Owyhee horsemen have had a
huge lot of fun lately at Caldwell's
expense. Kelly has horse down
there which distanced all-comers
on the 18th of July, and conse-
quently thought he was invincible,
but late developments prove that
he is not in it. Some of the boys
took Sam Neally's "Leona" to
Caldwell and backed her against
Kelley's Theodore" but when the
race came off it was q walk-away
for the filly. The boys then
matched one Of A. D. McDonald's
work horses ~ against Theodore"
and beat him again. The Cald.
we'll boys are good fellows, but they
can learn a whole lot about horse
racing yet.

faster than home consumption Is in
creasing. and that is Argentina, and in
Argentina there were but 6,WO.OOO
acres under all crops in 1889, an increase
in ten years of less than 5000, 600,
or not one-tenth as much as
Europe requires, and from this
the added people OF Argentina must
first to be subsisted. We can accurately
measure the position of Argentina as an
immediate source Of supply to Europe
when we reflect that the area under the
plow in that country is but one-haf that
under the pillow in the state OF Kansas,
and that the population of Argentina IS
4, 000, 600 and the cultivated area Is equal
to one and half acres per capita. In
other words, if the people OF Argentina
consumed the products OF the SOIL IN the
same ratio as do those OF the United
States. they would be short three-quar-
tiers of an acre each and have to import
from more advanced peoples.

MORE BABIES THAN BRE AID.

There is but one way, one standard, by
which to estimate or measure the multi
farious and fiuctuating interests OF TINS
world, whether they pertain to Its econo-
mics or to the life of its humanity. and
that Is by its statistics. In the lines or
the statistician are to be found all ratios
and all ultimates. The tendency and
trend OF every vital fact involved In
human correlations, and of all the
exigencies growing out of the worlds
civilizations, can be traced and approx
nately estimated by recourse to tabu-
lated data afforded by reliable statistical
tables, in the absence of which there Is
little left but conjecture.
Mr.. C. Wood Davis of this county,
some time since, entered upon the task
of ascertaining through this medium
the probable future of the farmer
Of America and of the world, the
presumptive values of food products
compared with the prices OF the worlds
markets of today, and the contingent ad-
vance or decrease of the price OF arabic
lands. The result of his labors have ap-
peared in many Of the leading publlca-
tons of this and Of other countries, and
in some respects they have not only
overthrown the theories of the political
economist but startled the students and
statesmen. In our issue this morning
we produce another communica ion from
his pen, setting forth more newly or
more completely ascertained facts.
He is still endeavoring 10 gather the
statistics of food oduction-acreage-
in the grain-growing countries OF the
world at the close of the seventh, eighth
and ninth decades, and to get
the data all together, so as to
be able to determine just what is the
ratio of increase ir reduction and con-
sumption of the stape food products of
the temperate zones. He has been try
ing for more than a year to get the need
ed data, but the dunderheads at Wash
ington and those whom they have sent
abroad, with few exceptions, seem to
think Mr. Davis is some new crank who
has broken loose, and throw cold water
upon it. lie has, therefore. been play
ing q lone hand in trying to do what
neither Individual nor government has
ever attempted; and that is to determine
the rate of increase Of production for a
given period.
But, in spite of Washington indlffer-
ence, and the great difficulty of interest
ing foreign officials and statisticlans
Mr.. Davis has secured par
tial fluctuations of nine-tenths of the
area of the temperate zones, or really
about nineteen-twentieths Of their vol
ume of products. With all his previous
information he confesseS to astonish-
ment at the startling facts brought out,
prominent among which is the one that
the worlds babies are increasing in num-
bers in a geometrical ratio, while the
acreage upon which the world must de-
pend to feed all these added mouths has
practically come to stand still so far as
increase is concerned, and that newt
ably the world in the near future will be
growing hungry, j. e. that the owners OF
arabic lands and the producers of foods
will be the portion of the human race
who will be in high feather.

popularity with those relating TO the
great leaders of The civil war. The life

also an expensive work, has had almost
as wide sale. The comrade Of these too,
the third member OF the great trumvirate
of Union generals. William T. Sherman,
has lust died. In the estimation OF many
he was the greatest military genius OF
the war; his career as whole was GER
tainly the most romantic and inspiring.

that the sugar industry, which promises
much for the state, depends upon the
continuance for time at least, of the

Senator Bruce has not yet made up
his mind as TO the port in this country
which he will make the terminus of his
steamship line. 1t is said that he regards
Norfolk, Savannah and Brunswick with
great favor, and thinks that New Or
leans, Mobile and Pensacola have points
that are worthy of most careful consid-
Grafton. No doubt he is unable to salts
factorily adjust the advantages and dis
advantages which all of these offer, but
he would find just what he wants, in a
business point Of view, if he would ex-
tent his researches 10 the western gulf
coast and investigate Galveston and its
limitless trade facilities and scope of
territory to be accommo ated with ade-
quate shipping.

And this would double the amount OF

Money is simply due bill from society
to the individual, and should indicate
the value of wealth he has added to the
common stock, and entitie him TO its
equivalent in return.
AS the value of money varies In pro-
portion to the supply its volume should
be uniform. This would insure the
loaner a return of money of equal value
to that he loaned.
The absurdity OF the sub-treasurv
scheme is in he fact that III the fall
after the farmers had deposited their
grain and received their 50 per cent
there would be oceans of money, and
prices would 60 kiting. Then in the
spring and summer, when crops are
practically consumed and the money re-
turned to the United States treasury,
prices would follow McGinty. This
would be bonanza for the spectators.
Let the government issue $50 pei

Mr.. V. X. Stevenson, a broker in New
York, comes out flat-footed in favor of
free coinage. Like Banker st. John, Mr..
Stevenson Lot only has the courage of
his convictions, but very clear compre-
hension of true merits of the ease. He
believes in radical measures. He says:
France has the ability TO keep gold and
silver on par, and il we have not sense
enough TO do the same between our polit-
lcsl parties. the best thing we can do is to
import French inancier to help Us out -
Mr.. Stevenson is evidently in earnest
With few such men in congress the
silver question would soon be settled to
the satisfaction of the people. We con-
graduate New York on the progress she
is making towards free coinage and put
her on the silver list with pleasure.

LOST NORTH CAROLINA.

The Farmers Alliance in North Caro-
lima practically has that state under its
thumb. 1t has gained everything for
which it has fought. 1t now says it will
remember Mr.. Cleveland kindly for
what he has done, but that it is impossi-
bic for it to stand by him with his pres
ent views ON silver. The Alliance was
told long ago that Mr.. Cleveland had
changed his mind on the coinage of
silver, and that at the proper time he
would declare himself for free coinage.
When his late anti-silver letter appeared
it caused decided revolution of public
sentiment. The Progressive Farmer, the
organ of The Alliance of that state, has
abandoned Cleveland, and says that his
last letter on coinage has buried him be-
yond any hope of resurrection. Other
newspapers of equally influential stand
ing have laid him aside, and think that
New Yorks present governor is the man
for the Democracy in 90. This complete
turning around is not confined to the
Alliance camp, but seems to be the voice
of the people of North Carolina.
