The NicaragVa canal Gem mission
the mem bers of which have been in
vestigating routes for an isthmian
ship canal report that they have just
recently found tide-level route. A
preliminary survey shows this route
to be the most practicable Of any yet
considered. 1t lies 1870 miles east of
the Panama-Colon survey. Ut is to
be remem bered that the Isthmus Of
Panama extends east and west.)
This route has Caledonia bay, a fine
harbor, on the north, or Atlantic ter
minus, and San Miguel bay, also an
excellent barbor, on the south, or Pa
cific side. Here the isthmus is but 30
miles across. From the highest point
of land on this route both the Allan
tic and the Pacific oceans are visible.
The dry weather has deprecated
the wheat crop prospects and raised
the price of wheat and -four. The
spring wheat states are the chief suf-
ferers from the effects of the drought.
North Dakota and Minnesota, the
principal producers of hard wheat,
will harvest less than half an average
crop. AS a partial Offset to this
gloomy prospect, the winter wheat
states generally are harvesting an
enormous crop. In Kansas and Okla
homa, especially, the wheat crop is
unprecedentedly large.

Republican National Convention.

Amid scenes of the widest enthu-
siasm, the Philadelphia convention
last Thursday placed in nomination
as the Republican candidate for
President, Hon. William Mckinley
of Ohio, and for Vice President,
Governor Theodore Roosevelt of
New York. 1t is a somewhat sig
nificant as well as remarkable fact
that no other names were presented
to the convention for either office,
and this indication of harmony is to
Republicans everywhere a crafty
ing feature of the Inauguration of
the Presidential campaign of 1900.
The gentleman whom the Repub-
lican party presents as its candidate
for the Presidency needs no intro
duction to the American people.
They already know him as one of
the safest and most able statesmen
who has ever filled the office of Pres
ident of the U. S., an Office which
he is now filling with signal ability
and such general satisfaction to the
public. His career as President has
been characterized by commenda-
bic conservatism in dealing with for
eign nations, and his earnest devo-
ton to the interests of the American
producer, and a sound governmental
financial system, have earned for
him the gratitude, confidence, and
admiration of not only his own po-
litical party but thousands Of his po-
litical opponents who will quietly
rejoice at his reelection.
The nominee for the Vice Presi-
dency, Governor Theodore Roose-
velt of New York, has for years
been prominent figure in the af-
fairs of the Empire State, and at the
breaking out of the recent war with
Spain was Assistant Secretary of |
the United States Navy. This posi-
ton he resigned to assist in the or
ganization of the famous regiment
of rough riders who did such effect |
i've service at Santiago and which |
regiment he calamity led as its
Lieutenant Colonel. At the close Of |
the war he returned to New York, |
of which state he was elected Gov
ernor in 1898. He possesses Il dash |
and energy peculiar to himself, and
is abreast of the times in the science
of government. Should there be |
any occasion for him to succeed to |
the Presidency he win be found full
ly equal to the emergency.
