ASKS THAT IT BE RBPBALBD.
He Says That Its Operntlon Tends ‘to
Keep Par-m Values Down—His Ree-
ommendatlon Will Preclpltate
I. Hot Fight In Congress.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 23.—In his forth-
comingannual report Secretary Morton of
the agricultural department will recom-
mend the repeal of the homestead. law.
Mr. Morton attributes the decline in
farm values to the operations of this law
and sets forth many reasons why the free
distribution of land by this government
should be discontinued. This is certainly
the most important recommendation con-
tained in the report of any cabinet officer
and will be certain to call forth heated dis-
cussion when laid bdfore congress by the
president inhis annual message.
Secretary Morton goes very fully into a
discussion of ~ the operation of the home-
stead law and its effect upon farm values.
The latter hays declined steadily for ten
years past, and Secretary Morton demon-
strates clearly that it has been impossible
to maintain the value of farm property
when millions of acres were being distrib-
uted Without cost by the federal govern-
ment.
During the 30 years the law has been in
operation, beginning in 1866, 2,000,000
farms have been taken lip on homestead
claims, none of them less than 80 acres in
extent and many including 160 acres.
The Swamp Lands Act.
- Under the provisions of the timber cul-’
ture act 500,000 gifts of land have been
recorded, while fully 500,000 more farms
have been secured through the operations
of the desert land act. The swamp lands
act has also placed millions of acres at the
disposal of the various states. This vast
amount of land thrown open to cultivation
without cost of purchase to the possessors
has naturally operated to lessen the value
of land in the older sections of the country.
Before the enactment of the homestead
law, Mr. Morton states, a farm was a. fixed
investment, secured through unremitting
toil on the part of the owner and repre-
senting thrift and industry. Since the
homestead law went into effect, however,
and especially during the past ten years,
farm values have declined steadily, owing
to the cheapening effect of the freedistri-
bution of land by the federal government.
Every farm given away by the government
has lost a competitive purchaser of farm
lands and has reduced the cost of all land.
It would be equally impossible, he claims,
to keep up the value of any commodity
when comeptition is destroyed by free dis-
tribution.
“'1“ Be Bltterly Assalled.
This recommendation by Secretary Mor-
ton is certain to be bitterly assailed in
congress. While farm values may have
been generally reduced by the law, it will
be claimed on the other hand that many
benefits have been secured by the opera-
tions of the law and that the opening up
of the great west has been due to the vast
amount of land thrown open to settlement
under the provisions of this law. Nearly
all the available land, moreover, has been
taken up, and the repeal of the law at this
time should have no retroactive effect in
pulling up? the value of farm lands.
The report shows further that the agri-
cultural exports of this country increased
$17,000,000 during the past fiscal year, but
this increase has been 4 per cent less than
the average increase of experts. This, how-
ever, has been due to the fact that the ex-
ports of this country not agricultural in-
creased durjn the inst {lapel year from
$184,000,000 to' 228,000,000,or $44,000,000,
the greatest increase ever recorded in the
history of this country.
Mr. Morton also takes up the subject of
free seed distribution and scoffs at it.
Thirty carlcads of seeds were purchased
last year, and the appropriation for this
y'ear calls for 60 earloads, an increase in
cost from $74,000 to $148,000. The— seed:
distributed last year would, it is estimat-
ed, plant a strip one red wide four times
around the earth.

' Knit WEST, New 23.—SOme passengers
who arrived from Havana last night re- 5
port that it is currently admitted in Cuba ‘
that General Weyler has failed in his cam-
paign against Maceo. ' K
Though no accurate data is obtainable
as to the latter’s movements, all reports
agree that he has divided his forces into
small bands, which harass Spanish troops,
but present no chance for pitched battles
or decisive results.
Weyler's marches have been painful, and
his soldiers have suffered great hardships.
‘ In consequence 1,300 soldiers have been
sent to Candelarla sick.
Most Of the members of General Wey-
ler’s staff are ill and are returning to a-
vana. He also is falling back and will
establish headquarters near Artemisa, at
the estate of Pilar, which he claims is a
better base of operations.
The Spaniards in Havana are indignant
at chler’s inabilityto crush the insurrec-
tion in Pinar del Rio, and mutterings are
heard. General Pando, who is coming
with new re-enforcements, is indicated as
Weyler’s possible successor. All are de-
spendent in Havana and consider the out-
look gloomy. -
Insurgents in other sections of the is-
land continue active. It is said that the
important town of Victoria de las Tunas,
in Santiago province, is besieged by a
strong force of insurgents.
The train starting from Cardenas yester-
day was obliged to return on account of
large masses. of rebels crossing the line.

upon circumstances. .
The committee. will also take up all the
questions bearing upon the use of alcohol
in the arts and manufactures and will
give especial attention to the administra.
tion of any law relieving from taxation a1-
cohols so used. The principal objection
to the provision in the Wilson. bill provid-
ing for a rebate of the tax. which was re.
peeled when the commission was appoint-
ed, was based upon the difficulty of admin-
istering the law so as to avoid fraud upon
the government.

known separatists have recently disappear-
ed, leading to the suspicion that they are
organizing an insurrection. All the houses,
and their inmates as well, are being regis-
tered, and the landin places where fili-
busters might attemp a coup are closely
guarded by sentinels. The secret societies
which have long existed in Puerto Rico

