WHEAT,

The enlarged exports of wheat from
India that set in in 1879 command ut
tention as part Of the argument taksi
against the single gold standard. II
1873 tie amount was less than 1,000,'
900 bushels. In 1886 il had swollen
to nearly 1000, 900, and since then j,
has reached 100000 bushels. Every
bushol of this wheat was sold in com.
petition with American, and both in
wheat and cotton the competition was
on a silver basis. Only during the
famine in India did our wi eat tempo
49,. rarily rise in price. When silver be-
-, sganto drop in the London market it
was to the advantage Of the English
q. importer to buy in India rather than
the United States, With . certain
number of pounds sterling he could
.&e buy. more rupees than formerly, and
with each rupee he could get ~ much
q wheai or anything else in India as he
BE- could before silver MAS dsmonetizsd:
He could therefore afford to sell lit I
tie more cheaply t IN t''e- importer |
from Am erica could, The lower sill /
verwent in the market the more Iu- !
pees POUND sterling would buy, and 1
r Consequently the more wheat it would
buy. The ttimulus TO East Indian
manufacturing was the same in prin-
ciple, but the process was somewhat
different. When the East Indian made
purchases in England he had to con-
vert his silver into gold at loss. In
some cases he could. keep eyea bXI
getting. the goods at lower prices. bat
in others he could not. In the latter
class of,cases, rather than suffer the
loss, he began to manufacturefor him I
self. The same considerations also in
duced the Investment Of English CAPT |
talin East Indian cotton mile, be-
cause given number of sovereigns
would buy greater number Of rupees.
and each rupee would do as much
work as it ever would in India. Thus s
we see that the demonetizaton OF sill. kI
yer had double effect so far as the II
United States was concerned. First, n
it loweredprices generally, by dimin-
fishing the,TOlume Of primary money in +
E urope and America, and, second, it '
brought the country into direct COM kr

REFORM LEAGUE ADDRESS.

The Executive Committee of tn
Democratic League for reform in tn
election of United States senator
issued last Friday through ito chair
man, Hon. William A. Anderson, O
Lexington, an address to the Demo
cratic voters OF the State. Following
+; are extracts from the address.
One Of the gravest questions which
has enlisted the interest OF thoughtfu
and patriotic citizens Of the Americas
Union during the present generation
4, Las been the importance of q change
in the mode of selecting United States
Senators.
The existing method Of elsetine
senators is the last remaining vestige
of the almost exclusive supremacy of
the legislature, and, as has been truly
eaid, is entirely out Of accord with the
broad and liberal extension Of the cleo
tive franchise now everywhere prevail
ing.
Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson,
and their illustrious successors in Office
for years were chosen to the Office of
Governor by the Virginia Legislature,
and similar mode OF selection WAS in
vogue in other States. At that period
it would have been simply impossible
for such men az Marcus A. Hanna, OF
Ohio, Thomas O. Plat, OF New York,
and Mathew Stanley Quay, Of Pen1-
sylyania, to have been made men,
bers of that body.
During the winter just past there
were dozen or more senators chosen
and in nearly every instance the chief
distinction Of the person selected was
that he was either himself man OF
enormous wealth, or the representa-
live OF great corporate interests.
Occurrences such as these, and the
scandals which in connection with the
selection OF senators in a number OF
States hare beena reproach to the
/. Anescan people, have served to arouse
D profound interest in this subject in
almost every portion Of our country.
-, since that occurrence events OF q
startling character have taken place in
connection with the nomination OF
Democratic candidates for the Gaoeral
Assembly in some Of the counties and
cities of the State, which indicate
settled purpose on the part Of d
majority Of those who have been tenn
porarly entrusted with the party mana
gement in those localities to prevent
and suppress any fair EXPIRE len OF the
will of the people as to tueir choice
Tor this high ofdce. This has been the
case in Richmond city, and i, several
counties Of the Commonwealth, where
what are aptly called ''snap primaries"
or "snap conventions" have been, OK
