AMERICAN TILLERS OF THE SOIL. .Sustained the Nntlon'n Credit ivlth Their .Hard Karnod Ilollurei and Defended th'e StaTa nnd StrlpeH. ( f. . AMiinusT , Mass. , Jue 15. The baccalaure ate sermon before the graduating class ut the Massachusetts agricultural college was delivered today by Prof. C. S. Walker. His topic was : "Duty of the Educated Farmer. " Prof. Walker said : "Heretofore , In all parts of the world , the fanner has been no match for his adversary. Ho never held his own against soldier or priest , against politician or statesman. In ancient times ho was a slave ; In th6 middle ages a serf. In the nineteenth" century ho Is slave , serf , peasant or proprie tor , according to location. American farmers , as a class , are face to face with a crisis. They have subdued a continent and furnished raw material for our factories , bread for the operatives and manhood for our civilization. They sustained the nation's credit with their hard earned dollars lars , rescued endangered liberty with their conscientious ballots and de fended time and again the stars and stripes with their loyal blood. Vigorous in body , strong in character , striking in indlvld- uallty , lovers of home , massive In common sense , fertile in resources , devout believers in Providence , the farmers of America will never allow themselves to be overwhelmed by i'he fate that sunk the tillers of the soil in 'India , in Egypt , in Europe. From all parts of this land the farmers are coming together. Organization and cooperation tion are wonderful ideas that have awakened them as never before. They are grasping hands with a grip that means some thing , comparing wavs and means , uniting upon ends to bo gained. They demand for themselves and children an education equal to the best. They insist upon a fair share of the prollts of American industry , claiming that no state can exist in which tillers of the soil bear the most of the burdens and share the least of the blessings of advanced civilization. But they are in danger of making mistakes iu the struggle that will turn back the progress of the move ment. They demand leaders. To supply this demand is the imperative duty of every educated farmer. Whatsoever of bodily vigor , mental power and moral heroism the educated larmer may have acquired from an cestors , college or university , ho will need that he may consecrate It to the great work of strengthening his brother farmers of Amer ica , so that they shall over remain the im movable foundation of this the only republic whoM > empire has not been rapidly under- "tilled. < -ox < : nissntx.t t , 'Outline of the Coining AVook'H AVorlc in Ilcitli UOIIKCM. WASHINGTON1 * , Juno 15 , The general debate on the silver question is to close , by the'pres - uiil order , in the senate at ! t o'clock Monday. Whoa this matter is out of the way a struggle for precedence is probable. Senator - tor Allison says ho will ask to have the legislative , executive and Judicial neproprhition bill considered. Sena tor PJutt wants the bill to admit Wyoming taken up and Senator Fryo will press the shipping bill. If the "Wyoming bill is taken up it | s understood the democrats will offer a substitute to admit Wyoming , Idaho , New Mexico and Ari/ona in a body. Ily the middle of the week the republican members of the llnunce committee expect to have the tariff bill ready. A feeling prevails that the debate on Unit measure will not be gin until some of the measures above re- I erred to are disposed of. The reaming appropriation bills arc to be vigorously pushed in the house this week. The sundry civil appropriation bill will bo followed by the Indian appropriation bill and the national bankruptcy bill. The election commiteo wish to call up the Missis.sippi case of Chalmers vs Morgan. The committee will report in favor of the demo cratic member , and It may act as a .softening prelude to the angr debate on the national election bill which is expected to follow. * - CM 1'T.IIX JI 11/fI.lIOItE.

