A "YELLow DOG, YEAR.

If the suspicion has found Judgment
in the brains of some Of the more sensi-
BILE and shrewder Republicans that they
cannot 'elect a yellow dog" this year,
the awful fact does not seem to have
got into the consciousness of the ''boys"
who run the machine, and they are
clawing and scratching and scheming
to get control Of the various little ma
chimes, so that when the plums are dis
tributed they will drop into their ex-
pansive mouths. AS the conventions
thicken the evidence Of this disposition
multiplies. There is harmony in great
chunks in the party of brotherly love
and pure morality.
There is New York, the pivotal
state" Of Platt. Mr.. Plat deemed a
reorganization necessary. He and his
henchman, Lauterbach, proceeded to
make it. They made an enrolment Of
the Republicans in the CITY, None but
those on the roll could vote at the
primaries called to select delegates to
the convention. To the surprise of
many, who thought themselves Repub-
licans, they found their names not on
the rolls. They found instead the

REDUCED WHEAT ACREAGE.

week ago the G o b printed a
wheat-growing region of the state,
showing that there would be a large
decrease in the ground seeded to wheat
this year, owing to the difficulty Of
harvesting and marketing the i'm
mense crop of 1895, together with the
early freezing Of the ground last fall.
Desiring to know to what extent these
conditions are general, it made in
quiries through it's correspondents in
the wheat belt. number of whose re-
plies it publishes this morning. The
these advices is one of great impor-
lance to the farmer, and will also re-
act without doubt, upon the market
prices for wheat. In many of the
counties, and especially in the Red
River valley, it appears that only from
rs to so per cent of the usual fall plow-
ing has been done, and that the pros
pect is for reduction of wheat acre
age this season correspondingly.
Several causes contribute to this
change. The main influence is the boun-
tiful yield of last year, which kept the
farmer busted in taking care Of it until
the weather put an end to the posi-
bility of blowing. With certain soils
this is final; since only by fall plow
ing can the best results be secured. In
other localities the farmers expect to
do what they can in the spring, and
the acreage, though certainly some
what reduced, will depend upon the
date at which agricultural operations
may be resumed. In still others the
farmers have made up their minds,
independently Of all other conditions,
to diversity their crops by seeding less
land to wheat and more to fax and
barley. The sum Of all these condi-
in considerably reduced wheat
yield for the season of 1898,
even should the conditions be
as satisfactory as they were in
1885. There can no longer be any
question as to the existence Of a gen
eral condition which the G. o b e is
the first to discover and present to
the public. 1t ought to have the eff
feet Of stiffening values perceptibly for
some months to come

the evidence, and found that the i'm

that prices could be fixed by legisia-

were to wear, their cut and quality and

Every one except the guilty must be
berry of the farmers of the Northwest by
the Elevator Combine Such defense of
the weak Of society is worthy work for
great newspaper. And the G l o b will earn
a place in other homes beside those of farm
ers on account of it. But may 1 suggest
that when the G o e has done accumu-
iating evidence of the robbery it then turn
its attention to finding out who the robbers
are.
1t is one Of the devices of commercial
fraud and imposition in modern times that
men hide their knayery and personal re-
sponsibility behind an impersonal name
company" etc. Will not the G ! o give
to the public the names Of the officers of
the elevator companies of the Northwest?
When that is done we shall not only know
who the robbers are, but there will be no
way so effectual to stop the robbing.
William r. Lord.
st. Paul, Jan. 81, 1885,
The information which Mr. Lord asks
for, and which the people of the North
west desire, will be forthcoming later.
The offenders against the farmer are
not confined to any restricted territory,
nor to the management Of one elevator
company. This gigantic conspiracy to
rob the people has wide ramifications.

the story is still only a little Of it told.
The letter which we printed yesterday,
showing how the buyer at the country
elevator is practically compelled to de-
press grades; make excessive dockage
and spread prices, under penalty Of his
own disgrace, has astonished and
shocked this community profoundly.
The state of Minnesota and the whole
Northwest calls for the punishment Of
the rascals who are responsible for
such infamies, and for the adoption of
a remedy that will make their repeti-
ton forever impossible. To all of this
the G. 10 b e will throw wide it's col
umns and lend the weight of all the
influence that it possesses. Enough
has been made public already to arouse
the public with an Indignation seldom
felt, and never more justly than in this
case. Before we have done with them,
all who are concerned in this business,
unless they shall be able to cover their
tracks more successfully than we
think, will have their place upon the
pillory.

THE DIFFERENCE.

Last week the National Manufacture
ers' association met in Chicago, and.
among other matters, formulated a de-
mand, Or set Of demands on congress
for legislation. They asked that the
tariff be raised high enough to insure
them the home market. Then they
wanted congress TO- procure the re-
duction Of foreign tariffs on imports
from this country, so that they could
have those markets, too. Then followed
lot Of secondary demands, each and
all of them, however, intended to
work some especial advantage for
those superannuated pets Of the nation;
for whom all other men live and toll
In their proceedings was there any
recognition OF the fact that there are
other people in this country to whom
is guaranteed an equal right to life,
liberty and the pursuit Of happiness.

