TIIE CITY ELECTION.

Kut three weeks remain before the city election occurs. Both parties have placed tickets in the field asking- the support of the people. The city is largely Republican, but the Democratic candidates are making1 a canvass among Republicans expecting them to scratch and vote for them on personal grounds. They assume that they are better men personally than their Republican opponents. To be sure this is a great presumption on their part, but nevertheless this is the racket they are giving a class of Republican voters. This is particularly true of the Democratic candidate for Marshal, who is very industrious among Republican voters making his appeals. THE JOURNAL has no desire to make any attack on the candidacy of Mr. Bayless, but it will strike the average intelligent voter who knows both candidates, as absurd that he is a superior person either morally, intellectually, politically or in any other respect to his Republican opponent, Mr. Grimes. The latter has had fifteen years' experience on the police force and his record is such as to commend him to the favorable consideration of all law abiding citizens. He has been fearless in the discharge of his duties and has been a faithful officer. On the other hand Mr. Bayless has had no experience and the people have no assurance that the peace will be better preserved or that the laws will be more strictly enforced. In fact, the chances are that an inexperienced officer would be less efficient and the laws be more loosely construed. And lastly, will it be any satisfaction to any Republican to have Democrats crowing over a victory to which Republicans lent their assistance? It would be heralded from Dan to Beersheba that a Republican city of 200 majority had been wrested by the Democracy and had endorsed its obnoxious principles. Indianapolis, and the cities of Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa. Kansas, Ohio and other States have set the pace for the Republicans of Crawfordsville. As we have rejoiced over their victories, so let us give them an opportunity to join in our rejoicings.

SKXATOK HILL. of New York, delivered his long looked for speech on the tariff Monday in the Senate, 'lie paid his respects to Senator Voorhees which will be endorsed by everybody except the cuckoos. Speaking on the income tax features of the bill Mr. llill said. "The senior Senator from Indiana, Mr. Voorhees. calls this allegation a 'noisy and resounding charge.' Let me tell him that it is not half so noisy as the constant vituperations which we hear on every hand from blatant demagogues •who are abroad in the land, loudly inveighing against the wealth of the country and impudently demanding its confiscation through every means which their devilish ingenuity can invent.

SKXATOK HIM, in his speech Monday denounced the foreign policy of the present administration, especially that relating to Hawaii, in unmeasured terms. He truthfully said that "a sense of humiliation prevailed when the project for the restoration of a deposed monarchy was unfolded by the administration, and gratification en sued when its abandonment or failure was reluctantly announced, influenced largely by an aroused public sentiment. That unfortunate contemplated policy was a blunder, and a blunder is sometimes worse than a crime."

SIMEON THOMPSON, of Shelbyville, who was on the Republican ticket two years ago, for State Statistician, is a candidate for renomination. He was formerly editor of the Lebanot Patriot but now occupies a similar position on the Shelby ville Rcitublican. He is one-legged soldier, and besides posses ses eminent qualifications for the difficult and intricate work of this important position.

THE thirty odd thousand dollars levied

toll roads therein, has all been paid The toll roads are all free and nobody is hurt. The burden was not felt, and there is not a tax-payer in the town ship who would be willing to tak back what he has paid and have the toll gates restored.

THE FUTURE[OK WHEAT tiKOW1XG. The Socialj Economist magazine publishes an able article by Wilbur Aidrich in which the author maintains that the price of wheat is more likely to go down than up. lie says: "I venture to predict that the price of wheat will not permanently advance, but on the contrary steadily deline." llis notion is'that wheat will probably decline until it reaches 25 cents per bushel. He shows that the claim made by some that the wheat grounds are now nearly all under cultivation is without foundation—that there are vast areas in the great Northwest, both in this country and British America, which will not be taken up for years, unless it is done by some organized effort of men with large capital. The same conditions, he says, exist in other countries, and American wheat raising machinery is rapidly filling its way into all the wheat growing countries of the world. This, he urges, connected with the cheap wages of other a countries, is bound to furnish the world with breadstuff at very low figures.

