The Democratic party Of Pennsylvania, by its

correction Of their incongruitie. and inequali-

Is will put American industry on firm and
permanent basis, covering the difference be-

people from useless and onerous taxes and from
extortion by trusts and monopclies controlling
the prices OF the common necessaries OF life.
That to this end, and that labor may be the
more enectually protected IN the enjoyments Of
its earnings and in steadiness and continuity Of
employment We give our most hearty and i'm
partial Endorsement to the recommendations Of
President Cleyelands last message to Con-

down in that message We commend to Congress

The Station Agents Of the Fort scott Sys-
tenn Send IN Favorable Reports.
KANSAS CRY, Mo-, May 36.-The condi-
ton and prospects Of the crops along the
line Of the Kansas City, Fort Scott q Gulf
road have been complied from reports sent
IN by the various station agents and make
avery satisfactory showing. The reports
are to the effect that the acreage of corn in
the section through which the road
passes is considerably in excess Of
last year, and although in some
localities the lateness of spring and
cold rains have had a retardng
effect, yet the general outlook is excellent.
The reports concerning wheat are not on
the whole so encouraging, but this section
is not regarded as a wheat country, corn
being the principal product along almost
the entire line Of the road. In m any places
wheat and oats have both suffered from
the chinch bugs, although their devas,a-
tions have been much less serious than
would have been the case had they
not been Kept down by heavy rains. The
average yield of corn will probably be
far larger than last year. In compiling, the
following series of questions were sent to
each station agent: !. What is the esti-
mated average OF the outlook of the wheat
crop in your vicinityl 2. How has the sea-
son been as regards rainfall and other in
fuencesl 3. Give prospects for corn and
other crops, also feeling among farmers in
your locality? 4. How does the average Of
wheat aud corn compare with that Of last
