A traveller in the Himalayan noun
tain region has discovered that the
natives OF that country cvltivate q
grain hitherto unknown In civilized
agricultural operations, which has
something the look Of wheat but has
very much longer ears and which has
a PECULIAR inward curve. The shiny,
grain, unlike wheat, is, on the other
hand, much smaller than wheat
grains should be for so large an ear.
But the interest is that a cereal OF
this character should yield such heavy
crops in so high an altitude, where
the seasons are necessarily short and
the temperature low. The natives
call the grain kownee.

COURAGE AND HONESTY. Fix
Governor ytoae of MissIssippi is a
man among ten thousand and alto
gether lovely.
That is what the newspapers Of hid
own Stats and many outside Of that
State are saying with more or less
emphasis.
Governor Stone was induced to be-

recognized ability seemed to renderic
certain that he would be elected be-
yond the peradventure OF a doubt.
The Democratic caucus, h0wegers
decided to catechise the Senatorial
candidates on the silver question and
made it distinctly appear that noman
who did not indorse the action OF
Senator Walthall IN voting against
the repeal OF the Sherman silver pur.
chase law could receive the caucus
nomination. Governs Stone did not
endorse Senator Walthall's silver
views and the legislators who ''put
up the job" on him knew it. Before
vote had been taken in the caucus
Governor Stone, realizing the dlsad.
vantage at which he had been placed,
withdrew his name, after reiterattng
and emphasizing his sound money
views. BY yielding his convictions hc
might have worn the senatorial togsss
but this he would not do, and even the
extreme silver men applaud his conr-
, age and consistency. The Vicksburg

obeyed the instructions OF the legisla-

The Post Says; ''WalthAll succeeded

:, legislature to stand in Lamar's shoes.
Although Walthah had the greatest
admiration for Lamar, he walked 10 q
different path on the silver question
