The monopolists in California are
determined to kill the goose that laid
their golden egg. The entire whea,t.rop
OF AZ State is estimated to be worth
ST, 000, 900 to the farmers. but it has
fallen at the mercy of a combination
of interior freiEhters, San Francisco
spectators and a shipping monopoly.
1t costs less to ship a car load of wheat
from Council Bluffs, or St. Paul, to
New Iorh-l,5O0 miles-than it does
over h Central Pacific lines, 200
miles. And when the cargoes are
Landed at Vallejo or Oakland, it costs
from five to SIX dollars per ton more
to ship it by way of Cape Horn to
Liverpool thar it did five years ago.
The wheat crop of California in past
Years has been conveyed to Europe
at less than the average of ST. per ton.
This wear freiGhts are kept up to S23
and S2f per ton, and only SO because Il
combination has monopoliZed the
shipping. The effect of this on the
farming Interest must be more GisaS-
trous than a season of flood or drought.
Ii sweeps away from the profits on this
one crop s., 500, 600, at The lowest est
mate, and puts that sum into the peck
cts of the combination who are rob
bing them.

Gently have spoken Of the advance in
the price of fuel. "Coal has gone up
as the saying is, and whether the adj
vance in price arises from a falling of
in the yield, increased consumption
by the manufactures. or by the "a
son of the conflicts between the miners
and their employers, the fact remains
the same hat coal has enormously
risen in price from the rates charged
last year. This of itself would prove
a hardship, especially to the poort r
classes; but then there are other mis-
fortunes still more distressing. The
potato crop has failed generally
throughout the British Isles. The &c
counts from the agricultural districts
in the English sEires is of the most
distressing character. \ writer in one
of the agricultural papers of England
estimates that $500 acres of the po-
tato crop are all put destroyed, while
another equally good authority de
c,ares that he "hardly ever remem-
berS the malady so general and the
destruction so complete" In Ireland
and Scotland the crops are also bligh =
ed, possibly not to the same extent As
in England, but sufficiently extensive
to be severely felt by the poorer elias
ses in both countries. The foot and
mouth disease o the cattle is an
other cause for alarm. The disease
which made itself manifest 10 a con
siderable extent last year, has now re
appeared in still greater proportions.
In Norfolk, in two weeks, the loss in
sheep alone amounted in value to
over II hundred and twelve thouS-
and dollars. Taking everything into
consideration, and with these facts be-
fore US, it is evident that the approach
of Winter is regarded with feelings Of
dread by the poor, hard worked and
ill paid mechanics, laborers and work
ing people OF England, Ireland and
Scotland.

ADVERTISING MAKES BUSINESS.
Advertising brings the merchant
customers; it sells his goods.
Without advertising, the sheriff
would be obliged to sell his goods
for him. Advertising fills steamers,
and ships, and railroad trains with
passengers. 1t rents and sells
houses and farms, sells stock,
brings labor and capital together
for mutual benefit, it increases
commerce by showing what one
nation has to sell to another, and
what it wishes to buy. 1t helps
the poor as well as the rich. 1t is
in fact the great power that infus.
IS life in trade and businss.
Without advertising, newspapers
could not have an existence, and
without newspapers we could
have De modern " civilization.