Mr. Aldrich has many facts to back his theory, the strongest of which perhaps, is that wheat has been steadily declining for many years from no other known cause than an over-produc-tion—a quantity so vast that the world cannot consume it. It may be urged that the price" will get so low as to stop production. But with the gang plow, the self-binder, and labor at 15 cents per day, many foreign countries can sell wheat at 25 cents and make large profits. Even in our own Northwestern States where land that yields 40 bushels to the "acre, sells for $5 per acre, the profits of wheat raising at 25 cents per bushel, would be large. The theory of Mr. Aldrich is not visionary and it may be that in the near future the farmers of the Ohio and Mississippi valley will find it more profitable to raise other crops instead of wheat. If there is any remedy for the constantly lessening of the price of wheat it is to encourage other industries until all oar wheat shall be consumed at home, and we shall not have to compete in foreign markets, with the cheap wheat of India, Russia, Hungary, and the Argentine Republic of South America.

BEET SUGAK.

It would be hard to conceive of anything more foolish than to repeal the sugar bounty and thereby destroy an industry that promises so much. Since the passage of the McKinley law numerous beet sugar factories have been erected and successfully kept in operation in Virginia, Nebraska, California,

Ttali

and other places. No industry ever started in the country heretofore has developed with such surprising apidity. The amount of sugar produced in the states we have mentioned and in Utah in the year just passed will exceed 45,000,000 pounds, more than double the amount returned for the year before. With such a wonderful increase as this, but a few years more will be required to produce at home all the sugar necessary to supply the entire demand. To repeal the bounty now and crush down this great ndustry would not only throw away all the bounty that has been paid up to this time, but it would render worthless the factories, for the building of which millions of dollars have been spent, and what would be more deplorable than these results, it would drive back to wheat raising the thousands of farmers who have gone into btet culture, and who are now profitably engaged in that kind of farming.

The purpose the Democratic party has in bringing about all these evil results is hard to understand. Is is now demonstrated by the clearest proof that we have climate and soil as well adapted to sugar making as any country in Europe, and that all we need is little governmental aid till enough factories are put in operation to fill the demand for sugar. To crush the enterprise now, by unfriendly legislation. would be like closing a lialf-de veloped gold mine with tons of rich ore in sight. We cannot believe that the sound business sense of the coun try will suffer any such thing to be done as the abandonment of the sugar bounty policy inaugurated by the McKinley law.

THE product of beet sugar last year according to the returns up to date will exceed 45,000,000 pounds. The weight of the beets manufactured into sugar the last year was 200,354 tons and the average price paid to farmer was $4.50 a ton. As the total product of beet sugar in 1887 was only 090,000 pounds, this shows a remarkable prog ress, and the product of 1893 will double that of 1892. If the bounty law was "permitted to stand the United States would be making all the sugar the people could consume, in less than ten vear.s.

THE gold reserve is only about $5 000,000 above the $100,000,000 mark The time is inevitably approaching when another sale of bonds must be made to meet the expenses of the gov eminent. During four years of the Harrison administration $290,000,000 of bonds were paid off. During one year of the Cleveland administration $50 000,000 have already been issued. This shows the difference between Demo era tic and Republican rule.

INDIANA'S WEALTH.

Indiana, with her 82.095,170,02(5 of property, stands tenth in the family of States. New York stands at the head of the list with SS.570,701,991. Then follows Pennsylvania with nearly SO,200,000,000, Illinois with $5,000,000,000 and Ohio with very nearly $4,000,000,000. Her remaining rivals are Massachusetts with §2.800,000.000.

Cali­

fornia with 82,5:5:1,000.000, Missouri with $2.397,000,000, Iowa with §2,287,000,000. Texas with $2,105,570,700. Michigan presses Indiana closely as she is worth $2,095,010,272.

It is a striking fact that in the amount of gold and silver coin and bullion, Indiana surpasses California, the El Dorado, by about $,'5,000,000. from which it will be inferred that the old coffee pot and the rural sock are still popular in the Iloosier State. In the value of real estate and improvements, Indiana stands eighth, being exceeded only by Yew York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Massachusetts, Ohio, California and Missouri.

The growth of the wealth of the State is best shown by the fact that in 1850 the total valuation of real and personal property was $202,050,203 in 1800, $528,835,371: in 1870, $1,208,180,543 in 1880, $1,081,000,000 in 1890, 3,095,170,020. The per capita valuation rose from $205 in 1850 to $950 in 1890.

IN three weeks the election in thit city will take place. Republicans should beware of over-confidence. Is true that everything is in their favor but that is no excuse for relaxing their vigilance, or taking any risks that can reasonably be avoided.
