THE REPUBLICAN. W. M. CHENEY, - - -Editor. riiTpAY. NOVEMBER 22. It-OS Bmlum* ot the H'tek. Dun's Review. The remarkable spr dilation In hides and leather during the past your, with its unfavorable influence upon productive industry and legiti ment business, is reviewed on follow ing pages with a fuller statement ot the prices siucc 1888 than has cvei been published. It is shown how little foundation there was for the tremendous advance in prices, what share the Uuited States Leather Co., had in it, and how one of the great est industries of the country has been affected. For some months the lack of new orders, for hoots and shoes, because of high prices and the enormous purchases made when prices were rising, has been recorded weekly. Those who wish to judge in what direction and how far prices of hides, leather, and boots and shoes may move, will find highly in structive as well as interesting, the contrast of such prices for the past eight years. Tho scare about gold exports had no real significance, and although $2,250,000 more will go out to>da,y, the stock market has been recover ing. There was and is a substantial cause of dilllculty, in the fact that exports of products have been too email to meet the greatly increased imports of merchandise. The col lapse of Kallir speculations abroad has forced many to realize on Atner c\ne held, and the impression that our government may have to borrow again also operates to our disadvan tage. But there is no local distuib ance of money markets, stocks are 80 cts. per share stronger than a week ago, commercial loans are not large, and tha demand for moving crops has been remarkably small, so that on the whole the money mar ket has shown very unusual strength and steadiness for the fall sea-urn. The government monthly crop re port has caused, us usual, rather more uncertainty .is to its interpre tation than previously existed as to crops. Tne cotton statement, lack ing account of acreage on which it is based, was of only speculative value, and the mere rumor that Mr. Keill h»d reduced his estimate of the crop actually weighed more than the Rovcijila from plantations, 25 per cent, less than last year, if of value, would indicate a orop over 7,300,000 bales, but or ganization to hold back tue crop ren ders the comparison" of leas use. The bottom fact is that even a snial lercrop than anybody expects, with the three million bales carried over, Viil assuredly prevent any famine in ecfttoa. Meanwhile the exports de cre«B 36 per cent, in quantity. Wheat perplexes the oldest inhab itant. There is really little reason bo expect a yield larger than last year'ts but Western receipts, 8,202,- 864 bushels against 4,02(!,f the Democratic organs are basoing allegations of fraud. It would be impossible to deny tLi.it these returns lo look suspicious, and we trust thai those who are interested will goto the bottom and see what is the mat ter. It is useless, however, to call •lpon Chairman Wright, of the Dem ocratic State Committee, to do it. We venture to say that he is entirely satisfied with the result, and if lit' wore not he would hardly undertake to expose frauds committed in be half of a Democratic candidate, though five other Democratic candi dates were cheated in the operation. it is a little wonder so many of our esteemed Democratic coutem pornries so fervently wish the Su perior Com t had never been born. And yet their party would have had no trouble whatever if it had shown a little breadth of judgment in mak ing nominations. Narrow and un worthy personal resentment dug the pit, and there you are.— Ex. Stubbing Aliru) ut, New lira. Whisky mid n woman was the cause of trouble out at. New Bra 011 Sunday.
