TINE TROUBLESOME LIQUOR CUES
TUGN


Massachusetts Republicans are to hold
State conference at Boston to discuss
the prohibition question, and determine
what attitude the party win maintain on
the subject in the next campaign. The
call for the conference, which is signed
by many of the most prominent Republi.
cans in the State, approves of the resolu-
tions of the New Jersey and Vermont
Republicans, which call upon the party
to take positive and pronounced atti-
tude of incorporating hostility to the
liquor selling interest of the country; to
everywhere reject all overtures for an
open or secret alliance with it, and to fa-
yor and promote all practical means for
the restriction of the liquor traffic.. and
for the enforcement of all laws for the
suppression of it's sale.
+ This means that the Republicans party,
which has been sustaining losses by
reason of the Prohibition scbism. from its
ranks, will, If in the opinion Of its lead.
era il will gain votes thereby, unite with
che Prohibitionists and make common
cAnse against the licensed sale of intoxi:

THE TERMS OF ASSESSORS.

The Legislature of 1883 passed an Act
extending the terms of the County Assess.
crs elected at the general election in
1882 from two to four years. It was
alleged that this was an usurpation Of
authority upon the part Of the Legisla.
turs, and that the Act was, therefore,
unconstitutional. To test the matter the
question was brought before the Supreme
Court prior to the election Of 1884, and
the Court decided the section of the Act
extending the terms Of the Assessors
elected in 1882 for two Iyears1 unconsti.
tutional The Act provides, however,
that there shall be elected at the general
election in 1886. and every four years
thereafter, in each organized county in
the State one County Assessor. As the
Supreme Court did not pass upon the
eonstitutionality of thisA provision, the
Eureka Sentinel asks: "Will the Assess
ors elected this Fall serve for term o.
two or four years,"
Section Of the Act of 1883, relating
60 County Assessors, says: There shall
be elected at the general election in 1886
and every four years thereafter, in each
organized county of this State, one
County Assessor" As there is no am
biguity 10 this clause of the statute, il
seems to definitely answer the Sentinel'i
question, and leave no doubt that the
terms Of the Assessors to be elected mex
Fall will be four years.

Condition of ti,e Crops.

CHICAGO. July 25.-The following crop
summary will appear in the Farmers Re-
view of this week:
The prolonged drouth, which is almost I'M
precedented in its length ana severity, is be-
ginning to have very serious effect upon all
late crops. The spring wheat outlook has
been in no wise improved, and the average
condition OF the crop has declined since July
l. when the Farmers Review indicated that
the probable total wheat yield of the United
States would not exceed a round total OF 420,-
100000 bushels. The tenor of the report in
dictates that this estimate will have to be re-
duced by from 10,00O,000 to l5,00D,000 bushels.
The reports from Nebraska. Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Dakota indicate an average
Yield of six to ten bushels to the acre, with
many fields entirely ruined. Corn
is reported very uneven in Michigan
Illinois. Wisconsin, Iowa and Nebraska
and while looking clean is in need of rain
and a shortage in the yield is threatened. In
Minnesota corn is looking well, but is begin
ming to feel the effects of the drOuth. The
Oat crop will fall short, with a promise of not
TO exceed one-half an average yield in Wis
consin and Minnesota, and thu ee-fourths of
an average yield in Illinois, Michigan and
Iowa With the exception of Minnesota, the
potato crop is threatened with a failure, few
of the reports indicating more than oue-half
Il yield, and in many sections a complete
failure. The pastures in all the Northwest
ern states are reported Is short and in large
sections ruined. In portions of Wisconsin
the cattle are given feed, owing tc in
ability to obtain sustenance on dried up pas
ture lands. The fruit crop of Michigan, Illinois
and WiSconsniS very promising.
