for her own need. The estimated yield IN
that Republic is only 255.000, 600 bushels,
against 311, 900, 900 bushels for last year
The crop in France is thus not only short,

Italy will be short twenty-four million
bushels, and all the central portion OF the
Continent will require more than the nome

The exceptions to the prevailing gloon,
are Russia and India. The former Will

of wheat, against 255, TAI, 900 for last year.
and will have surplus of at least oo,ooo,
900 bushels to spare for export. Ihere are
conflicting reports from India, but all agree
that the crop has increased and is OF an ex,

The Work Before US.

AS the Lynchburg Advance very truly
says, sour democratic friends must not ex-
pect to carry the State in November simply
by public speaking. That sort OF work Is
of course very useful and important part
of the campaign, and will arouse to mark
ed extent the enthusiasm of the people.
But in great fight like the present and IN
times like these mere oannonading won't
win the battle. Musketry at short range
and the bayonet are necessary to do the ef-
fective work. People, we notice, are not
welded to parties like they used to be, and
marty lines cannot be drawn so distinctly
now as in other days. The woods are full
of estrayed sheep and innocent lambs, and
unless our well skilled shepherds go out in
to the wilderness and hunt them up there
is no telling how many of them may be lost,
or found missing, on the day of election
Our organization in each county or town
ship must be perfected, the voters must be
seen and enlisted, and the Importance of the
vital issues involved fully explained and
impressed upon them. We should know al
once what is our full strength and make
ample preparation to have every voter al
the polls.
In our towns and cities all OF this work is
quite easily and speedily perfected. But in
the counties and townships in the country:
where the population is far less compact
and more difficult of approach, the amount
of work required is altogether different, and
much harder to accomplish. Only sixty
DAYS remain to the election and the more
hard ticks our committees put in that shor'
time the better it will be for the party acc
the State.n

the government has not the olightsst use, but
which if left in the pockets of the people
would be great benefit to them in their
business.
ssWhat is to be done with it 1t is ad-
mitted on all hands that this surplus must
be reduced, for it goes on increasing from
day to day, if my memory is right. at the
rate of $4,000, 900 per month, without the
slightest necessity for it's so increasing.
"There are but three ways in which this
surplus can be reduced. The one Is py
extravagant expenditure ofthe government,
and no man will say the other is by the re-.
duction of internal revenue on whiskey aud
free tobacco against free clothing. The
third is by the reduction of the tariff on lm.
ported articles, and that is the doctrine OF
the democratic party. hope you will ad'
vocate that. hope you will advocate that
free trade which takes from every man the
taxation on everything he wears or his wife
wears or his children wear, and on every
implement of trade.
Here the Judges voice grew faint again,
and, concluding, he said:-'Gentlemen,
am unable to proceed. I thank you fol
your hearing, and I give way to others"
"Good night, Judged" shouted those i'm
mediately in front of him as he sat down.
"Three cheers for the old bandanna,'
shouted others and they were given with a
will.

Breckenridge and ButterW0rth.

The following is the conclusion of Brock

"What is the result of the prosperity

ifs and trusts and monopolies2 Do you all

system righteous that allows one mau to
roll up fortune OF 800, 000. 900 in twenty
years? Do you agree with Mr.. Blaine that
trusts are private affairs and have no place
in presidential campaign? My friend Mr..
ButterwOrth pronounces himself the foe of
trusts. l believe he thinks that he is. Yet
he says to you: Trusts, admit, are bad
things, and they are fostered by the tariff,
but you must endure the trusts rather than
touch in any way that sacred republican
creation, the war tariff The Chinese gov
eminent has rejected the treaty that aimed
to exclude Chinese labor. I am told they
did it because they were assured that Har-
rison would be elected and that they could
drive better bargain with him than they
were able to with Cleveland.
''My friends and fellow-workmen, for we
are all laborers together on Uncle Sans
great farm, let me give you two pictures of
the labor question. First look at Andrew
Carnegie living like a prince in Cluny Cas-
tie, and taking the great head Of the repub-
lican party, Mr.. Blaine, on royal prog
ress through England and Scotland. Mr..
Carnegie is the man who got more, far
more, than his just dividend out of the great
corporation to which we all belong. Look
at ME other pioture-Carnegie's men at
Pittsburg on strike because they did not
get their fair dividend, and Carnegie's
works policed by protection detectives to
whom he paid 90 day each. Would he
pay his men the little advances they want
ed? Oh, no! He wanted money to enter
tain his republican friend Blaine in Eng
land, and he preferred to pay hired detec-
tives IS day each to force his men, who
had served him faithfully year in aud year
out, to work for whatever wages he was
willing to grant. There is republican pro
lection to labor. Are you not sick OF it9''

A Republican Minister for Cleveland.

