FRIDAY, OCTOBER II. 1898.
THE WHEAT PROSPERITY.

Those who a few months ago
were shouting prosperity on the
strength of ''dollar wheat for the
farmer, are still insisting that pros
perity abounds, although their tone
is a trife more subdued, and sdollar
wheat" does not appear in the re-
frain. But then we must not be
captious over little things. So long
as we have prosperity what differ
ence does it make whether we have
"dollar wheat" or '.fifty-cent
wheat?"
AT the present time wheat is
worth g. Is to S. cents on the
western according to location
Cotton has made a new low

five cents. With wool. corn and
oats also edging toward the low
record mark, the agriculturists who
constitute nearly half of our in
dustrial population may well inquire
as to the real nature of the prosper
ity which abounds and who has it.
The fact is that while there has
been rather more business activity
lately than during the depression of
IS945-6-7, there has been no
material advance in prices, except
where famine conditions in other
countries, coupled with speculation,
temporarily raised the prices of
breadstuffs, and combines have kept
up the prices of some other things.
But such influences always have
serious offsets, and we have had no
real prosperity.

THEY GIVE UP THE FIGHT.

The following article is clipped
verbatim from the Plymouth Even
ing News, campaign sheet which
has been issuing from the Republi-
can office;
"That the Democrat party will
be successful this fall, and particu-
larly in this county, there does not
seem to be the least doubt. Parties
who are in the habit of reading the
signs of the times will readily see
that this is fact beyond question
and the Republicans might as well
hang their harps on the willow
trees as to be spending their time
and money hunting votes"
This startling announcement, com
ing thus early in the campaign, was
quite surprise to a number OF
the republicans of Plymouth, who
half believed that their organ wa:
sincere in its claims heretofore. Il
is needless to add that the republi
can county candidates are very an
cry. 1t was whispered about towr
last night that the Republican office
had sold its influence to the demo

DISAPPEARANCE OF WALNUT WOOD
Terrific Rapidly With Which Valu-
able Forests Are Being Consumed.

Terrific RaplulUy W TN w men fAlu-
able Forests Are Being Consumed.
From the St Louis Globe-Democrat.
People often wonder why so many of
our new buildings, including business strnc-
lures. churches and other edihces, are fin
isbed In oak or some other light-colored
wood, instead of the beautiful dark shades
that once predominated. The change is no.
ticeabIe on every hand, perhaps most so
in church buildings, where dark shades of
lumber would be preferable to many, as
more appropriate to the character OF the
place. Not a few attribute this to change
in the tastes Of the people. The real cause
for the change however, is not tickleness
of taste, but scarcity of the wood once
used universally for ornamentation. Wal
nut. for many decades the king of ell
woods, has become. commercially speaking
oil but extinct The consumption Of Il for
so many years has been SO rapid that.
like the white pine of Michigan, it IS near
lv an cut down. All that remains OF it
is found in little clumps of shade trees
scattered over Missouri, Illinois, Arkansas
and some OF the middle states.
Forty years ago walnut was so penti-
ful that settlers moving westward would
cut it down without stnt. simply TO clear
away their lands. Al that lime u was
commonly used by farmers for fencing in
their lands These boundary fences of
walnut can still be seen in many places
through the southern states The beauty
OF walnut for oruamentation was soon
recoenized, however, and 1t was used the
world over for finish in all costly work
Bedsteads. chairs, pianos, organs and near
" every article of furniture of any value
was made of walnut and expensive Dulld-
tngs were furnished with It. The St.
Louis merchants exchange building is a
good example Of the popularity of this
wood its stairs and balustrades having
been finished in walnut. Many Of our Old,
prosperous lumber firms made fortunes
dealing in this lumber.
Twenty years ago st. Louis was the
central walnut market OF the world, and
Missouri was one Of the best states for
supplying tho wood. Before that time
