Newspaper Page Texti lire tmcat HUDAY SEPTEMBER 4, Ic-ttft f JtOJ'.i IX NIK SSWTM. The Malum re ..fanu.tcturrt Record publishes nearly titrr pages of special rorU coveting t bi whole 8ju',Ii, from Virginia to Tex, showing that the prospects for ciops and the outlook for busings iu tht section are remarkably gool. Not only ir tho acreage of the eottoc, corn and tobacco crops the largest on record, but the rv porta are almost unHuimou in stating that the yield of these crop, as well as of small erct!H, (etoepl wheat.) will greatly exceed the best, crops ever U fore pro duced. It is sis') shown th.it the crops have lieen made at lower co.-t than in any preceding year, and liena on crops for money advanced to farmers is roucS less than heretofore. OfnVi l reports from South Carolina how tha while that State will produce about four million bushels mora oom, and probably over three hundred thou and bales of cotton more thin lat year, the aggregate amount of the agri cultural liens given to obuin advances ui on growing crops is thtee million dollars less than iu 18$2,uotwithstand ing the fot that tha intervening years, 1883 and 1884, were unfavorable rop years. In Gvirgia.tbe Agiicuttural Depart ment ,s;imtp3 the corn crop at fotty miiliMx bush!, against thiity-one million bushels ..st year, and twent fjnr million six hundred th hh im I bushels i a 1883. llirdinjf com, reports from the wb ! S nib are of the mast flittering cha-ac r j aoma stating that the yield will be iu- rt. fr yean, n'rerj the beat fin tweuty year?, and winy the best ever ttpown. It is thought by the U. S. C itntnisaioner of Agriculture that the Is created acreage in corn over last year and the splendid yield which is now assured will give thn S utb not le&s than Gfty million boshed of corn more than last year. The c itlou crop, it ia believed, is safe for much the largest yiel 1 ever made, and for at leait one million to one million five hundred thousand bales more than last yer. Of tobacco.fr nita and vegetablea the erope are the largest ever made in the 8uth; while tic? promises a sp'eudid yield, and sugar a far more satisfactory aud profitable crop than in 1884. Stiinu'ated by the unprecedented crape, business is already showing de cided improvement, and the prospects in the south for fU and winter tiade are rejortd as unusually good. In the organization of railroad and manufac turing enterprises, mere is great activ ity, and the outlook for industrial in terests is particulate promising. Tlir. OHIO rLiTFUBM The OMio Democrats have adopted a sensible, practical plilfinr.. It stirls wUh a proposition which will meet general approval and which is string in its simple truthfulness. Tho country U congratulated dm the election of Mr. Cleveland because his Administration has "already dispell, ed the illusion that Democratic suc cess is inconsistent with the business Interests of the country at perilous to the rights of the freedraen." If nothing else had been accom plished by the election of a Demo cratic President, the simple fact that it has demonstrated that the Govern ment can be intrusted with safety and honor lo the party which has for twenty-flve jrearl been denounced as unfaithful to the constitution, defiant of the lwi and incapable of an hon est and intelligent administration of public afftirs, would be amply suffi cient recompense for more blunders than h;ivo been committed since Pres ident I velnnd's inauguration. The pretense lhat a pany embracing half the people of tho United Stiles U dis honeet and incapable can ajn longer impose on the raot credulous or pre judiced citizen. It has liemi shown that toe Democracy can not only gov ern hul can govern honorably, honest ly and beneficially to all the Interests of the coun!ry,and thin gives strength and perraaoency to our institution It has been shown that the Southern people are as true to the Constitution and as jealous of ihe honor and integ rity of the Union f it U possible for auy Northerners to be, aud this kills forever ihe sectional issue which Ite pobliean p'llltlcians are ('udeavoring to revlv',even over the grave of Gen. Grant. Tin ()'ii pluform is sound on the questions of the public lands, of sump tuary legislation, of prohibition, of theer.er nchments of monopolies and ofecnn iny and decreased taxation. Its lo't pi inks aro best illustrated by the k oi State G ovorument it has given the people, and the party starts, it U believed at home, with a go d chance) of success. HtttDLY NKCVSiitty.

