 There is a lesson for cur farmers ia ;bs results Of this years crops Cotton xilI sell for veFy small advance over last years pTiess. whise the pSie~s of all staples have advanced materially. The farmer viii be compelled to pay more for his meat. 1J1r and sugar. At this writing cotton is worth fT0C six to seven cents per poun6 in this market. The crop is shoFt-very shoEt and We are told it clsssiGes poorly. Yet thsre are many fsr2ers-z large majority of theFn-slso depended upon the cotton crop. even at last years prices. to supply them with sll they ate and wore. IL is true they could produce ss much corn per acTe zs anr country, could raise their osn meat cheaper than anywhere else in .iie world, but they refused to make the ef- fort. The consequence is there will b- much suffering. And when we say suffering we speak advissdly. and do nc. mean mere inconvenience. Many farmers will be hard pressed ,O supply their families with even the common es. food and clothing. All tbis might have been avoided by the expenditure of little extra labor ia planting cereal crops. Well-allsd crits and fat hogs might just as well have been made to take the place Of empty barns and hog pens, and abundance might have ruled where scarcity now exists. II IS usual Iy lOye's labor los. to write of these things in the columns of newspaper. Ths editors warnings are either total ly ignored CT resented as an unwaT- Tantable interference with matters which do n0t concern him. Anything which augments the prosperity, the in- dependence and the consequent hap piness 0. our people are matters of deep concern 10 us. The success or failure Of farmers involves the success or failure of all other branches of trade and ir- dustry in a community. Without pros perity among the farmers there can be no prosperity in any other business. Therefore our suggestions may appear to emanate from a selfish standpoint when we advise our farmers tO plant food crops and grow cotton as money crop. IL can be done. There are ex- amples sufficient ID St. Francis county to prove that fl IS practicable. A few energetic, leyel-headed men dave raised their supplies at hout Sand these are the mes;e'a ta assisr s5-aes no mortgage hangs and s..N>xd tk we money with which to glaeeS9 ie hearts of wife and little one hen Christmas comes. It is not so with the all-cotton farmer. In nearly every case he will walk out of his merchants store with not nickel in his pocket and with next years crop pledged in ! advance for what little the merchant is disposed to furnish him to keep ab. solute starvation from the door Won't our farmers plant food crops another yearg The lesson is surely plaio enough to all who may read.

We hope he will be treated courteously, though it is expecting a good deal of human nature 10 ask his victims to restrain themselves in the face of this insult added to injury. Probably he has repented. however, and intends paying for some Of the butter, chickens, turkeys and eggs he stole during his administration as commander of the post at Pulaski.

would foot up nearly two hundred votes,
and their potency in stampeding q
convention could scarcely be dis
puted. No wonder that the presi-
dent, who is nervouss little man,
should be kept in continuous stew,
and that the mere mention of Blaine's
name should cause cold shiver to run
down his spine. He has an incentive
eye on the man from Maine, and doubt
less feels that his secretary of state
ought to put out manifesto declining
the nomination at least three times a
week. As the date for holding the con-
vention approaches be would be glad to
have these disclaimers multiplied. There
is little doubt that Harrison was slated
for denomination at time when the
Republicans thought their chances of
success were much less than they now
rate them at. There is therefore danger at
any moment Of break away from the
Harrison forces, and the bringing to
naught of most painstaking work.

One Way to Succeed.

1t takes patience to succeed in estab-
fishing foothold in the most desirable
combinations Of men and women, and
am often amused by those who tire of
the chase and seek to buy their way.
Such persons hire excellent cooks and
give dinners at which famous entertain
ers assist They have cards printed,
with receiving days announced upon
them. They aim to leap into social rec
ognition with a bound. Alas! the only
women who come to their houses are
the women who are in the same social
stralt-women who smile upon one an
other and yet despise each another 1t
does not work. They drink their own
wines and eat their own dinners, that is
all.
The surest way to succeed that know
of is to begin young and never rest or
marry until as dancing man, or a
beau, or a wit, you have made your
self desired everywhere that your male
friends go. Then if you marry in the
best set to which you have the entree
you will start well on the road. Is it
worth the devotion of bachelors life
and energy? All, don't know. Judge
SO from the scenes l witness around me,
from the lives study daily. 1t must be
worth a great deal if it is worth the
anxiety and money and yearning and
struggle that men give to it wherever
see them. Cor. San Francisco Arco.

THE Rev. B. Fay Mills has undoubt-
edly created a profound impression in
Los Angeles. There is no question but
that he is eloquent and magnetic, and
his influence is largely for good. He is
singularly free from clap-trap or thea
trical arts, and seems to be thoroughly
imbued with the idea of saving souls.
It is doubtless good thing that the
humdrum of every day life should be
broken into at times by men like Moody
and Sankey and the Rev. Mills, the lat,
ter of whom possesses a method quite
as effective as those of the other gentle
men named. The idea OF closing up
business houses for one day in the week
is certainly recommended by its novelty.

THE Plumed Knight has hard time
of it denying that he will allow his
name to go before the Republican ma.
tional convention for president. Per-
haps the easiest way OF solving the
difficulty would be to take the nomina-
tion and submit gracefully to second
licking. Such plan would have it's ad.
vantages. 1t would not then be neces
sary to deny his candidacy three times

number of times at present.

WEDNESDAY the great ball struggle
will begin between the Los Angeles and

yesterday, the Angels beating the San

Dukes conquering the Colonels at the
Haight-street grounds at the Golden
Gate. This leaves the two leading teams
in the same relative position they were
in at our last report, the Los Angeles
boys holding second honors on the cir.
cult so far. The games of this week will
attract great attention, and will have a
great effect on the standing OF the clubs

. THE Viticultural convention which is
about to assemble in San Francisco
would do a graceful act in presenting
the name of Major Ben G. Truman as

knowledge and experience in this line
qualify him in an especial manner for
the post, and such a recommendation
would doubtless have great weight with
Director General Davis. Major Truman

THERE is unquestionably great and
growing opposition to the denomination
of President Harrison, and yet that by
no means prevents his gathering
in an occasional delegation. Even the
colored troops are fighting nobly for
him. In estimating the presidents
strength one is apt to be misled by the
fact that the usual form of endorsing his
administration is gone through with
cave in the case of few western silver
states. This does not necessarily imply
that the delegates will vote for
his denomination. Quay is known
to control the votes of Penn
sylvania and could flop them to any one
favored by him at short notice. Platt
and Miller, who between them own the
vote of New York, are said to be i'm
placable in their opposition to second
term for Harrison. Ohio has no love
for the Indiana icicle, and would drop
him like hot potato at the beck of
John Sherman and j. Benson Foraker,
the latter of whom is declared enemy
of Harrison. The initiative of these
three states would settle his presidential
hash in jiffy. Between them they

Mr.. WANAMAKER's officials are in the
habit of running things with such high
hand that we cannot say that we are
surprised at anything. We have re-
ceived notice from the postmaster at
Covina, dated May 18th, which reads as
follows: "Please fold your paper to four
Inches wide. not more than twelve
Inches long, to accommodate the boxes
'of this office. Otherwise it will not be
distributed until convenient" This is
what might be called the lordly way of
doing things. There is not even sug-
gestion that this postmaster might make
his boxes little longer to accommodate
the convenience of the public. We pre-
sumo that we ought to be grateful that
he has not made his boxes three by five.
