Editor Public Ledger: It lias been some time since I looked at a copy of the Ledger, but received to day the copies of June 2 and 9 which were very much appreciated, and you can only imagine how good, it makes a fello.v feel to get his old home paper, especially when he is way iip in the Northwest. When I first landed here I felt a little "ju bus" to thiuk I was in Yankeedom and North of the Mason and Dixon line, but after I had been her6 for a while, I found it just as agreeable and pleasant as if I hadfbeen in my own country. Anothgr thing I re member last fall;jlwas in Oxford the day after the election and was up in Democratic headquarters when the telegrams from Illinois were read out by A. W. Graham, announcing that the Democrats had carried that State, which makes me feel a little more at home, especially since I have become acquainted with the country, towns and cities. I am liv ing within a mile and a half of our Vice-President and thati makes me feel good too. He lives in Bloom ington. I have seen him once since I have been here. My brother and I was out driving last Sunday even ing and passed his residence, which locked just like a Democrat's home. This is a fine State and very rich land, and all the corn, wheat and oats anyone could ask for is raised here. Corn is no object is selling for from 25 to 30 cents per bushel; more fine horses than some of the Granville boys ever sa.or ever will see, and beef there is no use talk ing. Some times I see a train a mile long loaded with cows going to Chi cago to be butchered and dressed for market, so those who go to the World's Fair may expect plenty of beef, for I have seen it going on to the place.

The temperature was slightly below the normal; sunshine deficient; rain-fall gen erally above the normal, with great ex cesses in some localities. A severe storm moving up the coast on the lGth produced very heavy rains and high winds in the counties along the coast. Hail occurred on the 12th, 13th and 14th, the damage generally being slight, but on the 13th greatly injured all crops on a few farms in the west. The frequent rains in the central and western portion of the State greatly interfered with harvesting of wheat and caused some slight loss. Re ports on tobacco very encouraging; plants growing off nicely. Corn generally very good. Only a few discouraging reports received. As compared with last year all crops seem to be in good condition.

If the hair is falling out and turning gray, the elands of the skin neeil st.imn- I lating and color-food, and the best rem 1 edv and stimulant is Hall's Hair Tf OUR FOREIGN POLICY. The Democratic Idea of Dealing: with Other Nations. The f o reign policy to which the democratic party is committed is of peaceful trade with all countries and in trigues against none. Only through such a policy can we long escape a for eign war that will saddle our workers with another grand army of military pensioners, so that instead of support ing a single million pretorians we will have several millions of them, insisting on their right to be supported at public expense because of their patriotism. The foreign policy of the last four years has been dangerous to the wel fare of our own people and alarming to our neighbors. Things have come to a pretty pass with us when it re quires a change of administration to make our neighbors feel, as Chili now frtels, that they are safe from imminent danger of being oppressed by our in trigues in their affairs, if not by an actual army of invasion, sent to sub jugate them and acquire control of their uano beds, their sugar trade, or whatever any syndicate of rapacious American plutocrats may chance to covet. We have all the territory we need and a great deal more than we are yet able to develop. We have not yet learned to govern ourselves justly, and we would be foolish indeed to subju gate others for the sake of governing them the better to give the same class of plutocrats who are robbing us op portunity to rob them under our aus pices and with our consent. The foreign .policy we want is not one of robbery, subjugation and an nexaticn, but of peaceful extension ol our trade. We want to put the Ameri can flag back into every port of the world and, wherever there is an English or a German mercantile agent, we want an American "drummer there to compete with him. President Montt, of Chili, feels that his country is safe from attack now that the democrats are back in power in the United States, and the party must so shape its foreign policy that no weak people will dread subjugation from the United S.tates. We must keep on good terms with our weaker neigh bors and restore their confidence in our sense of justice and love of freedom. The country has been sufficiently dis graced by the policy of Pate gan ism. .Let us have no more of it, neither in Chili nor in any other country. St. Louis Republic. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. Eight years ago Mr. Cleveland was an experiment. This time he is n tried and accredited statesman. Mem phis Appeal-Avalanche. Secretary Smith has shown him self a reliable democrat by getting rid of Raum as soon as possible. Now for the rest of them. St. Louis Republic. Secretary Carlisle is not talking quite as much about the condition of the treasury as his predecessor did in his latter days. Nor is there need of much talk. The treasury's situation is improving. St. Louis Globe-Democrat (Rep.). The trifle of two million dollars lost by an improper ruling in the pen sion department is a small matter, ac cording to the ideas of the republican leaders. "This is a billion-dollar coun try," says Mr. Reed, of Maine. N. Y. VVorld. A distinguished democratic sena tor says that there is not going to be any trouble between President Cleve land and the senate. He remarked that reminded him of his own do mestic relations. 'There never was a happier family than ours. My wife does just as she wants to, and 1 do just as she wants to, also." Cincinnati En quirer. Secretary Carlisle has dispensed with the services of the head of one of the bureaus in the treasury depart ment who was a delegate to the repub lican national convention. If this rule obtains in all other departments of the government it is calculated that some thing like two hundred heads will come off. The Minneapolis convention was distinguished above rfll others of recent times for the prevalence of federal of fice holders there. Boston Herald. -Mr. Cleveland's renomination was the work of the people, and Mr. Cleveland knows it too well to be im posed on by those who claim that they helped do it, and that they, should, therefore, be reimbursed for the sacri fices they made as his friends. He does not feel himself in anybody's debt for his renomination and reelection, and those who undertake to foreclose mortgages on his gratitude are going to have a hard time doing it. St. Louis Republic. The removal of the statistician of the ; agricultural department will surprise no one who knows how thoroughly saturated with McKin leyism the work of that officer has been for several years.

A professor of McKin leyism is not wanted in the statis tician's office now, either by the people or by the new administration. N.. . Times. Wanteil.
