WEEKLY CROP REPORT.
Seattle, Wash, Sept. %, 1896.

Seattle, Wash, Sept. ", 1896.
Shortening days, lower tempera-
ture, light frosts, maturing pro-
ducts-all these tell us that the
crop season of 1896 is nearly at its
close. Some late vegetables and
fruits remain to be gathered, and
in some sections threshing of grain
will continue for two or three
weeks. The past week was, in
general, favorable for farming pur-
suits. The drought was effectually
broken on the night of the 18th
and 18th by general rain all over
the state, which in some localities
was quite heavy. In the Sound
country it measured nearly an inch.
Late vegetables and pastures le-
ceived the greatest benefit; thresh-
ing was delayed. In low lands
there was light frost on the 18th
and 10th, but not destructive as a
rule. Hop picking is the leading
employment at present in the we'll
known hop sections; hop raising,
however, has been largely aban-
doned as improbable. The ground
has been put in fine condition for
fall blowing and the fact is being
taken advantage of in many local
tiles.

BUT II WAY

To Defeat the Chicago Ncrcv-Ehy Er-
Gov. Waller will Vote mr McIlIulry.
New London. Conn, special in New
York World: Former Governor Waller
(Dem.) had this to say to-day In regard
to the indianapolis ticket and the best
mOthod OF insuring the defeat Of Bryan:
The third ticket was put In nom
inatiOn by as representative n conven
ton Of Democrats rs has ever been held
In the history OF the party, and the del
cgutes had no motive for coming to-
gether from nearly every state In the
Union except Il preserve the ancient
faith of the Democracy and the honor
and credit OF their country a; home and
abroad.
"But We all know, as did the convcn-
ton. that the SUCCESS OF the third ticket
Is not even n remote possibility. Il was
put In nomination TO aid In the defeat
OF the POpullste, and directly and In
directly this 1t Will do.
But there arc Democrats like Hon. Z.
J. Phelps and Hon. William D. Bishop
who believe that there are two ways Of
supporting the principles OF the third
ticket. one by voting for 1t and the
other by voting for the Mckinley ticket.
and who think the latter the more self
sacrificing, the more effective and the
better way, and ! agree With them.
II have In public speech said that II I
could have my way In the struggle
against those who are nssa!linE the ma:
TONS credit and honor | would defeat
them by the election Of the Mckinley
ticket by 80 unprecedented aud over
whclmIng n majority that McKinlcy's
success would have no pnrtistn slEniil-
canoe. and have not changed my mind,
although my hope has grown stronger.
~ am for the defeat, the utter defcnt
OF the Chicago usurpers and their Popn-
list allies, and there Is only II sure
way of doinB 1t and want To be sure"

Mr.. Bryan In his labor dry speech
said: Let me quote to you what that

said on this subject: Give mo neither
poverty nor riches; feed me with food
convenient for me. lest | be evil md de-

name OF my God In vaiu.'" The speak

an is certainly familiar enough with

The Government stump.

The Register asks the question as
for the stamp: What gives our paper
and silver dollars value to-day but the
government stnmp?" a paper dollar Is
n promise TO pay. and the people believe
that the government Will not dishonor
IT. obligations. This Is what gives the
paper dollar Its value to-day. The gov
crnment maintains the silver dollar ut
4 parity with all others nf It's dollars.
which 1t Is able TO do by limiting the
number OF them coined. among other
things. The free silver proposition In
cludes the unlimited stamping Of silver
into silver dollars. Every Intelligent
person understands the difference be-
tween limited and unlimited In money
matters, particularly In matters affect
Ing credit. The silver dollar coined free
would be In no sense n promise to pay
anything.
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1896-09-19

that any idea OF purchase Is implied In
the proposition, The silver in the silver
dollars that have been coined since 1870
was bought BY the treasury department
In the open market, and the doialrs were
coined on government account,
The silver that would be coined Into
dollars under free coinage would merely
DO stamped by the government as wheat
Is ground Into flour for tho owner, tho
only difference being TINT the owner
must pay for having his wheat ground
ind tho owner of silver would not pay
for having his silver mlnted. II the
government were buying silver at 81 20
nm ounce and would take all that should
be offered IL Il, Of course tho price would
be fixed at TINT figure,
Since the government. under free cnln-
age, would not buy a single ounce. tho
silver In the silver dollar MS well us out
OF II would have to take Its own chances
anu would be worth tho market price Of
silvor-no more and no less.

