For many months past so much has been said about the decline in agriculture, the low prices of farm products, the abandoned farms in New England, the mortgaged farms of the West, etc., that the suDject lias Decome wearisome. The depression in agriculture is a serious fact, and it demands and deserves the most careful consid eration of the economists. The causes should be determined and removed if possible. At the study and discussions we can have in this line is profitable. But when agitators and demagogues are "working the subject for all it is worth" to help foist their financial schemes and political theories on the people, it is time to call a halt and point out the false assumption an which their theories are mainly based. They assume that the de pression in agriculture exists in this country only. This is not true. It is not confined to this countiy; it is geueral, It affects the countries af Europe as well as our own. The agricultural depres sion is even greater in the Uuited Kingdom than in the United States. The demagogues have much to say about the condition of farm labor ers and the depreciation of farm values in JNew Jinglanu, but not ji word about that of old England. If they did, the weakness of their arguments and the worthlessness of the remedies they offer would appear at once. They hide, and may even deny, the facts. Mr. Eobert Giflin, the eminent authority on British statistics, states that trom is to to ISoo, a period when there was a very large increase in the aggregate wealth of the Nation, the value of farm lands in the United Kingdom decreased nearly 16 per cent. The condition of agriculture in England to-day is far from being a high one. Ex cepting in a very few special lines farming is unprofitable. The farmers there are not land -owners. but renters and they are having a hard time of it paying their rent and taxes. Attention is directed to this sini- rjlv to show that all theories for the relief of agriculture based on the assumptions that the condition of agriculture is all wrong in this country and all right in Europe are practically worthless. WHY i'AKMEItS FAIL. The Chief Causes leading to Poverty, Slavery ana uegraaauoii. The Commission of Labor Sta tistics of Iowa, Dr. E. E. Hutchiiis, recently sent out a blank to be filled by farmers, containing this question," IFhat are the chief causes which lead to farmer's fail ures?" It was answered substan tially as follows by Mr. M. B, Doolittle, of Cresco, Iowa: 1. The markets, or consumers, are too far from products. 2. Too high railroad rates. 8. Too high rates of interest on borrowed capital. 4. Too many dogs and wolves in the country and not enough sheep. 5. Too much fashion, too much whiskey and tobacco and not enough enterprise. 6. Too high lawyer and doctor fees and not enoughgeneral intelli gence. 7. Too much party in politics and not enough principle. 8. Too ranch listening to farm ers' enemies and too little seeking for common sense for a guide. 9. Business as now conducted gives the farmer no part in making prices. Jhen he sells the dealer makes the price of his produce; when he buys, the merchant names the price he must pay, end both are generally against the farmer. 10. The farmers greatest vol untary act which enters into his failures is the utterly heartless manner in which he unhitches from a machine which has plowed his corn, mown hay or cut and bound his grain, leaving it to rot and rust in the field for the nest eleven months. In Maine and Massa chusetts men's shoes are manu factured and sold at $1.50 per pair. Corn in that market is never less, and often more than 75 cents per bushel, or two bushels of coru for a pair of shoes. Middlemen and railroads transport these shoes to Iowa and sell them for $4 per pair. Farmers pay for them with corn at 25 cents per bushel, or twelve bushels of corn for a pair of shoes. The shoes are manufac tured or produced for two, anil sold to the consumer for twelve bushels of corn. They who go-off with the other ten bushels have much to do with the failure of farmers. The Iowa Homesteqd adds to this list two other causes scrub stock, and the itch for office. To these may be added, the want of economy, and of the adaptation of expenditures to the productive capacity of the farm. WH'iRE THE WILD FOWL GO. Sitka Alaskan. Until the acquisition of Alaska by the United States it was a mat ter of wonder where certain wild fowl went when they migrated from tenmerate climes on the an- mv.,.li of nniruer. as well as snow I birds and other small specie of the feathered tribe. It was afterward found that their habitat in summer was the waters of Alaska, the Yukon river, and the lakes of that hyperborean region. A reporter recently interviewed C. J. Green, of Xorton Souud, Western Alaska, and he confirms the statement of Dall and others. "People wonder where the wild fowl come from," said he. "They see the sand-hill crane, the goose, herou and other fowl every spring and fall pursue their unwearied way, but like the wind, they do not know whence they come or whither they go. Up on Golovin bay, on the north shore of Norton sound, is the breeding place of these fowl. All the birds in creation, seemingly, go to that country to breed. Geese, ducks, swans, and