tesligent man has ever thought of dis
putting the fact that there has been a
remarkable coincidence, every year, In
the fluctuations of wheat and silver.
Mr. Bryan most certainly did not assert
that fall in the price of silver to-day
would produce like fall in the price of
wheat tomorrow. He merely pointed
out that statistics showed that the
price of wheat had always followed a
drop In the price of silver. A partial
failure of the crop at home or abroad
might force the price of wheat up, while
the price Of silver was going down, but
when normal conditions were restored
wheat declined in sympathy with silver.
3. Since 1895 we have not had ire
markably large crocs of wheat" The
crop of 1891 was larger than the crops
of either 1896. 1897 or 1899. The crop of
1898 was remarkable, but in the same
year the crop of corn was short $50. $780,.
900 bushels. while the crops of barley.
rye and buckwheat were short also. In
the same year, however. the foreign
crop of wheat was short and the United
States was called on to make good the
shortage. as was shown by the fact that
our exports of wheat jumped from 79,
375.372 bushels. in 1S96-'97. to lag. 623 $50
in 1S97-'9S, being thereby nearly doubled.
In 1S9S-'99 this tremendous foreign de-
mand showed little abatement, since we
sent abroad 139, 1872. S15 bushels that
year. In other words, the worlds sup
ply of grain fell off. while the demand
wheat-grower has profited. The condi-
tions have been abnormal and afford
no ground for the careful observer to
conclude that the contention really
made by the bimetallists in 1896 was
erroneous. We are sure that the Index
Appeal will see the point.

GOAT MASQUERADING AS MUTTON
Chicago Record

Considering the uncertainty that at
taches to almost all the articles of food
that were once the product of the farm;
remembering that butterine made from
suet and other fats can hardly be dis
tinguished from the legitimate product
of the churn: that milk Is sometimes a
chemical conglomeration OF chalk.
water and formaldehyde and that even
eggs have been countcrfeitcd so accu-
rately that it may be matter of only
few years before the henless egg will
take it's place in our vocabulary along
side of the horss "a IS carriage, it is not
a reason for surprise to learn that the
festive goat is now parading before the
public gaze as the latest substitute for
the ncecy and succulcnt lamb of for
mer days.
On his own merits, perhaps the goat
as an article of food, might not be who'll
ly obnoxious to the everyday citizen
who has no pretensions To be regarded
as II gourmet; but unfortunately, owing
to the tradition that the ordinary goat
of commerce is not capable of passing
any day of his life in comfort unless he
has munched the posters off an acre or
two Of theatrical billhoards and lunchcd
upon half hundredweignt of rusty to-
mato cans and cast-off hoopskirts, the
public has an idea that mutton made
from the agile capricornus must neces-
sarily partake in texture and in flavor
of the diet upon which he feeds.
