Wabuikgtos, Aug. 1 1. Missouri: Fair: cooler Sunday; southwesterly winds, becoming northerly. Clear up the gutters and alleys. Tub gutters in some localities are in wretched condition.

They shpuld be attended to. The conference committee continues Thx Democrats of the ninth con 4iiriof nf have nom inated James B. Weaver for coDgress. street this mornioff, no doubt feel gratified when they reflect upon the faot that Springfield has an ordinance prohibiting stock from running at large, and an official who is paid a slated sum each month to see that it is complied with. ABJOUT THE WEST.

In a late circular Banker Henry Clews, of Wall street, says: As for the damage to our corn crop, that has unquestionably been serious; but it should be remembered that the losa will fall chiefly upon two or three of the central Western states, which have ample resources of other kinds; so that the Injury will not be so severely felt as If the damage had been in purely agricultural states. Then, taking the reports at their worst, and they have certainly been exaggerated, it still seems proba ble that we shall have as large a crop ss last year (1,600,000,000 bushels); so, without considering any possible improvement in the balance of the crop, the outlook is not Sv bad as it seemed. The very low price of wheat and the competition we are meeting with from other producers are discoursing; but this, tho, has its it will undoubtedly widen the consumptive uses of wheat, and has already forced a lower cost of production. It maafford Mr. Clews some gratification to reflect that the states most seriously affected have ample resources of other kinds, but there is little comfort in his review of the situation to those who are already appealing to charity and who recall the fact upon their part that, so far as lay in the power of Wall street to effect it, their 'resources of other kinds" have been rendered unproductive if not entirely ruined.

i Mr. Clews also looks upon the condition tf the whe market from the producer's point of view with a smile of supreme satisfaction. If wheat is low the cost of production has likewise been forced down, so the wheat grower, ho thinks, or affects to think, is ralmost as well off as if It were dollar a bushel. But Wall street to thelsontrary notwithstanding, there Is not a farmer boy old enough to awing upon the plow bandies and turn nls team at the corner who does not know that the Cost of production can not be forced sufficiently low to allow the producer a margin who dls poses of his wheat at thirty eight cents a busheV Tbe situation may appear very satis factor? to that great New York and European combination of which Mr, Clews ia a part, which has a covetous eye upon the broad uteres, mines and hardy yeomanry of the West and is struggling for a complete mastery of the territory. But there Is no insplra tion in it to the men who have fought against fate and waited for justice unon those who are willing rather to allow them anything else; nor is there longer a charm in these buncombe circulars ot "other resources" and "lower cost of production" making things oven, better times just ahead always just ahead but growing harder at home to cool their impatience and send them back to sleep again.

The manner in which have been taken up by and his aids are being rather left unoared zens. Ana criticism la 1, ill ever ktv the dogs that the "catcher" cared for, or Is being SlSfft SSnK sharply criticised by some of the cltl iL HAitiinal in I li reports are true tue lustifled. To crowd a lot of helpless animals Into a close pen or box, comntratlvely wltheut ventila tion and without water, in sucn awei tering weather as we are now expert enclnir ia atL act of cruelty which should not be permitted. It Is no fault of the dogs' that tags have not been purchased' to hang about their necks, and if the city authori Has insist that they shall be im pounded until this is done they should see to it that they are treated humane i to dlly at Washington and tne cows jy not made to suner inexpressi to run at large in Springield. Tbe bje torture every hour of the day by prospect for acuange In the respective being huddled together sardines situations are about equau iln a box under me oroiung suu.

With two candidates, Oen. Joe nd CoL Dick Dal ton, already In the race for governor of should be sufficient number in the floid in the course of two years more to make tbe campaign quite an inter esting one. Pjepuucajs papers that are chuck ling to themselves over a disturbance which they expect to aee develop in the n. the atate will do well.to hve their laugh out now. There will be no laughing on that aide after the election returns are received.

In tbe shade and with the com fort provided by a palmleaf fan their 1 1 nf th nnnreasive Missouri, there W'UJCUW' weather. Complaint is being heard from some localities that the statesmen who are advertised to speak at barbecues, picnics and the like do not materialize when the time comes. It is too early yet. When election time draws mgn more interest will be manifested In tbe barbecue. But perhaps it is too often tbe case that men are advertised to speak who have not consented to do so, or even been consulted.

Whatever may be said about it the lives of our congressmen and others in high places are very busy ones, and bey are not Thcr nrobablr concluded that to put lwys free to go when called upon bim in the way of securing plice in even though the call may come from the Luube was the only means of head their own state or district icg oft hi old ambition to become presidential candidate.
