Wheat in Manitoba.

The revised official crop report for
Manitoba reduced the total crop of
wheat to 14,3I1 900 bushels. or a re-
duction form the August estimate OF
t, l94, 600 bushels. The crop in the
Territories has been officially esti-
mated at 1000, 600 bushels. but this is
too high. and from the best informa-
ton we would not place the crop at
over half the amount, making total
crop of about l6.400.000 bushels for
Manitoba and the Territories. From
that total We viii not nave :; surplus
materially over 1000, coo bushels, al
ter deducting home requirements for
seed ana food. for shipment in wheat
and flour to Eastern Canada. and for
export abroad. The Eastern and
Western milling demand will take
possibly two-thirds OF this surplus.
leaving one-third for export as wheat
This is only rough estimate, as
the quantity of Manitoba wheat taken
by Eastern millers is liable to great
variation. However. it looks as if
about all the best milling wheat will
be wanted for milling in Canada. At
any rate, prices have been, since the
season opened, and still are. above

Annie Cores for Sale.

OF all the markets that combine to
give South Water street it's distinct
originality, undoubtedly the most
unique, not to say unseemingly, is the
one which derives its life fromthe core
and peelings OF apples. Persons who
pride themselves upon their adherence,
to strictest economy, who eat apples;
and throw the skins away, do not con-
scientiously feel that they have COM
mitted deed of extravaganza.
If the cores, even the merest struct-
ure of the cores, and the skins were
saved, dried and taken to the dealers
in dried fruit on South Water street,
they could be sold. The dealers in the
street are never overtaxed for space
to store the cores and peels that come
from the people, but they always man
age to have supply on hand to satis-
fly the demand, which is generally
small. Dried apple cores and peels
sell at &c and 1c "a pound. Chicago

AXE Don't Like the sound Money
Democrats

Editor Axe of the Ironton Register
has received a letterfrom an old friend
in hell. The letter is dated Hell.
November. Z. 1885, and starts off in
in the following style. For a num-
Der OF wears | have been an OCCASION
al reader OF your paper, which l am
free TO confess is much above the ay-
erage country paper Now will
Bro. Axe explain how he gets his pa
per to bell? What route does it go?
Who are the mail agents? By whom
were they appointed? Give us the
name of the Postmaster where your

that Postmaster's time expires. The
Sound Money Democrats are entitled
to all the postoffices and if that Post
master in hell gives up before Cleye-
lands time is out we know dozen

who will apply for his place.
GIRARDEAU DEMOCRAT.
The above IS the most refreshingex-
hibition of gallwe haveever witnessed.
The DEMOCRAT asks us for our cir
culation secrets with as much sang
froid as an acquaintance would ask
for match to light his cigar. For
the information of the editor of the
DEMOCRAT We point out that He'll and
Hades are not the same postoffice. If
he desires to open up communications
with Hell 40 can trust his message TO
the next Ingersoll Republican who
leaves Cape Girardeau for the great
beyond with the full assurance that it
will, if the messenger be trustworthy,
get to the right party. We feel that
to acquaint any of our Republican
friends with our subturraneous postal
facilities would be breach of conf
dence. There is nothing so much
dreaded in the lower regions as an
influx of Sound Money Democrats.
They would not only want all the
postotfices, but everything in sight.
The impression down there is that
nothing would be safe from their
greed, unless it was securely locked
up or spiked down. Consequently,
should any of our Sound Money DEM
ocratic friends become acquainted
with the route to Hades through our
instrumentality, our correspondent !
would look upon it as an unfriendly
act and refuse to communicate with |
us futher.-Iron County Register.

The Foreign Vote.

\ feature OF the recent election that
merits general attention is the fac,
that the foreign-born citizens general
| ly voted in favor OF the gold standard
and against the various follies and
wici:ednesses Of Organism. The
States in which this element is strong
est gave the largest maiorities foF
| Mckinley. while those in which ii
counts for least gave maiorities the
other way. There is little or no for
eign population IN the South. where

The Germans and the Scandinavians
were practically solid for sound mon
ey. casting more than 800. GOO votes on
that side. which would have reversed
the result in several States il they
had been cast for free silver. In a
relative way. the same is 10 be said
of other nationalities. The fallacy of
cheap money did not lead them astray:
the proposition to make debts easier
paid by adopting the process of repu-
diation did not capture them. They
did not take kindly to the idea of pro-
noting prosperity by reducing wages
and destroying values: and so. with
out regard to former partisan affilia-
tions. they went to the polls and helped
to overthrow the Chicago platform
and ticket.
The lesson of this manifestation is
obvious and important. We give our
selves a good deal of trouble from
time to time about the foreign vote.
and the proba bilities of mischief that
it involves: but we have here strik-
ing proof that such apprehensions are
not well founded. 1t is not true, as
the result of the late election plainly
shows. that the foreignborn voters
constitute force that can readily be
used by demugogues and fanatics for
the accomplishment Of wild and evil
purposes. These people bring with
them from their native countries GER
tain traits of integrity and morality,
and certain sentiments of respect for
established principles and institutions,
which make them good citizens and
careful voters. There are socialists
and anarchist among them, to be sure,
but the proportion of such persons is
small. The great majority of them
are honest, sensible and patriotic, and
can be trusted to do the right thing in
all emergencies. 1t is the native-born
element that furnishes most of the re-
cruits for movements of fantastic
and dangerous kind in our politics
The free silver craze was not import
ed from Europe. 1t originated in the
minds of the Americans. and was most
prevalent in localities where the for
eign vote was the lightest. This is
worth thinking about. as an assurance
that the republic is not in danger that

Free Rural Delivery.

