without saying that the independents
of all shades will be with MI. Cleveland
more heartily than before. Every
newspaper of independent policy which
supported him in 1884 is doing the same
thing now.
Here Is caln1 close. cool review of
chances as they appear in the first week
of autumn. Nothing. is claimed ON the
score of which ought to be or what
may be. We are looking at what re-
turns give of the actual. If there is
anything in sober calculation, Cleve-
land and Thurman will have every
state the democrats carried in 1884, and
by increased majorities.

CROP REPORT,

The Kansas. Farmer this week pre-
sents very full report of crops, cover
ing the entire state, made up of short
letters from special correspondents.
The state has not been in as good con-
dition since 1854, unless it be in the
number of hogs, which was reduced
greatly last year. With the exception
of half a dozen counties lying on and
near the Great Bend of the Arkansas,
the state is in good condition. Corn in
many parts is very heavy. in some parts
the heaviest ever raised in the history
of Kansas. With all the shortages in
certain localities, the crop for the state
as whole will, probably, prove to be
the heaviestever grown. Wheat though
somewhat injured by insects in places,
will average eighteen to twenty bushels
per acre, and the quality is generally
good. Oats were a little short in some
localities, but with the greatly increased
acreage the crop was very largee NO
accurate estimate of the yield can Be
made because a great Geal is being Se&
without shreshing. Sorghum is good
wherever groWa, and the same Is true
of milo maize Kaffir corn and millet.
Broomcorn has done very well in the
western countless apples, pears, and
small fruits have yielded well. Grass
is growing we'll yet, and stock is i'm firsS
class condition. The wheat acreage
will be increased in the western part of
the state. Seeding is now in progresso
The ground is in good condition. Kane
sas craps, with the exceptions notedo
are in prime eonditioA.
Following is the repoS for Barton
eountys SCorn in most of tho county
almost an entire failure. Sod has been
an exception, making q fair crop.
Southern part of county where there is
almost pure sand the crop is from faiS
to good, much cut for fodder. Oatsa
some few cases a fair crop, but much
was not cut, grain very light. Wheat
spotted, running from five TO thirty
bushels per acre. Seeding for wheat
will be large, but the ground will be
/ corn ground to the extent Of that cropo
as there has been no chance TO pre-
pare other ground ON account of dry
weather. Rye is being sown quite exs
tensively for pasture to 1engthen the
forage crop, which was never so short,
and the shortage is felt more for lack
| of corn and oats. Stock In fine con-
ditione Hogs being sold off,

Northern Seed Corn.

Our article on this subject two weeks
ago is attracting good deal of atten-
tion. In the same vein is the follow
ing, clipped from the Clay Center
Times: 90
"W. z. Higinbotham, one of Riley
county's prominent agriculturalists,
says the thing to do is to plant in April,
use seed from the north, thoroughly cul-
tivate and don't plant too thicks and
you can raise a good crop every year.
The land should be plowed in the fall.
1 should subsoil it, list ia April, and
after you think you are through culti-
vating, go through it once more, wish
the hoe if you can't go through with the
cultivator. During the last thRty
years there has been but one year, 1850,
when a good crop could pot have been
raised aollowing these Ruless We al
ways get q hot spell ia July, and it viii
not do to plant too late. Those who
planted early this season have good
yields. Another thing, said Mr.. Hsgins
botham, as to chintz bugs. Plow your
stubble land after cutting your wheat
OF oats, and next year there will be no
bugs to bother. There was not o bug
in our $50 acres Of wheat this season,
ieports NJ. A. Coe, as good farmer as
there is in Kansas, who is now plowing
for another sowing. As for old land,
alternate after wheat or oats with corn
Or barley and keep up the rotation. Mr..
Higinbotham lays special stress on
planting corn early, better when there
is snow on the ground than the last Of
May or June. Cultivate and don't
plant too late.-Kdnsos Farmer.

posing the second commissioner district
then proceeded to nominate a candidate
for commissioner The informal ballot
resulted in 80 votes for j. G.. Gwinn, of
Great Bend, and votes fer S. S. Shat
tuck, of Homestead. The second bal
lot was all for J. G. Gwinn. and his
nomination was declared unanimous.
The convention then adjourned.
Immediately upon adjournment of
the convention the newly elected MEM
bers of the county central committee
met and elected Che following officers:
Chairman, D. G. Luse; treasurer, j. ".
Brinkman; secretary, Will E. Stoke.
Now VOTERS of Barto1b county, you
have in the above nominees gentle
men of knOwn ability and integrity;
men who, if elected, would serve the
people with credit to themselves and
their constituents; men who have moth
ing in their public or private life that
gan be brought forward as argument
that they should not receive your suf-
frage. Most Of chem are well known
60 almost every voter in Che county,
and those who are not so well Known
invite the closest scrutiny as to their
honesty, integrity and ability.
Let no republican say that we do not
ask his vote for good men; let no dem
ocrat charge that the convention did not
act wisely, and let no man whe has the
desire to see good men elected as SER
wants of the public neglect to- cast d
fearless vote for the above nominees.

WHO PAYS THE TARIFF

per man who says the great mass OF
people do not pay the tariff? Suppose
the Arkansas river. bridge at Great
Bend was toll bridge, owned by the
city of Great Bend, and every load OF
corn that crossed it was required to
pay toll of five cents on the bushel.
Suppose then that almost all the corn
raised to be marketed at Great Bend
this year was raised south of the river.
Would not the Great Bend consumers
Of corn have to pay five cents bushel
mere for their corn than it was selling
for at some market, say st. John, where
the toll would not have to be paid? Or,
would the farmers of the south side
take just the same price for their corn
in Great Bend that they could get for
it at St. John, and pay the toll out of
their own pockets? Again, suppose
there were few farmers on the north
side of the river who had some corn to
sell, not near enough to supply Great
Bends demand; would not those farm
ers know that they could get as much
for their corn as the men of the south
side, the men who had to pay five cents
a bushel in toll? And would not
that toll bridge be instrumental in
raising the price of corn on the con-
s,u,ser just five cents a bushela And
yet, we heard a man whose name is at
the head of q republican paper as edi
tor thereof say that ''sonsumers do not
pay the tariff" and that ''any one who
said the mass of people do pay the tariff
did not know a id thing about it,"
In the above supposed case the south
side farmer is not benefited, he pays
in toll just as much as he gets over the
home price; the only man benefited is
the north side farmer who gets an in
crease Of five cents busbel more for
his corn than he would il the bridge
was free. But the consumers-and
there are thousands Of them for every
one manufacturer protected by the tar
if toll bridge pay just five cents a
bushel more for their corn than would
be necessary if the bridge was free,
north side farmers and the toll keeper
alone reaping any benefit. The north
side man represents our ''infant in
dustries'' (some Of them 100 year old
infants), the south side farmers repre-
sent foreign countries, and the toll
bridge the Us. treasury. Now, out Of
whose pocket does the toll come that
goes into the treasury? And in the
name of heaven, how can you figure
that either the foreign countries OF the
protected infant industries stand the
tOllp
II the people of Great Bend own that
toll bridge, aud Che toll collected is
more than the needs Of said people for
the purposes for which it is collected,
where, we would like our newspaper
friend to tell rs, is the use Of charging
toll on corn IL such toll has to come out
Of their own pockets in the endP Why
1 not make it one cent, and thus save
four cents Per busheis Why not make
| it a free bridget
Before our friend brands as fools all
men who do mot sec farther into the tar
itf question than he does, he should adj
vance some argument 60 back him up
in his assertion.
