The members of the Republican State No two estimates of the present harvest agree in their figures, Some predict an immense shortage in the American grain products amounting to 200,000,000 bushels. Others ad uritting that the crops per acre are less than last year’s, still insist that the in- creased acreage of this season, togeth- er with the surplus from last, will give us fully as many bushels of wheat for Both of [ these views are probably exaggerated. export as we had last year, | It is candidly admitted on all sides that there is a great del y in both spring and winter wheat. In Wisconsin, Towa, Minnesota, Dakota and California the shortage in spring wheat is placed at 12,000,000 winter and late spring played havoe wheat. In Illinois alone the reduction compared with last years crop is over 81,000,000 The great winter whoat growing district which stretches along the western boundary of the Alleghe- nies gives a further shortage of 55,000,000bushels. Taken altogether the most reliable estimates place the deficiency in winter wheat atnearly 75, - 000,000 bushels below last years crop, Corn is also a short crop. In many districts the corn crop reports are even more unfavorable than the wheat. bushels.

The Pacific coast is probably better off so far as her this year's crops are concerned than any other portion of the country. Al- though the harvest in California is not up to the yield of last year the crop is good, and an immense quantity of last year's wheat is still on hand which it was then impossible to export owing to high freights by ves- sol. This year the revival of railroad buildinglis bringing to the Pacific coast many vessels loaded with railroad supplies, which will take return barges of wheat at reasonable rates. It is estimated that together Califor- nia and Oregon will ship 54,000,000 bushels, The price of American grain is largely dependent on the demand from foreign countries. Last year there was an/immense shortage on the continent and our surplus was easily disposed of at remunerative prices, This year the reports from Europe indicate that the crops will bo considerably better than they were last year. Rus- win- reports wheat wood, and barley and rye abuudant. France will have a much bettor crop, while Great Britian will fall below the average. But while the demand is not so great as it was during last season, the United States will have no difficulty in disposing of any surplus which she may have over what they were at the corresponding period last year, Much of this ad- vance is due to speculation, but there are good reasons why there should be a very appreciable rise in prices and that an advance of least 25 per cont should be maintainea during the coming winter, S1oux Crry is up in arms. The at- tempt of Omaha to establish closer commercial relations with Northern Nebraska has set the Sioux City deal- ers in hogs and hominy all on their ear. The Sioux City papers are full of promiscuous missiles hurled at Omaha, and it will soon be un- safe for any Omaha drummer to set foot any where within fifty miles of that belligerent town. Some of the harmless wads fired from the Qua- ker guns bySioux City swash-bucklers are decidedly amusing. The Sunday Journal fires a whoie column of blank cartridges at Omaha from behind the ramparts of an anonymous ‘‘citizen.” We are told, for instance, that Omaha deslers can never compete with Sioux City in northern Nebraska, because: First - Sioux City dealers buy their goods largely from Boston and New York, at the same price that the goods can be bought by Omaha dealers, and, being nearer to northern Nebraska than Omala, they can undersell Omaha, Second —The merchants of northern Nebraska are reminded that Omaha is laboring un- a mountain of debt that is in major part unconstitutional, and that Omaha stocks aro taxed and re-taxed merely THE OMAHA DAILY BEI“:fi great mountain of public debt may after all become a formidable rival for the trade of Northern Nebraska which by rights never should have gone to Sioux City To a trec it 1ooks as if the proposed inva- Northern Nebraska by the grand army of Omaha drummers had man up a sion of caused a big seare among the dealers in hog and hominy up in Sioux City Tar Oxana Bee has flopped with the precision of the oldest veteran, and is now denouncing the people of Orange county for thinking of renom- inating Tus Bee's late patron saint Sessions for the senate, It has been gently denouncing the vice president for not promply assuming the execu- tive chair, and will soon be demand- ing the removal of Robertson from the New York collectorship, — Lincoln Jowrnal, Will the Jowrnal kindly «quote a single paragraph that has ever ap- peared in Tur Ber favoring or en- dorsing the crooked conduct of Sessions or apologizing for his attempts to bribe his colleagues in the New York legislature? Can the Journal poin to a single par- agraph from Tue Bee endorsing the candidature of Channcey M. Depew at any stage of tho late senatorial con- test in New York? From the time Conkling and Platt retired from the senate Tie Ber denounced as utterly indefensible the surrender of the sen- ate tothe democracy by the desertion of the New York senators. The pro- claimed intention of the deserters to rebuke President Garfield for exerci- sing this prerogative in the New York collectorship, forced the issue in which Tue Bee sided against Conkling and Platt, disapproving their attempt to force a vindication at the hand of the New York legislature by a re-election. Tur Ber never approved the questionable methodsto which some of the lobbyists and henchmen of Clhauncy M. Depew resorted ; and when Depew was finally withdrawn this paper express- ed its gratification. Wherein then has the Ber flopped? The constitution devolves the du- ties of the president’s oftice upon the vice-president whenever the presi- dent is disabled. President Garfield is notoriously unable to perform the duties devolving on him as president. Mr. Arthurhayingbeendulyelected and installed as vice-president is under the constitution charged with performing the duties of the presid until the president’s disability has ceased. It does not matter whether Mr. Arthur is personally less popular than General Garfield; it does not matter whether he does or does not enjoy the respect and'confidence of the country; he is our constitutional ac- ting president until General Garfield can resume the active performance ot the duties devolving upon the presi- dent. If the people have made a mis- take in electing My, Arthur to a posi- tion that may at any time clothe him with the responsibilities of president they must suffer the consequences, This has been our position and we have nothing to retract nor can our consistency be successfully assailed, Dy~amire Rossa now denies that it 18 the purpose of himself or those who are acting with him to blow up pas- senger steamers with their passengers.

