NOT TIME ENOUGH

Want of adequate preparation the
main cause, is the New York World s
view of it:
The chief reason for this disaster
is the want of adequate preparation
for meeting the issue. Eleven
months was not time enough to en-
tighten mass of unthinking voters,
educated for full generation IN the
belief that taxes promote prosperity
and that tariffs regulate wages. APP
preciatlng this enormous power OF
resistance in this inertia of ignor-
ance, the World questioned last June
whether the president had not, In
precipitsting the Issue so near to the
beginning of the active campaign,
done the fright thing at the wrong
time" We commended bis courage
but doubted bis discretion. Had
the issue been forced 8 year earlier
it is not probable that the errors and
sophistries and bugaboos OF the pro
tectionists could have prevailed
against the plain need OF the country
for a reduction of taxes through .

THE CORN CROP.
The Largest Since 1SS5--Plenty
of Hay and Potatoes.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10-Returns OF
the yield of corn made to the depart
ment of agriculture indicate that the
yield per acre is quite as large as
that of 1885 and larger than any
crop since that year. The aggre-
gate grown on o larger area will ex-
coed that of any American product,
being very close to two billion bush
els, or about thirty two bushels per
capita, which has rot been exceeded
in several previous years. The gen
eral average will fall somewhat un-
der twenty seven bushels. There is
a good supply Of maize in nearly all
parts of the south, 60 that compare
lively little will be required from
the west. The yields OF the Atlantic
states ere moderate; seriously re-
duced by frost on northern borders.
After three years Of low yields,
potatoes give an average OF about
eighty bushels per acre or nearly
the rate OF yield of 1879. The yield
has been increased ip the south. 1t
is high in the northern belt OF terri
tories. The total product is about
1876 600, 900 bushels or $1,000, 900
more than the estimated product OF
1887.
The Russellville Democrat., 1888-11-15

THE election returns show surpris-
ing results in addition to the election
of Harrison and the candidates for
governors of the various states by
the republican party in the north.
They develop the fact that the cry
of free trade did not cause the STAN
pede to the republican party in the
industrial centres that it did in the
agricultural districts. This is es
pecially strange since the farmer
was to obtain the greatest benefit
from the propositions contained in
the Mills bill. In the manufactur-
Ing districts the democrats made
great gains, and where the
manufactures were the most nu-
merous the democratic party showed
the most strength. But the farmer
element either did not take the
pains to study the tariff question or
wilfully adhered to the party of high
protective tariff, though they have
been the greatest sufferers from 1t.
1t is very singular that the intelli-
gent farmers of this country will
sacrifice their personal interests sim
ply for the love of party.

CLEVELAND DID 1T.
This is the watterson idea ex

This is the Watterson idea ex-
pressed in the Courier Journal:
"When in the early days of 1887,
the Courler.Journal undertook to
sound the alarm and to warn the
dangers which its want OF sympathy
with the democratic party was IN
voking, we were filled by the assur-
ance that the renomiation OF the
president was inevitable, and in
spired by the purest desire for his
re election. In the light of the re-
turns from the state of New York all
that was said by US at that time re-
reads today like prophecy. Mr..
Cleveland goes down among his own
people because of the friends chilled
to indifference or converted into enc
mics, partly through over confidence
in the star Of his destiny and part
ly through lack of those amenities,
which go so far to make men weak
or strong on occasions Of emergency.
When the trial came there was liter
ally no one among the professional
politicians to make the president
fight his fight, no one among the
great capitalists to advance consid
cradle sums of money, no one among
the leaders, inspired by the sublime
energy of professional devotion and
no enthusiasm among the masses
other than that brought out by the
cold issue of tax reform or started
spasmoGically by the figure of the
Old Roman flashing fitfully through
the confusion and tumult OF the fray.
To all approaches for help which the
president thought he had no right to
give his one answer was that this
was not the administrations, but the
peoples battle. When he was ask
ed directly from the national demo
cratic headquarters whether he was
for or against US, he smiled pleas.
antly and considered that which was
only half jest, as tribute to his
integrity as indeed it was though at
the expense of his wisdom. 1t is
true to say of him that he did not
raise his hand to help him from the
beginning to the end of the campaign
that he did not encourage anybody
else to help him and that In many
cases he did not permit his official
subordinstes to help him. This was
magnificent, but it was not politics,
undoubtedly not and all that had
preceded 1t made the difference In
the vote of the State of New York.
1t cost US and him the loss of it,"

THE COTTON CROP
Badly Injured by the Wet Wealth
er of observation-disclosures
of Picking.

