FARMING NO LONGER LEADS.
Manufactured Products Amount to Much
More in Value Than the Crops.

Manufactured Products Amount to Much
More in Value Than the Crops.
Agriculture is supposed to be the
foundation of our progress and pros
perity writes R. Il. Edmonds in an ar
ticle in the Engineering Magazine on
modern progress. This is to a large
extent true, and yet while the value of
our manufactured products in 1890 was
SIS, ,61O, 900, 900 the total value of our agri-
cultural products in that year was only
about So, 500, 900, 900. The opening up
of new land by the heavy immigration
into the west brought into cultivation
ten or more years ago a larger area
than the consuming power of this coun-
try and the foreign demand added JUS
Tified
In pamphlet recently published by
c. Wood Davis it is shown that the area
cultivated in staple food crops increased
from 1875 to 1880 on an average of 6.S
per cent. a year, and since then has
steadily declined, having been 80 per
cent. from 1880 to 1885. and then IA per
cent. from 1885 to 1890. In other words
the total cultivated area is now in
creasing much less rapidly than our
population.
Of course in view of this the agricul-
tural productions of the country do not
show any such phenomenal advance as
has marked the growth of industrial
interests. The total value of all ag-
riculturaI products in 1880 was esti-
mated at SS, roo, ,00O,0 900. James R.
Dodge, the statistician of the agricul-
tural department, estimated the value
in 1890 at SIS, 500, ,OOO, ,0OO-a gain of $780,
900, notwithstanding heavy aver
age decline in price and very short
crops owing to bad weather. In 1891
large crops brought the total value up
to $4,000, 100000 The number and
value of farm animals increased very
heavily during the decade, the total
value having been 81, ,576, ,OO0, 900 in 1880
and 81, AS, 100000 in 1s90-a gain of

Mr.. Johnson has been confined to his

day of his second term, and was pre-
pared TO turn the affairs Of the office
over to his successor tomorrow. Not an
hour before the robbery he had closed
his final settlement with the finance
committee of the county board. Mr..
johnson and a younger brother re
NAMED and closed up some work. The
younger man went out and over to the
city. Treasurer johnson says his
brother had no more than left the bald
ing when he heard Footsteps coming
through the hall and pull at his Office
door, which was locked. Thinking his
brother had retained for something, he
stepped to the door. unlocked it, and
found himself confronted by two masked
men with revolvers drawn, who COM
manded him to keep his head shut, or
have it blown off, He was forced to
unlock the heavy vault doors, then the
larger safe and the combination on the
safe den0Sit box within. This done, Mr..
johnson was nearly stranged by hav-
ing a handkerchief forced into his
mouth and another put over his
mouth and tightly tied on the
back of his head. His hands
were drawn behind his back and
securely bound with strong cord. The
money, somewhere between $4,000 and
$1,000, was hastily removed and slowed
away in the overcoat pockets of the
pIunderers. Five hundred dollars,
which by oversight had not been placed
in the safe when the treasurer closed

TODAY's SKATING EVENTS.
Come Very Fast Time Seems Very
Likely.


Skating has been ''all the go" during
the past week, and the events among
the locarracers have been well contest
ed and witnessed by large crowds, 10th
on Monday afternoon and on Friday
evening The principal event today
will be the attempts of the fastest Skat-
ers of this city and Minneapolis to lower
the mile state record of 3:12 Is. The
trials will occur at the Junior Pioneer
rink, under the auspices of the st. Paul
Cycle club, and will commence
about o. al. The record of 3:l2 Is,
which was established by a. Scheibe,
last Monday, was big surprise, as it
not only lowered The best previous rec
ord Of the season, 3:1S 10. made by B.
Bird, but it also cXcelled the state rec
ord of 3:l3 % made last season by John
S. johnson. the Northwestern champion
skater andsbieycliSt. Scheibe'S time is
the best now standing as record that
has ever been made in Minnesota by an
amateur. Smith also lowered Birds
previous record by Is seconds, making
a mile in 3:17. Pannell secured 4 record
OF 3:l9 with only q week of practice.
Some Great skating can be looked for
from the leading ST. Paul flyers. and it
is likely that the record will go below
$40 before another fortnight closes.
The struggle between Bird, Scheibe,
Smith and Pannell promises TO be
kcenly contested one. and the rivalry
will be sharp. 1t is expected that the
representative Flour City skaters will
be on hand this afternoon.
If the weather and ice are favorable,
it is probable that all the contestants
will make their trials today the efforts
of the season, as this may be the last
opportunity to hold tie trials by day
light. luasmuch as no events under the
st. p. c. c. auspices Will be held on
The next event under the clubs
auspices will be the three-mile race for
the state championship. with first
prize of S25 gold medal, and second
and third prizes yet to be selected.
This race is open TO all amateurs of
Minnesota and will occur during the
week OF Jan. 8. The local skaters are
already in practice for this event and

