the wheat contained in the measure
and then removed. The weight Of
the wheat in the measure shall be
ascertained BY placing the measure
with the wheat contained therein
upon scales, and the weight Of the
measure deducted from the total
weight Of the measure and wheat so
weighed this result multiplied BY

weight Of a bushel Of said wheat.
Second When the two-quart
measures used to establish the grade
Of wheat, the Stacy filler, adapted to
the two-quart measure, shall be ad-
justed thereto, with the valves
closed. Three quarts, or so near as
may be, of the wheat to be tested
shall then be placed in the filler.
The valves will then be opened in
the same manner as with the half

pass into the measure until full. The
valves shall then be closed and the
remaining wheat in the filler poured
out. The wheat contained in the
measure, with filler and measure
combined, will then be weighed by a
balance which shall be adjusted so
that it shall demonstrate the weight
Of the wheat contained in the mea-
sure and represent the number Of
pounds contained in measured
bushel of said wheat.

The Pioneer. Press has taken SC

The Pioneer Press has taken some
pains to ascertain with some def.
niteness the views of the leading
politicians of both political parties
throughout the State in regard to
the next Presidential nominations,
and finds that the Republicans are
almost universally in favor Of Grant.
The prejudice against a third term
seems to have wholly disappeared in
the apparently unanimous convict
ion that he is the strongest and most
available candidate, and the leader
needed by the country in the. pos
sible crisis threatened by the ag-
gressiveness Of the southern Demo-
cracy. On the other hand Tilden
is generally, though with much less
unanimity, the choice Of the Demo-
Gratis. He does not excite enthusi-
asm, but it is thought sympathy
for his last defeat and his proved
mastery OF political methods, which
it is believed will insure the carry
ing Of New York and other doubt
full northern States. make him the
strongest candidate. Only single
Democrat was found who frankly
declared he would not vote for Til.
den if nominated. The Pioneer Press
says: ''The decided and almost en-.
thusiastic preference of Republicans
for Grant, almost to the exclusion
of any other name, is a political
phenomenon arising from: such a
complexity of causes that it is diff
cult to state them. The general re-
vival of his old popularity is un.
doubtedly due chiefly to the reaction
of northern sentiment caused by
the spectacle of Solid South actual
ly controlling one branch of the
government and preparing to sieze
another. This threatened restora-
ton of the late southern confederacy
to the control Of the government
naturally alarms the patriotic senti.
ment of the North-perhaps to a
degree entirely disproportionate to
the real danger-and in this emer.
gency it is natural the Republicans
should turn to the great chief whose
fortune it has been to be popularity

embodiment OF the patriotic senti.

Legislation and Lilo uOr.


The acts of our public men are sub
ject to review and criticism. We send
men to our legislative assemblies to
represent us; and we expect them to
do it. We expect they will demean
themselves in a proper manner whether
the legislation they are called upon to
consider is in harmony with their views
or not. We expect them to receive all
petitions properly and respectfully pre-
sented in a gentlemanly way and treat
them accordingly. There has recently
came into my hands a paper setting
forth the reception the liquor prohibi-
tory bill introduced into our last legis-
lative session received. The bill itself
ence of opinion as to the wisdom or
necessity of such a measure. Even a.
mong temperance people there may not
be altogether unanimity of sentiment.
Some may think that the present law
is sufficient with the present prevailing
temperance sentiment. It is certainly
strong enough to close out the liquor
business kfrom any community where
puplic sentiment is strong enough; and
after all this is the essential think.
The law should reflect the mind of the
people and express IT, cir convictions.
The bill in question may have been
all t;and it may have been wi etc at
tempt it's passage. On these points we
do not propose to express our views in
this article. Our object is quite diff
ferent. The reception given to the
bill is what we would now invite at
tention to. The bill was presented
with numerously signed petition in
manner satisfactory to all concerned.
It was referred to committee Of five
with instructions to report by bill or
otherwise. When the time for the
consideration of the subject finally
came there gathered large assembly
! in the representative hall both Of the
friends and enemies Of the measure.
In the crowd were many ladies who had
worked hard for, the bill. The bill was
presented with a simple motion to re.
commend it's passage without any re-
marks to support it. The first action
taken was by our own representative
who signalized himself on the occasion
in a speech as surprising as it was of.
fensive. But his coarse and Irrelevant
speech was a gem in comparison with
some that followed, and notably DIR.
Riley's. This was perhaps about as low
and vulgaran address ever made in that
place. If the speaker had stood on a
dung heapin the middle Of q pig-pen
and had addressed himself to a crowd
of the lowest Of mankind the speech
| then would have been offensive. But

Farmers Board Of Trade.

The Farmers Board of Trade met
in St. Paul last week and established
the following schedule of grades Of
wheat:
No. / extra. To weigh not less
than 80 lbs. to the measured bushel;
to be light, sound and clean, of the
variety known as the Scotch Fife or
other equally hard.

than 50 lbs. to measured bushel,
bright, sound, clean and Scotch Fife,
or other equally hard variety.
No. 1. Same as No. 1 hard, except
to include soft variety of wheat.
No. O.. To weigh not less than Sc
lbs, reasonably clean.
No. 3. To weigh not less than 81

cided should be the case.
