The Wheat Craze.

A short wheat crop, face to face
with which the sudden ravages of rust
have SO unexpectedly brought the
northwest, is harmful to the country
in more ways than one. While it is
possible that the enhanced price may
be such that the total value Of the
wheat crop will be as great as in av-
erage years, the money received for
it is not SO evenly distributed and
the general public is not so fortunate.
A big crop means big business for the
railways, lively times for the eleva-
tors and mills and general business
confidence. The general business
world always benefits from big crop
A short crop arouses the gambling
spirit Of thousands Of people, who
neither know nor profess to know
anything about market conditions
The prospect Of a rapidly ascending
scale of wheat prices tempts them to
rush into the market and buy wheat
in precisely the same mood that they
would put their money on racehorses.
Clerks, office boys, professional men
surrender to the supreme interest Of
the hour and gamble their savings
on the fluctuations of the wheat mar
ket. Stories are circulated Of anna
teurs and ''rubes" who have made for-
tunes within a few days, the get-rich-
quick fever seizes the community, and

Taggart Wasting Time.

Tom (Taggart has been trying to
make a little inexpensive political
capital in Indiana by criticising Sena-
tor Fairbanks for not having resigned
his seat In the senate after his nomi-
nation for vice president. He calls
attention to Judge Parker's resigna-
ton andF seems to think he has said
something. The New York World,
which supports Parker and Davis,
tells Tag,gart he is wasting his time;
that the cases are not parallel and
that precedent is in favor of retention
Of his seat by Mr.. Fairbanks till after
election. Douglas did not resign,
neither did Garfield; Van Buren, held
on to the vice presidency; Grant did
not resign his commission in the army,
neither did Hancock, and neither Til
den nor Cleveland resigned the gov
ernorship Of New York. Further
more, if Senator Fairbanks should re-
sign his place would have to be filled
by appointment, which would cause
dangerous complications in view of
the fact that there is considerable
field Of candidates for his senatorial
seat.
Taggart Is grabbing at straws.

China and the Japanese Example.

Augustine Heard. former United
States minister to Korea and for many
years identified with Chinese-Ameri-
can commerce, predicts important re-
suits from the present war in the orr
ent. He assumes that Japan will die
tate the terms Of peace and anticipates
the exercise of a dominating influence
over China by Japan. China seems
TO recognize Japan as entitled to
leadership and is apparently ready
now to follow Japanese guidance.
While the Europeans and Americans
have been unable to arouse the Sleep
ing giant and induce him to adopt
modern western ideas and methods,
Japan would find it easy to convince
the Chinese Of the advantages Of talk
ing the steps she has taken. Japan's
example and her success in this war
will. in Mr.. Heard's opinion, be a
very patent force in Chinese politics
and Chinese commercial affairs.
This would mean the orient for the
orientalist, for the orientalist ready to
seize upon and use to its utmost all
the forces of western civilization
WHICH JdpdT SIlOWu ISISSll CCpd-
BILE of adapting to her service in this
crisis. Modern invention and discov-
cry have been exhausted by the Japs

can respond, to the guidance and inf1u-
ence which .Japan's well-earned

to assert, the Acknowledgement Of the
Chinese empire and the parceling out
of the most attractive divisions
among the European nations will be
neither possible nor profitable.
Mr.. Heard suggests in this connec-
ton the imminence Of q military yell
low peril, anticipating the possible
consequences Of an alliance offensive
and defensive between the ,Japs and
the Chinese. Observation of the
practical and commercial instinct of
the Japs would indicate, however, a
more probable application of the effort
to industrial development than to
military aggression. China's natural
resources are enormous. She Is said
to have the largest deposits Of iron
and coal in the world in close prox-
unity to each other. The preserva-
ton Of these great deposits till now is
a most interesting and suggestive fact
Along with the possession of the raw
materials she has millions of the most
Industrious and faithful workers lr
the world who can be hired at less
than half the wages the American OF
even the European must have. The
possibilities of such a combination
will hardly be lost on the Jap, es
pecially when his exploitation of these
resources may be accomplished with
out racial friction and prejudice
which as existing between the China
man and the foreign devip' the Jal
will be clever enough not to dis
courage.

