OFFICIAL REPORT FROM DIRECTOR CRAIG
HILL AND OBSERVER RYKER.
For ten days ending Monday, June 6, 1892.
LYNCHBURG, VA, June 6.-Th:s issue
of the weather crop bulletin is intended
TO cover a period of ten days; hereafter
they will, as heretofore, cover a period OF
seven preceding days ending with Mon
DAYS. Some of our correspondents bave
failed TO remember the fact that change
IN date of issue was to be made, and there
fore only a few have made their reports
cover the conditions for the entire ten
DAYS. But from reports received, it is
shown that the general average of the
temperature has been slightly above the
normal for the season, though on Satur-
day morning, May 2Stb, the temperature
was decidedly low, and light frost was
reported from Savedge, Surry county, on
that morning. The amount of sunshine
has been about the DOrmal. The rainfall
during the past ten days has been gen
orally below the average, while from
Lynchburg, southwestward, it has been
slightly in excess. In Carroll county it
has been too wet to work the corn crop,
but otherwise the conditions have been
favorable. In Russell county, wheat,
grass, corn, and oats are doing remark
ably well, but fruit, especially apples, is
falling off. At Salem there has been $50
inches of rain in the past ten days, but it
has occurred in such a way as to produce
good effects, and all crops have improved
decidedly. Danvllle reports favorable
weather, and crops IN good condition.
Lynchburg reports 1.59 inches rainfall,
with crops in good condition.
Grass and wheat are generally in fair
to good condition, except towards the
north where much corn had to be re-
planted. The oats crop is reported 40
below the average in some of the north
ern counties, and grass is also short.
Tobacco plants seem to be in good con-
dltion, and plant setting is about finish
ed in some sections, and generally well
advanced in all. Preparations for cutting
the hay crop is being made in the eastern
sections. Garden truck is generally in
good condition, and prospects are good for
the potato crop. and on the whole the past
ten days have been generally favorable
to the agricultural interests of the State.

Death of Col. Frank Ruffln.

RICHMOND, VA, June Col. Frank
G.. Ruffin, second auditor Of the state, and
one of the best known men in Virginia,
died tonight at midnight of apoplexy
Col. Rufin has been prominent figure
and state politics for many years past,
and acquired distinction as pamPhleteer
and contreyersialist. He was particularly
we'll informed as to the most minute de-
tails of the state debt, and when that
question was made an issue, identified
himself with the readjuster party and
was one of its ablest members, until the
revolt against Malone drove many of its
strongest advocates back into the original
democratic ranks.
Col Ruffin was subsequently elected
second auditor of the state by the
democratic legislature and had held
the position for several terms. He
was known personally to nearly every
politician in the state. He was a man of
strong con victions and preiudlces, as may

Republican National COlV0l-
ton.

The Republican National Convention
met in Minneapolis on Tuesday. J. 5.
Fassett, of New York, was made tempo
rary chairman, and after the appointment
of the different committees tho convention
adjourned until Wednesday. On reassem-
bling Gov. Mckinley, of Ohio, took the
gayel as permanent chairman. Up to this
time only two names, those of Blaine anc
Harrison have been prominently mention
ed for the presidency. The friends of each
are confidently claiming the nomination
for their fayorites, but the fight between
these two factions has become so sharp
and bitter that it is not at all improbable
that dark horse may be chosen in the
end for the sake OF harmony. Genl. Aiger'
of Michigan, is also a candidate, his
friends claiming that he will have sixty
votes on the first ballot.
Of the compromise candidates the most
prominent are Mckinley, Sherman, Reed
and Allison, Mckinley seeming to be in
the lead.
From the reports that are constantly
reaching us from the convention we IN
fer that President Harrison's chances rest
upon receiving the nomination on the
first ballot, as be is constantly losing
strength.
Gen. Malone was appointed one OF a
committee of three to escort Mckinley to
the chair, and he has also been elected
the member of the National Repnolican
committee from Virginia instead OF Jas
Brady.
The Virginia delegation is divided be-
tween the two prominent candidates.
with Malone leading the Blaine delegates
and McCaul those tavoring the nomina-
ton of Harrison.
We had hoped to give the nomination
in this issue, but latest reports Indicate
that no vote will be taken before Fiji
day evening or probably Saturday, and
we therefore are obliged to 60 to press

The Appointment Unconditional

The Appointment Unconditional.
The Washington Post, speaking edi-
torially of the appointments of General
Hunton as Senator, said: personally
the appointment will be favOrably re-
ceiyed, as it should have been without
the understanding accompanying it-that
General Huntou is not to be a candidate
for the position before the Legislature"
The Governors secretary has telegraph
ed the Post that there is not word OF
truth in the statement that there was a
condition attached to General HuLton's
appointment that be was not to be a can
didate for reelection by the General AS
sembly. The Governor says be never
mentioned the subject of the appointment
to General Huntcn, nor did he receive
q line from him on the subject; that
General Hunton is perfectly and entirely
free to be candidate or not as he pleases.
He was appointed absolutely and uncon-
ditionally.

Rich Rockingham.

A special correspondent of the Bllti-
more Sun gives the following facts about
the agricultural resources and products
of onr neighboring county:
Rockingham county produces six hun.
bred thousand bushels Of wheat but if
the wheat crop should fail there are other
crops to support the people. The dairy
and poultry product are worth as much as
the wheat crop, and the hay, cattle and
horses are probably worth as mnch as
both together. Once month, on county
court days, from SIS, 900 to $4,000 worth
of horses are sold IN the streets in Har-
risonburg. All Of them are raised on the
farms Of the surrounding country. A colt
fetches on an average about SllO ADD
costs the farmer but little more to raise
than it costs to raise a calf, The cattle
business is also an important industry.
All the corn produced in the county and
a great portion Of the hay is converted
into meat, and thus bring as much or
more money, while at the same time
manure is made to enrich the land -