CraTBii CITY , S. D. , Juno 15 , ( Special to Tin ; BBE. ] The Black Hills country is nip- Idly coming to the front. After lift con years of trial and persistent effort on the part of her unwavering people , beset with difficul ties and adverse circumstances Imme.isura- bly greater than any other section has ever experienced , she is now surely and unmis takably emerging from the dark shadows of adversity into the bright sunlight of mater ial prosperity. The Sioux Indian reservation , that impene trable barrier iipon our eastern border , has been removed , assuring direct railroad com munication with the cast In the early future. The building of the Custcr and Deadwood branch of the B. ft M. railroad through the heart of the Hills , now In progress , Is doing more to establish conlidence , encourage en terprise and stimulate commercial pursuits than can bo readily conceived. Under the Impetus consequent upon the building of this road , the first to enter the Hills proper , now Industries are being contemplated , and these already Inaugurated are being materially stimulated. At no place in the Hills is this Impetus being more strongly felt than at Cus tcr City , to which point the road is expected to bo completed within the next .sixty days. Ouster City Is sitiiu.tcd upon the great tin bolt , which , after the most rigid and thorough Investigation by the most renowned experts of the world , is conceded to embrace the rich est and most extensive ten deposits yet dis covered in any country. The Hamey Peak consolidated tin com pany , a powerful corporation , whoso holdings comprise no less than live hundred claims , many of which lie in this immediate vicinity , is now pushing their development with in creased vigor and with results of the most satisfactory character. The company has at this time about three hundred men in U.s employ who are actively engaged in the development of Its piopertles , and It is confidently believed that when the work of development has been completed , the lodes thoroughly and systematically opened and reduction plants erected and in operation , many thousands will bo added to this number. Custer City , Vy reason of her favorable lo cation , In close proximity to tlio mines , cannot fail to be greatly benelittcd by the operations of tills great corporation. Tlio recent pur chase of large tracts of land in the Immediate vicinity of this place by this company is strongly indicative of an intention to estab- li-h reduction plants and smelling works in this locality , which can but result in materi ally adding to the measure of Ouster's future prosperity. This Important Industry , the fu ture success of which is no longer a euestioo | of doubt , insures for this city a measure of benefit compared with which the highest ad vantages claimed by less favored localities seem tame and insignificant. An industry in our midst of such stupendous magnitude as this promises to be , when fairly inaugurated , cannot fail to place Custer Clly at the head of the list of commercial cities of the northwest , bringing , as it undoubtedly will , in its train a series of railroads , unlimited trallic and the establishment at this point of the gieat commercial center and leading busi ness emporium of the Black Hills. With a view to securing the enormous traf fic arising from the operations of the mines of the great tin belt , in connection with other extensensive and important mineral resources in this locality , which are as yet compara tively undeveloped , the Burlington company , at an expense of millions of dollars , is at this time , as before stated , vigorously pushing a line to this place , which fact of itself should bo sulllcient to convince a doubting world of our mineral resources , as it is upon the estab lished merits of these sterling resources that the road is mainly being built. Especially is it apparent that the Burlington company fully appreciates the surpassing advantages posr sessed by Custer City as a future business point , us It bus already signified in the most unmistakiiblo manner a well s.ottled intention to champion its material interests , The fact of an alliance having been recently formed between this company and the Har- noy Peak consolidated tin company , whereby a vast amount of capital will bo ex pended in connecting this city by rail with the mines and reduction plants of the latter company , would seem to fully establish Cas ter City's claim to the distinction of being the future ' 'Tin City of America. " With her boundless mineral and other ma terial resources , a climate of surpassing ex cellence , water of pronounced purity and na tive scenery of the most sublime and charm ing character , Custer City offers advantages and attractions to the home-seeker and in vestor rarely found in the most highly favored localities. In conclusion , it may be truly said that Custer City is now turning a leaf in her history which will mark an era in her check ered career , which will bo followed by a long period of unbroken prosperity and commer cial progress , the measure nf which at this distance may only bo dimly imagined and most imperfectly understood. Her future is radiant with promise. Who may say what one brief year may bring forth ! Mexico and the Chinese. TrcsoN , Ariz. , Juno 15. ( Special Tele gram toTin : Br.u.J L. S.

