liar reductions of the visible supply will
bring the wheat trade to a far better
condition than it has known since the
goat increase in the Indian crop and
Indian exports began to alarm Ameri-

there is no increase worth mentioning
in the yield of any Of the leading wheat
producing countries. except the Argen-

All things considered, the outlook for
wheat growers in the United States is
certainly encouraging. No boom Is
promised, much less in sight, but i'm
proved conditions are almost assured.

whv Business Moves slowly.

The bad effect of the election Of Grover
Cleveland and the free trade Congress
was felt in a single month after the cleo
tion because the merchants stopped or
dering from the home manufacturers IN
the expectation of getting cheap goods
from abroad under a low tariff. The good
effect of the election of Mckinley and
the nrotection Congress cannot be felt as
promptly aswas the bad effect of the cleo
tion of Cleveland. because those same
merchants are still buying goods abroad
in enormous quantities, and will prona-'
bly have years supply in hand before
the new law gets into effect. This ac-
counts for the delay in activity among
our manufacturers and for the delay IN
the business revival which will surely
follow the resumption of business Dy

The present head OF the Agricultural
Department is an interesting man and
has history filled with interesting expe-
riences. Tall, slender, gray, rugged in
appearance, with a Scotch accent which
has clung to him since his arrival in this
country in childhood, he is typical rep
resentatiye of what sturdy integrity and
unbending will can: accomplish. There
are so many interesting things to be said
of ''Tama Jim,"e who gets this title be-
cause his home in, Iowa was in Tama
County, and its became necessary to in
some way identify him as against an
other James Wilson in his own State. that
it is difficult to know just where to begin
and where TO end in writing of him. The
Washington Star, however, in lengthy
article published a few days ago, selects
a number of unique features in his history
and some equally interesting chats with
Mr.. Wilson.
As member of Congress, this Iowa
farmer performed an act of f5abnegation,
of renunciation, every whit .as knightly
and heroic as the inspired, inspiring self
ishness and nerve of the grimy man in
dungarees who "held her nose agin the
bank till the last galoot". got. ashore. 1t

Ex-President Is Reminded of His Own

Ex-President Is Remi inded of His Own
Party's Delay in Tariff LIE gistation.
Somebody with good memory has tax
en- occasion to remind ex-President Cleve-
land and the public who read his scold at
the Republican party because of it's
promptness in carrying out it's pledges
with reference to tariff legislation, of the
terrible experience of the people of the
United States during the eighteen months
in which his own party delayed it's tariff
legislation. This reminder was brought
forth by Mr.. Cleveland's New York
speech, in which he criticised the Republi-
can leaders for tneir .'hot haste in TAX
ing up tariff legislation. The eighteen
months which elapsed between Mr.. Cleve-
lands Inauguration in 1893 and the enact
ment of his free trade tariff law included
more than &c, 200 failures. with liabilities
aggregating more than 500 million dollars;
the closing down of over 800 banks: the
appointment of receivers for about forty
railroads. whose indebtedness amounted
to billion and a half dollars. and strikes
and lockouts costing the workingmen en-
gagged 40 million dollars in wages lost
The total record of the eighteen months
includes strikes in New York and Michi-
gan in March. 1893: strikes in Chica go
in April: strikes and bank failures in Hi
nois and Ohio In May; runs on savings
banks in Western States in June; suspen-
sion of work in mines and numerous bank
failures throughout the West in July: fail
ures in New York and Chicago and small
er cities, followed by riots in New York,

on the "Big Four" and consequent riots
in September; railroad strike in Alabama
and necessity of troops to suppress it in
October: strikes on the Lehigh Valley
road and in Connecticut factories in No

Come Sensible suggestions, Even il
They TO Come from the East.
The common cry from the various Dem
ocrats floating around in cold and muddy
water since the flood of November. that
may be placed in language easily compre-
hended. is as follows:
Look here, you fellows have promised
the country good times. general prosper
ity, all that sort of thing, plenty of good
money. if Mckinley should be elected:
now. where is the money to come from
and how do You expect to get your good
times? There are just about five million
farmers watching you, and if you cannot
do something for them. you are gone.
Can't you see it already!"
In this connection it is customary to ask
the questions. What is it precisely the
farmers desire and expect? What would
satisfy them? You warn US that they are
revolutionists except on conditi0ns-de-
fine the conditions.
And the answer is that the farmers
have not been making anything and they
want more money. and mean to have it
from one party if not from another. Ii
the Republicans DO not give them aid. the
farmers will turn the whole Government
over to the Populist Democratic party.
and that is just what is in the wind now!
AS for the farmers of America. they
will have to remember that they have not
the monopoly of grain and meat produc-
tion-that the vast wheat fields of Argen-
tina. India. southern Russia, Hungary
and the Dakotas. are plowed and sown
and reaped by machinery, so that wheat
is grown at less expense than in any
former age. because there is less labor
needed TO till the ground. More than that,

so that golden butter goes with white

How are the farmers to be compensat-
ed? There is one sure way. 1t Is the es-
tahlishment of home markets through the
diversity of industries. We cannot better

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, July 6.-The intention Of
security holders, clearly indicated by the
tone Of to-day's market for stocks, was
to await further development in the gen.
eral business situation before dealing in
the market. Buyers were unwilling to
offer higher prices than those at which
the market closed Saturday. Although
the lower bids invited some offerings
which were quite large for some stocks,
there was no heavy pressure to sell, the
majority Of holders apparently being as
unwilling to sell at the decline as were
buyers to bid higher. The market was
in consequence dull throughout, some
departments being quite lethargic. The
dullness was less marked in the leading
Granger and Industrial stocks. st. Paul
and Burlington alone absorbed about one
third of the total dealings, total which
fell to 10000 shares. The days trading
was clear enough indication that the
|heaviness of Friday and Saturday last,
was not merely due to hesitancy on ac-
count of the approaching holiday, but to
actual reaction in the market. Most trad
ers would give as a reason for their dis
Inclination to buy that they are convinced
prices have advanced as far as is war
ranted by the general outlook for busl-
ness. The bears also find the labor
troubles in the bituminous coal indus
try an effective weapon. The lower prices
for American securities in London were
said to be due to the reports Of the soft
coal strike cabled from this side and the
London prices affected values here SYM
Ipathetcally quite sharply in some cases.
The fact that the consideration Of the
| tariff bill has reached to only few re-
naming items gives rise to the flood Of
surmises usual to such q stage in i'm
pOrtant legislation as to irreconcilable
differences on these items and the pos
sible failure of the bill. These surmises
were made the most Of by the bears to-
day. Later reports of the adjustment of
some Of the differences on the tariff bill
| items and published assertions as to the
lessoned dimensions of the strike COM
pared with earlier reports were influences
in bringing about a rally in the market.
The rally did not wipe out the earlier
declines entirely, but it left the net losses
generally small. The extreme loss in the
leading shares generally equalled or ex-
ceeded point. Sugar fully recovered and
gained N net and Lead showed a frac-
tional net gain. New Jersey Central de-
clined 2 points, bat recovered all but a
fraction. Louisville and Nashville closed
point off, Bay State Gas was strong
all day and closed 15s higher. Minneapo1,
lis and st. Louis also advanced IL at the
close. Otherwise net changes show frac-
tional losses in the active list.
The total sale Of stocks for the day
amounted to 1901 shares, including
American Sugar Refinery, 1880; Bur-
lington and Quincy, 17,4OO; Chicago Gas
