The crop reports from the far West are
cheering. Farmers generally are iubilant
at the glorious promise of wheat especial
". With favorable weather the chances

When a man gets an Office in Washing
ton and suddenly gets rich, people natural
ly ask how he can save so much on so
small salary. Senator Edmunds, when

Three more Molly Maguires, Hester,
Kelly, and FULLY were hung at Blooms
burgh. Pa. Monday for the murder of
Alexander Rea. a mining superintendent,
in 1870, for which no motive could be as.
signed but pure brutality. These hangings
are having great deal of effect in break
ing up the most powerful criminal orga-
nization that has ever existed in the coal
regions of America and which held such
absolute sway for about dozen years
that no person, not n member of the or
ganization, was safe for single day if he
attempted work in any of the mines and
incurred the dispeasure of the " Mollies."

Happily for the people, the next con
gress is sure TO be tolerably close in any
case, and no great harm is likely to come
to the republic if the democrats control
both branches Of it. 1t concerns the re-
publican managers more than the rest OF
us whether they learn in advance the les
son that their only hope of carrying the
country in 1880 is by pIanting themselves
on the Hayes platform of 1876, revised and
improved, or will only believe it after a
defeat in lS78.-SprtngfeH Republjcau.
