Dwglas county will bo the battle ground of the campaign tills yonr nnd tlio outcome In this county will determine the fate of the republi can patty in tlio slate not only for this year but for several years to come. Thoughtful republicans everywhere realize , that It is almost impcrativoto head the slate ticket by n injjn who either hulls from Omaha or possesses the confidence and rnspcct of our citi zens to such an eminent degree as to assure him support from nil elements of our population. Will Douglas county republicans throw away the opportunity for miming nnd uleoliii ! : the next governor , or will they allow selfish schemers and reckless leaders to divide the party at the outset by pending a mob to Lincoln instead of a compact , harmonious delegation that would command attention and exert in- lluonco ? Will Douglas county republicans invite - vito dissension and disaster , or will they for once discard all factionalism for the puke of success ? The caucuses of Saturday indicate n disposition in many of the wards to retire - tire the professional delegate and bring to the front a class that has up to re cently kept aloof from caucuses and con ventions. Wo trust that the advent of this now element moans bettor things for the party. In some wards there is , however , a manifest attempt to thrust elements of discord into the convention and endeavor to prevent n union of all the factions in favor of Judge Crounso , who stands head and shoulders above any other candidate in point of ability and popular confidence. This latter statement does not disparage the abili ties of men who after urgent requests have positively declined. AMKKIGAN IIV//MT KXI'ORTS. The exports of wheat from the United States during the past fiscal year have been 224,831,48:5 : bushel ? . The quantity exported last year was only 100,000,000 bushel ? , and the greatest amount sent abroad in any year previous to the Irtst was in 1881 , when the exports wore over 150,009,000 bushels. It is estimated that in spite of the unprecedented exports of last year there is now oO',000,000 bushels of wheat in this country that , has been carried over. The highest price .touched for No. 2 red winter wheat in Now York durincr the fiscal year just closed was in August last , when it wont up to 81.131 per bushel. In March it began to do- clmo rapidly and in Juno the highest price obtainable Was ! )3 ) ? cents per bushel. It is predicted by close ob servers of the conditions which govern the market that the largo yield of this year foreshadowed by the government reports , together with a surplus of 50- , 000,000 bushels loft over from last year , will necessarily result in placing upon the market a supply of American wheat far exceeding the foreign and homo de mands. This must moan reduced prices to the farmer unless there is a change in the conditions both at homo and abroad. The outlook for a good corn market is moro f.-.vorablo. The crop will be a fair ono , and notwithstanding that a consid erable quantity of old corn remains on hand thogicatly increased foreign de mand is likely lo hold prices up to a fair figure. The consumption of American corn in Europe is steadily and rapidly increasing , and it is to bo expected that it will continue to do so as a result of the enlightenment of the poorer classes there as to Its merits as an article of food. In this respect corn has an ad vantage over wheat. T11K 1'IXKKllTON DKFKXSE. It is entirely natural that the Pinker- tons should defend their business , and it was to bo expected that having had ample notice of an investigation by a committee of congress they would make at least a plausible statement of their case. They have shrewd lawyers in their service and they are able to com mand the frlondly" opinions of others whenever needed. They are thus at all times ready to meet nny inquiry that may bo proposed regarding their opera tions. The statement submitted by the Pinkerton - korton brothers to the judiciary com mittee of the house of representatives was carefully prepared , but none the less it is subject to criticism. The as sertion that the agency selects the men employed in strike work with great care and only after a full investigation of their character nnd antecedents is at least questionable , white there can bo no doubt of the fact that untrust worthy men have been so employed. Wo believe it can bo shown , also , that the statement is not true that Plnkorton men have never wantonly or recklessly fired a , single shot in any of the strikes in which they have boon employed. If we are not mistaken there have been several instances in which the people have boon IIrod upon , with fatal olTout , by these so-called detectives without Bufllclont provocation. It is true that none of them have boon convicted , but the explanation of this is not diltlcult. The ramifications of the Plnkorton de tective system are very thorough. With regard to the force sent to Homestead , the Pinkerton brothers