feels an honest pride in saying that it will

there has been but little new oats or wheat

A Minneapolis paper says the Hour mills
of Minneapolis continue to run about the
same, aa last as one shuts down another
starting op, keeping the production close
to the same point. For the lirst two days
ol the week twelve mills were running,
while another startc 1 Wednesday and still
auotlicr was announced to start Thiirsdiiy
or to-day (Friday.) The daily production
will average about 11,000 bbls, against 11.
500 bhls last wovk. Our estimate ol 11.000
bbls, however, may be considered low rati;
er than too high. But next week the pro
duction will no doubt average lighter, as
the mill which has been turning out the
moat flour by 2.'J00 bbls per day of any in
uie city, is expectea 10 sum aown Satur
day, i.nd moreover, the mills will probably
be shot down Haturday, the 10th,
Instant for the millers' excursion, making
the week one day short. There has beeu
some Improvement in the Hour market,
aud more confidence is manifested iu the
future. On Monday tbe Millers' associa
tion advanced tho price of wheat two cents
all around, while on 'change Tuesday there
was a decline of one half 01 a oent.

has been completed for 14 miles, ami is be

it was found necessary to tunnel nearly
1.0U) feet. Tbe canal Is to be 311 miles long,
20 feet broad, and 4 feet deep. The Larimer
county canal covers L'1,000 acres, and has
already cost $70,000, with seven miles still
to construct. Iu Southern Colorado works

275 000 acres supplied,from tbe largo canals,
while in dozens of mountain valleys lesser
ditches abound, of which no account if
taken in tho estimate.
Tbe Boston Commercial and Shipping
List says: It has been until recently a sup
posed fact in connection with American
manufactures that the second In importance
as to the value of products is the griat mill,
while it is actually first In tho value of ma
terial used. The iron and steel makers
produce annually $5M,643,100 of manu
factured products, and use $.'lll),5!i4,Oi)0 of
raw material, wnile me grist mills produce
$50ft.lN.r).0U0, and uso $111,515,0110 ol raw
material that is, grain. There is, of course
a great dillerenco in the number of hands
employed and amount of wages paid. The
trim and steel men employ ,'iuti,.'!M hands,
ami pay $l'.,!.787,(K)Oa yenr In wagefl, while
the millers employ Ss, 100 hands, and pay
$17,422,1111 a year in wages. The capital
inve.ii il in mills is $17H,000,000, against
$lu,li,'IU.isiiii iron and steelworks. Tho
valun nf the milling raw material, suh

peal from the doo'slon of the iiinnnnnKaU
and that they alone will reap the benefit of
the removal of the tax. This conclusion Is
premature. It Is not at all surprising lhat
tho monopolists keep up tho prices, and it
is to be expected that they will do so as
long as possible. It is tint at all common
for men to let a good thing go so long as
they can keep it. The question Is, can the
match men keep their good thing? Con.
press did its best to enable them to keep it
by leaving tho old duty of 35 per cent, on
Imported matches unchanged, when it
ougut to nave abolished the duty along
with the stamp (ax. Congress helped create
the monopoly by authorizing the sale oi
stamps at a much lower price at wholesale
than at retail, as well as by Ihe duty on
foreign matches. Thus aided, the stronger
manufacturing concerns were able to absorb
the entire business by crushing out or buy
ing up the smaller try. Now that they
have the trade all in their own hands and
the duty atlll in their lavor, their posltlou
is, for the time being, a strong one. Coin
petition cannot be expected to arise and do
its work instantly. At first we may expect
mat men wno go into the business on a
small scale, or contemplate doing so, will
he bought out, and that tho monopoly will
thus be maintained for some time. Hut
tuis business or buying out will becme too
large to be profitable at no very distant
day, and then competition will come into
play. The match-making business la not
like the petroleum bnilnoss or some other
lines. Without government aid monopoly
cannot be maintained a great while. Ma
terials are abundant, and it requires no
great amount 01 capital aim no e.uraoroiu
ary skill to run the business successfully
We may depend upon it that oomnetition
will come. Meantime, gentlemen of tbe
1 ne nouse ot representatives who content,
plate taking an active part In tariff attta

enter In thoir memorandum books a minute

Five hundred head ol cattle were driven

private slaughtering is forbidden within a

During me lust week in May live steam

meat on board, arrived at Liverpool from
the United Htates and Canada, bringing a
total ot 1,707 cattle, 1.7H2 sheep, 4,120 quar
ters of beef, aud 4.'j0 carcasses of iiiun.ui,
which was a decrease in cattle and fresh
meat, but an increase in sheep on the pre- j
vious week's supply.
it. is reported from -New York that a
stock company with a capital ot over il.-

erect retail butcher shops in all parts 01
New York and llrooklvu for the tiunne

much hostility has been manilested by the
local butchers.
Hoiith America is the land nf chean beef

creased so rapidly the past tew years that

Within the Inst six months." savs an
exchange, "the use of steel nails tins in
creased lurgely. They erne into tho mar
ket about a year ago and lound an imme
diate sale. One by one the leading nail
companies of Massachusetts took up this
line nf manufacture until all now produce
steel nails regularly. No change in machin
ery was required. The knives for cutting
the steel plates dull much quicker than on
iron work, but otherwise the cost of manu
facture Ib not increased beyond the lirst
cost of the steel blontu as compared with
pig or scrap iron wnicn is used in making
iron nails. At lirst the extra cost of steel
nails was I.e. per pound, or $1.60 per keg,
but It has now been reduced to $1 extra.
The great advantage of the steel nails is that
they can be driven into hard wood as easi
ly us au Iron nail will go into a pine board.
We have seen steel nails driven into a
whiieoakkoot witho.it Lending. No'hrn
else is now used in laying hardwood II iou.
they require no boring, but are tirivw,
teuilily. For all kinds of hard finish tin y
are especially adapted, and as so much
hard finish Is now employed, their u-e
must be on the increase. Thev are also
used largely by car-builders, aud box-muk-ers
are increasing their demand for llu ni.
Knx-makers have been using the hetier
grades of iron nails, as they desire those thai
can be drawn and redriveu. The steel nml
meets this reaairement better teuu anv
other."

Alter a gwl ileal of discussion the Chicago
system was carried by a narrow majority
vote. Allei thri mouths' trial, however,
it was contended by some of the brokers
that, instead of bringing grist to the mill,
the Cbiciiro methods bad actualiv proved a
loss to the trade. Another meeting was
therefore called, at wbirh active attempts
were made to reverse the order ol things
and give to the members the New York
niodu. Those who moved in the matter
were defeated, however, on the ground that
the new system had not had a fair trial.
Nothing since then bas been accomplished.
and the members now believe that the time
has arrived when the question ought to be
