WHEAT IN DANGER.
High Temperature Wor-
rics Farmers.


The hottest March weather on rec
ord, with July temperature prevail
ing throughout most of the west,
gave rise to some anxiety regarding
tht wheat prospects last week, says
the Kansas City Star. It was not
seriously claimed that the hot wealth
er did any damage; on the contrary
It started the wheat to growing rap
idly and gave the fields nearly ev-
erywhere a fine appearance. But thu
fear was expressed that such extreme
" high temperature in March MAJ
be the forerunner of dry and
hot spring that will ruin much o
the wheat crop.
Persons who attempt long-distanc
Weather forecasts generally make
sorry mess of it. Nevertheless, sue
a remarkable phenomenon as 90 de
grees temperature in March ,naturall
raises a question as to whether
may not be indicative of an advers
crop this season.
Prior to this month the nighes
previous March temperature was 3
in 1905. and the wheat crop was
failure that year,

Says the Owensboro Messenger:
After al the newspaper noto-
riety given the last municipal
election in Louisville; after the
several Gait house meetings at
which the "best citizens raised
$20, 900 or more to contest this
fraudulent" and outrageous
election; after many months of
testimony of the alleged frauds
and prOdigious work by many
able hired and volunteer attor-
neys It turns out according to

of fraud made by the contest
ants, that the Democratic ticket
was still elected by a sufficient
and ample majority.
The Messenger misses the point.
II never was disputed that the Dem
ocrats got a sufficient majority The
was to the way they got
that majority. Granting every claim
of fraud" it would have been strange
had the Democrats not gotten a
sufficient majority" considering
they could make that majority any
thing they desired. We can't hep
wondering what the esteemed Mes
senger would have said, had "sufi-
Client majority been secured through
the same means, by the Beckham
wing of the Democratic party.
