Senator Carlisle td4 in Favor ofGovernment Warehouses for
Farm Products.
Farmers Asking the Applicationof a Principle They Formerly
Denounced.
Very Small Proportion of AgdealturistsWould we Benefted by the Law-
A Dmagerous Departuro.
Wasmc•roL. May 81.--Seator Carlislehas written to B. F. Howard, Tuskegee, Al-abama, in response to a request for hisviews upon the bill providing for a systemof government warehouse for farm pro-ducts, upon which produets treasury notesmay be issued. The senator says, in be-ginning, that-the statement of Howard andassociates that they are in favor of equaljustice to all and special justice to none,embodies sound demooratic doctrine, and ifit had been strictly adhered to in congressthe past twenty-fve years, the evils ofwhich Howard and others justly complainwould have been averted and the wholecountry would be prosperous and contented.Farmers had been taxed so long for thebenefit of other classes, and seen so munhlegislation for the aggrandizement of cor-norations and syndicates that their pa-ience is exhausted and they are now de-
manding that the very policy whichthey have heretofore announced asunjust and ruinous should be appliedto them, or rather part of them. for noscheme yet suggested would operate alikeupon all farmers. But no evil can be cor-rected by increasing its magnitude and ex-tending its operations. There is but oneeffectual remedy for the evil which un-doubtedly exists and that is to reverse thepolicy which produced it.
The senator, after rehearsing the featuresof the proposed nub-treasury plan, andnoting the fact that farmers themselveswill pay mort than their fair share of;thecost of erecting te wrehouses, and*thatofficers connect -'`ith'tfem will be parti-sans of the adispg Cating'lower. There isnot more than dre•-tpird,• the 2,800 coun-ties in the United States, If that many, thatproduce and sell annually more than $50,-000 worth of agricultural products, and there-fore under the bill not more than one-thirdof them could avail themselves of this plan.At the very outset, therefore, it is a plan tocompel the government to issue and dis-tribute money for the benefit of peopleliving in rich and productive countries atthe expense of the poorer ones. Moreover,it is a plan to enable unscrupulous specu-lators to take advantage of the 'farmers'pecuniary necessities and effect exorbitantprices for food from the people. In a greatmajority of cases, the farmer would neverbe able to redeem deposited products, butwould be forced to lose the remaining 20per cent. of value, or sell his warehousereceipts for whatever he can get for them,which would be very little, for it must beremembered that after he gets his wareb6usereceipts he hasa remaining interest of only20 per cent, less charges for interest, stor-age, etc., and this is all he can dispose. Hewill find the time rapidly approachingwhen he must have money to redeem hisproducts or sell his small remaining inter-est, or allow them to be sold at public auc-tion by the government, and this will bethe golden opportunity of speculators,whose agents will swarm all over thecountry ready to take the receipts from theembarrassed owners for a merely nominalsum.
Senator Carlisle argued at length to showthat the plan proposed would produce anannual expansion and contraction of cur-rency which would result in absolutely de-stroying the market upon which the farmermust depend for the sale of his crops.No such facilities as this projectwill afford for controlling marketsfor purely speculative purposes,says he, have ever existed in this or anyother country and no more perfect systemfor the oppression of the poor could be de-vised. In conclusion, Senator Carlisle saysthat even if it could be conclusively shownthat this or any similar scheme would bepeculiarly beneficial to any particular classof people, he would still be unalterably op-posed to it, because, in his opinion, itwould be another wide and dangerous de-parture from the principles upon which ourpolitical institutions are founded. Itwould, in fact, be the longest step yet takenin time of peace toward the consolidation ofpower in the federal government and thesubjection of the private affairs of the peo-ple to the control of central and irresponsi-ble authority.
The Headsmanu to Retire.WAsnmoroTo, May i.--First Assistant
Postmaster-General Clarkson leaves tomorrow for an extended official tour of thefar west. He will at once proceed to Seat-tle. From that point diverging tours willbe made through Washington and Oregon.Later he will visit San Francisco and otherleading cities and towns in California. Theprime object of his tour is to obtain knowl-edge of the postal needs for the Pacificslope. Clarkson is of the opinion that thefar west is entitled to better facilities andbelieves that a western man acquaintedwith the peculiarities and rapidity of west-ern development is best able to judge ofits postal needs. He will make close in-spection of the service at all important cen-ters and on his return, in about a month orsix weeks, he will make such recommenda-tions as the situation demands. On his return to Washington he will tender to thepresident his resignation, to take effect im-mediately.

