wheat and Corn.

The Country Gentleman, paper
whose opinions upon such subjects
are entitled to consideration, thus
speaks of the corn harvest Of this
year in the United States and the
deficiency Of wheat in Europe:
"The general anticipation Of a
short crop of corp appears likely to be
more than realized, for not only has
very severe drought cut short the
crop in many sections west, but u
hard frost on the night Of the I3 inst.
must have severely injured large
amount Of late corn. According TO
all accounts very large breadth Of
corn was planted in June, and not a
little in the latter part Of the month !;
a large portion Of this corn must be
injured more or less where the frost
prevailed. SO far as heard from the
frost was most severe and did the
most DAMAGE Ia Illinoisl md " Miscon.
though there IL doubtless good deal
OF old corn vt the West, it may be a
question whether we shall have much
more than the usual supply Of bread
stuffs to spare for export. This being
the case, and it being difficult to tell
where sufficient supplies to meet the
European demand can be obtained,
there seems to be good reason for ex-
pecting the large advance in prices
recently referred to by the Mark Lane
Express.
The New York Daily bulletin
commercially says the theory OF the
English Economist, that the worlds
supply Of wheat 10 always equal to
the demand, is likely to be fully test
ed during the present year. Hereto
fore England has been the only food
importing country, and all supplies
have tended to that market. But
while this has been the case, the re-
sources Of the wheat producing coun-
tries have been taxed to their utmost
to supply the demand. Last year
Great Britain required 10000, 900
bushels OF wheat, aud the whole
world was drained to supply the de-
fciency, and all the va!!ab!e ship
ping called into requisition TO trans
port It. The current requirements
OF the present year are admitted TO
be very little, n any, less than those
Of last year, while 1t Is said France
will require ian unprecedented
large supply Of foreign wheat" also.
Her deficiency 10 estimated at from
50. 900, 900 to 80, 900 900 bushels. Prob
ably 60, ,OO0, 900 would be n fair calcu-
lation, az the requirements OF that
country this year." This the Daily
Bulletin says, is nearly equal g the
ordinary deficiency OF England" It
Is also said that "Other Continental
deficiencies at about $1,000. 900, max.
ing a total required European de-
mand this year OF PIC, ,OO0, 900 bushels,
or twice the requirements Of last
year, AFTER making all Yeasona-
Bile deductions" IL il said, "Europe
will require ut least 900 400, 900 bush
els OF wheat this yeaf." AS to where
these enormous supplies are to come
from, the Bulletin does not try to
point out, but ssys, "it Is very evi.
dent that they are not now in sight,
and cannot be relied On In the pres
ent emergency.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE con-

In official quarters here for the dis

Improbable. II is true that twice

the subject, and to-day informed sev-

The lands recently decided to the
United States by the Ute Indians of
Colorado and Crow Indians Of Mon
tana are Of great richness. The tract
in question contains about 12,OOO.WW
acres Of mineral, farming and gra-

most important, as they are rich In
gold, silver, copper, iron, lead and
coal. The gold mines are producing

The Campaign.

Another political campaign has
ended, and doubtless all are glad that
1t has past. 1t is duty of every cit
iSen to be to some extent a politician;
all should feel an interest in politics ;
all should read and be as fully inform
ed as possible in reference to affairs
OF government, in his own town,
township, county and State, as well
as those Of the nation. Every man,
woman and child has an interest In
these matters whether 1t is felt and
appreciated or not. Many of our
best men have distaste of politics
and all connected Herewith, and
hence are disposed to let others
have full management of such mat
ters. This is wrong, and is really
the foundation of most of the evils
existing in our political system. II
good men will have nothing to do
with politics bad men will take the
reins, and hence, we have bad re-
suits. Parties must and will exist
and must and will be what their ac-
tive men make them. Nine-tenths
of the members of q party may be
good and honest men, moral and pa
triotic, intelligent and virtuous, but
If they are disposed to have nothing
to do or say in politics, the one tenth
composed of men who are active be-
cause they have some personal incen-
tive, will control the action Of the
party and make it dojust such things
as it should not do-such things as it
would not do If its better men would
act their part and exert their
influence as far as possible to prevent
wrong in the party and keep it right
in principle and action.
At best, however, there is always
much that is unpleasant in politics,
and especially in a campaign. But
no man should neglect duty because
it is unpleasant. Elections are una
voidable in republic; parties and
campaigns follow as consequences.
We all want fair and good nomina-
tions, fair campaigns and elections;
we want good men and good princi-
Piles to prevail; we want honest and
competent men in Office; we want
good laws and justt execution. In
order to secure these results we must
bear what there is unavoidably un-
pleasant in the annual political cam
paigns. Ifall would cheerfully car
ry their due share of duties, as they
.sRlnat nlsAsns nsa11e~s sa1sys~ssy ~snucis
that is wrong and unpleasant in these
matters might be corrected or avoid.
