1t is a mistake that Crispl
fell from and Rudini rose into
power on a question of the
Triple Alliance. No such ques-
ton was at issue. Crispi was
reckless in the expenditure Of
government, and the people
Of Italy groaned under taxes.
Rudini favored retrenchment
and reform, cutting down ex
penses, and thus lessening taxa
ton. Crispi fell, Rudini rose
rightly and justly. But they

had in anumber Of years. Since |
the Sth of April fine weather
has prevailed and vegetation
has made rapid progress. Farm
ers haverecovered some of their
lost time. The reports of cor
respondents for the week end
ing 24th indicate that planting
,orn and cotton is progressing
very rapidly. Much corn is up
well and some cotton with good
stand reported. Winter wheat
and oats generally looking very
well. Considerably less acreage
of spring oats and wheat plant
ed than usual on account of
very wet weather at proper
time of planting. 1t is to be
feared that many farmers are
planting too hastily, without
good preparation Of the soil.
The general rains of Saturday
night and Friday were very
beneficial and will bring up
feeds rapidly.
/ In the central district, which
includes this part Of the State
the reports are very encouraging
| Wheat looks very fine. To.
bacco plants plentiful, but
planting will be considerably
delayed. Cotton reported il
some places up to a stand By
the 18th.