The Rev. John Wilson, pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church, Cincinnati, one
of the most popular divines in Ohio, and
hitherto strong adherent of the republican
party, has announced his purpose to vote
for Cleveland. Whilst in Pttsburg Mon
day he said to representative of the Daily
Post of that city:
"The thing that is causing me NEST con-
Germ outside of my church is the election
of Grover Cleveland. l sincerely hope he
will be continued as the occupant of the
White House, and am pretty we'll satisfied
that he will be. ! base my confidence and
faith in the good sense and good Judgment
of the thinking people. l do not see how
they can make the mistake of putting in
power the party Of high protection. It is
only question of mans sitting down
aud with an unbiased mind considering the
question. If he does he is sure to be a
democrat this year. TIE question OF tariff
reform appeals to the Intelligence and rea-
son, and it is just as plain as day. 1t is a
great mistake to advocate the policy which
would shut off all our trade relations with
the balance of the world. That is not pro-
lection in the true spirit, and it is as unlike
the protection that Hamilton and Calhoun
advocated as night is like day Our fore
fathers saw the necessity of giving our
manufacturers a boom, aad they put q tar
iff upon Imports which averaged something
like seven per cent. This was sufficient
when our industries we're indeed in their in.
fancy. Now why, when these infant indus
tries have grown to giant monopolics, grasp
ing aud squeezing the very existence out of
all that are compelled to deal with them,
why must these overgrown children be pro-
tected by tariff of half hundred per
cent? The fact is, such policy is mani
testify in the interest of the great monopolies
and against every body else, and che repu5-
licans have at last come out boldly as the
friends of these select classes as against the
masses of the people. The free-Whisky
plank of the republican platform does not
admit of argument. There are but two
sides, the moral and the immoral. The
proposition to let whisky 60 untaxed is such
an insult to intelligence and morality that
don't care to speak of it. The republican
party has fallen SO far from what it once
was that l can scarcely realize that once

TREMENDOUS MEETING-wAvING RED BAN

TREMENDOUS MEETING-wAvING RED BAN
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES ENTHUSIASM.
The N. Y. Herald of Friday says
A thousand spear points caught the blaze
of light that filled Madison Square Garden,
where twenty thousand voices roared out
democratic greeting to Allen G. Thurman
last night. The vast building was crowded
from wall to wall, and the clustered ban
ners that made the scene radiant danced
with the mighty breath of the multitude.
In addition to the host that waited
inside at least twenty Thousand people
crowded the streets surrounding the hall.
For hours approach to the place was i'm
possible. No such overwhelming demon
stration to single man has been witnessed
in New York for years. 1t was demo-
cratic earthquake.
Upon stage hundred feet long, from
which hung massive crimson draperies
festooned with American flags, was high
pulpit, on the front of which was a great
brazen eagle and outstretched starry ban
ners. Every pillar of the Garden upheld a
huge shield, surmounted by flags and
spears. Over the stage hung gigantic por-
traits of Cleveland, Thurman and Wash
ington. From the ponderous blue rafuers
stretched under the roof alternate gold and
blue curtains depended. The galleries
were bewilderingly adorned with the ma
tional colors.
1t thrilled one to look at such an audi
ence, stretching out in one solid mass OF
faces from street to street and avenue to
| avenue. Thousands of bandannas were
bound about democratic hats and the fut.
tering of. Thousands of tiny flags confused
the sight. When the audience laughed it
sounded as if mountains were tumbling
down. :.
| Outside four different stands supplied
speakers for the monster open air gather
ing that ohoked up the neighborhood'
Clubs and committees cleaning with
badges and preceded by bands Of music
moved in and out and around the place;
| The glare of fireworks lit up the sky IN all
directions. Now and then the outside null
titude would shout with enthusiasm.
