Wheat Estimates.

In their financial announcement
Clapp and Company say: Uncle
Sans officials estimate of the worlds
crop of wheat in 1898 was 100000
bushels less than in 1892. Rumor
has it that New Workers are long
100000 bushels of May wheat in
Chicago. Chicago reports their
stock in public and private elevators
and afloat at 25,000,00O bushels.
The March Government report shows
114,000,000 bushels in farmers
hands, against 135,lO5,43O bushels
one year ago and liz, 100000 bushels
two years ago and an average for the
previous ten years of 127,000,0OO
bushels. The Government report
says the very considerable portion of
wheat now in the farmers hands is
from the large crops in 1912. The
total March lst supply in farmers
hands equals 2S.S per cent. of the
1898 crop grown, and nearly 100000
600 bushels less than an average for
the past eight years. Eleven princi-
pal eat-growing states have about
100000 bushels of the quantity in
producers hands, or say about 63.S
per cent. of all the wheat held in
farmers hands March l, 1894. The
average weight in 1898 was SIG.
pounds per bushe. The worlds rye
crop was about 150,000,000 bushels
larger in 1898 than in 1892. and lar
ger than any previous year. Some
claim wheat consumption in the past
has been nearly 20 per cent less
than usual on account of hard times.
Farmers holds and our visible supply
represent about 100000 bushels
less than two years ago. We perceive
no reason why the visible on July l,
1894, will not be about 100000 or
100000 of bushels as was calcula
ted on previous averages. The
worlds visible in January was at
the maximum point, 49,, 100000
bushels, since then it decreased up
to March LIST ten million bushels;
on March l, 1898, it was 229, 0OO,O 900
bushels. Crop reports are good from
nearly all countries. Black Sea ship
ments are unusually large. The In
dia crops are large. Large reserves
are reported. Europe's supplies dur
ing the past week exceed consump-
ton needs about 10 per cent. The
Price Current claims that there are
about 3l.000,000 bushels between
farmers hands and the official visi-
BILE supply, against about $4,000, 900
bushels year ago. May wheat in
Chicago was 76t, March 10, 1892 it
was SO, and three years ago 3l.0l.

SeigniOrage.

Now that the question of coising
the seigniorage is agitating the coun
try, the following definition of the
word as given in 1.-The Century Die
tionary" is of interest:
"Seigniorage: Something claimed
by the sovereign or by superior as
a prerogative, specifically, an ancient
royalty or prerogative of the crown,
whereby it claimed percentage up
on bullion brought to the mint to be
coined or to be exchanged for coin
the difference between the cost of a
mass of bullion and the face value
of the pieces coined from it."
The dictionary follows the defn-
ition with the following quotation
from John Stuart Mill:
IF government, however, throws
the expense of coinage, as is reason
able, upon the holders, by making a
charge to cover the expense, which
is done by giving back rather less in
coin than is received in bullion, and
is called 'levying seigniorage,' the
coin will rise to the extent of the
seigniorage above the value of the
bullion"

WASHINGTON.

Washington! What host OF
recollections flood the memory at
the mere mention of the name.
There is no place in the world
which should be so dear to the heart
of every patriotic American.
Washington Adams, Jefferson,
Jackson, Webster, Clay, Calhoun,
Sumner, Seward, Douglas, Stephens,
Scott, Lincoln, Grant, Garfield and
Blaiue-all the great statesmen and
soldiers whose names are like the
stars in the flag of our country-this
is the theatre of their great achieve
ments, the forum Of their memorable
debates, the arena of their struggles
and their triumphs; aside from its
historic associations, Washington is
justly called the most beautiful city
in the world--the city of magnificent
distances, perfect arsenal of inter
esting features-public buildings,
statuary, art galleries, monuments,
museums, paintings, parks and gar
dens.
All are yours; they belong to the
citizens of this glorious country and
can all be visited without paying one
cent for admission or fee. AS an ed

The Louisville Courier Journal re-
marks that scandal and corruption
have been the constant fruits of pro-
lection. When the government I'M
dertook to constitute itself partner
in business of certain favored indus
tries it invited the money power to
come in and take hand in the ad-
ministration of affairs. Under fed
eral patronage the greed of i'll gotten
gain has become insolent and reck-
less. 1t has debauched the franchise
and debased legislation. 1t has cx-
allied the trust and fostered the lob
by. 1t has dulled the public con
science and been fatal to nice sense
of propriety in official station. 1t has
brought business into politics and
set up the standard of the dollar to
dominate public acts.

Wanted His Enemies to Die First.

