WHEAT CROP AND PRICES.

The steady rise in the price of wheat
Is followed by the growing faith that the
Ban will bring great improvement in
all kinds of business. The indications
are that wheat will go still higher, as
the shortness of the foreign crop be-
comes more fully known. The experts
estimate that Europe will require ex-
ports Of wheat amounting to 900, DOC, 900
Bushels, Of which the United States
must furnish 1915, OO0,O 600 bushels. AS a
matter Of fact we cannot furnish that
amount by 72,690,0OO bushels. Our
entire crop is now estimated at $780,
coo, 900 bushels. of which 365, 100000
bushels will be required for home con-
sumption, leaving 65,OOO,0O0 bushels Of
this years crop for export. To this, the
experts add 1901 900 bushels Of visible
supply and estimate 100000 as the
Invisible supply, making a total avail
able for export of 122,301 900, or 72,-
10000 short of actual demands.
The later news from the Northwest
is that the total crop of this year will
but slightly exceed that Of last year,
thus destroying the hope that our crop
would be so large that the ruling high
prices would doubly help the wheat far
Mers. The good fortune of the wheat
farmers, it seems therefore,.is due to the
famine in India and the disasters in
Argentina, which countries will have
practically no wheat for export, the
failing off in export from these two
countries alone being 205, 100000 bush
els. II the American crop had been
as large as was estimated two weeks
ago, the demand is so great that the
price would not have varied much from
one dollar a bushel.
Mr.. r. HI. Edmonds, in an elaborate
article in the Manufacturers Record,
Gays that the increased amount the
farmers will receive for this years wheat
crop over 1896 will reach not less than
. hundred and fifty million dollars and
may reach two hundred millions. He
is very hopeful of great prosperity and
says:
'1n every direction there are signs
of increasing business and the prom
Use of wide-reaching prosperity. At
ter the Barring failure, the low price
Of cotton started Southern farmers
TO econOmizing and to the raising
of foodstuffs at, home. Later on,
when the panic of 1893 caused such
general depression, the farmers of
all other sections commenced to
economize. Purchases Of all kinds,
agricultural implements and home
supplies were curtailed to the utmost
and great efforts were made to re-
duce all farm Indebtedness. The
result has been that for five or six
years farmers have been buying so
little that mercantile trade stag
mated everywhere, and every line
OF business necessarily s1if ,reI. But
during all this period debts Have been
gradually reduced and the farmers
of the country through this enforced
: economy have been able to get into
such shape that they owe less money
than at any time for many years.
They are now in a position to en-
JOY to the fullest the new era of
prosperity which this wonderful adj
vance in prices have inaugurated."

thoughtful editorial on the loss of power
by the South due to the retirement of

The recent death Of Senators Harris and

1t is unfortunately true that the men

Their successors-one a Democrat and
one Republican-were elected because
they had the powerful support of power

NOTES FROM TRINITY COLLEGE
Indications Are Bright for The Coming
Session-Woman's Department Will
Be Opened.

Be Opened.
Durham, N. c., Aug. 23.-(SpeciaD-
Everything at Trinity is being put in
readiness for the opening ON the 9Th of
September. The outlook is much better
than it has been.
President Kilgo is much encouraged
and speaks enthusiastically about the
work of the college. Everywhere he has
gone this summer he has met with great
enthusiasm, and says that the church
was never so s0lidifed ON it's educational
work as it is now.
Much building has been done at the
Park during the summer. Several Of
the residences have been improved by the
addition of porches, and repairs and i'm
IprOvements have been made on the Duke
building.
The contracth as been let and work be-
gun on the first Woman's home. This
will be located ON the northwest side of
the Park. and will be one of the hand
soonest boarding homes at any Southern
college. 1t will be fitted with all mod
ern conveniences, and will accommodate
twenty or twenty-five young ladies.
Among the young ladies who will enter
Trinity College at the opening, will be
Miss Moore, daughter of Rev. DIR. Moore,
of Fayetteville district, and Miss Elias,
daughter of Hon. Hope Elias, of Frank
1 lin. Miss Elias graduated in June from
Salem Academy with high honors. The
opening of Trinity to women has been
i greatly applauded, and offers to our
ambitious young women the richest OPP
portunity for higher education ever Of
fered in our State.
The School Of English at Trinity has
: created great enthusiasm among the
friends of the college. Few colleges can
boast of two such men as DR.. Few and
Prof. Minis, both of whom are employed
in the School of English.
The Faculty have so arranged the cour-
SEES of study that Senior can elect two
courses in one school, so that the next

the horses into the unknown country OF

The Folly of Strikes.

Those people who expected new
policy TO do within week enough TO
repair the devastation of three years,
and to bring back from long period OF
disaster enough of good times TO pay
for all the loss and leave a lot over for
distribution, are saying somewhat glee-
fully, where's your prosperity?" and
If serious word is uttered about wait
ing respectable time there comes the
comment s. Just look at the strikes. !"
Well, suppose we do look at them -
look at those reported in the current
news What are they for? Increases
of wages, and, where it is not for
that, it is for some silly quarrel between
rival labor organizations-the one in
New York, for instance. But the bulk
of the trouble is because few hotheads
want increase at once. They demand
that every thing shall be done on the
instant. Now it happens that this is
the only thing that can defeat good
times. If the workingmen are so short
sighted as to rush into strikes because
they are impatient, the people who
have the money to pay the wages of the
workingmen will not risk it among such
people. OF course there is always a
demand for labor. The workingmar

prevailing, as the result of an in
cident which occurred here last
Saturday night. AS the readers of
the GAZETTE are aware, the men,
bers of the legislature, were, at the
beginning of the session, prohibit
ted from using the capitol building
as free lodging house. Hitherto,
they have been in the habit OF
bringing cots with them from home
when the Legislature convened, and
put them in the capitol building
and slept there all during the ses-
sion, free of charge, of course, but
alas, the decreee went forth that
they must all find lodging else
where and a great number took
their cots out to the railroad yards
aud outskirts of the city, where
they took up their abode in box
cars and. seed houses, meanwhile
taking their lunch at the free lunch
counters in the city.
Saturday night last, the police
concluded to round up the tramps
and other hard characters who
wore hiding about in the city. and
made a general raid. Among the
