which the heads of the various labor
bureaus of the country will meet to de-
wise some plan for securing more &C

of these statistics they may prove val

It is claimed, that, through neglect
of certain officials, the gathering of the
usual crop statistics for this year will be
rendered quite im posslble. The law
provides that each township assessor
shall transmit to the county auditor, on
the first Monday in July certain agri-
culturalstatistics and attachesa penalty
of not more than fifty dollars in case of
failure to do so. At the same time, it
provides that proper blanks be furnished
by the commissioner Of statistics who
happens to be assistant secretary Of
state. These blanks have not been fur.
nished and no satisfactory reason has
been given for not making the necess-
airy provision for obtaining the reports
Mr.. Stockenstrom, who is the com
missioner, states that the Legislature
contemplated other methods of collec-
ton, but failed to take action. This,
he says, gave him insufficient time te
prepare blanks. As the result of this
apparent neglect we will be deprived Of
the statistics, which have always been
of much value, as they give the acreage
and average production per acre Of
every farm in the state, making it pos
sible to give comparatively certain IS.

The politicians and Office seekers

French Republic was inaugurated last
week with imposing ceremonies.
Nearly all nations are represented
in the exposition and the populace
are enthusiastic over thier grand dis
play. In the outbursts of patriot
ism all partisan jealousies and strifes
are forgotten, Boulanger is lost sight of,
and naught but the spirit of patriotism
has sway. 1t is to be hoped that the

centennial, stronger and more republic
an than ever and able to avoid the dan

in the world was opened at Baltimore
last week and dedicated to the memory
Of the well known philanthropist, John
Hopkins, of Philadelphia. His name
IS already closely connected With our
institutions Of learning. at the head Of
one Of our best universities. To these
he has devoted his immense fortune
and they stand to-day, lasting mem
orial 70 the noble impulses of truly
philanthropic man. 1t is not often that
men, successful in business and who
have, through hard labor, acquired
great wealth, will regard those posses
sions as only theirs to use in beneiting
mankind and in elevating the condition
of their fellow men. Such men are few
in number and they occupy an equal
station with our heroic ones. They are
of that small number who are not born
to die and whose deeds make them re-
membered for all time. They have
travelled road to lasting fame that
other possessors of wealth might well
seek to emulate.
Bishop Potter, in his centennial ser.
mon at New York recently, uttered
some sayings which may well be taken
as warning by our legislators and rep.
resentative men; and while they do not
reflect particular credit upon tie pres
ent administration, they are neverthe-
less true. This country is fast going
into condition, which omens no good
for our republican government. An
aristocracy Of wealth is rapidly gain.
ing control of this country, which men
aces the liberty of the people. And
yet no one will blame the president. Of
whom it was said by the Bishop, that he
had no time to devote to craftsmanship
This condition is forced upon the ma.
gistrate by our detestable system Of
politics. which through its corruption
makes it base. So long as every mar
is a candidate for Office, so long will the
president and his advisors be hamperee
by hungry horde Of hunters who vii
sacrifice honor and all else to gain theil
ends. 1t is true that an administration
of to-day is not like that Of Of the grea
Washington. The fault lies not will
the head of the government but with as
the people, who have permitted our
selves to stagnate our own atmosphere
by winking at corrupt practice.

Senators Washburn and Davis cannot
agree upon the appointment of Unit
ed States district attorney for Mime
sofa. Both are pledged to staunch sup

they want any suggestions as to way

be backward in asking. Perhaps there
are those who could readily devise a
way of solving the attorneyship puzzle.

The state of trade in the east is I'M
usually perplexing, for, with general
complaint of dulness, there are evil
dences that the volume of transactions
islargs. The payments through banks
last week were Is per cent. larger than
for the corresponding week last year
at New York, and 16 psr cent. larger at
all other cities, and, while speculation
in stocks and products accounts for
much of this increase, ard another
part is but reflection of heavy BUSH
ness done last fall, the gains appeared
at so many cities, and are so large,
that the new transactions of the week
can hardly have been below last years
mark. Railroad earnings also show
that traffic Is large, though apparently
bat little in excess of last years. The
demand for money is sufficiently active
at nearly all interior points, moreover,
to indicate that large business is in
progress. Yet it is undeniable that the
prevailing temper is one of disappoint-
ment at the results of business since
the new year began, and this is not
wholly explained by the steadily de-
clining prices of products. The re-
ports from commercial centres are far
from gloomy. Much of the existing
di ap pointment IS undoubtedly due to
the arrest of railroad building and the
stoppsge of wheat export, which are
traceabie to specu' alive influences.
The decline in wheat continues, the
price having fallen 25s cents for the
week. The record of $120 for wheat
October 9th looks rather absurd, in the
light of subsequent events, but at the
prices reached this week, 93X to 93T
cents, there has been some buying for
export, though not as yet for Great
Britain. There is little activity in
groceries, but the sugary market favors
holders, though the Estimates make
the worlds production 5.240, 600 tons
against 4,045, 600 last year. the general
average of prizes has fallen s. OF one
per cent, for the week. and more than
2 per cent. since January LIST, with
little prospect of an upward movement
at present. In the financial world
there has been no disturbance, though
small shipment of gold to. Europe,
and large defalcation by financial
agent of a leading insurance company,
have occurred. The supply of money
here increases, both by remittances
from the interior. and by excess of
Treasury disbursements over receipts,
which reached 81 700 900 for the week.
The foreign trade at this port con-
tlnues to improve, and while imports
thus far this year exceed last years by
per cent. the exports of merchandise
from New York show q gain of IL per

The board of directors of the Salt

oeive sealed proposals for ground upon
which to erect Chamber of Commerce
building up to the 18th of this month,
the right to reject any and all bids be-
ing reserved. AS stated heretofore, if
the site offered be a corner, which is
preferred, the dimensions must not be
less than 50x125 feet, if an inside lot
MT less than 80 feet front and from $50
to 165 feet deep, with right of alley-way
on one side. The cash price of the
ground must be stated, together with
the amount of money adjacent prop
erty owners will donate toward pur-
chase of lot and erection of building.
The sites offered must be within two
blocks east or west Of Main Street and
between South temple and Third
South Streets. The building is to be of
brick and stone, or either, and not less
than three stories high, exclusive OF
basement There are dozens of sites
within the area mentioned, any of
which would prove eligible for the pur-
pose namsd. It is also true that the
selection of either one of these by the
directors will have the effect to increase
values within the immediate vicinity.
Taking this view of the matter, there
will bs no little activity among prop
cry owners within the area mentioned
during the time intervening between
now and the 18th. Several verY liberal
