FOREIGN MARKETS.
,innati Commercial Gazette.

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
The foreign market is being held out
by the free-traders as the hope of Amer
lean farmers for the disposal of their
surplus products. India and Russia,
however intend having something to say
about this. British official figures, quoted
by the U. ). Report of Commerce and
Navigation for 1889, show the following
extraordinary growth of the expectation
of wheat from those immense empires,
where the cost of labor is but a bagatelle
compared with what it is in America.
In 1870 there were exported from British
India 195,012 bushels of wheat; by 1879
the amount had increased to 1,920,122
bushels, and by 1889 to 32,S94, ,925
bushels. The wheat expectation from
Russia increased from 1856, ,653 bushels
in 1880 to 126, ia, 726 bushels in 1888.
The area of wheat cultivation is con-
tinually increasing in India, Russia and
Eastern Europe generally. Steam plows
are being used, and there is an extension
and cheapening of transportation facili-
ties rivaling the development in this line
of the great American West. The farm
ers of the United States have within
the last few years had to contend with
new kind of competition-tha of the
Canadian Northwest, which itself is large
enough and productive enough to be the
worlds granary.
Those demagogues who. ARE endeavor-
ing to make political capital out of the
glutted state of the agricultural market
and the consequent low prices in this
country are careful not to mention the
fact that the English farmers are in a
more depressed condition than are their
American brethren. Even with factories
at their very gates the English farmers
are complaining of low prices, and are
abandoning their farms because of the
enormous importations of food staples
from abroad. According to the New
York Produce Eachange Weekly the
price of wheat per bushel in England
in 1877 was $1.72, and had averaged
Sl.64a per hushel for the ten preceding
years; but now it is down to 89I cents,
or a fall from 1877 of S3I cents-nearly
one-half. Herapath's Journal, of Lon
don, an economic and commercial au-
thority, says regarding the agricultural
situation in England.
"The depression in wheat commenced |
in 1873, and has been gradually becom-
ing intense ever since, until within the |
last few weeks the official average price |
for England and Wales has been little |
in excess of 29s per quarter. The re-
markable depression which has now
continued for nearly twelve years is
due, first, to the existence of long peace |
between the principal countries of the
world; and secondly, to the extraordinary |
facilities which now exist for moving
wheat from all the great producing dis
trictS."
In what possible manner would free
trade benefit the American farmer under
this condition of affairs in "the markets
of the world"

THERE is one Democratic bribe- giver
in West Virginia, says the Pittsburgh
Commercial Gazette who has a mean
opinion of Republican voters. He pre-
sented one of them with good load of
whisky, then three drinks more, then an
additional quart, then IS and Demo
cratic ticket. Then the perverse and
ungrateful Republican went and voted
the straight Republican ticket, and be-
sides brought suit against him for at
tempting to bribe a voter, and he is now
on trial.

TAKE CARE OF THE VETERANS

TAKE CARE OF THE VETERANS.
New York Press.
One of the things that Congress must
not forget or ignore at the present session
is the Republican pledge to the soldiers
of the late war. Democratic Congresses
have spat upon the veterans, while we
have promised them justice-and they
only ask Justice when they ask for pen
sions in their old age. So far Congress
has done well by the old soldiers. through
special bills and the Dependent Pension
bill. But service pensions is the ultimate
requirement which alone can satisfy the
soldiers and redeem Republican prom
ises. Neither the tariff bill nor financial
legislation, important as they are, should
be permitted to obscure or delay proper
pension legislation. The Democratic
party will make great effort to secure
control of the next House. If they sue
ceed no pension legislation can be ex-
pected. The Republican majority of
the present Congress must therefore take
care of the old soldier while the power
rests exclusively with Republicans

GENERAL JOHN C. Fremont has been
retired in good form. He had the good
fortune to win fame as pathfinder, to
be the husband of Senator Benton's
daughter, and to be identified with the
idea of freedom for the territories.
Misfortunes have crowded upon him in
old age, but he has never lost his cheerful
courage, and now he is sure of modest
competency. Congratulations to Ere
mont and Jessie are in order.-M. III. in

the bill as it is. But the carpet men in

THE JOYS WE CANNOT GET.


Contentment is a priceless gem that very few
possess;
We sometimes miss the things we need to bring US
happiness.
The gods may strive TO guide us into pleasant
paths. and yet
We re ever vainly signing for the joys we cannot
get.
The tall man wishes he were short, the short man
would be tall,
The little man would weigh a ton, the large man
would be small;
The dark brunette would be blonde, the blonde a
dark brunette;
And thus We all are signing for the joys we cannot
get.
The tender youths are wishing for maturer years
ofmen,
And older hearts are signing to be tender youths
again;
Whate'er We have or haven't is a source of real
regret,
We'd throw away the joys we have for those we
cannot get. Exchange.

The OLD HOMESTEAD
Annual Report on the Industrial
Christian Home.
SOME VERY PROFOUND REASONS
Why the Women of Utah Don't Run TheiI
Legs OF TO Become Benefciaries Of
This Benevolent Abode.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The annual report
of the board of control of the Utah commits
sion Of registration and elections of the
Industrial Christian Home association OF
Utah, says the fewness of inmates of the
house is, in the opinion of the commission,
due to the restraining influence of the Nor
mon church, and that female pride which
interprets position in the institution as an
evidence of degraded pauperlsm. The COM
mission is also of the opinion that if Con-
gress would make an appropriation to en-
able them to purchase fixtures and appli-
ances, such as sewing machines, etc, and
employ competent teachers, that industrial
departments could be opened in which girls
could be taught self supporting vocations.
The report recommends that some discre-
ton be given to the comm ssion in the mat
ter of the admission of beneticiaries, and
that they be permitted to pay their trans
portatioa expenses from different parts Of
the territory to the home, by which means
they would secure q large number of in
mates. Regarding the success of the IN
dertaking, the report states that the COM
pletion of the home building is so recent
that the association has not yet had an OPP
portunity to demonstrate its success.
