The Russian Riots.
The riots in Caucasia, the most south
ern state of Russia, last week, which
resulted in the destruction of the oil re
finf ries and other property in and about
the city of Baku, to an estimated value
of ninety millions, are a puzzle to
A m«rir»n« as they were not caused by
the war.
The reports state that the Armenians
and Tartars were fighting, and that the
Tartars had been reinforced by the
Kurds, another wild tribe, from the
borders of Persia; also that it was the
Tartars who set fire to the oil properties
on account of excessive tax rates.
The Armenians occupy an elevated
plateau, bounded on the north by the
Caucasus mountains and on the south
by another range, of which Mt. Ararat
is one—a well watered and beautiful
country. They are farmers and Chris
tians, though their church is connected
with neither the Greek nor Roman
1 Catholic churches.
_ On the other hand the Tartars and
Kurds. who probaby came west with
the Mongor Chief, Jenghiz Khan, and
his horde of cut-throats in the early
part of the 13th century, or about seven
hundred years ago. adhere to the
Moslem or Mohammedan religion, and
it is more than probable that religions
' differences are the source of the trouble.
Bat be that as it may it is a sad blow to
the Russian oil industry and comes at
• time when Russia can ill afford it.
Jenghiz Kahn began his career in
Mongolia, to the north of Chiua, con
quering all the neighboring tribes and
also northern China, and then gather
ing together a tremendous army or
horde of desperadoes, began his wonder
ful march westward, which ended at
the Dneiper river in Russia, several
thousand miles from where he started
Their plan was to capture a city, kill
the men, take possession of the women
and property, stay for a time and then
move on, or if the place offered too
atubbom a resistance to kill men, wo
men and children and then burn it.
The civilization of Persia was almost
wiped out of existence by- them.
Jenghiz was succeeded by his son who
penetrated into Poland and Bulgaria,
panning the same course as his father,
both leaving a path of destruction and
misery nnequaled in human annals.
Peace or "War Notes.
Neither of the governments directly
interested has, as yet, ratified the treaty
of Portsmouth, though there is no doubt
of their doing so as soon as the rioting
io Japzn is brought to an end.
The disappointment of the Japanese
' ' OTer treaty 86611,8 to b® intense 1 —
mass meetings regarding it have been
held and protests sent to the govern
ment; rioters tore down Marquis Ito's
statue, burned some churches and other
pwpeity of foreigners, assaulted a party
of Americans, and otherwise so misbe
haved themselves as to cause martial
law to be proclaimed in the Capital.
The army, too, is dissatisfied; and as
there are two factions or breeds of
. people in Japan the affair may affect
the government.
In Manchuria there has been some
skirmishing, bat the generals are ar
ranging an armistice. f
The Rassian peace envoys sailed from
New York for home, Tuesday, but the
f... Japanese are yet in this country.

One by one the things that J. Edward
| Addricks has cherished are falling away
from him First, his model dairy farm
was attached, and then his yacht; bat
he can console himself, as did the good
old Baptist lady, who said they had rob
bed her of the doctrines of election and
eternal damnation, but she would stick
to her total depravity as long as Bhe
lived. —Boston Transcript.
Illinois, following the example of
most Southern States, will hereafter
nominate her United States Senators by
the popular vote at a state primary
election. This is the next thing to a di
rect election by the people, and is prac
tically the same. This system should
be adopted generally. A Senator thus
nominated not only feels more closely
drawn to his state and his people, but
he becomes better acquainted with both
and is more competent to properly rep
resent them. The danger to a Republic
is that the professional politicians shall
rale and that public interest be sub
ordinated to personal ambition and
cupidity. This can be prevented only
by increasing the power of the people.
W. L. DOUGLAS, the #3 shoe man,
who is serving his first term as Gov
ernor of Massachusetts, is being impor
tuned by his friends to become a candi
date for re-election, but obstinately
shakes his bead. "I am a shoemaker,
not a statesman." he insists.
THE duties of the County Surveyor
ought to be enlarged and his title
changed to County Engineer. Instead
otmerely running lines, he should have
supervision over the construction of
county bridges. Many expensive mis
takes could thus be avoided that would
mach more than offset any reasonable
increase in his salary. Work of this
character should be in the hands "of a
professional engineer.
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S phenome
nal popularity is not due to the fact
that he performs faithfully his Consti
tutional obligations as Chief Executive,
bat is accounted for by his enormous
activity on the outside. It is not his
\ daty as President to preach the doc
trines of good-citizenship or to bring
warring nations into the embrace of
friendship, or settle labor disputes. But
it is because he does these things that
he has become the idol of a great na
tion. It is the plus in a man that makes
Hm great.
V
I
State Primary Election.
Virginia had a state primary election
recently by which all candidates, from
United States Senator and Governor
down to the smallest county office, were
nominated on the same day. A number
of other states have the same system,
and Pennsylvania should have it by all
means. It does not suit the profession
al politician, because it puts him out of
business to a large extent and puts the
power where it ought to be, in the
hands of the people. But where party
loyalty is regarded as a virtue and ma
jority rule a cardinal principle of re
publican government, the voters should
have a free and open hand in the selec
tion of their candidates. By this means
they are enabled to carry out the idea
of "a government of the people, for the
people and by the people.
It is well-known that nominations,
even for representative offices, are made
the subject of barter and dicker by
State leaders, and that the object is to
strengthen the position of the leaders
and make them supreme, rather than to
secure the best service for the people.
With a proper primary election law the
voters would have these matters in
their own hands, as they should have,
and the real fountain of authority would
be the ballot-box.
By the system of slate-making which
prevails in many states the form of
popular government is preserved with
out its substance. We have a beauro
cracy instead of a demcx racy, and many
people do not seem to appreciate the
difference, although the distinction is as
great as that between tyranny and
liberty.
The people should insist upon having
a voice in the selection of all the offici
als who are elected to serve them, and
there is no other way than by making
all nominations by the popular vote -

