climatic or meteorological freak can now de-
spoil the agriculturist of a generous reward
for his seasons labor, and this must come
pretty soon to be severely felt as the grain is
already ripening in the fields. Rye is now
being cut and soon the reapers will be in the
fields of wheat and oats. Corn has grown
amazingly during the past few weeks and is
now advanced so far as not to require any
more working or attention. This standard
crop is at least two weeks ahead of what it
was at the same time last year. The recent
rains insure large crop of potatoes, but it
is to be hoped that the price will not get be-
low twenty-five cents bushel as was the case.

''Parties from the east remark the fine

between the crops here and those in the east.
Here they look fresh and green and luxuriant,
while there they have sickly, frost-bitten

RETREAT OF THE ORGANS.


What has come over the organs of later
They are not clamoring for an immediate
trial of the libel suit against the Sentinel
For q time they were In such mood of
haste that the whole talk was about waving
processes and abandoning all the laws de-
lays. Now there is not sentence demand
ing an early trial; no talk of waving any
process, and some of them are even limiting
that trial can not be had before the elec-
ton. Is it possible that the work of vindi-
eating the "sanctity of home and purity of
woman" can be thus pushed aside aud de-
layed? Their actions in this regard show
what sniveling cant was thier talk about the
sanctity of home and purity of woman. 1t
shows that these organs would drag down in
the mire the most sacred institutions known
to civilized man to aid in the election of
their tattooed candidate. The Sentinel has
all along made vigorous protest against
associating the sanctity of home with any
thing like the vicious character of James G..
Blaine. Now that it has made good every
word of its charges against him, these organs
have lost sight of the sanctity of home and
the purity of woman and are endeavoring to
prevent showing of the moral rottenness oil
their candidate.

CORRECT BASIS OF CREDIT.

What the banking institutions of the COM
munity are most in need OF at this tins is a
law to compel corporations to make quarter
ly or half yearly statements, under oath, of
their financial condition, including a full
description of their assets and liabilities; also
the amount of authorized share capital that
has been issued, and the number and
amount of assessments made and paid. 1t
has Become quite fashionable of late for
mercantile and manufacturing establish
ments to give over the good old fashioned
copartnership way of conducting business
enterprises and substitute stock companies
therefor, and although the plan may have
many advantages so far as the personal inter-
ests of the shareholders are concerned, it is
clear that the system without the legal re-
q9irements referred to has but little to com.
mend it to lenders of money. In fact, no
method or system of doing business that
is worthy OF credit except where the respon-
sibility is shifted upon community of
shareholders, who in turn base their de-
mands for credit upon the financial sound
ness OF their corporations, which is verified
from time to time under oath. Under the
existing law, or rather in the absence of law,
the real financial condition of stock CON-
panles is purely a matter OF guess work, and
no bank can possibly know beyond a doubt
that its corporation borrower is solvent
1t is the custom to place the share
capital of commercial corporations at
about twice the amount of actual cash

upon investigation that part OF the copart

nership, while its actual rating and line OF

less. Moreover, these assessment promises to
pay are very frequently absorbed or liqui-
dated by voting extra compensation from
time to time for services rendered, which is
applied to them in the way of credits, thus

GOOD ENOUGH.

Some of the organs are finding fault with
the Democratic press for not setting forth
the virtues and record of Cleveland rather
than finding so much fault with Blaine.
They rather hint that the former is a barren
field. This of course is not true. We have
repeatedly placed before our readers the de-
tails of the brilliant and clear record of the
Governor of New York and as for the am
munition we have used against Blaine

done nothing, say the organs. If any
of our readers think with the organs
let the eye be cast along this brief summary:
Governor Cleveland signed the bill, passed
by Democratic Legislature, to allow the
people to express their opinion against the
competition of convict with honest labor.
Governor Cleveland compelled the last Re-
publican Legislature, much against its will,
to pass bill in accordance with the wishes
of the people so emphatically expressed at
the polls last fall against the continuance of
the prison contract system.
Governor Cleveland signed the bill to abol.
ish contract child labor in all the State Re-
formatories
Governor Cleveland approved two bills
against tenement house cigar manufacture
ings.
Governor Cleveland signed the bill making
woIkingmen first creditors for wages in case
OF the failure of the employer or contractor.
Governor Cleveland signed the bill to pro-
tect hat makers from convict manufacture.
Governor Cleveland signed the bill to pro-
tect the widows and orphans from swindling
insurance corporations.
Governor Clev Gland gave his signature to
the Emigration bill to protect emigrants
from extortion and robbery.
Governor Cleveland signed the bill to pre-
vent pawn-brokers from robbing the poor
and unfortunate.
Governor Cleveland signed the bill for the
better protection of those who place their
earnings in the saving banks.
Governor Cleveland signed the bill which
provides for the testing of steam boilers
that laboring men might be better protected
from accidents resulting from the careless
indifference OF wealthy corporations.
Governor Cleveland asked the last Repub-
lican Legislature to appropriate sufficient
funds to allow laboring men to continue
work on the Capitol. This the Republican
Legislature refused to do, preferring to
squander the State funds on Commissions
and political Investigating Committees
rather than for the benefit of workingmen.

