What Bradstreet's Saws.

| Senator Gear of Iowa recently remark
ed in discussion in the Senate of the
| United States that the Democratic orators
in 1896 went about the country with the
Democratic platform in one hand and
Bradstreet's Journal OF Finance in the
! other. Bradstreet's, which was favorite
authority with the people who were try
ing to convince the public that things
We're in bad way in 1896, has by its can
did statements and figures from official
reports shown business Improvement
I from month to month since the inauonra-
tion OF President Mckinley, and especial
ly since the enactment of the new tariff
law. One of the most interesting of its
| tables is that which shows the prices of va
rious articles of production and consump-
ton in New York and other markets of
the country at various dates during the
past tw years. From that able are gather
ed some statistics of special interest to
| farmers They show that, despite the as
sertion of the silver shoutels Of 1896 that
no prosperity could come to the agriculture
lists Of the country except though the free
coinage of silver, there has cen a sub
stantial advance in practically every arti-
/ Gle of farm produce. These tables show
an advance Of more than so per cent in
wool, the Boston price OF Ohio and Penn
| sylvania wool on the date OF Mr.. Bryan
nomination being Is cents, and ON Jan.
/, 1898, u cents; hops, which on July /,
1896, We're 7 cents per pound. have adj
vanced to 49, tobacco has advanced from
II to Is II; hides, from Il to 20; onions
from Sl.50 TO s.. 80 per bushel; potatoes,
from IS cents to So 90 per bushel: beans.
from 81. Is TO 81 40; wheat, from GA to 9S
cents; oats from p to IS cents per bushel;
barley, from 80 cents per bushel to A.
cents per bushel; rye, from 81 to 55 cents;
flour, from So 25 per barrel to S4 %;
sheep, from $500 per head to S4 so per
head in Chicago market; hogs (carcasses),
in the Chicago market, have advanced
from 3 rs cents per pound to 3-5; beef,
from 5 1-2 cents to : cents; lard, from
is to ) cents per pound, and so on
through the list of farm products, show
ing an advance in practically every case
between the date of the adoption of the
Chicago platform in 1896 and the begin
ming of the present calendar year. On the
other hand, large proportion of the ar
ticles which farmers must buy have, ac-
cording to the same authority, fallen off
in price, lumber falling materially III
price; wire nails dropping from 81. 50 per
key to 81. Is; cotton sheeting from 4
per yard to II; anthracite coal from
s4.25 per ton to $500; phosphate from
s5.25 per ton to $500; tin plates, from
So. IS per box to 81. s.; and other articles
required for the use of the agriculturst
showing a like reduction. With higher
prices for al! farm products and lower
prices for practically everything that the
farmer must buy, as a result of the adop-
ton of protection and the rejection of free
coinage of silver, the Democratic orators
are going to have some difficulty in per
suading the farmers to rally to their sup
port in the coming Congressional cam
pagn, in which the Chicago platform is to
be again made the basis of Democratic ap-
peals.

Land Owners and Movable Weirs.

A recent decision of the Law Court in a
Lincoln County case is Interest to shore
fisherman generally, and is as folio VS.
Della Perry ct al VS.. Fred P Carleton
ct al.
Rescript.
Haskell, j. Revised Statutes, c. 3, Sec
60, applies LIST to weirs or wharves not
built in accordance with c. of the Revis-
ed Statutes. I'd to weirs erected below
low water mark, not removed annually
3D. to such as are removed annually when
they obstruct navigation or interfere with
the rights of others.
The statute gives the land owner the
first right to erect removable weir
abreast his land, below low water mark.
When he does not exercise the right,
others may. He must either do it or let
his neighbors do it.
The defendants had maintained move
able weir abreast the plaintiffs land several
seasons prior to 1896. Early in that year
defendants began to construct their weir.
Plaintiffs procured an INDUCTION in this
cause against their doing so. They i'm
mediately removed their weir and have
not used the privilege since. Neither
does it appear that plaintiffs have done so.
II is the actual use and appropriation that
gives the land owner the benefit Of the
statute to protect his right of fishing, not
an unexercised right to the use. Equity
applies the extraordinary remedy OF in
junction only where the cause is clear.
This cause is neither clear, nor have the
plaintiffs shown any actual or threatened
injury to vested right; and, moreover,
the threatened intrusion has long since
ceased. There is no equitable ground for
relief.
Bill dismissed with costs.

Received at Court in the GrantIest of Style.
The Hon. William w. Thomas, the
new American minister to Sweden and
Norway was received by King Oscar Feb
9th in special audience for the pur-
pose of presen ting his credentials from
the President. This is the third time Mr.
Thomas has represented the United
States as minister to Stockholm, some
thing entirely unprecedented in the his
tory of the Swedish court, and the grand
reception accorded to him reflects honor
upon Mr. Thomas and upon the United
