THE PRICE OF WHEAT
tfn DUDTTDT iniMTOH
.
When the Latter Is "Successful the
Former Sells High.
Jujor J. W. Wham Presents
j Some Yery Interest
'.' Ing Fignres.
While the argument has not been
strenuously Insisted upon by the Re
publican papers that the return of the
publican papers that the return of the
the sole cause of the rapid advance In
the price of wheat, there is one thing
certain, and that Is that high prices
(or cereals always occur when the Re
publican party is in control, and under
Ut fostering hand the mills are fired
and running. On this subject Major
J. W. Wham, of the United States
army, and an expert on the subject.
recently said in an Interview:
"In 1RS3, the year prlqr to Cleveland's
first election, tho average price of
wheat was 91 cents per bushel. In 1884,
the year after his election, the aver
se price was 64 cents per bushel, a drop
of 27 cents, from which price It only
rallied slightly during his entire admin
istration, selling the last year at an
iverage of 6S cents per bushel.
'Harrison was elected In 1SR8, mid
wheat immediately bounded back to a
point two cents higher than when
Cleveland was first elected, the average
price for 1SSS being 93 cents per bushel,
from which point it only slightly re
acted, the average price during the last
two years being Si cents per bushel.
"Cleveland was re-elected In 1S92, and
thore wus nn immediate drop of lit
cents per bushel, continuing on down
until Vi cents per bushel was reached.
the lowest during the century. Mil
lions of men were out of employment.
Consumption necessarily fell off. Keon-
omy. even In the use of bread and Its
kindred luxuries, was forced.
"Compare the per capita consump
tion In the Vnlted States during the
first three years of Harrison's adminis
tration, .when all the wheels of com
merce and enterprise were hot with ac
tion, and the first three years of Cleve
land's Inst administration, when the
conditions were absolutely reversed,
ind you have a falling oft of one and
one-quarter bushels per capita during
the Cleveland administration.
"Our population now amounts to rery
nearly 80,000,000, which would make a
difference In consumption of about 100,-
000,000 In favor of the Harrison admin
istration. "The per capita consumption of wheat
during the last year of Arthur's ad
ministration and The last year of Har
rison's administration, respectively.
was nearly six and one-half bushels-
call it six and one-quarter bushels;
multiplying our 80,000.000 of population
ty this we have 600,000,000 buBhels of
wheat necessary for our home con-
tumptlon.
"Our annual average production of
wheat during the last ten years being
unut 470,00u,000, leaves' us short an
nually about 80,000,000 bushels. There
was jl tariff under the old McKlnley
law of 25 cents a bushel on wheat.
which, being re-enacted into the Ding
ley law, seems, independent of the for
eign shortage when taken In connec
tion with these facts, to give the Amer
ican farmer the 'cinch' on tin? world's
wheat market,"
EI3 IMAGINATION.
It Appears That lr. Swallow Has Had
Ono For Soino Tlmo.
From the Cleariluld Huffman's Journal.
A leading member of the Methodist
ohuch of this place tells a story on
the Prohibition candidate for state
treasurer that Illustrates the method
that gentleman had of doing business
many yearn ago and likewise today.
Ue was peshllng elder in tho Al
toona, district und much opposed to tho
Juniata valley camp meeting, at thut
time very popular among tbe Method
ists of tills section. He was stopping
!th a Methodist family In Altoona who
were Meat friends of the well conduct
1 camp meeting, anl who constantly
upheld the same as against ho thrusts
of the presiding older. The dav be
fore the opening of the camp he wrote
'or the Altoona papers a scathing crlt
icuni or the camp meeting, and with
held his name. When the vaners cir
culated among the Methodists the
morning of the opening they were sur
prised to find this article. The ladv
took the paper to the break-fast table
here Dr. Swallow was seated and be
Rn commenting severely upon the un
called for attack, and Bhowed the same
io the preacher, remarking that there
as n.) grounds for nnvthlnir a.nbl
therein. The preacher expressed regret
mat me enmp meeting had thus been
Wsalkd, and remarked that whoever
written the article had drawn
argely upon his Imagination for thp

