the Fou. th of .Inl.yV
Tiik citizens of St. L"iiis will com

thought possible.
At Nebraska C ly tlx; various eom;
miltces have been appointed to ar
range for the celebration ' l fourth
of .July. Why don't Plalt.-mouth busi
ness mi ll do the same?
THK Salt Lake Tribune throws ir,t

judgment, is that it is u-oless to make
another stand fr silver in tnis coun
trv until conditions change.''

I he promotion is well earned.

There is appircntiy little p.-ogress
being made in reciprocity negotia
tions. It it reported from Washing
ton that there are several possible
commercial treaties under negotia
tin, but foreign governments seem
to be in no hurry, although u-.der the
tirilT law the timo given the state de
pa'tment in which to make reci
procity treaties and agreements will
expire in July, says the Omaha Bee.
It is stated that L-everal countries, no
tably Germany and Daly, me anxious
for a wider range for commercial re
lations and are holding olT the agree
ments until after the lime expires for
the reciprocity treaties, their reason
for this being that alter duly they can
begin negotiations -for a general com
mercial treaty which will cover all
articles agreed upon, instead of hav
ing an arrangement limited to tho articles-
named in the tariff law.
There are two provisions for reci
procity in the Dingloy law, one for a
single agreement to be promulgated
by the president, the other for n gen
eral treaty subject to ratification by
the. senate. Foreign governments
aro qui;o naturally -manifesting a
preference for the latter and it ap
pears improbable that anything will
be done under the first provision. It
must bo admitted that the reciprocity
feature of the tai iff law is a disap
pointment. It was the expectation of
the supporters of the law that it
would he largely taken advantage of.
but while there have been negotia
tions the results are not satisfactory.
Possibly the next ccrgress will deem
it expedient to modify this feature of
tho law in tho direction of matting it
more liberal.

The average daily temperature excess
has varied from 9 degroes in the enst

Tho rainfall has been abovo normal,
except in a few counties along the
southern border of tho state. Most of
tho rain fell in the last two days of the
week, and the ground was very dry in
most parts of tho state during the
greater part o! the week.
The past week has been favorable
for farm work, and rapid progress has
been made in two counties. However,
in a few localities tho dry soil the lirst
of the week retarded tho work some
what. Small grain is now nearly all
gown, and tho early sown is coining up
rather unevenly in most localities be
cause of tho dry condition of the soil
Winter wheat has improved slightly
in the extreme southeastern counties,
but most of the crop n the state is
dead. Plowing for con ha been gen
eral is till counties, and a large pro
portion of the corn ground is now
ready to plant, but as yet very little
has b3en planted.
