Much information is coming to light
regarding the census frauds perpe-
trated in southern states. \ recent
Washington dispatch says that "while
census officials are 10th to admit that
anything is wrong with the enumera-
ton in the south, they express de
termination TO have certain suspicious
counties recommended under the SUI
pervision of agents sent from WASH
ington. In this way it will be very ca
silly determined whether there j. any
ground for such heavy gains. If sam
Pile counties taken in this way show
fraud, probably the whole south will
be gone over again with provisions o.
such character as to forbid cheating.
OF course southern politicians will re-
sent any such move, and if it is not
accomplished, if necessary, before the
confederate congress assemblies again
the brigadiers will forbid it on the
score of economy or some other pre-
tense"

The Republican rout In Maine
proves to be far more complete
than was at first thought. 1t is
overwhelming. Blaine is COM
pIetsly repudiated in his own
State. Plaisted is not only elected
Governor, but the Republicans
SEEM to have carried only one of
the five Congressman, while they
oon6dentIy expected to carry four.
Nor ID that all. The Republicans
have lost both branches of the Leg.
loIature, which will result in the
dropping of that venerable old fos-
I'll, Hamlin, from the United

other good Democrat. Snow by

Tbs wh.nt crop Ut 1850.

The harvesting and threshipg of
wheat in the great wheat produc-
ing region Of the Western States is
SO nearly completed that it is pos
sible to make very fair estimate
Of the surplus the United States
will have for expectation. The es.
Inmates made before threshing, in
the great Northwestern and West
ern States, prove to have been too
high, with the single exception of
the State of Iowa, where the esti-
mates were below the actual yield.
A careful compilation, made
from late reliable sources, shows
that the yield will not exceed
4s0, 900, 900 bushels. while for do.
mestic consumption, and to fill up
depleted domestic stocks, we shall
require but little, II any, less than
500, COO, 900 bushels, leaving for ex.
port 1870, 100000 bushels. The acre.
age sown to wheat in the United
King iom of Great Britain and Ire
land is less than for the last fifteen
yenrs; aud, as stocks there are unus.
ually low, the British will require
no less than 130,000,000 bushels.
France will require from $4,000, 900
to 6O,000,00O bushels. The yield in
France for 1880 is so. 600. 900 bushels
below an average crop. Last year,
in the face Of the high prices then
ruling, France exported over
100000 bushels; but 1t must not
be forgotten that low prices on the
Continent, and in Britain, tend to
largely increase tho consumption
of wheat. OF all other European
countries Austria and Russia are
the only ones having a surplus to
export. The surplus of Austria is
estimated at less than 10000, 600
bushels. Russia will have a sur
plus of about 100000 bushels, Of
which Germany will need the
greater portion. The principal
cause of low prices in California is
the lack Of tonnage. Owing to an ar
rangement, made last winter, by the
San Francisco merchants, with the
railway companies, nearly all the
goods that form erly were brought
in ships to San Francisco now
come by rail from New York, and
freights from San Francisco to
Cork or Liverpool are double what
they were this time last year; and,
to mako matters worse for the
farmer, nearly all the vessels now
in San Francisco are in the hands
OF a "ring." 1t Is to be hoped that
the San Francisco merchants will
see the evil result of their arrange
ment with the railroads, and here
after import by vessel, as hereto
fore. II vessels could get carg oes
to San Francisco they could afford
to carry grain at the old rates,
which means difference of about
twenty per cent. over ruling rates
in the farmers favor.

Without showing the condition of

them. In order not to be ash AIMED
of them, let us use that standard
dentifrice, SOZODONT, which is
sure to keep them white and spot

no canker affect the enamel, no
species of decay infest the dental

SENATOR BOOTH, who is just
now making some very stupid Re
publican speeches, abusive of the
Democratic party and the South,
would do well to turn to his equal
~ sophomorical but far more truth
full efforts in 1875. Then he did not
entertain the extravagantly high
opinion of the Republican party
which he now avows. He told the
people then that that effete and
hypocritical organization numbered
the ground and polluted the air.
He drew much such word pictures
Of it as Carl Schurz did in 1872.
Booth was then, as now, the same
stllted and artificial politician; but,
for once, he had passed under the
dominion of reason and truth. In
1875 he could see no earthly dam
ger in allowing the Southern Brig
adiers to take their seats in the
Congress of the United States. He
thought that men who could fight
bravely for cause they believed
to be right would respect the oaths
they took as Congressman. The
Southern Brigadiers who have
sat In the Senate and House
of Representatives have more than
deserved the good opinion which
Booth expressed of them in 1875.
They have not changed, but the
popinjay Senator has. No politi-
cal chameleon of them oil has
shown moro frequent or moro vio-
lent fluctuations of opinion than
he. Such political changelings,
fortunately, never exert any influ-
ence with self-respecting men.
