CROPS OF THE NORTHWEST.

Wheat . Fair Crop-Oats an Enormous
Yield Corn q Partial Failure.
MILWAUKEE, July 26.-Trusty correspond
ents in the territory drained by the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul road system write from
1893 points respecting the grain outlook. The
burden Of the report is large wheat yield,
half crop OF corn and the largest oat crop
ever known. In nearly all parts of Minnesota
the weather favors stout growth and full
heads. The weather stopped the rust which
appeared in few counties and fine crops
are insured. The Hessian fly appeared
only to vanish promptly. Winter grain is
in about ten days. In some parts of the state,
notably in the north, corn will be total fail
ure except for fodder, weeds fostered by the
wet, cold weather having choked the corn.
The crop will be about one third the average.
All parts of the state promise an enormous
yield Of oats and excellentrye.
In Iowa harvesting is more forward, and
the condition Of crops 10 the two states is
nearly identical. Chinch bugs have appeared,
but too late to do damage. About three
quarters OF a crop of corn is expected, and fiue
weather for three or four weeks may secure 1t
from frost and make the yield considerably
larger. There is not an unfavorable feature
in the oat crop, which will be enormous all
over the state.
In Wisconsin the wheat crop is the best for
many years. Some of it has ripened too much
and there is some rust, but these are inciden.
tai, not general defects. The harvest will
soon be under way all over the state. Nearly
all the grain Is well headed. Corn will be
about half crop. The low lands have been
too wet. Oats will be the heaviest crop in
history. Rye will be good yield but deyel-
ops slowly. Barley ditto.
Northern Illinois presents no different fea-
tnres from the other states.
Wheat in Dakota is magnificent crop.
Corn is developing rapidly, though general y
backward. Oats very heavy.

Ada Alert July14: A young man named Carl
Hendrickson was killed on the railroad track
about mile above Fishers, on Sunday even
ing some time. He was found by the employees
on down freight Monday merning lying be-
tween the rails his body cut and mangled in
terrible shape. 1t is supposed he became in
toHcated and wandered out on the track and
fell asleep and in this position was struck by
night freight. He was single man about
twenty years of age.
Minnesota Farmer: The corn crop in Min
nesots, this season, is more important than it
has ever been before, on account of the large
ly increased acreage, and 1t promises to be a
fair crop In spite OF early cold weather. The
southern and central portion of the state has
put in, this year, such variety of crops, and
has turned attention SO strongly to stock that
there is certain TO be return of good times,
this fall, whatever happens to the wheat crop.

MIR. Roscoe CoNKLING is emerging
from his unexpected and disastrous
political exile. Through the machinery
of serenades, gotten up with due care,
the machine boss spoils- man is now given
opportunity to air his Stalwart elo-
auence. At these serenade speeches of
course the henchmen of the speaker ap-
plaud him to the echo, declaring in the
true vein of olden idolatry. 1T is the
voice of a God" To strengthen his
political fortunes, Mr.. Conkling is ap-
pearing in the role of demagogue,
which character he attempts to dis
guise with very thin veil: Recently he
appeared in a New York court as the
attorney of the New York Central rail-
road to resist an application for manda-
mus to compel the road to remove freight
which had been interrupted by the strike
of the freight-handlers. In advocating
the cause of the railroad, he hypocritically
professed for the rights of labor and
the laborer the greatest interest and re-
spect. He averred that he was in favor
of workingmen receiving ga fair days
wages for fair days work" The work
of the freight-handlers is unc ommonly
hard and exhaustive, so hard that it is
alleged that the laborers of four or five
different natiOnalities have broken down
and failed in attempting to perform the
requisite labor since the strike began.
The striking freight-handlers asked for
twenty cents an hour, which would
be $500 day; rather than pay
this the rich corporation put an embargo
on the shipment of freights from
New York. The railroad paid to its
freight-handlers only $40 day, and
this the arch demagogue considers pay
enough, "fair wages" with the present
cost of living, for the hard service of
freIght-handling. 1t is alleged that MIR.
Conkling received from the railroad
SIS, 900 as a fee for appearing in court in
this one case, in behalf of the railroad
and against the strikers. Was there any,
thing but insincerity in his affected SYM
pathy for laboring men? Will laboring
men be SO deceived by the snaky
platitudes of this designing man, as to
join him in his stalwart crusade to regain
political power, this fall, in the State of
New York? If this man is the High
Priest of Republicanism, and truly rep
resents its spirit and purpose, the sooner
he and his partisan followers are driven
into hopeless defeat, the better it will be
for the country, for the toiling masses of
the people, and for every interest.
