The U. S. Senate on Thursday, by
strict party vote, decided that the
census to be taken in 1890 shall give
the country no information in regard
to farm mortgages. The Democrats
have been urging these mortgages.

equal to the value of the farms, as
evidence of the extent to which tariff
robbery is impoverishing the tillers of
the soil. The refusal of the party
leaders to allow this evidence to be
placed before the country in an
authentic shape is simply an admis,

Those who are predicting a short
winter, and laughing in their sleeves,
might possibly amuSe themselves by
noting the following facts, which are
still on record. A reporter in CONVEX
sation with E. Y. Griggs, yesterday,
asked that gentleman if she thought
we were going to have an early
spring" "You can't ALWAYS tell,'
said Mr.. Griggs. Il remember away
back in the winter of 1866, when we
thought we were going to have an
early spring; but we had no control
of the weather, and on the 4th day of
April of that year. farmers crossed the
Illinois river at this point with their
teams on the ice." Col. Hit also re-
minds us that in the winter of 1896,
his brother, with family. drove from
La Sale to Ottawa on the river, and
this as late in the spring as April,
and the ice was still solid and firm.
SO there is no use in predictions, as all
can tell better what the state of the
weather will be, later.

The Utica Fire

In conversation with Mr.. Harmon
Higbee, Of Utica, on Friday, the fol-
lowing facts were obtained regarding
the late fire:
w. p. HAZEL was insured to the
amount of s., 900 on building, and his
stock was principally saved. He has
already received his insurance on the
building.
Learned & Collins lost everything,
their insurance amounting to $1,000 on
stock, they not owning the building.
DR.. Leland had 81, 900 insurance on
stock and nothing on his building.
Dan Madden had 81 ,0O0inSuranceOn
building and stock.
Mr.. Newcomber, who owned the
building occupied by Learned & Col
Inns, had no inSuranceon the building.
Ed Fitzgerald owned the building
next to Dan Madden's. There was no
insurance on this building.
Pat Stanley owned the building his
son was in. Loss, about $3.50; insur-
ance, 5000.
The village council had decided by a
vote to purchase a hand engine. A
committee had been appointed to go
to Chicago and ascertain what would
be the cost of hand engine. and also
had power to buy one, but had delayed
the matter for several weeks, and had
they acted according to instructions
and purchased the engine, the fire
could have been Subdued with but
little damage, as it was held in the
place where it first occurred for over a
half hour. The probability is now
that an engine will be forthcoming
The intense heat broke several plate
glass windows in the opposite side of
the street.
A. r. Griffin was in Ottawa Satur-
day, and stated to FREE TRADER
reporter that while the late fire in
Utica had demOralized the business in
terests of the enterprising little vii
lage, everyone who had suffered by the
| fire would rebuild in the near future
| that Utica was not made of the ma
terials to set down and cry over a
thing they could not help. The
burnt district" as before, would all
be built up with fire proof material,
in the shortest possible possible time
and the same parties would again re-
sumo business as though nothing had
happened.

The Cumberland Times takes upon
itself the air of ''Bildad the Prophet -
1t will be remembered that during the ses
sion of the last Legislature the Times advo-
Gated the building of Il railroad on the canal,
setting forth the fact that the canal was liable
to destruction by high waters if again put in
repair.
So much for prophecy. Now for full
tillmcnt
The following from the Baltimore Imcri-
cot of this morning proves the correctness of
the Times report:
Around WilliamspOrt yesterday the Ches;t-
peake and Ohio canal was again submerged.
The poor old ditch is having hard time of
it. 1t was year ago the last day of this
month that the great Hoods treated il so bad
ly. We fear that the receivers will scarcely
be able to put it i'll running order again.
The dangers are too great apital to venture
in its repair.
Laying aside the argument that
providence and nature are conformity
favoring the steal Of the canal, let us
bend ourselves earnestly to the task of
inquiring how much better is Il con
dition of submergence for railroad
than Il canal? Will railroad live
under water if the canal will not ?

Hon. LLOYD LOWndcS.

"Stalwart," in the Cumberland Ner~
of Friday Of last week, fills column
with Il proposal to the republican
party to run Hon. Lloyd Lowndes for
the House Of Representatives next
fall.
His history of political affairs in
this district since the lamented
Ritchie's day is quite interesting as
well as showing up III handsome terms
the part played by Mr. Lowndes in the
mutations which followed his signal
success in 1872.
With no political bias towards Mr..
Lowndes whatever. the JOURNAL is
glad to see men of his type named for
Congress.
Big men fol big places, not pigmics
upon the ''stilts Colossi," is IL maxim
that ought to be observed by all
parties. Give us battles between
giants, not scut1ics between dwarfs.
There have been names whispered
for nominations this fall that make
all who properly estimate the height
of the dignity to be reached and the
cubic measure of the responsibility to
be incurred, shuddcr at the vastness
of human egotism and presumption.
Should Mr.. LowndeS be nominated
and elected he will make a conserv-
ative, wise and useful representative.
There is no foolishncSs and no fireworks
in his makeup, but Il tremendous sight
Of business ability and force to bring
great and general good to all his CON
StituentS.
