State Central Com. for Montgomery Co.
THE JUDICIAL NOMINATION.

This body composed OF delegates from the
counties of Frederick and Montgomery met
and closed its labors at the Court House, in
this town, on Wednesday last
In point OF individual merit and character,
harmony and dignity OF proceeding, and II
substantial and honest reflection of public
sentiment, thoroughly crystallized, this con-
vention compares more than iavorably with
any we ever remember TO have assembled in
the county.
This action upon the part OF u body Of
men, in the execution of SO delicate and
important trust was eminently lit and
proper and must fall with weight and intlu-
ence upon the voters of this Judicial Dis
trict as well rs command the dignifed con-
sideration and endorsement Of every con.
siderate mind throughout the State.
Our Judiciary, because of its legal emf
nence, spotless purity and high integrity OF
character, has ever been the white rose in
the civic crown OF the glory and honor of
our State, and the convention seemingly
mindful of this fact have pursued such u
course as not 10 disturb its past glory or
impede its future prosperity and usefulness
The unanimous nomination of Justice
Richie to the position which he now holds
under the appointment oil Gov Hamil-
ton, TO fill the vacancy occasioned by the
death of the late Justice Bowie, is step in
this direction. His high integrity of charac.
ter, his ripe experience as jurist and his
impartiality as Judge render HIM not only
an acquisition, but an ornament TO the bench
But few men who have been so long in
public life can point to record Of more
exalted purity Of mind and heart than
Judge Rtchie-iew men possess to a greater
degree larger share of public confidence in
relation 10 all of the various trades and pro.
LESSONS Of life, and the endorsement of the
convention by the people in November
next, will be handsome and telling tri.
butte To moral and professional worth.

THE SPECULATION IN GRAIN.
Those interested and who have watched
the commissions in the grain market during
the past ten years cannot fail, after consid-
Grafton, to arrive at the conclusion that there
has been an extraordinary speculation in
grain during the past few weeks throughout
the entire country, and in the Western cities
prices have gone up at rate almost unpre-
cedented in rapidity. Wheat and corn have
been the leading features in the trading, but
the wild fight has covered nearly all kinds
of breadstuffs and produce.
The experience of the past points to an
early and heavy break. From examination
and inquiries we find that nine years ago
this month great wheat corner gave way.
The break in wheat for delivery in August
was more than 40 cents, and the decline in
price Of wheat for delivery the next month
(September) was about 10 cents per bushel
within two days. On the afternoon of Au-
gust 10th of that year there was decline of
20 cents per bushel. The highest point
touched by wheat at that time was about
$157 per bushel, but gold was then worth
about $1.15. The present price of August
wheat ranges about $1.35 per bushel, upon a
gold basis, or very nearly as high as it was
at the period to which we refer after allow
ing for "A deprecated currency. The expert
ence of that time is certainly iairer indi-
cation of what may happen, and heavy
break in the market is undoubtedly antici-
pated by the professional operators and
brokers.
If it be true that the grain combinations
in the Western cities have unloaded the
bulk OF their wheat for September delivery,
and have realized handsome profit, they
certainly feel but little interest in warding
off the anticipated break.
1t may be admitted that there is merit in
high prices for grain in view of the short
crops of both wheat and corn, but the extent
of the foreign demand is still an unknown
quantity, and no condition short of an ex-
pected famine would warrant the insane
rush for grain which has pushed up prices
for present and future delivery at so precipi-
tate n rate. If the advance in breadstuffs
and produce had been more gradual and
legitimate, there would not exist this great
danger of reaction. Wheat and corn may
ultimately prove to be worth the prices now
fixed for future delivery, but that possibility
does not exclude the chances of panicky
break in the meantime consequent upon a
a nearly common impulse among those who
have bought to realize upon their invest.

The SENTINEL has no desire to influence
its friends and readers either to buy or sell
but it is well enough to look ahead to re-
vulsion which is certainly not uncommon
under conditions like the present.
