A CIIEEK(Y) CHARGE


WASHINGTON, August S.-The charge
brought against Commissioner Raum by
one j. G. Check, OF Memphis, is absolutely
baseless, and no man with grain OF sense
would have made it expecting it to be be-
lieved. Check alleges that the Commits
sioner is illegally collecting money from
distillers by assessing and collecting on de-
liciencies two and three times rs much rs
the deficiency really amounts to, and in
some cases by collecting Oh pretended def.
ciencics when there is no deficiency. He
also charges that in addition 10 fraudulent
ly collecting the money the Commissioner
iraudulently appropriatcs it TO his own use.
The whole paper from Cheek is one that
would bring discredit OH an idiot. Mr..
Cheek has been moved TO prefer his charge
by reason Of the rejection by the Commis.
sioner, OF n reiundng claim for good and
sufficient reasons and upon The advice OF
the law officers OF the Bureau OF Internal
Revenue. The charge would be unworthy
OF notice had it not found its way into
print in respectable journals.

LINCOLN, NEn., August S.-very en-

sarding the crops. It is generally believed
there will be big corn crop. Whatever
may be the condition OF the weather from
now on, barring only possible early frosis
along the Missouri river, many fields will
average fifty to eighty bushels an acre. As
m evidence OF the uncommon maturity of
corn, ears Of field corn are already
in the market with well deyeloped
kernels. Good judges estimate the aver.
uge yield ut so bushels per acre,
which, Tic acreage being nearly two mil.
lions, will make the gigantic total Of one
hundred million bushels Of corn in Ne.
braskn this year, 1t must be remembered,
however, that there is scarcely any old
corn in the. Suite, and it Is doubtful il much
Of the new crop will be shipped eastward,
1t will be used largely at home for the
stock and carried until next years crop is
gathered. Many farmers this year had 10
buy corn, though they sold earlier for a
much lower figure. About all the other
grain in the State is stacked. Where the
wheat has been thrashcd it has goue ns
high AS Is bushels to the acre. Generally
speaking, the crop is good one and will
not be less tlan 20,000000 bushels Oats
area big crop though they suffered some in.
jury. Some fields show 10 bushels 10 the
acre. The average will be about 80.
The latest reports from Minnesota show
little ground for fear of injury having been
done yet by the wet weather.
