But the two enormous crops of corn in this country in 1895 and 1896 have caused such a radical increase in American exports of grain that, acccrding to the New York Produce Ex- change experts, the foreign situ- ation has entirely changed, so far as the consumption of waize from the United States is ccn- cerned. Since last summer the United States ha: been sending about 4,000 000 bushels each week to European ports. Some litile of this is used in making bread, but the chief demand for it is for cattle-feeding and distilling purposes.—Richmond Dispatch. —s year rosranscaprrmnnined India is one of the most densely populated countries of the world. lo British ludia the births per year are computed at 8,382,000, against 7,164,000 deaths, showing during years ot ordinary health- fullness an inccrease in the popu: lation of over one million.

The Southern Railway (owned by Rothchilds) declares a semi- annual dividend on $55,000,000 of watered stock and other rai: ‘roads are dving as well. Besides, the people pay the rent on the North Uarolina railroad for them and give them the use of the road free. All these things are done by hign passenger fares and freight rates. .

How is it with those who have to pay these high rates?—Progressiye Far- mer. a ehadeb etait eure wns nn Irresponsibility of United States Senators, In a paper contributed to the New York Herald of Sunday Representative Tucker, of Vir- ginia, presents some strong argu. ments for the election of United States Senators by direct vote of the people. , One.of Mr. Tucker’s strongest argumenis is that under the pres- ent method of election the United States Senator is responsible in small degree either to the people who do not elect him, or to the Legislature by which he 1s chos- en. Long before. the Senator’s term of six years ends the Legis lature which elected him has also expirad. While the Senavor’s moral obligation still. exists the political body that possessed the power to hoid him to a strict accountability 1s dead when he comes up for re-election, and a new legislative body has taken its place. Thus the Senate of the United States, while holding great political and legislative power, has little responsibility to the people. This is ove of the maiu reasous why the large majority of Upitea States Senators prefer the present mode of election. Another rea- son is thatthe leyislative caucus can be much more easily mauipu. lated than the ballot box.—Phila- delphia Record. Piaying With Words. Nearly everything is subject to anger.
