SINCE Mr.. Dunnell authorized the an.

the Republicans in the First district ara
thoroughly wrought up. To insure sue

will need to nominate man other than

DECORATION DAY was universally oh.
served throughout the North this year,
and very much more interest was mani
tested than has been observable for sew
eral years past In paying tribute to the
heroic dead. In Washington the day
was cloudy and frequent showers of rain
fell. In New York the canopy was hung
with threatening clouds, but the day
passed without rain. The president
was there and reviewed the procession
as it passed. Col. Villas and Gen. Logan
made addresses, the latter delivering
very touching tribute to the memory Of
Gen, Grant.

THE WHEAT CROP.
Reports From the Six Principal
Wheat.GrOWIng Statee.

TOLEDO, o, June 1S.-C. A. King q
Co., during the past three days, have
received 1900 reports from grain deal.
ers aud millers covering almost every
important wheat county in the six
prir cipal winter wheat States. Pros
poets are very favorable, except in
Kansas and Michigan. Missouri has
excellent prospects; Illinois nearly as
good, while Indiana and Ohio are al
most rs favorable. Michigan has a
fair prcspecj, but the outlook in Kan
sas is poor. Yield and quality promise
to be good. MICHIGAN reports the
present prospects sbaut the same as
July LIST, when the Agricultural Bureau
report was gathered. The other States
all show material improvement dur
ing the past two weeks, being greatest
in Missouri and Illinois. Harvest is
in full blast in Kansas and Missouri.
Next week it will be general in most
of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, but not
in the northern sections until the last
of June, and in Michigan the first part
OF July. Harvest will average near
ly two weeks earlier than last
year. Nearly two thirds of the reports
say farmers will be disposed to sell
freely Immediately after thIeshing.
Even Michigan reports that over haf
gwill sell. Many will be compelled to,
owing to the crop failure Of last year,
while Others say that farmers are dis
posed to accept the situation, as those
who have sold early the past two SEA
sons have done best.

Mr.. MORRISON'S DEFEAT.
WHAT THE NEW YORK PAPERS
SAY OF
The Refusal Of the HsEse Of Repre-.
sentatiVes to Consider His
Tariff Biz.

NEW York, June 1S.-In regard to
the defeat of Mr.. Morrison's tariff mo-
ton in the House yes erday, the Times
Gays: 1t is worth repeating what we
have of.en noted before, that Messrs.
Carlisle, Morrison, Hewitt, Man
ming and the ether revenue re-
formers can carry their cause to vic
tory when they are ready to fight fer
il. So long a. they so on az they
have gone for the past six years pa.
tiently submitting to treathery and
insult, they wilnOt do so. That the
leaders who command the support of
fve-sixths OF the party repre- sanitation
in the House cannot shape the policy
of their party ii they choose to do so
is palpable bsuriity. So long as
they move to the assault ritN an off,
OF surrender on their lips, lAsy viii be
compelled to surrender. WI en- they
get ready to fight in earnest they will
win. So far their opponents nave Re.
sisted them with the threat that il they
pressed their policy these opponents
would desert the party. When they
get ready to declare, and to live up to
llC uGCldtdliOll3 IudJ II lnGlI pOllCg is
not carried out their opponents must
leave the party, the process will be re-
versed The fate OF tariff reform de-
ponds entirely on the courage or cow
ardiCe of lis defenders.
The Tribune says: Though Mr..
Morrison does not like to admit it, the
fight is over for the present No one
doubts that majority will al any
future test be found opposed to the
consideration Of this i'll timed meas
ure. The continued agitation is not
desired by anybody except by free
trade theorists, and they desire IT only
for the purpose of embarrassing po-
litical Antagonists. For even these
theorists have come to know that no
change of tariff at this session is pos
sible, and they should by this time
realize that continued agitation at a
time when there is no possibility of
success, only prejudices the people
more strongly against them.
The Sun Gays: By a majority OF
seventeen the House Of RepIes anita
tives yesterday refused to take up Mr.
Morrison's tariff bill and make it a
subject of discussion. This is a wise
conclusion. 1t would be impossible
a. this period of the session to-give to
such bill the prolonged and minute
debate and examination which would
be necessary before bringing the
House to decision upon is merits
Better put it off.

4 LITTLE ROMANCE
That is Being Kept Dark aI the Ma,

WASHINGTON, June 16.-A little ro-
nance that iG being kept quiet en- &C.
count of the promir ence of some of
the people involved, has c Gated quite
s-sensstion in&he limited circle that
new of it. A young lady who is quite
handsome and exceedingly fastidious
came here come months ago as the
guest OF a Wisconsin Copgressm an 8
wife. The young lady had not been
accustomed to seeing colored people
at her home in Wisconsin, and was
particularly preiudiced agsinst then.
She could hardly hold her peace when
ANY Of them were in sight. She
Nould ride with the fami.
st first because they had a
.ored driver, but confined herself in
.er outgoings TO street cars. Finally,
however, she was persuaded 10 take
a ride with the Cor gTessman's wife
Suddenly a change came over her
feelings. Thomas, the driver, was
very polite, and when she returned
she remarked to her hostess that she
really felt very sorry for Thomas.
-"He is so very polite. He seems 20
have been born fer something letter
than being a colored e-achman."
EICm that time there was 10 objec-
ton made by the young lady to the
driver In fact, she rather seemed to
prefer him to anyone else. One day
when a white man came in his place
the seemed very much detected and
inquired anxiousy after Thomas's
eslth She vas Wis bly, affected
ben she learned that he hsd gone
a colored picnic expedition.

suggesttd TO tie Congressman's wife
tina. she would take tie children and
90 riding. Things were progressing in
this ashton when the young lady got
an urgent call TO come home. She
went, but before going she purchased
a package of presens for Thomas, and
among them was an e'egant silk hand.
kerchisL Tue package she sent by 8
messenger to the stable where Thomas
works. 1t is not known whether the
two are in correspondence or not, but
it is thought the young lady was not
taken nome any too SOON.
