into market and sell at what prices
they can get. Eighty-6ve cents is
the value they place on Minnesota
wheat this year.
Owing to the interruption, that
have occurred during the year, in
our habit of keeping a record of in
juries to the crops of breadstuffs, in
different localities throughout the
world, we are not so well prepared
as we have been for the past four
years to give an opinion about the
markets from now until next har-
vest. But from the imperfect rec
ords we have kept, we see no reason
why every bushel of good No.
wheat in this State should not bring
an average of $1.oo to the produc-
ers. Were it not for the general
financial depression the country is
suffering, we'should place the figure
considerably higher. One thing is
certain: every bushel of wheat rails
ed will be needed. There will be
no surplus. If the reported destruc-
ton to crops of breadstuffs are ex-
aggerated to double what they really
are in extent, the supply must still
fall considerably below the usual
demand.
Let farmers, then, act judiciously
in selling their wheat. Don't morte
gage your farms to raise money to
pay your debts, in order to hold it.
That will hardly pay and is attended
with danger; but sell judiciously.
Hold back all that it is not actually
necessary you should sell; and, re.
member, that it is rarely the case
that prices are not better in the
spring than in the fall. But sell
what you must sell in the fall, be-
tore navigation closes, for prices are
always likely to be higher then than
during the winter months, when rail
roads alone are depended upon 70,
transportation to market.

The Price Of Wheat.

"Sell your wheat at once" says
the Pioneer-Press, mo matter what
price you get" and the press of the
the State generally echoes "Sell
your wheat at once, farmers. We
think the Press has given this ad-
vice heretofore. Last February it
told its readers that there would be
no foreign demand for wheat; that
every market was overstocked, and
prices must 60 down. AT that time
the price in Rochester was &c. for
No. I. Olmsted county farmers had
been educated to believe that the
newspapers were not likely to give
them good advice in matters of this
sort, but the reports were so gener-
ally unfavorable that many Of them
lost faith, and some were induced to
sell, Notwithstanding assurances in
the Farmers Monthly that the
price would advance as soon as nav
igation opened.
False quotations from English pa
spers were published todeceive them.
The Mark Lane Express was
made to say that the supply on hand
in Europe, with what was in sight,
was nearly adequate to satisfy the
demand until harvest. What that
paper really did say was: that the
supply in foreign markets generally
was nearly exhausted, while the le-
mand for consumption was unusu-
ally active. Our home papers, also,
persisted in exaggerating the pro-
portion Of the crop still in first
hands in this country. 1t was cur
rently reported in March that the
farmers still held fully half the en-
tire crop, or more, when less than a
third of it was really in their hands.
A few weeks sufficed to show that
these reports were manufactured
purposely to induce the farmers to
sell at low figures, and that the pa
pers which urged them to sell were
laboring for the spectators. 1t
matters not whether they did this
purposely or were themselves de-
ceived. The fact proves that they
are unworthy the confidence of the
people, for through these misrepre-
sentations last year alone the farm
ers of the State lost about ST., 7oo,-
900 by hurrying their wheat into
market. But this circumstance does
serve to deter these same papers
from stepping forward again and
profering advice upon this subject.
The present wheat crop is, first,
exaggerated largely ito production
and, secondly, the injury it has sus
tanned by the incessant rains of the
last SIX weeks is greatly underrated.
Dealers are led to expect a surplus
fully one-6fth larger than will be
found to exist, and they will want tc
reduce prices correspondingly; and
the Press and its echoes are agair
urging farmers to rush their grain

