Republicans have taken desperate
chances and humiliated themselves to
wage bitter fight to gain control OF
the Legislature. This is just the con-
dition Of things the Democrats should
gladly meet Their duty now is to
nominate strong men, and II this is
done, there will be a glorious fight.-
Delaware Ledger.
The man the Regulars were kicking
against two years ago is the very one
they put on for congressman this year.
Some strange things happen in the po-
litical line. In Hoffebker's speech at
the Addicks convention he said: "Two
years ago you nominated me for the
highest office in the state / am the
same man to-day that I was then"
There is something in this for the
Regulars to study on.-Seaford News.
Delaware is Democratic whether the
two Republican parties are united OF
not. and what we have to say as to
Republican politics is with no hope OF
influencing either Of those parties, but
we do intend that the people shall
know where Addicksism is camping
and where It marches and who go to
make up its armies.-Milford Herald.

NOT Ip TO PROMISE.

We are informed by the American
Agricu.turist, which hes made a thor
ough investigation of dhe subject, that
the wheat crop of 1898 is not quite up
to promise. It says that in a few states
1t now appears the promise of wheat
WAS not fulfilled in actual grain by
what must segm like large margin,
while in number of states the rate
OF yield was even greater than indi-
Gated on July /. but with full allow
ance for all disappointment, ne fact
remains that the crop this year is the
largest on record. The reported rate of
yield in Winter wheat is 14s bushels
and in Spring wheat 15.4 bushels. The
final crop result will appsar next
month, but the American Agriculturist
says it may not be amiss to note that
II the present rate OF yield indicated
shall be maintained the total produc-
tion OF Winter wheat will be rather un-
der 40O,OOO,OOO bushels, and Spring
wheat fully sOO,OOO,O00 bushels, subject
to modification next month.
The present report of the American
Agriculturist on corn places the condi-
tion S5.4, ais compared with $50 a
month earlier. The change, while
slight, is a distinct disappointment, as
It was generally believed the breaking
of the drought would advance the CON-
ditioR Of the crop at least to IN aver
age showing for this date. Taking the
surplus States OF Ohio, Indiana, Illi-
nois, Iowa. Missouri. Kansas and Ne
brasl1a, It appears the present condi-
tion I'm this crop is 1913, as against 79.1
one month"; ago and 500 cze year ago
There is an unusually large percentage
of healthy appearing stalks, which are
bearing no ears at all, and a larger
proportion which have a single ear
and that short and approaching the
nubbing condition. The effect OF thit
will only be fully recognized when th'
crop is husl1ed, and It is easily within
the range Of possibilities that the fina
report OF rate OF yield per acre viii
present some marked surpriss.
The condition of oats when harvest
ed is placed at 7S.4, or 90 lower thar
on August l. with the general qualit,
not as good as last year.
The same authority sgys the pas
month has brought further reduction
in the promise of the pSoato crop, tn
breaking OF the duought not being fol
lowed by a recovery OF condition.
