THE WHEAT SITUATION.

The eastern farmer, while supply
ing tho current wants Of 10000, 900
people, has to meet tho equally urgent
requirements Of about half that number
Of Europeans, and tho only question
with him is whether he can fully meet
this demand upon his resources in q
reason when his wheat crop is not =
particularly large one, aud when his
corn crop falls "ery much below an
average. Ia tho same way the Pacific
coast farmer during the present cereal
year will have sooner or later to supply
every Inward bound vessel with her
outward carga, and as the deet this
year promises to be larger one, and
= little prompter than usual, there is
little fear that his crsp will become a
drug upon his hands, as during the
last two seasons For tb9 first time ia
long number Of years both the Cali
fornia and Oregon farmer may expect
an open freight market throughout the
whole of the present season, and the
result is already seen in relatively
larger supply Of tonnage and better
demand and higher price for Wheat.
Freights and wbeit will now be gov
erned by the law Of supply and demand
aud as spectators will DO unable to
make handsome profit on cargoes
while selling thom at large discount on
their nominal cost California wheat
will no longer act as dead weight on
the markets of the world. Shipping
Goals to Newcastle, or, what il about
the same thing, shipping wheat to
the eastern states and Australia must
consequently cease. 1t may be differ
ent with regard to superior qualities of
flour, which are relatively cheaper here
than in the east, but net unless the
railroad reaches its absurd discrimina-
tion against the manufactured article.
The key to the wheat situation this
season is the small crop expected in
England. To Offset this there should
be better reports FROM the continent
and from India, but it is now certain
that the crops in both places have been
exaggerated and that they are smaller
on the whole than in 1881. India
especially is not likely to be near SC

If closed for any long period the conse

would naturally cause great reduction
in the shipments of wheat, or possibly
shut them off altogether unless in ths
event of high prices in England. Al

EFFECTS OF InE EGYPTIAN WAR ON 0IR
MAgkET.

"It's an i'll wind that blows nobody
good, 'and whilst the desola.ing hand OF
war Is shifting the land Of the Pbaraohs,
people Of moro favored countries are
congratulating themselves that their
markets will be advantageously affected
by transpiring events. Oae Of The very
frst results Of the Anglo Egyptian war,
is the closing of the suez Canal, the
great waterway between Great Britain
and her Indian dependencies. Il has
been the policy of Great Britain 70,
some time past to encourage the devel-
opmeat of India +; internal railways
have been projected, and the facilities
for transportation Of bread.stuirs foster.

commended by the Queen. The history
Of the last year has shown that England
is reaping the fruit of the policy thus
inaugurated The great increase in the
grain shipments from India 20 England

former years, was leading the English

American markets for bread-stuiFs would
soon DO done away with. But evehtS

time, at least, must renew the depen.
dence of great Britian upon American.
markets. The cunning that has thus
far been shown by the wiley comman.
der of the rebellious Egyptiaas,is is a con-
elusive proof that he has calculated
well bis chances. The suddenness with
which he lett Alexandria is strong evil
dence that resources were at his com
mand in the interior that could be re-
lied on in the coming struggle. Whilst
the English have all tho most modern
implements Of warfare, Arabi too, is
well prepared for II long continued
siege, and he has the advantage Of the
British forces in fshing upon his own
hearth, with stout and hardy troops
The determination he has thus far dis.
played with all the odds against him,
and the inhumanity displayed by his
followers, must convince unprejudiced
minds that the English have to deal
with foo that will fight until he is
driven to the wall, and those who look
forward to cessation Of hostilities at
the end of sixty days are reckoning
without their host All of these things
will, without doubt, have very ap-
preciable effect upor American
markets, which in years gone by and
until the wheat fields Of India were OPP
ened np, were the main dependence Of
England Tor her brealstuffs. The
Western States, and particularly the
Pacific Slope, will be most beneticially
affected by the present crisis in Egypt,
and if the signs of the times indicate
anything, there will be ready market
and good prices this Fall for all the
the surplus yield of wheat aud other
produce.

RIVER MARBoR APPROPRIATION Blu

President Arthur has sent his mes

his action BY calliRg the measure un-
eenstftutional; that is the usual de.
feRse of shysters and pOltroons. The
fact is, he fears the press Of a few Of
the Eastern cities No wonder the
reading OF his message excited mirth
In the heuse when that portion of it
was reached which said: esThus as
q bill becomes more Objectionable it
secures mere support"
Arthur Is q good judge of such mat

when q measure comes to him with
the sanction of the majority of both

sseh measure Is Objectionable. This

West, and the eyes of the western
people have been watching it with
Intense interest. They are doomed

An EXPLANATION xExDED.

The State Journal i exultant over the
fact that the Conference Committee re.
fused to sustain the action of the
Senate in increaaing the appropriations
Cor Oregon. and tacetiously asks:
"Does an appropriation in the river
and Aarbor bill, when it Is in the shape
sfan amendment backed up by two
able Democratic Senators, appropriated"
The organs Of Hen. n. @. George have
bson apolOgixing for his failure 60 se-
Osrs adequate appropriations for
Oregon, on the ground that it was an
uttsr impossibility for him to have a
larger amount inserted in the approp-
ration bin than was recommended by
the Beard ef Engineers. Mr.. Georges
position on the committee that report
I'd the appropriation bill, made it pos
sibls for him to get larger appropria-
tiCns Tor improvements in this State,
lad he so desired, but influences were
brought to bear that made him a little
lukswarm both in committee aud on
the n0er Of the house.
The 1.-TWO able Senators" referred to
BY the Journal proved that il was ros-
sible BY dint Of exertion to get larger
amounts inserted in the appropriation
bill than were recommended by the
Beard Of Engineers, and increased the
appropriations for this State upwards
Of 800, 600 when the bill was being
esasidersd by the Senate. Had the
Efforts of our able Democratic Senators
been seconded by Mr.. George, there is
no question but that the appropriations
would have remained as they were in
creased in the Ssnats. The Journal
mast remember that both the house
and Senate are Republican, and that
4r. Gssrgs is in better position to do
s6sctiva work than Grover aad Slater,
yet be has failed to do as we'll.
The Democratic press and a good
P0stion Of the Republican press con-
graduated our Senators on the result
Of their united action. They are in no
wise 10 Be reprOached for the action of
the conference committee in refusing 10
sustain them. The Democratic papers
hays no correction 70 make, notwith-
standing the fact that the Journal de-
nands it, but rather let the Republican
press show Why ATr. George did not do
Ssttsr and increase the appropriations
in the hous4, tken the confer ence com.
Rittee would have sustained both
branches Of congress, and could not
have psintod to the bill as it passed
the house as . guide for their action.
In answer 10 the Journal We will say,
that 'san appropriation iu the river and
harbor bill when it is ia the shape of an
amendment backed up By two able
Denocratic Senators" in Republican
Senate, will appropriate provided, first;
that their efforts are seconded "by
ore Republican in the house" controll-
d BY Republican majority; second,
that the bill after it has passed is not
vetoed By Republican president
