One of the most barefaced swindlcs ever
perpetrated on people is that of estimat-
ing the wheat crop of this state this season
at upwards of fifty million bushels, when
the fact is it will hardly average with last
years yield The crop has been purposely
overestimatcd by the wheat sharks, their
hired tools, sanguinc farmers, enthusiastic
correspondents, and a few other blatant
fools who always have a big yield, in their
mind. OF course their is mn object IN this
Wholesale exaggeration and criminal false
hood, and the end to be accomplished is
the temporary depression in prices, which
these worthless take advantage of, kno wing
that the farmers are, generally speaking,
compelledto sell their grain at the earliest
possible moment, and hence if the price
can only be kept down until after The bic
rush, the spceulator will have swindlcd
The farmer out of about half the value OF
the grain, and made handsome profit.
Our reasons for asserting that the yield
has been largely ovcrcstimatcd, arc these:
Enquiries have been made of reliable par
ties, who have visited almost every town
ship aud county in the state, and have
bad M opportunity Of knowing exactly

Mrssrs Favroe s. Mortified are taking
in all wheat they can handle, as they have
not yet completed their grain house, but
will in few days, and then they will be
able to handle all the wheat that may
come. On last Monday they opened d
large stock Of general merchandise, in the
store formerly occupied by o. P. Rice &
Co.
Stevens county is the paradise for hun
tiers. A day or two ago Stan and Harry

Since our last issue the Maine defeat
as it was termed-has been turned into a
victory for the republicans, the losses sus
tanned in the cities being counterbalanced
and overcome by returns from the more
remote precincts of the state, which show
republican gains. There is however il
seeming loss as compared with 1876, but
when we consider that the contest was
purely local one, that the mongrel fusion
ticket, represented the combined forces of
greenbackers, democrats, independents
and nationals, the result is a substantial
victory for the republicans, which fore.
shadows the result III November, at which
time the opposition will not be united the
issues then being national instead Of local
The effect of the result of this bitter con
test, hard fought battle ard great victory,
will spur the republicans to greater efforts
it will make them work with zest as
never before; reveal the danger of ovcrcon
fidence; expose the schemes and intrigues
of the enemy; their own weak points; the
breaches in the defences of The opposition
their plans, tricks and mode of procedure
With such great vantage, with the word
"victory" inscribed on their banners, the
republicans have only 10 work together
carefully, cautiously and aggressiveIy, and
success, triumphant success, will crown
their efforts. There is no question but the
republicans will be more diligcnt, enthusi
aslic and vigilant, now that after bitter
struggle and wrestle, with the allied forces
of the opposition, they have, single han
dcd, yanqulshcd and routed their oppo
nents.

Latest adviccs from Maine are to the
effect that the vote for governor is very
close. and both parties claim victory. In
a telegram to the republican headquarters
Senator Blaine states that the vote for
governor is so close that it will require the
official count, which will not be taken till
January, to decide the election. How.
ever, he is of the opinion, that Davis, the
republican candicate, has plurality. The
last nights dispatches, however. give
the election to Plaisted without any
doubt
