This year can truly be called wet season
in California. During the winter months very
heavy rains fell and now, when the farmers are
wanting 10 do their haying, it still continues 10
'pour" at times. This is indeed very dis.
couraging, and it's also almost an unheard Of
event for rain 10 fall in this Golden State in
the month Of June. 1t is just the opposite in
the Atlantic States of the Union, for there rain
is looked for at any time during the summer
months. The farmer has to be careful in cut
ting his hay that he does no, cut down too
much at time. Although the rains will have
damaged the hay considerably it will neverthe.
less be pretty heavy crop. The grain crop
also promises well.
The price oil cattle has been coming up the
last few years, is very high this year. This
state is just suited for cattle raising, the large
mountain ranges. the absence OF snow in win.
ter, being well suited for such business.
This state might also be called land Of
"buccaros, 'forthechiel enjoyment ofthe people
seems to be to mount fiery horses and with
spurs and 'lass," chase,he cattle over the hills.
The "big talk" OF the day now is the presi.
dental election this fall. James G. Blaine,
OF Maine has been chosen by the Republicans.
At this writing the Democrats have not vet
convened. This will doubtless be the most
important election since the civil war. All the
presidents since the time Of Lincoln have been

.ional election when the great political parties
will be designated democrats" and "Repul,.
lcans. About the only difference now he.
tween them is the tariff question. Other par.
ties, as history shows there have been before,
will have to be organized and new platforms
adopted.

In the detailed account We find the purchase
Of 500 bags of rice, bu, no account that it was
all consumed. 500 bags represent 100000
lbs, which would give to each leper one ounce
and half daily.
But there is also considerable use Of rice al
kakaako. where 1904 pounds were issued to
the patients OF 7 ounces to each daily. And
this not substituted for pa.ai.
One other item appears in both accounts.
AT Molokai there is reported the purchase Of
os bags Of sugar at cost OF S73I, less than
one dollars worth for each patient in two
years. Reckoning the o5 bags to contain 10,
900 pounds, probably TOO high,) this quantity
would supply the epers with quarter OF an
ounce per day.
AT kakaako the consumption Of sugar was
I6,o22 pounds costing $I,I7S, or about SIS
for each patient, or rather more than ~ ousces
daily.

We there find an item of 1857 bundles Of

that every bundle were If good quality and

make it equal To tina, Of kaknako.
! Bu, Mr.. Meyer states that the lepers have
the choice Of taking bread and rice and that
they are supplied with these articles when
there is no pal al. Hence We find in the de.
tailed expenditure that ago cases OF bread
and Is5 bags Of flour were purchased at an
expense Of $Iaa6. Allowing that the cost OF
bread is not greater at Molokai than it is in
Honolulu, which is scarcely probable, reckon.

amount supplied at Molokai was 2a,S4o lbs.
This would give to each leper less than three
quarters Of an ounce OF bread daily OF say two
mouhfuls. A, Kakaako the daily supply oI
paia is = lbs OF double that Of Molokai
and in addition there was also a supply oil
bread, which cost $1,000. The total weight
OF bread issued was 5000 lbs Of medium,
and 1897 loaves Of soft bread. Leaving out
the latter we find the daily supply 10 each
paiien, TO be six ounces. The cost Of bread
to each leper at Molokai is IS cents per man.

WHOLESALE TRADE.
What Has Been Done By the Business
Men of st. Paul the Past
Week
OFFICE OF THE ST. PAUL CHAMBER OF
GI,r,rrprE Octnhnr % 1881

OFFICE OF THE ST. PAUL CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE, October 25, 1884.
During the past week the wholesale trade
has been quite satisfactory in nearly all lines
of business. Money is in active demand
and easier Banks are discounting for their
customers at to 10 per cent.
The real estate market has been notably
active in inter urban districts and West st.
Paul There has been a demand for Day
toms bluff property, and constant inquiries
for tracts between st. Paul and Minneapolis.
The week, all in all, has been the best noted
for several months.
The wholesale grocers report business
quite active in all lines, and collections
good.
The dry goods business has been good, or
ders coming in freely since the cold weather
set in a few days ago.
Drug market active, although collections
have not been entirely satisfactory. Prices are
favorable to buyers. Ginseng, on account
of the war between France and China is very
full, and really no market price. Seneca
also abundant and low. BeeswaX il de-
mand. Heavy sales of window glass re-
ported.
The lumber business is very active, with
every indication Of good business ahead
An excellent business has been done in
boots and shoes for the time Of year
Hardware is in active demand and in GER
tain lines of the business very heavy and
increasing.
The wholesale liquor merchants report
business improving and fairly satisfactory.
All our commission merchants doing
n good business. Apples are coming in
freely and in good demand. Those engaged
in the fruit business report very large
trade.
Retail merchants report business quite sat
isfactory in almost all lines of trade.
The fuel dealers harvest is now being
gathered, and trade in that line is very
heavy.
Generally speaking, although there is com
plant of scanty money returns from portions
OF the country tributary here, notably from
Dakota aud across the mountains, yet all ou
business interests are in good shape, aud tn,
future looks brighter than for many months

VERDICT OF MANSLAUGHTER.
A Narrow Escape from the Halter for
Lloyd Porter-Sentences in the
District Court Yes
fnpdaV

The Lloyd Porter murder case was given
to the jury at p. IN. Friday afternoon, and
the jury remained in considering their YER
dict until 1915 Saturday morning, when an
agreement was reached fixing the grade of
Porter's crime as murder in the second de-
gree, for which the penalty is fixed by law,
Imprisonment in the penitentiary for life.
In the course of their long elaboration the
jury took fourteen ballots, the instruction of
the court being that the verdict must fix the
grade of crime as murder in the first degree,
or murder in the second degree, or find for
acquittal, the ground for the latter being in
sanity The ballots were as follows:
