All the trade reports issued at the end of the

The revival Of which they speak dates from
about the same time September or October,
1870 and in many cases the impulse came
from the United States. The figures of the
American wheat harvest compared with those
OF other countries, in themselves indicate why
Americans suddenly felt renewed courage to
give large orders and make speculative pur'
chases. The wheat produced in the Union for
1879 was fully equal to the average YIELD but
all its rivals IN the markets of the world suf
fercd from deficient harvests France showed
a falling off of nearly onelourth her usual
yield. Russia nearly one-titth, Spain nearly
one.seventh, Italy ami Austria more than one

The first branch to feel the revival was the
shipping trade. 1t had suffered FOX a long
time through what experts now call "a period
Of settled gloom and stagnation.' During the

were few remunerative freights, the demand

sympathize with reform; that is not
enough. They must be men who are
not only intent on this reform, but men
who can make themselves felt as re-
formers. Scores of the 141 farmers of
the last legislature favored reform, bat
few, very few indeed, Of them knew
how to make themselves felt; they did
not know how TO express and impress
their views on the legislature. They
could vote, but the difficulty is to get
proper bills where they can be voted
upon. Look out then not only for hon
est, reform men as your candidates, but
men who are aggressive reformers;
men who can enforce their opinions,
and get reform ideas into laws. That
was the value of the members named
they were sound and made themselves
.felt in the legislature.-LwdJoso Tribune

OUR COUNTY CONVENTION

ton on Wednesday next. The path,
way of our duty is always plain and
clear in placing before the people can,
didates for large or small offices, and
nothing should turn it aside. 1t is tC
Away place in nomination good, clean
men, men that are open, firm outspok.
en-, and stand by their convictions al
ways. There is too much political
trimming. Let the people seek the
man, and not the man the people. II
is dirty work to be teasing for office
and the American people are becoming
DISCUS ted with it. We discuss the mer
its Of no man. Let the delegates chos
en- at the primary meetings attend the
Convention, and select such men fol
standard bearers as the people will ap
prove Of. Let it be done Independent
of wire working. Such dirty work
should be ended everywhere. We say
then it is all plain and straight work
for every Republican, and also for the
Convention
