even thirty seven bushels of apples in

was there so much as one small apple.
And the husbandman neoked the lads
and treated them roughly, for he said,
What is this that ye have done? For We
have cast my apples into tho street.
But the lads wept bitterly and said.
Nay, not so, Are thy servants pigs that
they should do such thing? And he
said, declare unto me. then, what thou

pointed at each other, even each one st

The suhstltute Tarir Eli

Washington special, I'd: There is
very little, if any, doubt that the repub.
lican substitute for the Mills tariff bill
prepared by the senate committee on
finance, will be made public and pub
lished by the press of this country with
in the next twenty-four hours, This
morning Senators Harris and Vance
the democratic members of the commit
tee on finance, who represent the minor
ity at present. received from Senator
Beck, who is at Fortress Monroe, the
draft of the minority report against the
republican tariff bill Senator Beck re-
quests that IN the event his colleagues
on the committee do not wish to accent
his report, that it should go to the SEN
ate as representing his views with the
other reports at the same slime the whole
matter is made public. Messrs Harris
ana vance were locked up in commit
tee room ell day going over the manu-
script of Mr.. Beck, and it is not known
tonight to just what extent the views
OF MIR. Beck will be used in the prepara-
tIon OF what will be the minority report
proper. AS stated in these dispatches
last night the tariff bill and minority
report which will go with it have
been ready for the public several days
and only the report to be submitted BY
the democrats is awaited. Late this
afternoon work was begun upon an abb
street OF the republican bill which is to
be officially given to the press to-mor-
row afternoon. This work requires a
great deal OF skill, inasmuch as the bill
is in an almost incomprehensible form.
The present law must also be consulted
closely in the compilation of an intelli-
gent description OF the bill. It is intend
ed that the measure shall be given to
the public on one day, and the majority
and minority reports on the succeeding
day. there being too much OF shem all
to receive publication on one day. Re-
publican members of the committee on
finance soy the debate upon the bill will
commence the latter part of this or first
OF next week, and that it is to be pushed
ahead as rapidly as possible. There was
good deal of talk among the democrats
In the house to-day, however, about q
recess of congress. The democratic
members OF the committee Oh ways and
means who are now in the city favor the
adoption Of q concurrent resolution with
in the next ten days providing for a re-
cess till about the middle of November.
and il is not improbable that before che

The Ball ts Railing,

Washington special: The Harrison
and Morton ball was tonight rolled
along Pennsylvania avenue from the
capitol almost to the white house gate,
and thence TO the republican league
headquarters on Thomas circle. The
demonstration was not an imposing one,
however, and it was, perhaps, on this
account that the occupants OF the white
house did not come out on the front
balcony to witness it. a band and the
hambeau club headed the line, and
about 100 ex-department clerks and o
contingent OF offensive partisans were
harnessed up to furnish the motive power
and keep the ball rolling. The ball IS
fourteen feet high, of red, white and
blue, and covered with such gems of
elegiac verse as follows:
American wool is good enough
To make cur coats and pants.
We do not banker after wool
From England or from France.
The muse that inspired the poetic
measure was a little hating in some
respects, but never tame, as will be seen
in this verse on the ball:
Cleveland with his free trade notion,
Has set the country in commotion:
The people will at the next election,
Vote for Harrison and protection.
The divine etflstus nevertheless tore
itself loose in this verse, which was the
most prominent one Ia the sphere:
Ben fought to keep the starry flag
Proud poised the union over,
With dauntless heart he did his part,
But where, oh, where was Grover?
The ball will go to Pittsburg, epd
from thence to Cincinnati, st. Louis,
Chicago and other cities that may make
1t an object to the managers.

Harden omitted all reference to Dakota
in his recent address at Huron. The
professor has mentioned Dakota but
once since he was turned loose in the
political field. Tha. Was at Yankton on
the occasion OF the first opening of tine
campaign. He then said he was not in

that remark the subject OF Dakota was
dropped and has not been referred to at

Miracle Of the AnnIes.

Burdette: Now when the autumn
was come, it was SO that the land OF
Burlington and the country around
about abounded with much apples, co
that the sound OF the older press ceased
not from morning even unto the night.
And in the morning the husbandman
arose, and he said, Go to, apples is not
worth much, but SO much as they will
fetch will have. And he laded up his
wagon, and filled its bed even to over
flowing will bell flowers, and seek-no-
furtners, and ducheeses, spitzbergens,
and snow apples and russets each after
Its kind. And when he was come nigh

him and spoke unto him delicntely, and
said, Give us Maple, And his heart
was moved with good nature, and he
hearkened unto their words, and said
unto them, Yea, climb in, and eat your
fill. And as he journeyed on he met
two other boys. And they vaxed bold

apples, saved when they paused that
they might take breath. And the hns-
bandman made merry and laughed with

not, fox they were busy. Now the eldest

Territorial Statist1cian Sheridan 8
monthly reports have become such o
series of wonders that they are worthy
OF place on the record as samples OF
what o statistician can do in the way OF

The September effuslon is out end the
statisticlan gives the substance of it, as
follows, under date of Ordway, Dakota:
The territorial statistician's report for
Oct, 1st shows that crops are even
North Dakota suffered severely by the
frost OF Aug. 10Th, and what grain they
have is email, shrunken berry and not
fit for milling purposes. They will be
Obliged to come south of the frost line
to secure their seed, as it Is doubtful If

frost. Some spots were not injured by
frost, bat not enough to cut any figure.
Central Dakota has produced fair crop,
ind of good milling quality. Two or
three OF the newer settled counties re
port good crops. South Dakota was
injured by the hot weather in July,
which FASTENED harvest fully ten days.
since harvest began little or no rain has
fallen, which has enabled she farmers to
secure the grain In good shape. All the
grain lhreshed 40 far has been dry
and in good condition, except where 1t
hes stack burned, on account OF it being
ont before folly ripe and stacked before
cured out. Very little rye is raised in
the territory, end is used mostly for
feed. Oats ore light crop, having rust
ed badly and also bliRhted some. Many
places will have to ship in oats before
another crop, while other parts report q
small surplus, The barley crop is light,
in common with other crops, but the
quality generally is good. The berry is
not as plump as some other seasons, but
the color is excellent. Owing to the
ruling high prices farmers are disposed
to sell their gains as quickly az they can.
and in many instances will sell them
selves short OF seed. From ell parts OF
the territory some reports OF prairie
fires, which have destroyed thousands Of
acres OF grain in the stack and which
must amount to hundreds OF Thousands
OF bushels of all kinds OF grain.
In his summary the statisticisn aver
sges wheat ss 9}l bushels per acre, rye
at IS bushels, oats at 26 bushels, barley
at 2011f bushels. The condition of buck
wheat is placed at II, potatoes ct SO,
sorghum at 81 and sugar cane st 78.
There is no mention of corn, which is
considered in this section as crop of
vastly more Importance than sugar cane
and fully as important as the wheat of
the wheat belt. His report as to north
ern and central Dakota is probably cor
rect, but when he enters the domain of
the south he is, as usual, far sstray.
