The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1893-09-16

The United States Senate, IN voting
gu the a Of Lee Mantle, who was
appointed Senator by the governor OF
that state, after the legislature 81
Moztans failed to elect, has settled q
point never raised before. The Sem
ate denied him his seat-not on parti-
a grounds, but taking the position
that the governor of a state can only
appoint Senator when the vacancy
OCCURS during the time the Legislature
Is not In session. When that body
has met regularly, OF has been con-
vened, it alone can gill the vacancy.
If it fails 10 do its duty, the governor
can not appoint. Hence it follows
Chat O deadlock maintained to force
Che appointment into the governors
hands, as was the case in Montana,
will not be successful.

The government crop report for
September is not favorable. Pro-
longcd droughts, especially in the
West, have greatly injured the corn,
wheat and potato crops. The average
decline in the condition of corn as
compared with August is placed al
about 10 per cent. In wheat there
has been a general decline in the
Western States. The general average
Is about ten points lower than that of
last year and the lowest since 1885.
| Winter wheat seems to have been
more successful than the spring vs.
riety. Ohio is favored with an ex-
ceptionally good wheat crop. Pots
toes are reported to have fallen off
fourteen points since the August
statement. This condition OF affairs
IS most uufortunte. II means a heavy
loss to the farmers at a time when tie
manufacturing industries of the
country are partially paralized by the
fear of adverse tariff legislation.

The passage of the bill repeating
HE silver purchase clause Of the SheE.
man Law in the House aud the pros.
pect of iss early passage in the Senate
have undoubtedly had q tenency To
sestore confidence In financial quar-.
ters. This business outlook has
slightly improved and were il not for
the threatened disturbance Of Ameri-
can industfes by the House Ways and
Means Committee we might look for
ward to 9 permanent improvement.
With this cloud hanging yer every
industrial center the prospect of q
complete restoration Of prosperity is
remote. Fearful Of a change in values
manufacturers curtail productions,
aud for the same reason purchasers,
both wholesale and retail, decline to
buy. The repeal of the Silver Pur
chase law may release boarded money,
But it will not start up the mills and
factories and give employment to the
xaepployed.

Twelve western counties of Kansas
have requested seed wheat from the
Board of Railroad Commissioners.
No county in the eastern part Of the
State has yet offered a contribution
o. q loan. There arc 1851 applicants
who wasn't seed for 100000 acres re-
quiring $4,000 bushels. 1t is probs-
bic no nsore than one-ffth of the
amount called for will be secured.
Many of the destitute farmers will be
supplied, but that at least one-half of
the people needing this assistance can
not be provided for and will have to
leave that section or suffer greatly be-
fore another crop 10 rsised.

Trade L. SIN WAITING.

1t is now almost the middle of
September, when the fall trade should
b. fully under way, but it loves I'M
der the heavy weight Of the extra
session. 1T matters not that the
country feels confident of the repeal
Of the Sherman act; business waits
for the change. The most cheer that
we car get II of present conditions
is that failures are growing fewer,
that they are less important in the
amount involved, that the resumption
OF work in the mills and factories
adds to the number of persons active
ly employed faster than they are re-
duced by the suspensions, and that
banks are again able to fulfill their
functions. 1t is possible that the iron
business may begin to improve. The
resumption Of work at the great Cam.
brla iron works is an excellent sign.
That would not be possible unless
there was a new inquiry tor beams
and rails. The reduction in the out
put for the past month was IL OF L Q
sharpest that the trade has ever ex-
~perienced.
At the time we need a large export
of grain we are confronted NTH a
steady reduction In the surplus of the
crop. Our shipments abroad were
large during the summer, owing 10
the need of money on this side and
the prospect of a crop ample for oUI
needs. But all this is changed, and
the September report of the Depart.
ment of Agriculture is relatively one
OF the worst of recent years. 1t shows
a heavy falling off both IN wheat and
corn. Many OF the farmers in Kansa;
will be unable to get wheat enough
for seed. The applications are now
pouring in faster than they can posi-
bly, be met, and in twenty-six coun-
ties in Kansas seed will be short
There is little comfort in the sug-
gestion that those who have any to
sell will be able TO get a higher price.
Stocks have had their rise for the
present. Prices are low wen nov
it i, true; but they have risen hand
somely in the last six weeks. There
seems no apprehension OF any i'm.
portant loss or serious decline, but
until the railroads begin to make
more money and can afford to pay re
gu!ar wages without enforcing a re-
duction, ouly the most optimistic will
, buy and hold for the rise.
The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1893-09-16

The improved conditions of the
past week arc not actual, but hope
full; that is ell. It is true that more
banks have reopened their doors
than those which have closed; that
more wheels in the mills and factories
will revolve this week than were
moving last week, and fires that have
been banked will be again raked out,
Thst is the fruit of hope, of promise.
that Congress will act and that sui
fcent assurance will be given to the
world that there is to be no change
IN the money standard. We are look
ing forward to the realization Of these
hopes, but there is really nothing YET
ju results.
