President Cleveland Listens to the
Views of an Able Democrat.
SILVER as primary money.
Representative Livlnc.t.m Save the People
Want an Increase In the Circulation
of Silver Money—Senator Palm,
er Gives Ills Vloiv.
Washington, May 20.—Within the
past week the president has listened to
a,lon" “nd exceedingly earnest discus-
sion respecting the so-called campaign
of education on the money question,
the views presented were those of a
democrat of ability and distinction.
Ibis gentleman, while friendly to sil-
ver, does not believe that the United
States could afford alone to enter upon
a policy of free coinage. At the same
time he realizes that there is a strong
sentiment in the country in favor of
sucli a policy, and he advises that this
be challenged in a very radically differ-
ent form from that upon which the ad-
vocates of the opposing policy have in
the president’s name set out lie be-
lieves a campaign of education to be
necessary, but he insists that it must
be a campaign of education and not
one of ridicule and abuse. The presi-
dent was reminded that the question
is of such magnitude and of a nature
so complex that men of the highest in-
telligence and integrity may divide on
it without incurring thereby charges
as to their motives. It is considered a
safe guess that a compromise of some
kind will in the end be adopted.
Silver us Primary Money.
Washington, May 26.—Representa-
tive Livingston, of Georgia, is in Wash-
ington to look after the interests of
some of his constituents. Speaking of
the situation in Georgia he said yester-
day: “If a vote were taken in Georgia
on the silver question now and party
lines were wiped out, there would be
100,000 majority for silver. The people
are almost unanimous for silver, and
they propose to influence the next
democratic national convention to
adopt a plank making silver primary
money. I don’t mean by this that
Georgia wants free silver. I don't
think the people want anything of the
kind. They simply want an increase
in our per capita circulation so that
we will have primary money of an
amount about equal to twice the quan- I
titv of gold now in circulation. There '
are to-day 84,000,000,000 of gold in the
world. We think the money of the
world should be about double that
amount. Gold in the United States at
present amounts to 8000,000,000. We
want enough silver recognized as pri-
mary money, so that our circulation
will amount to SI,200,000,000. The man-
ner in which the people of Georgia pro-
pose to contest this question is to in-
fluence the next convention in favor of
this enlargement of the currency.
There is no probability that Georgia
democrats will split from the party.”
Senator Palmer Gives Ills Views.
Washington. May 20.—Senator Palm-
er, of Illinois, is still in Washington,
and still giving his opinions freely of
men and things. “Mr. Carlisle stands
a better chance of being the democratic
candidate for the presidency than any
other man. His discussions of money
questions are wonderfully simple and
clear, and he has made himself the
great leader of this movement in favor
of honest money." These were the
words of Senator Palmer yesterday. He j
believes that the next democratic rnn- !
ANTIQUITY Of- IHL JOKE.
j A Systematic Study to lie Made of the
Humor of Egypt.
The avowed intention of M. Ollivier
Ilenuregard, the eminent Egyptologist,
to publish a few of the mummified jokes
of that ancient Empire of the Nile has
necessarily overwhelmed the great host
of modern humorists with consterna-
tion, says the Philadelphia lioeord.
Egypt has been claimed ns the great
mother of almost everything else, save
for u baby's share which has been
allotted to I la by Ion ia; and it is to be
dreaded that the true antiquity of the
joke will be revealed among the other
awful secrets of the tombs of the
1 haraohs. .Solomon’s maxim that there
is nothing now under the sun has long
been an accepted dictum, even among
tbe joke-makers; and no less a person-
age than Mark Twain has reduced the
joke germs or, rather, joke elements—
to seven Aryan ancestors. What these
seven jokes of the Seven Foolish Men
of ancient days were it may only be
conjectured; but,undoubtedly, the wom-
an’s age, woman’s tongue and the
mother-in-law jokes were among them,
and were cracked by our rude ances-
tors in the old cave dw ellings of early
Ncanthropio times with infinite gusto.
The young-iuan-who-stays-late and the
old-man’s-boot may have been later ac-
cretions. Certainly the young house-
keeper and the man-who-never-pays-
liaek witticisms do not date much later
than the days of Noah.
I he spring poet first appeared on the
scene in the days of old King Sargon,
who founded the royal library of As-
syria and culled for competitive odes.
Tlie oflieo goat is a purely modern ver-
sion. The summer girl and the chap-
pie have a latter-day look; but their an-
tetypes can be discovered in the pages
of the Greek Theophrastus and the Ho-
man Petronius: The Nouveaux Ulches.se
figure in that latter nmianecr’scharacter
of Trimulchio. As for the pun. that is
undoubtedly a relic of antediluvian
jocosity; and it is not impossible to itn-
ngine the wicked old Nephelim asking
one another, as they stood around and
laughed at Noah building the ark:
“".hen is a door not a door?” and
“Where was Moses when the light went
out?”
It is distressing to realize these facts
in tiie ease; but what a harrowing situ-
ation will ensue if M. Ilenuregard shall
discover the one original, primitive
protoplasmic joke globule, the father
of all these nineteenth century joke-
lets! Imagine the literary scientists
placing this Akkadian joke under the
microscope and inviting the world
to gaze upon the great and only
“Jokiensis Eozoen!” The modern joker
could not survive such a pitiless expose.
IIis occupation, like Othello’s, would be
{’“one forever.

