Nobody has thought of this southern country (Buenos Ayres) as one from which there may spring rival in wheat growing effort that may effect the mar ket of the United States. AS a matter of fact the thing is accomplished. and from the distrlo, from where I write wheat in gram and in flour IS already starting its remunera've journey from the pampas, and has brought back its
 value from Brazil, Chill and the Latin states of Europe. Encouraged by these results. the area of planting is increas- ing.

It seems unjust that territories should
 have governors selected for them from the far east, men who cannot tell the the difference between a jack rabbit and coyote, whs could not tell the flowers
 of the yucca plant from pond lily. The west is peculiar country and
 easten notions work mischief. The east believes in a gold currency, the
 west needs money and does not care whether it is stamped on silver or printed on paper; the east wants river and harbor improvements. our territories need irrigation reservoirs; the east grows slowly. and at regular pace or de- creases in a similar ratio so that men can guase progress or retrogression and gov ern themselves accordingly. but the west makes such rapid strides that pre- cederts are of no avail. Although it IS hard for Wyoming Territory to suffer  from the asininity of Gov.
