THE 1905 CROPS.

Z Although 1t now too early to make a
dependable forecast as to the crops of
the present year, the indications are
excellent. The government reports
just made public indicate that the
wheat crop this year will be record
breaker. The report shows the condi-
ton of winter wheat at the beginning
of April to be &.6, as compared with
76.5 at the same time in 1904, and
1871 as the average for the past ten
years. AS the area under cultivation
is 81 $4,000 acres, as compared with
little less than 27,000,O00 in 1904,
the chances for big wheat field this
year are excellent, though much will
depend on the amount Of spring wheat
which is harvested.
Wheat is not the country's greatest
grain crop. Corn is the imperial prod
uct of the American farm, For the
past few years corn has averaged more
than twice as high as wheat in aggre-
gate value. AS estimated by the de-
partment of agriculture, the value Of
the country's corn crop on the farm
on December 1, 1904, was little over
$1,000,0 100000, while that of wheat
was, $510,000,000. In most of the re-
cent previous years wheat was farther
below corn in market value than it
was in 1904. However, the favorable
outlook for winter wheat, which far
exceeds spring wheat in acreage and
production, is very pleasing to the
country
This year everyone wants to see ag-
ricultural prosperity. The crops in 1904
cn1nn6i6 ha bus
general election year, exceeded all past
marks. But the average of Industrial
activity this year will be greater than
last. The conditions of the country are
settled as far as politics is concerned,
and for four years there will be no
more question as to general policy.
Mills and factories are busy, work is
plentiful, bank clearings are large and
railway traffic is greater than last
year. 1t is especially encouraging,
then, to have good crops of the chief
products. Last year the showing on
the country's farms was good one
and this year, If other crops are like
that of wheat, new "highests" will be
registered in general business expan-
sion as we'll as in the crop statistics.
In 1904 the products of the coun-
try's farms reached an aggregate value
of about $5,O00,00O,0O0. This was an
immense asset in the sum of the coun-
try's activities in that year. The great
grain and other crops do not form
quite such large part of the peoples
new wealth as they did twenty years
ago, or even ten years ago, but good
times on the farm tend to add materi-
ally to the country's prosperity.

tain L, G. Logan the Ohio and Captain
j. P. Merrell the Oregon.
The British squadron now in Asiatic
waters includes four first class battle
ships, one armored cruiser, nine pro-
tected cruisers and six torpedo-boat
destroyers. There are fourteen battle
ships, two armored cruisers, ten pro-
tected cruisers and twenty-four de-
stroyers in the British Mediterranean
squadron and sixteen protected cruis-
ers in the Australian, Cape and East
Indian squadrons. Germany has in
Chinese waters one armored cruiser
and three other cruisers and France
has one battleship and six cruisers.
The American squadron Is, next to
the British, the strongest in Asiatic
waters representing a neutral power
Both Russian and japan are we'll in
formed as to the position of the United
States on questions of neutrality, and
there Is not likely to be any infringe
ment in Philippine waters nor any in
trusion into the war zone by American
vessels.
Though America Is not actively
concerned in the war now in progress,
Rear Admiral Train has many cares
to occupy his mind at this time. All
the neutral nations will resent a
breach in the international law on the
part of either of the belligerents For
mosa and the neighboring small
islands are the property of Japan and
they may be captured by the Russian
fleet or their harbors mined by the
Japanese without any interference by
the neutrals, but extreme watchfulness
is necessary to see that none of the
neutrals allows either of the hostile
fleets to break the international laws
and the American fleet is busy at
tending to it's part of this important
task

THE WHEAT DRAWBACK.

