of making known to the world ut

cayuses unless we are ready and

that we have n productive
soil and climatic advantages which
can be turned to account in the
raising of fruits and almost every

time is short in which TO gather in
the material for creditable display.
A commissioner should be appoint

provision should also be made for
his compensation. Otherwise the
whole business will be failure.
What will you do In the matter?

The Weekly Crop Bulletin.

Inc weekly Weather-crop bulletir,
issued by the United States signal Office
for the week ending August s. ssgsi
The Weather during the week has
been dry and some days very warm,
with high winds. All late crops have
suffered from tho protracted drought
and hot weather. Local showers have
occurred in some sections, but in nearly
all cases where sufficient to relieve the
drought were attended by destructive
hail. Hailstor,ne hrn reported from
araha. McCook and Minnehaha coun-
ties. Rain is needed in both states,
and in few localities reports indicate
that it would now be of little benefit to
any crop except grass. Stacking of
small grain is in progress in South Da-
kota and harvesting in North Dakota.
For this week the weather has been
favorable.
Sergeant Glenn also adds. sin view
of the numerous requests received at
this office for estimates on the wheat
and oats yield in the several counties,
the sergeant IN charge is considering
the adyisability of issuing, late in the
season, bulletin devoted TO this spe-
eial featnrc, and to that end respect
fully asks that correspondents please
post themselves as far as practicable on
tho average yield of these crops over
their entire county, as we'll as in their
immediate vicinity. Should the special
bulletin be issued 1t is desired to make
it as complete and reliable as possible, .

A Bad Ereieht Wreck.

DUBUQUE, Aug. 16.-A bad wreck oc-
cured last night on the Chicago, st.
Paul and Kansas City road at Almoral,
q little station in Delaware county.
About 1890 o'clock freight train was
standing on the main track at Almoral
station, being delayed two hours with
somo repairs about the engine, and had
neglected to put out danger signals,
when another freight came in at about
forty miles per hour. The engineer
could not perceive that the standing
train was on tho main track until too
late to stop, and, after throwing the air
brakes, he and the fireman jumped for
their lives, and their train crushed into
tho rear OF tho other train, totally
wrecking tho engine and about twenty
cars, which at once took fire. There
being no water at hand they were en-
tircly burned, and when revealed by
daylight were reduced to smoking
mass of debris. Eleven of the cars
were loaded with fax seed, valued al
$1.25 per bushel. Two trainmen were
badly injured and were brought by o
special train to this city, where they
received medical assistance. Both
trains being loaded with through
freight the loss is very heavy.

Ben Butler out of Politics,

BosroN, Aug 16.-There is good deal
of comment, public and private, over
the statement made by General Butler
at the Grand Army campfire on Wednes-
day night to the effect that he had
hidden farewell to politics and had done
with it forever. General Butler has
said as much to many Of his friends on
previous occasions, but this was the
first time that he had made the public
statement of the fact. The doughty
old warrior, politician and lawyer is
fast approaching the sere and yellow
leaf, and those who know him best say
that he says what he means in announc-
ing his final and absolute withdrawal
from any and every kind of political
life, and shat not the strongest provoca-
tirn or temptation will induce him
again to go into campaign harness.

Mississippi's Constitutional Conven

I
JACKSON, Miss, Aug 12.-The state
constitutional convention opened here
today for the purpose of revising the
constitution. There is large attend
ance OF delegates. Tho main purpose
of the convention is to devise ways and
means which will not conflict with the
federal constitution for tho disfran-
chisement of the negro race. A large
number of coiored men are on the
ground, and as the result of an energetic
campaign they have many delegates
present favorable to their cause. They
claim that the convention is designed
by the democratic party to abridge if
not to destroy their liberties. They
say that they are not responsible for
the race issue, but charge it to the
white line democracy. Prominent dele
! gates to the convention have denied
that it is anti-negro or that it's guiding
motive is the disfranchisement of that
race. They say that no extreme meas
ures will be embodied in the new con.
stitution, but that while 20 attempt
will be made to discriminate against
the negro, the illiterate, worthless and
| ignorant of both races may be denied
| the suffrage.

TRAFFIC IN HUMAN FLESH.
Horrors of the Slave Trade in Soutlier

l5OrrOrS OF JNc slave lrauc IN southern
LONDON, Aug. 16.--Horrible accounts
are received of the slave labor traffic by
British planters in the south seas. The
Presbyterian mission synod in the new
Hcbrides has passed a resolution to the
effect that 1.-The Kanaka labor traffic
had to large extent depopulated the
New llebrides and adjoining islands,
upset family relations among the ma
tives, and has been and is the cause of
much sorrow, suffering and bloodshed." /"
A missionary named Patton reports that
he had himself seen white men in their
boats taking kanakas to labor vessel
as the slave ships arc called-forci-
bly, lifting them on board, and when
they tried to swim ashore they were
knocked down again and again, until
they lay stupcfed on deck, and were
thus cArried out to sea. Those thought
likely to escape are fastened with
chains on board. A chief was shot dead
by the crew of one of these vessels
while attempting to protect his daugh-
ter, and a native Christian teacher was
also shot dead. This slave trade is car
ried on under the protection of the
British flag for the benefit of planters
in Queensland and the Fiji Islands.
