THE Republican State Central Com
mittee have appointed Mr.. Pennewill OF
Dover, chairman of the Committee, and
by doing so have met with the disap,
probation of the Democratic organ OF
this city. 1t thinks that DR.. Pennewill
is too young and inexperienced, and
that Mr.. Smithers, the new Secretary
is tyro in politics. 1t seems a pity
that the Republicans cannot please the

pointments, but after all it is better that
they should please themselves first, and
this they seem to have done by the ap'

DYNAMITE CONSULTATIONS.

All the governments of Europe, es-
pecially that of Great Britain, are
alarmed at the doings of the dynamiters,
as they are called. There seems to be
an organization of murderous cranks,
whose object is to kill and destroy
merely from an inspiration of malicious
mischief. Every few weeks we hear of
ships, docks, club-houses, or prisons be-
ing blown up by dynamite. So far
there has not been much loss of life or
any great destruction of property, for
the dynamiters, while they have the
destructive instincts, seem to lack cour
age to carry out their nefarious
schemes. To thwart them, as well as
to make money, various dynamite man
ufacturers in Great Britain, France,
Germany, Belgium. Spain, Italy, and
Switzerland propose to organize COM
pany to have the exclusive making and
selling of dynamite. The capital of the
company is to be $7,720,0O0, divided
into $4,000 shares. Unfortunately for
the success of this combination any
chemist can make dynamite.

The situation is very serious in
France, and DR.. Koch, who has returned
from Germany to Lyons to continue
his Investigations, still predicts that the
scourge will spread, but he encourages
the people of that city with the opinion
that the disease will be milder in form
there than it is at Toulon and Mar
settles, owing to the excellent drainage.
His suggestions as to sanitation have af
forded to the people of the world the only
hint they need for the circumstances
which the appearance of the plague
creates. Personal cleaniess, a whole
some diet, and strict conformity to sani
tary laws in the removal of waste and
filth from dwellings and the streets will
reduce the danger Of cholera in any
city to minimum, and in places where
these precautions have been observed
little apprehension of the scourge need
be felt. In America especially no fear
of cholera need be entertained if only
proper careis taken to preserve individ-
nal and public health.

The oleomargarine manufacturers In
New York are making desperate eff
fort TO determine by legal measures
whether or not they have right to
manufacture their substitute for but
ter. A friendly suit has been insti
tuted by one against another, and in
this way the whole question is to be
brought before the courts for adiudi-
cation. Though great many persons
in New York believe the manufacture
illegal, no one appears willing to take
the responsibility of bringing suit
and in order to settle the question the
manufacturers are going to sue each
other. To Judge from the boldness of
their position, the oleomargarine men
seem to believe that both the law and
the evidence are on their side, and,
as they claim that good substitutes are
better and more wholesome than poor
butter, the result of their legal pro-
ceedings will be looked for with some
interest.

GRAIN CROPS.

The present condition of the coun-
try's crops gives promise of abundant
yields. Cotton, according to the July
report of the Department of Agricult-
ure, does not show at present as good
general average of condition as las
year, but unless severe drought shall
follow the somewhat too abundant
rains of May and June the plants will
be reasonably certain to improve dur
ing the heats of July and August. The
high average condition of the corn crop,
which is put at Sc by the department
has been exceeded but twice in ten
years, and as the acreage shows an in
crease Of 2 per cent. very large crop
of that important staple will be har-
vested if the weather is favorable to it's
rIpening. Winter wheat is nearly
ready to be harvested, and the depart
ment estimates the yield at 350,000,000
bushels, while spring wheat is in ex-
cellent condition, the average being
100. The products of these three great
crops, cotton, corn, and wheat, will be
far in excess Of our own requirements.
The benefits which the country will
derive from the disposal of the surplus
will depend upon our success in find
ing a good market, for We have already
learned that we have no natural rights
in the worlds markets which enterpris-
ing competitors are bound to respect.
