We say condemn these men and send them away
they have no business in sChO0lhOuSCs teachers.
Let the occupation rise from its sick bed Let US pay
enough money to support a num- and demand a man
or Il ,r0udR who has brains and culture. We believe
the Superintendent is man of sense, and culture;
hut he IS making a mistake and if he don't change
his plan he will soon see what We the people know !

The WHEAT CRoP.- Fifteen days ago we
printed a short article on the rise in the
price of wheat, which we judged to be
somewhat Ofa speculative character, though
it was common to the European and
American markets. The cali>e of that ad-
vance We now know To lIav" been the wei
weather and floods which prevailed IN
various parts Of France and En.laId.
Since then the wheat growing States Of the
West have had a similar experience. and
there can now be no doubt that great
quantities Of wheat and Indian corn have
been destroyed or greatly iHurrd 4
certain percentage Of the expected wheat
crops of England, France. and America has
undoubtedly disappeared, but what that
percentage is we have no means Of ;,,,...l-
tanning. We find, however, ON com.

as to the future course Of prices, but it j.

After rca'l.m: the E;Ui3u5 lrtai. and
estimate, of tn. damage 10 the CROPS,
caused by the storms and !r,.~hrt, in
England, France. and the United St.t,S. We
think it likely that our wheat crops. with
the exception of that Of California. have
suffered Is much as those of Western
Europe. If the present advance Of twenty
per cent over the prices cf the first six
months Of the calender year is permanently
established, ii is SO much added to the cost
of bread throughout the world, the wheat

and they will lose nearly as much in the
quantity they sell as they will gain in the

expense of other spectators, but we fail L
see how trade IS to be stimulated by
general, though moderate, scarcity of the
staff of life. If the crops of other nation
were short and ours full, it would help II
to pay our debts to foreigners, but in til,
actual condition of things the reverse i
! likely to be the effect Under the mos
