A DISPATCH TO the Chicago Inter Ocean
from Washington rather more than insinu-
ates that there are three views of the at
titude taken by Mr.. BLAINE with regard
to the use of his name as candidate
against President HARRISON. One view is
that the present agitation is entirely with
out the approval of the secretary of state,
and that he will cause this TO be under
stood in way which can not be mistaken
before the convention shall assemble. The
second opinion is that Mr.. BLAINE does
not expect to be nominated, and is not
willing TO accept the nomination, but that
he is anxious to prevent the denomination
of the President, and for that reason per-
nit his name 10 be used IN the hope that
the result will be the disorganization of
the HARRISON forces, as a consequence of
which it will be easier for the opponents OF
the President to unite upon a third man.
The third view is that Mr.. BLAINE is will
ing to become a candidate, to accept the
nomination and to make the canvass. 1t is
pretty hard to see anything strictly honor
able in either one of these attitudes of Mr.
BLAINE, considering what he has writer
on the subject.

UTAB's CEREAL PRODUCTION.

According to census bulletin just
issued, showing the cereal production of
Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho,
Nevada and Utah, this territory does not
appear to as good advantage "a it has been
assumed she occupied. 1t has been thought
the grain yield per acre in Utah was some
what larger than that of her neighbors.
but it seems that this is incorrect The
barley yield is $3.50 bushels per acre
below Montana and Nevada, and only
slightly above the other states. Indian
corn, 1466-below all except Wyoming and
Montana. Oats, 26.29-the lowest in the
list Rye, 10.01-below all save Idaho and
Nevada Wheat, 1893, which exceeds only
Wyoming and Nebraska, the latter yielding
but 1928 bushels per acre. In the total
production, however, Utah looms, her
acreage under cultivation being much
larger than some of the states mentioned
The total acreage and yield for 1889 were ::
Barley, acres 6, 440, bushels 1913. 1913; buck
wheat, acres Is, bushels SIG; Indian corn,
acres 5,7S2, bushels 81, 760; oats, acres
%, IA, bushels 597, 947; rye, acres 1889,
bushels 33,92S; wheat, acres S45O5;
bushels 1,5l5, 465. Cache county had the
best wheat record - 20,95S acres and
424, l76 bushels. Sanpete came next
with $500 acres and III, 15S bushels Box
Elder led in rye with 1851 bushels, out of
the total for the territory of 80, 92S. Sewer
produced the most oats, 90, 772 bushels, but
Cache followed with GO, 1856 bushels. Utah
county was ahead with Indian corn, II, 574
bushels. Salt Lake produced practically
all the rye, $50 bushels and Davis gave the
largest quantity of barley, 1914 bushels,
Utah being second with 81, 563 bushels.
The total area in cereals increased IN ten
years from 116, 1876 acres to l22, S7S. The
acreage in wheat oats and rye constituting
90 per cent. of the whole, shows an increase
of 16, 421 acres, while the acreage in barley
and Indian corn shows decrease of Il, O4;
acres.
The decrease in the population of Nevads
was accompanied by still greater relative
decrease in the cultivation of cereals, tn,
total acreage being 10, $50 in 1889 as com
pared with 90, 496 in 1879

VERY MODERN HISTORY.

A good story comes from one of the
southern counties concerning a certain en-
ergetic Republican, who, though not a
Democrat, would have but little difficulty
sin taking off his shirt without unbutton-
ing his shirt collar"
1t is said that at a quarterly Mormon
conference held in that county not more
than two years ago this eminent Repub-
licau, who is also an eminent church mem
Der, took the United States government
pretty severely to task for its treatment of
the Mormon people, alleging that the con-
stitutional right of religious freedom had
been denied in this territory; that unjust
laws, oppressive to the Mormon people and
calculated to deprive them of their liberty,
their property, their right of trial by jury,
of freedom of elections and other substan-
tial rights, had been enacted; that the
Lord was justly angered at the govern
ment for these things and would, If the
government persisted in its unholy course,
sweep it. as it were, with bosom of de-
struction.
But change has come over the scene.
This same valiant churchman has become
an equally valiant Republican, and on the
occasion of a recent visit to the same
county, in the course of a political ''or.
ation," told the people substantially as fol-
lows: That we are living under a wise and

