change of pitchers on the Wesleyan side
involved q change from left-handed
pitcher to right-handed one, it did not
appear to make any difference to the
Brown boys in being able to find the ball,
for in the eighth inning they pounded the
ball for three runs, including Woodcock's
clean two-base hit.
Smith and Little put up very good
game, but for the most part Wesleyan
put up slow and poor game, making
several wild throws at critical points that
cost them dearly, while Brown won the
game easily, yet the boys played quite
loosely, where il their opponents had been
stronger they might have changed the re-
suit The full score is as follows:

The Weather and Crops for March.

The following weather crop bulletin
for March has been issued by the Uni
ted States weather bureau
The weather during the past month
has been unusually severe, especially
in the central valleys and the South
west. and the continued cold, with more
or less frost in the ground, has delayed
farm work. The slight growth, the
crops have made renders it impossible
to determine the amount of damage
which has resulted from the unfavora-
BILE conditions that prevailed. 1t is
probable, however, that the freezing
weather caused considerable damage
in the sugar and truck regions of the
lower Mississippi Valley.
On the Atlantic coast the month was
from 10 to % colder than usual; 80 to 60
below the average in the Middle Allan
tic States, and from % to g. below in
the South Atlantic States. About the
normal temperature prevailed Oh the
Pacific coast, except in northern WASH
ington. where the excess amounted to
about % per day. The greatest excess
in temperature for the month occurred
in the northern portion of the spring
wheat region, extending from MINES
ota westward to Montana.
The precipitation for the month, in
Guiding rain and melted snow, was less
than usual over the greater portion of
the country east of the Mississippi and
also in the Southwest, the only regions
showing an excess being the southern
portion of the East Gulf States and the
central portion of the Middle Atlantic
States, with small and detached areas
in Southern New England, Northern
Ohio and Eastern Georgia. In South
ern Alabama the rainfall was unusual
ly heavy, the excess amounting in some
places to over five inches.
In the winter wheat region east of
the Mississippi and in Southern Mis-
souri, and Arkansas the deficiency in
rainfall for the month ranged from one
to two inches. In the upper Mississippi
Valley and in Nebraska, Iowa and the
Dakotas the rainfall for the month was
above the normal, the excess being
slight, except in Iowa, Northern Mis-
souri, and the eastern portion OF Ne
braska, where it exceeded one inch.

How the Nominations Should be Made.

The National Democratic COnVen-
ton is the body that is to nominate
the Democratic candidates for the
Presidency and Vice Presidency. In
making the selections, the members OF
that convention should look not only
to the character and qualifications OF
the candidates, but to their availablil-
ty, for it is useless to nominate candl-
dates that cannot be elected, and the
candidates most likely to be elected
are those who are the choice OF the
Democratic and doubtful States, and
hence the convention should defer to
| the wishes of those States. Those are
the States to elect them, if they can be
elected. and their choice should be
nominated. State Conventions can ex-
press their first choice, but should not
impose memorable instructions.
The convention should look to sue
| cess and should make its nominations
with that view 1t should combine
both principle and expediency. II
would be useless to have candidates
who could not be elected, however
deserving, in every respect, they ma!
be. Whilst expediency should ever bt
subordinate to principle. yet it is moi
necessarily inconsistent with it, ane
they should be combined to win, fol
unless that be accomplished, there cal
be no application of the principles O
the party for the good of the country
Personal preferences should yield fol
the good of the party, which is alike
for the good of the country. We mus
fight to win the victory, else all will bt
/ in vain

Growth of our Iron Industry,

The extraordinary growth of our
iron industry during the last decade,
says the Roanoke Herald, has in all
probability been little observed except
by the limited class directly concerned
in iron production. For a long time
England has been known as the great
est iron-producing country of the
world. But the publication of British
returns for 1891 brings to light the fact
that she no longer holds that position
Last year the total production of Great
Britain was 1928, 496 tons, while that
of the United States was S,279,S7 tons,
thus showing that this country has
become the worlds greatest iron-pro-
Queer. Over fifteen years ago the
manufacturers of this country sur
passed those of Great Britain as
makers of Bessemer steel, but the
great variety of the iron trade in that
country still enabled it to keep it's
supremacy in the pig-iron department
until 1890, when, for the first time in
history the United States came to the
front not only. as producer of steel,
but also of pig metal.
At first it was not believed that we
could maintain the lead thus obtained
But the fears entertained in this re-
spect have been dissipated by the
showing of the respective countries
during the past year, and there can be
little doubt that the lead of the United
States in this industry is now practi-
cally beyond challenge. In the past
ten years our output of pigiron has
been doubled, while that of Bessemer
steel has been trebled. A very i'm
portant indication in the development
of the industry is that it is becoming
greatly diversified, and that many
mills are working exclusively on specific
modes of production.
The total output of iron last year by
all the countries of the world is esti-
mated at "a, 800, 900 tons, of which twill
he seen thai one-third was made in
the United States. Our furnaces are

Congressman Should Not be Delegates.

A good deal has been said about ap-
pointing our u S. Senators as dele
gates at large to the National Demo
cratic Convention, through courtesy.
They should not be sent through cour-
tesy merely at any time, and certainly
not when, as in this case, they would
misrepresent the sentiment of the ma
jority of the people. The object OF
sending delegates is to have the true
sentiment and choice of the people
represented, and not to confer honors,
by courtesy, on any one. But we con-
cur in the views expressed by the
Rockbridge Neaos, that it is contrary
to the purposes of the trainers OF the
constitution for the members OF either
branch of Congress to be sent as dele
gates to nominate a candidate for the
Presidency, for, as it says, 1.-The constl-
tuition of the United States declares
that no congressman or federal office
holder shall be a presidential elector.
At the time of the adoption of the con-
stitution the electors named the presl-
dent; now the delegates to one or the
other national convention name the
PRESIDENT, and the electors are mere
igure- heads to do their bidding. The
congressman who attends and votes in
national convention is really, there
fore, undertaking to usurp position
which the spirit, though not the letter,
of the constitution forbids him to hold.
This provision of our forefathers was
based on the wise idea that the execu-
tive and legislative branches of the
government should be distinct, sepa-
rate and independent of one another.
But under the degeneracy of these lat
ter days it is coming almost to pass
that the congressman through skillful-
Iy using his deft hand in conventions
makes the president, and then assumes
the duties of the executive in his state
Of district, manipulating federal pat
ronage to further his political for
tunes, when the people pay him to do
something else. And the president,
trying to keep even, uses the federal
ce-holders, the representatives of
the executive, to pack and run congress
sional conventions and thus control
the legislative branch. The result is
the debasement of their characters and
the neglect of their proper duties on
the part of both and the degradation
of the high offices of great nation.
The true conception of the constitu-
ton is that the people choose the ex-
ecutive and the people choose the con-
gress, and to the people they shall be
alone responsible. The country will
in that way get better service, and the
tone of our public life will be elevated
in every respect.
For this broad and patriotic reason
we object to any congressman repre-
senting this State in a Democratic Ma
tional Convention. We admit that
the custom has come into general use.
But only since the civil war has it be-
come common. The Democratic par
tvs watchword is reform, and this is
one case in which reform is needed.
The present proposition to send three
congressman as delegates at large from
one State is besides we believe without
precedent