Toronto (Can) World - Senator
Hansbrough, of North Dakota, and the
United States secretary of the treas
ury, have been indulging in a racy
correspondence regarding the secre-
tary's action in granting drawback
on Canadian hard wheat imported for
milling purposes. The important point
for Canada is that, although the con-
troversialists treat the subject from
opposing points of view. both are in
substantial agreement that the draw
back is designed to assist the Ameri-
can at the expense Of the Canadian
miller
Senator Hansbrough's vigorous OPP
position to the drawback is made in
behalf of the agricultural interests of
the Northwestern states. He claims
that the price of hard wheat has all
ready been reduced several cents a
bushel because Canadian hard wheat
for use In exported flour Is allowed to
come in practically duty free.
Some of Secretary Shaw's remarks
are highly instructive, and should be
carefully considered by those Cana
dams who look only to the bare fact
that the drawback opens the United
States market to Canadian hard wheat
growers. He remarks that:
1.-THE only people that can possibly
be hurt are the Canadian n1illers and
the Canadian wheat growers. The

millers Of this country and the wheat
growers Of this country will reap the
benefit of whatever results occur. If
American millers cannot use American
wheat alone, and therefore must re-
tire from the export business unless
Canadian wheat Is used, then, as an
owner of agricultural lands, favor
that provision OF law which insures
the use Of portion of American wheat
and keeps the American brands Of
-four on the European market, to the
permanent benefit of the American
farmer quite as much as of the Ameri-
can miller"
Never before has Canada had SO
favorable an opportunity Of capturing
the European flour market, building
up an unrivaled milling industry and
incidentally maintaining the productive
capacity of her wheat lands and pro-
viding the conditions necessary for the
expansion of stock raising through the
utilization of the "offal" of the wheat.
A policy which neglects this oppor-
tunity is one Of the most suicidal
which can possibly be conceived.

Ell Tu. MEXICO.

1t is sad news for the sage Of the
Platte, but it is none the less true, that
Mexico has seen the last of the "free
coinage" Of silver. Last Saturday the
mints Of the republic struck their last
coinage of silver on private account.
This does not mean that silver will
ceased to be used as money in Mexico,
any more than it has ceased to be so
used in the United States. The use in
the two countries will be the same.
The Mexican government will stand
behind the silver Mexican dollar just
as the American government stands
behind its silver dollars. 1t will not be
rendered in payment of debts and ten
dered as a dollar simply because the
government says it is a dollar, but be-
cause the dollar offers to redeem it as
a dollar The result will doubtless be
a beneficial one for Mexico. 1t will
substitute certainty and stability for
uncertainty in the making of CONNER
cial deals and fixing prices.
But it is blow to the argument of

AMERICAS ORIENTAL FLEET.

The American fleet in Asiatic waters,
under command of Rear Admiral
Train, is receiving the attention of the
officials at Washington just at this
time and the readers of the war news
and other dispatches relating to the sit
uation in the orient are learning much
they have not known before regarding
the naval defenses provided for the
Philippines. The American fleet in
the war zone Is now organized in three
squadrons. The battleship squadron
consists of the Wisconsin, Monodnock,
Ohio and Oregon, with the gunboats
Callao, Elcano, Helena, Villabos and
Wilmington, and the torpedo-boat de-
stroyers cambridge, Barry, Chauncey,
Dale and Decatur. All the squadron
carrying sixty heavy guns) is to be
concentrated this week at Cavite naval
station in the Philippines.
The cruiser squadron consists of the
Baltimore, Cincinnati and Raleigh.
These cruisers carry thirty-two heavy
guns and are all cruising in Corean
or Philippine waters.
The Philippine squadron consists Of
the cruiser Rainbow and the gunboats
Pampanga, Pargua, Mindoro, Quiros,
Frolic and Arayat. In the auxiliary
squadron there are five Golfers, one
supply ship and one dispatch boat

defendant. Collingwood is charged
with having married Mary Waddel,
September 81, 1904 to escape prose
cution on charges of seduction which
were then pending and to have desert
ed her the next day Collingwood was
recently indicted but the discovery Of
additional testimony led County At
torney w. W. Epps to move that the
old indictment be quashed and the

out of court. The jury has been re-
lieved until Thursday when the trial
