IN the proceedings of the house yes
terday was again demonstrated the
fact that Speaker Crisp can 60 clear to
the extreme in the Gar business. The
course which he has been pursuing
lately exceeds anything in boldness
and dictatorial spirit that Thos. B.
Reed ever attempted while he occu-
pied the speakers chair. In fact Mr..
Crisp takes matters in his own hands
and goes way beyond anything sane
toned by the existing rules. This
is something Mr.. Reid never did. All
OF his rulings and forms of procedure
were in strict accordance with the
rules adopted by the house. What
ever may be said against his
course while in the chair, it cannot
be honestly charged that he assumed
an unwarranted and dictatOrial spirit.
The easiest and most sensible way
out of the difficulty which the Dem
ocrats of the house find confronting
them, is to adopt some common sense
rules, like those which governed the
house of the 51st congress- This will
settle the matter much more sensibly
than the attempt to fine members for
not voting as they propose by the new
rule which stirred up yesterdays
trouble

REFERRING to wheat, Clapp & Co., of
New York, in their weekly letter state
that the worlds visible supply appears
to have decreased faster the past 100
days than is usual for any similar
time. Exports continue to indicate
clearances for the corn crop year end
ing July l, 1894, will be about 1853, 0O0,-
600 to 165, 100000 bushels. Reserves
appear to be drawn upon in all Sec
tions more freely than usual. Primary
receipts are far less than usual. Mad
am RumOr claims farmers are seeding
less wheat and feeding more, and
planting an increased acreage to coars-
er grains. They predict that the
yield for 1894 will be much less than
the crop of 1898. The government
report showing conditions is three
points below l3yearS' average, and 9.4
points above the report a year ago.
In this connection they state that the
April condition nearly always shows
poorer than the December report.
There are many evidences, they con-
tinue, that ''the 1894 acreage will be
less this year than for any season for
fifteen years, and perhaps fully Offset
ting the increased improvement re-
ported in condition"

ANOTHER INITIATION SCHEME.

1t begins to look as though Presi-
dent Cleveland would have chance
to express his opinion upon another
currency imitation scheme in the near
future. The Democratic infiationists
at Washington have about decided to
try and carry out the pledge of the
Democratic platform demanding the
repeal of the ten per cent tax on state
bank issue The failure of the seign-
forage imitation scheme and the i'm
possibility of securing the enactment
of free and unlimited silver coinage
bill into law, has again brought this
state bank note scheme prominently
to the front as the easiest possible
method of securing the currency infia-
tion they so much desire. And then
again they have some show of favor at
the white house, which they do not
have on their other schemes, though
this one is infinitely the worst one of
the lot. Mr.. Cleveland has Indirectly,
if not directly, given his approval to
the plank in the Democratic platform
which calls for the repeal of this tax
and SO they have hopes that if they
can get the bill through congress to
get it placed upon the statute books
with his approval. But should they
be able to carry out their design, and
present it to Mr.. Cleveland, it is hard
to see how he can approve it and pre-
tend to adhere to the sound financial
ideas that have heretofore marked his
course. TO tinker with the nations
finances in this manner is piece of
folly. Already we have suffered
enough from the threatened work of
the intlatiCnists and thetfree traders,
and it would seem that the folly of
such a course ought to be seen and
dropped, and the business interests of
the nation delivered from the I'M
certainty they have been subjected to
for the past year.

THREE YEARS TORE.

Three years more of grief and Grover
Would to goodness they were over!
For this land is very weary of his weight of want
and woe,
And we're sure but few would care if
This stuffed prophet of high tariff
Were to pack his collar box today and get right
up and go.
All his promises are busted,
Every hope in which men trusted
All the rainbow-tinted measures which he swore
would prove the best,
Have been toyed with to our sorrow,
And if men could vote tomorrow
They would swipe that free trade fad of his and
knock it galley west.
Factories are closed and quiet,
Soup is now the proper diet,
Scores of worthy men are paupers asking aims
upon the street;
Men who on the last election
Thought that Grover was perfection,
Marched, howled and carried his banner till
they'd blisters on their feet
Yes, they've learned the lesson dearly
For they now see very clearly
That the policy he's following will wreck and
disarrange.
Three years more of grief and Grover,
Then once more we'll be in clover,
For in 1885, you bet we'll have another change.

THE PRICE OF WHEAT,

President Van Horne, of the Can
adian Pacific railroad, has expressed
the opinion that the price of wheat
will go to 81 per bushel within the
next eighteen months. He gives his
reasons for the belief as follows:
'Last year farmers received but lit
tie more than the cost of production
for their wheat, while in many in
stances their return per buShel was
smaller than the expenditure. This
can have only one effect-the dis
enlargement of wheat producers and
the consequent decrease of acreage.
If there is decrease of 10 per cent in
wheat production this year on account
of the low prices of last year, there
will be shortage Of210, 100000 bushels,
and 10 per cent of decrease is well
within the mark. AS far as | can re-
member, there has never been a sur
plus of 100000 bushels. This year
the surplus has been used up by feed
ing to stock, and we will probably
start in with nearly clean sheets as
ever before. If there is a shortage of
but 100000 bushels this will not be
discovered until too late to SOW more
wheat, and wheat will go up at a
jump"
1t will be noted in the above that
Mr.. Van Horne is talking only of
American production, and does not
take into consideration the increasing
production of the outside wOr which
is having very visible effect upon the
worlds market. Any decrease which
may take place in this country may or
may not have a marked influence upon
the price of that article. This would
depend entirely on the worlds crop
in the other wheat growing countries.
] There is another element which has
been recently noted as entering into
this matter, and that is the introduce
tiOn of corn into Europe as an article
of human food, and as a consequence
our expectations for that purpose have
increased several times over all former
amounts, and are likely to
grow still larger. Just what
effect this will ultimately have
upon the consumption OF WneaG re-
mains to be seen, but it is reasonable
to suppose that it will cut quite fig
ure. While it would seem as though
wheat must advance somewhat, the
large estimated surplus will undoubt-
edly keep it from going to anything
like the price Mr.. Van Horne predicts.
1t must be remembered that there
have been all sorts of predictions dur
ing the past two years regarding the
price of wheat, but none of them have
been fulfilled, though this does not
prevent the fulfilling of guesses in the
future. But after all has been said
and done, and estimates made, the
farmer must be his own judge in the
matter and follow that course which
in his judgment will prove the most
profitable for him.

A SPECIAL congressional election
will be held in the Sd Ohio congress
sional district on May 1st and will
doubtless be watched with interest.
The district has heretofore given a
Democratic majority of about 1000.
But it is largely interested in manu-
featuring, and is not favorably i'm
pressed with the change which has
resulted from the success of the
free trade Democracy and it wouldnoI
be strange if the voters there should
express disapproval more or less en-
phatic.
