so is wheat and oats. The reaper
is at work on Dick Sullivan's farm
so 1 am told; it is an early variety
of oats, the white oats, 1 believe.
Mr.. ERoberds informs me that
his wheat is ripening. By the

There will not be enough wheat

told that corn has fallen in price in
the Market, (San Saba but there
are some hogs here that will do
much better through the summer
if they can get about 2 ears of corn
a day each until fattening time;
let's see if that is profit to feed
hogs on corn through the summer.
A hog that will weigh 100 lbs now
will continue to grow and do we'll
on one bushel of corn per month
till the first of September, and by
that time if regularly fed and has
access to water and pasturage will
weigh by that time $50 lbs, the
market price of corn being 40 cts,
per bushel which will take SL20in
corn fed to $3.50 hog make it
worth 1925, which will be So cts
for corn that is only worth 40 cts
in the market. The alliance man
must take care of the cents and
the ; will take care of themselves
if they can get a chance. So it
will be best to let the market get
its 40 cent corn and the alliance
man feed it to his poor hogs, which
will likely keep them out his
neighbors field. Hogs in the field
often brings strife and bad-will,
which is not a pleasant fruit to
gather. But uickles and dimes
are very convenient to hame in a
time of need.
The peoples party is fast gain
ing favor with the people, and by
the time the test is put there is
reason to believe that it will make
quite a hole in the two old parties,
but Just wait and see if there Is
any doubt. Not few candidates
are now on the fence for they seem
to be in doubt which is the strong
est, consequently they do not wish
to come out like men who wish to
do and act on its merits. Mr.. Can
didate if you want to get a good
support at election time, just come
out and declare which side you
are on; SO get off the fence and
take your row and work it out and
you will thing better of yourself
in the end if no one else does.

At length a truly busincSSlikc effort is being
put forth 10 secure the remaining sum required
for the erection Of the monument 10 General
Grant. which has been under contemplation
ever since his burial at Riverside. 1t would
be idle now 10 indulge in criticisms of the work
done heretofore by the men in charge Of the
monumcn, fund, or 10 imputc TO them m error
of Judgment in laying plans for memorial Of
such colossal proportions. Ii is sufficient TO
realize that the erection of the monument has
been begun, the design has been agreed upon,
and nothing remains save 10 raise the amount
of money still needed. TO the doing of this
General Horace Porter and his associates are
dcvoting themselves aSsiduously and earnestly :;
and TIE TRIBUNE has been moro than glad
to note from day to day the increasing interest
which is being displayed by the business men
of the city. Meetings have lately been held
at the Chamber of Commerce, the Real Estate
Exchange, the Merchants Club and elsewhere
and steps have beer taken for the appointment
of committees 10 make a thorough and Sys-
tcmatc canvass of the various branches Of
trade.
There rs no doubt that the money can and
will be raised. The present movement is not
only characterized by earnestness but it is
marked by the thorough organization which is
an almost certain premonjtion of success. New
York City is in honor bound to rear the Grant
Monument. 1t must be done by private con-
tributions, not by an appropriation from the
public treasury. In fact, we do not remember
any suggestion that such an appropriation
should be made. II the money for the monu-
mcnt had been promptly secured, no question
would ever have arisen in reference to the re-

THE COST or THE WORLDS FAIR.

OF course it was expected that the actual
outlay for the Worlds Fair would exceed the
original estimates Enterprises Of such mag
nitudc are not to be anticipated with mathemat-
zeal accuracy in every detail, but the latest
estimate of So, 22G, 400, furnished by Presl-
dent Baker TO the Congress Investigating Com
mittee, will excite general surprise The dis
burscment of such an immense sum implies,
moreover, a weight of responsibility concern
ing which the country is entitled TO every guar
antee: and the report of the Committee OF In
ouiry will he awaited with no ordinary in
tcrest. If Mr. Bakers figures are correct, the
Fair will be the most expensive as we'll as the
biggest, ever undertaken, and adrOt iinancler-
ing will be needed to avert serious embarrass
ment.
Official figures published some months ago
nlaccd the Fairs resources at S23 135, A. in
Guiding $5,G0S,110 of stock subscriptions
81 600 900 Of Chicago bonds and $40, 900,
900 of prospective gate receipts. The total
cost Of all the Exposition structures was placed
at 1925 900. and all other disbursements, in
Guiding operating expenses at T10,53O, O53.
This would have left a margin of $3.50 ,O92,
against which the management might have i'll
cured contingent Obligations. buJ tnclf dp-
plication to Congress i'll February for a second
appropriation, instead of a loan, showed that
they expect to exhaust available resources in
other directions 1t was reported then that
subscribers to the capital stock had paid in
60 per cent of the original subscription. BY
April | the city Of Chicago expected to
have also paid in S3,00000 of the $1,000
600 worth of bonds. The gate receipts will
unquestonably be large. The great interna-
tional shows of the last thirty years have
easily drawn from 10000 900 to 100000
visitors. At the Centennial the admissions
from May 10 to November 10, 1876, num-
bered 9,91O,9GG; but the total cash receipts
from this source were only S3,S13,724 The
Chicago estimate may, therefore, well be ac-
ccpted with reserve.
President Harrison in his message to Con
gress recognized the fact that Chicago had
fulfilled her financial promises, and, while de-
cining to recommend a grant of the specific
sum solicited, advised the extension of lust

No success has up to now attended the efforts
of the police authorities to discover and capture
the authors of the terrific explosion in Brook
lyn and of the two incendiary fires in this city
which took place early yesterday morning. The
damage done by the explosion in Brooklyn was
limited to the smashing Of the windows of at
least dozen houses in the vicinity, while the
flames in the two instances of arson uptown
were promptly extinguished by the Fire De-
partment. In none of the three cases in ques-
ton has it been found possible to assign any
reason or object for the outrages, which have
created much alarm in the neighborhood Of the
localities where they occurred.