believes that the next democratic con-
vention will depend on a sound money
man, and he sees no one with better
prospects for success at that time than
the secretary of the treasury, who is
now making1 a record on financial mat-
ters. Senator Palmer also believes
thut Mr. Dupont’s seat in the senate
will be contested. “The democrats
will contend,” he said, “that under
the laws of Delaware a senator called
to till the governor’s chair through the
death or resignation of the official, re-
tains his vote in the senate. If this
contention is sustained the governor
of Delaware will appoint Senator Hig-
gins’ successor, who will be seated to
remain until the legislature at its next
session elects a successor.”
OSCAIt WILDE CONVICTED.
Found Guilty m (barged and Sentenced
to Two Years at llurd Labor.
London,May 26.—When Oscar Wilde’s
trial in the Old Dailey was resumed to- ,
day before a crowd which completely
filled the courtroom, .Sir Prank Lock-
wood, the solicitor-general, concluded !
his address to the jury, which he had I
just beg-un when court adjourned yes- I
terday. It was a bitter excoriation of
Wilde. Justice Wills began summing j
up at 1:30 o’clock. The general tenor j
of his address to the jury was fa- 1
vorable to Wilde. The jury retired at
3:30 o’clock and four hours later re-
turned a verdict of guilty. Sentence
of two years’ imprisonment was im-
posed. Alfred Taylor, Wilde’s asso-
ciate, was also sentenced to two years’
imprisonment Doth tho terms arc Jto
be worked out at hard labor.
Gen. J. II. Hawley Dead.
Hot Springs, S. I)., May 20.— Gen. J.
D. Hawley, genernl counselor of the
Northwestern railroad, died suddenly
yesterday afternoon of paralysis of the
heart He had just partaken of a
hearty dinner with his wife and
daughter, and was feeding1 as well as
usual, when he suddenly fell back-
wards in his chair and exclaimed: "My
God,” and expired. The body will bo
taken to Omaha to-dav. Mr. Hawlov
at one time occupied the position of
first assistant to tho secretary of tho
treasury, John Sherman.
As Eastern States Lose by Western ltlvul-
| ry They Gain In Other Directions.
Emerson’s law of compensation works
in every department of human life.
I Every evil lias its compensating good,
tiie sage of Concord maintained, and
J for every good tiling a compensating
price must be paid in labor or suffer-
| iug. Just now, says the Northwest
j Magazine, tiie wheat farmers of the
i northwest are discouraged at the long
continuance of low prices for their
i grain and tiie discouraging outlook
| ahead. Yet from this period of low
J prices there will undoubtedly come in
i time much benefit to the community at
large and to the farmers themselves in
; the diversifying of agrieultural prod-
J nets. The whole country west of tho
: Alleghenies was settled originally on
I the basis of wheat farming as the chief
and almost only money-producing in-
dustry. Beginning with the Genesee
valley in western New York, tho
wheat growers pushed westward into
Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois.
The tide of settlement which Inter
turned northward into \\ isconsiu and
crossed the Mississippi into Iowa and
Missouri gave all its energies at first
to the production of wheat. Still
later Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas and
tile Dakotas were occupied by the
wheat farmers, and they made their
wayoorossthe plains and around by
the Isthmus of l’anama to the vallevs
of California, Oregon and Washington.
Hut as the wheat fields advanced west-
ward the older wheat regions constant-
ly reduced their acreage of this grain
and their farmers turned to other crops.
In later years southern \\ isconsiu and
southern Minnesota and all Iowa,
where formerly wheat was the great
| staple crop, have gone into dairying
| and stock raising with very satisfactory
j results in the increase of population
j and wealth and in the elevation of the
condition of tho tillers of the soil. Tho
! same change will come about in north-
ern Minnesota, in the two Dakotas, in
Manitoba and in the valleys of Oregon
and Washington. Less wheat will he
raised and the soil will yield a much
greater money return per acre when
more labor is applied to it and products
are more diversified. Wo do not mean tc