CHARGED WITH COLLUSION.
Nerthpra Waeise OaLeab !aie to Saesme In With the Lottery.
MnaPousU, May 8.-The Journalprints a sensational story affecting promi-neat ofelial of the Northern Pacific. Itcharges that on the night of February 4ththe Western Union Telegraph wire was euttwo miles east of Jamestown, N. D., butinvestigation proves that the work wasdone by prominent Northern Paif offi-cials, and two operators, it is supposed, atthe Instanoe of a still higher oofficial who,it is claimed, worked the wire himself inBismarok. At that time a great many tel-egrams, both for and against the Louisianalottery project, were prasing over thewires. The operators side trackedthose unfavorable to the lotteryand rushed the others through. It ischarged they advised the friends of the lot-tery of the oontents of the meesages intend-ed for anti-lottery people, in advance oftheir delivery to those entitled to them.Long petitions and lists of names in favorof the lottery were, it is mid, rushedthrough without charge, while protestsagwinst the lottery were delayed. TheWestern Union made a full investigation ofthe charges, obtaining satisfactory proof oftheir truth.

NEw Yonu, May 81.-A Washington spe-isal says that June 10th a court
martial will convene at Tueson,Aris., for the trial of Capt. AlonsoE. Miltimore, assistant quartermas-ter. The charges are defaulting to the government.

Kimball,chief quartermaster of the. depaitment ofArizona. The quartermasters are chargedwith fraud in having rented a room in theirperional quarters toethe government for 'dsum nearly equal to the amount paid forthe whole house, thus getting their rentpractically free and their regular allowancein addition. The charges against Milti-more are of various fraudulentt ahsactions,such as carrying hi s wife on the pay roll asclerk, his servant as janitor, renting hisproperty fraudulently to the government.Kimbalwill be oharged with neglect ofduty in not discoovering or reporting theseI flagrant oases of fraud under, his admini-
tration.
The Deadly Pie.Omeaoo, May 81.-Night before last the
family of Frank C. Kuhn, a wealthy realestate man, was taken violently ill aftersupper, with symptoms of arsenical poison-ing. The hired man died in a short time,but the doctor did not think the cases ofthe others serious. To-day, however, Mr.Kuhn died, and his wife is in a oriticalcondition to-night. It was at first thoughtthe poison was in a pie bought at a bakery,but a number of pies made at the same timeand sold to families in the neighborhoodproduced no sickness.

It 'after 11 when Shepley entered theRed Ward, of Miles City, was chosenand stated to the contestants upon
enteq~g the ring that they must work ande the-boys. John MoGuie second-
ed Shepley and Harry Harris acted as histipmekeeper, while, T. C.. Donohue, of 8t:Paul,;nd Joe Kenney, of Hory, appearedfor Welsh. The bottle-holders were Hankwhitten toe Shepley and JAlny yWan forWelsh.When time was called for the first round
bthaean sprang lightly to their feet andSheply immediately started in to do hismen., Before the third round closed Welshwe flnded and it was apparent to all thathe no matokfor Shepley. In this roundWels went down repeatedly to avoid pun-ishment and did but little work, whileShepiiy got in good work on Welsh's wind.In th fourth Welsh received severe pan-ishment about the head, Shepley holdinghis hd in chancery and giving six or sevensavage upper cutse that dazed Welsh com-pletely. When the sixth was called Welshavpided Shepley as much as possible butreceived some heavy blows which he wasunable to dodge.
When time on the seventh was calledWelsh came to the scratch blowing heavily.Shepley knocked him down as fast as hewohld arise. A 'h* on Welsh's mouthcaused blood to appo, and when he tookhis seat at the call of time his nose waspeeled. The eighth found was called, butWelsh did not respapd and stated that hecould continue the fight no longer andwould not rna the risk of being killed, ashe hadpo wind left. Shepley was disap-pointaud be d for one more round.and'itd he col then -kneeo WelSh' eout,but it was without avail, as Welsh had hadenough. Shepley was as fresh as at thestart.

The gate receipts were about $250, andall go to the winner.

To Avenge Ferruson's Massmere.MinTs Orm, May 81.-[8pecial.]-Feeling
runs high in this section since the savagemurder of Ferguson. Citizens feel thattheir appeals to the government that theseIndians should be removed should havebeen listened to before a white man's lifebecame the price of filling a Cheyenne'sstomach. These Indians belongin the In-dian Territory, and our members in con-grees will have to see that the pledgesof theparty in power to wipe out thedheyenne agen-cy are fulfilled. Already the ;owboys in thesoia=w1 tern part of tha coup ' itaayhemselvae, a the 2fe ibo•• w '
Oheyennes can be imagined. The wholecounty feels that the cold'blooded murdermust be avenged.
Killed in a Stamp Mill.MAssvnraz, May 81.-Lhpecial.]-John

