A leading Republican of Chester coun-

The Farmers’ League of Indiana coun-
ty, composed largely of Republicans, has

“Will you do all in your

the will of M. 8S, Quay in electing J. D.
Cameron or any corporation ianyer for
United States senator?” The other ques
tions request of candidates to state wheth-
er or not they will enforce the constitn-
tion against corporations; do all they can
to advance farmers’ and laborers’ inter
ests; establish an equitable system of
taxation; work for the Australian system
of voting; let bribery and intimidation be
dealt with as treason, and do all in their
power to reduce high official salaries and
to abolish the store-order system, It

In the senate on Monday Senator Sher-
man presented the following which he
said he would offer as an amendment to
the McKinley tariff bill at the proper
time.
That whenever it shall be certified to
the president of the United States that
the government of the Dominion of Cane
ada shall by Jaw or regulation, admit free
of duty into all its poris coal mined in
the United States he shall make pro.
clamation of that fact, and thereafter,
while such law or regulation is in force,
coal mined in the Dominion of Canadas
shail be admitted free of duty into all
the poris of United States. And when*
ever it shall be duly certified to the
president of the United states that the
government of the Dominion of Canada
has declared a desire to enter into such
commercial arrangements with the Uni.
ted States as will result in the complete
or partial removal of daties upon trade
between Canada and the United States,
he shall appoint three commissioners, to
meet those who may be designated to
represent the government of Canada, to
consider the best method of extending
the trade relations between Canada and
the United Btates and to ascertain on
what terms greater freedom of inter-
course between the two countries can
best be secured, and said commissioners
shall report to the president, who shall
lay the report before congress.
It is very evident that Senator Sher-
man’s purpose isto head off Secretary
Blaice, for his reciprocity scheme is
more sweeping in its character than that
proposed by the secretary of state, Next

can demanding absolute free trade bes

The Pops is healthy and vigorous to a
remarkable degree considering his ad-
vanced age. His Holiness, however,
seems to be much worried because of the
steady diminution of the ‘Peter's Pence”
contributions. The amount of these
voluntary oLerings being a species of
barometer, indicating the condition of
the Church universal at any given time
the marked falling off now exhibited
does not fail to reosive the anxious atten-
tion of the head of the Church.
His advisers endeavor to account for
the situation on the theory of the pover-
ty of the masses rather than on that of
their diminishing zeal for the welfare of
the Pontiff, but this explanation affords
bat cold comfort.
The decrease of revenue has become so
marked that his Holiness has found it

The Southern Alliances.
The Republican papers are claiming
that by the inroads made on the South-
ern Democratic vote by the Farmers’ alli-
ance there will pe a falling off in Dem-
ocratic congressmen from the South, to)
the great advantage of Republicans in|
organizing the next congress. This is
rather a surface view, nor does it take

likely some of them will be elected in
Republican districts, The fact is & two-
edged sword, and promises tu cut every
to tell which of the two great parties is
hardest hit, It claims it will hold the
balance of power in the next congress,
important exception the alliance is much
more in harmony with Democratic senti
ment than Republican; hence in
of the States it has
trolled the nominatiovs of Demoeratic
conventions. In the South the alliance
is dead against the force bill, and equally
pronounced for tariff reform. In the
North, and notably in all States west of
Pennsylvania, the alliance takes the
Democratic position on the tariff, and we
do not hear that it has declared itself one
way or the other on the force bill.
Oa one question, however, the Demo.
cratic party can have no lot or part with
the alliance, and that is its ridiculous
sub-treasury scheme, TO POSES
that the government shall provide wares
houses for storing the least perishable
products of the farm and shall jissuéd to
