gong on about her or to understand anything
spoken to her.
This morning the woman appears much bet
ter. Rev. Father Walter was sent for, and it
was aSCertained that she came from Upper
Marlboro, Nd: that her husband, Joseph
Phelps, is wheelwright at that town. She
also states that owing to her habit of intOyica-
tlon her husband purchased tickets ana sent
her and her children to New York. There

Our farmers have been told, time
and again, by the grain buyers, that
wheat raising would be soon played
ont in Minnesota, because the great
wheat fields Of Texas were about to
overstock the market. And now a
correspondent of the st. Cloud Jour-
naL-Press shows how shallow this
pretence is by writing as follows from
Mckenny, Texas:
Although cotton is a cash crop and will
always sell, there is not the money in 1t that
many imagine; it requires great attention,
and it is the common saying that 1t takes
thirteen months to the year to raise and save
cotton For all that, it is Enthusiastically the
crop for Texas The heat delusion is rap
idly fading, at least from the minds OF those
W no pay more attention to plain facts than to
the figures Of immigration pamphlets and
railroad advertisements but there are thou
sands Tho need not be told that Texas is not
the great W heat country II is represented to
be and never can be That "a State in " hich
many of the oldest farmers have abandoned
the cereal as unproitable and where the az
errgc of eight bushels to the acre Is considered
a very fair crop, should claim excellence as {
W heat country will strike all Minnesota lar
mers as rather absurd So you need not b'
surprised to hear that wheat has made q poor
showing this year.

tender.
Now it is legal tender to the labor
ing man and not legal tender to the
bondholder. If Mr.. Gold-Bug owes a
mechanic $500 for work the mechanic
is compelled to take the silver, worth
95 cents on the dollar: but when Mr..
Gold-Bug draws his interest on his
national bonds he demands and re.
ceives gold. Mr.. Gold-Bug therefore
represents a privileged class, a kind
|of law-established aristocrOcy. He
pays no taxes for the support Of the
government that protects him. and
the money that is good enough for al
his fellow citizens is not good enough
for him.
And John Sherman says this is al
right.