in the basement with w Drew, Of
Winona, as chairman. About 60 DELE
gates were in attendance. The disci-
pline requires one lay representative
from each circuit to attend this confer
ence. The chief business is to elect
two delegates, from each conference to
attend the general conference which
meets in May 1876, at St. Louis.
Revs VIM McKinsley, D c Johns, G |
Hobart, J Brooks and L Wright were
appointed a committe to convey the
fraternal greetings and congratulations
Of the ministerial to the lay conference.
Elder Cobb stated that Rev S T Ster-
ritt was announced as transferred to
Oregon confer ence; that the transfer
was not in accordance with the wish,
and was without the knowledge of Bro.
Sterritt. A motion passed that the
conference request Bishop Peck to
transfer S 7 Sterritt to this conference.
A H Abbott and S Spates were
made supernumerary, and VIM T
Broughton was located.
The hour having arrived for electing
delegates to the general conference,
after four ballots, Revs VIM Mckinley,
G w T Wright and G Brooks were
elected; Revs W G Rice and G Ho-
bert being elected as reserves.
The electoral conference met again
in the afternoon and A J Goodrich Of
St. Paul, and j D Blake Of Rochester,
were elected delegates, with j N Hall
as reserve.
| On Saturday morning the committee
reported that the charges against Rev
E S Bowdish were not sustained.
| At eleven o'clock, the ceremony of
the reception Of the greeting Of the
electoral members took place. The
members of the lay conference marched
in and took their seats. They were
f welcomed by Rev. William Mckinley,
and W. S. Drew, of Winona, replied.
> This was an interesting ceremony.
In the afternoon Dr. w j Freeman
| delivered an address on the Sabbath
school.
The missionary anniversary was helc
, in the evening.
On Saturday morning Bishop Wyle,
addressed a large congregation, preach
: ing very acceptable sermon. Ter
persons were ordained deacons; and j,
the afternoon after sermon by Rev T
> = Johns twelve elders were ordained
In the evening, Rev j L Hanser del;v
, cred an interesting sermon.
On Monday, Messrs. Thoma,
? Simpson, VIM. R. Marshall, H. G
Harrison, Jabez Brooks, D. D., DR. j
I M Williams and J R Creighton were
elected trustees for Hamlin University
Resolutions were adopted for making
an especial effort in behalf of the Uni.
versity during the approaching year.
After which Rev E R Lathrop, on
behalf Of the conference, presented the
Secretary, Rev J R Craighton, with a
handsome watch and chain, as token
OF their appreciation of his services as
Secretary for the past seven years.
| The afternoon was spent in private
session, to make up the list of appoint
ments; and on yesterday morning, these
were announced, prefaced by some very
sound and timely remarks by the Bishop.
Some time was then spent in conclud-
ing the business when the conference
adjourned.

any Of its causes. In the face OF the fact
that the existing volume of currency il
greater than can be absorbed by business,
and in face Of the fact that the recent falls
Of prices have followed repeated intlations,
any attempt at increase of the currency
would be worse than Intellectual to revive
prosperity, for it would interrupt the heal
ing process Of industry. It would be worse
than futile to restore confidence for it would
create distress and new uncertain ties in
business, parslyxe the beginning of enter
prise, rob labor Of its too scarce employ
ment, and while sitting the progress Of ad-
ministrative reforms would inflict lasting
dishonor upon the credit, the intelligence
and character of the country.
We agree with the New York
democrats that we already have
more than enough of the bank cur
rency.:. We will go farther and con-
tend that any of it is more than
enough, for the simple reason that it
costs the people annually about FL
per cent. to use it; for instance:
Interest on bonds, 6 per cent. in gold
equal to 6.3 in currency for the vol
ume Of bank notes issued, 63
Exemption from taxation at 3 p. c. on
80 per cent. Of a nount of notes, 81
Interest on loans payable to banks. IL
Total cost, 2l.
No wonder that the "existing VOL
ume of currency is greater than can
be absorbed by business!" The
wonder is that any business can be
done, with such currency in use. 1t
is too costly. No wonder that en-.
terprise is paralyzed and labor rob.
bed of its too scarce employment
by such system Of finance. But il
the New York democrats mean to
say that we have too much of an
honest, cheap currency, then they
utter what is wrong. We need thai
sort of money and an abundan,
| supply of it.

negotiating to enter nolle prosequi in

he wishes TO enter nolle. Houlton,
however, has refused to settle the case
in this manner. Moulton and General

Pass HIM.-Chas. Francis Adams has

probable connection with nominating

OF egotism runs through the epistle, Il
being evident that the old gontleman's
vanity is tickled. while his sober judg.
nnent tells him any effort in that direc.
ton would be futile. A great statesman
once said that the Presidency was Ar
Office neither to be sought for or de

and still holds good. What is needed IL
our next President is strength, sagacity
and promptness Of action, together with
brains in their prime. There was tim
when Chas. Francis might have beef
found possessed of these requirements
but that time has gone by for him neve
to return. Sensibility and aged impo
tency will be at discount in American
politics for the next fifteen or tvent!
