.'FHEY STATES,
Idaho and Wyoming TerritOries
will Knock Loudly for
Admission.
What Is Being Done by Them Pre-
paratory to Assuming the Re-
sponsibilities Of Statehood.
The Senate Committee on Irrigation
Makes an Official Visit to Dakota
Constitutional Conventions.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-Perry s.
Heath, correspondent of the United
Press, who rs a member of Representa-
tive Dorsey;s congressional party, now
on the Pacific slope making a pleasure
tour of the far West and Northwest, has
visited all of the territories of those Sec
tions. writes from Olympia, W. T., as
follows: sit is the opinion of Congress-
men Dorsey of Nebraska, Stewart of
Vermont, Burrows of Michigan, and
others of our party and number of SEN
ators and representatives who have
visited the territories this summer and
whom have met in the Northwest, and
believe after a careful investigation of
the subject that
WYOMING AND IDAHO WILL BE ADMITTED
to statehood at the approaching session
Of congress. Wyoming has elected her
delegates and will call constitutional
convention in September. She will pre-
sent constitution to congress with a
full complement of state officers as did
South Dakota, and ask for admission to
the union. Idaho has almost completed
a constitution. Her convention met at
Boise City, the capital, on the 4th of
July, on the day the conventions con-
vened in the Dakotas, Montana and
Washington, and it will finish its work
n few days. She will then hold her
! election of state officers on the first dav
Of October, proceeding in every step as
did the territories which are to come
into the union OF states by presidential
proclamation in October"
At Cheyenne our party stopped a ciay
and night, and were entertained by Del
egate Cleary and Gov. Warren. OF the
outlook for statehood, both of them said:
"We have l25,000 people, and ore unan-
imous in our demand for statehood.
There is not q single obstacle in the way
and congress cannot deny us admission.
There was at first doubt as to the pop-
ulation of the Dakotas. and latterly re-
puted split as to the wishes of the people
for statehood. Nothing of this sort con-
fronts US. There is one great drawback
to the development of Wyoming, and
that is lack of water. Our agricult-
ural interests depend wholly upon irri-
cation, and for irrigation we await
statehood.

Boston's Principal Street.

An Omaha man recently arrived in Boston at the Boston and Albany station. The streets of his native city are laid out with regularity, it is we'll to state, and are of a width commensurate with west srn lavishness. The man from Omaha entered hack and asked to be driven to The driver proceeded, as had been his won't for years, and had nearly reached his destination when these words from the carriage window greeted him with considerable force and abruptness: Look here, driver; I'm tired of being driven through all these alleys. You've done aothing but go through them ever since we started. Now, get right on to one of the boulevards so we can get ahead" The driver had enough self possession to ,tammer In reply: "Why, sir, this Is Washington street, our principal street. :" Boston Times,

Who Owns tho Photoxraph9

Justice North's decision in London court that private photographs are pri- vate property Is a reassertion, or rather } natural application, of a principle which should be familiar. Unscrupulous photographers have claimed the right to sell and exhibit photographs of their customers against their will, and there have been legal opinions confirming this extraordinary view. Thus it has been held that the employment and payment of photographer to reproduce the feat ures of a private person, for the latter's private purposes, gave the photographer right to use the negative for the pub ication of photographs for public sale. Justice North, however, declares the photographer wholly in the wrong, and aptly says that while the negative be-
 ongs to the photographer the copyright
 s vested in the person photographed. This eminently sensible decision should check practice common abroad. For sunately, this evil has been less prevalent here, although it exists, and American courts, we believe, have decided that the photographer has no right to make mer- phandise of the ikenesses of private cus- ;omers.-Frank Leslies Newspaper.

Related to the Whole Crowd.

She was a large, muscular woman with strong features that indicated plainly her prominence in the domestic circle, and he was little, thin, weak eyed, meek faced man who only came to her shoulders. They sat side by side In a street car, totally oblivious of each other, as long married folks often are. They attracted the attention of two smart young men directly opposite them.
 "How funny they must have looked IS they stood up to be married" said one. "He must have looked like a lamb led to the slaughter" "Oh," said the other, "he was probably as large as she was in those days. Don't you know henpecked man actually grows smaller under continued hectoring" Just then the little man took his market basket from under the seat and left the car alone. She had overheard them, and in anything but dulcet tones she missed: Do you think own any more of these people cause happen to be on the same seat? You thought he was my husband cause he sat next me; dye think the rest of 'em are my relations too? Mebbe you're my second cousins cause you're n the same carr" She was wound up for several blocks further, but the loqua- cious individuals left the car without waiting to investigate any relationship.

His First Sermon.

A bright young friend of mine who is working his way through the Bates Theological school, and who will some Hay be worthy, and, as I believe, 8 successful worker in the Christian ministry, relates his first experience in supplying: II was pretty hard up, and that means considerable to me, for have never had any troublesome sur plus during my course. It looked as if would have to drop out while and earn something before I could go on, and I had about concluded to canvass For a book when got my first chance to supply. You may be sure accepted it thankfully, for to my mind it promised needed financial aid. The church was some miles out of the city, but didn't mind that. The next Sunday hired 8 livery team and drove out there and de livered my best sermon, and after taking dinner with one of the good deacons, started for home with the contents of he contribution box, which amounted to s1.50. My bill at the livery stable amounted to S2.25, so that was just 75 cents out of pocket by my first appear ance in the pulpit."-Augusta (Me.) Journal

The Slaughter at Khyber Pass.

