YIELD OF COTTON.

The best authorities now think that
the number of bales for the season will
not be over 6 900 600. Last year 800,
900 bales were used, leaving a surplus
of probably 500, 600 bales. If this crop
is a million and a half short, the 4lf
million bales surplus will fall a million
bales short of supplying the demand.
From g in September, the price has
gone up to a and is steadily rising,
The shortage may be attributed to
decrease in acreage, damage by early
frosts in the Mississippi Valley and
other causes apparent in different
localities. 1t is a great pity that the
price remained low until so many had
sold the bulk of their crop.

We have been examining the report
of the Secretary of Agriculture for
facts. Here are some facts which we
want the overprOductiOnists to salt
down for future reference:
In 1867 there was SIS bushels Of
wheat per capita raised in the United
States. and the average price, was 81.
90 1 Q per bushel. In 1888 there was
5 03 bushels of .whPat per capita raised
in the United States, and the price was
only 81 Is cents per bushel Will
some e o p fellow tell us why the
farmers got 81 IL less per bushel for
his wheat in 1888 han he did in 1862.
when there was less wheat in proper

there was in 1867?

SOMETHING NOT NEEDED.

Press dispatches last week stated
that a new organization called the
Industrial Legion of the United
States" is the next thing on the pro
gramme. All persons who believe re
form is needed are invited TO Join, re
CARELESS of ~avocation. The organiza-
ton is not entirely secret, but to some
extent it may be SO considered. 1t is
probably something like the Grand
Army of the Republic" or ''Tammany
Hail" neither of which organizations
are calculated to benefit the country.
We are in favor of fraternal secret
orders. They have done much good.
Any organization that has educational
nd financial advantages may be en-
couraged. However, political organi
cations other than parties, either open
or secret, are not needed The variOus
labor and farmers organizations are
al tina is needed along that line. If
the people push these organizations
n do 1T right, there is no room for
announcer organization, either political
OF n~on-political. We think the farm
ers OF this country will do we'll to let
all new organizations take care OF
themselves.

THE NATIONAL GRANGE.
Twenty-Five Out of the T~hirty-four Grange
States Represented.

The National Grange, Patrons of
Husbandry, assembled in the State
House, Concord, New Hampshire, in
it's twenty-sixth annual session We'd
nesday forenoon. J. H Brigham, of
Ohio, presided. Twenty-Five out of
thirty four Grange States were repre-
sented at the first roll call.
Master J. Fl. Brigham delivered the
annual address. He said that the
financial standing of the National
Grange is good, and that reports from
State Oranges show increasing numeri-
cal strength and activity. The speaker
reviewed the result of the recent cleo
ton and said: "All our Order will ask
of the new administration is that the
same consideration given to other in
terests be accorded TO agriculture. If
the producer on the farm must com

OUR GREAT DANGER.

On Sunday, Nov Oh, Rev. Dewitt
Talmage preached a powerful sermon
on the danger of vote buying and sec
tlonal animosity. We will publish the
sermon when we find room, but make
the following extracts which will pre-
pare our readers for it when published
You see. my friends, it is no I'M
usual thing for a government TO perish,
and in the same neurology of dead Ia.
tiOus and in the same graveyard of ex
pired governments will go the United
States of America unless there be some
potent voice to clll a halt, and Unless
God in hiI mercy interferes, and
through a purified ballot box and a
widespread public Christian sentiment
the catastrophe be averted This ma
ton is about to 20 the ballot box to
exercise the right of suffrage, and
propose to set before you the evils that
threaten to DESTROY the American G. "

institutions, ana If God Will help me |
will show you before | get through the
mode IN which each and eve ry one may
do something to arrest that appalling
calamity. And | shall pillow 10 the
whole field.
The first evil that threatens the
annihilaUiOn of our American insti u
tiOns Is the fact that political bribery,
which once was considered a crime,
has by many come to be considered a
tOlerable virtue. There Is a legitimate
use of money in elections, IN the print
ing of political tracts, and in the hiring
of public halls. and IN the obtaining Of
campaign OratOry, but Is there any
hOmunculus who suppOses that this
vast amount of money now being
raised by the political parties is going
in a legitimate direction? The vast
majority of it viii go TO buy votes.
Unless this purchase and sale OF
Suffrage shall cease, the American
Government will expire, AMI you might
as well be getting ready the monument
for another dead nation and let my
text inscribe upon it these words,
: Alas. alas. for Babylon. tha6 great
city, thai mighty city. for in n hour
Is thy Judgment come! My friends,
If you have not noticed that political
bribery is one of the CHASTITY crimes of
this day, you have not kept your eyes

1t is of the utmost Importance that
silver bullion be speedily restored to
par, and in order that this may be
done the government should purchase
our entire home product and so much
of the foreign product as may be
offered, at par. The silver thus pur-
chased may be converted into bars

bars should be converted into coin as
needed, but there is no necessity for
coming a larger amount than is acJu-
ally necessary for currency purposes
IF the 81 and 50 bills were retired,
and silver coin issued in lieu thereof, a
much larger quantity of silver cur
rency could be employed. The expert
ment might first be tried with the 81
bills. 1t is believed that said policy
would exert a beneficial influence in
restoring silver to par and maintain
ing it there.
Silver should be made a legal tender
to the same extent that it was when
dPmonetized by act of Congress, Feb
ruary -, 1873. Prior to said time I
believe it was a legal tender for any
amount. The passage Of said act ap,

In a pamphlet by Mr.. D R. GoOdloe,
of Washington, d. c., 4363 FL street,
N. W. the foregoing affidavit is sub
stantiaHy corroborated, as follows:
Mr.. Hooper, of Massachusetts,. ad-
dressed the House In explanation of
it's nature He said: Mr.. Ernest
Seyd, of London, a distinguished
writer, who has given great attention
to the subject OF minis an coinage,
after examining the first draft of the
bill, furnished many valuable sUgges
tons which were incorporated IN the
bill" Page Is.
Mr.. Seyd very probably furnished
much of the cunning of said bill that
deceived the great mass of those who
passed it as to its true character. 1t
was at most known to but few, outside
of Mr.. Hooper, that silver had oeen de-
mOnetized.
Silver should have the same chance
of gold. Join both together and let
both sink or swim together as cur
rencies.
We should no longer permit England
to regulate, in her interests, the price
of silver bullion. We can easily bring
it to par if we will pay par for 1t; and
it would be greatly to the advantage

ly revolving fan are familiar objects

by their combination. But the electric
fan has recently found its way into a
strange place, none other than the tur-

four of its perfected fan outfits. These
are not, as might be supposed, to cool

smoke from the guns. This certainly Is
