slight indications exist that. In the case OF
cotton. this process Of adjustment has begun.
In 1890 the ton cotton States raised n little less
than 7,500,0 900 bales OF cotton; In 1892 they
raised 5000. 900 bales; In 1906 nearly 10000
600; and. this year, they will have raised over
100000. The crop Ia therefore increasing
less RAPIDLY than It was, and 10 coming to q
standstill. On the other hand. these same ten
cotton States, which, in 1890. raised only 300.-
100000 bushels Of Indian corn, raised In 1895
more than acc, 900. 600 bushels. Some of the
cotton growers have evidently found IL moro
profitable to raise corn than cotton and their
number may bo expected to increase. Tho
growing for the Northern market, Of fresh veg
etables and fruits. for which tho climatic condi'
tions Of the South afford superior advantages
IL also a rising Southern industry, which, In
time. may assume large proportions.
A similar suggestion may DO made In regard
to pursuits other than that Of cotton growing.
Eventually wheat growing will be confined in
this country as It 10 ~ England, to the land
best suited for It, and tho less suitable land now
devoted 10 1t will be employed In q moro profta-
bio way. The northern section Of the State OF
Now York. once famous for its wheat and its
wheat flour now produces little wheat. but
much beans, hops, garden vegetables and fruits.
The New England and the New Jersey farmers
have taken up manufacturing. and throughout
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois o like transition

which cannot DO resisted may DO evaded, as the

TRIBUTE TO CLEVELAND.
Will be Dined by the New York
Chamber of Commerce.

New York, Jan. 29.-President Cleveland,
upon leaving office, will receive hearty
thank YOU from the merchants of this
city for what he has done while occupy
ing the executive chair This will take
the form of a complimentary dinner ten
dered him by the chamber of commerce,
with the presentation of a set of resolu-
tions, and some form of souvenir to mark
the occasion.
The plan to publicly recognize Mr.
Cleveland's services has been taken up
without regard to political lines. The re-
cent stand of the president on the treaty
question with England has given a sec
ond topic on which the merchants are
almost a unit in approving Mr.. Cleveland.
and the discussion of this will be given
much attention in the after-dinner
speeches at the proposed complimentary
banquet.
The dinner will take place as soon after
March as Mr. Cleveland may set the
day. and it is proposed to make it as
representative as possible. Mr. Cleveland
is an honorary member of the chamber
He was chosen after his first term as
president. in recognition of his efforts
for civil service reform. The honor was
exceptional. Chester a. Arthur was the
only other retiring president similarly
elected to honorary membership in the
chamber. This was in recognition of his
efforts in behalf of this city, and was OF
local significance.

Washington, Jan. 29-The luscious
cranberry must be protected, accord

erS' association.
Senator Villas offered in the senate
today resolutions adopted by this as
ISOLATION declaring that the cranberry
industry is injured by the tariff i'm
posed on fruit by Canada and also by
the importation of European cranber-

The European berry has come in in
cognito under the name ingon berries,
but the Wisconsin growers declare these
to be the identical cranberries used to
make sauce for the Christmas turkey.
1t is the conviction of the Wisconsin
association that the lingon berry should
be included in the next tariff schedule
under its real name. and that it should
be made to pay its way

END OF CHEAP GAS.
The Trust Has Finally Crushed It's
Rival at Kansas City

Kansas City Mo, Jan. 29.-For near
~ year a large percentage of the peo-
pie of Kansas City have been paying
but so cents a thousand for illuminat-
ing gas.
Previously the Kansas City Gas COM
pany, branch of what is known as
the Philadelphia gas trust had enjoyed
a monopoly of the field and had exacted
$3.50 thousand Then local people
formed the Missouri Gas company and
started in to furnish gas at 81. Imme-
diately the trust put it's price down to
30 cents, did away with all charges for
meters and even furnished cooking
stoves to all who would use it's gas
The result was a tremendous increase
in its business, and the new rival COM
pany, which continued to charge 81
could get but comparatively few pat
rOns.
1t developed today that the warning
companies have got together. An APP
plication was made to the city council
for charter under which the two cor
porauons may be consolidated the
trust to absorb the weaker company. It
is proposed, however, to limit the charge
for gas to 81 a thousand, which is the
price fixed by recent city ordinance
The council deferred action on the ap-
plication.

Washington. Jan. 29-At the Nation
al Board of Trade meeting Mr.. s z.
Thurber made the report on transpor-
tation He quoted from the report of
the Interstate commerce commission to
the effect that the railroad business of
the country has suffered in the past
year as never before. From the same
source Mr.. Thurber presented
statement from witness that in 35
years experience with shipping in the
west, he had never known fair treat
ment of the farmers. They were al
ways Disseminated against in favor of
the large shippers.
There is a corn crop of $40 GOO, 900
bushels this year 1880. 1t was as
serted that when the farmers have been
compelled to sell and the crop is in the
hands of large shippers, a reduced rate
will be given and the crop viii begin to
move.
The farmer, the witness said. is made
to pay 10 cents buShel to haul corn 200
miles while the big shippers are given
a rate of cents a bushel to Chicago,
from three to four times as far.
L tell you" concluded the witness
'this is what is making anarchists west
of the Mississippi river"
