Crop Conditions.

WASHINGTON, April 1S.--The weather
crop bulletin says: Seeding has been
interrupted somewhat in the spring
wheat regions of Dakota and Minnesota.
but the ground is reported in excellent
condition. The crop conditions are
greatly improved in Ohio and the Mis-
sissippi valley. Continued rains de-
layed work in Nebraska and Missouri.
where the crops are from two to four
weeks late. The conditions are in
proved in Michigan and Wisconsin, al
though the crops are late, owing to ex-
cessive rains. In Iowa 80 per cent. of
the small grain has been seeded. and in
Kansas rain has greatly benefited all
crops.
On the North Pacific coastthe weather
was favorable. Fall wheat is reported
growing rapidly; spring wheat is up,
and fruit in full blossom.
In the Sacramento valley warm sun
shiny weather is much needed. Grain
has been injured in some sections by the
Hessian fly. Other crops are excellent.
In the Sonoma valley Bartlett pears
may be injured by blight, unless sun
shine and wind prevent. In the San
Joaquin valley grain prospects are great
ly improved; all crops are backward on
account of cool, cloudy weather, but the
outlook generally is good. In Southern
California cool, cloudy weather is un-
favorable for fruit. but rain has benefited
grain and hay.

finally passed in review before the pres
ident. The school children threw flow
ers at the presidents feet as they
passed, and built small-sized Hill in
front of the stand.
After the review the president and
party were entertained at supper at the
Beach hotel, during which the presi-
dent was serenaded by band. The
party then retired to the balcony,
where, in the presence of an immense
throng of people. the president was for
mally welcomed to the gulf by General
Waul, on behalf of the mayor, who,
though present, was too i'll to speak
The president returned his thanks in q
feeling speech. Addresses were also
made by Governor Hogg and Secretary
Rusk. A public reception followed, and
a fine display of fireworks ended the

Two kilograms were received yester-
day from the superintendent of the
Orange carnival in Chicago. Both
stated the condition of Supervisor ]. w.
Cook was much improved. Other mem
bers OF the party who were i'll are better.
The telegram received in the afternoon
stated that the building was jammed
full with an enormous crowd. This
probably indicates that the rain which
has come down continuously since the
opening night has abated.
A carload of flowers is demanded by
the management in Chicago to allow the
show to run few days longer to make
up the time lost in the continuous rain.
The great need is of callas and of flowers
which will carry in good condition to
Chicago. Orange blossoms are especially
in demand. Three men with wagons
will be started out on Monday. All who
have flowers to send are requested to
put their address on postal card and
mail it to the chamber of commerce.
The car must be packed by Tuesday
noon. Pasadena's car of 10000 lilies,
which was recently dispatched from
that city, created great furore at the
opening of the show.
The affairs of the chamber OF COM
merce are beginning to slowly improve.
Ten new members have been secured,
and 800 has been subscribed toward
the payment of the debt. The donors
were as follows: Los Angeles County
bank, 500; Southern California National
bank, $40; Germain Fruit company,
$40; d. Freeman, $40; City bank, $40,
and National Bank of California, $40.
During the coming week the delinquent
list will be given close inspection, and
the list of members will be considerably
pruned down by the board of directors.
Notices have been sent out by the
acting secretary to the fruit growers
that the permanent exhibit is very
much in need OF fresh fruit.

wEsTERNER,s OPINIONS.
A Seattle Statesman Submits to an In
terview in Chicago. ~

"A Seattio statesman submits TO an III
terview in Chicago.
CHICAGO, April 1S.--W. f. Forrest, of
Seattle, WASH, a delegate to the Kansas
City commercial congress, arrived here
today. Speaking of the congress, he said
he did not think any good would come
from it directly, but it will set the peo-
pie to thinking, and in that way ulti-
mately, perhaps, be of some benefit.
While most OF the Pacific coast would
like free coinage of American
silver, they want a protective
duty ON it to keep out foreign
product, at least until England agrees
to bimetallic standard. They don't
believe the passage of such law will
prove panacea for the farmers. The
trouble with the farmers is that they
think they are pretty badly off, and not
knowing exactly what they need for re-
lief, clutch at the free-silver idea, and
free trade, too, but they won't get
either.
Speaking of the national political
feeling of his state, Senator Forrest be-
lieved it would go Republican in 1892,
and that Blaine was the choice. The
Democrats OF the state want Cleveland,
and the latter's stand on silver would
not help him there.

NOTES.
Superintendent j. A. Muir, of the
Southern Pacific, is in the Yosemite.
Passenger traffic west-bound is not as
large as it was some weeks ago.
An assessment has been levied on the
stock of the Rapid Transit company,
bringing it all to a paid up standard.
Somewhere about 100000 it is expected
will be realized from this, which is to
be used in paying off liabilities. 1t is
probable that another assessment will
follow to raise means for changing the
gauge.

"There was an extremely social ses-
sion last night both before and behind
the footlights, the house being the
ldTScbt VI tHc ccdSOu, duu thc pay OhC
of the most entertaining yet seen here.
Some extremely comical business was
introduced, and the characters we'll sus-

of the Grand Star orchestra"
CLEvELAND's PET SHOW.
Arrangements have been completed for
appearance of Cleveland's Consolidated
minstrels at the Grand opera house

COUNTY PRINTING.
Each officer May Select His Own Printer
Under the New Law.

Under the New Law.
MARYsvILLE, April 1S.-Judge Davis
rendered an important decision today
relative to the county printing. He
decided that the county government
act has superseded and repealed section
4047 of the Political Code, which en-
powered boards of supervisors to con-
tract for county printing, and that now
under the county government act, after
the supervisors have fixed the price for
printing, each county officer may pro-
cure such printing as his office by law
requires, from any person he may elect
to deal with, subject to the restriction
that such work shall be legal charge
against the county.