say that they contracted to furnish the men only upon the condition that they wore to bo dworn in as deputy shorllls. Tha statement to the committee further siyn : "They did not go Into the state of Ponnjylvanla na an armed body or force , and wo should not have permitted or assented to this. There was no in tention or purpose whatever of arming them until they were on the property of the company at Homestead , and until and unless they had boon uworn in as the sheriff's deputies. " It is also stilted that the 'men wore instructed that tlu-y should not bo armed unless previously deputized by the sheriff If all this be true no attention was paid to the orders of the Messrs. Pinkerlon , fur the facts live thut the force gent to UoinestL'ad did Invade the state of Penn sylvania , as an armed body , having no authority from the Hhoriff , Hint they d d not wr.lt to icncli the property of the Carnegie company before b ing armed , and that in an attempt to outer the properly they fired upon the workIngmen - Ingmon with Winchester rlllos and killed six of thorn. The spoclouti plou of the Pinkortou attorneys In behalf of the system they nro hired to defend will not mislead the intelligent judgment of the American people. Nobody questions the right of individuals or corporations to provide for the protection of tholr properly , but this is to bo done in the regular way , agreeably to the proscribed forms of law. The existence of this right docs not warrant Iho employment of an armed force recruited at largo by pri vate parlies and acting independently of the law , as was undeniably the case with the body of Plnkorlons sent lo Ilomostoad. The suproino court of Pennsylvania has declared such n body lo bo practically rlolors , and Ibis is the proper vlow to take of it , Iho opinion of Iho Pinkerton attorneys to the contrary notwithstanding. The statement of the Plnkorton brothers to the commllloo of the house of representatives will fall to convince the American people that tholr system of armed mercenaries is ono that ought to bo tolerated. Tllfl ISSUI ] H'mCtAMJJ. . When the president shall have ap proved , as undoubtedly ho will do , the legislation of congress which provides for securing reciprocal advantages for Iho cilizcns nnd vessels of the United States In trnlllc through Canadian waters , there will bo created an issue the result of which will bo awaited by the people of both countries with un common interest. In order to understand the true character - actor of the question involved , it is nec essary to say that by article xxvil of the treaty of Washington , concluded May 8 , 1871 , it was provided that citizens of the United States should have the same right to use the Canadian canals that was accorded lo the citizens of Canada. The language of the article is that "tho goveinmont of her Britannic majesty engages to urge upon the government of the Dominion of Canada to secure to the citizens of the United States the use of the Wnlland , St. Lawrence and other canals in the Dominion on terms of equality with the inhabitants of the Dominion ; and the government of the Unilod States cnpigos that the subjects of her Britannic majesty shall enjoy the use of the St. CInir Flats canal on terms of equality with the inhabitants of the United Slates. " The obvious purpose of this article of the treaty of Washington was to give the people of the United States the same right to use the Domin ion canals that was accorded to the people ple of Canada , and for this concession the United States granted what was deemed to bo equally valuable privileges to citizens of Canada in American waters. As was stated in the house of repre sentatives a few days ago by Mr. Blount , chairman of the foreign affairs com mittee , Canada has utterly failed to re spect her obligations under this article of the treaty of Washinglon. On the contrary , she has for years exacted trlb- ute from American vessels in clear violation lation of the stipulations of the treaty. As was stated by Mr. Hitt , another member of the foreign affairs commit tee , "American trade is subjected to just ten times the burden to which Canadian trade is subjoctoa in passing through the Wolland canal. Twenty cents a , ton is levied upon all ; and when the cargo has passed through , if it goes to an American port , nothing is hoard of this toll , but if it goes lo a Canadian port for export 18cents is handed back. " In this indirect way , said Mr. Elitt , for every $5,000 paid in cargoes going lo Canadian porls $50,000 is exacted from the grain raisers and shippers of our country. A heavy burden is thus im posed upon the commerce of the north and northwest. The object of the logisla- lion by congress is to apply to Canadian citizens using our canals the same rule which they apply to American citizens using Canadian canals. There appears to bo a disposition in Canada to resent the action of this'gov- ornment , but how general it is remains to bo developed. The