DEMOCRACY.

Gen. Patrick Collins made speech
In Boston recently, in which he defin-
ed Democracy as it has been taught us
In years gone by and should be taught
the children of today. He said:
st belong to the Democratic party,
as I understand it, which makes no
distinction between rich and poor,
white and black, high or lowly. Zap
plause.1 believe that the man who
sweeps the streets, the man who drives
the horses, the man who works in the
mill or hammers at the bench, if he
be an honest man, is just as good as
he who does the banking for
the country or manages the great mer-
camille house. lApplause.] Ibslieve
also that the honest man who came in
the Cephalonia last week Is as good an
American five years hence when he is
naturalized as the descendants of those
who came in the Mayiower. [Great
applause. There is no aristocracy In
the Democratic party. One man with
equal intelligence and equal judgment
and equal honesty, is as good as any
other man. There are no grades, no
social stratum in the great Democratic
party, and I stand here to protest
against the canting and the lying of
people and of newspapers who critieise
Democrats. Applause. The Boston
Advertiser and the Boston Journal
have never an ugly word to say in
criticism of the mildest character
cheated the people of the United States
out of their legally elected President,
or against any man who took office or
received the stolen office, from Hayes
down to Evarts,"

The Cash Counted.

WAsHINGToN. D. c. May s.-Treas-
ureg Jordan says the Treasury count
is practically over and everything was
found most satisfactory. The three
silver dollars which escaped from q
broken package in the silver vault
have been found, so the only discrep.
ancy is two cents missing from a five
dollar package of pennies in the cash
room. rlsl
Yesterday heavy square box wrap
ped in red tape and securely bound,
was found in an out of the way nook
OF the vault. The key had been mis-
laid. A locksmith opened the box,
and it was found to contain q bottle of
diamonds, bottle of pearls, bottle
of altar of roses, and lump of gold.
One of the older employees Identified
the articles as presents to President
Monroe about the year 1928, from the
japanese Government, and which had
been stored in the Treasury pending
the passage of ali act of Congress au-
thorising their acceptance Compress
failed to legislate on the subject, and
the articles were deposited in the
Treasury, where they have remained
ever since.

The wheat Crop a Failure,

CHICAGO, May s.-A telegram from
Milwaukee says: 8. W. Tallmadge,
the crop statisLician, has prepared the
following information concerning the
present condition of the wheat crop.
which he has received during the past
twepty-four hours from the official
authorities of the States named, viz
Kentucky, Missouri, Pennsylvania,
Michigan, Maryland, California, Wis
consin, Iowa, West Virginia, Dakota,
Alabama, Georgia, New York, Indi.
ana, Illinois, Kansas, Virginia, Min
nesota, Nebraska and Tennessee. The
reports, as whole, show the Winter
crop of Wheat to be in very unprom-
ising condition, and, Notwithstanding
the recent rains and warm weather
have given the plant better appear.
ance, no improvement can be reported
in the promise OF the crop. On the
contrary, the good weather has devel-
oped the actual damage done ny Win
tsr-killing and other causes. Thou,
sands of acres in large Winter wheat
producing States have been plowed up
and sOwn to oats and other grains
The decrease seems to be general in
all the Winter wheat States in area
and damage done by Winter-kill-
ing, with but one exception, that of
Michigan. That State reports but a
slight decrease in the acreage sown,
and no Winter-killing whatever or
damage of other kind. With this one
exception, the loss to the Winter wheat
States is the greatest ever, known, and
will prove a serious blow to many of
the States that depend largely upon
their wheat product. The Spring
wheat States-Wisconsin, Iowa, Min
nesota, Nebraska and Dakota-have
not yet completed their Spring seeding
but are far enough advanced TO show
that the area will be somewhat de-
creased from last year. The season 10
unusually backward, and unless we
have.a very favorable Summer, the
yield of Spring wheat will fall much
below that of last year.

The Republican politicians have
been making themselves merry of late
over the alleged dissatisfaction among
Democrats with the policy of the ad-
ministration. 1t is cruel to deprive
them of the little comfort derived from
this source. But the N. Y. World
says:
"The assurance comes to us from
Washington that the stories about
Democratic dissatisfaction with the
methods of the Administration are
grossly exaggerated. The Democratic
statesmen who linger at the Capital
are well pleased with the Presidents
consistent policy, and are convinced
that the Administrator is making
friends every day. This is good news"
