REAL EsrATE.-As we have already
noted, the prospect for building in Wheel
ing this coming season is quite fair. The
same prospect is poted at Cincinnati, in
the Gazette Of Saturday. It says that
1.-THE trade in improved property is
represented as being unusually brisk, the
demand being mainly for medium.priced
dweling-houses. During the past winter
the business in this kind Of property has
been greater than during any winter Tor
the past six years, and this is regarded
as an indication OF an unusually brisk
spring and summer business"
A New York letter in the Chicago
Tribune says that the tendency there at
this time is to n reaction from the de-
preston in real estate. There has been
a decline OF about SO per cent from the
prices prevailing before the panic. Build
ings that cost $4,000 to put up three
years ago can now be put up for $4,000.
In regard to house rents, the Cincin.
natl Commercial Of yesterday Sunday
speaks as follows:
While there has certainly been but little
diminution in house rents since 1879, fur
nished and unfurnished rooms are rent.
ing at much lower figures than they have
done for years. Furnished rooms which
rented for Sl2, Sl5 and $40 per month
three years ago will now rent for S., Sl2
and Sis. The cheaper class OF furnished
rooms in lodging houses, which formerly
brought in S., 50 and $40, will now rent
for S., 50 and S. per month. There is n
much less falling of, comparatively
speaking, in tho rent OF unfinished
rooms; but in the West End and German
districts the reduction OF rent is marked.

SCARCITY OF MoNEY.-In the GQuiet
Dell" correspondence Of the Clarksburg
m -. IL a.

SCARCITY OF MoNEY.-ln the "Quiet
Dell" correspondence Of the Clarksburg
Ttlegam, We find the following item:
Scarcity of money seems to be the gem
eral complaint in this community. Some
Of our people seem not to understand why
II is so scarce; others, however, think the
fault Is with the administration Of public
affairs at Washington. The more Thoughts
full say II is owing to the balance OF trade
being against US. A large portion OF our
flour, bacon and shoes comes from other
States, and not n triling cause is owing
10 the high taxes that is levied upon the
people.
There is no mystery about the scarcity
Of money in "Quiet DELL" The explana.
ton Is found in the last sentence Of the
above paragraph. An agricultural COM
munity that imports It's -four and bacon
from other States is not likely to have
much surplus capital in its midst, unless
indeed these importations are counter.
balanced by expectations Of something
else. We presume "the balance Of trade"
is against "Quiet DELL" as suggested
We judge 80 from this paragraph in the
same correspondence:
"The farmers have almost got the
blues, fearing that winter has just begun
Surely il this winter lasts much longer
they and every one else will altogether
have the blues, and many deaths will oc.
cur among the animals"
This paragraph would seem to indicate
that the farmers of "Quiet Dell" have
nothing to sell at present, and are close
pressed for enough Of hay and grain
whercwith to exc out tbe winter feeding
Of their stock.

GRANGER NEws.-An item Of news

GRANGER NEws.-An item OF news
from Dayton, Ohio, reads MS follows:
1t is now very generally admitted that
the peach crop il mainly killed. Other
fruit, excepting early pears and sweet
cherries, is not much damaged.
A special to the Cincinnati Commercial,
OF Saturday, from TitIin, Ohio, reads thus:
In conversation, n prominent fruit
grower said, to-day, that peaches were en-.
tirely destroyed, apples and cherries bad
ly damaged, and the smaller fruit not
much injured.
The Pacific Rural Pres speaks Of the
uses and destiny of the Grange az follows:
"The Grange is worth to-day almost as
much to agriCulturalisis Of the country
as the common school. 1t is, in fact, the
only primary school we have which is de-
voted to agricultural instruction; it is
there where our sons and daughters are
first taught the importance of agricul-
tural instruction; it is there where they
are taught to love and take pride in
their calling; it is there where they are

tural industry which past generations
never dreamed Of, and II is from thence
that an influence is to 60 out which in
few years will ill up our agricultural col
lcges with young men, and young ladies,
too, with class Of students that will not
turn their backs on the farm, or seek
other respectability or utility.
The "Wayne township" correspondent
Of the GAINESVILLE Enterprise says that
potatoes are so low in price in that vici-
nifty that hundreds OF bushels will be fed
to stock. He also says that farmers have
been hiring hands for the summer at
from $40 to SIS per month.
In view OF statements and counter
statements in the. Moore6eld papers, it
becomes interesting to know whether the
"Grange" can sell man suit Of clothes
for Sl4 that elsewhere would cost S3l.