PARIS ON NEITLEs.
No One Knows What the Next
Turn of Affairs Will Bring.

uEh VI [lhdAES "
NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The Paris cor
respondent of the Tribune says: The
strength OF the many sections OF the
party of disorder may not be much
greater than it was month ago. Prob
ably it is not even as great. Panama
scandals do not breed dynamiters at
once. What makes agitation now for
midable, SO far as it is formidable, is,
first, fresh opportunity, and, second, a
better organization. Ministers must be
well aware of both. Bath are of public
knowledge, and it is certain that the
police know far more than the public
and know some things to which
the liveliest efforts of the most imag-
NATIVE journals have not attained. The
committee of public safety, as if
alarmed by the general adoption of so
OminouS a name, has rechriStened itself
the commission of eleven and
enveloped present proceedings in mys-
Iery. Ali that is locally known is
that 1T holds daily meetings, and that
its members are not agreed. There is
party which would for the present do
nothing but organize the eighty sec
tons. There is another which insists
on the demonstration against the cham
Der on the 10th of January.
Citizen Pemjean. who is violent if not
influential, declares his programme to
lie something more than demonstra-
ton. He is for the dissolution of parlia-
ment bv the people. In his mouth 1.-THE
people" means what 1t has meant
for months to every French dema-
gogue since 1S72-the MOI, any
mob that can be got together at given
moment under the lead of any handful
of ScOundrelS or fanatics. Such a mob
is only to be dreaded when it collects
suddenly or when the rule of ter
TOR is established. The authori-
ties will not be able to say oil the
10th of January that they are taken by
SURPRISE; nor can anybody say that
public opinion is yet demoralized. No
doubt the reactionaries have done their
best to create state of things in which
the anarchists might see their chance,
but the calmness of Paris in the pres
ence of the explosion at the prefecture
of police shows how far terror is from
being general.

News says that President CarIOt has
had many enthusiastic greeting on his
journey and that no sign has appeared

The fight will be definitely agreed upon,
and the minor details have been salts
factorly settled. The contest, which,
by the way, will be star attraction,
gives promise OF being one OF the best
fiStic arguments ever debated before
the seaShore club with gloves. 1t will
occur on Feb. 6. The golden incentive
will be a purse of $1,000, and it is strong
ly probable that the cndeavors of the
men to gain its possession will be very
fierce and aggressive. Murphy's recent

with White in San Francisco has a
slight tinge of being prearranged at

thing is certain however, and that is
that this meeting will be an honest one.

TRACK LAlD IN 1892.
The Great Northern Extension the
biggest in the List.

The record of railroad construction in
1892, says the Railroad Gazette, shows
that there has been little over 1000
miles of new track laid in the United
States in that period, or about the same
amount of new mileage as was built In
1891. The Pacific extension of the
Great Northern is to be credited with
5SS miles of this total. and the
track laid on that line in
Washington. SOL miles, brings that state
to the head of the list of states laying
new track. Other long lines built this
year are the Sandusky Il Columbus
Short Line, in Ohio; the Texas extern
sion of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
citic, in the Indian territory, and the
Wyoming extension of the Chicago,
Burlington IL Quincy. The Pennsyl-
