WASHINGTON LETTER

From Our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON d. G., May 20, 1S92-The
presidential guessers, OF which Washing
ton has an over supply, are just now in
the full enjoyment OF years, and not
always that often. as 1T has sometimes
happened that the nominees OF all Of
the national conventions were known
almost to a certainty weeks before the
conventions met. But it is not that
way this year There is no certainty
what any OF them will do. President
Harrison might be reasonably certain
Of the republican nomination if Secre-
,tary Blaine could be eliminated, or
would say that he would not except the
nomination if rendered HIM; but he re-
refuses to say anything, and the fact
that he exhibits his increased strength
}by taking long walks and appearing al
most daily at some public gathering en-
,courages his admirers to believe that he
will except if nominated. Meanwhile the
situation is complicated by hints that
President Harrison may forbid the pre-
ysentation OF his name to the convention.
There are still more ''ifs'' on the DEM
.ocratic side. Senator Hill Is by general
consent out OF it, so far as his own nom
nation is concerned; but that he will be
"a powerful factor IN determining the
nomination is certain. Mr.. Cleveland
has lost ground rapidly during the past
week, from the Washington point O
view, and German has gained, while
there is an increase Of talk in favor OF

When, with each recurring year, the
patriotism of every true American citi-
zen quickens into desire to fittingly

sentiment of the citizens of Rapid City,
hereby invite the entire population to par

day, May so, 1892, and to assist in deco
rating the resting places of tile nations

that this end may be more elfectually ac-
complished, / respectfully suggest that
business men close their stores and places
of business between the hours of one and

decorate their dwelling and places of bust
ness with flags and other national colors.

TODAY AT ANN ARBOH.


There will be organized today at Ann
to become an important factor in I'M
,ersity life and in partisan political ed
ucatiOn.
The Tribune welcomes the new or
ganization as Il valuable addition to
American political activities, and con-
graduates the earnest and capable
young men OF the University OF Michl-
gan upon their success in its formation.
The Tribune extends frateraal greet
ings to the distinguished republicans
who will take part IN this evenings fes-
tivities and to the assembled guests.
1t will be a memorable occasion in the
history OF American universities, and an
inspiring event in the annals oi republi-
canism.-Detroit Tribune.
The above is clipped from the Tribune
OF the 18th. What does it mean?
That the wan OF partisanism among the
people has thoroughly alarmed the party
leaders and they have gone systemati-
cally to work to capture the educated
youth OF the coming generation. 1t is a
poorGommentary on the principals OF
part HAT makes the education OF the
|;chi1Q Qren, on pafty lines, Il necessity. Ii
are inclined to believe that it is a
EISnyemeDt born OF the desire OF parents
that their children may rightly under
stand the principals upon which the re-
publican party was founded, the;' will be
disabused when they learn that the idea
OF republican leagues in colleges and an
intercollegiate league Was conceived and
SO far carried out by a Mr.. Burke former
ly private secretary to Mathew Quay OF
| Penn. The gentleman is at present en-
tered as Il law student at Ann Arbor
1t was virtually admitted by the Trlb
une that he entered the school Tor the
express purpose Of working out this idea.
| We believe that conscientious parents
without regard to party affiliations,
should resent such a movement. Par
tisanism comes early enough in life
. without education. While tis necessary
that the student study carefully politi.
cal economy, to do SO intclligently he
should be entirely free from partisanism
1t shows cowardice on the part OF the
republican party that it does not pro
pose to permit the young to take ar
unbiased survey OF the field before en-
tering the struggle but proposes to fire
the young blood and warp the mind be
fore the judgement is ripe.

Jolley and Picker for Rain.


