THE new YORK REpUBLICANs

No such opportunity ever offered the
Democratic party of New York for success
as now presents itself Cornell is determined
Conklng sre as determined that he shall
not be. By the testimony furnished by Jay
Gould the governor has refused to be Conk-
ling's TOOL in his determination after fortune,
and will not lend himself to the degradation
OF the executive Office for corrupt purposes.
To this extent he is not polite, aud he must
90. Arthur believes in the old methods of
party management, and the man who
'kicks" must be disciplined. Cornell cannot
be governor of New York after the 1st of
January next. II must not be con-
cuded from this that Cornell is a fool.
o. the contrary, he is a sly old
coon, guilty of many wrongs, as the COL
umns of the APPEAL the past three days
bear witness. He has taken advantage
of his position 10 swindle even the employees
about the State capitol, and has made "blind
pools" into which con6ding friends as well
as trusting widows and orphans have fallen
to be totally iDgulfed. For that he should
be retired forever from public life, and
if possible be punished as Tweed and other
rogues have been. Cornell is out of the
way as politician and candidate, and Fol-
ger also seems to be doomed TO death. He
is failure as secretary of the treasury and
cabinet officer, and evidently made mis-
take when he left the bench. Arthur lie
anxious to get rid of him, but it is doubtful
if he will be able to do so. The contest for
the nomination for governor lies between him
and Wadswor,h, who is gaining ground
every day. He is at present State comp
troller, and was elected by majority of
1928, while Cornell owes his election to the
treachery of Boss Kelly, who gave the Demo-
cratic party away. But no matter whether
it is Folger or Wadsworth, the breach with
Cornell cannot be filed up. 1t will widen
every day, so that even without Tammany
the Democrats may be successful.

A CHICAGO correspondent of the New York
Journal Of Commerce, of Wednesday, writes
concerning the corn crop, and says: "While
there has been decided improvement in the
corn outlook in Illinois and Iowa, it is still
long way off from maturity. II is sur
prising y to what magnitude the corn crop
of Kansas has now reached. Early in July
the Kansas papers began to tell us of the
great corn prospects, and put the crop for
1882 down at 100000 bushels. AS the
season advanced the-crop prospects increased
and '170,O0o,OO0' were the figures given US.
Now IAN intelligent gentleman connected
with the Kansas City press says corn viii
show even better; sit will yield 190, O0O, 900
bushels.' We read a statement yesterday
which was said to be official which puts the
corn crop of Kansas at 2O0,0O0Oo0 bushelsP

SENAIOBIA, MISS.
The Cotton Crop Overrated-The Late
Rains Having a Bad Eject.
To the Editors of the Appeal

To the Editors of the Appeal:
SENAToBIA, August 25.-The cotton crop
is overrated; the weed il very fine, and all
of the early cotton is well fruited. Where
there is a thin stand the deficiency is well
made up by large growth of the plant and
an abundance of fruit, but unfortunately for
this country large proportion of the cotton
is late, very little fruit. aud it small-snd in
some localities, for want of rain, has shed off
much of its earliest crop OF fruit. 1t is
now raining at this point, a slow, gentle
rain which it has kept up for three or four
days. 1t may damage the cotton, and it has
already ruined thousands of bundles of fod-
der and prevented the pulling of great
deal. We are safe on bread, but there are no
hogs in the country to make meat. Mem
phis will be our meat-house next year also.
Business quiet. -

HOWARD CARROLL, the learned
and brilliant correspondent of the
New York Times, is evidently not
ambitious to 60 to Congress. Being
talked of in connection with the
nomination he publishes card say
ing he will not spend dollar to Sc
cure his election. Ordinarily such
declaration by a newspaper cor
respondent would from necessity
be true, for he wouldn't have the
dollar to spend; but in Mr.. CARROTS
case it is different, for he has lately.
married q rich wife, who would be
only too glad to 'put up" any rea-
sonabIe sum for his political adj
vancement. IfMr. Carroll should
be nominated it is hoped he will
stick to his present determination
and be defea ed. There is not nearly
so much honor in being a congress
man as there is in being a CORE
spondent with his ability, and in the
latter position he is certainly of
mora and better service to his coun-
try than he could possibly be in
Congress.

hould have been made for con-
stantly adding to the books, and
keeping the collection somewhere
in the vicinity of the times. AS re-
marked in our local columns on
Sunday, the foundation exists for a
grand library. Many If the volumes
are as rare as they are valuable, the
original selection, whoever made it,
having been wise and discriminat-
ing: bu5 as a library it is twenty
Eve wears behind the age. We hope
the effort being made to revive an
interest in it, and inject new life
into the institution, will prove
more successful than the projectors
anticipate. Being the only really
public library in the Territory, its
neglected and dilapidatedss Condition
is certainly not to the credit
of the community. Whatever
is done in the way of improvement
before the next Legislature meets,
must be by private aid 1t is believed
that much may bedone in this way,
and the books again brought into
good and useful service. 1t would
not require a large sum of money
to keep the rooms open during the
winter afternoons and evenings for
the accommodation of the public; and
a comparatively few dollars judi
ciously expended. would supply the
place with enough new and current
literature to popularize it. When
the Legislature meets an effort
should be made to elevate the Ii
brary to position in harmony with
the intellectual and educational
plane of the territo DRY.

IT APPEARS elsewhere, this morn
ing. in dispatch from Washington,
that the Mormons are to use money
to defeat Cassidy, who was, last ses-
sion, democratic representative of
Nevada. The Mormons would be
worse than foolish if they were to
support Cassidy after the course
pursued by that blatherskite in re-
ference to a people to whose votes is
due the transitory fame he has en-
joyed. And since their votes cast
against him renders his defeat alb
sOlutely certain, is is a grave conun-
drum as to what object they could
have in squandering money in Ne
vada. Cassidy is one of those blath-
erskites who. if ever given a little
power. uses it so badly that hespoils
any chance for ever enjoying it
ag ain.
