>tasiidacA ~ IL Agricultural Department has
recently published tabular state
ment which it calls san attambt to
chow the world wheat production for
the years 1891 to 1894. - The totals
indicate o steadily increasing supply,
from 1850, TAG, 600 bushels in 1891 to
$500, 121, 900 in 1894. Unfortunately,
however, states the New York Times,
the estimates of the crops in this
country arc those which werc long
ago rejected. Everybody knows that
for the last four years our wheat crops
have been very much stnderestimated
by the department. The actual ex-
cess over the departments figures for
the two crops for 1891 and 1892 was
about 100, 900, 600 bushels. The crop
of.1893 WAS larger by at least 0,00O,-
900 bushels than tho quantity which
the department reported. By almost
universal consent the official report
for the last years crop is at least 49,
600, 900 short of the actual yield. If
the departments figures for this
country be corrected, however, in ac-
cordance with the estimates now gen.
orally received, the increase of the
worlds crop will still demand atten-
ton, the total growing from 2,433,-
100000 bushels in 1891 to 2,645, ,0OO,-
900 in 1894, and this increase has had
some effect upon prices. The growth
of the supply in South America and
Russia especially calls for considera-
tion:

The natural effect of such increases in
exporting countries on prices can
easily be seen. 1t may be noted, also,
that Russia has this year On export
surplus of 1872, 200, 900 bushels of rye,
as against 7O,000,000 year ago, and
when rye is plentiful and cheap. in
Europe, as it is now, the consumption
of wheat there is affected by the use of
this other cereal.

THE Reform CLUB Comm1rrEE.

One of the most important features of
the Reform Club committees work has
been the Wholesale distribution Of pop
ular sound-money documents. Twelve
numbers OF the Sound Money" series
have been issued since December last
with total circulation OF $50, 900 copies
and regular subscription list of Is, 900.
Mr.. Horace Whites clever answer to
Coin" called Coins Financial Fool ="
is number eleven OF the series, and OF it
over 10000 copies have already been
distributed.
The CON mittee have made arrange
ments for "broadside supplements" on
sound money, which are supplied to
over two hundred local papers, mainly
in the South and the West. Every fort
night over 10000 full-psge suppler
ments are sent out. each one to go
into some rural home, where the
weekly paper Is read from beginning to
end.
Arrangements have been made by
which plate-matter treating OF the cur
reney question can be sent to papers
having a circulation similar to those
taking the supplements About Mo-
vember next Currency Red. Book will
tion of statistics, brought down to date,
upon all phases of the curranoy ques-
ton.
The New York Reform Club is by no
means siDgle-hsnded in its work. Active
cooperation is being furnished by or.
gapizations in Boston. Chicago, St.
Louis, Buffalo and Grand Rapids, and
saund currency clubs are being rapidly
formed in various other quarters. The
expense OF this work Is enormous. THE
circulation OF Documents" the commit
tee says, which WAS matter of thous-
ands last autumn, of tens Of thousands in
the winter. and OF hundreds OF thous-
ands in The early part OF the spring, has
already become one of millions" The
office room OF the committee Is at So
William street, New York.-Baltimore
News.
And who Is footing the enormous
expense OF carrying on this business?
The bankers and money lenders Of
New York and London are footing the
bills. And why are they footing the
bills? Because the single standard has
doubled the purchasing power OF their
money (gold). The war Is on. 1t Ia a
battle between the few rich and the
many poor. II the rich win this will
be country of barons and serfs. q
