from abroad of wheat offers cabled from

neaf the end of the session here the
quantity taken was reported to q boat

A general desire to let loose scalping
lines of wheat characterized the trading
in the last half hour and prices broke

yator people delivered after change not

last fall the Republicans gbid


Last fall the Republicans ehid
that the only way to bring good
times to the farmer was. not TO
open the mints but, to open the
mills and in that way make q home
market for the farmers products.
They did not say anything about
a foreign market, but said a home
market was the best market in the
world. And, they said, the way to
make this home market was to re-
store the Mckinley bill. Well,
they more than restored it when.
they passed the Dingley bill. But
did that make a demand for the
products of the farmP Did the
rise in the price of wheat come
from a home demand? No. 1t
came from foreign demand, and
the price is fixed by a foreign
market. And the Republicans
admit it, and yet they claim the
glory. But when they admit that
the increased price comes from the
foreign demand, they also admit
that it is not due to the Dingley
bill, for the Dingley bill was not
passed to make a foreign but a
home market. The Republicans
have some very pretty theories,
but unfortunately, for them, they
are too much like air ships, they
fail to work.

What Isl YOUR Thfnk2

EDITOR REGISTER: We observe
that the young men of today are
about the same as of former days,
looking for some place to amuse
themselves, especially of evenings.
That is certainly all right The
question is where shall they go.
We notice some are going to places
that their parents would much pre-
fer they would not go. Now we
wish to call attention to the fact
that we believe it is possible to
find place that the young men as
well as older ones may safely aud
profitable go to spend their even
ings and leisure hours. We OBJ
serve the old Presbyterian church
is now held by the Presbyterian
board of church erection. Now is
it not possible to. rent this build
ing and put it in suitable condi-
ton; stock it with proper reading
material and means for amusement
of the proper character and there
by open a way to proftably spend
their evenings. and rel, 20 parents
and guardians of the young of a
great deal of anxiety.
Now let this matter be taken up
by our people and let the christian
people especially give this their
prompt attention, and let steps be
taken in this matter in which this
matter will speedily assume bust
ness shape. and if practicable let the
good work begin at once.
Yours citizen and a parent.

To the Circus.

The great Barnum & Bailey Cir
Gus is to exhibit in Huntington,
Sept. 81, and for the notable occa-
sion all railroads will make spec
ial low round trip ticket, so all
those who desire to witness the
Greatest Show on Earth can do SO
at small expense. The Barnum &
Bailey Circus this year, while al
ways the best and biggest in the
past, is now conceded to be the
most incompatible exhibition in
the entire world. Nothing has eY-
er, or will ever approach it, for the
genuine merit of its circus perform
ance, the size and completeness of
its menagerie and the wonderful
display of its gorgeous equipment.
The shows require sixty big rail
road cars for its transportation, en-
ploys 700 people and possesses over
400 horses and half a hundred
cages of rare animals. Its daily ex-
penses are over $1,000, and it an
nually instructs and entertains
several million of patrons. 1t is
the big show of the universe and
one of the largest enterprises in
the entire world. 1t will be a great
day for this vicinity, and doubtless
large crowd will avail themselves
of the low rate and attend the per-
Torrance from this place.

w. p. AtwelI, commercial agent
OF the United States at Robiax.
France, sends to the State Depart
ment report on the short wheat
crop in France. He says the crop
in France, and in fact, in all Eu-
rope has fallen much below the
average, and that it is estimated
that the United States and Canada
viii be called upon to export from
100000 to 100000 bushels
more than they exported to Europe
last year. France will require
about 100000 to meet the de-
fciency in that country.
Consul Heenan, at Odessa, Rus
STA, has made quite an extensive
report to the State Department
concerning the failure of the crops
in Russia.
In many districts, it has been
the wettest season ever known, and
grain has been destroyed by both
ain and hail. Much of the grain
was not worth the expense of bind
ing. The wheat received at Odes-
sa, is of very inferior quality.
The report predicts that little
wheat will be exported from Rus
STA during the season 1878. as
there is little available for that
purpose, the old stock being prac-
tically exhausted and the new crop
little more than sufficient for the
home demand. The failure of the
wheat crop in Austria. Hungary,
Roumania, and Bulgaria, Consul
Heenan continues, has brought
buyers from those countries into
Russia, and wheat which would
ordinarily leave Odessa by steamers
is destined to go by rail from the
interior into the countries named.
