Be In Fairly Good Condition.
The Farmers Review has received n
report from. its correspondents in ten
States on the condition of winter wheat
In Illinois the crop has generally gone
into winter quarters in fair condition,
though having obtained small growth in
some counties. Wherever IT Is covered
with snow the prospects are good. Some
counties report ground frozen hard. with
no snow cover. In such cases injury to
the plant is feared. In Indiana the plant
is doing well. and is generally covered
with snow. Ohio reports generally good
conditions. In many counties no large
growth has been made, but this small
growth is enough to start IL well in the
spring, provided no disaster overtakes II.
The snow covering Is good. In Michigan
the crop Is In fair shape. but too lightly
covered with snow In some localities.
Kentucky reports crop in good condition,
having been generally fairly protected.

all possible haste. and eighteen despairing
and frightened people were landed and

ceeds from the sale of bonds last Novenl-
ber been exhausted, and the reserve fund
depleted way below the danger line, but
the gold coin i'm the treasury has been re-
duced to about $12,OOO,00O, and the diff
erence between that amount and the to-
tai of gold is represented by bullion
bricks of uncoined metal. When the first
bond issue was ordered last January
there was So, ,650.175 in gold in the
vaults. In November when the Presi-
dent issued the second loan. II had again
dropped to 57,667.709. Friday the re-
serve fund was officially stated to be
SOS, S,92i,OOO.
1t has taken just about year to ex-
haust the $116,OOO,OOO of gold that has
been borrowed by the Government to
meet the difference between its revenues
and expenditures, leaving the treasury in
worse condition than it was before, be-
cause the annual interest charge has been
increased indefinitely at the rate of
$5,SO0,O00. Of the $116,OO0, 900 in gold
that was brought into the treasury by the
sale of bonds il is estimated that 10000
GOO has been shipped to Europe and $4O,-
100000 concealed in the vaults of banks
and trust companies, the tin boxes of
spectators and timid people and the
stockings of misers, who expect to see
gold at premium soon. There has been
a deficit of $44 800, 900 in the public rev.
enues during the five months past. and
even the most sanguine student of finan-
cial affairs will not venture prediction
that this condition will soon improve. In
the meantime the gold in the Bank of
England has increased from $136, 1870, 900
on Jan. %, 1894, to S176, 790.O0 on Jan.
%, 1895, and in the Bank of France from
$34O, 500, 600 to S421 ,620,OOO.
Senator Aldrich believes that bill au-
thorizing the issue of treasury certifi-
Gates or exchequer bills from time to
time in order TO cover temporary deicien-
cies i'm the revenue can be carried through
the Senate as a separate measure, but
other members believe that action will
finally be taken by means of amendments
attached in the Senate to the sundry civil
appropriation bill. A provision for bond
issue at a lower rate and for a shorter
term than under existing law might possi-
bly, be carried as part of an appropriation
bill, although some of the Republican
Senators doubt whether such u PROPOSE
ton could receive a majority in both

Expect a Sensation.
A sensation is expected when the How
gate case comes to trial. Capt. Howgate
of the army, formerly assistant chief of
Crawford avalanche. (Grayling, Mich.) 1879-19??, 1895-02-07

who had shortly before been dismissed
from the secret service force. 1t is said
that Howgate's whereabouts have been
known to the Government authorities for
several years, but for some mysterious
reason he was permitted to remain mt
large, although u reward of $1,000 was
offered for his arrest Drummond learned
Howgate's fictitious name and location
while he was in office, and as soon as he
was dismissed from the service arrested
him in order to secure the reward. The
fraudulent vouchers, upon which the in
dictment was found, have disappeared
from the files of the treasury, and the
District Attorney has been unable to
find any trace of them. Nor is he able
to discover who is responsible for their
disappearance. There are whispers TO the
effect that the regulations of certain men
of high position, both dead and living
are involved in the case, although no
names have been publicly mentioned, and
il Is not believed that the District At
tofney will be able to convict even How
gate for lack of evidence. 1t may be
shown that he did not enjoy the results
of his frauds alone, although the influ-
ence Of those implicated may prevent the
real truth from being disclosed, and will
certainly prevent any one from being
punished.
Relics in the Rubbish.
In the iilc-room and document-rooms ut
the Capitol, secreted under piles OF USE
less Government publications and the ac-
cumulated dust of years, lie many pre-
cious papers and books, whose existence
is forgotten, or at least is unknown. Not
long ago one of the file clerks of the
House of Representatives found eight
autograph letters Of Washington in the
midst of a pile of old records which his
superior officer thought he might just as
well get rid Of"
At another time he discovered in
pigeon-hole the original of the letter
Martha Washington wrote in response to
n resolution declaring it to be the sense
of Congress that the father of his country
should be buried In the crypt of the Capt.
tol, in which she gives her objections TO
that plan. Last summer the assistant H.

