day, the 10th, Indiana, Ohio and
West Virginia held their elections
for State officers, in whole or part,
and for congressman. The legisla-
ture to be elected in West Virginia
will have United States senator to
elect.

TRENTON, Wis.,, Oct. 2d, 1876,
Ed. Grange Adranoe: I'VE are now
enjoying the cool breezes of the fall, and
an extra coat does not feel uncomforta-
BILE. Although many grumble at the
severe winters and heated summers we
have, yet there is no spot so healthful
as here. And we would be more
healthful should we take the pains and
care that is taken in many 'noted
healthy Countries
Farmers are further advanced with
their work now than at this time last
year.
Our Grange meets the second Satur-
day of October at 2:30 P.x. A large
attendance is expected.
The Sunday School picnic came off
last Saturday, and was a brilliant suc-
cess, althoug gh the weather was not
pleasant.
Colonel Stone, Supt., opened the SER
vices at the school house and then all
marched to Cornelps hall. They car
ried two standards, the ''stars and
stripes" and beautiful blue silk ban
ner on which was inscribed in gold
"Work for Jesus" At the hall speak
ing and singing were the order until a
magnificent dinner was served. A
number of visitors were present and
they have the hearty thanks of all for
aiding in the picnic.
Mrs. J. G. Arnold and son attended
the fair held ut Lake City last week.
Eugene Bachelor has sold his resi-
denee and will remove farther down the
river.
Mrs. Seth Lyons is i'll from over ex-
ertion.

Wheat Prospects.

The Pioneer-Press Of the 1st inst.
quotes from the Mark Lane Express,
to the effect that returns show de-
cline in the area of wheat planted in
Great Britain of $4,000 acres from
last year, and of 67S,ooo from the
average area planted during the
eight years previous to 1875. The
yield of the present crop is estima-
ted at 1o,6oo,ooo quarters. With
100000 deducted for seed, there
will remain 100000 quarters for
consumption. 1t is estimated that
England will require in the coming
year at least 100000 quarters from
the stock in hand and foreign i'm
portation, theand deficiencies must
be filled from abroad. 1t appears
from advices at hand that none of
the wheat producing countries of
Europe are prepared to meet the
demand. Everywhere comes the
statement that an average crop has
not been harvested. In view of
these facts, the Mark Lane Express
says that because of the deficiency,
much interest is centered in the
American CROP" The New York
Sun, in reviewing the general situa-
ton, says in its editorial columns:
There is plain intimation. moreover,
that the circumstances Of the case will
necessitate an advance in prices over
those obtained during the past two
years, thus furnishing encouragement to
our wheat growers that something like
4 remunerative rate will be secured for
their labors. And while We are not a
people disposed to make merchandise
Of others misfortunes, it would not be
in the nature of things for US to regret
the situation which promises some COM
pensation for past troubles and losses.
Our western farmers have had a hard
time of it Of late, what with grasshop-
pers and short crops and other discour-
agements, and tits, therefore, consoling
to contemplate brighter future for
them. And all the more so because
prosperity for the farmer means pros
perity for the people at large. Happi-
ness in the agricultural districts ia sure
to reflect itself all through the country,
and thus the bow of promise spans the
entire heavens, to insure a revival of
trade and industry, and bring in its
train those brighter days for which we
all have been waiting with patience and
hope.

Sheriff Barton, Of Rice county,
is being severely criticised for allow
ing the robbers, who are prisoners in
Rice county jail, to be visited indis-
crininatlely, by persons who are
wholly unknown and unrouched-for.
Among other visiters who are report
ed to have called upon them are
two sisters and a brother or cousin
Of the Youngers. We hope Sheriff
Barton will see to it that his bandit
captives do not give him the slip.
Many Of the hostile Sioux are
now coming into the agencies and
forts, begging provisions, declaring
that they were good" Indians who
took no part IN the recent battles,
and promising to behave well here
after. On being fed they return
to their haunts to divide their ra-
tons with the "bad" Indians, who
either will not or dare not come in
to get food themselves.
On Monday night, Mr.. Jas.
Glaisher, one of the guards of the
Jail at Faribault, shot and killed a
policeman named VIM. Henry Cav.
ernich, whom he supposed to be ap-
preaching the jail for the purpose Of
aiding the Youngers to escape.
The deceased had timely warning
and seems to have been persistentlv
foolish in attempting to approach
after he was warned by the guard.
1T seems that Mr.. A. C. Mar
tin, cashier Of the bank of Columbia,
KY, lost his life in much the same
way that Mr.. Haywood, OF North
field, did and, it is supposed, at the
hands of the same gang of ruftians.
"A portion of the island of Porto
Rico, known as the San Juan DIS
trict, has recently suffered terribly
from tornado and deluge. A vast
amount of property was destroyed
and number Of lives lost.