Winnipeg, Man., Aug. 24.-The first car
of the 1904 wheat crop was received yes
terday from Melita by the Lake of the
Woods Milling company. It graded No. 1
hard, and the dockage was the minimum
Of / " per cent. The rust scare has pretty
much worn off here, and everyone now ex-
poets a good average crop.
The excursion train containing the bank
ers and grain dealers from Winnipeg has
arrived in Brandon Since leaving home
it has run over the 500 line to Moose Jaw
and up the Prince Albert branch
The opinion of the experts on the spe-
cial train is that the crops in the Cana
dian west will be a good average, but it
| is early yet to draw comparison with
other years. In Assiniboia the crops are
magnificent, but damage has been done by
rust in southern Manitoba.
On the main line west Of Brandon the
wheat looks fine. Harvesting has begun
around Prince Albert, and in the vicinity
Of Rosthern and Saskatoon. Around Moose
Jaw and Regina there was a touch Of
frost Saturday, but that was the only
| piece that suffered in all the west Around
Indian Head and Qu'Appelle the wheat
could not possibly be better, and only
frost will prevent a record crop from be-
ing harvested. Harvesting, however, will
| not begin for about a. week.

The Life of Strife.

A few days ago TIL e Journ l
made some reference to the criticism
by Father Doyle of the Catholic
World Of an address by DR.. Draper,
commissioner of education for the
state of New York. DR.. Diapers ad-
dress was referred to as a glorifica-
ton of life of strife and greed which
the world is now living. Among other
things he said: People are going to
crowd you and you will have to crowd
them. They will leave you behind
unless you leave them behind
DR.. Draper thinks he has not been
fairly represented. He said what was
attributed to him and more to the
same effect, and it is clearly suscep-
tible Of the Interpretation which
Father Doyle gave it. There is GER
tainly that In the address which looks
to the survival Of the fittest thru strife
with, if not against others.
Nothing" says DR.. Draper, "but
an aggressiveness which is sturdier
and stronger than theirs will give
you the place Of eminence and OF
honor" However, there are para
graphs in the address, as appears from
extracts received from DR.. Draper
which take into account the rights
and interests Of others, where he in
sists that this energy and strength
are not to be shown thru warfare
upon other men who are just as good
as you are, even tho they be headed
for the same place." And further:

Condemned at Home.

The condemnation of the States
boro affair is more severe in the
southern papers than anywhere else,
so far as we have observed. The
Richmond News-Leader predicts that
nobody will be punished for the act
of the mob in burning the negroes
condemned to death and in the GUS
tody of the officers, altho it contends
that IF justice could be done the gov
parchment proceedings, the sheriff
would be in Jail, several scores Of
citizens would be put on trial for muir
der, and the officers in command of
the militia would be tried by court
martial" s.
The Charleston, S. c., News and
Courier says: 1--WE try to make our
selves believe that the law is really
greater than the mob, but In all the
years of bloodshed and outrage in
Georgia and other southern states, the
law has never been able to assert and
maintain it's supremacy"
The leader of the Statesboro mob
is said to have admitted his participa-
ton in the burning and to. have de-
clared in cold blood that there was
| a plan to lynch the negroes at the con-
clusion Of the trial no matter what
| the verdict. He says that the authors
ties know who he is and that he has
no fear of Indictment or conviction.
| The News and Courier wants to know
| whether this Is "the indecent boast OF
| a mere braggart, glutted with blood,
or is it a fact that shall stand forever
on the records in condemnation Of the
people of Georgia? Is 1t
true that a jury Of men, honest
enough and fearless enough, cannot be
found in Georgia to punish a crime
that would disgrace savagery, that
plumes itself upon it's guilt and that
lays claim to being representative OF
the people and typical of the civiliza-
ton that beheld it's commission? ' II
that be true, the Charleston paper
thinks that evil times have come upor
the south and that southern civiliza.
ton is proving failure.
Of course, northern paper could
not venture to say things like that
but the south must admit their force
when they appear in the nature of E
confession by the southern press. I'm.
fortunately no section Of the country
is entirely free from the disgrace o.
mob law, but it would be difficult tt
match the Statesboro affair by paral
lei in all the history of the country
for bold connivance on the part O.
the officers with the mob. for mex
cusable absence Of justification, tn,
victims being convicted by law and il
the hands Of the officers, and for tn,
savagery Of the mob.

SALT CURE FOR RUST
Old Wheat Growers of Eastern States
Have Remedy.

Special to The Journal
Fargo, N. D., Aug. 24.-The salt cure
for rust on wheat is being advocated in
this state. Former residents of Wiscon
sin and other eastern states assert that a
half-Lushel to a bushel of salt an acre
sowed broadcast on wheat fields about
the time the grain comes up will prove a
sure preventive for rust.
It is said that if as much as bushel an
acre Is used it is good for two years. The
remedy is suggested as being efficacious in
this state, but it would be great task
to attempt to use it on all the wheat
fields.
