland the finest naval spectacle ever witnessed on the Pacific coas..
 Many false impressions have gained circulation about the movement" said the secretary. "I have held all along that there was practically no signifi- canoe to this movement from a mili- tary standpoint. l have planned this cruise around Cape Horn for the prac- tice of the squadron. How long the ships will remain here I cannot say.
 T hope the talk of Japanese trouble and of international differences may be dropped by the newspapers. There is nothing to produce any feeling ex- cept this talk of the newspapers. The story that Ambassador Aoki is in dis favor with his own government I be- lieve to be purely an invention. I know of no reason wht Japan and the United States should not be on the friendliest terms"
 The opinion of naval experts is that but one route only is feasible for the big ships, and that is by way of the strait of Magellan. The route from New York across the Atlantic and through the Mediterranean and the Suez canal is open to the objection that it would bring the big ships all most into Japanese waters and the movement might consequently be re- garded as a menace, which Secretary Metcalf has stated has never been con- templated.
 It is conceded that Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans will command the fleet in this great movement
 Concerning the trip to the Pacific, Admiral Evans said when interviewed at New York:
 T have received no orders for cruise. What may be in contemplation l of course do not know. It is my business only to do whatever the gov ernment may require"
 It was absurd. he added, to construe the appearance of this formidable fight ing force in the territorial waters of our west coast as a demonstration to impress the friendly government of Ja- pan.
 Tt is silly to talk of war with Ja- pan." he said. Because some tough wrecked Japanese restaurant in San Francisco there is no more reason for war with Japan than there would be for one with China if few hoodlums on New York's east side should stone a Chinese laundry

RECORD CROP VALUES
Crops Not so Big as Last Year, but
Will Bring Farmers More Than
Ever Before.

The yearly report of the Secretary
of Agriculture. which has been made
public. shows that this year, while the
crops have not been so large as in
some other years. their value TO the
farmers will be greater than ever be-
fore, because OF the high prices.
The corn crop is the most impor-
tant This year We have grown about
1853. 1882 900 bushels. There have been
three large crops. but II this one is
sold out at present prices the farmers
will get 1880, 900. 900 more than the
average OF the last five crops.
II is not certain whether hay or cot
ton is the crop next In Importance.
II is thought that the hay this year
is worth more than the cotton. II Is
estimated to be worth 100000. 900, or
SOS 00O, 600 more than ever before. The
value OF the cotton crop is somewhere
between s65o.OO0.009 and s675, 900 900
This is a little below that Of last year.
but ahead OF all others. The size Of
the hay crop is 81 10000 tons.
The wheat crop is fourth In value.
with 625. 6T6 900 bushels. and a value
OF $500. O00.O 600. The oat crop is small
er than usual by 10 per cent, but Its
value. $3.50. 900 900. is greater than that
OF any other oat crop. The tobacco
crop IL the smallest for several years.
being 45.2l3.o0o pounds. but Its value
,67. 900 900. IL greater than usual
Altogether. the total value Of the
wealth produced on the farms OF the
country for the year. is put at t7.4l2.-
900. 900. which IL 1896 900 900 above the
high record Of last year OF course a
great deal OF the wealth has been
needed by the farmers TO support them
selves. but the total shows how very
important to the country the farms
are.
The figures given above are from
the government report. a1d are as
near right as It has been possible for
the government TO get. They have
been calculated from hundreds Of thou
sands OF reports from all over the
country.

A WOMAN SUFFRAGE PLEA

Should women be allowed to vote. Is
question that has long agitated the
minds OF the American people and II
will continue to do so until the ques-
tion is forever settled by the State
legislation favorable to woman suf-
frage
1t must be remembered that woman
is denied this privilege by decree II
man and not OF Cod. After God had
created them male and female, He
gave THEM, not Adam. dominion over
all He had created and He withheld
from Eve nothing He had given 10
Adam.
God in the creation Of woman did
not take her from the head Of man
that she might rule over him. neither
did He take her from his feet that
he might trample upon her, but lie
took her from his side that she might
be his equal in all things. The theory
that woman has a cell more in the
brain and a fibre more in the heart
than man is only in part true. Be
cause woman Is guided more by con-
science, the voice Of the soul. than
man, she must be stigmatized as the
weaker vessel"
1t is argued that the home is wo-
mans sphere, which is true, but no
woman need be out of her element by
going peaceably to the polls and cast
ing her ballot for the cause of right
and justice.
The right of suffrage is granted TO
all classes of male citizens. the for
eigner. negro, gambler, drunkard and
infidel, but woman, the last and best
of Gods creation. queen OF the home
and mother of all humanity, must be
classed with the idiot, convict and
maniac by being denied the right TO
vote. Taxation without representation
is tyranny" and many women are
heavy taxpayers that have no right
to say how the money shall be ex-
pended.
The patriotic song. "The star
spangled banner, long may it wave,
Ger the land of the free and the
home of the brave" seems but a
mockery when we consider that one-
half OF the brain and intelligence Of
our nation is denied the right OF
self-government.
An argument against woman suf-
frage is that she is unfit for military
service; so are many OF the men.
and are exempt from service because
OF physical disabilities.
1t is not necessary for women to
fight, bleed and die to become a quail
flied voter. We are not wanting 20
fight, but to vote. that the great IL
censed evil of our country may be
abolished.
1t is claimed by those opposed to

ever seen. What a pity that such an
art should no longer be known. and
what an honor It would be II some ,f
our Kentucky women could revive II
once more. Such a piece of work Is
as rauch that OF an artist as a paint
ing.
II anyone still has any of the old
eight-gur drafts or books of direction
/ wish she would write me about it.
Three of the specimens are from
Tennessee. One specimen, called isle
Of Palmos," closely resembles our
Pine Blonn, and is a beautiful shade
OF indigo blue. and finely woven.
OF the remaining specimens, four
are from Virginia, two from Georgia,
three from North Caroline, two from
Alabama, one from Arkansas, and one
from Rhode Island. While these all
closely resemble some Of the Kentucky
patterns, only "Gentleman's Fancy" is
the same. Reds and yellows are used
much more than by Kentucky weav-
ers, and the colors are often analine
dyes. Some good specimens Of color
ing with walnut brown are shown. The
Viewers Choice" from Arkansas is
a very light tan and rich walnut brown
with little dull pink, making a very
effective combination.
The specimen from the "Hearthside
LOOM" Rhode Island. is a sample OF
work done by a gentleman who has
taken II up as an artistic employment
In general our Kentucky weavers have
cause to congratulate themselves whe.
their work is thus brought in contact
with that Of others.