GENERAL WEAVER SHIES HIS CASTOR. A Convention of Anti-Monopo lists Called to Meet in Den Molnew AugiiHt ! ! Other Iowa NOWH. DES MOINES , la. , .Tune 15. [ Special to THE BEIIt ] Is currently reported that Hon. Ed Hunter Is going to Nebraska. Ho has long been manager for the Iowa democracy In the interest of the railroads , and it Is said that ho will bo needed further west the coining win ter to take care of railroad Interests for the Burlington "routo while the Nebraska legis lature is in session. His experience at DCS Moines will enable him to do good work for the corporations at Lincoln. ' Humor says that Governor J. D. Weaver is to be a candidate for congress in this district on a fusion democratic greenback labor ticket. He Is an indomitable worker , au able debater , and where he Is a candidate the canvass will not be a tame one. Even though it cannot bo considcrad in the canvass of this year , unmistakable mutterIngs - Ings indicate that prohibition and high li cense will enter into the discussions as party measures and the fitness of each party to govern the state bo discussed from tnat standpoint. In the Fifth district the members of the farmers' alliance have put forward William Battin of Marshall county as a remibliean candidate for congress. As the present in cumbent , Daniel Ivcrr , declines to be consid ered a candidate , Mr. Battin will1 have an even chance with other new usulrnnts. Presi dent Furrow of the state farmers' alliance re gards Judge Oattin as an exceptionally strong man. The alliance In this state is making its efforts through existing parties and for that reason candidates brought before the repub lican conventions by the farmers will have many points In favor of their nomination and election. The Homestead and other leading alliance papers advises the members of the alliance to work for reforms through the old parties. Indications point to the nomination of Cap tain . [ . A. T. Hull for congressman from this district without opposition. He is one of Iowa's most popular republicans and was fairly entitled to the nomination for governor last year , having served two terms as lieuten ant governor. The railroad organs are raising objections to John Mahin of Muscatino for railroad commissioner because he is a newspaperman. The DOS Moines Lcadcrcditoriallvendorses a letter published by L. C. Teed , eVropubli- can postmaster at Creston , in which he con demns the failure of the republican part } ' in Its pension legislation. The Leader says : "With open arms democracy stands ready to receive Mr. Teed and all who are equally dis satisfied. " What can democracy promise Mr. Teed in the way of pension legislation with Cleveland , the vetoer , at its head i The most ardent Iowa prohibitionists do not claim that the prohibitory law , or senti ment , is gaining favor in the cities of that state. This may not bo true of the rural dis tricts , but it certainly is of Burlington , Sioux City , Council Bluffs , Davenport , Duouque , Keokuk , DCS Moiucs and other cities. This failure to enforce the law in the cities , where its enforcement is most needed , and the fact that they have never believed it pos sible to enforce the law there , constitute the biisis from which anti-prohibition republicans argue for a modification of the law. These republicans do not demand a total repeal of the law and the establishment of saloons in every part of the state , but a repeal of it as o the cities , because in them it cannot bo en forced. This is one of the great political issues of the state and will liguro largely in the state election of Ihill. Should the anti-prohibition republicans bo permitted to lead in the can vass , as now seems probable , the law will at least bemodilied if not overthrown. It is quite fortunate for the state that pro hibition is not in its constitution for the law will continue to grow ooro unpopular , es pecially in the cities , and as it is "only a stat ute law a majority of both houses , by the ap proval of the governor , may modify or repeal it at any timo. ji4 F.

Advices to the Associated pi ess by the steamship Oceanic from Japan state that the excitement follow ing the recent depredations of .students in Tokio has subsided somewhat since they apologized to Key. Mr. linbrey , the New Jer sey missionary , who was roughly handled by them. Foreigners , however , feel outraged that , the culprits were not severely punished , .nndsos.ftjir.osultoj their escape from punish ment the refractory students arc-becoming more audacious. The distress among thousands of starving people of Toklo and other largo cjtlcs is being ameliorated to a great extent by foreigners and Japanese noblemen. The price of rtco Is higher than ever before , both in Japan and Corca , and this is probably only a forecast of the suffering , as the outlook for the growing crop is poor. There are many vague rumors concerning the reported taking of Corea by the Russians. There is some trouble in Coroa , but the Jap anese ofllcials know nothing definite. All that is known is that alU the British men-of- war in Tokio have steam up and ii'-o under orders to sail at a moment's notice. The American naval force is also expecting or ders. Dispatches from Corea say the new United States minister , Heard , has arrived and the retiring minister , DInsmore , is about to de part after receiving testimonials of esteem from all foreigners iu Corea. Numa Shuischl , editor of Mainichi Sicm- buin , and for the past ten years a prominent figure in Japanese politics , is dead. In the reorganization of the Japanese cabi net recently Mutsii Munomitsu , late Japanese minister to the United States , secured only one of the positions. fx y.tron or IWEE WOOL. A Memorial Sent to the Finance Committee. BOSTON , Mass. , Juno 15. A memorial In favor of free wool has been senttotho llnanco committee by the Wool Consumers' associa tion.

Three months ago the Forest Urovo Presbyterian church nt Chut tiers was a modest little affair with a debt and meager attendance.

At n meeting of the Central labor union last Sunday the social ists and conservatives had a row , in which the latter fact iun came out best , deciding to exclude socialistic press reporters. The social ists held a meeting this morning nnd decided to withdraw from the Central labor union altogether and form a now central body unless the resolution was rescinded. Accordingly they were better disciplined for a light at the evening meeting than the conservative clement and a fierce war of words occurred , and when , after u long scrim mage , the conservatives found they could do nothing , u motion to adjourn was pronounced carried by the chair. Immediately upon the withdrawal of the conservatives the socialists continued the meeting , restoring the socialis tic labor pre&s to representation. Two Itrothoi'H Hun Down anil Killed.