thousands upon thou sands of sand-hill cranes are swarming there all the time. They lay their eggs in the blue-stem grass in the low lands, and if you go up the river a little way from the bay the noise is almost deafen ing. Myriads of swallows and robins are there, as well as millions of magnificent grouse, wearing red combs and feathered moccasins. This grouse turns white as snow in winter. You can kill dozens of juicy teal ducks or grouse as fat as butter balls in a few moments. The wild fowl and bears live on salmon berries, with which all the hills are literally covered." GENERAL NEWS. The wholesale book and paper house of Bowen, Mervill tfc Co., at Indianapolis, Ind., was burned March 17. The .entire building except the front wall suddenly fell in carrying in the twenty or more firemen who were on the roof. Ten were taken out of the ruins dead, and ten were taken out who were more or less seriously injured. Loss on stock and building $125- 000. Insurance 870,000. At West Port, Conn., Annie Lowery and Mary McDermott, two young women employed in Lee's cotton factory fought a stand up fight with bare knuckles in an old building. The fight was. the ontcome of a quarrel over a young man. Neither side had much advantage until Miss Lowery landed a stunning blow on Miss McDermott's nose, which settled the affair. Several indictments have been found against officials connected with the sheriff's office in New York city charging them with bribery, larceny and corruption generally. They are all prominent chiefs of Tammany, and reform screamers. Reports from the great tobacco counties of western North Carolina show that at least one-third of the the plants were killed by the cold weather. Arthur Henry, station agent of the Nickel Plate road at Dartsburg, Ohio, refused to open his office safe for a burglar Monday night and was shot and killed. Fire destroyed the busiuess portion of Kirksville Mo. Loss estimated at $200,000. Insurance $75,000. From the lower Rio Grande, Tex. country reports come that live stock are suffering severely for lack of water. Nearly all the streams are dry. Indianians at Washington have raised a fund for the relief of the families of the firemen who were killed by the falling in of the building at the late fire at Indian apolis. President Harrison sub scribed $200, Att'y Gen'l Miller $100. $b0U0 nave been subscribed. A laundry trust has been formed in New York city to squeeze out the Chinese laundries, lhe Chi nese knowing better what a mongo lian is and their aptitude to over come obstacles laugh at the trust. A Chicago News dispatch reports that at a conference between con gressman Dorsey, State auctioneer Benton of Nebraska, and President Charles Francis Adams, of the Union Pacific, the latter said his road would positively eut grain rates one half, that he was willing to do what he could for the relief of the Nebraska farmers. Ex-State Treasurer Noland of Missouri is under bonds to answer a charge of embezzlement of State funds. Bills repealing the charters of Frankfort, Henry county and Grand Lodge lotteries have passed the Kentucky house of representa tives. A crockery and glassware associ ation has been formed to oppose the tariff on articles of their trust. Benjamin Growel was lynched at Kobinson Station, Ky., last week. Growel had defrauded farmers in that locality by buying stock and paying for it in bogus checks. The Chinese census and certifi cate bill was passed by the house under suspension of the rules M'ch 17, with a provision for the pun ishment of any Chinamen who shall transfer his certificate to any other person. This, if it becomes a law, ought to put an end to the surreptitious introduction of Chi namen into the United States. At Washington3Iarch 16, At a meeting of the World's fair com mittee it was voted to fix the time of opening the fair April 30, 1893, and closing in October the same year.

Cheatham was hanged at Grenada, Miss., March 10 for the nulr ot jonn unman colored. iu July last. Cheatham is the first white man ever hung in Mississippi for killing a negro. Governor Nichols, of Louisiana, refused the tender by the Louisi ana Lottery company, of $100,000 for use in the emergency caused by the Hood. In reply he said iu substance, that on the eve of the session of the legislature during which a renewal or extension of your charter will be acted upon. "I have no right to place the people under obligations to your company by accepting a gratuity from you. I return herewith the check. OREGON. Portland Oregoniun says; Buena Vista parties, who made a ship ment of hops last fall to an East ern firm, are much gratified to learn that they are the finest iu quality of any hops shipped by them to London. It is to the interest of all to know that the quality as well as the quantity of Oregon products rank first-class. Astoria wants to be made a calling point by the regular steam ers playing between San Francisco and the upper coast point. The rotary land plow invented by Bergendahl is being manufac tured at Pendleton. The late period of cold weather has been unfortunate for the agri cultural inetrests of Sherman county. Much fall sown wheat has been killed, and a large acre age will necessarily have to be resown. FOREIGN NEWS.