In June last-lcss than three months
aEo-the Democrats OF New York met In
state convention aud, having In View
the scheme to press upon the Democratic
national convention u FREQ silver propo-
sltion, planted themselves an as sound n

Now q body OF men calling themselves
Democrats have got together In another
New York state convention, swallowed
what they said In June last, and endorse
free silver and everything else that Is in
the Rryan platform, II the free silver
proposition In juno last was one to be
resisted with the fervor OF both plrtl-
sanshsp and patriotism by Democrats
everywhere" and IL Il then threatened
untold evils to our nations commerce
and Industry" Ia 1t less threatening now,
and should II be any less resisted with
fervor and patriotism by Democrats
everywherc2
There are two reasons for this flop,
One Is that the New York state machine
feels that 1t must train with the new
national machine to call Itself Demo-
cratic; and the other reason is that the
Democrats of character aud standing in
that state who are not supporting the
Chicago scheme but who are doing all
they can to defeat 1t. remained away
from this later state convention and
will have nothing TO do with It or Its
work,
The result will be that these Demo-
Gratis who have Topped to the Bryan
side will be crushed with him, und those
Democrats who will help to do the
crushing will be on top In the great state
OF New York.

TIE MAINE RESULT.

n Mi,tnk.!

Tie ltnnin OF sepynll Afier All
u Mistnksi
New York World, (Dem.): The re-
suit In Maine strongly emphasizes the
result In Vermont.
The first returns show 4 Republican
plurality exceeding $1,000.
This gsurpasscs the highest claims
made by Mr.. Manley OF his most en-
thusiaStIc lieutenant In advance OF the
election. 1t Is about twice the high
est conservative" estimate made. II Is
1900 ahead OF the largest plurality
ever given 10 n party In the state
since 49,. II Is about 10000 larger than
any plurality ever given In a preslden-
tial year. II Is more than 10000 larger
than the plurality with which any
governor ever carried the state, except
In 1884.
The Just comparison Is with 1892,
when the Republican plurality was
1879. This years plurality Is about
three and a half times as great.
Obviously the pleas OF the free silver
men have not taken hold upon the
minds of the farmers, the lumbermen,
the watermen. the ship carpenters md
the other workingmen OF Maine. OBJ
v!ously the state which In 1880 actually
elected q greenbacker. has studied
finance 10 some effect since that time.
Obviously the claim Is M-founded that
the Bryan free silver and Populist
doctrines have deeply impressed the
farmers and the workIngmen. 1t Is still
more eInphatically negatived by the
result In Maine than It was by the re-
aurns from Vermont.
Incidentally 1t may be remarked that
Mr.. Scwall's candidacy does not <eem
20 have added anything to his party's
strength In his own state. Was he af-
ter all a mistake?

Result.
New York World (Dcm.): Election ex-
pcrts In Maine figure that the Rcpubll-
car gain in the cities was 10 $40 per

publican gain was " per cent and the
Democratic loss was Al per cent. In
some surely agriculture districts the
Republican gain was about 80 per cent.
Taking the whole state W the Republi-

The flow OF gold to this country, ut
first little understood even by fnancIers.
Is seen to be 4 perfectly logical nov
ment. There has been n quIckened de-
mand abroad for our products. We
have not been buying abroad s much
az formerly and this makes a considera-
bic difference in our favor. At other
times OF late when this has happened
foreigners have settled the balance by
selling US II securities. Now they seem
to prefer to hold the securities and send
US the gold.
This change OF disposition results
from the fact that foreign confidence in
all things American has been to some
extent restored. The returns from YER
mont. and stIll moro so those from
Maine, have had n large money value
for us. In the light OF those returns and
the general reports that reached them
from this country. foreigners have con-
cluded that there IS no chance Of the
United States em%barking in any scheme
that will upset the whole financial ays-
ten OF the country and dishonor the
country's obligations.
The coming Of this gold shows one
good way to get gold into the country
10 sell abroad more than we buy there,
and 10 hold our honor unsullicd before
the world. Under the Republican policy
| OF sound money and sound tariff, honor
and confidence In US will be restored as
well as our own confidence In ourselves,
and then we shall hear no more Of
quack remedies for doctoring our flnan-
cial system.
When 0nce more Republican policy
gets well under way. the people will be
AZ work. the American people will have
the first chance In our Own markets.
and every mar will know that he Is In
no danger OF being paid for Ills work or
his commodities In a dishonest dollar.
The Register asks the Intelligencer:
Does Our nelGh5or recall. or has 1t EVER
hard from any OF It's foretathcrs. that
in the long history OF this country that
either the silver or gold dollar was worth
less than a hundred ccnts?" Yes. when
Il silver dollar as measured In gold was
worth more than Il gold dollar. the gold
dollar as measured in silver was worth
less than n hundred cents.
