The republican state committee at Uieir meeting m Indianapolis, decided to call the district convention on the third Tuesday in January. This will be for the purpose of electing new members of the state committee. The precinct meetings will occur not later than the second Tuesday of the same month. The basis of representation will be one delegate for each 200 votes cast, in 1894. The wheat crop of 1895, as given bv Dnrnbusck’s list, was 305,795.000 quarters. This is less than 5,000,000 quarters larger than the world’s wheat crop of 1892. On July 1, 1892, the price of wheat in New York was only cents, but on July T, T 895, the price was only 73J cents, a decrease jof 15| "cents a bushel. Does the increase of If per cent, in the world’s wheat crop between the two periods account for the decrease of 18 per cent, in the value of wheat within the same period? Exports are growing smaller and imports are increasing. The consumption of foreign wool is increasing and that of domestic wool is declining. Larger quantities of dry go uls are being brought into the country from foreign lands, and fewer domestic dry goods are being manufactured iu the United States. These are sonie of the results of the Wilson Tariff bill, which wasTo have increased exports of American manufacturer articles and thus promote the prosperity of The country. - If there has been any doubt as to how Gov. McKinley stood on the tariff question be certainly dispelled it in his Marietta, O, speech. Here is the way he tersely express ed his ideas'. on the; subject: “I want a tariff high enough to sustain American condition, American manhood and American womanhood. “I want a tariff that will measure the difference in wag s between European countries and our own. “I want a tariff imposed on every thing we make in this country*. “I want a tariff imposed on every thing we cannot produce.” Hera is a good pi auk for a national platform. In general terms a better state me tit of the Republican policy could not be made. WOOL A EEPIILSEXTATIYH CASE The woid clip lias been decreased a hundred million pounds and the price of the clip has been lowered from 7 to 27f cents. Still some papers assure ns that tariff reform is an excellent thing for this iudustry. It is one of the few articles, in fact, the only prominent one, which has had thealleg eti benefit of a full democratic tariff. Wool was placed on the free list. There is not a cent of duty left on it. It is under a strictly democratic tariff. Nearly all the other articles that are from time to time cited in the newspapers have some portiou of the protective duty left standing to their benefit. It should be borne in mind that the Wilson bill is not a democratic tariff. It is simply an emasculated republican | tariff. It was a botched republican tariff w en it came from the House. In the Senate Mr. Gorman and his associates added over 600 amendments, nn st W • t iotjo 've amendments,Tor Maryland has many factories td protec.i. In this «ay the democratic party is now defending duties which are t wot, birds at least republican, only they are unevenly i r; : . \

distributed, favoring certain sectional industries. But in tbe case of wool the democratic party had the courage of its convictions and took off the whole duty, since it was largely a northern product. The wool clip under the McKinley law amounted to 364,000,000 pounds. This year it is reduced To 264,000,000. At the same .-time' the price was reduced from 7 to cents, depending upon TheT grade of wool. —lowa State~ Begister.

MR. OWEN AND THE COVERNORSHIP.

Logansport Journal. the friends of Mr. Owen here at his home to observe the unanimity of sentiment among the masses of the people of the State in favor of his nomination to head the ticket in 1896. All newspaper forecasts contain a proviso as to his possible candidacy and even avowed candidates a*e inserting a condition in their own horoscope. The fact that he is the most forcible campaigner in Indiana; that he has had a wide experience in public affairs in Congress and in Indiana politics; and most of all that he made and won the fight for State leadership iu the last convention brings to his support largely the sentiment of the State.

Notwithstanding this most favorable situation Mr. Owen has not found it advisable to make announce any decision in the matter, and the fact that the- election -will not occur for more than a year yet really makes any decision at the present time,; or any pledge fo.i the support of this candidate or that premature, Two things have made a decision in favor of a candidacy for the head of the ticket uncertain at any time: Mr. Owen’s previous illness and the present illness of Mrs. Owen, Mr. Owen’s unfortunate ilnessl at the opening of the campaign of 1894 pieveutcd work of any End on his part in that campaign, yet he was elected by the largest majority ever given any candidate for Secretary of State on any Ticket in Indiana. Were he, however, unable to lead the party in a brilliant campaign on the platform iu 1896 he would not permit the use of his name for the head of The ticket That condition is hardly worth considering now, since his health is fully restored and better thairiat any jtime in the last twenty years. The other condition is far more serious. Mrs Owen’s illness has kept Mr. Owen at her bedside for two or three months and a continuation of her serious illness will prevent him from devoting his entire time to th© success of the ticket, as he would feel pledged to do should he receive a nomination for first place. With the conditions such as they are it is hardly necessary to add that newspaper announcements that Mr., Owen will or will not be a candidate are authorized. That he is giving the matter very little consideration at the present time, such is the condition of Mrs. Owen’s health and so remote is the campaign of 1896, may however, be authoritatively stated. - J.
