Roswell Flower has been named
as the democratic candidate for
governor of New York. J. Sloan
Fassett, is the republican nominee.
The fight will be a warm one as
there are dissenters on both sides.
Lieut. Governor Jones, democrat,
who was a candidate for the nomi-
nation threatens to lead an indie
pendent movement. This would
be a disastrous move against the
regular ticket, as Flowers great

discovered man placing obstruc-
tons on the track last Non1ay
night just before the west bound
passenger train was due. The OBJ
struction consisted of ties and large
stones and would undoubtedly have
caused a terrible wreck. The
trackman removed the obstruction
and then arrested his man. 1t is
now thought that wreck at the
same place a few weeks ago was
caused by tampering with the rails.
Capital punishment should be the
penalty for the offense.

agricultural purposes without water.
The states have rightly assumed
control of all the streams and other
sources Of supply within their bor-
ders, but the government owns the
land. The impracticability of the
general government placing water
on these lands is now generally
conceded. Private enterprise is

hand, the friends of Mr.. Blaine
insist he must write no letter of any
descriptions; that he does not owe
either the president or the country

presidential nomination of the
party, but that every consideration

nomination of Mr.. Blaine, he must
be in position unlike that which
he occupied in 1888 to accept the
party leadership and make the
race. The arguments of the Blaine
people as at present presented are
both earnest and aggressive. They
assert boldly the president has
made no impression on the country
which would serve the party as a
rail- wing cry in 1892, and that his
denomination therefore would be
blunder.
The gigantic scheme of tunnel
ing the Rocky mountains is now in
progress. A tunnel is already
driven 1900 feet on the east side
into Kelso mountain, and 1,4OO
feet on the west side. The two
main objects Of the enterprise are to
obtain a direct rail road route from
Denver to Salt Lake city, which
will shorten the distance. it is said
$50 miles, and to strike the rich
veins which are supposed to run in
vertical lines through the noun
tains.
There are more than $50 Of these
veins, which will be reached at
1000 to 4, 44O feet below the tops
Of the mountains. The length of
the proposed tunnel is to be rs, 200
feet. 1t is supposed that it will be
a big paying object.

Clovelaud's Nerve.

In a recent interview in Boston,
Mr.. Ingalls, reported an incident of
Mr.. Cleveland's ina uguration which
is new, he said:
II remember very we'll his en-
trance into the senate on inaugural
ton day. He seemed to be utterly
oblivious of the fact that the eyes
of the leading men of this and
other countries we're upon him.
"There were the senators, repre-.
sentatives, ambassadors and min
listers from foreign nations. The
judges all curious to see the man
of whom so much had been said,
and who had only been in
Washington once before the day he
came to be inaugurated.
''If it was the most ordinary
gathering Cleveland could not be
less concerned. But this in the
senate chamber did not attract SO
much attention a. his exhibition
before the immense mass of people
in front of the capital. Lincoln,
Grant, Hays, Garfield and Harri-
son, all read their inaugurals-
Cleveland spoke his.
ut showed how thoroughly he
had his intellect disciplined.
'The,e before $4,000 people,
where the slightest mistake would
be held up to the country, with
piece Of paper no larger than a
visiting card to guide him he spoke
to the world.
ut was the most remarkable ex.
hibition of nerve and control ever
given by president on his inaug-
uration day."
The utterance of Ex-Governor
Foraker, Of Ohio, in the late con-
vention of the National Republican
League, that "Blafne has given US
a magnificent administration"
while undoubtedly intended to be-
little Harrison and exalt Blaine
has resulted in exactly the con-
trary so far as the former is con-
cerned. Since this incident Presi-
dent Harrison is more favorably

