Wheat has risen because the
foreign crop has been exceedingly
short. Bimetallists contend that
the law Of supplv and demand is
universal. Thev apply il not only
to money. but to bullion. both
gold and silver. to wheat and to
every other article of value. They
contend that the exchangeable
value of both mony and merchan

which affects either the demand

When government official points
out the advantage accruing to
the country from the fact that
the farmers have several hundred
millions OF additional money to
spend In paying debts and buying
merchandise he strengthens the
position taken by bimetallists.
If the rise in wheat will enable
the farmers to pay their interest
more promptly and have money
left to buy merchandise, how
much greater would be the gener-
al benefit if the rise extended to
all agricultural products.
Political Effect Of tho Rise.
In calculating the political eff
feet of a rise in wheat it must be
remembered that many farmers
were threatened with foreclosure
during the last campaign and
that a considerable part of the
money received for wheat will be
employed in paying off mortgages.
Thus intimidation will be some
what restricted, but the demand
for merchandise will be less than
it would be under ordinary cir
cumstances. The reasons given
ahove for believing that bimet.
allists will find discouragement
in present conditions are the
same which have been given by
other advocates of bimetallism.
Those who advocate free coinage
may be wrong, but they agree
upon the principles which under
lie the money question, and they
arc not likely to be frightened
away from their position by events
which enforce their arguments.
The law Of supply and demand
explains the fall in silver as we'll
as the rise in wheat. To what ex.
tent the fall in silver may have
been accelerated by speculation
In silver bullion | cannot say. 1t
would be possible for the bears to
run the price Of silver down to
some extent, just as they
sometimes lower the price Of
grain, and 1T would be much
easier to manipulate the silver
market because both the demand
and supply are more limited than
the demand for or supply Of
grain; but, without considering
the effect of speculation, both leg
islation and circumstances have
tended to lessen the price of sill
yer.
The action of Japan has lesson
ed the demand for silver, and the
United States has not vet made
sufficient progress towards inter
national bimetallsm to strength.
en- the market. Added TO this the
short wheat crop in silver-using
countries has lessened the de.
mand for silver for the purchase
of wheat.
Wheat and silver Have Parted
Company.
For many years the price of
wheat kept company with the
price of silver. | do not mean to
say that the fluctuations were al.
ways simultaneous,but they were
measurably so. This relation be-
tween silver and wheat was COM

Is it not possible that the pleas
ure experienced from the rise
in wheat will lead farmers to de-
sire an Increase in the price of
other farm products? When they
learn the advantages of restored
prices will they not seek some
more durable means of of sus-
tanning prices than a drought or
famine? The department Off
call has also contributed to our
cause by emphasizing the bene-
fits received by other Industries
from the farmers prosperity.

Money Coming from EurOpc-.A
Good Sign.

A large part Of this money
comes from abroad. Wheat is
not only higher, but more of it
is being exported. If we had
enough money in this country, an
increase in the volume would be
an injury.
If an increase in the volume Of
money, secured by the exporta-
ton Of higher wheat. gives cause
for rejoicing, is it not evidence
that we now have an insufficient
quantity?
If the farmers are constantly
reminded of the large increase in
the value Of this years crop, will
they not be able to calculate
their loss the more easily whom
wheat goes down.

when Washington E. Conner, chair
mar of the board Of directors OF the
Wheeling & Lake Erie, was asked
what ground there was for the talk OF
a receiver for the company, he said:
mo application has been made for a

so doing. RumorS OF this kind have
been in circulation for eighteen months
past and have always emanated from

Just the purpose which the present one
seeks to bring about. namely, TO injufe

force a receivership.

The hypnotists still continue to draw
large houses at the Grand Opera House
and with each succeeding performance
the sages and their clever assistants
give better satisfaction. The entertain
ment is one OF the clean cut and inter-
esting kind OF which one never grows
tired and besides being scientific It Is
very amusing. Last nights programme
was entirely different from that OF the
previous evening and was the best yet
given The colored gentleman's skirt
dance, the balloon ascension and other
features kept the large audience In
roar OF laughter. George Dey. the man
who has been enjoying hypnotic sleep

A late number of Blunsey's Magazine
has a laughable article about the turkey
dinner that the poor actors are obliged

Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Children ought to be notified about
little Mandy Gates, who is literally
stuffed with turkey, cranberry sauce
and mlnce pie every night in the week
and twice on Saturday," 1t must be
an awful thing to be obliged TO eat such
dellcacies when one has no appetite for
them. There are some actors now play
ing in Shore Acres" that have set down
10 this Thanksgiving feast over one
Thousand times. No wonder they hate
the sight OF roast turkey. AS yet Mr..