Uses New Money.

The President Of the United States al
ways uses new money. He never gets
any old notes, except in change when
making purchases. His salary is paid
him in installments of 81, 1866 each on
the last day of every month, and the treas
urer always makes it point to send him
notes Of the latest issue. Mr.. Cleveland,
as his predecessors have done, keeps a
private bank account with Riggs Il Co,
and makes deposit regularly the first
of every month, reserving enough from
his salary TO pay current expenses and
setting good example by putting the rest
aside for rainy day.

mill. but the important records should be
arranged for preservation. AS it is now,

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION

WE are in receipt of a marked
copy Of the American Economist,
published in New York City and
managed by "board of managers"
every one of whom are active sup
porters of the Wall Street theory of
finance. The marked article is an
endorsement of Gov. w. J. Neon
nell, of Idaho. The Econor.is list
endorses our governors views on
the silver question because he stat
ed in his Portland interview that
"the friends of silver will not force
the financial issue in the National
Republican convention next year"
1t strikes the HERALD that the
Governors endorsement comes from
very questionable source when
applied to the financial issue.
When a mans views on finance
please the gold bugs, that man is
not friend of the white metal and
does not voice the sentiment of the
people of the state of Idaho. If
Governor Mcconnell is on the
right track, then silver is in the
soup.

portance as moulders of public
opinion. TO this end, excursions
to the shores Of the Great Salt Lake
will be taken, as also trips to var
ious points of interest in and about
Salt Lake City, including Fort
Douglas, one of the finest military
posts in the Unitid States, and the
Ontario mine, one of the worlds
great silver producers. There will
be banquet and ball given over
the waters Of the great inland sea,
in the largest bathing resort pavil-
ion in the world. A grand compli-
mentary concert will be rendered
the visiting knights of the pencil,
in the great Mormon Tabernacle,
with the famous choir of 300 voices
on the program; and other social
and fraternal amenities will be ex
tended to the visiting delegations.
The meetings for the organization
of the Western Association will be
held in the Salt Lake Theatre, a
building erected by Brigham Young
nearly half century since.
Thus, will the editors Of the
TransMississippi States be afforded
an opportunity for grand mid
summer outing, chance to visit
the famous City of the Saints, the
beautiful metropolis Of the coming
State of the Rocky Mountains, at a
time when the glory of the ever
lasting hills and the splendor of
the fertile valleys are most appar-
ent.

WE are in receipt of an invita-
ton from the secretary of the Utah
Press Association to be present at
the meeting of the Western Editor
ial Convention which meets at Salt
Lake City on August 27 and 2S.
This occasion will be one of the
greatest meetings of newspaper
men ever held in the west. Sever
al state associations have arranged
take their annual excursion at this
time and meet at Salt Lake. Ev-
cry faber pusher who can get away
from his office should give himself
treat by being in attendance.
The following is a brief outline
of the origin and object Of the con-
vention and the program:
At a meeting of the Utah Press
Association held at Provo on the
29th of June, the Utah editors con-
cluded to invite the editors of the
western states to Salt Lake City
for the purpose of holding an edi-
torial convention, to consider the
advisability of organizing a feder-
alton of the press associations of
the states between the Mississippi
and the Pacific Coast.
In connection with this conven-
ton it was decided to combine
pleasure with business, by so ar
ranging affairs that a grand excur-
sion for visiting editors would be
organized, with Denver as a geth-
ering point for the editors who
would arrive in Salt Lake City ov.
err the Rio Grande Western anC
Ogden for those who woul enter
the northern gates of Zion, via tn,
Union Pacific and the Southern
Pacific roads.
To this end special trains will b,
run over the various lines in sucl
way as to bring visitors to tn,
city as on a triumphal tour A tel
arriving there it is designed to en-
terrain them in a manner fitting