The first trial was given on Monday
to the experimental rural postal de-
livery and collection. Edgar NJ. Fish
is the carrier and it was 10 O'Clock
when he started out on his fifteen-mile
route with seventy letters and papers.
1t was o'clock when he returned, it
having taken five hours to cover the
route and make the necessary expla-
notions. Mr.. Fish is sure that he can
easily cover the distance in four hours
when the system comes to be under
s.cod. OF course he has a horse and
wagon. Wooden boxes without locks
will be erected by the farmers in front
OF their houses, the mail to be taken
to the office will be deposited there
and the carrier will deposit therein the
mail which he brings. He will, in fu-
ture, announce his coming as he nears
the houses by sounding sonorous tin
horn. Many of the farmers were not
aware until to-day that free delivery
was to be tried, and consequently
many did not have their letters ready.
Mr.. Fish, however, returned with
eleven letters that had been collected
along his route. All told, there are
about 10 families on the fifteen-mile
route. About seventy-fve of them
have already notified Postmaster
Pierce hat they desire to avail them
selves of the free delivery and collec-
ton. 1t is estimated that about forty
OF them have boxes at the Office and
will surrender these.-Springield

Diphtheria in Illinois.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL. November 1S.-
DR.. Julius Kohl. of Belleville, mem
bel Of the State Board of Health, who
was ordered by the board to Investi-
gate the diphtheria epidemic at Mitch
ell, Madison County. has reported
having done so, and quarantined the
infected loc alites. and instructed the
local authorities what to do in caring
for and combating the disease. He
states that the instructions OF the
board will be fully observed by the
local health authorities, and that no
further alarm is necessary. as the
cases now there are well cared for ard
under control. NO other cases are re-
ported TO the board from other places

Vest on Possible Legislatfon.

opinion that it would be impossible
for the Republicans to pass the Ding

A WHEEL-BARROW RIDE.

That is What Ben Holiday Gave Matt
Morrison to Pay an Election Bet.
An immense crowd gathered on Main
street Wednesday evening to witness
a novel settlement of an election bet.
The bet was between Matt Morrison
and Ben Holiday and Matt won. The
bet was for wheel-barrow ride for
the winner. At about seven O'Clock

The procession moved up Main street
to Broadway and then back down
Main street to Hotel Scott. The load
was big one but Mr.. Holiday made
the trip without a murmur. The
crowds on either side of the streets
yelled and cheered as the procession
passed by and little boys followed and
made all kinds of sport of the wheel
barrow and its load
The wheel-barrow ride has been
great sport all over the country as a

tell him say send somebody who is
younger. The old man obeyed. He
was told afterward that he need not
report for duty again. Mr.. Childs
had pensiOned him. a year or so

story happened to enter Mr.. Child S
Office just as the pensioner was leav-

mind to ask a serious question.

ELECTION CONTEST.
The Legal Papers Serv-
ed.
Hope, Howard, FrisseII, Drum
and Morgan, Defeated Demo-
cratic Candidates, File Notice
of Contest.


Five of the defeated Democratic can
didates at the late election in this
county have filed notices of contest.
The gentlemen are, f. L. Hope, for
Collector. J. B. Howard. for Assessor.
n. G. Frissell, for Surveyor, D. y.
Drum, for County Treasurer and S.
w. Morgan, for Coroner. The cases
will come up in the Circuit Court at
the January term and it promises to
be a red-hot legal battle. The election
was close and the defeated Democrats
seem to think they were not fairly
treated at the polls, and especially at
the polls in the third precinct in this
city.
What the outcome of this contest
will be no one can tell but well in
formed lawyers hold that the Demo-
Gratis will get black eye before thev
are done With the fight. We are told
by prominent lawyer that only a few
of the Democrats were legally on the
ballot. This lawyer says that the
election law holds that a candidates
full name must appear on the election
ballot-that the law does notrecognize
initials. If this is the case John H.
Jenkins and Albert Poe are the only
Democrats on the ticket legally elected.
Let the contest 90 on.

Cockren on the silver Question.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 12-Sen-
ator Cockrell, of Missouri, returned
to Washington to-day. The Senator
was a member of the Executive Com.
mittee OF the Silver League, which
organized the fight that carried the
Democratic Convention for silver.
The Senator when asked if the silver
fight was to be continued, responded
in his usual vigorous manner, saying:
The Democratic party is the bime-
tallic party. We have got the organ
iZation, and have come back to our
ancient principles. There may be a
few. gold monometallists who may
slough off, but there are enough bime-
tallists to join US to take their place.
We will keep up the fight, of course.
We will make it from now on, as we
have in the past.
Senator Cockrell would say nothing
about legislation in the coming ses-
sion of Congress, saying he had no
idea of the intention of his friends on
the other side.
