The Nicaragua Canal.

Senator Dolph, speaking in the senate
yesterday OH the Nicaragua canal, gave
three conclusive reasons why the gov
eminent should back the enterprise.
First, To insure tho speedy .construc-
ton OF the work. Second, TO control
the canal. Third, To insure capitalism
ton at actual cost.
Sooner or later tho Atlantic and the
Pacific will be connected by Il canal.
The Nicaragua route is tho best OF all.
When the connection is made it should
be SC completely under the control OF
the United States that in case OF war no
enemy could Use it except by first cap
turing it.
1t will shorten greatly tho sea dis
lance between our Atlantic and our
Pacific ports, and for this reason its
completion should not be unnecessarily
delayed for q day. BY reason OF short
ening the distance it will cheaper
freights. The government runs no risk,
for the Nicaragua canal will pay better
than the Suez canal, which returns %
per cent on the Investment.
The lower the capitalization the
cheaper the tolls can be made, and low
tolls arc in the interest OF tho consum-
crs OF products that will be transported
by that route.

A Great Day in the Empire State.

chN ~ w AsIilIlC ottitCs
The returns from the charter elections
in the state OF New York show plainly
the back-action OF the Hill machine.
The large and general Republican gains,
placing Republicans in control where
Democrats were at the helm, voice the
intense disgust OF The people. In e.
mira. Hills own home, not q Democrat
was elected.
The rebuke is pronounced, singing,
prophetic of what is in store ior Hill or
any man who may represent him in the
next election. The drive is not at Hill
alone, but as vel, ut the legislature,
which is doing its best to out-Tweed
Tweed in his palmiest days.
1t is the warning cry OF the people
that they will not be insulted and plum.

ballot. 1t is the kind OF protest that
amounts'to o than boiling conven,

Hin or His Nominee in New York.


This, from the New York Ercning Post,
will be entertaining and instructive to
Hill and the men who are following his
leadership:
We have been unable to hear OF any Indcpen-
dent, Or Mugwnmp. or lnke-warm or discOiI-
tented Republican In this or any state who
would under any circumstances support Hill or
lIills nOninGe Tor the Presidency. Il would
hardly be possible fUs the Republicans 10 nomi.
nate u candidate, not II notorious thief, who
would not, SO fur aS Ou- observation has gone,
receive their support In preference 10 Hill or
Uills nominee. There ought to be no mistake
on this point. The notion that the Democrats
coull elect Hill without tho support OF these
three classes above mentioned. we look on ms Il
chimcra Of the most absurd kind. They will,
under lIills candidacy or guidance. be beaten
rs thoroughly us IN lS7., md Mr.. Cleveland will
probably remain the one President they Will
elect or have elected in !ity ycArs.
Omit the three classes spoken OF by
tho Ereiing Post and a Democratic nomi-
nee has about as much chance OF carry
Ing New York as an elephant has OF
flying across the Atlantic ocean. With
out New York nc Democratic President
call be elected this year.

State of the Crops.

Colonel Thomas Whitehead, Commif-
sioner of Ayr culture of Virginia, has
Just issued a magnificent midsummer
report Of the condition Of the crops Of
the State. We have only room to give
that part relating to the Valley;
In tie Valley the average of the
crops peculiar to this section is good.
The acreage is little less than last year,
bit the IT spect is better.
The fruit crop in the Valley was not as
much damaged as in the other sections.
Some counties report tolerablr good
prospect for fruit.
Labor in this section is not reported rs
scarce as in the other parts of Virginia,
but the majority of the counties report
good labor to be difficult to obtain.
From our information the crops Of
wheat, corn and ioba,co IN tie State at
Large are equal in prospect to any in the
State for several years.
The first cutting Of hay is short.
Timothy and herds-grass are better than
clover and the earlier grasses. Judging
by past years, the fall crop of hay from
annual grasses and the aftermath Of the
hay corp are good and will give us an
average crop for the year.
Cotton is decreasing in Mca. although
we have a large number Of counties that
could cultivate cotton proftably.
While Virginia has the finest peanut
lands in the United States, the low price
OF this crop has decreased the acreage in
the State.
Irish and sweet potatoes are full crops
as far as present production and prospect
give evidence Both are becoming
large and important crops in certain
sections of this State.
Melons, growing out Of the increased
facilities for marketing trucks, are be-
coming important and in view Of the
short fruit crop this year will prove
remuneratiye.

Page Courier Since the grasshOpper
has to all appearances come to stay, any
information concerning his character and
habis aud the best way to avoid his dep
relations must necessarily be Of great IL
terest to our farming community. Out
side of his positive destruction of growing
crops OF wheat, grass, etc, he has cansed
great inconvenience to our farmers by
cutting the binding Irvine with which
their reapers tie their wheat shelves
Mr.. Martin Y. Gander, one OF our largest
aud most successful farmers, tol rs the
other day that this may be entirely avoid
ed by saturating the Irvine in coal oil
before using it, Mr. Gander has tried
this, and states that it is a sure preventive
and limo way Interferes with the proper
