MINNESOTA GEADE OF WHEAT.

Although the election is over, the farmers
must see to it that the war upon the swim
ding brass kettles does not cease. It is not
question they can afford to ignore, for
their grievances, of whose genuineness no
honest man has any doubt, must continue to
be agitated until they are righted. The
present system of weighing wheat SO as to
determine tho grade is manifestly wrong, for
it is variable standard The brass tester
can be manipulated and has been so manipu-
lated as to defraud the farmers out of grade
of wheat, and the farmers must devise some
way to protect themselves against ths i.Sl-
positions that have been practiced upon
them. We must carry the fight into the
legislature and secure such legislation as will
remedy the evils. We must also declare our
independence of the Chicago and Milwaukee
chambers of commerce, and establish grade
of wheat that shall be known all over the
world as Minnesota grade. Our wheat
must find its way to market, and if known
as a distinctiyelse Minnesota grade will COM
mand better prices on the seaboard and in
European markets. Now is good time to
make the fight necessary to win success
The people are alive to its Importance, and
will act as one man for their own and their
neigbbors defense and for the interests of
the State in which they have cast their lots
1t is just the opportunity for them-is an
opportunity that will not again occur for
life time. The farmers and their friends
must see to it that this matter is not lost
sight of. Keep up the battle till the rings
are beaten and the swindling brass kettle
driven from the State.

IeeIIHS tNeTe:
The magnificent vote of W. D. Washburn in
this city yesterday represents the thoughtful
matured purpose OF our citizens to stamp into
the ground the damnable libels against Mime
apolis and her honorable citizens which owed
their origin to members Of the St. Paul Cham
Der of Commerce, and formed the dirty ground
work Of this whole internal campaign.
The above sentiment is really confrmatory
of the alleged placard, as it shows that hos
tility to St. Paul was the governing motive
which actuated the citizens of Minneapolis
on Tuesday. Such a sentiment confirms
the alleged band wagon banners, in face of
the denials and Reputable witnesses" of the
p. p. and other organs.

senting an indignity that was thrust upon
her. That kind of a quarrel was not of our
seeking. It was disgraceful to whoever in
spired it, and cannot be too severely con-
demned.
It will require several days yet to deter
mine what man and what party has been
successful. But of one thing the Demo-
Gratis may we'll boast. They have made a
gallant fight, without the backing of money
OF political influence. They subordinated
their personal prejudices to the good Of the
cause, and can point to their record with a
feeling of pride and satisfaction. Another
such campaign and the enemy will be COM
pIetely routed, horse and foot.

New Albany, Qnd.) Special to Cincinnati En-
quirer.
Letitia Brock, living at Scots
vile, iii the extreme western por-
ton of this county, came to the
city to-day and made complaint, the COM
plant to be laid before the grand jury, that
on Tuesday last Sam and Jack Terrell,
George and James Holloway, George Brock,
Alex. McFall, Charles Clark, Walter Wesley,
Herman and Robert Scott and Henry Todd,
did most brutally beat herself and Miss Mag
gle Wilson.
The facts of the case are that the two wo-
men are bad set, and have scandalized the
neighborhood in which they lived for years.
Some two years ago Mrs. Broeck's husband
committed suicide, and since then runner
has been busy in connecting her name with
his death. About the same time Mrs. Will
sons husband died. Soon an illicit intima-
cy sprung up between Mrs. Wilson and one
William Brock, who was married man,
bnt no relative of the other woman in the
caoo' 1Aey soou elOpeu, anu intense mag
nation prevailed, threats being freely made
that there would be frst-class lynching if
either ever returned. A few weeks ago Mrs.
Wilson returned, followed by her paramour.
They took up their residence with the Wild
ow Brock, and, although warned to leave
the neighborhood, they refused to go. Mean
while one Bud Davis, who had been about
the place at the time of Broeck's death,
had returned to the scene, after
having served term in the penitentiary for
robbery. He renewed his visits to the
house. Then there were more robberies and
more indignation.
On the Tuesday night referred to the
house was visited by about fifty masked men
who demanded admission. This was re-
fused and the door was battered down. Tue
women were taken and bound to post, after
which their backs were laid bare from the
armpits down, and they were most cruelty
scourged with hickory withes. The cruel
whips were laid on until the blood ran down
their backs in streams. The women both
and were then released. The men
left after warning all the victims of the out
rage to leave. Mrs. Wilson and paramour
have left the country, but Mrs. Brock, who
is woman chock lnll of pluck, says she will
stay and fight it out, and intends to have re-

day last, as they hold that the election in
October was valid. This view has been
held to be erroneous by some Of the best
constitutional lawyers in the country, and
was decided by Congress against such a
claim in the case of Balford, of Colorado.
There is little doubt but those persons
elected in October will be excluded unless
they happened to be elected also on last
Tuesday.

