He will appoint one democrat and thus demonstrate that he is only a plain every day parti- aan. will The old world is going through a seige of labor troubles and strikes. Ten thousand men in Dublin are out. At Brussels fifty thousand miners are idle; in short, the whole Euro- pean country seems to be sitting on the mouth of a voleano. Major McKinley says President Harrison and not Mr. Blaine drafted the reciprocity clause in his bill and that he has the original bill in the president's handwriting. It would now bein order to interview Mr. Lodge and see what President Har- son had to do with the force bill. It is shown by a report of the sere ate committee on appropriations that nearly six huvdred new offices were created by the Fifty-first congress, the largest increase being in the treasury department. It requires as many clerks to pay out currency as it does to take it in. John H. Reagan has resigned his seat in the U. S. senate to accept the position of railroad commissioner, of the state of Texas, tendered him by the governor. Congressman R. Q. Mills will certainly be appointed to take his seat and this takes him out of the fight for speaker of the house. Governor Stone of Mississippi, frankly declares his views in relation to the sub-treasury plan of relief which is favored by the radical wing ofthe Farmers’ Alliance. He de clares that it promises nothing good te the agricultural class which, above all others, would be most se- riously damaged by any system of inflation which would disturb values. If all political leaders were as honest and courageous as Governor Stone there would be less disposition on the part of the people to take up with visionary and impracticable movements like the sub-treasury ‘The St. Louis Republic tells of a good plan of road building that has/| been started by the joint effort of farmers and townspeople in Henry county.

New York, April 30.—The price the highest point ever known since 1881. Recent advices from the pro- ducing sections of the country have given rise to the fear that the condi- tions of a year ago are to be repeat- ed. Within the month just closing the advance in the wholesale prices of meats of all descriptions has av- eraged 4c per pound, and this in- crease, it is the opinion of represen tative retail buyers, it likely to be maintained throughout the summer. It is predicted, though, that when the summer is over prices will be The retail butchers of Washington market of the first class. as they say,have added 5e per pound to their old prices. For example, porterhouse steaks, which retailed at the beginning of April at from 28¢ to 25¢ per pound, are to-day quoted at from 28¢ to 30¢ with a decided upward tendency. Round steaks, in quarters of sixty pounds and upward, may be pur chased at 124, but a single pound will cost the consumer from 1S8e to 20c. Rib roasts have gone up to 20c and 22c per pound, according to cut, while prime “chuck” roasts are quoted at from l4e to 16c. Mut ton chops “fit for a gentleman's ta- ble” are held at 25e per pound. ADVANCED IN CHICAGO. Chicago, Ill, April 30.—The wholesale price of beef in this city has advanced about 334 per cent within the past month. Talks with several local meat dealers that there will be no price prior to July 1, and before that time the tendency may possibly normal. indicate decrease in The cause of the advance is said to be the scarcity not only of good fat cattle, but a general s ity of cat- tle of all grades and the advance in the price of corn. Phil Chew has retired from the editorial management of the Journal of Agriculture, and the new editor is writing paragraphs indicative of his leaving toward a third party movement. The paper is supposed will be mutual the expense will be} borne by both. The town people} have raised a cash fund, some have} donated material, and the farmers | arecoming into the plan with their | means and their teams. “Just such local improvements as thi says | the Republic, ‘would result in giv-| ing the state a sytem of permanent turnpikes if there were any fund from which the state could extends aid. Perhaps some of these days all the revenues raised by railroad taxation may be used to create such afund.” It will take many a year however to fully convince people that good roads are the very best liance, but with President standing beldly and firmly against a third party it cannot have much encouragement from the rank and file. The Farmers’ Alliance in Mis- | menths of 1890, $33 sovri is composed of Missouri demo- crats, and the organ will probably discover this fact in due time. Mrs. Price Sues Her Husband's Slayer Sedalia, Mo. May 2.—Suit was enteredin the cireuit court to-day by the widow of Colonel Thomas B.

The trad ers and speculators—those lookiug out fr deals and corners—can_ riot amid the excitement of speculative values and in fluctuations from dis- turbances of the circulating medium. The farmer and laborer stand sort of even chances in that condition of things. The promise of opportunity to obtain money at « low rate of in- terest by depositing cotton and get ting an advance of 80 per cent of its value is, I think, a deusion and snare. sENT CONDITION.