For Governor of Alabama.MosTooxaar, Ala., May 81.-The demo-
cratic convention met this morning. Bal-loting commenced, with all candidates, but.there had been an agreement that all anti.Kalb forces would support Col. Thomas G.Jones for governor. The roll of countiescommenced and every vote, not for Kalb,was cast for Jones. The result was notannounced, as Kalb's friends withdrew hisname and moved Jones' nomination byacclamation. Everybody went wild, andthe convention had to suspend proceedings.Kalb pledges himself to support the nomi-nation.
The platform adopted reaffirms allieganceto the principles of the democratic party aspromulgated by Jefferson, defended byJackson and maintained by Grover Cleve-land. It holds that any interference on thepart of the government in the selection ofsenatore ad representatives in congress isa usurpation of power unwarranted by theconstitution. Unalterable opposition to thepresent high tariff is declared and a liberaland thorough system of public schools fa-vored. It further declares that the welfareof the entire people of the state, withoutregard to race or color, depends on the con-tinued administration of public affairs bythe democratic party, which alone com-bines the intelligence, experience and vir-tue necessary to perpetuate the blessings offree government, and that the continuationin power of that party is the highest dutyof all white men.
More Mormons Coming.Nw Yosu, May 81.-Leading lights of
the Mormon church are in a state of anx-iety over the question of the admittance ofa thousand or more converts who will arrivenext week. Elder Cannon and others hada long conference to-day with the contractlabor inspecotors and assured the officialsthat no Mormons are imported under con-tract. All come on purel religious groundsand no effort is ever made by the church tohave them come here otherwise. Aftermuch talk it was decided not to detain anybut to take full memoranda and afterwardsshould investigation disclose any contractcase the people could be easily reached.The elders were pleased at the result of theconference.

No Rest
Diseasslag Abrlean Boundaries With Zag-Iaad-Btsmarek Ixplalas His "Blood
amd Iron" Epipram.
[Opyrikht. 15, by New York Associate Proe.)Bmaams, May 81.-Emperor William to.
day is able, for the first time ince last Sun-day's accident, to hobble about his room ona crutch. Several of the smaller bones ofthe ankle were broken and the whole leg Ircontuued. The doctors insist on his takinglonger rest. Throughout the week the am-peror has kept his secretaries and mihistereactively at work. He was displeased at thedelays in the negotiations with Englandregarding Africa, and'took entire control ofthe matter. After several conferees,with the British ambassador and hiadsof the colonial department proposalawere fixed upon whieh, it is thouht, willrove acceptable to Lord Salisbury.
Befly, they are that the German shoreshall extend to the limits of the CongoFree State from the northern extrety ofTnth~ejek to AlbertNy eanmt that Ugandaand British Unvoro shall benetrakl grond,I and that navngation of the lakes shill befree. The Britiah ambassador ev=rMetithought these good enough to Justify aresumption of the discussion, as he has mteaIled the Saliebo envoy. The matterwill be reopened. A long struggle is -Speted over the matter.
Major Wiseman comes about Juose 8 andDr. Peters early in July, each loaded withfacts and reasons in support of the Germanclaim. The minor state of siege ends inLeipeio on J~ne s, and if te ornmentdoes not renew it the fact will na thedetermination of the authorit to ceasespel soalist enatments throughout
y. According to thesocialist Yolks-blatt, the Saxon government has asked thebunderath to prolong the law. The de-mand has aroused the emperor, who desiresto place before the bundeerath data in sumpport of the non-renewal of the' meas.ure. The offoial tendency here now isin accordance with the emperor's desire togive the soeialists "free breath." The bun-desrath's assent to a permit for the socialistlaw to expire is doubtful. The HamburgerNaohrichten predicts inevitable inmarreo-tion when restraints on the proletariat areremoved. The Naohrichten doubtless re-fI leets Biesmarek's opinion, which continuesto influence members of the bundeerath.
Bthmismarck,in aspeehto the delegates ofthe polytehnic acsdemy who presented himwith an address, reminded them of thevalue of the idea of unity permeating Ger-many. People who ascribed to him thephrase that unity could only be establishedby blood and iron misunderstood his saying. What he meant was that the king at
.sI.e o mrtunately, Germany had got pastthat now, and the greatest fortune for thecountry was peace. He did not believe aGerman emperor would ever look upon amap with Napoleonia lust of conquest inhis heart.
The ceremony of placing the last stoneof the spire of the Ulm cathedral tookplace to-day amid the ringing of bells andreneral rejoiing. It is 1180 feet high, thehighest in the world.
PARNELL'S REASONS.
Why He is Opposea to the Balfour LandPurehase Bill.
New Yoax, May 81.-The American Re-view has an article by Parnell stating thatthe Irish party's objection to Balfour'sIrish land purchase bill eharaoterises themeasure as "insufficient and dishonest." Itis insufficient because it would not reachmore than one out of every four Irish ten-ants, and then there would be many in thefavored minority who have no right orclaim to enjoy the benefits of land pnrehasedat the expense of the tate. It would take up.wards of 106,000,000 to enable all Irishtenants entitled to do so to become ownersof their holding. The state would neveradvance the vast sum neoessary for the pur-pose, as every one concedes that 88,000000is the utmost sum British taxpayers can heinduced to guarantee.
The Irish party hold therefore, that theland act of 1881 shoul frst be so amendedas to secure tenants' improvements fromthe inliction of rent. Great abuses haveattended the working of the land purehasemeasure, the resources are being scandal.ously misspent, while the question is leftunsolved.
