Deep down In the nature OF every

What interests one are the arguments
advanced by this writer. and when
fairly analyzed (, the conclusion is
reached that no matter what personal
interest the writer may have had, his
reasons appear to have the quality of
great soundness. The climatic condi.

good as those of Minnesota, the Dako.

In addition to these the price Of land

these advantages, why shouldn't this

embraced. The hundreds or thousands
OF settlers now there, whose homes
were originally in the United States,
appear to be-are satisfied. Once in
awhile complaints are heard, but the
Canadians have never spoken Of the

WHEAT DUTIES ON A SLIDING
SCALE.

The Patten corner in wheat
has attracted attention to the
fact that the existing Dingley
tariff rate on wheat is 25 cents
a bushel and that such duty
helps to make a corner success
full. If the world-price without
a corner is 81 a bushel, the duty
protects the Spectator in max
ing an artificial price of $l.25 a
bushel, to the great loss and in
convenience of consumers. In
the supposed case no foreign
wheat could be imported till the
price got above $l.25 a bushel.
1t is now proposed by the Bos-
ton Chamber of Commerce to
reduce the maximum duty on
wheat to 10 cents q bushel, with,
however. a sliding scale so ar
ranged that the duty shall vary
with the price in Minneapolis,
st. Louis and Chicago. When
wheat sells in these cities at 80
cents the tariff rate is to be 10
cents, but it is to fall as the
price of wheat rises above 80
cents, so that when wheat sells
at 80 cents the duty will be 7
cents a bushel when it sells at
50 cents the duty will be 5 cents
a bushel; when it sells at 81
cents the duty will be cents a
bushel, and when it sells at 81
there is to be no duty at all
paid on imported wheat. The
effect will be to protect the
farmer against foreign compe-
tition up to a price OF 81 a
busbel-which is considered q
fair price-and to prevent spec
ulators from running the price
up above 81 a bushel, when the
outsider happens to have wheat
to sell us at that price.
Boston proposes, in effect, to
make wheat free of duty when
it sells in certain primary West
ern markets at ST. a bushel.
New York proposes that it shall
be free without reference to the
price. If 81 bushel is salts
factory to Western farmers, the
menace of importation from
Canada would not signify. The
price of Western wheat in the
East would, of course, be, as a
rule, somewhat higher than in
the West, by reason of the cost
of transportation. The princi-
pie of a sliding scale based on
prices would be a novelty in our
tariff laws, and it remains to be
seen how it will strike Senators
who are now recasting the
Payne bill, and how it viii i'm

DECLARATION ON SUFFRAGE.

was one of the largest ever held
in the State, except possibly at
q nominating convention. The
occasion was the meeting OF
the State Central Committee of
the party. Every county in the
State was represented and hun
dreds of prominent Democrats
other than members of the
State Central Committee were
present. Resolutions were adopt
ed declaring that it was a
great mistake to have granted
universal suffrage to the ne
groes of the South at the close
of the Civil War. That the par
ticipation of the negro in poll
tics more than any other thing
brings him into conflict with
the white man. The main pur-
pose of the amendment is to
confine the right of suffrage to
white men and negroes of in
dustry and sobriety. 1t was de-
clared that the proposed amend
ment safeguards and secures
the right of every white citizen
to vote, amply protects the
foreign-born population in their
rights and is wholly free from
all possibility of abuse in its
administration. 1t was de-
clared:
"That it is the sense of this
committee that the main and
vital issue of the approaching
election in Maryland is the
adoption of the suffrage amend
ment, because, if it is adopted,
it will eliminate the undesirable
negroes referred TO from the
electorate of the State, and put
an end to their regime and
power as a potent political fac
tor in our midst, thereby in
surfing the clear. undisputed
sway of the white people of
Maryland while if, on the
other hand, the proposed amend
ment is defeated, it's defeat will
be accepted and hailed by the
fargo masses of negroes in
question as a declaration upon
the part of the people of Mary
land that it is their intention
and will that these negroes
shall be a political power in the
State, not only encouraging
those who are here to redoubled
energy and activity in our poll
tics and government. but at
tracing fresh accessions with
in our boundaries, so that Mary
land will be the only commun-
ity in the whole world where
this inferior and incapable class
of people has real political
power and firm hold upon the
government.
"That it is the supreme duty
Of every Democrat in Maryland
to exert his whole energy to Sc
cure by every lawful means the
adoption of the proposed
amendment at the next general
election, and that this commit
tee !, further appeals to all
thoughtful and independent
white citizens. regardless of
party affiliations, from one end
of the State to the other, to Sc
cure for Maryland the absolute
complete and enduring suprem-
acy of the white races who in
habit it and who alone can rule
it patriotically and well, and SO
hand it down to their posterity
THAT all Democrats in Mary
land shall unite and organize
for the paramount end of secur-
ing the substantial elimination
Of the negro vote, and establish
ing finally the supremacy of
our white people; and that
these resolutions are unani-
mously adoptedand shall be pre-
scented to the chairman of the
