The G. A. R. are opposed to the proposed
"Blue and Gray exhibit at the Worlds Fair
at Chicago at which was to be exhibited
Federal and Confederate relics of the war.
The plan included pavilion, in which ex-
soldiers North and South were to bunk dur
ing the Fair. All relics of the war ought to
be destroyed, but this is not the ground upon
which the Department of the Potomac OBJ
jected. They concluded that they were righi
and the Confederates wrOng, hence they
could not affiliate If this is the feeling,
every Southern State ought 10 decline to have
anything to do with the Fair-neither making
exhibits nor attending.

Tax Everything.

There is a growing feeling in some of the
counties of this state for the taxation of all
property, including churches, charitable in
etitntions, &C., and an issue will be made on
this question at no very distant day. There
can be no question that there is entirely too
much property in this state which escapes
taxation in one way or another, and if all
we're made to bear their equal proportion the
burden would be greatly lightened. The issue
will be made, and it is time for the people to
commence thinking abolt i.

may have forgotten the theft of the Presidency
in 1876, but the people have not. Most all

The Crop Outlook.

The weekly weather crop bulletin
issued by the signal office on the 3oth,
says:
Showers in the spring wheat region OF
the two Dakotas and Minnesota during
the last week have been light, not well
distributed and In some regions damage
has resulted from drought aud frosts, but
crops are doing fairly well and will b.
greatly benefited by rains In that section
to-day and tomorrow.
In the states OF the Missouri valley tho
weather was generally favorable for small
grains, but 1t was too cold for corn. Tho
drought In northeast Nebraska has been
helped by generous rains. In Kansas, all
crops were improved ind especially wheat
which is well headed.
Prospects are reported us generally good
In Iowa and Missouri; frost did little
damage; In some sections corn is being
rcplanted, owing TO damage By cut worms.
and In small areas wheat was plowcd
under, on account OF Injury By nessian ily.
In Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana and
Illinois rain was was very liRht and badly
distributed and the cool weather retarded
growth. The effect OF the week was gen
orally Injurious; many farmers In Illinois
arc replanting corn on account OF lis
injury from insects; grasses aud grain
dying In Wisconsin on this account, and
some fruit injured by irosts In Michigan.
