The fires OF oratory will be Gndled in
the Republican Convention when the time
for nominations is reached. In the great
est, positively the greatest effort Of his
life, Senator Conklipg will wax eloquent
in praise Of the silent man, and will man
age his campaign throughout. Congress
man Frye, who has magnificent voice,
will present the name of the distinguished
gentleman from Maine, and it may be pos
sible that he will perform that service as
efficiently as 1t was done at Cincinnati by
Colonel Ingersoll. The name Of Secretary
Sherman will be pronounced by General
Garfield, q man whose name may be in
the ballots before the fight is over. OF the
the ap pearance Of Edmunds' name in the
Convention, the Springfield Republican
says: by the right Of his position as
Chairman OF the Vermont delegation, ex-
Governor Smith will probably claim the
honor Of nominating Edmunds in the
Chicago Convention. We could wish that
the service might fall to nobler hands
but the railroad governor belongs to the
genial order OF manhood, and will, doubt
less, make good impression on the Con-
yention. In seconding the nomination
though Senator Hoar, or Colonel Cod
man, II Hoar should be elected President
OF the Convention, it becomes the more
important that Massachusetts should
speak worthily and weighty for the candi-
date of her choice" Hoar, however, is q
Grant man, and may not talk with any
special heartiness.

The locusls have begun their ruinous
work earlier than expected. Ali through
The country they are already singing the
young fruit trees and depOsiting their
Iarye in the tender branches. They
operate on the undelside Of the branches
and soon after the eggs are deposited in
the limbs they drOOp, die and fall to the
ground. In some places where the
orchards are composed of young and
tender trees, the locusts bore into the body
Of the tree itself, in which case the total
destruction Of the tree follows. We un'
derstand from some of our country friends
that they have done much in keeping the
locust away from the young trees by
throwing Stacked lime up into the branches
and over the limbs. If this remedy is a
good one, no time should be lost in its ap-
plication.

FROM figures already received at the
Census Office, Washington, in the work Of
collecting debt and taxation statistics, it
appears that the taxable value Of property
in the United States has increased only
about one billion dollars since 1870, in
spite OF all the blooming" that has been
done. The taxable value is regarded, after
all, as the true criterion, as it is not SUBJ
iected to such violent fluctuations as char
acterizs the so.called true valuation.
The alleged true valuation Of all the prop
erty in the United States ten years ago
was a little over sSO,OOO,OOO,OOO, or more
than double the taxable valuation. The
puncture of the paper bubble seven years
ago led to such shrinkage that it is not be-
lIeved that the true valuation this year
will reach as high a figure as ten years ago,
showing that the wastes Of the war and
the imitation periods are not yet made up,
and that the present good times are not
based upon the solid foundation Of genu-
inc and permanent prosperity.

open at the Opera house with matinee q
2:30 this afternoon, and will repeat the per-
formance in the evening. The company is
highly spoken of by the press and public
The Dubuque Times speaks of it in these
terms: Last evening Humpty Dumpty and
his entire family made their appearance at
the Opera House before large crowd. He
has often been here before. but never has he
brought such an interesting and funny fam
lily with him. From the very opening his
audience felt highly pleased, and they
laughed till their sides ached and their hearts
thumped. Every actor and actress is up to
his or her part, and not one movement was
made which in any way interfered with the
general smoothness of the play. number
of new features have also been added since
MIR. Rial took the management of the COM
pany, which makes 1t still more interesting,
This afternoon a matinee will be given for
the children, which will draw crowded
house, as the admission has been placed at
the remarkably low price of fifteen cents.
The play will also be repeated this evening,
and we advise all who desire to have good
laugh to attend and take their friends with
them.
