WHEAT AND FLOUR.
The Biggest Feathers in the Cap
of MinneaDOIiS

There is no particular thing in which
the pride of Minneapolis can spread
itself as upon the wheat and flour sta
tistics of 1887. The year was not only
the greatest in the history of the city,
but the result so far exceeded the Wild
est anticipatiohs that they were a mat
ter of worldwide comment. The total
wheat receipts reached the magnificent
total of 45, 047, 100 bushels for the year
ending Dec. 1, and for the fiscal year
nearly S4S, 100000, an increase of nearly
14,000,000 bushels over 1886. 1t stamped
Minneapolis as unQuestionably the
primary wheat market of the world.
The flour figures are no less crafty
ing, but there is every probability that
the record of 1883 will far exceed it.
The following table shows the output
and export, IN barrels, for the past four
wears:

is an oft told tale. Every year grasses
the high water mark of those which pre-
ceded it, and if it does not accomplish
this feat all around, it does so in every
essential detail and in some so thor
oughly as to leave no doubt0n the aver
age. For instance, if the building OF
1887 did not come up to expectations,
the wheat receipts ran far beyond the
most Sanguine estimate. The banking
business eclipsed any previous gain
and the jObbing total was a long
stride in advance of the step
made by any other twelve months.
Milling and manufacturing, great as
they have been, enter this week upon
year from which the greatest returns
are expected. In every way the city is
III a vigorous, healthy and prosperous
condition, and faces the new year with
the highest of hope and the brightest of
anticipation. Its people are happy and
contented and its lot among those OF the
bleSt upon earth.
The GLOBE this morning presents the
most important and interesting of the
city'S statistics, in compact and read
able shape, compiled from the most re-
liable sources. There is no effort at
padding and no thought of belittling.
but every subject is presented just as it
iS-and with its own comments.

The objection to new street car
lines on the ground that the streets
are already too much numbered with
the rails of street cars is an objection
that might have passed muster fifty
years ago but is altogether TOO anti
quated for this day ami generation.
This city can stand any quantity of
such objections and there is every ar
gument in favor of new franchises
for properly managed and located
roads while not one valid objection
can be urged against them. Ten peo-
pie ride in street cars where one rides
in carriages, aid the suburbs of this
city must be connected with the
plazas and depots by street rail if any
is to come. Spot the
men who oppose improvements and
put progressive men in their places.
This is the only policy to pursue if
San Antonio is to get out of the ruts.
There is plenty of room on the retired
list and in the lap of past ages for the
men who think San Antonio over
burdened with street railway lines.
