at the agricultural department, show that
the winter wheat crop already safety har-
vested, is the largest produced ia this coun
try for many years. The spring wheat is
also in excellent condition, and an unpre-
cedented yield is anticipated. The cotton
prospects are also more favorable than last
year at this time, the product now being
estimated at upwards of 100000 bales.
The wheat crop of last year was 100000
900 bushels. This year it will be more
than 325,O00,O0o bushels. The average
export for five years has been 81, 5000 900
bushels. The largest amount ever export
ed in one year was 100000 bushels Of
this years crop not less than 100,000,000
bushels may be sent abroad
Another important circumstance in
connection with our abundant harvest is
the reduced production of southern Russia.
resulting from the disturbed condition of
affairs in the countries adjacent to the
Black sea. Recent special reports from
southern Russia report the estimated crop
of the present season at less than one-half
that of former years. Russia has hitherto
been our only great rival in the English
wheat market. Before 1872 Russia ship.
ped almost as much wheat to the markets
Of the world as the United States. Last
year the Russian supply was only one third
as great as that of the United States, and
for the present year it is shown by official
communications that the proportion of
Russian wheat will be much less. 1t is
shown by official reports that the whea,
crop in California for the present season
is small, so that the estimated surplus oil
I0O,000,000 bushels will be produced east
of the Rocky mountains, and must reach
| the seaboard by rail or river.

whether silver is to be remOnetized, oil

How is this q?

Though much has been said about the
strike and everybody knows many of the
originators we're sincere 10 the assertion
that they were not receiving living, it is
evident from the following, some of them
are ia no worse condition in this respect
than they have been for some years past
We copy from the New York World.
The assertion that the strikers on the
railways have been driven to their violent
acts by such reduction in their wages as
left them mot enough to live on" is utter
ly at variance with the facts in th5 case.
The Tribune yesterday, showed that the
engineers aud firemen on the New York
and Pennsylvania lines have struck against
rates of payment which are actually 80
per cent. higher than the same classes of
railwaymen received 10 1860, while the
average OF prices of the necessaries of life
(including in that term many articles
which, twenty years ago we're regarded as
Injuries, such as coffee, tea and tObacc0)
are but per cent. higher than in 1860.
All the demagogues 10 the world cannot
befog the plain meaning of this simple
statement. Nor yet Of this which we add
to it, Ia 1873. before the panic, when
the whole north and west was up in a
balloon, the average monthly wages of
railway engineers aud firemen in Maine,
massachusetts,, Pennsylvania, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky and Missouri, as tabu-
lated by the chief of the United States
bureau OF statistics, were as follows:
.bSI. II
Nlremeh' 1912
The wages Of these classes in Pennsyl.
vania in 1873 were lower considerably than
10 any of the other states mentioned, and
yet these are the classes which now In
1877 arrogate to themselves q right TO set
aside the laws OF the land and Interfere
with the comfort and the daily bread of
great masses Of their industrious fellow
citizens because they find it impossible to
live on the following wages which are now
offered them;

1t is gratifying to be able to record that
the real strikers have borne themselves
with discretion. The men who chiefly
make up the mob belong to another class,
the class of people who expect to five with.
out work, and who rejoice in disorder
which afflIcts all honest laborers. They
are like men who set fire to store in order
10 steal the goods.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1877-08-01

A striking feature of the fights with the
mob IN Chicago, we are told, was the part
which women took in them. They were
on the side Of the rioters, and they fired
on the police and threw missiles at them
from windows as they retreated past the
houses before the rioters. This was in
perfect imitation Of the part taken by the
female communists in Paris in 1870, the
petrolellses, who went from house to house
with cans of coal oil kindling fires to burn
