THE crop outlook is most enoourag-
Ing. Heavy rains during the past week
have given the growing grain an inn
petus that hardly any amount Of drouth
oan check, and old settlers compare the
outlook to that Of two years ago, when
wheat In this vicinity averaged thirty
seven and a half bushels to the acre.
But, calculating thevalue Of land at SO
per acre, it can readily be seen that the
Dakota farmer would make d snug
profit with q yield Of even fifteen bush
els to the acre and q market averaging
seyenty-fye cents per bushel. How
,auch greater win be the profit should
present indications be fulfilled?

Theboom hasended, and the great mass
Of delegates which they have claimed
has melted rapidly away under what
Mr.. Tilden would call "the keen sun

and he has decided upon Harrison of
Indiana as the most available dark
horse, and he will endeayor to cast his
full strength for him, But he cannot
do it. In the first place, Harrison has
but twelve Of the thirty delegates from
his own state, and that number is not
enough to- command attention in the
convention. In the second place, as
soon as the Blaine column breaks, the
delegates will scatter. Senator Miller
Of California says that Blaine will re-
ceive the votes Of that delegation as
long as he is candidate, but he cam
not transfer them. The plan Of nomi-

DURING the past two weeks Wall
street has underwent conclusions un-
equalled since the memorable Black
Friday of 1878 shook the finances of
the country to the core. The numer-
GUS heavy failures are indeed APPALLING,
and the all-important query is, Will the
panic confne itself to financial circles
alone or extend to commerce? To wild
speculation the disasters may be at
tributed /; in fact, a panic in Wall street
every few years is as necessary to check
the mad career Of speculators as some
nauseous medicine to check the rayages
of dread disease in the human system.
Stocks have deprecated to an alarming
degree, one notable case being that of
the Merchants Telegraph Co., which in
twenty-four hours fell from 129 to 81,
Others are also affected to greater or
less degree, and men who are wealthy TO-
day in the possession Of certain stocks
and securities, may be peniless to-
morrow Through the unprecedented
fiuctuation. IIIyiew Of If this this fact, fact may

A False Presidential Prophet.

You editorially comment on q statement
that was given prominence in the first
column of yesterdays New York Times. giving
the views of some callow individual in
regard to the position of New York state as
to the republican nominee for the presi-
dency. Mr.. Arthur is only credited with the
support of eight counties out of tho sixty
that comprise the empire state. /, as New
Yorker, would like to inquire when each
county had an even representation in the
convention which nominates delegates to
Chicago Among the eight credited to Dir.
Arthur are New York and Kings (Brooklynl.
Now these two have nearly a third of the
states entire representation, yet are credited
with no more strength than two of the
smallest, one of which indeed is so sparsely
populated that for legislative, judicial, and
state purposes it is Joined to another, the two
(Fulton and Hamilton) really forming one.
This great prophet should join the ranks of
other cranks who attempt to draw horo-
scope of matters that they never knew of nor
never will. Their ignorance is fathoms deep
in its density. G. FLEMING.

THE COLD WAVE.
A Fall OF Forty-Four Degrees i'm Less
Than Twelve Hours.


The balmy spring weather in this city yes
terday morning was quickly succeeded during
the afternoon by high winds and rapidly
lowering temperature. A chilling north wind
set in by night and sent humanity shivering
indoors, while it howled mournfully through
the caves and around corners. Several sign
boards were blown down, and any number Of
hats we're blown off the heads Of pedestrians
and lost in the darkness.
The highest wind velocity in this city last
night as recorded at tho signal office, was
thirty miles an hour. The temperature at
midnight was 10 above zero and still going
down. The signal officer thought it would
fall to 70 above before daybreak. Reports
received at the signal Office showed that
the wind was unusually high on the
seacoast during the night. The
veocities ranged from 80 to 81 miles an hour.
The temperature in the lower lake region
was reported as down to zero at midnight.
An old citizen prophesied that March would
come in like a lion and, as the old saying re-
lates, go out as u lamb, Yesterday the maxi
mum temperature was 5lo above zero pcs