say that wheat growing is to he aban-
doned. It has not been given up in
Ohio, or in Pennsylvania, or in New
\ ork, but it will become only one farm
industry among many. After the
change has come about our vast prairie
country will be found to be much morn
prosperous under the regime of diversi-
fied agriculture than it could possibly
have become with wheat as its only
market crop, even if the old high prices
could again prevail.
l.nthuAla.ni ,if the Japanese for Hattie
uml ignorant.* „f n,,, , nine** Con-
cerning It, Progress—Prob-
able After ICITcctl.
Tiie American board of foreign mis-
sions representing the Congregational
church, has secured the opinion of
ltev. Henry Blodgett, I). D., of Pekin,
who has spent forty years in the serv-
ice of tiie board and thirty years in j
1 ekin, anti who is now in this country. ’
Dr. Blodgett has responded to the re-
quest of the board as follows:
“Among the common people of China j
little is known regarding tho causes of |
the war or tiie facts occurring in it-
progress, and the wildest and most ah- i
surd rumors are afloat. In Japan every-
thing is published, ami their cities and
towns are illuminated at every victory
over tiie Chinese. In consequence,
partly, of this, the most intense enthusi-
asm for the war prevails, even the boys
and girls in their sehools practicing
military drill. ’On to Pekin’was the
cry everywhere as we passed through
tiie country. The treaty powers desire
peace aud will use their influence
to secure it. China is ready for
peace, even on humilitating terms.
Japan may consent to give up
the march on Pekin and grant terms
of peace such as can he accepted. Yet
these terms may be somewhat difficult
to find. They involve the interests of
European powers, as well as those of
Chinn and Japan. The great Siberian
railway will be finished in a few years.
"111 Russia be satisfied to have Vladivo-
stoek, a port which is closed by ice four
months each year, as the terminus of
this railway on the seaboard? Will she
not wish for her transcontinental rail-
way a port farther south which isopen
all the year; that is to say, a port of
Korea. Dut such a port would make
Kussia a leading* power «m the eastern
borders of China and in tiie Pacific
ocean. Mill England consent to such
an arrangement? Will France and Ger-
many consent? Will China and Japan
consent? The only solution seems to be
to give autonomy to the nation guaran-
teed by all the powers. As for For-
mosa, Great Hritain and France would
both oppose the cession of that island
to Japan. It is a matter of course that
a heavy war indemnity should he sought
by Japan, and to this claim China will
be compelled to agree. It is not im-
probable that close commercial and
political relations will spring up be-
tween China and Japan. For the most |
part missionaries have remained in I
thair places. In Pekin and elsewhere
work is carried forward without ob-
struction. Thus far the mission- I
aries of the seven stations of the Amer-
ican board in North China have
continued at their posts and engaged
in their usual labors. Without doubt j
rulers and people will be greatly hu- '
miliated. \\ itli the common people the 1
matter will end here. They leave i
I national interests to the government.
The government, the literary classes! '
and the business men of China have j
I been taught agrandobjeet lesson on tiie '
1 futility of their old methods and the |
necessity of adopting tiie new. In No-
I retnber the writer in passing through
| the city of Osaka was permitted to visit
forty-nine wounded Chinese prisoners.
They were quartered in the largest
, temple in Osaka. They were furnished
j "’''h a sufficient bedding and abundant
f'“>d. The best medical and surgical
aid was afforded them, the surgeon in
charge having received his medical
education in Berlin. They seemed
cheerful and thoughtful. When we re-
member that early in the war a Chinese
governor offered one hundred and
fourteen dollars for tiie head of a
Japanese privute and double that
amount for the head of an officer, such
treatment of Chinese prisoners by- tiie
Japanese is the more remarkable. Nor
IR greatly to lie wondered at if in a
single instance at Fort Arthur the
l cruelties of the Chinese provoked re-
taliation.”