WASHINGTON, d. g., Nov. TO-
The department of agriculture re.
ports a good season for cotton pick
ing during October In the south
west and only moderately favorable
weather in the Atlantic coast states.
The wet weather of September prov
cd very injurious to quality, prostrat-
ing the plants and rotting the bolls,
causing shedding and injuring the
prospects of the top crop. The fibre
is much stained and the quality is
much poorer than that of the pre-
vious year. Picking was late COM
mencing, but there has as yet been
no killing frost rendering a partial
compensation as to the length of the
season. Indications as to the yield
per acre average the same as at the
same time last year. Though the
previous condition ofthe plant scarce
ly warranted the expectation of so
much late growSh and harvest to
come in November and December.
The states west of the Mississippi
river report slightly larger yield
than last year, while Georgia, Ala
bama and Tennessee indicate
slight reduction. The other states
indicate nearly the same condition
as this date date last year.

y for the love of party.

The great political battle of 1888
is ended and business which has suf-
fered will soon resume its normal
condition. The campaign In many
respects has been memorable one.
1t had none of the disgraceful feat
ures of that of four years ago for 1t
has been slngularly free from scan
dial. There has been much less o.
personal defamation and parti-
san bitterness. The character and
talents of both candidates were
treated with unusual fairness.
1t has been to very large
degree campaign of intellect.
The tariff question has been likewise
attacked from every point. The most
ignorant person has some conception
of the subject which he did not here
tofore have, and the intelligent have
had their views enlarged upon the sill
important question. The democratic
party can stand defeat with good
grace, for it has brought the tariff
home to every household while it
will not lie dorment, but its study
pursued, and when four years have
again rolled around it be found that
Grover Cleveland was the honest
champion OF a movement for the
benefit of the people, and the next
democratic nominee will be elected
on the same issue.
The Russellville Democrat., 1888-11-15

WITH the executive and legislative
branches Of the government in the
hands Of the republicans no time
will be lost in admitting certain ter
ritories in the west to Statehood in
order to increase that party's chanc-
es in the national election of 1892.
The hope Of overcoming this gain
and neutralizing its effect lies in
the fact that the census of 1890 prom
ises large benefits to the democratic
sections of the country.

GOV. HILL ON CLEyELAND's DEFEAT
Thinks he deserved better at the
hands of the people:
"Our success in the gubernatorial
election is marred, however, by the
shadow of the national disaster. In
common with every true democrat l
greatly regret the defeat of President
Cleveland in the state and in the ma
ton. He deserved better at the
hands of the people of this country.
Honest, brave and courageous, he
CALAMITY led his party in the great
contest for tariff reform and suffers
defeat owing to false clamor, unjust
prejudices, unfair representations
and the gigantic and combined eff
forts Of all the monopolists of the
country. He did his duty, as he IN
derstood it, regardless of personal or
political consideration and he should
have been sustained by the tax-pay-
ers, consumers and masses Of the
people, whose true interests he de
sired to subserve and whose rights
he unselfishly endeavored to main
tain. 1t is not how necessary or
profitable to say whether this issue,
which he so boldly made, could not
more wisely have been earlier pres
ented or postponed to later period,
1t is sufficient to say that the trusted
leader of the democratic party after
full and careful consideration OF
the whole subject, deemed that the
best ana truest interests of the coun-
try required the issue should be
made at this crisis, and with that
patriotic and deliberate conclusion,
when once reached there should
have been prompt acqulescence."
