Too many mouths in Europe to feed for this years growth of cereals. Ger many is deeply concerned her short age of wheat and rye is estimated at many millions of bushels, but notwith- standing the hungry outlook the Ame. rican hog, which puts fat upon the ribs of consumers, Is still regarded by the tutonic government with aversion. The probabilities that before many months hog and hominy will become a favored national dish, iu Emperor Will Hams domains. According to latest London reports how 10 obtain the staff of life is the all-absorbing question iu Germany. On the 22d, the cabinet was discussing the question, what to do III the premises. 4 Berlin dispatch says There is 10 abatement oi the excitement arising from agitation in re- gard 10 duties on grain imported into Germany. Gloomy reports as to the prospects of harvest in the provinces continue to be received. Everything confirms the belief that the winter of 9l-92 will be one of the worst, so far as food is concerned, on record. Op- position to retaining the duties gains strength day by day National Liber- als, and even many Conservative jour nals, are making unceasing appeals to the Government to make some reduc- ton in grain duties, but Chancellor Von Caprivi is obdurate. Some con. servative organizations propose that the Government import wheat and sell it at fixed prices. ASt. Petersburg dispatch of the 22d Announces that the Govern ment will confscate all grain intended for export which contains more than s per cent of rye.

If the Treasury is to pay the OK penscs of sending back home all the Chinamen who smuqgie themselves into this country in violation of its laws the item is likely to be large one. The Coconino Sun says that the platform of the Ohio Third Party offers by analogy an excellent means of paying the bill. If we are to have government pawn broking and government saloon-keep- ing, why not have Federal laundry and let the surreptitious Chinaman work out the amount of his passage therein?

The charge is made, signed by fifty reputable citizens of Midland. Texas, that the reports sent to the press al. leging the success of the Dyrenforth rain-p producing experiments, are en- tirely false, One of Gen. Dyrenforth's s assistants is charged with sending out the faked dispatches, and the more serious allegation is made that the ex- perimenters manipulate their apparatus only when the conditions of the atmos- phere gre favorable, and indicate an approach of rain. The section of coun- try where the experiments nrc carried on has not been suffering greatly from drouth, and the tecent rainfall was general, except that it did not fall on much of the Morris ranch and was heavier away from the location of the experimenters. Fortunately, tho ap- propriation is almost exhausted, and the farce will soon end.

The continued depression of the cop per market suggests the query, what would have become of the industry had not the Anaconda suspended produc- tion and Chih charters been interrupt cd by the war? Notwithstanding these curtailments the production of copper has been more than ample to supply the worlds demand, and higher prices for the metal, except for limited periods, can hardly be expected The tendency year by year is towards an increased production. Undoubtedly, the low prices prevailing are partially due to the dullRess in electrical mauu- featuring in this country, and the de- pression of business generally, in the East. These conditions may be reme- died by the impetus that will undoubt- ediy be given to trade by the moving of our immense crops of grain and cot ton, and an active export trade. High CT prices for copper during the coming fall and winter months are, therefore, probable.

THE SCIENCE or RAIN BARKING

The artificial production of rain is not a new science "In Scott's Dis covery," published in 1854, we read of sorcerers and witches to whose com mand the clements were subservient. They produced rain, hail, tempests, thunder and lightning at their pleasure by casting flint-stone over the left shoulder towards the west. or hurled n little sea sand up into the element or wetted broom sprig in water and sprinkled the same in the air. Other methods employed were digging pit and putting water therein, which was stirred about with the finger; boiling hog's bristles; laying sticks across upon bank where never drop of water is; burying sage until it rotted.
 The modern alchemists might study the science of their early predecessors with profit, for the attempts to shoot the rain, at Government expense, in Texas, have thus far ignominiously failed. Our scientists are evidently on the wrong tack, for we read in Brands Popular Antiquities that when it thun- dered the Tracians took their bows and arrows and shot upwards, imagining thereby to drive the storm away.
 The ancient methods had very im- portant advantage over the modern in thai when one charm failed there were others innumerable in, reserve, and the wizard was certainly out of luck if rain failed to come before the long list of incantations was exhausted. However. It Is some recompense to know that al. though Gen. Dyrenforth and his assis- tants are not very successful in wiring ing water from the skies, vet they are enjoying continual Fourth of July celebration shooting dynamite. putting up balloons and flying kites. Yes. the children are having "n real nice time.

The political horoscope gives little encouragement of the success of either Cleveland or Hill in the canvass for the Democratic nomination for the Presi- dency. Recent events in New York State, where tho Democratic primaries have very generally resulted in open warfare between the Hill and Cleye- land factions, preclude the hope of either being able to carry the State in the event of their nomination for the Presidency, and es the electoral vote of New York is of vital importance to the Democracy, the nominating con vention will of necessity have to look to some other State for their standard bearer in 1899.
 Among those mentioned by the Democracy for the Presidency there is one who stands conspicuous as an available and desirable candidate. not a politician, yet never defeated for an office, and whose reputation is immac- nlate-that man is Governor Pattison of Pennsylvania. At the present stage of the game he looks like the probable nominee of his party, and he is be. lieved to be the only man who could give Blaine close call. Gov. Patti son is yet in the prime of life, incor- ruptable, of fine address, and possesses the distinction of having twice carried the great Republican city of Philadel- phia, and twice carried the greatest Republican State.
