Capt. S. S. Mckinley Of Mitchell
county, Iowa, who carries six
wounds on his body, and whose
broken and shattered health com.
pels him to spend his winters in
Florida, has recently returned from
there, and says since Congress be.
gan its session the people Of the
south are daily becomming more
arrogant and impudent. They have
an idea generally throughout the
country that the Congress will give
tke1n back what they lost in the war.
He says at St. Augustine there is a
pauper who one day said to him:
"Once [ lighted my cigar with fif-
ty dollar bill and l shall do it again
when we get pay for what you rob-
bed us of and stole from US. AT a
station in Tennessee four stalwart
natives came on the train, and see
ing the Captain and other northern
ers, they began to talk, and, with
much glee asserted that they had
control of Congress now, and that
it wouldn't be many months before
no id Yankee would be allowed

In the Millers' convention at Chi

Red Wing in this State, spoke of
his personal observations Of different
types Of wheat, as made on a recent
trip to Europe. The most popular
wheat he saw there was the Thesis,
and some Of this he had brought
hither with view to trying it on
American soil under the influence of
an American sun and climate, and
when he has found out what sort of
-four it made, he would report to
the association. The report by
Mr.. Brown, also Of Red Wing, did
not recommend any particular line
of grain for milling as superior to
others, but urged upon millers the
duty and ACCESSIBILITY of using moth
ing but the best qualities, and per.
sistently refusing to encourage the
propagation Of grain of inferior at
tributes. It was recommended that
millers should keep experimenting to
ascertain the varieties of wheat most
adaptable to their localities and when
they had learned it, encourage farm
ers of their section to the cultivation

POLITICAL NOTES.

The Democracy is waiting and
hoping for a good chance to back
down on the sly.
The Democracy has lost the coun-
try, but it has won to its. side Dr..
Mary Walker, pantaloons and all.
Tally one.
It seems to be pretty well settled
in Ohio that the Republican ticket
will be Taft and Foster, on a thor
oughly stalwart platform.
Senator Bayard should be careful
how he shows too much eagerness in
defending the State from the charge
of secession. The Solid South has
never forgiven Judge Key for admit
ting that secession was wrong.
Sometimes we buy vote or two,
Said Salisbury, of Delaware,
'sWe're bound to see the party through
Of that you must be well aware
"Often?" asked Window. Well said S.,
ssWhatever the difference is
Between the candidates, / guess
We're equal to emergencies!''
Congressman Carlisle has return
ed to Washington much s'encourag
ed' because he found the Democracy
in Newly ork united in support Of the
position taken by the party in Con-
gress. Well, well! The idea Of any
man having to 60 to New York
to find out that Tammany Hall is
solid for a stuffed ballot. box is fun
ny enough, but it IS funnier to hear
him announce the fact as reason
for encouragement.
The Republican County Conven-
tions are being held in Ohio, and are
giving out sample Of the music
which is going to give the step for
the march to victory in October.
All along the line there is one de-
mand for a united and uncomprom-
ising fight upon the new Confeder.
ate Democratic rebellion. The re-
solutions are all stalwart, aud the
speeches are the same. Everywhere
the Republicans are confident of
success and determined to put that
ticket in the field which is surest to
win it.

The lower House Of Congress con-
sumed nearly all Of last week over
the Warner silver bill. The plain
effect Of this bill, should it become a
law says the New York Tribune,
would be to pile up in the treasury
an immense hoard Of silver. The
SIS, O00,0 900 held by Germany for
sale would be in the sub-treasury
vaults in New York in less than a
month. The mines Of the United
States, producing nearly as much
every year, would empty their en-
t e product into the hands Of the
government. Every ounce ofsilyer
due to any European country in its
foreign trade would irresistibly flow
into the same reservoir. On the
other hand we should lose an equal
amount Of gold. The German gov.
eminent would sell its silver certif.
Gates in New York for gold, and
take the latter away, and we should
rapidly become a monomet allic silver
nation, and Me disasters that have
come upon india, threatening to pro-
duce public and private bankruptcy,
would be experien iced here. Having
taken the whole burden Of redun-.
dant silver upon our own shoulders,
European nations would politely de-
cline to assist US in carrying it, ey,

given to the public for the first time.

bled and one sided account furnish

some truly wonderful shots. His
string in the first inning was as long
as one Of Secretary Evarts' senten-
.ces, and the marker was nearly ex-
hausted from overwork before the
game was half ended. Grant led off
by making a beautiful cushion ca
rom, his ball turning a handspring
over the -banister;; it then waltzed
around the room, caromed on the
nose of Maharajah S dog lying under
the stove, collided with and frac-

the balls on the rail, s'froze'' them
