To Our Correspondents.

To put two columns of matter in one
column of space is often the difficult task
that confronts the TRANSCRIPT on Friday
mornings, and if our regular correspondents
would send in their weekly news letters on
Thursday morning instead of day later,
much of the difficulty would be obviated.
and we would be spared the very delicate
task of cutting" our correspondents and
they themselves would be spared the trial
OF having their contributions mutiliated by
the ruthless hand Of the editor, who is SO
discriminating and mercenary as to give
space to an advertiser who comes late in
stead Of the correspondent whose letter
might have come earlier. We want the
news, all the news and the latest news es-
pecially, but we are convinced that our
weekly letters could, for the most part.
reach us day earlier, and if there are any
items Of interest q day later, send them on
in addition to the first letter. The adver-
! sements are the very life of q newspaper
and we cannot afford to neglect our adver-
tisers even for the best of correspondents.
We sympathise with the latter in their
chagrin and dismay at seeing, what to
them, was the best part of their contribu-
tions. left out and the surgeons knife Is not
used with greater reluctance than is the
editors blue pencil upon certain letters
that are among the weekly contributions
to the TRArsoR1 Prs budget of news. To all
such We say come earlier, and You'll fare
better. but il you cant come early come any;
how. but don't scold If We .cut'' you.

The public need not be surprised
of some serious collisions should
occur at various places throughout
the Union within the next few days.
For instance in Chicago on Satur-
day night a grand Republican
demonstration is to take place, and
a request from the Democratic
managers for a permit to hold a
parade on the same evening has
been refused by the Chief of Police.
This is the first time in the history
of America when such a privilege
has been denied. The Democrats
declare they will hold their parade
and if they undertake it there may
be trouble.

far favored this valley have infus-

Thousands of acres are being seed

The present campaign has evolv-
ed many queer idiosyncracies Of
human nature. Tt has demonstrate
ed that men are not always what
they seem and even things are not
what they are usually supposed to
he. Not since the days of 1860
has there been such general up
heaval of sentiment and so general
sliding along the slippery political
paths. Well. after next Tuesday
people will resume their normal
condition.
