The money mar ket feels the effect of the unseasonable weather In the summer tlmo Just the same iu It did last winter when the mild wcathov re tarded the snlo of winter goods and kept largo amounts ot money nut of ciidilation. The summer has been cool nnd Backward and summer goods are not moving ns freely as they might nnd the tnonoy is locked up. Bankers nnd business men generally nro looking forward with n print deal of satisfaction to the harvest- Intr of n large crop , which vUll do mucb to enliven business of nil kinds. The very fnvorablo condition of the crops oven now Inspires conlidunco among business men and capitalists. An Important event In financial circles the past week was the publication of tbo state ments showing the condition of the sln o banks. These statements , which wcro based on the condition of busliiess on Juno ISO , nro In every respect , vorv satisfactory ajid show the state banks of Omaha to bo on a very solid basis. As compaiod with the piovlous statements made on February 21 there bus been u culn of over 10 per cent In the matter of deposits , which bankers consider as a very good showing , nnd especially so nt the pres ent time. As the state banks of this city are mostly savings institutions , tholr deposits , amounting to over $ . ' 1,000,000 , repre sent the surplus cninings of the people. Assuming that the national banks of the city have not lost in deposits sincothoir last state ment on May 4 , thcro Is now on deposit in the banks of the city of Omaha $19ii8StW0.87.

Tbo latter stjlo Is very becoming to ladies with full throats nnd graceful nocks. And the round tlnlsh with cording looks well upon young girls who have fair white skins.

I beilovo that If a meeting of the full board were called today and the quos1 Ion of the rlfibt of Miss Cou/.ius to act as sccietary submitted to them , she would win by a lnro majority. "I am neither a friend of Miss Couzlns nor in nny way hostile to Mrs. Palmer , but I bollovo Miss Courins lias been made the vic tim of gross Injustice. When she was pro posed for sccrotary of tbo board 1 was opposed to her and voted iiKalust her , and should do so uKulu \ ( she were n candidate. Uut she was fairly elected and most unfairly deposed , and I um therefore ilrm In the conviction that she should bo reinstated. The fact Is that Miss Coii/ins wns not acceptable to the line lady element of the board , bho is a woman's sulfrnRlst and has what might bo called an augulur disposition , Her peculiarities are such as to make her unpopular. It wai to this fact and not to any sins of omission or commission In her ofllco that she owes her ro- inoval. There Is llttlo doubt that the com mit too of twonty-ftvo which took her ofllco from her wa& appointed for that very pur pose liiu-o there was not ono dissenting volco when the question was put to vote. Of all these to whoso votes she owed her election not ono found n place on that committee. Tbo so-called char os drawn up by this com mittee were presented to Miss Couzins at 1:15 : on tlio afternoon and she wns ordered to submit tier answers to tnora oy 4iu : ; , jusi filtoen minutes Inter. When she failed to dose so she was declared suspended. Nemo of the Chicago papers have published the truth about the matter and such Is the prejudice airalnst Miss Cou/lns that It will bo very uitlicult for her to got Justice hero. " A STATE COM'KHBNCK OF EDITOH9. A unique experiment. Both from a political and a journalistic standpoint , will bo made in Illinois the latter part of the present month. On July ! i8 all the representatives of interior newspapers of the republican faith will meet for the purpose of formulating n programme for the coming campaign. The objeot is to secure harmony and unity of action among the thought moulders through out tno stutu and to attain ihnt end it Is not improbable tb.it a bureau will bo established to prepare and distribute among the members of the country prnss articles on state and national topics. It Is also understood that the convention will bo asked to pass upon the character ot legislation of the last general assembly , pnrticulailp the ballot reform bill , what amendments should bo proposed , etc. A largo attendance of representatives of inte rior newspapers Is expected because of the piobablo effect of the conference on the re sult of the presidential canvas in Illinois. TIID OUUEllVVTO IlIMjltACF. The wide popularity which resulted in the election of "Private Joo" Fifor to the guber natorial chair will In all probability replace him In that position for another term. His administration of the ofllco has been such that oven the most partisan of the demo cratic press hayo found llttlo to ciitlclso and his strength with members of his own party Is conceded. Among the democrats the aspirants are fairly clambering over each other in their efforts to bo sacrificed on the altar of patriot ism. Candidates for all positions to bo Illlcd by the state conventions next May are moro numerous than over uoforo so far in advance of the choice of delegates. The party , how ever , is in anything but fighting trim. Dis rupted , disorganized and In debt , the pros pects are that in this stronghold of dcmoc- lacy the untorrilied will dlsslpato their strength in factional quarrels. The split in the ratilcs lost spring which mudo possible the election of Mayor Washburno has not uccn closed up. The wounds received in that memorable campaign are still uuhcalcd do- snlto the efforts or the party medicine men. The Cregior and Hariison elements nro ns bitter us over and there seems little prospect ot reuniting the factions so long as tiioso veterans continue to lend them. Some promi nent members of the party huvo suggested that now moil bo put In the load , and this Idea Is meeting with favor. Had either Harrison or Croglor bean elected last spring , the division between the two sections woula piobably hnvo remained for many years , but si n co both are out in the cold it Is hoped that n common uungor may once moro drive thoin into a common fold. Sl'IKINO THE ENEVl'S ODNS. Ex-Congressman Joseph G. Cannon was defeated last fall largely through the bolting of n number of republican papers of the Fifteenth district and the fight they made against him. It Is now generally understood that ho intends to run again in lb'J-i and has sot out to got the belligeiont papers into hands that are Icnown to bo friendly to him. A short time since ho secured the Danville Commercial and also started the Champaign News and now the Arcola Uocord has boon purchased from Colonel C. V. Wall , the leader In the light last fall. An editor filcndly to Cannon Is to take charge of it. Other antl-Cunmm papers , it is said , nro being approached and asked to soil to the Cannon syndicate. THE NOHTitiiux memo OIIDIXAXCB novn. Considered from nn aldornianlo standpoint it was a very shabby trick that Mr. Culler- ton played on his fellow-patriots when ho slipped through a big grant of right of way to the Northern Pacilio without any of thorn knowing anything about it until ft was all over and done. According to every prece dent and every rule of ethics long established in that respectable body the bringing down of such royal guino 03 * ono member without .giving his conforos n single "whack" at It was nothing less than an outrage. The itmilt Is that his brottnen hnvo kicked up such n row us hasn't boon seen for many n long day , mid if hot words could phase that doughty veteran , Alderman Cullorton would cio this hnvo been reduced to nshcs. As It is , however , this Ulysses of tbo council points serenely to the record of the passage of the ordinance and Inquires blandly lu the Immortal language of Mr. Tweed ; "SVtwt nro you colng to do about It !

