BOARD OF TRADE CORNERS.

The question of grain corners is be-
coming a serious one not only to Chi
cago, but to the entire country. That
they have seriously affected our export
business there is no longer any doubt.
The reports of our consular agents
show that there is great dissatisfaction
manifested in foreign markets with
our fictitious prices, which render their
grain supply uncertain and their
profits precarious. The corner men
claim that they are benefactors to the
farmers and produce-raisers, inasmuch
as they advance prices. But if by
spasmodic and unnatural efforts they
temporarily advance prices, the advan-
tage to the farmer is but fleeting. But
by their continual unsettling of the
market-driving prices beyond any ex-
portable figures, thus compelling for
eign dealers to seek supplies elsewhere
they work an injury to the farmer
that is permanent, and the injury to
the business of the country is also per-
manent. Is 1t too strong to say of
such ,men-men who make their for
tunes by running corners-that they
are enemies to their country?
When such capitalists as Armour,
Mitchell, Plankinton, Fairbanks, and
others of that stripe join together for
the purchase of any of the cereals, it
means that money enough is ready to
purchase and hold all of it that may be
produced. After all that is in sight is
taken in they proceed to contract with
the balance of the public for all they
can induce them to contract for of this
same grain, which they we'll know it is
impossible for any of the contractors
to secure. How much better this is
than a huge confidence game it is diff
ficult for the ordinary observer to see.
They can make the price just what they
choose. They have the grain in store at
marketable price, and all they have to
do is to absorb the comparatively small
amount coming in at any price they
see fit. They can well afford to lose
80, 40, or even so cents per bushel on
a few hundred thousand bushels, if
they are making similarly on several
millions.
There is a strong feeling on the
Board of Trade against these corners,
and one of the new rules is to make it
more difficult to corner wheat, but the
gentlemen running the July corner
have tried to ignore that rule, and it is
understood that they will try to fight
it through on that line. The sympa-
thy of the general public will be with
those desiring to enforce the rules. II
will be much better for the trade OF
Chicago that the present corner clique
lose 100000 than make million OF
two, as they hope to do. The loss
would not seriously injure them, but
would help to deter future operations
of the kind. The market is becoming
so uncertain that investors are ceasing
to look to it for legitimate business
operations, and few years such as
that of the last twelve months will es
tablish the character Of leading mem
bers of the Board of Trade as great
gamblers, who play for high stakes
with stocked cards. There wM be less
excitement and hot blood, but large
increase of actual business, if there i:
less that partakes of the character Of
gambling allowed and square deal
enforced in all cases. Chicago Inter

TEXTBOOKS Will any book do :?
Certainly not. The master workman
may succeed with poor tools; but, the
better his tools. the greater his success.
Books are tools. Many are worthless.
Like the first rude engines, reapers,
and sewing-machines, these should
give place to those perfected by expert
ence and thought. The old education
must be absolutely reyolutionized
The principles developed by Pestalozzi
and others are accomplishing their
mission. Irrational, dogmatic, reDul-
siye processes are giving place to ra-
tional, philosophic, and attractive
methods" -BdldaDin.

Industrial Training.

A sentiment is growing up in favor
Of something more than the common
school for the youth of America. Read.
ing, writing, and arithmetic are all
very well in their way. but they do
not train the eve, cultivate the ear or
make the hand sBilful in the use Of
tools. In This respect other nations are
far ahead Of the United States. In
Australia there me over a thousand
schools, four thousand two hundred
teachers, and ninety-eight thousand pu.
pills in TECHNICAL schools. Bavaria has
one thousand six hundred industrial
schools for girls. In Denmark, France,
and Germany, there are literally hun.
dreds Of thousands of ~ ; and girls
who are not only learn@sno to read
and write, but how to work with skill.

artistic education. Americans are very
clever and intelligent, but the founda.

country have tn>he Picked mp. they are

Der Of unskilled laborers in the United
States is far greater than in any other
country. We have some few agricul.
tural colleges, and chronological in.

New York has its value also. But we

MIR. Blake, large landowner and
member of Parliament, has published a
pamphlet which contains matter of vital
moment to the food producers of the
United States, Mr. Blake is of opinion,
after having carefully examined the
facts in this country, that we have only
Just begun to supply Europe, and es.
peciqlly Great Britain, with food.
Within the next six years, he thinks,
there will be an enormous develop.
ment in the trade of provisions and
grain If this is true, important eco.
nomical as well as political results will
follow, Farms in Great Britain have
been reduced in value fully one.thhd
since The American supply of grain aud
meat has been sent to the shores OF
Great Britain. The European farmer
cannot compete with grain and meat
producing America. We have the
best land, and more of it. We can use
machinery tomore advantage than they;
and then, we have more machines.
Our farmers are fully as intelligent,
and our means Of transportation are
cheap and efficient. This vast and
growing trade will build up New York,
Boston, and other sea-coast cities. The
tide of immigration will naturally con.
tlnue to come this way. The decreas
ing value of lands is impoverishing the
nobility Of Great Britain, and will in
time necessarily lead to the revision Of
the land laws of that empire. Poverty
will also increase on the other side
while the people will become more and
more dependent on the United State.