Exploration has shown Its eJmooi limitless p000it4Utieff and civilizition is looking (o it with lively hopes a a field for the extension of its Institu tions. It is not pirtlcularly gratifying in one senso thai Mohammedanism Is getting the start of Christianity, but there must be considerable tear ing down before the upbuilding be gins, aud in the work of preliminary dtiHtructiori tho followers of the prophet have few supurlors. Chrlst itnity, not simply as a religion, but as a civilizing focOjis gaitiiQg ground even iu the strong holds of Moham medanism itself, and we need not fear that it will be unable to hold its own in an equal contest in new fields. The history of civilization shows the same essential principle throughout, aud that is the survival of the fittest. The forces that make history act much more rapidly now than in for mer centuries, and where the present benighted army of prosetyte-i and plunderers blazes a way, an army with more enlightened and benefi cent methods and m re stable pur poses will follow, not always with goua or spears iu their hands, but with instrument.- that will have a mote pjtent and lasting influence. l)KftKKTIOY The course uraued by tho reublicau organs of sectional hate and atrife is bearirg legitimate ft nit in the deaertioo from that party of many of its most con scientious members.

The present leaders are asking for its supremacy on the assumption that over half our citi '.ens are enemies to the Government. All psfriots should re buke this falsehood. Tho party has drifted into the hands of men of whom Gen. Grant said : 'They did not get enough fighting during the war, and are doing their fighting now.1 Men should not be deceived into believing that another rebellion is brewing, when tho air is voiced with a jubilee of peace and good will. Pot msny yea-a the platforms of the Republican party have rung out for economy and purity of public servic, aud yet when a man has been found who, tike President Cleveland, makes vital these very principles, they turn round and dtsnouuca him h an enemy of the Government.

M Ol VdBI ILMRs7aTBrL V . Rev. P. A. Mooes has made a very able presentation of tbe subject above ; and has come to the conelusion that, witb some exceptions manifestly neces sary, the mounds of tho American con tinent are the results of natural causes. Antiquarians have never mistaken natural hills for artificial mounds, and the mounds, taken severally, present too many objections to Mr. Mooes' con clusion. Hia arguments, good as they are, show but one fault. They show that he is not personally familiar with the mounds. Tbe argument that the absence, of auy trace of place from whioh the earth of tbe mound, oould have been taken, shows tbe mound to be a natural one, is answered in Poland, where a hugs mound is mode of earth brought from every, battle Held in Po land. Again, take tbe same fact relative to the Pyramids of Egypt, Solomon's an cient temple, and the cromlechs of all ancient Galiic territory. No trench is found near Birs Nimrod, the supposed ruin of the tower of Babel, yet it rivals tbe mounds of America in magnitude. Time and space do not permit more now ; but Mr. Moses' theory will meet mighty objections. W. S. Walkeo, It is reported that Cleveland will oake a visit to Ohio some time ia this month. Ore town.

The danger to the public health from the indis criminate use of the many lime and alum baking powders of commerce has been 'so fully exposed that everybody desires to avoid their further use. The proprietors of some of the worst of these pow ders arc now going from house to house, trying by means of a trick, or so-called test, with heat and water, to show that their article is as good as the Royal Baking Powder, which everybody knows is absolutely pure and wholesome, the object, of course, being to supply their own goods in place of the favorite Royal, which housekeepers have for so many years relied upon to produce light, wholesome, and palatable food. The housekeeper will do well to be on her guard Against these baking powder tramps. Every intelligent person knows that any goods peddled from house to house in this manner, or that are given away in sam ples, or sought to be introduced by secretly traducing the character of other goods well known to be pure and reliable, have no merits of their own, and have failed to find purchasers through legitimate means. As a matter of fact, one of these tramps is trying to introduce a powder that has leen found by the Govern ment chemist to be 11.85 per cent lime, and the other peddles a powder that Is 20 per cent alum one a pow erful caustic, the other a corrosive poison No such tricks or jugglery can deceive any One. The crucial test that the Royal Baking Powder has undergone during the last quarter of a century the test of actual and successful work in the preparation of pure and wholesome food, under which it has never yet failed is entirely satisfactory to the practical housekeeper. She has always had "good luck " with it in making light, sweet, and delicious bread, biscuit and cake, and has placed it, to stay, at the head of her housekeeping favorites. The Royal Baking Pow der has the reputation everywhere of being the best and the only pure baking powder made, and the baking powder tramp who attempts to supplant its place in the confidence of the housekeeper will find this a bad year for his business.