Mr. Palmer, head of the government

THE great bridge over the gorge of
Zambesi river in Africa, just below the
Victoria Falls, has been completed, and
was opened, Tuesday. It is the highest

srorge, and it is an important link of the
Cape to Cairo railroad.
THE whole of southern Italy was
shaken by a severe earthquake, last Fri
day. A number of small towns were
destroyed and thousands of people are
reported killed and injured. The most
disastrous earthquake on record is that
that of Nov. 1, 1755, by which 60,000
people of Lisbon and vicinity lost their
lives.
ON Sunday night a mysterious fire
orignated on Japan's most famous
battleship—the Mikasa, Togo's flag-ship
—while she was laying at anchor in the
harbor of Sasebo. The fire spread
rapidly, and reached the after maga
zine, when an explosion followed that
killed and wounded about six hundred
men, and sent the ship to the bottom
of the harbor.
JOHANN HOCH, the "Bluebeard" un
der sentence of death at Chicago, may
be considered an expert on the marry
ing question. He has given out an in
terview in which he said that all women
not married wish to be. That all wo
men wish to marry well, but to be
married anyhow. Then he adds what
is very probably a much overlooked
fact: That the man of brains and phys
ical attractions is not the most success
ful with women, but the man who is
sympathetic and attentive. Hoch has
not been a very sincere wocer, but he
seems to have caught the vital essentials
of success in winning the affections of
the ladies.
AN act of the last Legislature of New
York which is directed against the
practice of corrupting purchasing agents
whether they be the maid servant whom
the grocer gives a bonus in return for
her mistress' trade or the agent of a
great commercial house whose patronage
may mean thousands of dollars a year
to the manufacturer who gets it, went
into effect last Friday. This law makes
it a misdemeader punishable by a fine
of |lO to |SOO or by both the fine and a
year's imprisonment to give, offer or
promise an agent, employe or servant
any gift or gratuity whatever without
the knowledge and consent of the prin
cipal, employer or master of such aisent
employe or servant with intent to in
fluence his action in relation to his prin
cipals, employers or masters' business.
The penalty also applies to agents who
request or accept gifts or commissions
for this purpose.
LAWRENCE Brown, an inspector for
the Department of the Interior, whote
ha sty marriage to Miss Florence Har
graves of Colorado Springs, a chorus
girl, caused a sensation at the Oklahoma
capital, has been dismissed from the
service by order of President Roosevelt
and a quasi-public notice given that
marriages on one day's acquaintance
are not looked upon with favor by the
Interior Department. When Mr. Brown
and his wife reached Muskogee Indian
Ter., last Saturday, the former was
summoned to the office of Inspector J.
George Wright and notified that his
resignation had been called for by order
of the President.
THE Baltimore San contains a report
of a couple of naturalization incidents
in one of the courts of that city that is
instructive and illuminative. Robert
Blumberg, a German, was desirous of
becoming a citizen of the United States
He could not answer the questions of
the iudge as to what is the form of the
government of this countrj. When
asked if he was aware that this is a re
public, his reply was: "The only thing
that I know is that lam a good Demo
crat." The other applicant was an
Italian, named Vincent Galli. He went
through the quizzing school all right
until one of his witnesses was asked if
Galli was an anarchist. "He is-sa sura
dat," responded the witness. "He is
good anarchsta." The Judge dismissed
both the Italian and the German, and
thus two potential citizens were lost to
the Nation.

