Baby farming, judged by ITS practical results,
appears TO he IA method by which the law against
infantcidc is eyaded by placing infants under con-
ditIons certain to bring about their early death.
The people who farm babies are as a rule con-
cerned only to make profit the business and to
do that they give their charges the cheapest kind of
mInistraton. But as infants are naturally deli
cate and the rate of infant mortality Is normally
high. ii Is usually difficult. in the absence of direct
evidence TO fasten charges of neglect or criminal
conduct upon the baby farmers. And though there
is III tins city society which has specially charged
itself with the protection of children 1t does not
appear 10 have the authority necessary to carry
outtspurposes in this respect. Ii is to be presumed
however. that whatever powers are requisite to
tbc proper exercise of its humane functions would
be conferred upon it if representation were made
Of tho facts and certainly there ought TO exist

THE uE1NING or LtRGE CROPS.


With definite improvement every day in the
really excellent crop prospects, the commercial
world rcgljns confidence slowly. With Con-
gress still in session, with no Democratic nom
inat0n for the Presidency "a yet, and with a
prevalent notion among the importers, the
foreign bankers, the British newspapers, and
the people for whom they no the thinking, that
a Democratic nomination can be made which
will result in Democratic success the people of
substance are slow to buy things. These peO-
pie are mistaken as to the political influences,
at any rate. Mr.. Blaine is not going to be
beaten. Congress has passed the possibility Of
doing mischief this year.
On the other hand, the potency of good crops
and of other important commercial influences,
is generally moderated. A large yield means
an enormous addition to the available wealth Of
the country. For illustration, let us suppose
that the needs of our population of 100000
can be moderately supplied, but no more. when
the yield OF wheat is 400, 100000 bushels, of
corn 1,2O0,O0O,OOO bushels, of cotton
6,000, 900 bales, and of other products in like
proportion. Such yield, let us say, suliccs to
feed and clothe our people, and to buy what
they need from abroad. But instead, there
comes a yield about one quarter greater the
gross product of agriculture rises, for example,
from So, 400 O0G, 900 to So, 900, 100000. Oar
needs having been previously supplied, the in
crease Of 500, 900, 900 or 5000, 900, 900 is 50
much added TO our clear profit on the years
work, and when markets can be found for prod
ucts the entire value of that increase is added
to the available wealth Of the country. In
short, we are in the position of a merchant who
can barely cover expenses with moderate bust
ness, but can make IN enormous profit if the
business becomes little larger
This years crops are going to add IA very large
sum to the clear profit of the country, unless We
allow speculation to slaughter our foreign trade
again. With $50O,0OO,O 900 more to be applied
to the development of resources, the building of
houses and mills and railroads. or TO be invested
in securities, an impetus will certainly be given
to all markets and all branches of trade.

the sEARCH F0R A VACUUM

The Republican party looked for man who
represented Republican principles, found him,
and nominated him promptly. The Democratic
party is hunting all over the country for man
who will not represent Democratic principles,
and is only apprehcnsve that, after nominating
n man supposed to be empty, il may find that he
has something in him.
The latest news from Chicago suggests that
the convention may give Mr.. T'ildcn u formal
nomination, not expecting him to accept, in
order to gain moro time for the search This is
a nice plan, and we sincerely hope it may be
carried out. The Republicans would then be
able to show what sort of man is the deliberate
first choice of the Democratic party. Every OBJ
lection that could be made to Mr.. Tildcn. rs an
unfit and most unworthy candidate. would
stand against his party, while the party would
not have the benefit of his personal strength in
some localities, or of his sagacious direction.
If the party could be entirely sure that the
Saga of Cipher Alley would positively decline,
this trick would only serve the Republicans by
giving them great deal of fixed ammunition
for the contest. II would label as n second class
man, altogether inferior to Mr.. Tilden in the
opinion of most of the delegates the unhappy
victim upon whom the nomination. might after
ward fall. That there are men who would be
willing to eat a second table, after Mr.. Tilden
had finished, is quite likely, but the people
might not prefer such men for the highest place
in their gift.
The re is still lack of entire confidence that
Governor Cleveland would prove sufficiently
empty for candidate. Perhaps the talk in
clincs a shade more toward him than it did
few days ago, but if man could be discovered
who had absolutely no opinions, and of whom
absolutely nothing could be said, he would be
apt to distance the Governor.

The Democrats who made great Outcry

ing a large River and IIarbOr bill, will find
some difficulty in defending the one which they
have pushed through at this session. 1t APP
propriates $13. 1899, 700, exclusive of million
for the benefit of the Mississippi River, Tor
which separate bill was passed. making
altogether nearly fifteen million dollars. Inc
famous bill of two years ago appropriated q
little over eighteen millions, but that was made
to last two years. In January the Secretary OF
War furnished list of rivers and harbors
really needing appropriations for their pro
lection and advancement" and the amount re-
CURED was $4,329,OOO. But no attention was
paid in the House to that reply to its request
for information. The Senate added several
large items to the House bill, but mostly for
harbors which need protection. 1t allowed for
Hell Gate the smallest sum for which the work
can be completed, and added $250,OOO for
deepening Gednoys Channel. That item has
been cut down $4,000 by the House, and
through Democratic hostility the amendment
for Board of Superintendent for tho harbor
is lost. And that is done though millions have
been appropriated for rivulets and bayous
which no stretch of metaphor can dignity as
