In all this discussion about farmers
holding their wheat in order to COM
pei purchasers to pay higher price
we don't hear much about the inter-
ests Of the man who has to buy -four
the price of which is based on the price
Of wheat. A good price for wheat is
necessary for the prosperity Of the
country, but would it be a fair deal
to force wheat to All artiicially high
price and thus make the workingman
pay more than legitimate price for
his -four. The industrial Union'
should consider both sides of the
question before joining the Alliance
in a move to increase the price of
wheat above what it would be if mar
keted at the usual season. A comb.
nation or trust in wheat is Just a. un-
fair as in binding Irvine or any other
commodity.

GRAND Forks, N. D., July o.
The weather during the past week has
been such as brings joy to the heart
Of the farmer. The days have been
warm and the nights cool and pros
poets were never brighter. A contin-
uance Of such weather will make the
wheat yield of 1891 the banner yield
in the history Of North Dakota. The
weekly reports from points on the rail-
way lines estimate the yield at from
% to 35 bushels per acre, but this is
probably an optimatic view and an
average Of 20 bushels will be nearer
the correct figure. This will be an in
crease ofbetween eigh: and nine bush
els per acre as compared with last
year.

The complaint Is made in North
Dakota that the Nothern Pacific does
not furnish good enough facilities for
prompt shipment of wheat in tho fall.
Between the spectators who are try
ing to force the farmers to market
their wheat and the railroad mana.
gers who are preventing the farmers
from marketing it, there is urgent
need of more advice from the Alliance
Press Bureau. With this rather un-
expected aid from the railroads the
advice to hold the grain will be
easily followed.

BUFFAL0ES IN NORTH DAKOTA,

BUFFAL0ES IN NORTH DAKOTA.
JAMESTOWN, N. D., July s0.-Two
buffaloes were seen some 80 miles
south u this place last Sundy. "A
ranchman gave them chase, but being:
poorly mounted. failed to capture
either animal. These buaaloea are
doubtless the last of tho race that are
ut large. Certainly no others are
known to be east of the Missouri river.
a few years ago a small band were dis
covered feeding in the hills a short
distance from this city, and one big
bull was killed at the time and one
or two others the next season. How
these buffaloes have managed to escape
slaughter for 90 long a time is = mys-
terry, as they have been pe,istently
hunted by both whites aud Indians for
two or three years.

From the silly remarks some Of the
Democratic papers are making about
the Republicans hoping for success
this fall on the strength of the good
crops it is evident that those Democrats
hope for success through destitution,
poor crops and hard times. We trust
the friends of Calamity will try to
bear up under the coming prosperity,
even if it is accompanied by Republi!
can success. OF course, Republican
success is terrible thing to contemp-
late but we can all make an effort to
appreciate good times, and endeavor
to forget its political significance.

Great Climate.

we have the death rate ia very small.
In eastern or western states there is
at least one or two months each
year that is very unhealthy but not
so here, where we have twelve
months OF sunshine and good health
per year. This sentiment is proven
by the hundreds of persons who
come here from the east, west, north

contracted while living where the

About ChatanOOga.

In a letter to the Anoka Herald
Hon. Alvah Eastman writes as fol-
lows about Chattanooga: !
Chattanooga is booming. 1t has
been "boomed" before, when the
cannon was In command. Now the
'boom" is as noisless as the sunlight,
and, instead OF tearing down, it is
building up magnificent blocks, mills,
factories and elegant residences. Its
growth has been rapid; it's prosperity
is substantial. There are many
Yankees here and under their guild
ance it is destined to become the best
city OF the South. A good system Of
sewers and paved streets effectually
shut out it's old-time pest-yellow
fever. Electric cars run from the city
to the foot of Lookout mountain
and also along the top of Missionary
Ridge. Ispent Sunday on the noun
tain. 1t was delightful day and
the grand view was enhanced by it's
interesting historical association.
A Pennsylvania soldier pointed out
to me the scar on the solid ledge,
near the top OF the mountain, made
made by a cannon ball fired from
Moccasin Point, across the Tennessee
river. Standing on the height and
looking down the almost perpen-
dicular sides to the level below, ap-
preciate as never before the wonder
full charge made by the boys under
Hooker, capturing the seemingly un.
assailable stronghold fortified as it
was by the bravest of the desperate
Rebels. Little wonder that there
are so many tombstones in the gov
eminent cemeteries! The mountain
Is fast becoming popular summer
resort. There are many pleasant
cottages, and several immenee hotels
offer f1rst-class accommodations to
visitors. An incline road lifts THAT
is the only word that expresses it, it's
load OF passengers from base to top,
or you can take the longer dummy"
road-and wind back and forth along
the sides and around the mountain
to the summit. tits claimed that from
the mountain one can see Alabama,
Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia
and Kentucky, besides Tennessee. I
am little near sighted myself, and
draw the line at Kentucky. Y0ucan
see, beyond the shadow Of doubt,
one OF the bloodiest battleields OF
the war. Chattanooga lies at your
feet, back OF it Missionary Ridge, and
over that Chickamauga.

