A Great Grain and Cattle Market.

IN 1886 Kansas raised 30 million bushels
OF wheat, Nebraska 19 million. and Okla
homa million. In 1897 Kansas has so
million bushels of wheat, Nebraska 80
million, and Oklahoma 20 million. In
1896 the farmers sold their wheat for 40
cents bushel. In 1897 the farmers are
selling their wheat close tc the dollar
mark. In this territory alone the differ
ence IN crop and price means difference
OF about Is million dollars in the income
OF the farmers, or as much as the entire
cotton crop brings to the Texas planters.
IN 1896 this same territory produced 555
mliilon bushels OF corn, and sold it for II
cents a bushel. This year it will produce
600 million bushels, and will sell it for d
cents or more. In 1896 5, Al 246 head of
live stock, worth 1O4 million dollars. pass
ed through the Kansas City stock-yards,
In 1897 t million head, worth $50 million
dollars, will be handled there Cattle are
twenty per cent. higher this year, hogs
thirty per cent, and sheep about the same
The great demand is for stock cattle to re-
stock depleted ranges, and for thin cattle
or feeders, to eat the great corn crop of
this famed section. The prices now being
pad tor feeders indicate continuation
OF hlgh prices for beef cattle for at least
three years to come. Wheat, corn and
cattle are not the only things being sold at
a handsome profit from this area The
Kansas Valley is noted for its potatoes
Potatoes are plentiful in the Kansas Valley
and scarce elsewhere, hence three times as
much is being paid for them this year as
last. August 2 there stood in the railroad
yards of Chicago 100 car loads of potatoes
from the Kansas Valley, for which so
cents bushel had been paid. Apples,
peaches, and other fruits are likewise
plentiful here and scarce elsewhere. One
man near Atchison, Kansas, sold his apple
crop from 135 acres for S14, 600, the apples
to be picked by the buyer. Just south of
Kansas City, Missouri, the owner of 600
acres Of apple-trees has reckoned his net
profits for the season at $35, 900; and so on
the story goes from farm to orchard and
to cattle ranch. Nowhere in all this im-
mense area so favored by fortune can a
man be found who does not feel the ben
etits and is not profting thereby. 1t may
be said without fear Of dispute, that here
exists an agricultural condition the like of
which cannot be found elsewhere in the
world. The high priced grain is block
aiding railroad traffic, cattle buyers are
securing the country for herds which they
cannot find. The trees of the orchards
are breaking to the ground with the
weight of the fruit. In 1896, during the
week ending August 20, Kansas City paid
the people of this section s., ,0l6, 600 for
the produce they brought to town. In
1897, during the week ending August 20,
Kansas City paid these same people 81, :
202, 600 for the products of their farms
which reached the Kansas City market in
those six days. OF this amount $500, 600
went to the railroads for freight, and $50, :
600 to the Kansas City brokers for COM
missions. [Harper's Weekly.

Debs is a LOafer.

In the So called labor convention at St.
Louis, Eugene v Debs declared that civil
liberty is at an end in this country. There
was nothing surprising in such declara-
ton from man who has repeatedly de-
fed the federal courts, sneered at popular
patriotism and ridiculed the Am erican
flag 1t was not surprising, either, that
he should have used this latest occasion,
brought about for the private purposes of
himself and his class, to urge the abol-
tion of the supreme court, to demand the
overthrow of Congress, to magnify the
distresses of labor, to incite the people to
rebellion, and to suggest resort to arms
if other means failed to bring about the
desired revolution. Debs is loafer and
Jail bird, and should be arrested for
vagrancy. There is too much civil liberty
in the country when such character as
Debs is allowed his liberty. Atchison,

Gives Portland a Bad Name.

At a temperance meeting held in Will
lard hall, Old Orchard, Sept. 18th, Will
liam H. Jeffery of Portland gave an
address in the interest of the Washington
ian movement. Incidentally he made
some sweeping charges regarding the non
enforcement Of the prohibitory law. He
declared that the much boasted liquor
law is not, never was and never will be,
successfully and energetically enforced.
Speaking of Portland he said: II once
heard venerable worker in the cause
say that there is practically no liquor sold
in the city of Portland. Let me say to
you, and 1 do not wish to paint the pic
ture too dark, that l candidly believe
there is as much liquor sold in Portland
per capita as in any city in this country
to-day. 1t is sold not only in open de-
fiance of law, but in the most low and de-
graded places, and in the most damnable
way conceivable. 1t is of hourly occur
renee TO see children, both boys and girls,
varying in age from six to fifteen years,
with pals, cans and pitchers, going as
regularly as the busy bee between the
saloons and wretched homes"
He charged the sheriffs of York
and Cumberland counties with not
living up to their oaths of office and said
there are in these two counties more than
800 parties holding retail liquor dealers
certificates issued by the government. He
urged the need of individual work in saw
ing drinking men.
