June 9. ls3. iiie jncw york Tribune comments at length upon the action of the New iork republicans in settling their diffi culties, ii ud arrues that the Dlan de vised uy the committee, by which in dependent republicans can attend the primaries and be recognized, was both wise and fair. The trouble is the same in New York state with both political organizations; and occurs in all politic al parties; there always was and will ue contesting iacuons wiinin every po litical organization, which will strive for the loaves and Ashes, and control of the party. One of these factions has to be defeated, and very often the re sult is the defeated party is unwilliner to ncquiese in the will of the majority, but bolting and independent action so- XXr: majority of the cases this independent action is entir'.-ly unwarranted by the facts In the case ; and is used by the defeated partj as an excuse for gratify ing the feelings of envy and disappoint ment, incident to its deteat. This is known and recognized in politics, as the rule or ruin policy: notably, this was the case in New York and Pennsyl vania, when the Independent parties in those states at the last general election succeeded in defeating Judge Folger and Gen. Beaver.' . In Pennsylvania the leaders of the Independent republicans conceived their mistake, and signify their intention ot working with the regular party. In New York, "terms have been proposed, it appears, and agreed upon, by which the republican party can meet the enemy with an un broken front. These lessons teach the republican party that their differences can. all be adjusted among themselves if they are met with a spirit of tolera tion. Among the masses of the re publican party of Nebraska, we believe, there are no differences existing, either as to the methods by which the party is being governed and controlled as an organization, or upon the questions and issues of the day. And although there may be differences existing be tween the gentlemen whom the masses of the party have elevated to place and power, we believe these . masses are taking very little inte-est in those dif ferences, whatever they may be; but look upon them, rather as personal matters of very little moment to the party. FREE TRADE AND PROTECTION IN OUR COLLECES. It has been the boast of our free trde friends, which has been emphasized by the recent free tra.e convention of theorists who met at Detroit, that no respectable school of learn iug iu this country would place anybody by a pro nounced free trader in the chair of his tory and political economy, and while this statement is not tr ire iu point of fact, yet the matter of tree trade has been carried to such and, offensively aggressive extent at Yale College that the attention of the country has been arrested and directed to the matter, and the eastern press have commented freely upon the matter, so that Cornell University has lately engaged the Hon. Ellis II, Roberts a strong protectionist, to present the protection view of this question to the studeuta of that insti tution, which will, in all probability, result in the theory of trade between nations, of the globe being treated in a fractional manner by our schoo't;this is a sensible step, taken by the Cornell faculty, and is noticed with approba tion bytheNe York Tribune and other leading journals of the east. A DEMOCRATIC OPINION. Columbus, Ohio, June J4 The In ter Ocean correspondent met Mr. Allen W. Thurman, sou of the old Roman, this morning, and after the usual cour tesies, 1 asked Mr. Thurman what he thought of the outlook. " Don't ask me now, us I am head oyer heels in business. I must catch up with my work, as I have just squan dered one week's good time in trying to get the convention to nominate a democrat for governor, but it refuses to do so, and nominated neither , a re publican nr a democrat, but a wiggler in politics,' - . t'What do you think of the democrat "The convention was nothing lets than a mob. Hoadley's nomination was nothing but the work of trickery, and everybody knows it." l lntIl,.4nit 1 ...... .. : 1 1 4 - i the democratic ticket; how is that?" "There is no democratic ticket to support, and, as between Hoadley and Foraker, I prefer to vote lor an open and honest republican, who was uomin ated honestly, than support a man like Hoadley, who is not a democrat and secured his nomination by the most uu- blushing means means that would cause one of the disciples of Book waiter to blush. I am too busy this morning to talk about this thing, but you may put it down that I will not only vote for Foraker, but I will work as hard to elect him as I did to nominate General Durbin Ward, and you know I have been very industrious of late. "How do the rest of vou bwurbons like Mr. Hoadley ?" "I can t stop now, but have only this to say, you will find the woods full of just such democrats as I, and we are going to work for the election of John B. Foraker, for governor, and all li 1 cau't stop his election. Mark my word, we will bury Hoadley so deep that he will cause no more trouble." hoadley will stick. New York, June 21. The Herald publishes the following: "Cincinnati, June 23. To the editor of the Herald : Please contradict the statement that I purpose to withdraw. I shall stick and 1 hope, win. Nothing has happened to disgust Geokqk Hoadi.ey. Chicago Inter Ocean. The above don't look so wonderfully unanimous and harmonious in the democratic camp as our friend Dr. Mil ler would have us believe; in fact, look for the republicans of Ohio, under the gallant leadership of Judge Foraker, is truly