FIFTE.CENT WHEAT.

The price of wheat is bound to have
an immense influence upon business con-
ditlons. 1t is. we believe, fair to say that
with wheat at Go cents in Chicago, it will
yield the farmer, at point OF production,
only about % cents per bushel, which
turn does not represent ordinarily 80 cts.
IN per day for the labor put into it.
tlfty-cent wheat, therefore, means 30
cent labor. and portends proportiouate
valuation on all other things that repre-
sent labor. Therefore, from this time on
the market course Of wheat should be
carefully watched as a guide.-The Chi
cago Financial Record.
Col. Bryan will soon have his
uniform off and will be in po-
sitlon to be questioned about the
relations between the price of sill
YER and the price of wheat. Last
spring when the Letter deal was
on the republican papers impor-
tuned Mr.. Bryan daily to explain
why his theory had broken down.
When farmer in North Dakota
sells wheat at 50 cents per bushel,
he does not realize 50 cents per
day for his labor. He does not
clear as much as does the poor and
despised Mexican who works fol-
Is cents per day in Mexican
money. The proof of that Is that
the Mexican does pretty we'll
while the American farmer has
not made a cent for five years, ex.
cept through the misfortune Of the
outside world. Surely our gold.
belt journalistic friends ought, just
now, to be praying for great ia.
mine somewhere in the world OF
for another Letter to tempt Provi.
dence by inaugurating a gigantic
wheat deal. There will be al
election in November, and votes
are sensitive things. A steadily
falling market is bad for the party
in power.

GENUINE cause for feeling Of
alarm manifested itself among the
republican leaders of the state last
week when the w. c. L. q.
of Trail county made public q
set Of resolutions which touch
upon the unsavory incidents in
the muss which entangles the can
didacy Of State Sup't Halland,
who is out for second term. At
meeting OF the Union on July
Both, they resolved as follows:
We cannot be trne to the principles
set forth IN our constitution and support
J. G. Halland at the polls at the coming
election for the Office Of state superinten
dent OF public instruction; that not only
as Christians, but as guardians Of the
moral welfare of the young OF our state
OF school age, over whom, il elected, he
would be placed as the head OF the edu-
catlonal institutions of our state, we
believe 1t to be our duty to do all in our
power to defeat him at the polls
The resolutions also state that
the organization will support any
other candidate of moral and men
tai qualifications who may come
before the people for that Office.
They will also issue al appeal to
voters which, after reciting their
reasons in general way, asks the
people of the state to vote against
Halland. In q specific way the
appeal states that the request is
based on the charges Of immortal
ity against the superintendent,
which they regard as substantiated
by the aHdavits of variousp arties.
This they expect will form an i'm
portant feature il the fall cam
paign.

The proposed constitutional
amendments now being published
by the republican press of the
state, are not to be voted on this
fall, although general idea pre-
walls that such will be the case.
They will first be submitted to the
consideration Of the legislature
when if favorably passed upon will
in turn be voted on by the people
at the general election in 1900.

DURING the past week some ugly
rumors have become public through
the press of the state regarding
the misrepresentation Estate funds
in the purchase of supplies and
equipment of our volunteers dur
ing the maintenance of Camp
Briggs at Fargo last spring. Only |
$1,000 of state money was sup
posed to have been expended while
up to the present time vouchers to
the amount of $1,000 have been
accepted. The hotel bills of many
of the officers, made items Of up
wards hundred dollars. Instances
are also coming to ght of vouch-
ers being issued for what at one
time We're fully supposed to be do
nations Of public spirited citizens,
the ind vidual in one case being
the private secretary of the gov
ernor of our state. Col. fuller,
the chief of supplies at Camp
Briggs during the rendezvous of
the militia, demands an investiga-
ton and it looks as if Adjutant
Poole, who was appointed purchas-
ing agent and by the way is an
attache of one Of the state officers
at Bismarck, is the luckless victim
On whose head criticisms of the
public will fall. Military circles
in North Dakota admit that some
''hot stuff" may be looked for and
that it will involve the present
administration at Bismarck, is q
dead certainty.

AN oversight of the administra-
ton, in not making the terms of
peace with Spain include immedi-
ate American control of Havana
and all other parts of Cuba, will
cost few thousand poor devils,
who are unfortunate enough to be
residents Of Cuba, their lives.
Captain General Blanco has pre-
vented the landing Of supplies
carried to Havana by the Red
Cross Society, for free distribution
to the needy, although he knows
that thousands are on the verge of
starvation, and, owing to that over
sight of the administration, those
who would gladly feed those
hungry Cubans and Spaniards
must bow to the inhuman will Of
Blanco, The best that the adj
ministration could do was to an
nounce that food for the poor
would be admitted free of all duty
or prescription at all Cuban ports
that are under our control, which
means Santiago, and several small
Ter places.

SENATOR BURROWS, of Michigan,

SENATOR BURROWS, of Michigan,
arrived in Washington with his
war paint on, last week. lie went
for the purpose Of compelling the
administration to either keep out
Of the senatorial fight in his state
or to fight out in the open, and he
is said to have gwen p esidcnt
Mckinley and Secretary a I,.er to
understand that he did not care a
continental What the ud.niMistra-
ton did, further than to know it.
The idea seems to have got out
among Pingrec's friends dat AL
ger, backed by the administration,
was encouraging pir"r"c's fight
on burrows; also III Washington.
Burrows says he secured positive
denials from both Mckinley and
A!ger, but his manner leaves one
to suppose that he still cntcrtains
doubts. 1t seems that the demo-
Gratis OF Michigan ought to be able
to take advantage of the Burrows
Pingree fight to elect Il majority
OF the legislature and secure the
senator,

will be by long odds the greatest

The Ontario government bulletin
shows that the fall wheat crop will
be 25,O0O,0O0, or 100000 more
than last year, and the spring
wheat crop will be 100000, or
], 100000 more than last year.

He Bismarck Revie,

The Bismarck Review has
picked out another vulnerable spot
in The republican state ticket and
it looks as if George Harrison, the
nominee for insurance commits
sioner, has had his campaigning
wings clipped and is huttering
down harmlessly out Of the politi-
cal plum tree. Harrison's morals
are said to have got badly corrupt
ed at the last legislature when
"the gang claim he attempted
black mail. Since then such dis
honorable acts as not honoring
checks and dead beating when OPP
ontuni'y offered, are given as
reasons of the Reviews attack on
one of the nominees on a ticket
that it would naturally be expected
to support. One thing that the
press Of the state will regret, is the
fact that Harrison is one OF the
craft. How he came to get on the
republican band wagon and join in
that twenty three minute ride
through the state convention ut
Fargo is partly explained by his
getting financially tangled up with
such political plug-uglies as Pat
Rourke and Harry Oliver, we'll
known ornaments OF the republi-
can party in Ransom county.
There promises to be wondrous
stampede Of republican voters at
the polls this fall and if the entire
campaign fund were invested in
whitewash it would help but
mighty little according to the look
of things now.