New York Mercury.


New York Mercury.
The assembly chamber at Sacramento,
CAL, recently was the scene of murderous
attack, which, for the time being, caused
great excitment, and has since been the
chief topic of conversation. The constitu-
tional convention adjourned before noon,
but after lunch great many delegates re-
turned to the capitol and remained in the
chamber throughout the afternoon. Shortly
after o'clock an individual named Hale,
considerably under the influence of liquor,
put in an appearance, and by his actions
succeeded in making himself obnoxious.
Sergeant arms Sherwood was called in.
and took the man by the arm to put him
out. At that moment j. Berry, joint dele
gate from the counties of Sisk1you, Trinity
and Modoc, was passing out.
The Sergeant-at-arms and his
drunken charge followed, the later expostu-
lating wildly. Suddenly he called out:
"Where in HI are you going?" Berry,
thinking doubtless that the question was ad-
dressed to him, turned and used an indecent
expression. The drunken man made some
remark to the effect that he was not address

The sergeant-at-arms, whom Berry evil

tempted to reason with nim and explain that
he was removing drunken man, but Berry
was greatly excited and struggled to get free.
He applied severe epithet3 to the drunken
man, and shouted: 'Let me get at
him, why don't you let me ge; I'll kill the =
of a -" Suddenly he loosened the SER
geant at arms clutch on him, and darting
at the unofending man, seized him by the
whiskers with one hand, and drove knife
twice or three times into the right side of
his neck. The sergeant at arms and
Delegates Tinnin and Farrell rushed On him
and forced him back over the desk, where
they attempted to get the knife out of his
hand. In the fierce struggle the sergeant at
arms relaxed his grasp of Berry's hand, md

He Drove THE KNIFE INTO THE BACK OF THE
sERGEANT's HAND,
inficting painful wounds. Thereupon all
parties relinquished their hold upon the infu-
rated man and retreated to safe distance.
Berry pocketed his knife and walked up and
down the center aisle, brandishing his arms
and calling upon the chairman to call him
to order If he dared, and kindred nonsensical
remarks. In few moments Officers Woods
and Coffee arrived, and taking him in charge
conveyed him to prison. The wounded man
walked off alone to the drug store. The
conduct of Berry was extraordinary under
the circumstances, but subsequent explana-
tons by Mr.. Tinnin, of Trinity, and others
acquainted with him, tend to cleer up the
mystery. 1t appears that Berry, who resides

This statement corresponds exactly with
the official record, excepting that notes of
State and National banks are added together
for 'sbank notes." the minor forms of cur

the quoted value of paper dollar in gold

The comparison places in strong light
SEVERAL INTERESTING FACTS.
1. The bank currency alone is more am
pie with respect to population than 1t was
before the war. The gold and silver coin
does not appear, but forms nearly as large
part of the currency and bank reserves
now as it did in 1860.
9 The reduction in iegal-tenders since
1S6s-73. when the country enjoyed extraor-
binary apparent prospe lily, has been less by
$40 O0O. 600 than the increase in bank circu-
lation since 1868.
3. The nominal amount OF the currency,
| all notes included, though less now than it
was after the panic, is actually greater now,
when the addition of silver is considered,
| than it was in the prosperous years 1851
| inclusive.
| 4. The real value, or purchasing power OF
the currency, is now greater than it has
been any year hitherto except 1865, ii paper
alone is considered. ana greater IMAM IL mas
been any year if the addition of subsidiary
silver in place of fractional notes is consid
cred.
These conclusions, however startling to in
dationists, also deserve very careful study
from those who advocate a sound currency,
and especially from those who are in the
habit of reasoning that the volume OF cur
rency controls the movement of prices. AT
glance, it is plain that the known changes
in general prices since the war cannot be ex.
planned by the changes either in nominal
amount or actual value of currency out
standing. Prices are now little lower thar
in 1860, or any year since but the nomina
amount of currency, silver, included i!
greater than it was in 1S69-71, and the golt
value is greater than it ever has been
While these figures will disturb many theo
ries, and will prove especially fatal to tin
heresies of infiationisrs, they may also war
rant some modification Of methods. If no