THE INDUSTRIAL HOME,

THE HERALD has never taken any par
ticular interest in the Industrial Home.
The institution never amounted to any
thing and never could amount to anything.
Too susceptible congressman with more
fanaticism than common sense and with
less regard fer the rules of economy than
men should entertain who control the pub
lie treasure, permitted themselves to be
duped into making provision for the place
by some female cranks and bigoted males.
The establishment 6eing completed and
thrown ''open for business" intelligent
people familiar with the situation smiled
at the verdancy of congressman and won
dered in what manner the elephant would
be unloaded when the government got tired
OF carrying it. the establishment of the
home was ludicrous and its maintenance all
these years has been ridiculous. True,
aside from the original cost, it has given a
matron or two and some charwomen. per-
haps, something to do, but its mission"
has been one of the most dismal failures
ever witnessed, just as everybody knew
would be the case. II was founded upon
the peculiar theory that the Mormon
women were not Mormons, proposition
both ludicrous and insulting, as the solicit
Gus individuals who who were SO eager to
induce somebody to enter the Home have
probably learned by this time.
However, the failure of the institution
being so pronounced that nobody now pre-
tends to think the concern could ever be
made success, Congress proposes to turn
the establishment over to the territory as a
school for deaf mutes, and the place could
be put TO no better USE The building, We
understand, is reasonably well adapted for
the purpose. The gift will be timely, for
the University needs the present deaf mute
| school structure. Congress has done little
enough for the territory, and this gift Of
what has always been a source of unneces-
sary expense to the government will be
received with thanks by the community
all feeling that perhaps 1t will inaugurate
change Of policy on the part of The
national legislature with reference to Utah

A HUMILlATING CONFESSION.

Prince Russ of the house of HARRISON
feels constrained to say through his paper,
the Helena Journal, that certain gentlemen
have '1abored under grave delusion" in
supposing the aforementioned newspaper
is an administration organ, Gin the sense
OF growing fat on federal patronage" He
declares an inspection of the books will
show that the Journal does mot do enough
federal printing in year to pay the salary
of the janitor who sweeps out the Office"
He goes on to explain editorially that
stationery and printing used by the federal
Offices in Helena is furnished by the gov
eminent printing Office at Washington,
and to say furthermore that his "paper
depends wholly upon it's merits as
a business proposition for sustenance."
After this confession and explanation
nobody will pretend to say that RUSSELL
gets anything from the governments
strong box for his newspaper, but we trust
the prince will not complain if we denounce
as a burning shame the neglect of his jour
nalistic enterprise by his pa. We insist
that this is carrying the proprieties little
too far. 1t isn't RUssELL's fault that he is
the son of his father, and it must be urged
that the man who gave the boy the title of
prince should provide for the boy in a
prlncely way. All the newspapers In the
country will stand in with the administra-
ton in support of suspension of the rules
in favor of the Helena Journal, in order
that Prince Russ may not again be under
the necessity of explaining that his pster-
nal ancestor carries the matter of official
propriety TO the point of ingratitude to his
son and heir Give the Journal some
federal patronage.

IF SINCERE sympathy could destroy grief
the hearts of Mr.. and Mrs. S. p. TEAsDEL
would not be weighed down with sorrow
today as they follow their beloved daugh-
ter, Mrs. H. c. WHITE, to the grave, and
the stricken husband and mourning
brothers and sister would not feel that
their bereavement is greater than they can
endure. The deceased was a most
amlable Lady, who endeared her

came in contact. Those who know how
dear she was to her family will appreciate
the mightiness of the affection which has
come upon the bright and cheerful home
OF few days ago, and can sense something
of the gloom which will follow the going
out Of the sunshine which she shed in thai
happy household. The untold friends OF
the family extend the truest sympathy
and if it were possible to do SO, would
carry all the sorrow and bear all the grief
of the mourning relatives.

A TENNESSEE court has just declared
President PoLK's will invalid, though he
died in 1s49. The explanation OF the long
delay is that he undertook to create per-
petuity by devising property of his wife's,
after she should die, to the state of Ten
nessee. The result is that the property
must be divided among some sixty rela-
tives scattered over the country. Presi-
dent Polk wrote the will himself, and like
many other lawyers who have written
wills wrote it so that 1t could not be carried
into effect.