The major Is forty-six years old and is serv ing his seventh term In congress. If hois successful It will malio him as strong In his party as Governor Campbell Is with the doin- oeratio organization In Ohio , and It is be- Hoved it will mulct ; him the republican can didate for governor- next year unless Con gressman Moroy of Hamilton in selected. Colonel Moiey , like Major MoICInlov. never loses a campaign and is stronger than his party. Ho lives in the sumo city as the gov ernor of Ohio ; is a member of tiiesamo family , is also a young man , one of the hovs ; was a good soldier , anil would arouse in the republican ranks the saino enthusiasm that Governor Campbell's name creates in the opposite party. MILLS' iin.vsos' . It is staled that the real reason that Mr Mills of Texas diil nut accept the appointment on the committee on rules last weolc was th.it ho is jealous of Me-sM-s. Carlisle , Blount and others who have been recognized by Speaker Heed In the formation of that and other com"- mittees. Mr. Mills thought that ho ought to have been placed upon the committee- the beginning of this session , and regards the act of being passed over when Mr. Hlount of Georgia was appointed to 1111 the vacancy made by the death of Mr. Kandiill as a tlrst- class affront. Ho does not lllco Mr Heed either , and says that ho never could get along with him. The democrats in the house are without a leader now , and all of the aspirants to the leadership arc jealous of each other. xo sfMi.iv II.M.I. on iiEBii. At the Atlantic baseball park there was the utmost quietude this afternoon. Sunday baseball in Washington Is a thing of the past The district commissioners have put a stop to it under the law against Sunday desecration. President Hewitt was given notice yesterday that if ho attempted a game on Sunday ho would bo arrested. At the hour for the gamete to open there were policemen at the gate in stead of ticket takers , hovel's of the game were , however , taken to the Gentlemen's driving park , nearly a four-mile run , between the city and Alexandria , Va. , outside of the jurisdiction of the district commissioners. The saloons are also closed on Sundays. pito.-ii'iuiTivK i.nnisr.ATios. " " " " { I It Is not likely that there will bo much rnoro general legislation at this session of congress. The silver , tariff , federal election and state hood bills will occupy nearly all of the time which will not bo consumed by the general appropriation and private pension bills. There is an enormous amount of proposed legislation on the calendars of the two houses , and a much greater amount in committees , which will never bo reported. It is belic\ed that congress will adjourn within ten days after the tariff bill is llnally adopted , aiul possibly within a week. Tho.sc who are in terested in pending legislation can have a pretty good idea as to when congress will cease Us laoors by keeping their eyes upon the tariff bill. KEEPING vr A Qroitt'M. Speaker Keed llndsagood deal of trouble in keeping a sulllcient number of republican members of the house In the city to offset the votes of the democrats. The former are anxious to get into their districts tq enter the campaign , but the latter , coming mostly from the south , where men are elected on , traditions and are sent here ius antiijulties , have very little concern about the campaign. The speaker has been able to keep a good many members hero by refusing to recognize them for the consideration of public buildings anil other measures till important legislation is. out of the way , and he has in most instance * refused to recognize substitutes or members representing other members in calling up In- dlyMuaLlegislaUon. If It were not for this it wbildr'bd"e'xtrcmoly ! diflieult to keep'more're- ' publicans In the house than there are demo crats , and the house would be often without a , quorum and the proceedings would bo at a standstill. The democrats , with their usual disposition to filibuster and by unreasoning partisanship , seldom permit a bill to get through without there are enough republicans to out-vote the minority. MISCELLANEOUS. The nomination of Uocelver Hall of ( he Grand Island land ollico has been confirmed by the senate. The contracts for surveying that portion of the Sioux Indian reservation Iving In north ern Nebraska has been awarded to Hooert Harvey and N. .1. I'aul of Nebraska. The work has been taken out of the control of Surveyor General Sullivan of South D.ikata and placed where it belongs. Mr. Ingalls has presented In the senate the petition of Grand Army of the Kcpnbllc post No. 7 of Nebraska , praying for the passage nf the senate bill to remove the limitation in thu act granting arrears of pensions. Sonatcr Merrill is seriously afraid that the bill to purchase the square opposite the now library for the site of a supreme court build ing will have to go over for the session. Ho thinks that the house Is to blame for the delay , but as a matter of fact mini of the judges of the supreme court and all the scna- lors who practice before that court are averse to leaving the eapltol.