In his Injudicious Mndlson square spcc.ch ho wrought raUchtof , not only to the people of this state , but to the entire west , sayi the Council Bluffs Nonpareil. In an unfortunate moment ho struck n blow nt western develop ment from which it will take joarn to re cover. Ho scared away the investment of eastern capital In the west , Its most proilt- nulo source of employment , and by this loss of conlldenco on the part of eastern capi talists moro than ono well-to-do western man nas been brought face to face with ruin. Kls Now York speech was worse than n Texas tornado or the hot wind of Kansas. From these natural visitations recovery iu ono sea son is possible , but for the governor of this great commonwealth to plant himself on suoh an cironcous record , the slow pro cess of years is necessary to overcome its blighting olTect. What possessed him to de liver such an address , hurtful alike to the people of Iowa , whether independent , demo cratic or republican i In his speech ho snld : "According to the most reliable statUtlcs at tainable nt this tlmo fX ) per cent of the mnlo population over ten years of ago In Iowa nro engaged In agricultural pursuits. " The pres ent population ot Iowa is l,011bOa. Of this vast number ho lakes the testimony of only 800 farmers , who claim they are conducting their farms nt n loss , as the true condition of the agricultural Interests of this state. Why not with equal force taito that of the Hood swept districts the present year ! With this minute number of our population ho drew n lugubrious tale of disaster whoa U had no exIstence - Istonco as a fact. Ho said : "It is estimated by these making thcao reports that the cost of producing an aero of of corn for market is $4 ; that the nverago crop for live years has been thirty-three and a third bushels , nnd statistics show that the average pi Ices of this corn in our local mar kets , soon after harvest , during stlch period has been li. ! cents per bushel , making the entire vnluo of the crop when murkotod $7.33 or 70 cents less than the actual cost of production at market rates of labor. What Is true of the production of corn hi Iowa Is equally true of all the great staples raUud on her farms. When wo consider tbo Immense capital Invested In the farms of n single stutoT nnd are told that for llvo whole years it has not paid enough to compensate tbo labor employed , it is ap parent that no other .business iu the country could have withstood such n condition of ad versity during so piolouged n period. 1 have spoken of the condition ol agiicultural indus tries In my own stato. I have called atten tion to the fact that for years these indus tries have been prosecuted at a loss instead of a proflt , and I nfllrmltnout fnar of con tradiction that thcro Is no state iu the union where the great staples of agriculture , the productions that supply necessary food for man and beast , can bo moro cheaply pro duced. " This Is the picture drawn by the governor. Now what are the facts as to the year IS'.IO ono of the governor's' five years of disaster ?

The difference between his llg- ures and the standard estimates nro too glar ing. His claim that the coU of producing an acre of corn is greater than the homo value , Is not sustained. The difference between the homo value is $ J.8 < ) per aero , or ! T > Jf per c'jnt above the cost , claimed by the governor. The percentage of difference between the home value per bushel and the go > crnor's alleged market price Is 81 per cent in favor of the bomo vnluo , as figured by the agricul tural department It Is apparent thata states man who will wanaer so far from bis ease on the ordinary agricultural statistics of his state ought to bn retired on general princi ples , and as an unsafe loader , so ho can never repeat the mUchiof wrought by his speech at n Now York uauqdot.