American spirit of fair play which
is always aroused at such under

AS nearly as can be judged from
glancing at the acres OF fulsome lack
eyism in the daily press Of this city,
the President has been surrounded.
from the moment he entered the
State, by railroad magnates, railroad
lacqueys, railroad lawyers, and rail-
road politicians. He has not, SEEM
ingly, been permitted, by these his
guardians, to interchange one SEN
tence with any man or woman, how
ever prominent Or eminent, who is
not completely subservient to the
dominant power Of this State. He
has met the associations OF bankers.
stock gamblers, etc., and has passed
days and evenings with Stamford
and Croker; but representatives of
the Farmers Alliance and Federated
Trades are not ''in it," even a little
bit. Everything he sees must beseen
through the eyes of the railroad mon
opoly. He may have no special pol
itical purpose in his visit to the
Coast, but if he has, that purpose
will not be furthered by the course
taken in Theoretically sealing him up
from access to the producing classes.

The assault of the daily papers on
the farmers granaries has already
begun. From two of them we find
that the farmers of the Northwest
are about to harvest the most won
derful-"u unprecedented" is the word
used-crops the northwest has ever
known. They do not say, ''prob.
ably" large crop-but "they will
have a crop unprecedented, etc" and
"this year will see the largest wheat
weld ever known in the northwest,
ETC."
This is the engine used to knock
down the prices on the new crop.
The gamblers have had their $1.15 a
bushel off from a farmers 75c. a
bushel, and now they propose to get
down to 75c. again in time for the
new crop.
Yesterday, Monday, the Pioneer
said there was plenty of moisture in
most of the state-a lie as rank as
any sin of Annanias-and more effec-
tive for evil.
Who knows anything about the
wheat crop OF the nation as yet? The
pretense OF knowledge is knavery.

Many of our readers wish us to
publish the market reports. We
would do so if we could with any de-
gree of success. To have reports OF
our own would cost too much when
they would only reach the reader
three or four days after. To take
from the daily newspapers adds an
other SO hours. We close the forms
Wednesdays at noon-and send to
press. The large issue is off by
Thursday noon, and mailed before
night. But it is Saturday usually be-
fore the paper gets into the hands OF
the subscribers and Sunday when
read. By that time every quotation
is useless, and the labor wasted. The
country papers get to their readers
much sooner and could furnish better
reports.

Liberty Banner:

Liberty Banner:
The debt statement for March
shows a total cash reserve in the
treasury for all purposes OF 1884,
Al, 1866, or almost one-half OF the
total volume OF money of the coun-
try. Will somebody inform us what
benefit is that $7O0,OOO,OOO to the
American people? 1t is in no sense
a part of the circulating medium OF
the country, and yet it is so consid-
cred. We often hear Internal fools
prating about our circulating
medium amounting to $22 per capita
when the actual fact is not more than
one fourth of that sum is in use
among the people. Our total volume
OF money-all issues, gold, silver,
nickle, copper, greenbacks, gold and
silver certificates, and national bank
notes, in round numbers, aggregate
81 OO,OOO,OOO. OF this sum $500
100000, lie buried in the vaults OF
the treasury, to which may be added
the bank reserves, saying nothing OF
millions hid away and shrinking
from investment owing to a lack Of
confidence, and it is safe to say that
more than one-half of our volume OF
currency is Of no more value as a
circulating medium than the crude
ores in the mountains. In the face
OF these facts the inquiry is constant
ly heard on every hand, why is
money so scarce?" In 1866 with a
population OF 81, 100000 we had in
actual circulation among the people
$2,OOO,OOO,OOO or a fraction over
$50 per capita. To-day we have a
population OF 65,OOO,O0O, almost
double the population of 1866, and
our total volume of currency-about
81, $780, OO,OOO-one-fourthless than
in '66, or $22 per capita, if all was
in circulation, but with more than
half boarded as reserves and millions
hid away, we have lesss than $S per
capita. Yet we hear the constant
cry, "Why is money so scarce?"
God help the American people to
fully realize how Internally ignorant
and stupid they are!

The article from Wisconsin Village
Merchant is deep, but it is worthy OF
study. By the difference in Eek

other nations get silver settlements

deprecated value of silver which they
have purposely produced. Then their
silver buys, to it's full face value, the
crop for shipment-but is "appreciat-
