CHICAGO Tribune: The time-honored
question of cooperation between the
Presbyterian church North and South
came to hearing again in the General
Assembly Yesterday in the adoption OF
a report favoring it, but carrying with 1t
an amendment offered by the Rev. DIR.
Stryker of this CITY striking out that
part of the report which reads: while
conceding the existing situation the
Northern Assembly approves the policy
of separate churches, presbyteries, and
synods subject to the choice Of the col
ored people themselves" The adop-
ton of this amendment by. the large
vote of 400 to 30 is, ofcourse, tantamount
to vote of the assembly against sepa-
rate churches for white and colored
worshippers. OF course, also, it will be
promptly rejected by the church South
and by a much more unanimous vote
than that by which the church North
approved it. The Southern Presbyteri-
ans are not vet religiously reconstructed.
The action of the Northern brethren is
morally right, but neither as morals, as
sentiment, nor as religion will be adopt
ed by the South. Had the former con-
ceded that each church South might
settle the question for itself-in other
words, allowed the Southern churches
local option-they would have consent
ed; but it will be long time before they
will concede that the negroes have. a
right to pray or preach or sing in the
same church as white Christians or that
they can get to heaven over the white
mans route en- masse.

man is Ex-Governor Foster of Ohio, and
William Warner, grand commander of
the Grand Army of the Republic, and
Gen. Crook are the others. Irwin Miller,
son of Justice Miller of Iowa, is the chief
clerk and disbursing officer. There are

Sioux to give up their lands at the price
of $1.25 per acre. There are 1900, 900
acres in the tract, which reaches through
to the Black Hills. There are some
other railroads which would like to go
through, and other interests which feel
as if they would be pleased to have some
of that land. 1T will be another Okla

this is much finer land than that. We
think we shall succeed this time. At
least we have every hope of it. We will
probably start Thursday morning, and l
hope when come back I'll have my

THE States so fortunate as to be out of
debt are Illinois, Wisconsin, Delaware,
West Virginia and Colorado. West Vir-
ginia is prohibited by her constitution
from going into debt. California and
Iowa have no debt to settle, though pay
ing interest on a school fund. Kentucky
is nearly free from debt. New York
owes 81, 900, 900, Ohio and Minnesota less
than s, OO0, 900, New Jersey and Kansas
less than 100000. Virginia is the
most heavily burdened, having funded
debt of over So, 600 900, and an unfund-
ed debt of over $S,OO0,OOO. Massachu-
sets carries the next heaviest debt, over
S3l, 100000. Next come Tennessee, ST., =
600, 900; Pennsy lvania, $15, 600, 900; North

tai Indebtedness of all the States is $780,
600, 900, which is less than one per cent.
of their aggregate taxable property. The
rate of taxation is heaviest in Nevada,
Nebraska and Louisiana. And though
Massachusetts stands second in the size
of her debt, she has the lowest rate of
taxation in the Union-less than twelve
cents per 500.

The PIllsburys of Minneapolis are
said to be considering plan for the for
nation of big stock company to take
control of their immense milling bust
ness. The idea is to relieve themselves
of a heavy business responsibility and
give them an opportunity to sell out or
withdraw more easily in case any of the
firm should so desire. OF course the
Pillspurys would hold the lions share
of the stock, but would be able to trans
fer some of the load of the management
to other shoulders. G. A, Pillsbury is
now in New York and could not be seen,
but ex-Gov. j. S. Pillsbury says: "We
have considered the advisability of
forming a stock company tor our milling
and elevator business, so that it would
not involve so much responsibility as it
now does. We have been approached
by Minneapolis parties with that object
in view, and / think, too, their intention
was to consolidate other large local mil
ling property with our own. Nothing,
however, has as vet come of such a
plan"

In its weekly summary of crop condi.
tons the Pioneer Press of Saturday morn.
ing says:
Reports on the condition of crops
throughout the Northwest are somewhat
varied. In some localities there has
been a scarcity of moisture. but Utmost
cases the conditions are favorable for
growing crops. The damage by recent
frosts is not as great as first reported,
except to garden truck. Chinch bugs
have made their appearance in several
places, but as yet have done no damage.
Returns from stations in Minnesota and
Dakota on the line Of the Northern Paci-
fic railroad are very uniform in their
tenor as to the favorable weather which
has existed throughout the country dur
ing the past seven days. The heavy
rains of the week previous have been
followed in most all parts of this terri
iory by cool, cloudy weather, and in
many cases by frequent showers; this
has enabled the wheat to stool well, and
altogether everything has been favorable
for small grains. Some slight modifica-
sions of this state of affairs exist in the
Red river valley, where they have not
been visited with the same amount of
rain as in other parts, and while it has
done very we'll through the last week
the country is again getting dry and in
need of further rains In the near future.
There is also an impression among the
farmers that in the district around Cas-
selton, Wheatland and Tower City the
high winds and dry weather of some
time since have done some damage
which will not be repaired, and may af-
feet to some little extent the final out
come of the crop. So experienced
farmer as Oliver Dalyrimple claims, how
ever, that he has no doubtthe estimated
damage caused by wind has been great
Iy exaggerated, and that much that &C.
tually occurred has already been reced-
ed. He thinks that with continued IA
vorable weather Minnesota and Dakota
can count on very fair crop. 1t is GER
tain that, taken as a whole at this stage,
the crop is under very favorable condi-
tions. and what damage actually oc-
curred by dry weather and winds was
at such early date that opportunity has
been afforded TO repair.it.
