Recent Chicago papers give flattering
accounts of the prosperity of that city and
the West. During the current year the
bank clearings increased over last year.
which was the heaviest in the history OF
the city 1856. 900. 900. the total for the
year being 8 .693. 900. 900. and the banks
now give n hourishlng financial exhibit.
But the chief increase has been in the grain
trade. Elevator room has been increased
over 1000, 900 bushels. There has been
nm aggregate Of grain received of l6l 600.
600 bushels. against 1873. 600. 900 in 1879.
and 60, OOO, 900 in 1870. The increase of
this year over last is in corn and oats, the
other cereals showing falling off owing
to the corner" OF 1879. which brought
out heavy quantities of old grain. This
year the receipts were 100000 barrels
OF flour, 90. 900 900 bushels of wheat, 95,
coo, 900 bushels Of corn. 22.0O0. 900 bush
els of oats, and 1000, 900 bushels of rye
and barley. The shipments this year
were 1876. 900. 900 bushels, and last year
l26,000.00O. In tie provision trade there
was also decided improvement. For
the wear ending November l. 1880, 1915
600 hogs were slaughtered. against 5.OS9
600 in 1879. and this IN the face of q
serious labor disturbance lasting through
the better part of the packing season.
The average daily capacity of the packing
houses is 100000 hogs per year. The

Seven million hogs. 1854 900 cattle and
329 900 sheep were received, and 500. 900
cattle and $50. 900 hogs were shipped.
South Carolina appears to be improving.
The legislature Of that State has passed
two bills. one of which forbids the sale OF
intoxicating liquors outside Of the in
corporated cities, towns and villages. and
in these allows the sale only under a
State license. The other bill is one max

FREE SCHOOL BOOKS.

Inspector Joseph Oppenheim at the
last meeting of the school board intro
duced an important proposition in the
shape of resolution providing for fur
nishing free books for the pupils of the
public schools. The plan proposed is to
provide books which are to be returned
as rapidly as the pupil passes from grade
to grade, so that after the first outlay the
only expense would be in keeping up the
supply.
A guarantee would be required from
the parents OF guardians Of the children
to replace any books mutilated or de-
stroyed, the pupil being deprived of the
privileges of the school in case of refusal
to fulfill the guarantee.
The plan of supplying free books has
been in operation for years in the east. AS
furnished buildings and tuition are sup
piled free, there seems no good reason
why similar policy should not extend
to text books. Inspector Oppenheim's
proposition should have serious and fav-
orable consideration.

vailed across the sea that America is a coun-
try of uncultivated millionaires, who cannot
tell good art from bad, and will pay fabulous
prices for anything bearing the stamp OF
foreign reputation. 1t is the dream of nearly
all public performers to come here some day,
to get great pile of our gold in single sea-
son, and go home again, comfortable for life,
laughing at our ignorance and protesting that
existence is intolerable in this unartistic and
uncongenial society. Perhaps we are in part
to blame for this wide spread mistake. We
have certainly paid very high prices some
times for indifferent work. But OCCASION
ally our common sense asserts
itself with emphasis. Most of us know
what sort of an entertainment Nine. Patti has
thought it necessary to set before European
audiences, and what prices she has charged
for it. large proportion of those upon
whose patronage she depends here have often
heard her in London and Paris, where well-to-
do Americans are almost as much at home as
in New York or Boston. When the Patti con-
certs were announced in this city, with pro-
gramme that even London would not have
tolerated, and at prices double those of the
Covent Garden opera, our people resented,
first, the affront to our musical intelligence,
and secondly, the singers rapacity. If they
had done otherwise they would have deserved
to be laughed at.

No little excitement was created in the
Louisville, tKy.,) circuit court when the
celebrated lottery cases were called few
days since, and the attorney for the de-
Tense produced thirty eight pardons,
signed by Gov. Blackburn, and moved to
dismiss the case of Stewart. which was
done. Our Louisville contemporary rep
resents the countenance of the district
attorney about this time as being a fit
subject for the pen of Hogarth. Follow
ing the case of Stewart, were fifty eight
indictments against Simmons and Dick
inson, set for trial at the same term OF
court for the same offense When
the first case against these
parties was called, their attorney pro-
duced fifty eight pardons signed by the
Governor, and their cases were dismissed.
The Journal is at loss to account for the
action of the Governor in these cases, and
as 'the patrician blood of the Common
wealth's Attorney mounted vigorously to
his face" when the last batch of pardons
were produced, there is evidently dissatis-
faction at the action of the Governor in
court circles, as well as among the people
generally of the State.

of any previous month in our history.
The mortality among the resident popu-
lation was neither excessive or large. On
the strength of this temporary increase
of mortality the Journal put forth the
most outrageous statement, giving St..
Paul rank as an unhealthy city. AS a
matter of fact no city of the size of St.
Paul in the entire country surpasses her
in point of healthfulness. There is prob
ably no city which, at some period, has
not had an increase in its death rate for a
single month. 1t would be equally fair
to select month after calamitous fire
or series CT fires, and declare that the sta
tistics proved that the city was the most
unsafe in the country for the location of
insurance risks

GIBsoNs energy in hunting up evidence
against the star-route rascals-or, more
likely, his publication of the results of his
investigation-has excited the envy of Mr..
Phillips, who is acting as Attorney Gen
eral, and some tf the other employees of
the department of justice. This is the
second time the discussions of the prose-
cution have been made public. Ofcourse
they bring joy and comfort to Brady
and Dorsey. 1t is strange that presi-
dent of such marked reform Characters
tics and such rigid moral ideas as Mr..
Arthur does not proceed at once to clean
out the whole department of justice
and put men in who know how to do
business and are disposed to act promptly.
Or can it be that the star-routers have
secured paramount influence with the
administration since the death of Garfield?

THE women who have been licensed by

of sending them to the penitentiary. This
is misdirected zeal in good cause. The
men who not only make possible, but
who absolutely create these vile dens, are
the ones to prosecute. If few of them
could be landed in Saltwater, it might
have beneficial result. There is never
any undue enthusiasm displayed in the

exported from this country in 1850 was
$13,Ooo,oOO, in 1860 s24 600, in 1870

increase of 800 per cent during the last
decade. No wonder Golden exclaimed
with great enthusiasm when he looked
upon the upper Mississippi country "here
will one day be the headquarters of ag-
ricultural and manufacturing industry;
here will one day center the civilization,
the wealth and the power of the entire
world" Could the same prophetic eye
rest on the upper Mississippi valley to-

JUDGE Cox's hesitancy to exclude

course might create sympathy for the