WASHINGTON, May "a, 1892. Before the
committee on agriculture today Messrs.
Jolley and Picker made vigorous fight
for an appropriation of $4,000 for the
purpose of carrying on rainmaking experi-
ments in the northwestern states under the
Dyrenforth system. Prof. Dyrenforth was
there himself, and after very interesting
speech, seemed to have convinced the com
mittee of the feasibility of his plan. Mr.
Jolley remarked that if congress would
give this initial appropriation, the people
of the Dakotas ard Nebraska. ils we'll az
the other states of the northwes. interested
in the rain experiments, would be willing
to bear the expense of producing ra,nfai,s
when needed. All they want is that the,
United States shall demons trate the feast
biiity of the scheme.
England's New Policy.
LoEdo !, May PIT he London branch
OF the Imperial Federation league held a
meeting Today at wlic!f fasesasal protect
iOn speeches we're lnade. Sir Charles
Tuprer, Canadian high commissioner,
said that if England adopted a small
protective tax, not II discriminating
tariff, no country would complain.
Cobdin's theory that all countries would
speedily follow Eng|a,,d's example by
adopting Tree trade had proved fallac-
ions. In concluding he Said that Cnnada
could produce :lll tie food tile United
States now exports to Great Britain
Another speaker, Mr.. Beckett, said that
Lord Salisbury struck the right note in
declaring that free trade had gone too
far. He advocated Il plan to appease
Canady by taxing all rival imports from
the United States.

ALTHOUGH the season is backward
farmers should not hesitate to put in
the full acreage intended had the season
been an usual one. There is no Sec
ton Of the United States where crop

have had abundant proof OF this re-
sulting from hail storms. Atgthe Sher-
man ranch a few years since, oats des-
troyed in July afterward made 40 BUSH

Yesterdays Deadwood Times contained
tie following item:
While other localities may claim the honor
of originating the plan of giving popular en-
tertainments as means Of raising funds for
a state exhibit, the idea belongs properly to
Deadwood and the Deadwood literary society
and the Columbian entertainment to be given
by that society on next Saturday evening will
be the FIRST actual fruition Of an idea which
has since been adopted in every quarter of the
state The program to be given on this oc-
casion is one of real interest and merit and
has been carefully prepared and practiced so
as to insure an evening Of genuine pleasure to
those who will attend it, not merely as per-
functory means of raising money when moe
organized effort to this end is wanting.
The UNION hopes the last half of the
item, beginning with the words "The pro-
gramme," is true. The UNION knows, and
the Times should know, that the first half Of
the item is absolutely false,
The first Worlds fair entertainment given
in the state was given in this city on Fridav
evening May goth. 1t was advertised by all
Rapid City newspapers and each of theu On
Saturday, May 81, contained lengthy ac-
counts Of the entertainment. The Times it
self had notice of it. Whether or not it
mentioned the entertainment after if was
given the UNION does not remember. There
is no excuse whatever for the Times assert
ing that the entertainment to be given in
Deadwood next Saturday is the first one of its
kind in the state.
Nor is there any excuse, except rank ig-
norance or forgetfulness regarding an impor-
tant matter, for the Times statement that the
plan of giving entertainments originated in
Deadwood. If the Times will send repre-
sentative to interview Mrs. William Duff
Haynie, president Of the Womens Worlds
Fair Commission, who is visiting in Dead
wood it can get the facts regarding the ori-
gin of plan. The UNION is well acquainted
with the facts of the case. 1t knew of the
plan before it was fully matured, it was the
first paper topublish anything regarding it anc
it notified the other women commissioners O
it before the Huron convention and befori
anyone in Deadwood ever spoke or wrote ;
word about it. 1t isa Rapid City plan, pro
posed matured and adopted by the efforts Of
Rapid City woman and Rapid City wants tn
credit of it. Will the Times correct itself?

HuRoN, May 24.-Special: In his crop
bulletin ior the week ending May 2l, S.
w. Glenn, of the United States weather
bureau, summarizes the crop condition
i'll South Dakota as follows: ".rhe pre-
vailne hugh winds since Monday have
materially aided in keeping top soil OF
moderately high to high lands from he
coming too wet, and aided the farmers
in their efforts to get their alter elupsin.
Many have worked steadily through the
rain.
Rcputs Indicate that.state considered,
wheat, oats, barley and rye are looking
we'll, a'',i that all the wheat, nearly I'LL
the oats, ami most of the barley that
will be sown ths year is now on the
ground Flax sowing is well advanced,
uns! miiett sowing advancing; corn
planting has advanced some, but con
siderable o! the ground intended for
corn will, it is believed, be devoted to
other crops. Farmers are becoming i'm
patient with the wet and cool weather,
but no apprehension as to the ultimate
results, except as to corn, is expressed.
Gardens will be unusually late, and po-
tato planting is considerably behind the
average time. The seeded crops, due
doubtless to the exceptionally fine char
actcr OF the soil, hold up well under the
prolonged unfavorable conditions, and
are at that stage Wher,, more seasOnable
weather will bring them rapidly along.