"wis this good lady learned that the
man who "had drawn on his imagina
tion" was none nlher thnn tin ivhn l,n,l

ftntlc discoveries since that time, of

The best thine tnai can happen to
American manufacturers is that they
shall hare a monopoly of the home
market first of all. The worst thing la
that foreigners shall occuoy this mar
ket so largely that the Americans, to
meet them, must cut prices below the
profit point and then almost give away
the surplus to Europeans. The notion
. that trade over seas Is a sign of pros-
perlty Is a British notion. It Is pro
' mulgated in this country by free trad
ers, who regard the British stamp upon
anything, from an economical Idea to
, a high hat, as an assurance of correct
ness. We do make some things which
. we can export at a profit, because we
beat the world in producing them, but
this la not true of the mass of our
manufacturers. Philadelphia (Fa.)
Textile Record.
The only hope the Democracy now
has Is in some unexpected disaster. It
wants a combination of strikes with the
weevil in the wheat, an early frost, a
coal famine, a European tariff war
against America to upset the stock
market, a pinching out of the gold
supply all these things coming to
gether would ralso Its drooping spirits.
But short of that there seems to be
no opening for another Democratic raid
on the ofllces and the national Indus
tries. Snn Francisco (Cal.) Chronicle.
' There Is no need to worry about the
Dlngley law. The men who drew that
measure knew what they were doing.
, They declared that it would raise reve
' nue enough to support the government,
and that will be tho result, after the
law has got to work fully. There will
be no bond Bales to provide money with
' which to run the government, nnr will
' the nation's credit be lmpared in any
J way. Cleveland (().) Leader.
The enactment uf the Wngley law
j was a wise net because tho government
' needed a sufficient revenue for Its sup
port, unci experience had taught the
! efl'ei llvenoss of a protective tariff In
building up the industries of the coun
try. UuiMness i: greatly Improved and
j prosperity is returning because of the
j necessity of such a law and the sense
l of security growing out of It. Wash
j Ingtun (1. C Star.
"iiccnuee It my deliberate Judg
j incut that tho prosperity of America
is mainly flue to its system of protec
tive laws. I urge that Germany hus
now reached the point where It is
necessary to Imitate the tariff system
uf the United States." Bismarck.

Ilnrrlshurg, Sept. 2. There has been
no lull In the excltliiK train of political
events during the past week. Organ
Iced opposition to the machine Is
HprlngiiiK up nil over the mate, Its
Intent development beliiK In Pittsburg,
where former friends of Senator Quay
have within the past few days placed in
nomination Mr. William H. Thompson
as a candidate for state treasurer
apnlnst James S. Iteacom.
The remarkable thing in connection
wilh this movement Is tbe fact IV.at It
has been engineered, nnd Is being car
ried forward, by tbe men nnd organi
zations that formerly were the sole
source of Senator Quay's ttrcnglh In
Pittsburg. This independent move
ment has for Its support the Muni
cipal League of rittsluiig. niul all that
body of self ivipectlng Iiidi pen.i.'it s
who gave Si nntor Quay an nnnualitled
support IvciMi ie of his promise to in
troduce various reforms in state poll
ties. As n I' sult i f Quay's failure to
keep his word with these men tley are
now iiiiiiilieri'l among his bitterest po
litical eie'inies, ami thus another potent
power iigiiinsi luuislnni lias In eti in

attempting to compel the aid of the
national administration In mntters
purely local, must yet lead to a purer
nnd
nobler munagement of public nf-
fairs
if our republic: i.i to permanently

JIUST CALL A HALT.
"We must call a halt on the appall
ing use of money In polities, utid as
your purpose in one of reform upon
high principles, it is apparent to all
that the use of money, so common to
such contests, Is tu have no place in
this canvass. .
"The state Is sound'at heart, nnd tho
Influence of tho church and fireside,
tho vote of the law abiding people, who
believe lhat man's chief end is not to
make meney nnd enjoy It forever, or
for the advancement of a party by dis
honesty and corruption, are the In
fluences which will determine, our na
tional, state' and local affairs.
"To such ends, and with the desire
of political preferment farthest frotft
my mind, promising. If elected, the
same fidelity to the mate that 1' would
give to any other trust. I am willing
to serve as your candidate, accepting
election or defeat as a privilege, If by
so doing the cause of good government
may be advanced In even the slightest
degree. I am very truly yours.
"WILLIAM It. THOMPSON."
This independent movement against
the machine is a very formidable thlnn
when it is considered that next year It
will appear in the contest as a full
Hedged political, anti-maeliine power.
It will poll at least 2 per cent of the
Republican vote of the state, and this,
will give it full and legal standing us a
political power. Its projectors, wiio art
leading bosun ss men of i'ltlsluirg.
maintain that tiny are not in politics
for fun. und that they will be found
In tin- fight next ycur.
Dining the past work these Inde
pendents have been looking fm- a gmul
man to run In opposition to Major Levt
1. Mcc'auley as a can lidate for au
ditor general. They have appeah-d to
the Husiiiess Men's League. I lie YYunil
maker nun of Philadelphia, and tin
state, to assist them, but tic leagtn
is favorable to Major Mct'auloy. and
has declined to enter Into any scheme
to (nit Up n candidate aga'nsl him. Tin
Wanainakci- men, despite all of tin
falsehoods and misstatements of tin
machine lenders, do all their lighting
