Ungue course as THE FUTURE WHEAT SUPPLY. The question of tho future whoat sup- ply, raised by Mr. Davis in an eastern maguazine, continues to be discussed. The rather stactling statistics presented by way of showing that the United States will not bo ablo to export any whent after 1895, but will probably find it necessary to import, have not generally been accepted as conclusive. It is not clear that the wheat aren of the country is so nearly exhausted as tho statis- tieiun makes out by his figures, but even if it be conceded that ho is correct in this particular the producing power of the area occu- pied probably bo materially in- creased. But the author whose inve gations led him to the somewhat di turbing conclusion that a few years honce the wheatsupply of the world will be far bolow the demand for tion tenaciously adheres to his opinion and meets his critics with additional statisti Still the consensus of opin- ion is that in this country’ we have not in any semse of the word renchod our limit of wheat produc- tion, and it is suggested that such o theory would be exploded if farmers were assured of ono dollar a bushel for wheat on the Missis- sippi river and at eastern points with ight added from the Mississippi. It is argued that as long as farmers can do or with other crops than by raising at tho average prico of the last wws the production of wheat will not materially increase, but that a per- manont advance in price will stimulato production to an oxtent thut will all foar of scarcity., There is cortainly plausibility in this view. It is hardly question- able that the present wheat area is capa- ble of producing considerable more than is produced. An interesting contribution to this discussion relates to thas capabilities of the Canadian northwest as a wheat gion. The advocates of annexation have found what tney evidently regarded s ono of their most potent arguments in tho possibility that the United States would soon be compolled to look to that portion of the Domivion for sup- plying the deficiency 1 the home production. How little depend- can be placed upon this of supply is indicated by a writer who says thero is not a large area in the Canadian northwest where whont can be grown and ripened with ave success, or with any profit at the probi blo prico for many years to come, He states that wheat was grown at Winnipeg long beforo it was grown in Minnesota, and the quality has always the best when not destroyed by frost Winniy has had rail- way connection with Minnoapolis for 2 yoars, and during that time the Canadian government and the Canadian Pacific railway company have expended very large sums to induce auts to settle in Manitoba and the adjoining territories. Yot the entire agricultura} population botween Ontario and the Recky moun s (oes no exceod 80,000, and mofe tlers who entered upon lands in the Cansdian northwest since 1850 have abandoned them and settled on this side the boundary than now reside there as occupiors of land, Certainly such fucts do not sustain the idea that the north. of the Dominion is to become the granary from which the mations will supply the de ficioncy in their wheat production. But interosting as this question certainly is, there is doubtless to appre hend that or twenty yoars hence the find itsell per can consump- s, soon enco sourco age ay been of emig western portion no reason five or ten world will manently short of bread.

Tho situation of affairs in Newfound- land may eventuute in adding to the 1ssues between this country and Great Britain which await solution. Recently the French admiral refused to permit the sale of bait to American fishermen in St v privilege which our fishermen havo onjoyed without in- terruption for three-quarters of o cen- tury. It does not appear that this nction was intended to be offensive to our gov- ornment, but was simply an assertion of the French olaim to con- trol absolutely the waters r- nated, and meant that only uld talke bait therein, and ait taken could be sold to Frenchmen only. But this is a denial of rights claimed by American fishermen, and hitherto allowed, under the treaty made with England in 1818, It is troe France was not a party to this convention, but its imply the by England of equal rights with Irance in the fisheries in question, and although this is denied by Lranco, that fact can avdly be held to warrant England in failing to make good the obligations en- tered into with the United States. Of course this country has nothing to do directly with the tween France and England, whic be settled by arbitration. Weare simply concerned that the priviieges which have boen 5o long enjoyod by our fisher- men shall not be denied them, and it is plainly the duty of England to make some arrangement by which they shall not be denied pending the settlement of the controversy batween herand France. If the result is in favor of France, that would of course dispose of our claims upon England, but until such is the case our fishermen should not be allowed to suffer. The matter has importance in a practical way and involves a or less vital principle. There has been no intimation as to whether our govern- ment will take notice of the matter, but it is not to bo supposed that it will per- mit the intere of American fishermen to be summarily without a protest.

It goes intoeffect July 1 The ma- chinery which is to make it effective should be provided very soon ufter that date. The vroducers of Nebraska want to profit by the opportunity it presents with the forthcoming crop. The pros- pocts for alarge yield and good prices and the facilities for taking advantage of the situation as now presented, if roalized. will make this a bonanza year for producers. Under this measure every elevator, warehouse and storage building becomes a public warchouse. The producer may take his product to the warehouse man for storage and there, upon certain necessary reasonable conditions, it must be recoived. There are cortain regula- tions as to inspection, grading, charges for storage, ete., but the important fact is that the producer may under this law carry his own produce until he is willing to accept tho price offered for it. In other words, if the producer believes his product will bring more money o month lator than the day whon he hauls it to town, iastead of taking it back home or selling it at a sacrifice ho stores it to wait for a satisfactory marke When the system is in working order the stored product represented by the warehouss man’s rveceipts will b copted as security for money of which the producer may bo in immediate need. It is a great improvement upon the sub- treasury idea of the allince, and the government has nothing to do with it farther thun to reguluto the moethods of doing business. The alliances of the state will their members far more service by looking curefully after the warehouso law and the ostablishment of warehouses than by ranting over third party movements or any other of the half dozen schemes of some of their gar- rulous leaders, 3 ne- do "HE fact that a very able trio of gen- tlemen has been selocted as the commi sion to determine the boundaries of I o ana Rosebud agencies does not remove the indignation of eitizons of South Dakota who are most interested in the results of their work because their state was entively ignoved.
