who are ot yet assured of the thde

they are reasonably certain of relIel

Garcia , it Is stated , has &evered all

and has gone to join Goznez. purruam
to orders from the latter , the mtentlou L
helm : to continue warlare anInst th
Slaulards , whether there shall be ai

Two weeks ago the outlook for corn
was gloomy and the prediction was
made that it would not be much more
than half a crop. Throughout a large
area of the cot-n belt the prolonged dry
slell had done more or less damage. But
tim recent rains , widcly exended , are
reported to have . quite generally restored -
stored the favorable conditions that prevailed -
vailed anterior to the dry weather and
while It is probable that the crop 'n-Ill
not be so large as had been hoped for
earlier in the season. It will undoubtedly
be nearly If not fully an average crop.
So far as the supply of moisture is eon-
cerned corn is safe wherever the I-ate
abundant raIns have fallen.
Meanwhile It is interesting to note
the prevalence of a belief In well Informed -
formed quarters that the demand for
corn for export is likely to steadily increase -
crease The larie shipments abroad of
thIs cereal within the past year seems
to warrant the opinion that at last it
has found a more extensive acceptance .
in Europe as an article of human rood
and it Is said that the prejudice uuinst
corn both In Great Britain and on tht
.
continent is rapidly passing away. Of
course circumstances in the last year -
have been peculiarly favorable to an Increased - -
creased foreign demand for corn and ii ;
may not be so large neat year If the
better yield of wheat abroad now promised -
is-ed Is realized. but in any event there
seems to b * ; good reason to believe thai :
we shall continue to have a good for- -
market for eorn if not a ralidl -
g rowlnc one.

General James B. Weaver of Iowa. whom
students of calamity remember as the populist -
list candidate for preaeai in 1192 , has been
nominated for repreaezitattre in congress
by a three-beaded convention in Oskatoosa.
We can't imagine 'n-hat Weaver has to wall
about now , but he has been a victim of th
wafling habit for years and nothing will
ever make him give It up. Some ernlcal
delegates in the convention voted for him
on the ground that as a republican would
be elected anyway it was the part a ! wisdom L
to put him up , knock him violently down
and so have- done witk him- They don't
know him. He is not eaxily discouraged and
will nominate himati ! if nobody else will
take the trouble to nominate him.

New York Sun : The three departments of
the old Firyanite party in Nebraska have
held their state conventions simultaneously
at Liaccia. The Bryariite democrats. the
silver republicans and the populicts met as
separate organIzations. but with a common
purpose in view. namely , fusion and the
promotion of Bryanism as revised to date by
the colonel himself. There s-as harmony
and co-operation. except a. wrangle over
the apportionment of the state offices.
At one time there was a movement to recon-
ale differences by putting up Bryan himself
for governor. Th0 final agreement resulted
in the nomination of popullsts for governor ,
auditor. secretary of state , treasurer , cam-
missioner of public lands and buildings
and superintendent of public instruction ; a
silver repnbllcan for lieutenant governor .
and a democrat for attorney general. Al-