Baltimore Sun One of the most striking circum- stances of the present time is the vast amount of money that is flowing into the South, and is being expended in building new railroads, extending old ones in organizing new industrial en- terpriscs, Wherever there are miner- al treasures to develop, capital in superabundance appears tc be ready to embark in utilizing them, and to construct through our branch rail- roads to facilitate the bringing of the products to market. The activity manifested in the valley in Virginia during the past year has been most remarkable. New buildings are going up in all directions, new railroads ars forming a perfect net work of iron lines through the gaps of the moun- tains, and new furnaces are either projected or are under construction. One of the most noteworthy of these industrial ventures is that of an Eng lish company which has bought a large body of iron-ore lands at some dis- tance from Millboro, where they pro- pose to build the largest furnaces yet projected at the South, bringing the ore to the furnaces by a railroad al- ready partially graded along the val- ley of Mill creek, and which, when completed will pass within two miles of Rockbridge Alum springs, now only accessible by stages. All along the lines of the Chesapeake and Ohio and the Richmond and Allegheny roads and their branches are stretched great trains of coal cars, immense masses of iron ore waiting shipment, and of lime stored from the quarries near by. The Lowmoor furneces and the Clifton forges are said to be worked to their utmost capacity, and everywhere one meets with signs of unprecedent- ed prosperity, Nor is it in the valley alone these manifestations of indus- trial progress are found. They may be witnessed in other parts of old Virginia stretching from tidewater to the Tennessee line. Quite a number of the other southern states are shar- ing in this happy change; some in the increase of cotton manufactories, others in mining and smelting of iron and copper, and in getting out kaolin tobe used in the making of porcelian and other wares, and various arts and manufactures. It has been estimated that no less than one hundred millions of dollars have been subscribed at the north within the past eighteen months for investment in the states of the south east of the Mississippi riverand south and west of Richmond. Within a year §2,000,000 of eastern and other capital have been invested in cotton manufactories in Georgiaalone. Three millions have been subscribed in New York for the development of coal and iron in Tennessee. Eighteen hun- dred thousand dollars have been put into cotton mills and steel works in Alabama, All these and many more inyestments are outside of the large sums expended in buying up and im- proving old railroads and building new. Besides these investments by capitalists in the north- ern, castern and middle etates, European syndicates have entered the field. One syndicate—the Earlander sive to England to hold Ireland in subjection that she will be willing to let her go. There is one thing the O’Dynamite won't let go of, and that thing is the skirmishing fund. A wED of coal, four feet six inches in thickness, 1s said to have been struck at Decatur, at n depth of 470 feet, by partios digging an artesian well. Prof. Aughey pronounces the coal equal to Towa conl, which may be correct, but we remember that Prof. Aughey once certified over his offi- cial signature as state university geol- ogist, that Bill Stout’s artificial stone would outlast the everlasting granite rocks—hence we always take the pro- fessor's certificates with a grain of to meet the accruing interest on this enormous debt with- out providing for the principal.

