The potato, not wheat, says an ex

The principal F.uropenn countries that
produced close upon three billion bush
els of potatoes in ls'.'o raised two bill-

cousumation of potatoes. In Ameri
ca this condition is reversed, the jiotato
crop is averaging only 3:1 to oO per cent.
tif the amount of wheat. Vet notatoi-s
now bring more money jmt bushel than
wheat, and yield live or eight times, as
many bushels per acre. The average
yield kt acre for the live crops lS'.iO 4
was of potatoes t.7 bushels and of wheat
1:5 bushels, while the Hecember farm
price has averaged iOc and k'. respect
ively. Potatoes are worth fully as much
for this jicriod as during alike period l."
years ago, while wheat has declined over
'ill jer cent., cotton quite as much, wool
even more. The conclusion is irresi.-t-ble
that the potato may Ik- more exten
sively grown than at present and still be
more profitable than many other staple
crops. It has leen one of the lest mon
ey crops for the Colorado farmer for
many years. This fact will be quickly
grasjied by farmers trenerally, ami the
new year is likely to witness a boom in
jiotato growing.

buildings went throuuh the house

rigiits declares that all men are born
equally free and independent and that
the have inherent and indefeasible
right to acquire and posstss property
and to pursue their own happiness.
Tiie right to make a living by carrying
a hod in the construction of a public
building would seem to be covered by
this broad declaration; but if this sapi
ent legislature is to have its way, the
h h! carrier must show a register of his
nativity or a certificate of naturalization.
Such narrowness, such craven crawl
ing in the dirt before the threat of a
new political fanaticism, must till the
minds of ail true, manly Americans
w ith a deep disgust. Was there ever U'
fore a legislature in Pennsylvania in
which such a proposition could have
U'eu cast?

It doesn't require min-h foundation to

taking the secretary away fm a rest, in
order that he might get a chance to re

no difference in opinion between tiie
president and Secretary (iresham, and
th' latter has had no idea of resigning
in the immediate future, although Mrs.

has, it is said, exacted a promise of him
that he will resign next winter if his

A Vicious Carpet.

1 singular accident yesterday. Mrs. '
Applchee i.- a very small woman, weigh
ing not more than ninety pounds, and
was engaged in beating the dust out of
a heavy brussels carpet, which she had
hung on a clothesline. A strong wind
was blowing at the time, and swayed the
carpet to ami fro. Filially a blast more i
powerful than the rest lifted the carpet j
out of her reach. Hie knew it hail to
come back. Spitting on her hands and I
grasping the beat r firmly, the little wo- I
man waited for It.
It came with a rush. She sprang
from the ground, and gave it a powerful j
swipe, but she might as well have tried j
to st p a locomotive. Thecarpet caught, 1
rolled her up and shot her against a '
fence with a crack like a whip lash. An
hour afterward, when the doctor brought '
1
her to, he said the only serious injury ;
she had was the ugly scalp wound on the j
hack of her head, and tiiat her bro 1
ken leg and sprained wrist would keep!
her from doing any more house-cleaning '
this spring. j
A Political Scandal.
Wheeling, W. Va., April 7. John
Howell, the Republican Sheriff of Har
bour county, has resigned, and inquiry
as to why this extraordinary step was ta
ken develop! a remarkable situation.
The county is usually Democratic, but
(i. M. Right, a leading Republican,
thought la.-t fall he could elect a Repub
lican. He accordingly made a deal with
Howell by ivhich Howell if elected was
to ace pt l'.oio in lieu of all the emol
uments of the otlice, which profits were
to go to Right. The latter was to fur
nish bondsmen for Howell, as the real
sheriff, but Right was t,, rlln the office.
After the election Right procured the
bondsmen for Howell, but Howell insist
ed on being sheriff unless ni 0 in cash
was paid him. Right objected, but of
fered notes. Afn-r thi-i-- month.- of
wrangling Right yc-tcrday withdrew
Howell's bondsmen, and Howell being
unable to obtain others, resigned and
the facts came out.

Japan requires, he says, that China
shall allow the unhampered importation

establishing and management of manu

herself, moreover, to open to the vessels
of all nations the Yangtse River as far

far as Ouchu, the Wusung River and

China must remove permanently the

sufficient for large vessels.
Japan emphasizes the fact that she
does not d-sire for herself commercial
advantages that are not extended to the
other treaty powers.
