This was sign of the times not seen
by many of our farmers. They scarce
ly realized that, borne on the current
of modern progress, the total wheat
supply was being enormously increased
without any adjustment to the demand.
While the worlds supply of wheat in
creased between 1889 and 1894 by 429,
900, 900 bushels, the demand for wheat
was increasing annually by only H.,
GOO, 900 to 16,0o0,0 600 bushels. Here is the
full and complete explanation Of the
fall in the price of wheat.
The United States, moreover, was
expanding it's acreage of wheat with
out a suspicion of the extraordinary
supplies from abroad. In 1873, our
wheat product was under 300, 600, 900
bushels; in 1891 it was Gil, 900 BUSH
els. OF course, any article would fall
IN price under such conditions. Neither
gold nor silver had anything to do with
it. 1t is arrant folly to say it has.
Monetary legislation will not change
the fact that we produce more wheat
than we consume, and are dependent
on foreign markets for 41.47 per cent of
our crops QS94); while of corn we ex-
port only All per cent of our product.
It is bad enough to be sick without
having the wrong drug given one by
quack physician. 1t was bad enough
for the farmer to suffer from the col
lapse Of our speculation, aggravated by
q fall in prices, for world-reasons quite
beyond his control, without having
specious remedy like free coinage of
silver offered him. the very first effect
Of which would be to throw the farmer
and all the rest of the country into
alarming commissions. The farmer
should be wiser than to let the silver
owner lead him by the nose to his own
injury, even if to the advantage of
silver. The coinage of all the silver in
the wer1d-or of all the copper and
brass In the universe-would not stop
Argentina and Australia from export
ing wheat
It is said, however, that under the
geld standard the prices of wheat and
cotton have gone down; therefore. aban-
don the gold standard and coin more
money" in the form of 52-cent dollars.
But we have just shown that the fall
in price of wheat was due to an UNI
precedented increase Of supplies. Coin
ing silver will not shut off foreign
wheat To talk of free coinage of sill
yer as means or regulating the value
of wheat is puerile 1t is the more SO,
ff we consider still another fact. Other
agricultural products, such as corn,
oats and mess pork, have not fallen in
price since 1873 In 1894, corn was 10
per cent higher in prizes than in 1879;
while oats were exactly the same in
price in those two years. In 1893, mess
pork was actually 20 per cent higher
than in 1873. Now il 1T be claimed that
the gold standard since 1878 has lower
ed the price of wheat, In equal fairness
II must be admitted that the gold stand
ard has kept up the price of corn, oats.
and pork. OF course, both of these
things cannot follow from the same
cause, and 1t shows how falIacious the
reasoning Is which attributes the
lowest price of wheat to the action
Of the gold standard 1t Is the more
absurd TO suggest that solution when
the facts furnish abundant reasons

mems actions be absolutely free, we
believe that Gen. Palmer would be the
next president of the United States. AS
it is, the voters but hold themselves
in reserve until the one issue that has
absorbed all the rest is settled, and
after that they will be at liberty to go
where their inclinations lead them.
The next time that their suffrages are
asked they will be given to the candi-
dates standing on the Indianapolis
platform with a unaninimity as great
and glorious as that which is to char
acterize this year their rebuke of re-
pudiation and disorder.

The Trouble I'm Regard to the sssIid-
night Bell"

Duncan B. Harrison said last even
ing regarding the disagreement with
Mr.. Lift on the matter of the produc-
ton of THE Midnight Bell' that the
public had got wrong impression.
Mr.. Harrison said the company was
booked to come to st. Paul and Min
neapolis eight months ago and he
understood the rates to be charged
were the same as at the Metropolitan
in the two cities. He said that dur
ing their Chicago engagement he
learned that the prices We're to be the
same as charged at the Grand and
Bijou for other companies, whereupon
he cancelled the engagement because,
as the company was running at an ex-
-pense Of over $1,000 week, It could
not afford to come here. AT later
date Mr.. Lift talked the matter over
with Mfr. Hoyt and Mr.. Mckee, and the
trouble was adjusted by the former
guaranteeing certain amount for the
two weeks in the twin cities.

Somebody must have known how to
farm profitably in order to make such
showing. But, more than all this,
farmers have been saving. Iowa has few
cities, and is largely peep1ed by far
ners or those closely dependent upon
them; and yet the deposits in the Iowa
savings banks increased from 1885,
1877 in 1890 to $28, 227, S41 In 1895.
Moreover, in states where soils are
suitable, and farming properly con-
Quoted, farms have increased in value.