ousts ill Algeria is ascribed by tho
French journal, "L’Eloveur," to whole-
sale destruction of quail by sportsmen
It is estimated that a quail consumes
daily from fifty to sixty grammes of
food, and thut twenty tiny locusts of
the size of hemp Need go to a gramme.
Hence one quail may destroy dai] v t.ouo
locusts, or front 20,000 to 25,000 during
the period when the Insects are small
enough to be swallowed by it. The
Tunisian sportsmen who, on the sth of
May of last year, shipped off 3u,o00
quails to France are, then, in u great
measure to blame for 130,000,000 locusts
less than usual having been destroyed
by those birds during the 3'ear.

I There have been placed on exhibition
in the Babylonian room of the British
j museum some very fine specimens of
Babylonian bronze castings, says the
j London Graphic. These interesting
I specimens of tiie early metal work como
from a place known to the ancients as
Sir-pur-ra, or Lagash, tiie modern
name of which isTell-lo, a large mound
or site in southern Chaldea. One of
the bronzes shows the king of
Babylonia, who appears clean-shaven,
, R> ibe dress of the high priest. The
garment reaches down to the feet, and
I is crossed over tiie left shoulder, leav-
ing the right arm, which is raised,
hare. The statuette is a full length
one, standing on its own double plinth,
aud is some twelve inches high. This
bronze comes from Abu Hubbab, and
dates about 11. C. 2200. A second
statuette represents a king iu the at-
titude of adoration or contemplation,
having his hands raised and clasped to-
gether in a similar manner as the god
Nebo is represented. The king wears
a long, flowing beard, but no costume
can be traced. This figure is not full
length, being cut off about tho calves,
ami represents probably the Chaldean
king, Oudea, It. C. 2300. The third
figure, which stands seven inches high,
represents Camil-Sin, king of Baby,
onia, in the character of n basket
bearer, both arms being uplifted and
supporting a basket borne on tiie head.
T he date of the figure is about B. C.
9200. It |, supposed thut these
statuettes may have been dedications to
Ningirsu, the fire god, whose worship
was a particular cult ut Tell-lo.
I he art of making bronze casts was
known to the Babylonians from very
curly times, and many examples are to
be seen In the British museum, ns well
as n the Louvre. A plaster cast of a
Babylonian queen, taken from tho
original in the Louvre, stands by the
8 uV , tlie no'v additions, casts of
which have been sent to the French
inn

Kansas City. May 25.-Holders of wheat
here were rather anxious to sell this morning
ut tiie opening of the market anil then* were
some trades l'&Sc lower than yesterday s
prices, hard wheat selling as low as 79e and
soft at 84c. Later, when tho sensational Chi-
cago advance occurred, those who had wheat
aske 1 higher prices, but buyers were slow to
respond with any advance in bld«. There were
less mill orders on the floor than any other day
in two weeks. A few sales to mills outsido
were reported at somewhat higher prices than
those quoted here. At tho close red wheat was
held at 853.8.3c and hard wheat at 82&83e.

. river are not practicable.

j The receipts of corn were largj r than any

to hold for higher prices and little was done.*
j Later buyers b )cam • p issesse I w 1th the idea
that Monday's receipts would be large and
that with the samples ca*vied over holders I
would have more than they would care to carry
long and prices would be lower. Consequently
hi.Is were reduced and at the close mixe l oo rn
would not sell within 1c or yostur lay s pri ;es.