BISHOP POTTER S gin-dispensing eei
tre of moral and spiritual culture, the
Subway Tavern we believe it is called
will hereafter be known as the commcn
kind of a saloon. No more doxologies
or special forms of prayer will be used
in it: the soda fountain intended to lure
women where they could get beer in
qniet respectability has been taken
away. The air of sacred peace has dis
appeared and the saloon is now a saloon
without a Bishop. It is just as well.
There has never been a reasonable ex
cuse to mix gin and beer with exhorta
tions to deny the temptings of the flesh,
and the fact that the scheme failed to
pay dividends shows that the American
people prefer to keep their drinking
and devotions separate.
EASTERN AGRICULTURE
ltbnde Inland Farm* All Right—Farm
rra \ft<l More Faith.
It is much as W. A. Peckham of Lit
tle Compton said: "The Rhode Island
farms are all right. The trouble is with
the farmers. We haven't the men who
will devote their time and best ener
gies to agriculture. They will not
study the conditions and go Into the
business on businesslike principles.
And right here I would like to cay a
word in favor of the short farmers'
course which was Inaugurated a few
years ago at the state college at Kings
ton. I attended the twelve weeks'
farming course and never before re
ceived so much good for the time and
money expended. The Insight I got
into the why and wherefore of things
has proved very valuable to me In my
farming operations, to say nothing
about the acquaintances I formed dur
ing my stay at the college and the fund
of inspiration I carried away.
"Last season I made a profit of S3OO
from one acre of potatoes and sowed
the same land to beets and harvested
S3OO profit on that, making S6OO for
one acre of land. Many vegetable gar
deners will beat that record, but that
Is trucking and mine is farming, which
are two different propositions. I usu
ally have fifteen acres of cabbage t
hauling the crop to a market twelve
miles distant."
Abandoned Farm*.
A talk with John G. Clark, secretary
of the state board of agriculture, elicit
ed the fact that plans are under way
to promote agriculture still more In the
state. However, lack of funds Is "the
great drawback, and Mr. Clark Is not
especially sanguine as to how his prop
osition will be received. He wishes tq
get out another catalogue of abando
farms. The last number issued *
In 1900, the editions of which have' ig
since been used. His idea is to revise
the list and supply the many demands
which reach the office along this line.
lie also says he has in mind a cata
logue, or directory, of the various
breeds of live stock, plants, etc., In the
state. He often has calls for some
thing of this character and believes
that it would be money well invested
in the way of advertising the state and
getting parties interested in Rhode Is
land agriculture. Nothing definite as
to the abandoned farm catalogue, or
directory, has yet been consummated.

Local Pride.
One of the most hopeful and signifi
cant indications concerning the possi
bility of any state or locality la the
local pride of Its people. Without much
regard to the productivity of the soil
or the wealth of the people you are
Informed of the peculiar fitness of this
or thut locality as an abiding place
for man. This Is more nearly true In
the west than In the east. But eastern
people are beginning to wake up to the
fact that their lands are cheap and,
furthermore, a good investment. When
cases like this come to your attention
It makes for most hopeful consldera- j
tion, says a National Stockman cor- j
respondent. A man told me at Belle
ville, N. Y., recently that a small farm
with 1,000 hens had netted for the use
of the farm and his labor last year
$1,400. It makes one feel that things
In New York are changing.
Cucumber* For Pickle*.
Intense cultivation, which means sys
tematic cultivation. Is profitable, as the
yield is from 300,000 to 400,000 per
acre. They usually bring $1.50 per
1,000. The past two years they have
brought double that. To get SOOO from
an acre one must work. He can afford
to. A man must go over his fields of
cucumbers early every morning, re
gardless of the weather, or some will
get too large. But, more than that, If
they grow too large and begin to turn
whitish or yellow the plants will think
the object of reproduction has been ac
complished and will cease bearing. On
the other hand, if the cucumbers are
kept constantly cut when small the'
vines will continue to bear for a longer
period.—American Agriculturist.
Mosquito and Fly Pests.
A barrel of stagnant water anywhere
on the promises or a half open cistern
under the barn will breed swarms of
mosquitoes--Indeed, so many as to
make outdoor life on these summer
mornings and evenings anything but a
pleasure, remarks an exchange. And a
heap of manure accumulating In the
rear of the stables and otherwise un
disturbed will send forth flies enough
to make things very uncomfortable In
side the house If you let them In. They
are bound to come In.
The Leak lii Cotton Crop Report*.
As a result of Secretary Wilson's
Investigation to locate the leak In the
cotton crop reports, Associate Statisti
cian Edwin S. Holmes has been dis
missed from service in the department
of agriculture.
GARDEN HINTS
Many Jersey farmers havo given up
eggplants because they fall to get
good, healthy growth. With many the
plants begin to die as soon as they are
set out and keep dying through the
season.
Some gardeners grow an early pea
;rop between tonyjtoes, cantaloupes,
melons, corn, etc., as much to protect
them us for the profit in the crop Itself.
Latest celery may still be set and the
entire crop handled as the plants be
conio large enough.
Professor Green of Minnesota says
if plants are going to make good onions
they will become weak in the neck Just
above the bulb when nearly grown
and will fall flat on the ground, where
they should be allowed to lie until the
roots and tops are entirely dried. Then
the btillw can be easily pulled out.
