THE YEARS CROPS.
Interesting Figures From the Depart.
ment of Agriculture.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE report
of the department Of agriculture for
October gives local estimates of the
yield per acre of small grains with the
condition of corn, potatoes and other
late crops. The results corroborate
the previous returns of wheat, show
ing a slight increase from the records
of threshing without making any very
material addition to the crop aggre-
gate. The average yield upon an area
of fully thirty-seven million acres
appears to be close to l21 bushels per
acre, making a crop of an average of a
series of years. The area actually har-
vested is now the principal object of
exact determination. The area will
vary little from an increase of 1O,OOO,-
600 over the crop of last year. The
state averages of the principal states
are: New York II bushels; Pennsyl-
vania 10; Kentucky lis; Ohio 15-7;
Michigan 1853; Indiana 15-1; Illinois
1871; Wisconsin 1873; Minnesota 1876;
Iowa 1875; Missouri 1876; Kansas 11-5:
Nebraska 90; Dakota 10-5; California
lis Oregon 1875. The average yield
per acre of oats is 26-5 bushels, making
a crop of over 6OO,OOO,OOO bushels. The
Ohio Valley averages over 30 bushels
per acre and Iowa over "a bushels,
with lower Yields in Missouri. Kansas
and the southern states. The eastern
states have high yields. The barley
crop averages 224 bushels per acre and
the product will come up to 6OO,OOO,OOO
bushels. The average yield of the rye
crop is 11-8 bushels per acre and the
product over 28OOOO00 bushels. The
higher temperature of September and
the absence of frosts have improved
the corn crop prospects and made an
expectation of % bushels per acre and
rendered certain crop of at least 1866
100000 bushels. The general average
is nearly 80 against 1876 last year when
the yield was 26-5 bushels. The gen.
eral average of the October condition
of potatoes is 81 against 80 last year
The tobacco average condition is near
ly 81. The promise of buck-wheat is
for crop slightly under the average
The condition in New York and
Pennsylvania is 81 which is nearly q
| general average.

VIII Support Clifford.


Aberdeen News: There should be
no opposition to Judge Clifford among
the republicans in this portion of Da-
kota now that the democracy has
taken such a milk and water position.
There is nothing to be gained by vot-
ing for the democratic nominee, or
even by scratching the name of Mr..
Clifford and voting blank. 1t is true
that the voters of this section may not
stand upon the same platform as Mr..
Clifford, but as long as there is no can
didate in the field who represents their
ideas, they can do no better than give
the republican nominee their most
hearty support.

The nominations to the legislature
thus far indicate an entire new deal at
Bismarck the coming winter, and the
election of Capt. Hughes and Geo. A.
Mathews, of the capital commission,
will mean that the question in which
these gentlemen are most interested is
to be a live issue. The REPUBLICAN,
has no desire to see another season of
capital removal agitation. If Dakota
is divided it is of no consequence to
this section where the capital Of north
Dakota is located; if congress decides
to keep the territory intact, the capital
fight can then be made on its merits,
and location secured with some
reference to centrality and accessibility.
What could properly be done, however,
at the coming session of the legislature
is to repeal the commission act, relocate
the capital at Bismarck by direct act
temporarily, and provide for wiplng
out the present indebtedness by
reappraising the unsold lots in the
capitol addition. This much is due the
people of Bismarck who put their
money into the fight three years ago in
as good faith as did Mitchell, Huron,
and Pierre. II, however, there is any
effort to violate the conditions of the
compact under which the location was
made, and to saddle a debt upon the
territory which has been in no manner
authorized, the legislature will bejnsti-
fed in summarily setting the capital
question back to its former status.

If ever there was an urgent occasion
for the republican party to organize
for clean-cut, energetic work it is this
fall. 1t is true of the country at large,
of Dakota as territory. and more
particularly of Dawson county. The
coming election has a wider bearing
and deeper significance than the mere
placing of one set of men in Office over
another. Dakota is Overwhelmingly
republican and she owes it to her
friends in congress and throughout the
east, who are making her cause di-
rect issue, to prove false the insinua-
tion that her party integrity has been
affected by a change in the administra-
tion. Any lack of organization, or any
indifference will be taken advantage
of by the democrats, on whom the re-
viving and strengthening influence of
q handful of federal offices has had a
marvelously stimulating effect.
Dawson county is largely republican,
and for the first time since her organ
ization are the party lines to be drawn
on local offices; for whatever name
the opposition ticket may come out
under, it will be democratic in its in
ception and in its makeup. No other
condition of things is possible. The
administration has done its share
toward putting the party on its feet
by distributing its favors among men
of whose democracy there is no ques-
tlon, and for them to countenance or
even allow anything but straight
party move to be made, would be to
ignore their implied instructions from
headquarters.
Further, the future standing of this
county in the party councils of the ter
ritory or state depends on the work
accomplished at this time. Our appor-
tionment will be fixed by the size of the
straight party vote, and our reputation
as county that can be relied on fol
solid systematic work in emergencies
rests on the thoroughAess with which
the ticket is supported. There should
be no division of effort. The vote
which Hon. o. S. Clifford receives
should be given to every candidate on
the legislative and county ticket, nc
one of whom but is competent and
worthy to fill the position he has beer
named for. This is the decisive year
Let the results show that the republi
cans of Dawson county have renewed
their allegiance to the party which will
increase its strength in congress thi'
fall in every state of the Union, ant
which in 1883 will return to power il
the national administration.