flattering; the platform has the right ring to it and with such a ticket as has been nominated, their success is already assured. WHAT FOOD WILL COST. From the New York Tribune. Bright sunshine and warm weather have begun to make wheat cheaper. The weakness ot the markets, here and at the west, has been enough to arrest attention and to cause heavy lofses to many who have confidently operated for higher prices. A t first it Wi.s im- gined that the weakness m wheat lght be out of tympathy v.iii the collapse in lard, but it does uot ap peal that the holders ot lard were also holders of grain ; iu fact, it is stated that McGeoch was a leading 6ellcr of wheat, and declared las ability te make good all his contracts in that product, even while confessing failure in lard. Hence it is suspected that, being relieved by failure Ironi present pressure as to his lard contracts, he has been in the bet ter position to win back part of his los ses by more vigorous attacks upon the price of wheat. At all events, some body attacked with vigor on Monday, and prices at Chicago fell about 2 cents per bushel. But it is not of much mat ter to the publia what the immediate cause of a decline may be, or whether this or that speculator eats or gets cat en. The larger and far more important question is whether the conditions war rant consumers in expecting a lower or higher price for wheat. No doubt it was a surprise to many that the wheat market declined soo uf. ter the publication of the Jure report of the Agricultural Burp- u, which indi cated that there buld be " a deGcieu 'cy in the nter wheat crop of 1883, "as Compared with condition June 1, '1882, equal to about 95.762,328 bushels, "from which, deducting the increase in "the spring wheat crop, there is a prob "able deficiency in the 4otal crop of "winter and spring whMt of 86,752, "228 to 89,262,328 bushels.". Most per sons overlooked the fact that this esti mate took no account of the surplus re maining unconsumed and unsold from the large crop ot 1882- If tliat crop was 502,000,000 bushels, and if 61,000, 000 bushels had been consumed for seed, and 4.3 bushels per capita, or about 234,000,000 bushels, for food in thiscoun try there would still remain 207,000,000 bushels for export or for surplus. "The quautiy exported is of ficially stated; for eleven months ending May 31 it is 139,825,258 bushels, and for June the quantity will not exceed the 6,6000,000 bushels shipped in June 1882. Hence there remains for surplus from the crop of 1882 not less than GO, 000,000 bushels, It is true that stocks on hand were reduced lower about July 1, 1S82, than at any other time for many years. Per haps as much as 20,000,0v0 bushels might be added to the stock on hand without making it undesirably large. But the rest must be added to the yield of 1S83 to ascertain the quantity avail able for consumption or export during the next twelve months. Now the es timate of the Agricultural Bureau, unfavorable as it was. indicated a yield this year of 412,000.900 to 415, 000,000 bushels, so tint the probable supply, even upon the basis of that es timate, after adding 20,000,000 bushels to the stock on band. The figures giv en already show that the quantity ex ported during the past year and the consumption for food and seed have not exceeded 435,000,000 bushels. The average export price of wheat for the least ye ir has been only SI 12, and yet only about 140,000,000 bushels have been exported, through the ex ports from the last large crop that of : 880 amounted to 186,000.000 bushels at an average of about 81 UK Per bushel. This suggestion that -we can not expect larger exports tnan those of last year unless we are prepared to sell at a latter price, or the crops abroad provti LyHer. At present the indica-1 - , hf tho ornn ahrnart wtlSuai-l much more satisfactory than they were last year, if so, prices here must rule lower, or the quantity exported can hardly be an great. But a decrease in the quantity demanded for export would add to the surplus to be carried over to another year. It must bead ded that these calculations aie based upon the June report of the Uiseau o agriculture which was commonly thought more unfavorable when it ap peared that the facts warranted, and that very helpful weather has been re ported from the great wheat-crowing districts since that time. Hence it does not seem unreasonable to believe that consumers will have moderately cheap wheat for the next yeaj, if the weather cuntinues favorable until the close of the harvest. But very great changes might yet be made by drouth or storms. Ilon. N. K. Griggs, whom many of our exchanges are commending for Su preme Judge, passed through Crete on Monday. We know of no man with whom the Republican party would be more certain of winning than with N. K Griggs. We know of his making but one mistake. That was leaving his fine law business and accepting a civil position in Chemnitz, Germany. In the face of his integrity and ability we can forgive him all that. Saline County Standard. A discussion is just now going on as to tho holding of the Democratic Na tional Convention; whether it shall be held in Chicago or Saratoga. The former city seems to have the strong' est adherents, and will probably sret the coveted 7uaor. Senator Thurman is reported as say ing that the only regret of his life is that he ever went into politics. When the Democratic party reflects upon the spectacle it has made of itself during the last quarter of a century it doubt less experiences the same pensive re gret. BANKS. JOHN FITZGERALO, A. W.
