NORTH DAKOTA CROPS.

GRAND FORKS, N. D., Sept. 1.-THE
Herald has collected crop reports from
fifty points in North Dakota. The unani-
nous opinion is that the yield has been
underestimated. The actual yield from
wheat already threshed Is from twenty
five to thirty-five bushels per acre, which
would make the crop far in excess of the
commissioner of agriculture's official esti-
mate of the crop. About 80 per cent of the
wheat is cut, and all the correspondents
agree that the yield is unprecedented

We are of the opinion that some
hOmely man "boomed' China Jim in
order to shut out his more handsome
neighbor.. The result, however, will
not be contested, as the election was
fair and impartial and wholly free from
the influence of "boodle." OF course
Mike Roberts may have used yard or
two of bologna and China Jim may
have recklessly squandered q busbel or
two of carrots, while Chris. Fahy may
have turned loose a bottle or two Of
"Blue Ribbon" Many others probably
did nothing worse than vote for them,
selves, and in some cases their judg.
ment is to be commended. We sin,
cerely trust that none of the candidates
will allow the green.eyed monster of
Jealousy to get the better of them when
they see the handsome Jim hobble
down the street under a load of decay,
ing vegetables. THE TRIBUNE will be
sent to Jim six months, who undoubt-
eddy needs good paper for his pantry
shelves.
