Ohio Prisoners Parole Board Censured By
the Investigating Committee.
xpEcTAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsP ArcH.i
COLUMBUS, April 10-The Penitentiary
Investigating Committee reported to the
Legislature to-day. With reference to the
parole law they find that the board and its
predecessor have been Influenced in the
granting of paroles by persons outside of the
penitentiary and not entirely upon the con-
duct and record of the prisoner, and by so
doing they have assumed the powers of the
Board of Pardons.
They further find that during the present
administration there have been three occa-
sions of executions for capital offenses; that
the number of persons admitted were greatly
in excess of authority of law and that the
execution room was crowded with disorderly
persons, some of whom were intoxicated.
The impropriety of permitting such scenes
is censured in strong terms.

THE FUTURE OF WHEAT.

A writer in the London Standard on
Home and Foreign Agriculture, OF
date of April 80, sides with and quotes
C. Wood Davis epitome. Some people
talk of ''Mr. Davis theory" He does
not claim any theory but simply presents
| facts, leaving theories to agricultural
bureaus and to the doctored statistics OF
departments. Unquestionably the IN
| crease of the worlds population Is now
not only in excess of crop increase, but
the former increase is being accelerated.
1t is not generally known, for instance,
that last year, 1890. the world raised the
largest crop of breadstuffs ever produced
since history began, and yet the surplus,
| which has been carried for years, IS
steadily disappearing. As for the crltl-
cisn made that with the prices predict
ed by Mr.. Davis-and they were predict
ed when corn was selling at II cents and
wheat at 40 cents-more thorough cult
walton would be resorted to in America
thereby increasing vastly the product OF
the present acreage, the reply IS made
that for a whole decade farmers have
been pinched with debt and driven for
money and that therefore it is but reas-
enable to suppose that they have made
their farm produce all that they would
probably under any circumstances. But
to the London Standards editorial. We
quote its last paragraph as follows:
''In connection with the subject just
referred to (the advance in the price OF
English wheat it is worth while 10 no.
tice cleverly compiled ''epltome OF the
statistical position III relation 10 the pro-
duction and consumption OF wheat IN
the world, which Is being circulated
among members of the gram trade IN
the United States. 1t was prepared by
Mr.. C. Wood Davis, an American agri-
culturist and statistician, whose writings
have attracted great deal OF attention
in this country as well as
his own. In dealing with the
total wheat production, popula-
ton and consumption of the world,
there is necessarily good deal OF bold
guessing; but an examination OF some
of Mr. Davis figures disposes us to con-
cIude that he has moderated rather than
overrated the strength of the position
which he takes up. One OF the most in-
portant conclusions which he cites
figures to prove is that during the ten
years ending with 1890 the increase OF
| the worlds wheat acreage indicates an
addition of only 62, 600, 900 bushels to the
annual wheat supply, while the area
under rye in Europe has been reduced,
the bread eating populations of European
blood have increased by 42,000,OOO, re-
quiring increments of more than no.
! 0OO. 900 bushels of wheat and 100000 600
bushels of rye. If it be asked why, under
such circumstances, there has not been
an actual scarcity before the present
time, the answer is that, in the previous
decade, the addition to the world s
| wheat area was enormous, and that the
production at the beginning of the last
| decade was excessive, so that with
generally good harvests during the
:'eiehtes" the advance of consumption
upon production has been slow in reach
ing a climax"

The case OF Treasurer holland, Of Mis-
souri, has an almost exact counterpart IN
the case of Treasurer MorehouSe, of the
Baptist Home Mission society, except
that the latter did not lose any cash by
the irregularity of its treasurer. He adj
mits that he used the funds of the society
for other than legitimate purposes of the
society-to accommodate friends III dis
tress--but that the amounts were made
good to the society. Morehouse was for
given and reinstated in fraternal rela-
ii ms and into his Office. holland was
likewise forgiven. in sentiment by his
political associates, and practically so by
the jury that tried his case. Forgive
ness is divine attribute, but it does not
extend to the unrepentant transgreSsor,
and it would seem 10 be something of a
test of that attribute 10 apply 1t TO one
whose penitence comes only when the

Warned Aeainst Unripe Fruit.

' :
From the New York Sun
This is a season of the year in which 1t
is well to be on guard against unrlpe
fruit or over-ripe or partially decayed
fruits. 1t is not good for the haalth to
consume these fruits, and III many cases
it is very bad for the health, There are
tropical and seni-tropicai products IN
the markets, including pineappes, ba-
nanas and cocoanuts. that are not agree
able when closely inspected. There are
also domestic fruit products of the same
kind to be seen. 1t IS better for people
to eschew than 10 chew them. At the
same time this Is q season Of the year IN
which sound and tip-,op fruit, domestic
and foreign, are especially wholesome
and advantageous 10 nearly all consum-
ers. including bows and girls.
