THE CROPS.

From all sides come reports that the
crops never were in better condition at
this season of the year, and many are
predicting the most bountiful yield ever
known, should nothing interfere be-
tween this and harvest. The grass
hopper raid is nearly over and although
there are portions which have suffered,
the loss is probably not ten per cent
throughout the grassllopper district.
Between here and Sioux City and west
of us into Dakota, the grasshoppers are
nearly all gone and the crops are in
splendid condition. Farmers are in
excellent spirits where the crops have
not been cut.

One of the most formidable calls for
a State Convention which it has ever
been our misfortune to read is now ap-
pearing i'll all the Democratic papers of
this State. It is three decker, armed
with numerous large and small guns,
with Donnelly down in the hold. First
comes the call of the Democratic and
Liberal Republican State Central Com
mittee - then the call Of the People's
Reform Party State Central Commit
tee,', and lastly the call of the Estate
Central Committee Of the Anti-mon-
opoly Party.'' These fearful and Won
derful elements unite in calling a single
State Convention, which is to he held
in st. Paul on the 23d of next Sep
TENDER.
This ruse Of tie old Democratic party
dividing into three columns in order to
make formidable show Of strength
will not win. We have observed this
Democratic phenomenon for good
many years, end no matter what color
or cut of cloth it may wear OH the out
side, it is the same old greg worn all
through the rebellion underneath all.
Donnelly reminds us of scriptural
character Of whom it is said ''And
every one that was in distress, and
every one that was in debt, and every
one that was discontinued, gathered
themselves unto him, and be became
captain over them.''

TIE NElV FINANCE Law.

The President signed the new cur
rency bill on Monday, and it is there
fore u law. There was considerable
rejoicing in Wall Street, as it was
thought that the clause of the law re-
leasing the reserves Of the national
banks would restore great amount of
available loanabla funds to business
channels. On the other hand, it is
thought that the banks, without being
required to do 50 by law, will retain for
emergencies as large Il reserve as has
been heretofore required, so that no ex-
pansion will result from the Jaw. The
amount Of national bank circulation to
he redistributcd is mot to exceed the
sum of $50, 100000 to associations Or
ganized, OF to be organized, in those
States and Territories having less than
their proportion of circulation under an
apportionment made. on the basis of

Chicago, indianapolis, Cincinnati
and other towns went Democratic I'M
der the woman's crusade excitement
last Spring. But SO intolerable has
become the rule of the party, under the
lead Of the saloon interest, that even
the Chicago Times and the indianapolis
Sentinel, both Democratic papers of the
first water, are crying "hold, enough -
We do agree with those papers which
think this an argument against the
woman's temperance crusade. But it
certainly is a good argument against
Democratic and saloon rule.