Another sensation has developed
in connection with the Robinson Nc
Donald tragedy in Taylor county, in
which Mcdonald was killed by Rob
inson, who, to avoid arrest, commit
ted suicide. Not far from where
Robinson's body Was found piece
of paper, neatly written, has been
picked up signed by Robinson, in
which he says he was not ready to
die, as he had three other men before
he went. One Of these was Ira Nc
Donald, son Of the murdered man,
William Meyer and John Morrow.
They had all conspired with his vic
tim, he alleged, to do him harm, and
he wanted them to be killed before
he should die.

yesterday contained at least dozen
items telling of the resumption of
manufacturing establishments in
this locality or the increase in their
working force and output
Our telegraphic columns this
morning contain news of the same
tenor from such prominent indus
trial centres as Rhode Island, Pitts
burg and Alabama.
This is but the news of two days
and is only a sentence in the whole.
1t is simply repetition to greater
or less extent of the daily news
since the repeal of the Sherman act,
which was one of the prime causes
of the recent financial furry, which
broke banks and business houses,
closed mills and factories and scared
money almost out Of circulation.
The prolonged uncertainty regard
ing the rates Of duty in the new tar
iff bill has had good deal to do
with preventing the speedy recovery
of business since then. This uncer-
taintv has been practically removed.
Outside of one or two schedules It is
now known to certainty what the
rates of the new tariff will be. Trades
which must cut their cloth accord
ing to tariff rates have resumed opera
ton and are running to make up lost
time. They understand their bust
ness and have simply been waiting
on the action of Congress.
To-day every branch of industry
in this country is planted firmly on
its feet. The uncertainty has al
most entirely passed and all that to-
day stands in the way of an unpre-
cedented business boom is the tim
idity of some merchants, business
men and investors who have no clear
idea of the situation and have not
yet gotten over the scare created by
partisan calamity howlers for politi-
cal effect.
They are laboring under the I'M
healthy and unconscious hypnotic
influence of each other. They com
plain that business is dull, and the
more they complain the worse they
feel and the fewer efforts they make
towards improvement. Business
won't improve itself Success de-
ponds upon enterprise, energy and
push" regardless of outside condi-
tions, and it will never come to the
man who sits down on his money
and waits for it with his head in his
hands, moping and groaning about
dull times.
The conditions are ripe for big
business boom and business men who
understand the business situation
have already taken advantage of it
by reaching out for trade. The
croakers who are ignorant of the sit
uation and to their own interests,
alone stand in the way of prosperity.
Even the political calamity howlers
have ceased operations to consider
able extent in the face of the rivival
of business that is apparent every
where.
The march of business prosperity
is fairly under way, and the blind
and foolish croakers will be run
over and left behind the procession
if they do not wake up and fall in
line. Stop whining and go to hus-
Ting and all will be WE'LL Wheeling

seek Revenge in Dynamite.

On the western fork of Harris
creek, the scene of the Brumfield-
Mccoy trouble several years ago,
where a number of men were killed,
there has been an outbreak recently
that Squire Vance and others have
tried to quell. Wednesday night
about 10 o'clock dynamite was
placed under the house occupied by
the Justice, and most of the build
ing was wrecked. One Of the children
was badly hurt.
The dynamiters. it is thought, in
tended to blow up the Justice and
his wife, as they placed the explo-
sive within six feet of their bed.

they lost their bearings, and the re-
suit is, that instead of having Pitts

Handle. Fayette county, with
all its wealth of coal, with nearly all
of the 10000 coke ovens of Pennsyl-

Wilson says the Monongalia court
house formerly stood in Pennsylva-

court records will show that that
county was once considered part of
old Virginia. An interesting address
on the mistakes in the boundary line
between West Virginia and Pennsyl-

by the late Charles j. Faulkner, Sr.,
which, if it has been preserved, would
throw much light upon the subject.
The Charleston men, who have
with local capital built the first TWEEN
ty miles of the railroad destined to
connect the Great Kanawha and Elk
valleys with the Camden system of
railroads at Sutton, might seek with
some success in Pittsburg for finan-
cial help. But eighty miles of road
remain to be constructed to give a
direct route from Charleston through
the centre of the State to Plttsburg,
and already the Pittsburg press is
urging its business men to unite in
an effort to build not only this but
even farther connections to penetrate
the South. The extension from Cam
den Ion the Gauley would open the
Virginia iron fields and in measure
take the place Of the failing ore fields
in Pennsylvania. the Pittsbug peo-
pie want the gap which separates
them from the Kanawha valley clos
ed up, the Charleston people want f.
nancial help to complete their road.
They should get together and con