probability is that after serious reflection , having become convinced that the United States means all that is expressed in Iho legislation of congress , the Dominion government will conclude that the wiser courao ia to accede to the demands of this country and make good the treaty obligalions enlcrcd into more than twenty years ago , and which have boon faithfully ob served by the Unilcd States government. It is pertinent to remark that parly or political considerations are not involved in this issuo. Men of all parlies agree that the time hat ) como to compel our northern neighbors lo respect Iho treaty rights of American citizens or take the consequences. T OF THE The jobbers of this city ponotralo as far north as the province of Manitoba and sell their goods lo its people who , although 1,000 miles away , nro gen erally regarded hero as not very dis tant neighbors. In the eastern part of the province of Ontario , where the woallh and business enterprise of Canada are centered , there is u strong fooling of hostility to the United States , which is based upon no bolter ground than the fact Unit American manufacturers and traders , particularly Ihoso of the western states , nro able lo compete with the manufacturers and merchants of eastern Canada for the trade of this great region. To this feeling of jealousy IB largely duo the present attitude of Canada concerning reciprocity with Iho United Stales. The capitalists of eastern Canada wish to maintain their hold upon the business of the central and western portions of the Dominion. The money and the political power .of Canndaaro centered in the east and nothing but the eelllshness nnd greed of the eastern Canadian capitalists stands in the way of Iho establishment of reciprocal trade relations which would be advantageous both to the people ple of Canada and Ihoso of Iho United Stales. A movement Is now on foot in Mani toba in favor of reciprocal arrange * ments which will enable the people of that , province to prolll by Iho proximity of American markets and sources of sup- p y to the southward. A convention is HOOII to bo held in which there will bo representatives from Manitoba nnd from st'tU'B on this side or the Sl.io , and the object U to discus * reciprocity and lo endeavor to bring about relations which will ba mutually advantageous to the citizens of both cMu-Hlrles. The area of MijnUoba is about 120,000 square miles. 1'j , Ig remarkably produc tive of cereals tm'a jns also great mtti- I oral wealth. Ilsditootopmont , even under unfavorable cond' UJns , has boon wonder ful. In 1881 there w0ro only 02,000 people ple in the entire province ; now there are 170,000 ; in 1881 ttfpro' ' wore only 128 pub lic schools ; now there nro nearly 800. In Iho same porl&d the Increase in grain production has l > eqn from 1,000,000 bushels to 4,1,000,000 bushels. The growth of Iho fioth'irillllng catnclly and Iho railroad fmillUoB has boon at about the same ratio. The people of Manitoba naturally dcslro closer rolallons with their neighbors on Ihls sldo of the Hue. Reciprocal arrntigotnoiils that would bo mutually advantageous would bo wel comed by them. To the slates near the border , and even to Nebraska , closer trade relations would -equally wel come. It is reasonable to expect that the time will como when Iho enmity and jealousy of eastern Canada will no longer bo able to defer the day of reci procity. A common interest will at length prevail nnd both sides will bo gainers. IT is rather signlfionnl , in view of Iho fierce allnck of Iho people's parly upon national.bamcs , that tholr number In this country is really decreasing in pro portion to the number of private banks. In many cases natipnal banks are being changed inlo private banks and the reason for this is very clear. There is not the opportunity of making money in the national banks which there is in the private banks on account of the rigidity of.lho law under which nalional banks nro conducted. There is no ohantfo for the spooulalion and dishonesty so often indulged in by private banks. But against the latter Iho populists have nothing1 to say. This shows their ignor ance , or duplicity , on this subject. WEALTH can purchase no immunity from the perils of the sea , nor from any other dangers that besot mankind. W. K. Vanderbilt and his millionaire guests , who very narrowly escaped b5- ing sent to the bottom with the floating palace that was run down by n steamer in the fog , fared no bsttor than Ihoy would if they had been a crow of fisher men.

" Charles Woostor , the alllanoa editor of the Silver Crook Times , declares In favor of the nomination of Lorenzo Cronnso nnd then relates this anecdote of him : "Whon the editor of the Tltnos first sU-ucU Nebraska in the spring of 1S7J It was his fortune to drop Into the distrlr.t court room in Sehuyler wbllo court was In session. An attorney was arguing a motion to reopen n certain cnso , presenting some very flncspun legal technicalities.