There is a marked difference in the
spirit, the animus, of these two ma

spirit of greed and selfishness; the
other the broader spirit that commerce
and its relations with men inculcate.
The one regarded government as ex-
listing only for their benefit; the other
looks on it as being a means of general
and common good. In their Endorsement
OF the financial policy Of the administra-
ton, vainly commended to two con-
crosses Of opposite parties, there is a
significant hint to these presidential
candidates and ito the managers Of
parties and the builders of their plat
forms, who are all treading pussy
footed around the money question; for
these men are too intelligent to be
fooled. and are too earnest to tolerate
any equivocating.

STRUCK A sNAG.
House In IL WrnngIe Over IL Pension
BILL

WASHINGTON, Jan. J1.-The house
struck snag early in the session to-
night. a bill to pension Susan b.
Wright who prior to her marriage to
Artemus Wright had been the widow
of James w. Wells, Company |, Tenth
regiment, N. Y. V. c., met with opposi-
ton on both sides of the house. Gen
Curtis, of New York, was in charge Of
the bill and refused to Withdraw it,
The result was that it went to q vote,
and Mr.. Miles Oem., Md made the
point OF no quorum. II am surprised
that member of the invalid pension
committee should make the point Of
no quorum, said Mr.. Picker Rep., s.
d., chairman of that committee.
You may be surprised very often"
replied Mr. Miles, Eat what consider a
proper exercise of moral courage"
A call of the house followed, and the
roll call showed exactly 100 members
present-a quorum in the committee
on the whole under the present rules
Thereupon the count was challenged
by Mr.. Miles, who claimed that some
one had answered to the name of Mr..
Fitzgerald, Of Massachusetts, who is i'll
in Nashville.
You have no right to challenge the
count" cried Mr.. Hardy (Rep., Ind)
we have some rights here" retorted
MIR. Miles. The situation was becom-
ing exciting when it was explained
that Mr.. Fisher Rep., N. " had an
swered to Mr.. Fitzgerald's name by
mistake.
Another vote and another call of
the house followed; quorum appear
ing and then disappearing Several
Democrats dissolved into the cloak
room each time a vote was taken
but Mr.. Hepburn Rep., Io), who was
in the chair. finally counted a quorum
and the bill was laid aside with a ia
vorable recommendation. After some
further filibustering the house adj

they claim, were added fraudulently
to the rolls. They saw Tammany ward
heelers coming into the primaries and
voting on these names. More than
that, they found themselves beaten out
Of sight by these methods. They are
indignant. They are protesting vigor-
ously. The Tribune fairly bubbles
with their virtuous protests. They hold
mass meetings and roast Plat to
rich brown. And Mr. Plat cynically
smiles and wants to know what they
are going to do about it. And why
shouldn't he? Wasn't he crowned by
the last convention and approved at
the polls? Did hot he and his meth
DDS rescue the state from the unspeak-
able Democrats? What is an anoint-
ed boss for If it is not to run things
as ne, in his. wisdom and own sweet
will, decides?
And then there is that beautiful lit
down in Louisiana for some weeks, Gull
minating in the state convention. Reed
and Mckinley, Kellogg and Warmoth,
pulling, hauling, biting, buying and
selling, and brotherly love as thick as
the fog in which the st. Paul ran her
nose onto Jersey sand banks. And
the truthful chronicler Of their pro-
ceedings in convention tells us that
excitement reached such a height that
the chairman of the convention was
tumbled out of his chair. and that
delegates were knocked down and
trampled under foot, and the utmost
confusion reigned Cocksure are all
these fellows that the yellow dog is
winner this year, and that all that is
needed is for them to secure the NOM
nation Of their own especial yellow
dog. Then over in Milwaukee they are
cultivating harmony and getting
beautiful growth. So insistent are the
leaders on having harmony that they
quiet the obstreperous with knives and
bludgeons it being found that break
ing heads is conducive to peace and
order. And the ball is just opening.
State after state is to be heard from
yet. The opening is suspicious. The
yellow dog campaign promises to be
one of the liveIiest for years Hurrah
for the Yellow Dog and Harmony!

congressman Confne themselves to
Routine business


WASHINGTON, Jan. 31-The house
today confined itself to routine bust
ness. Most of the session was devoted
to the District Of Columbia appropria-
ton bill. The regular attempt was
made to have all the expenses of the
district government paid by the dis
tr1ct, but the motion made by De Ar
mond Oem., MOI to effect this was
ruled out on a point of order The
district bill carries SPIT $50, 1858, 423
less than the sum appropriated for the
current fiscal year. 1t was expected
that A. j. ROsenthal, who contested
Miles Crowley's seat from the Tenth
Texas, would address the house today
In support of his claim, but he waived
the privilege accorded him, and the
resolution of the committee confirming
Mr.. Crowley's title to his seat was
adopted. Bills were passed to amend
section 3,255 Of the revised statutes
regarding exemptions allowed distil-
lers OF fruit brandies so as to extend
the provisions of that section to dis
tillers of brandies from pears, pine
apples, oranges and berries; to au-
tho11ze the president to appoint John