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21.-Captain E.
H. Sterling, master of the American ship
Patrician, arrived on the steamship Ala-
meda from Sydney, on route to New York

tleton, N. 8., when she ran into a hurri-
cane. Sail after sail was blown away and
the decks were flooded. The minenmast
snapped Ofl short and carried away half the
mainmast. For a short time the foremost
stood and the lower topsoil on the main-
mast held. Then the storm renewed its
strength and tore the lower topsoil out of
the bolt“ ropes and carried away part of
the foremost. The Patrician began to leak,
and Captain Sterling set the American
flag, union down, at the foremost. All the
boats were gone, and when the crew had
given up the British steamship Fifeshire
hove in sight, lowered a boat and rescued
them. The Patrician was abandoned .on

day, but their triuInph will be of short
duration, as it is that of iniquity. ”

; THE WASHINGTON STORM.
Town! of Kingston nnd Catnldo Sub-
merged—Farmers Suffer Losses.
SPOKANE, Nov. 2l.—The condition of
the submerged Cceur d’Alene country
grows more serious each day. All the
wagon bridges between Wallace and Ward-
ner are washed away and several railroad
bridges are gone. At Kingston the people
are huddled together in a schoolhouse.
The houses are all afloat. The situation
at Cataldo is even worse than at Kingston.
The town is completely submerged, and
there are no boats. In the second story of
one house 18 persons are huddled together,
their hogs and chickens occupying the low-
er part. The Northern Pacific bridge is
sprung 13 inches out of place, and 100
cords of' driftwood or more is lodged
against the center pier.
Great losses have been suffered by the
meadow farmers. The entire crops of hay
have been washed away, together with
barns, outbuildings and homes. The
Northern Pacific between Mission and
Wallace is all washed out and box cars are
floating in the water. The food supply in
Occur d’Alene is short, but so far there
has been no actual suffering, It will be
some time before provisions can be taken
The situation on the Great Northern
railroad has, not been overdrawn in the
least. Railroad men and others who have
traveled over the flooded regions corrobo-
rate in every particular the reports of the
complete blockade of that road. One of
the most prominent business men of this
city said he was informed at Inde‘x that
Great Northern passenger train No. 3, due
here on last Friday morning, was tied up
near Wellington; that first class passen-
gers were supplied with half rations from
the dining car, while second class passen-
gers procured food from Wellington. Mr.
McCarthy, a merchant of Sultan City, says
the passenger train was still there yester-
day morning and that the food for passen-
gers was obtained from nearby towns. As
to the damage to Great Northern property,
Edwin H. Warner, a reputable engineer
who has been several days getting out of
the flooded district, confirms the reports.

projected American-Chinese railway be-
tween Peking and Canton, has arrived here
from the orient and took the first train to
Seattle, to return home via the Northern
Pacific.
Mr. Spitzel says that tho Tsung Li
Yamen has received a secret edict appoint-
ing Sheng Tsctai director general of rail-
ways and granting him permission to con-
struct the Hankcw-Canton-Souchow line.
It also authorizes him to borrow 20,000,-
000 tools, 10,000,000 taels to be furnished
by the Tsung Li Yamen, the northern su-
perin.c..t.e.icies to furnish 3,000,000 tools
and the southern superlntendencies to fur-
nish 7,000,000 tacls. About 40,000,000
tools will be required for the construction
of the lines. Native materials must be
lines, but foreign engineers may be en-
gaged. Sheng Taotai is the head of the
telegraph administration in China. ‘ Mr.
Spitzel says that the railway will certainly
be built, and with American money and
largely with'Amerlcan material. The road
4 cannot be proceeded with until next sea-
son, but will be started as soon as the
Pihho river is free from ice.

SAILOR’S STORY.
Not the Proverblal SallOr’s Yarn
An 0|d‘8alt Speaks in
’Norwalk.
. The life of a sailor has many ups and
downs. The hardships of the man who
sails the briny deep are not appreciated.
by the land lubbers who know not What
it is to struggle with the elements to
keep above water, it takes brawn and
muscle and good constitutions to stand
it. While men, even the llardiest, when
they return from nautical life find the
exposure has left them with a legacy as
a constant reminder of the past. And
often when a Jolly Jack Tar is relating
an experience, the back that has car-
‘rled him through it all is burdened with
a far heavier burden. Our representa-
tive had a pleataut chat the other. day
With 1ust such a man. A sailor for thirty
years. Thomas Cooney, by name, 3
Norwalk citizen, residing at NO. 73
Harbor avenue. He has also held the
position of dockmaster for ten years,
and to add to the difficulties he has had
to contend with, he fell from a, tree
when a'boy, striking a fence. This 'ac-
extent left him with back trouble, and
the life on the water vith its hardships
added their share until he foundback-
ache was more or less a steady ‘ thing,
coming on from time to time. Like
most people he did not understand that
it came from the kidneys, but reading
that Dean’s Kidney Pills cured back-
ache he got a box at Hale’s drug store
and was surprised to find how quickly
they acted. “Why,” says Mr. Cooney,
“they simply cured me, and you may
he glare I have a good word for Dean’s
Kidney Pills, they have done such good
work for me. I shall be glad to tell
anyone about it who wishes to know.”
It’s like a case of mistaken identity.
Mr. Cooney did not realize that it was
kidney ache and that his kidneys were
limited, nor. his back, That exposure
had simply increased the kidney com-
plications. It’s easy for Doan’s Kidney
Pills to cure such cases.
