wool market is strong, and manufacturers are
buying freely.
Grocers report trade as good. the dullness of
the early part OF the week having already disap-
peared. In prices there but few changes,
In fact, none OF Importance, all staple groceries
having taken on steady tore. The spice mar
ket Is quiet yet prices are firm. The rice mar
ket is strong, and good demand is shown for
domestic; nobody wants foreign rice, as
the domestic article is cheaper and
better. There is better movement in
molasses; quotations in Eastern markets are
nominal The tea market continues In the
strong position previously noted. The demand
continues very full, and Amoys are quoted
higher. Low grade Oolongs are all In demand,
as short crop is reported. A late cable from
China reports that the shipments of Formosas
foot up 100000 pounds less than the same time
last year. The market for Rio coffee shows but
little change as to price, but the very firm posi-
ton previously noted is continued. The re-
celpts at Rio continue to increase, the daily
average being now about 900 bags. The
stocks are also rapidly increasing, the last cable
giving 1877 600 bags. gain of So 600 bags for the
week. But the natural weakening tendency of
this feature Of the market is counterbaanced

ures OF the market are. however, not so favora-

amount afoat for the United States and the
visible supply are still all considerably below
the figures at this time last year. Maracaibo
coffee continues In good demand, and all mild
goods, especially Central American grades, are

There was a better tone in the local markets
to-day, but there is still large room for improve

Oats were little off and prices easier. Little il

Volume of Business Satisfactory.
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct g.
While there is no change to note in the gem
eral situation, the volume of trade is quite sat-
isfactory, aud fully reaches expectations. The
reports collected by the various commercial pa
pets indicate that the movement of staple goods
is increasing in the West and Southwest. The
fact that the earnings of forty -four railroads
from JAM to date are 1874, 08s, 1875 against 1923
427. 600 last year points to an Improvement in
business and industry. The improvement In
business is doubtless duo somewhat to the fact
that both wheat and corn are being more rapidly
marketed than last year. This, however, has
had tendency to cause lower prices for these
and other agricultural staples since in the pres
ence of large stocks in sight it would be difficult
to maintain prices without very active demand

a more favorable condition. The prices Of dry

1 4 correspondent in the TINES to-
| day introduces the political question,
and very truthfully says Douglas
county is clearly entitled to name the
next Assemblyman for this district.
/ We have IN our mind q good man for
the place and will name him, and
should be pleased to hear from others
regarding our selection. lie is a man
every way fitted for the position; well
posted regarding the laws of the state,
and the wants not only Of Douglas
county, but of the entire district and
will do equal justice to all parts Of it
if chosen 10 the honorable position.
We will not now advance any special
reasons why we ought to have man
from this county at this time, partly
because, as our correspondent says it
is already generally conceded that we
are entitled to it. Our candidate Is
Mr.. c. l.. Catlin, of the law firm Of
Catlin Il Butler, of this city, gentle
man already very well known to many
of the leading men of the district, all
of whom, We think, will endorse the
statement that he is the best man yet
mentioned for the place. We moYe
his nomination by acclamation, gen.

Philadelphia Times: Herr Most
might spend an hour or two in read
ing the writing on the Chicago wall.
Waterbury American: The unani
nous verdict of the press Is but an
echo of that of the Chicago anarchist
Jury.
Washington Star: Imagine Chief
Justice Waite and his associates re-
yersing the decision of the Chicago
iuryl Anarchy Will not be tolerated in
this coutry.
Atlanta Constitution: 4 socialist
is simply milk-and-water anarchist.
Give him few drinks Of whisky or
grievance, and he is as bad as Parsons
or Spies or Felden.
Philadelphia Press: The fact is
friends and brethren, the work of the
Chicago authorities in digging down to
the rock bottom basis Of anarchism,
shows the value of haYing detectives
who detect.
Indianapolis Journal: If there has
been one reputable paper in all the
country that has failed to indorse the
finding Of the anarchist jury at Chi
cage it has escaped observation. The
same may be said Of the opinion of in
yiduals.
Philadelphia Public Ledger: The
Chicago jury that convicted the an
archists might have done still better
if they could have included Captain
Black, their attorney, in the verdict
Of guilty. He's as vile talker as his
assassin clients.

