GRAIN TRADE AND CROPS.

Dry weather has prevailed most oil

tions have been retarded more or less
Moderate rainfall in the past few days
I in portions of this region has given
some relief, but not to the full extent
desired. The corn crop is being cut
| up to a large extent. The general
indications concerning the crop are
without notable change; it is not like

ton in the aggregate. There will be
Ian increase in the leading western
States, and decided decrease in the
South.
In many sections there is q fairly
liberal marketing of what surplus
wheat there Is, under the urgency of
monetary needs. Conditions are with
ont much change in regard to both
winter and spring wheat. While the
Government data appear to suggest
about 400, 600, 900 bushels, according to
the prevailing Interpretation, the cit
ualion seems to justify expectations of
a larger crop, possibly il not probably
45O, GOO, 600 bushels. or $4,000, 900 short
of last year. The quality Of the winter
grain continues to be reported upon
unsavorably. The spring grain will
generally be good in quality.
The indications in regard to the
clover seed crop are that it will be
considerably deficient in yield. proba-
bly, fairly good as rule in quality.
Autumn pasture is generally good,
and in various localities there is lack
ing q sufficient supply of feeding ami
mails to make use of the same. This
seems to be especially true with refer
ence to cattle. There is liberal sup
ply of young hogs in most sections,
and there are increasing complaints of
available stock forward in some Sec
tions.
The wheat markets have been shap
ing upward, and the week marks a
fair advance at Chicago and else where.
This appears to come from q general
acceptance Of the view that the worlds
supplies for the year are not to be
burdensome, and in fact may in time
prove to be tardy Of movement except
at better prices than have been of late
and are now prevailing. The trade
sentiment In the British markets is
one Of much confidence with reference
to the future of the wheat markets.
The corn market at Chicago closes

ed q week ago. Current values~are
not calculated to encourage an active

mates are being moderately reduced.
There will, however, be quite a sur
plus from the crop to be added to the

The Fifty Cent Dollar.

When the gold-bugs speak of the
fifty cent dollar they must mean fifty
cents as compared with gold, and this
necessitates the assumption that gold
is an unvarying standard of value, il
they are wrong in this then their whole
argument must meet the same fate
that awaits other structures founded
on the sand. They say their dollar is
hundred cent dollar. an argumr MT
just as unanswerable and just as irrel
evant as it would be to say it also con-
tanned four quarters.
Money. which is the child of COM
merce, and but for which it would
never have existed, is simply the re.
suit of an attempt to establish an un
varying standard of exchange for use
in trade, and it is a success or failure
just as it conforms to or deviates from
this ideal requirement.. Judged by this
definition no sane man can say that
gold has been even an approximate
success. On the contrary it has day
by day since 1878 grown more and
more valuable, SO that the man who
promised five years ago to pay a thous-
and dollars, today must. to raise that
thousand dollars, sell more wheat,
more-corn or more cattle than would
have been necessary to pay that debt
the day it was contracted. Again,
take out national debt. At the end
of the war it was three billions of dol
lars, two billions bushels of wheat
would easily have paid it, we have
since paid two billions of that debt
and it will still take two billions bush
els Of wheat to pay the remaining un
paid billion, in other words, having
paid two thirds of what we have Dor |
rowed, we are no better off than when |
we began.
This is not only true of wheat but is
true of cotton and of almost every
other great staple product of the coun-
try; instance after instance similar to
this might be cited to show how the
moneyed interest of this country has
shaped legislation to the end that the
purchasing power of dollar might be
an. ever increasing quantity-a con-
Summation devoutly to be wishes for by
those who have tho dollars, but not
by those who owe them. It is to cor
rect this tendency that we ask for the
free coinage of silver, that may not
bring the millennium but it will help.
The bullion value of the silver dol
lar today, even in the face OF adverse
legislation has remained more nearly :
an unvaryiDg unit of value than has |
the bullion value Of the gold dollar. 9
The trouble ia not because Of tb. !.
hfty cent silver dollar but because of :
'he two hundred cent gold dollar. d

Glass Against Class.

1t is favorite argument with many
of our gold friends to hold up theil
hands, and with blanched cheeks tel
how horrible it is for Bryan, to array
one class against the other. They for
get that if this were crime the first
criminal in the campaign was Bourkt
Cochran the man who took their golG
as fee for denouncing the Southern
and. Western farmers. But as two
wrongs do not make one right, let Ut
look at the statement, and see if it il
true. Have any of the class opposing
Mr.. Bryan suffered violence on account
of his words2 Where and when has
he uttered word or line of incendiary
language? He has made many
speeches. He has talked to the largest
crowds that ever listened to mortal
man. Where and when has there been
an arraying of class against class2 The
truth is the statement is baseless
and false. Those who make it forget
that the monied class has been so
tyrannical. domineering and insati-
able, that they have become q COM
mon enemy, and Mr.. Bryan is only
telling the people about it. Heis only
showing the peaceable way, and adj
vising them to adopt the only law
abiding way to avenge the outrages
committed on them in the past, and
stop those which are proposed for the
future.
Did any of our readers ever see a
cold and Shiny toad, which had made
his home under the stone upon which
stood a hive of bees. come forth at
sunset after a day of sleepy incidence
and crawl upon the stone, and as the
little toilers laden with honey and the
honey comb, came Fastening home,
and as they passed this lazy monster
see his long tongue dart ont, and the
poor bee disappear? This is familiar
sight to those who have bees, and
often occurs, with as much propriety
might that toad exclaim when some
friends of the bees warned them of
their danger or told them to go round
some other, way. or quit the hive,
denounce the friend who warned
them, as the millionaires. and monop-
olists cry out against Bryan for warn
ing the people against them.
They should be warned and there
has risen up out of the west, this man
who is warning them. Let them then
remember the fate of the Ninnevftes
and Babylonians, lest they be over
whelmed when they least expect it, or
lest they be like the hive of bees,
decimated by set of lazy, worthless
toads.
