The delay in the election of Mr.. Washburn
as Senator by the Minnesota Legislature, pend
ing the investigation of charges of bribery,
can hardly be more than formality. The
charges were made by disappointed and ex-
citable member, and Mr.. Washburn's character
is many times proof against them.
The Assembly ceiling scandal was brought
up yesterday, and steps were taken toward an
investigation. There seems to be a singular
fatality about ceilings for the Assembly. How
would it do. TO give up the attempt to have any
at all over that honorable body, and just
build high board fence around it, and let it
meet under the broad blue sky?
The official schedule Of games to be played
BY the Intercollegiate Baseball League has been
made public. The schedule indicates that the
muscle of the American undergraduate is net
likely 10 be neglected during this year. If the
schedules for 1880 of the other departments
Of college work are kept up to the baseball
standard no apprehension need be felt in re-
gard TO the immediate future Of higher educa-
ton in this country.
At yesterdays meeting Of the Board Of Al
dermen the Committee on Street Pavements
reported in favor of submitting to the Legis-
lsture an act empowering the city to issue
bonds to the amount Of So, O00, 900, in addi-
ton to tho regular appropriation OF 100000,
the proceeds to be expended in repaving such
streets as the Mayor may select and at such
times as he may choose. So great sum OF
money ought not to be spent on payements
which are liable to be ripped up at any mo-
ment at the command OF corporations. We
should also be glad TO know that the Mayor,
should he be invested with the authority,
would favor the plan Of making an adequate

CHICAGO. May 2S-The following ap-
pears in the Farmers Review: From the
spondents relative to the condition of
wheat oats and barley, it would appear
that the prospects for grain crops are. on
the whole. very favorable in all the terri
tory covered by our report except in Ohio,
Indiana and Kentucky, where drought
still continues. The condition Of winter
wheat has changed but little since our last
report, the average per acre is slightly
lower in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and
Kansas and a trIfls higher in Ohio, Michi-
gan and Wisconsin,. The Indiana spring
wheat is unchanged in Minnesota and
Dakota. Nebraska reports show some i'm
provement and those from Iowa a
slight falling off. Dat prospects
are good in Missouri, Kansas,
Nebraska, Michigan, Minnesota, Dakota,
Iowa and Wisconsin, particularly in the
two States last named Reports from In
diana, Illinois, Ohio and Kentucky
are not so favorable, doubtless
owing to drought. Barley growing
sections report the condition of
that grain, barely averaging in all states
except Dakota, where it falls considerably
below 100 per cent The usual acreage
has been sown to corn in Illinois and Kan
sas, but an increase is noticeable in other
srates, particularly in Nebraska, Mime
sofa and Dakota.

ness brought before them in the past
year.
1t received replies from sixty-one
points, scattered all over Kansas. and

that the cases of drunkenness numbered
$50, or a total of fully a hundred less

an average of 10000 population. Tie
answers sent the Globe are rather

the fact that prohibition Is a success
in the smaller towns of Kansas and
that the police courts of these cities
are practically idle throughout the
year, where several years ago they
were kept busy, not alone with cases
of drunkenness. but with thousands of
cases of misdemeanors, which were de-
veloped in saloons and among drinking
people.
