MEADvILLE, Pa, Feb. 19.-In the Delana-
ter trial the court decided there was not
sufficient evidence showing that G. b. and

go to the jury, the court reserving the
right to render decision on the points
raised by counsel for the defense, that the
court take the case from the jury and
decide for the defendants upon insufficient
evidence.

TOO MUCH WHEAT RAISED.

"The conditions which have at last over
whelmned cotton growers now confront the
wheat growers"
This sentence is from the annual report Of
Secretary Of Agriculture Rusk, submitted to
the President Saturday Hence the Ameri-
can farmer must reduce the wheat acreage
and 50 bring production down 10 the normal
/ demand, - is the conclusion reached by the
Secretary.
We sent abroad last year 500, ,Oo0. GOO more
Of products than were imported, and Of
tbese 50 per cent were agricultural. There
is an increase Of 90. 200. coo pounds Of pork
! to countries which formerly excluded it, and
! so OO0,0 900 increase in the exports Of live
cattle.
This is particularly gratifying as the regu-
lations enforced for the prevention Of Texas
fever have saved to the cattle raisers more
than three TINES the amount expended in
running the department. He declares that
pleuro pneumonia does not exist in this
country notwithstanding the reports Of Lon
don newspapers.
He compares prices for September, 1892
with those Of September, 1890, the year be
fore pork inspection was adopted, and shows
an increase Of 50 cents per 100 pound. in
favor OF this year, an average Of 8 psr head
on every hog sold.
he also wants the United States to raise
its own raw silk, instead Of sending s25,-
eco, 600 a year abroad for ths raw material
aud be thinks We might also save 81, ,OO0,-
/ 000 q yesr which we now spend on imported
fbres. He also expresses the hope that our
Indian corn will be introduced into Ger
many 10 such an extent as to make il s
most valuable export.
Secretary RGsk throws cold water on the
rain makers. The experiments are bel ne
loyalty made as Congress directed, but the
facts in bis possession do not justify The an
ticpstion formed by the believers in this
method Of artificial rain making

sympathy and broad intelligence with which

administration, needed the needs Of agri-

1850 and 1898.

From the New York Msil and Express
The frst session Of the Democratic
Congress which followed the much-de-
nounced billion-dollar Republican Con-
gress spent 81. .oOO, 600 more than its Re
publican predecessor spent at its hrst
session, and now the Democratic papers
are howling about deficit in the Treas
ury.
Bot who is responsible for this alleged
deficit? What is its oHginl Without
the public debt and the pension pay
ments there could be no deficit, and for
both Of these the Democratic party Is
solely responsible. When IT went out Of
power With Buchanan in 1861 what did
! it leave to the Republican party which
came in? Not only deficit in the Trea-
sury, but also public credit so impaired
that government loan could be negotis-
ted only by the payment Of l2 per cent
interest.
It left the country embroiled in a war
brought on by Democratic secessionists
who now constitute the Solid South. II
left US the sinful blight Of slavery. II
left us war, devastation and ruin and an
appalling loss Of human life. The pen
sion fund resulted and an enormou:
public debt, every dollar Of which should
have been paid by the secessionis;s Of
the South, but most Of which is burden
upon the commercial and industrial in
terests Of the North. The tariff tax is as
nothing compared with the tax Demo
cratic secession levied upon the people
Of this country.
How does the Republican party 20 out
Of power? With the credit of this gov
ernment the best in the world with gov
ernmen. bonds negotiable att percent
with slavery wiped out; secession and
notification eyerIastinoly killed, and tho
Star Spangled Banner respected at home
and abroad.
The Republican party came into pow
er thirty-two years ago on the ruins Of 1
government which the Democratic party
had sought to destroy. 1t leaves th'
government strong, the nation unified
and the people wonderfully blessed and
! prosperOus.

The New York Tribune issues its prospect
US for 1898, with undiminished confidence
in the final triumph of Republican principle
A newspaper, even greater than it was in
Horace Greeley's time, The Tribune will
strike sturdier blows than ever for the econ
omical and financial policies, which have
always seemed to the Republican party the
best for the country a; large. That clean,
high minded and sterling paper occupies
field entirely its own. It's Weekly and Semi
Weekly editions are especially edited for the
country st large, and circulate in every nook
sad corner of the United States. The Tribune
is not controlled by Wall Street 1t is a
frank, fearless, aggressive fighter, conceding
that which is cOmmendable in opponents,
but demanding that the Republican side be
heard, aud the truth be spoken in all discus
sions. The character Of The Tri5u.e as a
champion, was well exemplified by it's In.
stant acceptance of the challenge of the ".
Y. World last winter, to Tariff Debate from
which debate however. The World instantly
withdrew, when The TFibBae stipulated that
both parties should speak the truth New
features are promised for the coming year,
and Roswell q. Horr will continue to write
for the paper. The Tribune made splendid
campaign this past year. IL was al work
iOng before the nominations we're made or
the National and State Committees orgaui-
I'D, and its magnificent work is seen in the
results in the localities in which it was e,-
pecially circulated. The Tribune and Mr..
Reid's services 10 the Farmers. aided directly
TO hold certain Republican States and cour-
ties, in the Republican column. Where
The Tribune was not circulated there was
Republican loss. The Tri5ulss motto is
truth, and it presents the Republican view
with remarkable force and courage. It is
one Of the few metropolitan newspapers,
whose decency and cleanliness make it safe
TO admit into family. The Tribune con-
tinues its war stories and soldiers gossip,
and promises brilliant and attractive new
features for 1898. Every Republican should
have The Tribune. An illustrated Premium
catalogue and specimen copies are ssni free

10 few days the report Of General Raum
will be completed and a full statement Of
the condition Of the Pension 0fice will be
presented. During the last year the appro-
priations for pensions were larger than for
any previous year. In fact, ever since the
passage ofthe Disability bin, there has been
rapid .inerease in the amount needed TO
pay the pensions. For the year ls90-9I the
total appropriation on account OF pensions
was about sl25. 600 600. Last year there wa.
an increase to st44. 600 .OOO But as General
Raum will state in his report this amount
fell short ofthe actnAl demands BY about
$4,000 900, so Congress will be asked to
make an appropriation ofabout sls0, 600 900
for the coming fiscal year, about SIS 600 90

that amount over the actual expenditures Of