One Of our exchanges gives Mr..
J. 2. Eldred, of1HIwaukee the follow
ing send-off on The State Treasury
race course:
"For the office of State Treasurer
John E. Eldred, Of Milwaukee, seems
to be the most fitting candidate, and
in every way worthy of the Republican
nomination. 1t is conceded that if he
IS nominated. his election is assured.
AIr. Eldred is perhaps the best known
and most popular business man in
Milwaukee county, and he has large
general acquaintance throughout the
whole state. Our Older citizens will
remember his father as one Of Wiseon-
sins pioneers. The son is 81 native Of
this state, and has several times been
honorel with The political preferences
Of his constituents. In each position
he has occupied be has entirely
filed the bill, and It is only fair that
he should be preferred above all others
for the Office Of State Treasurer. Re
publics are not ungratefuI, neither can
the people of the State Of Wisconsin
afford to neglect the opportunity to
elect one who has proved his loyalty
to the party and shown his devotion
to the lest business interests of the
State. We wish him success.

Our Next Assembly man.
EDITOR TINES:

EDITOR TINES:
1t seems now to be pretty well I'M
derstood among local republicans that
determined effort viii be made to
send a Douglas county republican to
the legislature this autumn. The pro-
priety of our claim to an assembly
man is quite generally conceded in the
other counties of this district. Our
claims are natural and logical. We
have not had nor asked for a member
of the legislature since 1861. Then
we sent a Democrat. Since that time
and up to the present this county has
always been overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic and we had no particular rea-
son for desiring a member of the
House from our own neighborhood.
But now things are changed, we are
now, for the first time in many years,
and we have reason to hope that we
may continue, republican county;
we have rapidly increasing popula-
ton; the commerce that comes into
this bay, to Superior, Connor's Point
and West Superior, has already as
sumed large proportions and our
friends and enemies alike will be sur
prised at the showing we VIII make
next year as compared with Duluth;
and last but not least Superior may
ask the legislature at It's coming SEES
sion to grant US d city charter. While
we were Of small account and had
comparatively small interests involved
we waived our claims, and were con
tent to let our sister counties haye the
representation they deserved, doing
what was in our power to enable them
to get it. Now it is meet and proper
we should be allowed to name the man
to go from this district to Madison,
and we trust our claims will be consid-
cred with that generosity we haye
hitherto manifested toward our neigh
bor5.

MADISON, Wis, Aug. 27.-Gov.

ptroller Durhay, of Washington, that
Wisconsin's direct war tax had been
adjusted. When Gov. Busk was first
elected the state owed the general
government $2O7, 800. To much Of

claims, and the final adjustment finds
the general government in debt to
Wisconsin about $4,000. 1t is anti
cipaled that Wisconsin will receive

The Duluth News Of Monday morn
ing gays: News was received here
late Saturday night Of The loss Of the
fine little steamer A. Booth off Grand
Portage, about 140 miles below Du-
luth. The Booth was going to Grand
Mareis, and in the dense fog and
smoke that prevailed last Friday her
officers in some way miscalyulated and
struck a rock about half a mile oil the
portage. In very few minutes after
striking, she keeIed over on her side
suddenly and went down, her bow
sinking into deep water, while her
stern caught on the rock on which she
had struck. Her crew and the eight
passengers aboard managed to secure
some OF their effects before she sank,
and put off in a lifeboat for Port
Arthur After going distance they
ran across the tug Camp, also in the
trade Of A. Booth & Sons, the owners
Of the wrecked boat, and were picked
up and brought to Duluth.
