The freight rate on wheat to
Chicago from Oklahoma City, is
thirty-five cents, and the rate to (ial-
veston is twenty-six cents, or twenty-
one cent* a bushel to Chicago and
fifteen and a half to Galveston.
Within the past six months the chan-
nel at Galveston has been considera-
bly deepened. ami facilities for hand-
ling wheat have been increased.
There are respectable and alile
men in the democratic party, but
the administration very frequently
passes them over and appoints some
man to fill a responsible otlice, who
is not fit to fill the place of dog
catcher The case of Hoffman for
assistant district attorney is *n in-
stance. But few people knew that
he had been admitted to the bar, and
it is assertf d that he never had a
esse in court. This territory seems
doomed to be misgoverned just as
long as the democratic party remains
in power.
The city council can not too soon
order n more thorough system of
records kept by the police Jodg-j.
The same record should be kept in
the police court that is kept in the
office of a justice of the peace. As
the records are now kept there is no
history of the case kept, except the
bare fact that the party was arraign-
ed, and that a certain judgement was
imposed. Better records will go far
toward preventing a repetition of the
present trouble
The Press-Gazette should be anx-
ious for an investigation of Judge
Beaty's records. It is unfair and
unmanly to denounce councilmen for
endeavoring to protect the city.
The Press-Gazette will be forced be-
fore the investigation is over, to ac-
knowledge that the city has been
robbed, or that Judge Beaty is noi
competent to keep a set of records.
The business in the police court has
been very light since Judge Beaty
has occupied the office. About four
cases a day has been the average,
which gives ample time to make up
the records as they should be. The
police judge gets $ 1,000 a year aad
what he can make out of the justice
of the peace business, which is about
$211(1 more, making a salary of $1,-
200 a year. It is expected that the
police judge shall remain in his oflice
during office hours to attend to pub-
lic business. If he .his done this,
there is no excuse but incompetence,
or intentional fraud, for the shortage
that appears upon an examination of
the records.

Tiiirk is now a prospect tlmt
wheat will steadily advance iu price
nntil it reaches a reapeetable figure.
The winter wheat in the Mississippi
valley, cxccpt in Ok ahouia, is prac-
tically a failure. Northern Texas,
Kaisas, southern and eastern Ne-
braska and Missouri all report a low
average and a poor gratle. It is too
early yet to estimate the spring wheat
yield, but it will not be better than
'ast year. Wheat is now 5-1 cents in
Kansas City and 02 cents in Chicago
for N'o. 2 hard, and the price is still
moving upward.
Iu addition to the foreign market,
our local market is better than last
year. There are now milling facili-
ties in this county to grind every
bushel of wheat produced in the
county. The Texas and territorial
flour markets will he as gopd as ever
and will take at fair tlgureB every
barrel of flour that can be sent from
here. Tf the railroads will give our
millers a rate corresponding to th •
rate given Kansas City, Oklahoma
mills can control the market to the
south of us st good figures.

Kmpokia. Kan., June 12.—The pro-
hibitionists betfun to gather here this
morning- for the state convention at 'J
o'clock this afternoon. TJhe attend-
ance was small and very little canvass-
ing was done. The delegates seem to
have no idea who the nominee for gov-
ernor will Im\ although St. John's name
is most frequently mentioned. The ex-
governor. however, said that he would
not accept a nomination for any office.
When shown the report that he was
about to flop to the populists, St. John
denounced it a* false in every particu-
lar. He condemned the present state
administration and said that he could
have nothing to do with a party headed
by Lewelling.
St. John has been agreed upon as
temporary chairman, with Mrs. Annie
L. Austin, of Pleasanton, as secretary.
John P. St. John wus chosen tempo-
rary chairman. In his speech he de-
nounced the republicans, democrats and
populists, especially the former and
their cowardly action on prohibition ;
and equal suffrage questions at the state
convention recently. lie dwelt upon
the conditions of the country as caused j
by republican legislation and strongly j
scored the tariff and financial laws.
He outlined the platform of the pro- '
hibition party as follows: Suppression i
of liquor traffic; government owner-
ship of railroads; free and unlim- |
ited coinage of gold and silver at 10 to i
1; issuance of money direct to the peo- '
pie by the government; opposition to
the issuance of government bonds; j
election of senators by popular vote.

The Prospects Hrlght.
Galveston, Tex.. June i3.—The pre- .
dieted blessings of the jetties here are
already being realized in part and
there is every reason to believe that
when the work shall have been com-
pleted, next September, the largest
ocean vessels will be able to enter the
harbor.
During May 6 inches of sand on the
bar at the mouth of the harbor have
been washed^ away. The bar is of-
ficially reported by Maj. Miller,wW> is in
charge of the government woc^F, to be
full of holes, which are steadily increas-
ing in area. This is the result of the
confining of the tide within narrow
limits. The north jetty is practically j
completed for 12,000/eet, and the work I
on the south arm is being pushed rap-'
idly.
This cannot but be of deep interest
in Kansas and Missouri, and the whole !
west, as it will assure a near ocean :
harbor such as has long been desired, j
The American Railway t'nlon.
Chicago. June 13.—Four hundred and
fifty delegates were in their seats when
the convention of the American Rail- i
way union was called to order here •
to-day by President Eugene V. Debs.
Vice President Howard opened
the proceedings with a brief ad- i
dress reviewing the success of
the organization from the start.
President Debs' speech was enthusi-
astically received by the delegates. He
attacked Carnegie. Frick and (ieorge
M. Pullman, charging them with hy-
pocrisy and pharisaical fraud. Their
business, he declared, was to rob and
degrade workingmen and women.
Complfte Rent Enjoined.
Washington, June 13.—President
Cleveland's ailment has not yielded to
treatment as rapidly as was expected.
Today Dr. O'Reilly recommended that
he keep as quiet as possible and avoid
all physical exertion. This precaution
was t'.ll the more evident because of
the warm weather. Consequently th2
president kept to his room and did not
undertake to receive any visitors or
disturb himselT until the hour set for
the cabinet meeting, when he appeared
in his oftloa.