One of the most terrible, as it is also ,ne of the most thrilling, tales that his tory has to tell is recalled by the an- nouncement in the Scottish papers of Miss Edith Brydon's marriage in 1nver- ness cathedral. This lady's father was the famous Dr. Brydon, of the Afghan massacre of January, 1e42-the one survivor who, wounded and faint and weary, after most perilous ride, reached Jella1abad to tell Gen. Sale the piteous story of what had taken place in the Khyber Pass. They were 16,0OO-or, counting women and children, ee, e,0O0- who set out from Cabul on that i'll starred journey, and he was the only one who had escaped. Between the dark crags of Jugdullak the murderous Afghans had their fill of blood. The Heath trap ran with the gore of soldiers, camp followers, women and children alike. Dr. Brydon alone escaped.-New York Telegram.

Disconcertinr a Witness.

Sir James Scarlett, when practicing at the bar, one day had to examine g wit ness whose evidence promised to be dam aging unless he could be previously con fused. The only vulnerable point of the man was said to be his self esteem. The witness, portly, overdressed person, went into the box and Scarlett took him neve?" "Yes." "You are stock bro- ker?' II ham," Scarlett regarded him attentively for few moments, and then said, 'And very fine, we'll dressed ham you are, sir."s The shout of laughter which followed completely disconcerted Mir. Tompkins, and the lawyers point was gained.-San Francisco Argonaut.

A RIFT IN THE CLOUDS.

Only a rift in the leaden clouds
 And a glimpse of the winter skies, That seemed as clear and blue to me As the light In my baby's eyes But paused on the threshold of sin Iingered-and turned away; Saved by the light of angel eyes,
 That smiled through the clouds of gray.

Superintendent of Gems,
MR.. BLAINE'S OPPORTUNITY.

St. Louis Globe Democrat.
Jane G. Blaine has now an opportun-
ity TO link his name forever with an en-
terprlse which his great prototype and
exemplar in the field of craftsmanship
ardently hoped for and eloquentiy and
vigorously championed. When Henry
Clay, as secretary of state, nearly two
thirds of a century ago, sent representa-
tives of the United States to confer
ence Of the republics of the continent
held at Panama, he had in his mind the
germ of the idea which has come 10 full
fruition through the labors of the man
who holds the same post in the cabinet
of President Harrison. The earlier gath
ering, it is true, was 20 deal principally
with plans to resist the threatened or
anticipated interference of European
nations with the affairs of the countries
in the southern part of the continent,
but Clay. il is known, favored and in
tended ultimately to press scheme of
trade reciprocity like that which Blaine
first suggested when member of the
ministerial council of President Garfield
in 1881, and which is now engaging the
attention of the Pan-American congress.
Clays project came to naught even
before he had an opportunity TO fairly
and formally present it to the repre-
sentatives of the other nations inme-
dlately concerned. for the conference at
Panama closed before the commission
ers arrived from this country, and the
conditions favorable to its renewal did
not present themselves again during his
service in the cabinet. Nor did the
times lend themselves to the scheme
subsequently during his life Tho CON-
diticns, however. have now changed in
the right direction. The menace of civil
strife which engrossed the thoughts of

THE WHEAT SITUATION.
nicago Daily Business ofonday,.

Chicago Daily Business Monday).
The wheat market was dull and very
steady today, viewed as whole. De-
cember wheat ranged SO IA and SO 3-4c,
opening at 80 1-2 and closing at 90 5-Sc.
May was weaker of the two deliveries.
opening at IS 2-2c, reacting and closing
at IS 3-8 and S. IA c. News was of an
unusually conflicting character. and
operators were unable to detect settled
drift in any direction, For instance, re-
ceipts at Duluth and Minneapolis for the
day footed up to ,495 cars, of which 652
cars were at the former and 1913 at the
latter. AT the same time it was an
nounced on the authority of the Mime
apolis Market Record that farmers de-
liveries in southern Minnesota and
South Dakota had fallen off heavily, and
that country elevators, in spite of the
hugeness of the movement, held only
100000 and 5000, 600 bushels against
a usual average of 20, 200, 900 bushels at
this time of the year. Again the visible
supply showed an increase of 1896, 600
bushels, exclusive of large
amount of wheat known to
have gone into private warehouses.
Yet the quantity going into private and
count for all the wheat that has disap-
peared from public view after having
left first hands. Arrivals at primary
markets since July are about up to the
average of recent years, but arrivals at
eastern points are many millions of
bushels below an average, and the Wis
ible is only 100000 bushels against
30, 0OO,00 bushels last year; last years
total in turn being below the two or
three years last preceding.
"Where has the wheat gone to-" is
the absorbing question that puzzles bulls
and bears alike, though the trade is
settling down to the conclusion that the
wheat has gone into consumption. A
leading commission merchant figures
that the exceptional barrenness of the
granaries at the beginning of the
current year was equivalent to short
age of 100000 bushels-in other
words. that the country must
absorb 100000 bushels be.
fore supplies can get to the starting
point of ordinary years, 1t has become
a recognized fact that the country was
extraordinarily bare of wheat July / of
this year, barer than it has been in
years, or than it is likely to be in many
years to come. Theorizing from that
basis, it is not so difficult to account for
the failure of wheat receipts to show up
in the visible at this stage,
1t is this condition of things that
makes the friends of wheat so full of
confidence in the face of bea1ish situa-
ton and an unquestionably bearish gen.
eral speculative sentiment. Today for
eign markets were steady, but exporters
no buying orders. Yet it is
noted that export clearances of wheat
alone amounted to 100000 bushels-an-
other contradiction.
Wichita eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1886-1890, 1889-10-19

farmers raise an average wheat crop OF
twenty-five bushels per acre. as they dlo
this year, that means TWENTY-FIVE push
els and not eighteen or nineteen bushels,
as the secretary's report puts It.

CONWAY Springs is better adapted to the

demonstrated that the sugar IS more uni
