Toey admit that The farmers may get
u few hundred million out of the rise
in wheat, with which prospect they
really express themselves as pleased,
but the whole business, they say, viii
not amount to any thing, aud the pros

will soon coll apse into nothing. Mr..

full in it. Probably not, nothing hope

THE Dollas News claims that DR..
Grants address will fail to serve any
good purposes. The News is demo-
cratic paper, but recognizing that it has
a large number of republican patrons
| we believe it has endeavored to be
| fair to those readers by publishing a
great deal of matter pertaining to the
organization in the state. For some
| time back the tone of its publications
| have looked to the 'Grant" people as
| of very ''Green-ish" tinge. To those
acquaint ted with newspaper work this
| is easily explained. The Screen"
headquarters are in Dallas. Ma jor
jO'Leary, one of the most popular news
paper men in the state, who was for
seventeen year on the News, is in
charge. The major is an enthusiast
in his work and never fails to show
up every point made for his chief
tain in the best light. Many
| things which it would not DO to
publish, but which make lasting i'm
pressious upon the craft, are shown to
| members of the News reportorial staff
If Doctor Grants headquarters were at
Dallas and the News force had been
! treated as they have by Major O'Laary
| we believe there won' 1~have been no
reason upon the part of either faction
to claim that the News had been par
| tial to the other. We do not agree with
| the News as to the result of of DR..
Grants address. We have hoped that
we might have united party in Tex
as but as New Vol has its Platt and
anti-Platt, Missouri its Filley and Ker-
factions in either party we have con-
cluded that we will lave to worry long
with Grant-Green fight for several
| years and labor to uphold the one near
est right.

STATISTICS show that yellow fever
has generally proved more fatal in
New Orleans in September than in any
other mouth, with August first in some
years and close second in all Others

for the year except when the disease
appeared as early as May. The last
epidemic began in May, 1873, aud caus-
ed 1866 deaths, while in the preceding
year it did not appear until November,
and caused but one death. 1t usually con-
Der and some years until we'll into Dec.

Mr.. BRYAN and his co-laborers last
year promised the farmers dollar b
bushel for wheat in free coinage-silver
dollars if they would onlJ pat him in
the white house. The free-colnage
dollar is now worth 40 cents. As the
farmers are now getting in the neigh
borhood of 100 cents for their wheat In
money good the world over, they have
little to regret at their failure 10 &C
