The latest news from the ice fields OF
the Hudson river is to the effect that there
are great fears entertained that the har-
vest is practically past and the winter
almost ended, and still very small crop
Of ice has been saved. The shortest crop
ever gathered is said to have been that of
1870, when the wholesale price went to
SIC per ton, and the next in 1880 when it
was $40 per ton. 1t is likely that the de-
mand for natural ice will be considerably
reduced this year, as new ice factories
are being built in many cities, and most
of the breweries are putting in refrigerat-
ing machinery.

emily. At various trade centers west
and southwest, where the activity
reported has not been proportionate
t0'that recorded at eastern points of
distribution, there has been a large
inquiry and a heavier weeks BUSH
ness, but at various cities in the east
the movement of goods to the interi-
or is smaller. Illustrating this it
may be specified that at Boston the
sales of dry goods have fallen off
somewhat from the late heavy vol
ume, and that the existing demand
there is less than had been expected.
The situation is, therefore, consider
ed one for critical examination, and
the succeeding few weeks will be
closely observed to determine
whether the result, as has been
alleged, is to be dull trade during
the winter, succeeding the autumn
squirt only.
The eastern dry goods trade in gen.
eral is therefore characterized as
quiet. Wool continues in fair de-
mand from manufacturers in excess
Of immediate demands as we'll as
from spectators. This makes prices
firm and holders stiff in their views.
The market is called strong and ac-
tive. the new as we'll as favorable
features are that at Chicago there is
an improved distribution of general
merchandise, and that the request for
funds from the interior is heavier.
Business is better at San Francisco,
and at Cincinnati reports from vari-
Gus leading lines of trade show that
business is % percent better than it
was in the like period of 1884. The
margin of profit, however, is not inn
proved. Ocean freights generally
are heavy and low, and the move
ment of eXportable product is no bet

The Democratic Ticket.

On Tuesday last the Democratic
County Convention for Garrett COun-

this town, and nominated a ticket for
the support of the Democrats of Gar.

and there is blood on the moon, so to
speak. We have been present at all,
or nearly all, the Democratic cOnYen.
lions which have met in this county
during period of ten years, and if
the statements made by Democrats
themselves are to be taken as true,
never has there been so much bitter
ness and dissatisfaction with the work
of convention. Many of the faith
full do not hesitate to say the ticket is
a weak one. Others cry out fraud,
put up job, trickery, &C., &c. We
take it for granted that there are some
men who wanted place who were left
out in the cold. To say that some of
them are hurt, mortified, all broken
up, so to speak, would be drawing it
very mild, The evidences of dissat-
isfaction which we have seen and
heard came from Democratic sources,
and if they are true, there is every
reason why Republicans should be
pleased with the ticket. But whether
they are true or false. the Republic
cans should make preparations at
once to beat that ticket, and in MAX
ing that preparation it is not wise to
underrate the strength of our adver-
sary. Democrats may be dissatisfied
for the moment, they may cuss a
little between there teeth, but they
can beat the world eating crow, and
you may expect those who make the
most fuss now to walk up to the bal
lot box in November and put theie
tickets in straight. A word to the
wise is sufficient.
