The TRIBUNE feels that it's position on
the Washburne anti-option act is justi-
fed by the present condition of the mar
kets. There is now practically no trad.
ing on the Chicago board OF trade. That
is but little dealing in options. Chicago
is now carrying something like 39,0OO,-
600 bushels of wheat, and as the banks
are not now in a position to furnish cash
on elevator checks there is practically
10 trading. There is no speculative
feature connected with wheat selling
and the marke. is just where it would be
under the anti.option act. The only
persons buying are the millers. They
fx the price. With the anti-optlon law
the farmer cannot sell bushel Of wheat
until the miller gets ready to use it.
Remove the speculative feature from
wheat, and unless there be universal
drouth or war wheat will never again
bring 81 a bushel. The North Dakota
farmer will get 50 cents or less oftener
than he will get over that sum. But in
any event, %anti.optlon OF no anti-option
law, wheat will never. except under
special conditions and for a limited
period, bring big prices again. Wheat
is the farmers staple and there is no
o reason for big profits in raising
and handling it than there is in the mer-
chant receiving Dig profits on his staples,
such as teas, c%offees, and sugars.
Wheat raising as a specially must go.
Exclusive wheat raising is a speculation
and is not legitimate farming. Ten
years hence it is doubtful if there will
be an exclusive wheat raiser in the
northwest. The big farms in the Red
River valley will be cut up into small
ones and diversified farming and stock
raising will be the rule.

TRIBUNE is quite certain that some one
of its numerous cowboy readers will see
to it that she doesn't draw a blank.

ST.. PAUL is now having a taste of bank
failures and there is not so much laugh.
ing on the back seats regarding Mime
apolis failures as heretofore. The St.
Paul failures, however, like those of
Minneapolis and other western cities,
are not bad ones. They are suspensions
merely, and in sixty days will doubtless
be running again as heretofore. The
suspension is necessary to gain time in
which to float securities on which moth.
ing can be realized at the present time.

AMONG the speakers who received the
greatest attention at the recent silver
convention in Chicago was "set up
stoves" Goodwin, formerly ex-attorney
general of North Dakota, but now a
resident of Salt Lake city. Mr.. Good
wiz has the courage Of his convictions
and his convictions on the silver ques-
ton have changed since he left North
Dakota. Utah is for free silver. Her
industry is mining and selfishly she is
for anything that will bring relief within
her own borders, whether it brings sim
liar relief to the country at large or not.

The Chicago silver convention did
not ask the government to fix the value
OF wheat at 81 a bushel, but it asks for a
scheme equally preposterous and dis
honest. 1t wants fifty cents worth of
silver palmed off on the people for 81.

PRESIDENT CLEvELASD's message is
an able document-concise, convincing,
compete. Although his action will be
severely criticized by many of Mr..
Cleveland's former admirers ana sup
porters he will, nevertheless, be sup
ported in his position by the conserva-
tive, intelligent and loyal majority of
both the republican and democratic
parties. The %exigencies demanded a
document from the chief executive of
the nation of a non-partizan character.
1t is a matter rising above the plane Of
party politics, and President Cleveland
has been equal to the occasion. The
message is free from the usual clap.trap
characteristic of democratic state papers.
Mr.. Cleveland speaks for the masses of
the people and truly says that "it does
not meet the situation to say that appre-
hension in regard to the future of our
finances is groundless, and that there is
no reason for lack of confidence in the
purposes or power Of the government in
the premises. The very existence of this
apprehension, and lack of confidence,
however, caused,is a which ought
not for a moment to be disregarded."
The president urges haste and endorses
the maxim that "He gives twice who
gives quickly" Never were truer words
spoken than these taken from the con-
Guiding paragraphs of the message:
"The people of the United States are en-
titled to a sound and stable currency
and TO money recognized as such on
every exchange and in every market in
the world"

honesty.