The risk is, there- fore, mainly that of others; and an immense gain derived from the advan- tages, commercially and territorially, that railroads give, accrues to the Southern people locally, substantially and without peradventure, Sagacious and enterprising men are developing their mineral resources, and bringing into profitable use their fine water powers to run cotton manufactories adjacent ;to and surrounded by fields of cotton” They thus find a market for their products at their own door and work for their people in the r gion of cheapness. 1t is a process of transformation that is now going on. The signs of it are everywhere visible throughout the South. The signifi- cance of it is too clear to be mistaken It is the revival of an entire section of the Union, and its increase in the future in population and wealth will be commensurate with the activities now making themselves felt on every side, Harlan and Wilson. Cedar Rapids Republican, August 25, The Cedar Rapids Republican says that the nomination of Mr. Harlan to the state senatorship ‘‘is understood to have au_anti-Wilson significance.” We know Mr. Harlan's views pretty intimately, and can say advisedly that he is perfectly friendly to Mr. Wil- son and his candidacy, snd that his nomination has no “‘anti-Wilson sig- nificance” whatever, He did not seek nor expect the nomination the Henry county republicans have put upon him, and we dare say has not since it was given to him or when it was given to him smid & word to any one about [ ' 4 A UG UsT 30, 1831, supporting any man for senator, Tt is a desperate clutch at straws, as we K.»r«.,..;-ny know, for the opponents of fort out of Mr. Harlan’s nomination. Keokuk Gate City, That may do to talk to the Missis sippi marines, but asa good old dea- con friend of ours used to say, “‘it's agin human natur.” Even the most sanctified human nature is scarcely able to exhibit such a sublime degree of Christian forgiveness as the Gate City indicate: We are certain Mr. Harlan hasn softened down his natural and Jaudible resentments to- wards Mr., Wilson to that extranrdi nary degree - unless he expects to die soon. Men don't ueually attain to that degreo of mellowness’ and heav- enly ripeness until they are just about ready to be gathered in, Mr. Harlan seems to be hale and sound for a man of his years, and therefore we don't quite believe in the Gate City’s representation as to his un- earthly state of mind. The editor of the Gate City is a young man and may never have heard ot some political happenings of the year 1872, We older fellows have a distinet and vivid remembrance of the desperate senatorial strugele that was held at Des Moines that winter, and we don't believe Mr. Harlan has for- gotten it. The contest between Alli- son and Harlan was severe and unpre- cedented in Towa's political history. They were very closely matched, but it was quite generally believed that Mr. Harlan would be elected. If it been left to the popular vote he would have been elected by a heavy majority. Mr. Wilson's part in that memorable contest is a matter of record. He went into the fight without the ghost of achance of an election, gathered up twenty votes, held them in a vise- lifiu grip, and then at the crisis ot the fight turned them over in a solid phalanx to Mr, Allison, thereby de- ciding the contest. That constitutes the well known bond of obligation which holds Mr. Allison and his friends so loyally to Mr. Wilson's sup- port in the present senatorial contest, when Mr. Wilson is a candidate in real earnest, and not as a decoy duck. It may be thut Mr. Harlan has fully resolved to forget and forgive, and to vote for Mr, Wilsom next winter, but if 80 we shall have his obituary duly prepared and ready for insertion at a moment’s notice. But we don’t be- lieve the story.—[Sioux City Journal. If Arthur Succeeds. Denver Teibune. If Vice President Arthur succeeds to the presidency there is but one course which he can pursuc. This will be to decline the resignations of the present cabinet when they are sent in. His succession will be a sad acci- dent. When President Garfield was nominated he was nominated not so much as a man as a representative of a policy. The issuec was squarely fought in the convention, and the men whom Garfield represented won. The policy, the majority of the re- publican convention~ declared, should continue for four years, The man who was chosen to repre- sent the great body of the republican party lies at the point of death, shot by an assassin’s bullet. Because Vice President Arthur opposed him, be- cause he used a national position to further a local fight, because he in- sisted in placing himself in a false light before the republic and the ma- jority of his party, the prospect of his unexpected advance made the presi- dential tragedy a double shock. Since then, however, he has recovered some lost ground. It lies within his vower to regain more. Arthur will go into the presidential chair in the event of the president’s death, not elected by the people, but elected by the accident of an assas- sin’s bullet. He must step over a corpse. As the head of the repub- lican party and as the chief executive of the nation, he will receive the formal respect of the nation. It lies with him to change this to a sincere respect. Just in 8o far as he follows in the footsteps of ths great man who has been stricken low he will succeed. Barbed Wire. $t. Louis Republican, The fight which the Towa farmers are making against the barbed wire monopoly 18 not limited in its interest and its effects in that state. Every state in the west is concerned in it, aud every farmer in the west has cause for wishing that the monopoly may be beaten. Experience proves that barbed wire is the best material for farm fencing that can be had, partly because of its lasting qualities when galvanized, partly because of its effectiveness in turning stock, and partly because it 1s exempt from the hungcr of fires which destroy wooden fences The material is coming into general use in the western states and 18 most highly esteemed in the prai- rie regions where timber is scarce and cattle grazing the leading interest. But barbed wire is a patented device and the monopoly that controls it ex- acts » heavy royalty upon every pound of it used. It is the old sewing ma- chine patent over and over again in another form; the inyention is so effective as to have become indis- pensable to farmers; but the grasping owners, gauging their prices, not by the cost of it, but by the needs of consumers, wring from Western farm- ers the Jast fraction of a cent per pound they can force them to pay. The lowa farmers are endeavoring to overthrow the patent by showing that the priuciple of the invention was used before the invention was patent- ed—and it may be tha’ they will suc ceed in the end; but the monopoly is wealthy and powerful; it uses the | large swmns of money which it extorts | from the farmers in the prosecutions against them; and it will continue this a8 long as it can maintain its footing in the courts, The price charged the Towa farmers for the wire is ten cents | a pound when it is stated that it can be made and sold at a profit of seven | and three-fourths cents a pound. The difference between the two prices amounts to forty-five dollars on every ton of wire used—which is regarded as a heavy and unnecessary tax on the farmer. The amount of wire needed in the state in the next ten years is estimated at 150,000 tons a year, and the difference of two and one-fourth cents a pound calculated on this will amount to $6,7560,000—which is the extra toll a single state must pay for the privilege of using a fencing mater- ial'that has become indispensible, The Ir. Wiison to try and get any com- | lowa State Farmersd Protective asso ciation is the agency through which the farmers of the state are making the battle against the monopoly —and every western farmer's earnest wishes will be on its side.
