To Increase the Price of Wheat.

1t is announced from Chicago that the farm
ers' alliances and associations throughout
the country are being advised by u circular
Through accredited official channels" to
withhold this year. wheat crop from market
for time, SO that price above the average
of recent wears may be obtained for it. A
minimum price of $l.35 per bushel may be
had at New York, it is said, if not 81, pro-
yided the members of the various farmers
organizations, acting in concert, will keep
their grain in hand until there is proper
demand for it. The conditions at present
strongly favor rise of price. This years
crop Of wheat will be, it is estimated, some
500, OOO, 900 bushels, 350,000,000 of which
will be required for home consumption.
There would thus be 150,000,000 bushels for
export The average expectation in the last
ten years, it is stated, has been III, 100000
bushels year, of which amount the West
Indies and South America took 20,O00,000
bushels If the wheat crop of Europe and
India we're well up to the average, there
would be no special demand for the surplus
of q, 900, 900 bushels indicated by compar-
ison of our crop with the average home and
forsign demands But it is not up to the
average. On the contrary, the crops of
Europe, including Russia, are far below the
average, and the same is to be said of the
crops OF lnuln ana Argentina. consequently
a yastlyincreased demand for American wheat,
with a corresponding rise of price, is thought
to be certain. A rise of rs cents bushel
would mean an increased profit of SIPS, 000,
OC0 for those who sell at the right time.
To sell at the right time is the important
matter for the farmer If, as is usually the
case, all the farmers rush their wheat to mar
ket as soon as it is threshed out, the specu-
lator in grain, says the circular, will get the
whole benefit of the advance in price. If, on
the other hand, the farmers keep their wheat
at home till advised by competent alliance
leaders that the right figure has been touched,
the middeman will find his occupation gone.
What is proposed, then, is that the millions
of farmers engaged in the production of wheat
shall initiate other classes of producers and
form combination to put up the price of
their product. This is done by coal operators,
who among themselves every year fix the
price the public shall pay for coal. Steel,
copper, petroleum, sugar, starch, white lead,
cottonseed oil, linseed oil, binding twine and
carpets are but few of the many articles the
prices of which are fixed for the farmers and
others by combinations OF the men engaged
in their production. The Mckinley tariff is
a legal provision that these and other pro
ducers shall get for their wares higher price
than they would get if prices were fixed by
free competition.

Complimentary to Mr.. German.

The resolutions passed by the Democracy
of Carroll, last Monday, so far as they re-
ferred to him, were highly complimentary to
Senator German. Whilst every county in
the State that has spoken has endorsed his
course in the Senate, highly commended his
leadership against the Force bill, and de-
cared for his reelection, the Democracy of
Carroll went further and declared him deserv-
ing of any honor his party could bestow.
His name has been mentioned in connection
with the Democratic nomination for Presi-
dent next year, and the resolutions, in effect,
not only declare for his reelection to the
Senate, but also for his nomination for Pres
ident. Mr.. German should tip his hat to the
Democracy of Carroll, for this is the first
official endorsement of him for President.

1t is against the law in New York TO publish
details of executions, and great care is taken
TO insure secresy. Yet, whenever one takes
place, the newspapers manage to obtain and
publish details. The prohibition is senseless
and unconstitutional. The press deGes the
law, and no attempt to enforce it has yet
been made. 1t cannot be enforced, and if
not repealed will remain dead letter on the
statute hook
