INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
A Fair Trade in Progress and a Healthy Tone
to the Market Generally.

"A FAR Trade In Progress ana Heaitny zone
to the Market Generally.
Indianapolis, March IL.
The reports Of business from nearly all parts
of the country show a continued moderate inn
provement in business quite sufficient to main
tain the hopeful feeling heretofore noted as to
the development of the spring trade. The labor
troubles still excite considerable anxiety, and
there is uneasy feeling observable in financial
circles. The commercial editor of the Boston
Herald says: 1.-THE readjustment of the rela-
tons of labor to capital is one of the great prob
lens of the age. The age will no doubt find
solution and the result will be well, but during
the agitation it were inevitable that capital
should be timid and hesitating, as it is to-day,
and is likely to be in greater degree in
the immediate future. But for this
matter and the currency disturbance, the sur
plus money would no doubt soon find full en-
ployment 1t is seeking employment slowly in
the face of all obstcles but in different chan
neIs, it may be, from what 1t would take were it
to flow out naturally. A good deal of money
which would ordinarily go into business seeks
refuge in securities, and the prices of prime GER
tifcates are carried beyond the point of remu-
nerative income" The -four market continues
rather tame; Western milers are, if running
their mills at all, not pushing the production of
-four The Boston Journal of the 10th says:
1.-THE Improvement in -four noticed last week is
maintained so far as prices concerned but
the demand has fallen off, and buyers continue
to operate only for immediate wants. It is up
hill work to give vitality to the market as all
improvements have had set back in a very
short time afterward and the market is
about as lfeless to-day as at any time.
Millers, however, are confident, = and re-
ceivers are sellers only when extreme
prices are realized. The New York market has
also resumed its usual dullness, but at present
low prices consumption goes on and the sales,
although in small lots add up, from week to
week, fair average. Even the abundance of
money and the low rates of interest are no in
ducement to carry any considerable stock and
the actual amount of -four in the hands of re-
ceivers iobbers and retailers must be compar-
atively small. It appears to us that prices are
as low as can be expected or as likely to rule in
the future, but when decided change will take
place is about as doubtful as ever. The latest
advices from Great Britain report frsner mark
cts, but prices are low, some two shilings nine
pence per quarter under the low prices of last
year. Locally there were no fluctuations of i'm
portance to-day in values. The egg market is
frmer. The poultry market steady. Tameness
The seed market is more active atSteady prices.
GRAIN
The local market, so far as prices were con-
cerned, ruled about the same as on Thursday
The wheat market is tame. Corn steady and a
fair selling. Oats steady with good demand Be-
low are quoted prices at which property would

Letter From Capt. Ransrord SIN it'll.

ED. DEMOCRAT: The course advocated
by the DEMOCRAT concerning the proper
action OF the party at the coming election
for Delegate meets the hearty approval
OF the Democracy OF this place, and (as |
believe OF the Democracy through out
the Territory.
The Liberal party does not seem in
clined to make any contest this fall, and
it certainly will not do to permit the
Mormon candidate for Delegate to Con-
gress to make his canvass under his own
direction as a member OF the Democratic
Congressional Committee without some
emphatic protest on the part Of the Utah
Democrats. If all other parties give this
election the go-by, certainly the Demo-
cratic party should not. suggest that
through the Territorial Democratic Com
mittee, Hon. r. n. Baskin be placed in
nomination as candidate for Delegate to
Congress for Utah Territory.

ton, take them in charge and bring them
to their destination, and this system can
and probably will be continued under the
control and with the aid of the Church,
Notwithstanding the dissolution oil the
Perpetual Emigration Fund Co.
am impressed with the belief that
but little, il any, immigration would come
ii it depended upon individual enterprise
and responsibility.
l would respectfully recommend that
the attention of Congress be called to this
subject, for the enactment of such laws
as will put stop to this immigration,
until this people become submissive and
recognize their responsibility under the
law.
The legislation relating to this Terri
tory reported to Congrest at its last SEES
sion, and pending before that body, gives
assurance that there is recognition OF
the situation, and OF the need of further
law for the benefit of this Territory.
The need is urgent, and should be met
without further delay. Congress when
it reassembles should not adjourn with
out enacting the necessary laws that will
bring this people to realization OF the
power OF the Government, if it does not
secure their respect for its authority
The enactment at the last session Of
the bill pending before the House, to
which reference has already been made,
would have found the terms OF large
majority OF the elective officers OF the
Territory about expiring. Since the adj
journment of Congress on the I'd day Of
August last, general election was held,
and new officers elected for full terms of
two years. Ii the bill is to become q law
as it should at the coming session of
| Congress-it ought to provide for vacat-
ing the offices, that the law may become
operative, and that they may be filled in
accordance with its provisions.
The pressing need OF II session oil the
Legislative Assembly at an early day,
should, if not otherwise done, be pro-
vided for in the law.
THE CONCLUSION.
On the 9th OF May last / assumed the
duties OF Office in this Territory. | was
received with honor, and have been
treated ever since with consideration and
kindness by all the people OF every party,
regardless OF differences. | can and do
have no other than the kindest feelings
for this whole people. | feel a great re-
greet that great majority OF this people
will not, or can not see their way to re-
spect and obey the laws. The sufferngs
and sorrows they bring upon themselves
as individuals and as a people, are a
source of profound sorrow.
One who will lead them quickest to
