America Must Feed the world.

WASHINGTON, July l3.-AreporV on
the harvest prospects il France and
Euro, e has been received at the state
departnent from Commercial Aeent
Griffin. of Limoges. France. The Ma
tional Millers Association of France, the
report says. has just issued an estimate,
founded on very carefully collected data,
of the probable wheat harvest OF France
and Europe for 1891. The estimated
yield Of wheat for 1891 will be 81, 49,
600 hectoIiters. This is the maximum
estimate. 1t will be 81 per cent. less
than the harvest OF 1890.
Russia. Tunis, Egypt and some OF the
Danubian provinces with have talr
harvest, and in Hunguray it will be be-
low the average this year.
The estimates given by the mlllers,
the report says, are optimistic. The
desire to create an impression that there
is 4 better supply than really exists IS
all done with a purpose; they went to
buy grain as cheaply as possible in those
fortunate countries that have an abund-
ance to export.
In conclusion, the report says that
not only France, but all Europe, is look
ing longingly to the wheat fields OF the
United States. Last year many hoped
that Soute America would help supply
the deficit, especially the Argentine Re
public; but today no mention is made
of those countries. The fact, as recently
stated. is that the bread of Europe must
come IRON America.

the proper place for him who loved
them all and labored for their glory.

where the human monster, man named
Clemente Vierra, was caught in the very
act of eating a portion Of the remains OF

paper Cida D. Leopoldina saw Vierra
in jail, and asked the prisoner If 1t was
true that he had nourlshed himself on
human flesh. Yes, SIR" answered the
prisoner, for some time l and my
friends, Basilo, Leaudro and others,
have eaten human flesh: in fact, we lived
on IT,"
The story goes on to relate the killing
and eating of several persons, until

later on killed Basilo. but had only eaten
a part of the body when he was arrested.
The rest of Basilo's remains was found

heard in the control of governm Int at

that none but those who have their IN
terests in farming be allowed to fill
such places Wenow appeal 10 all hon
est members Of the Alliance through

The platform also denounces the He

THE MINORITY REPORT
substitutes the following plank on free
trade and the unlimited coinage of silver:
1--WE believe in honsst money, the coin
age of gold and silver, and circulating
medium convertible into such money
without loss, and we oppose all legisla-
ton which tends to drive either gold or

maintaining the coinage of both metals

Follelt, of Cincinnati, placed Neaa in

t:adict the statement that Ill the Demo
Gratis from Hamilton county are opposed
to the presens governor for renomlna-
ion.
FoRAKER's MoNUMENT.
He caused great laughter by alludlng
to Foraker's defeat, saying banged up
editor and a patent ballot box were all
that was left 10 commemorate the mem
ory of the once mighty Foraker.
CAMPBELL, ON FIRST BALLOT.
Gov. Campbell was renominated sn
the first ballot, amid great enthusiss IL.
In accepting the nomination he CRATE
fully acknowledged the honor paid him.
He referred to the successes Of the DEM
ocratic administration in Ohio, and re-
butted the Republican charges Of extrav-
agance.
4 NATIONAL FIGHT
Continuing, he said:
The battle before US is essentially a
national one. Not only is this true be-
cause the result must seriously effect
next YEARS Federal elections, but also
because the Republicans Of Ohio have
unreservedly identified themselves with
every phase of the inIquitous legislation
accomplished or attempted by the fifty
first congress.
THE REPUBLICAN ''LosT CAUSE"
In their platform they have reaf.
firmed their adherence to the Infamous
force bill-the Republican lost cause-a
measure so obviously designed to des-
troy tree elections that Republican sena-
tors, unwilling TO violate their con-
science and oaths, refused to intlict 1t
upon the country" He concluded as
follow:
WORD TO THE ALLIANCE.

remedy the real grievances brought

Der that no third party can succeed. but
