TANNER SOBERING.

The pension organ at Washington
puts its demand within this limit: 1--WE
must have S12 moath for each man till
we die: we must have arrears clear
back to the war;" Even Corporal TAN
NER is said to hesitate at this pro-
gramme. A Republican paper says he
is becoming sobered by the RESPONSE
bility of power. He has favored an
indiscriminate and general pension
service, but is alleged to realize now
that there may danger of overriding the
matter. The country is clamoring for
a reduction of revenues, and, as he
views it, the payment of S144 a year to
every survivor of the Union armies,
whether poor or rich, crippled or sound
in health, would endanger the whole
pension system. or, at least, be injuri-
Gus to the interests of those who really
need the aid. Possibly some higher
authority has discoursed in the TAN
NER ear, if he has really caught hint
in this direction.

Pennies Are Legal Tender Now.

Washington Post.
The action of that New jersey bank
in DUN ping $4,000 in silver on its floor
in payment of its checks in the hands
of rival institution brings up the ques-
ton of legal tenders. Gold has always
been legal tender in the United States.
With a brief interval previous to the
passage of the Bland act silver dollars
have been also. Greenbacks are, but
gold and silver certificates are not, ex-
cept On customs, taxes and public dues.
National bank notes are not legal ten
ders, and can be, and often have been,
refused in payment of debt. SubSidi-
airy coin is legal tender only in limited
quantities.

PARNELLITES PIQUED.
They Cannot Get Justice From
the Tory Commission-Mar
Sullivan on Deck,

Sullivan on Deck.
LONDON, July 12.-After the adjourn
ment of the Parnell commission today
meeting was held at the chambers of
Sir Charles Russell. at which the lead
ing members of the Irish party and
their counsel before the commission
were present. The greatest indigna-
ton was expressed at Judge Hannen's
ruling in excluding the books of the
Loyal and Patriotic union, which Sir
Charles Russell sought to place in evil
dence. Mr.. ParneIl and Mr.. Davitt
were present at the meeting, and Mr..
Parnell expressed his determination to
personally resent this injustice on the
part of Judge Hammer. 1t was deter
mined that the protest of the Irish
party against the ruling should take
some practical shape, and it was sug-
gested that all the counsel for the Par
nelliteS be instructed TO withdraw
from the case forthwith. In this way
only, it was argued. could the
lrlShmen involved in the charges before
the commission, show to the world that
they were convinced that they could not
get justice at the hands of this one
sided commission. The discussion was
entirely upon the question whether all
the Parnellite counsel or Sir Charles
Russell should withdraw, most of those
present favoring the latter course. No
decision was reached. but it is quite
likely that Sir Charles only will with
draw, and he will do so next Tuesday,
at the same time stating to the court his
reasons for so doing. While the Parnell
commission was in session to-day a lady
approached the court, apparently with
out the knowledge of the counsel on
either side. and explained that she was
the Margaret Sullivan who was said to
have travelled from Paris to London in
the company of LIE Caron. She came
there, she said, to deny this statement,
which she did with every manifestation
of indignation. The woman who did
come with LIE Caron on that trip, she
said, was an American lady, and did
not resemble her in the least.

PRETTY FAIR OUTLOOK
In the Brookings Region for
Wheat, Corn and Most Crops.

In the Brookings Region for
Wheat, Corn and Most Crops.
Special to the Globe.
BRooKINGs. OAK, July 12.-While
there is drouth, and wild rumors are
floating about concerning its effects, it
is not nearly so serious as crOakers
would make out. Your correspondent
drove over one-third of this county
Tuesday in the company of one of the
pioneers of the Sioux valley. After a
careful inspection of hundreds of fields,
considerable questioning of farmers and
a close estimate of the probable yield,
these conclusions were reached: Corn
is good crop here, just as reported
from all of South Dakota, and the yield
will be fully up to the average. There
is a larger acreage planted than
ever before, and its growth in the
last few days has been phenomi-
nal. Flax will be almost an average
crop for seed, though the straw from
early fax will be very short. All flax
sown late on breaking is a good stand.
and growing very rapidly. Oats have
the poorest prospect of coming out of the
kinks. They will be less than one-third
of an average crop, though several fine
fields of heavy well-headed and we'll
filed specimens of this grain were seen.
WHEAT HAS SUFFERED
much less than oats and numerous large
bodies of the staple cereal were OBJ
served. 1t is generally sown upon the
best land on the farm. and more care Is
bestowed upon the preparation of the
ground for it than for any other crop.
There are very few fields of wheat in
the country that will not pay to harvest.
Numerous fields were estimated at
twenty bushels and more per acre.
while a large acreage will yield
from FIVE to ten bushels. To be
more explicit it may be put in
this way: All wheat on new ground is
good; all soWn on summer falloW the
same; while that upon corn ground is
first-class, whether on upland OF bot
tom, on north slope or south slope.
There is no denying the fact that good
farming pays, as is shown by the good
fields Of wheat upon high land sown to
that grain last year, and for many pre-
ceding years. Several such instances
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1889-07-13

were noted where the crop will be ten
bushels or better per acre. By good
farming is meant blowing the land i'm
mediately after the crop is cut some
even blowing between the rows of
shocks before the grain would do to
stack, letting the harrow follow right
after the pillow, dragging twice over be-
fore seeding, and again after seeding.
Those who are bound to wheat the same
ground year after year must go at it in
about that way, if they expect results
of a dry season. By so doing, and es-
pecially by using press drill i'll seed
ing, they may be able to punish the
land with
SEVERAL CROPS OF WHEAT
In succession. A much better practice
would certainly be to change crops year
after year, and especially plant more
corn. A great many farmers are loafing
about town till harvest, or moping
about home scOlding the wife, cutting
the children, kicking at the cat and
railing against the elements who would
be better employed blowing up some of
breaking the prairie for next years
crop. Late in the fall, after the rains
are done, is poor time to pillow. A
larger acreage than usual is being
broken up this year. The recent rains
will bring out the late crops, make
abundance of pasture and plenty
of hay to cut after harvest.
Grain will bring a good price to the ia
vored ones. The people will learn
many valuable lessons from the expert
ence of this season. Wisdom is more
lasting and valuable than large wheat
crop at small prices-besides it can't be
mortgaged nor hailed out. The cheaper
bottom lands will assume their rightful
place in the lists Of the Woodworking
land agent. The poor, downtrodden
machine agent will waste less axle
grease in chasing the honest husband
man about, to sell him the latest i'm
proved and patented invention for cut
ting, shocking, stacking, threshing,
grinding and eating up his crop all at
one wide swath. 1t is thought best not
to state all the conclusions drawn from
the observations made.

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Before leav-

president said that the length of his
visit to Deer Park depended great
deal upon circumstances. He expected
to return to Washington next Wednes-
day, but he might find when that time
came that there was no special neces-
sity for his presence in Washington in
which event his return would be post
poned indefinitely. The chances were.
however, he added, that he would meet
his cabinet in Washington next Wednes-
day. 1t was learned from another
source that Secretary Window and
Private Secretary Halford will return to
Washington next Tuesday regardless of
the presidents movements.

reasons the president can find to put in

There are no real reasons but the sup
posed advantage Of the Republican

that two or three Republicans might be
sick, and more offices can be filled by
the faithful at an earlier date.

A WALL STREET paper deprecates
the enactment said to have passed the
legislature of Michigan reducing sleep
ing car rates from 25 to 40 per cent. If
it is enforced, no one will need to lose
sleep in that state in consequence. The
rates are generally about double those
of good hotels, and the cars will still
run if there is reduction.
