A SMALL YIELD-
; the
rill
The present indications are that
world's wheat croofor this season wi
fee smaller than it has been for the last
several years. The East India yield is
reported to be very small, so' small in
fact as to form no part in the general
estimate. Besides this there are two
other great exporting countries which
-will hardly raise enough cereals this
year to supply their domestic demand.
These are Russia and Anstio-Hnngary.
For the last two seasons Russia has
iad a large surplus of wheat and has
borne, the market down with the
weight of its export. Now her great
granaries like those of Odessa are emp
ty. Empty also are her fields of ripen
ing grain. Long drouths in the spring
followed by fearful storms in the early
summer have destroyed tho wheat and
oat prospects in Russia and the barley,
rye and wheat of Austro-Hungary,
Rouniani-i and eastern Germany. En
gland, France and Italy buy vast quan
tities of grain from these countries, and
th-3 failure of their supply is, therefore,
a serious matter for them, especially in
view of the failure of the India crops.
It is more than likely that American
farmers will reap the benefit from the
misfortunes of the Old World. The
American cereal yield for this season
fs, so far as reported, immense. Prices
for wheat have been so long low that
the farmers have about abandoned
hope that they will ever advance. The
present outlook, however, is surely
bright. " .
BLAINE'S CONDITION
In want of something startling for
an item of news, some paper started a
report that Blaine was going to resign
from his position in Harrison's cabinet
on account of his health. Hewever,
he has denied it to be the truth. It
is the hope of all , the people of this
country that his health will outlast Lis
duties as secretary of state.
There are rocks ahead which he has
descried and past which he should be
the Dilot of the state. The fisheries
' question is one of these. The relation
of the k United States to the South
American states is another. The re
lative power of our nation upon the
Pacific ocean is a third. All of these
Issues need for them proper solution
Tho country wants at least four years
of republican rule under Harrison and
Blaine.
PENNOYER A GAIN
ds. Gazette:
The Oregonian gives Governor
Pennoyer credit for saying that
the railioad commissioners shall
have no more pay, also lie gets Lis
drinking water from the "Willam
ette river.
What effect his effort to prevent
the secretary of the state from pay
ing the commissioners accoMing
to law will have, I am unsEJfo
sav. but it is very probable that
.
his drinking from the Willamette
river is the cause of the extremely
ow water this season. Springs
ari4 wells are drying up all over
the country, the boats have not
been able to reach the last year's
wheat crop in the upper valley.
the bars along the river -are grin
ning, in the sun while the bottom
of our beautiful river can be seen
in many places but a few inches
beneath the water from shore to
shore. The whole river shows
some terrible drain, in fact, the
water seems to be sucked away
faster than it can run down from
the mountains. G.
RECOMMENDING APPROPRIATIONS.

The schooner Mischief Went out on a
deep-sea fishing tour on Monday last and
after staving a Jew hours 367 fish were
hauled in. A large whale was seen about
a quarter of a mile from the boat, spouting
water and blowing. The pot where the

From Chief Clerk J. C. Shofner, of Cap-
tian Young's office, United States engineers.
itvis learned that the statement in yester
day's dispatches, that Captain Young had
recommended an appropriation of 250,000
for this year 8 work on improving the en
trance to Coos bay, and $75,000 for Yaquina
bay, was peifectly correct.
Owincf to a change in the project for the
improvement of Yaquina bay, the cost will
not be nearly so much as at first estimated,
Instead of extending the south jetty away
out inta deep water, it wad deemed better
to bnild another on the north side nearly
parallel, leaving comparatively narrow
entrance. There is a reef of rocks a short
distance out, and it was feared that if the
jetties were extended out toward this a ba-
would be formed there which would ob
struct the entrance. -
At Coos bay a large expenditure will be
required to make a straight channel. As
regards' the depth of water on the bar,
Coos bay is now one of the best harbors on
the coast, having twenty-four feet. The
work of expending a; $75,000 appropriation
there has been commenced by contractor
P. O'NeiL When this is fiuished the
$250,000 will be expended in running the
mttv ont far enoucrti to eive ine current a
course which will sweep out a straight chan
nel, thus greatly improving the entrance.