ssTHE SPLENDID DEMOCRATIC
SURPLUS.O

SURPLUS"
New York Press: Memory would
be very short indeed that could not
recall the terrific outcry Of the Demo-
cratic press aud leaders in the period
from 1884 to 1883 about the surplus"
in the United States Treasury. 1t was
charged that Republican legislation
had piled up money there to such an
extent Is to cripple business, and that
it was drawn from the people by
taxation and boarded a. means of
impovershing and 90 controlling the
people. 1t is not necessary even to
go back to the newspapers of that Pc
Rod to obtain quotations ofthe Demo-
cratic alarms about the awful and ter
rible "surplus". We refer to it by way
Of mildly remarking that Governor
CAMPBELL Of Ohio cannot have very
high estimation Of the intelligence Of
the Democrats of his State, as repres-
ented by their delegates in convention,
for in his speech at Cleveland he ar
raigned the Republicans for proaigacy
and extravaganza in dissipatiug what
he termed 1.-THE splendid Democratic
surplus" The Governor must think
he can catch that surplus coon coming
or going. But the surplus was q Re
publican surplus, and as the Demo-
cratic party did not know what to do
with it the Republican party went
back into power to reduce it,; which
has been done, partly by wise appro-
priation, for the public good and part
~ by taking the duty of sugar and
other articles Of vide consumption.
The Democratic party does not know
what to do with either q surplus or a
deficit or rebellion or any other cri-
sis Of government, but can simply cry
out for free trade, free silver and
free whisky, without knowing whether
or not it really wants any Of them.
And the Tammany organs which
now shout "billion dollar Congress"
in our ears do not specify a single
item Of alleged extravaganza or excess
sive liberality, although the complete
record Of the last Congress expendi-
lures has been before them exactly
1875 days.

WHAT'S O'CLOCK?

1t is a common experience with any
group Of half a dozen gentlemen, that
no two watches in the crowd mark the
same moment Of time. It causes no
particular inconvenience, but suppose
such variations occurred among the
clocks Of the more than 1900 stations
on. the great Burlington system?
What assurance would there be Of
safety from collision2 Very little.
But the system Of efecting absolute
correspondence between all time
pieces in use on "The Burlington" is
perfect, and has been reached at the
expense of much money and trouble.
Three minutes before 4 o'clock every
afternoon, an operator in the Chicago
general Office begins sending out the
word "time," and continues it for fifty
seconds. He then connects the auto
matte signaling mechanism, and 1900
telegraph Instruments from Chicago
to Denver and the Black Hills, and
from St. Louis and Kansas City to
St. Paul, signal the seconds in unison
with the big clock In Chicago. It
lacks one minute and twenty seconds
Of 4 o'clock. There is an interval of
twenty seconds. Then the telegraph
instruments call q double click with
each swing Of the big pendulum for
40 seconds, and then comes three dots
(Morse signal for letter "S') which is
notice to all Offices having synchro-
nizins standard clocks to bring their
clocks into circuit to be automatically
set with the master clock in Chicago.
Another brief pause, and there comes
q single sharp click, which indicates
that it is just 4 o'clock. With all
watches and and clock in exact cor
respondenee, no train allowed to
follow another closer than five
minutes, and trains running in
opposite directions carefully watched,
1.-THE Burlington is the line for
safety. For tickets, timetables, etc.,