than Governor Cleveland?

ANOTHER DAMAGING EXPOSURE

Gustave Koble, a well-known citizen of
New York City, delivered an address at Fair
field, N. j., Saturday evening. during which
he exhibited and read letter written by
Warren Fisher, showing that an attempt
had been made by James G. Blaine to bride
him for the Mulligsn letters, for which
be offered $4,000, and then tried to get both
Fisher and Mull1gan to go to Europe.
Here is the letter as it appears in the New
York papers of Sunday last, and the fac
SiHle is published in the World of the same
date:
"In April or May OF 1880 Blaine
sent word to have me meet him at Fifth
Avenue Hotel. He then authorized me to
get the letters from Mulligan, pay S10.0 900 if
l could not get them for less, and then
wanted Mr.. NJ. and myself to 60 to Europe,
remain until after election, all at his ex-
pense. Mr.. Mulligan declined the offer. He
said Blaine had stolen his letters in Wash
ington, and he never should have what he
held at any price. Yours, etc,

GROVER CLEVELAND IN A MIRROR.
1t becomes more apparent with each sue
ceeding day that the national Democracy
made wise selection of candidate. There
is that in Grover Cleveland's department
throughout the three months of the cam
paign which commands the admiration that
is accorded to heroism. With provocations
for fierce denunciation OF his maligners, he
has yet maintained a dignifed and silent
contempt for their malignings. He has never
once resorted to the cheap devices of the
cheap politician. Harlequin gesticulation
and show Mr.. Cleveland has allowed his OPP
ponent to monopolize. All the seIf-respect,
the dignity, the magnificent bearing, he has
quietly appropriated to himself. While his
Republican competitor was holding jockey
levees at the seaside and posing before
crossroads audiences in Maine, Mr.. Cleve-
land was taking rest in the modest
retirement of the North woods His
rival rushed into court to defend his
honor by attempting to brighten the press
from criticising it. About the came time
Mr.. Cleveland defended his honor by telling
his friends to tell the truth concerning his
record. When Blaine, forced so to do made
confession of his laches from morality and
honorable manhood, Mr.. Cleveland had
been INDICATED by popular investigation.
While Blaine is "galivanting' over the
States canvassing after the fashion OF the
book agent or sewing machine agent, Grover
Cleveland is digni6edly performing the
duties of his Office. Cleveland's demeanor
is that of the Observation-Disclosures that OF a
demagogue. Clevelsnds stiffness is that OF
the confident candidate-Blaine's that of..the
apprehensive and anxious office.seeker.
Cleveland is the staunch citizen-Blaine the
strolling actor. Blaine is continuously de-
nying spologizing and pleading-Cleveland
is asking no favors and making no appeals.

GATH" BLAINE AND PRoHIBIrIo,

Ne
Gath, editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer,
and general political dictator, has now
turned his attention to the German vote and
the prohibition question. He has issued
manifesto at which the German voter may
well be alarmed. If the German people will
persist in standing up for their personal lib
critics and the right to eat, drink and wear
what they prefer, this same Gath gives them
to understand once and for all that the Re.
publicans intend to unite with the prohibi-
tionists and make it truly warm for those
who believe they have a right to protest
against encroachments on their individual
rights. The dire consequence which
is to follow the refusal of the Germans to sit
quietly by and let prohibition be fastened
on the country by the Republican party, is
to be that that party, when united with the
prohibition party, is to kill off the liquor
interests altogether and "thus take the beer
question forever out OF politics" In view
OF the fact that wherever there is prohi-
bition it is in a Republican State and that
Blaine has been Endorsed by the Prohi-
bitionists, it is safe to say that, notwithstand-
ing the Gath manifesto the German voters
will continue to oppose Blaine Republican
ism and prohibition.