rain has been descending in torrents ii
great portion of the time for the past

The Democracy had always endeav-
ored to cover up the corruption of its
party, but the Republicans had
sought out the thieves and rascals
and punished them pursuant to the
brave and determined enuncation of
General Grant, "Let no guilty man
escape"
In conclusion, he said he had sub
mitted plain statement of the facts
and principles which properly con-
Germ the campaign in Washington
Territory, and now the whole mat
ter was submitted to the people for
their decision at the polls in Novem-
Der.
AT the conclusion of the speech
the audience applauded in the heart
lest manner, the Band played, and
responsive to frequent calls from the
audience, Capt. VIM. II. Swallwood
took the stand, and in an hours
speech thoroughly ventilated the
sham and ridiculous pretensions of
Mr.. Judson and the infamous career
of the Democratic House of Repre-
sentatives at Washington. He was
constantly interrupted by the loudest
applause. Thus ended one of the
most enthusiastic political meetings
that has ever been held in Clarke

To-day MIR. Hathaway read the fol-
lowing statement at the meeting held
here by Judge Jacobs:
"Previous to the Kalama .Conven-
ventio:l, several weeks, on the way to
Portland on the steamer Vancouver, |
met Mr.. Farnsworth, who said to me,
Il would like the nomination for Joint
Councilman in the upper district. u *
just previous to the delegates to the
Territorial Convention leaving Van
couver for Kalama, saw one or two
of them and advocated MIR. Farms
worth's nomination. Not content with
that, as Capt. W. II. Smallwood was
leaving Vancouver, sent down by Kim
still urging Mr.. Farms worth's nomina-
ton. So far know this statement to
bd true. What follows | have only
from Capt. Smalwood and the delegates
in the convention, Mcssrs. Tooley,
Daniels and j. IL. Fletcher. There
came before the delegates from the
four counties the names Of three or fur
candidates, Mr.. Farnsworth being OF
the number. Not being able to agree
upon either one, after considerable dis
cussion, some one proposed my name
and received unanimous VOTE"
Is the above statement true: lfit Is
true 1 have my opinion Of Mr.. Farms
worth, or any man who knowing it to
be so will vote for him.

Judge Jacobs Speech.

ington Territory, was the occasion
of considerable stir in Vancouver.
When the steamer willamette Chief
was sighted coming down the river,
procession was formed on the cor
ner of Main and Sixth streets, and
headed by the est Infantry Band,
marched to the government doch.
Upon the landing of the steamer,
Judge Jacobs being on board, he
was warmly welcomed by his friends
who were out in full force to con-
graduate him upon his healthy APP
pearance and the success of his can
vass. The procession Immediately
reformed and escorted the Judge to
the residence of Mrs. Schacben,
where preparations had been made
to receive him. During the remain
der of the afternoon he was called
upon by many citizens of the town,
large number Of whom partici-
pated in banquet, given at 5 O'Clock
by Mayor Sohns, in honor of the
distinguished visitor. Notwithstand-
ing the inclcmency of the weather,
Browns Hall at 7 o'clock p. NJ. was
crowded with people to hear the
promised speech of Judge Jacobs. A
number of people were in from the
country, thus exhibiting lively in
tercst and commendable zeal in the
good cause. The Band was present
and entertained the waiting audience
with music. AT the hour appointed
the meeting was called to order by
the Chairman of the Republican
County Central Committee, and up
on motion, Hon. S. D. Maxon was
chosen as President for the evening.
Judge Jacobs was then introduced,
who made forcible and telling
speech, occupying an hour and a
half. He said he had been to Con-
gress as Representative of the
whole people of the Territory, but
since the opening of the present
campaign and the circulation of the
ridiculous and absurd stories by the
opposition in regard to him, nc had
sometimes doubted his own identity
and almost wondered what manner
ofman he was. And it was not until
he had arrived at Tacoma, where
meeting his wife he found that she
recognized her husband, that his
mind was relieved of the false dclu-
sions. But notwithstanding all these
things he did not propose to engage
in personal politics. He had other
things to consider of morcimportance
to the people and should turn his at
tcntion to them.
Hc said he had been surprised and
somewhat amused at the course pur-
sued by Mr.. Judson in making his
canvass. He said MIR. .Judson, whcr-
ever he went, always asked the pco-
pie what they wanted most, and up
on their naming huge appropria-
ton for the improvement of some
river or the like, he would take the
rostrum and tell the people to elect
him and they should have the APP

self by making al manner of impos-
siblc promises, which, in the event
of his election, he could not hope to
redeem. He, Judge Jacobs, had not
pursued this course. All the prom
Use he had to make was simply that
if elected he should cndcavor to do
the best he could for his constituents.
The charge that he had said that
it took eight on ten months for a
Delegate in Congress to get &C
quainted was untrue. lie had not
said so; but even if he had, there
was too much truth in the statement
