It has heretofore been the supposition that the yield of "wheat for 1882 would very nearly come up to that of 1878, but it was hardly supposed that it would exceed it, yet such is the fact. In 1878 the area of winter wheat was 1,297,555 acres, yielding 25,518,955 bushels; the area of winter wheat for 1882 is 1,462,730 and the product bushels.

In 1878 there were 433,257 acres of spring wheat, while this year there are but acres of this cereal. The entire wheat product for 1878 was bushels, averaging about eighteen bushels to the acre, while this year it is 32,013,711 bushels, averaging something over twenty bushels per acre. The entire crop is nearly harvested, all being cut in the southern counties and nearly finished in the northern. Port Soott Railroad Crops. A short time ago Mr.

J. E. Lock-wood, general passenger and ticket agent for the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Gulf railway, sent out circulars to agents of the company at the most central point in every county along the line, as follows Kansas City, June 28, 1882.

Thie first is the Republican, the second Democratic, and the last the Prohibition. Kansas Democratic Convention Called. Topeka, July 10. The executive committee, H. Miles Moore and Edward Carroll of Leavenworth, H.

E. Norton of Em poria, John Martin of Topeka, and R. M. Morris of Atchison, of the democratic state central committee, held a meeting here this afternoon and decided to call the democratic state convention at Empor ia for August 30. The basis of representation is one delegate to every 200 votes for Edward Ross for governor in 1880, and one for every fraction thereof, so that every organized county in the state is represented by at least one delegate.

John Martin said to-night that the democratic party will put a temperance plank in its platform, calculated to do away with the humbug of a prohibition, which he characterizes as a barrier iu the way of and trswit -temperance Persuant to call a number of the old soldiers of the late war met at Ocheltree July 9th to consider the feasibility of organizing a post of the Grand Army of the Republic.

N. Davis and Horace Parks, to ascertain the number and names of all who would wish to with us and report at our next meeting. On motion it was agreed that our next meeting be" held in Spring Hill on Saturday evening July 22d, at 7 o'clock. All honorable discharged soldiers, sailors or marines are invited to meet with us. On motion the Secretary was requested to present a copy ou the minutes of this meeting to the Spring Hill Review for publication.

W. II. Caylor, Chairman. Alex Davis, Secretary. An Unhappy Chinaman.

Aeto York One of the Chinese students recalled from this country by the Chinese government, who at the time of bis recall was a sophomore in Yale college, has "written to a Connecticut friend an account of his present life in China. He denies the rumors of barbarous treatment, and then says: "The numerous stories may be reduced to this after the fanciful parts have evapc rated that we were shut up for week 8 in a rotton place at Shanghai, for fear of our running back to America; that for the same reason they would not let us go home without bailsmen that the majority were sent, up to Tientsin, and the rest sent to Foo Chow or retained at Shanghai that those at Shanghai, after a farcical examination, were assigned indiscriminately to the different schools and factories, and that in these schools we have been strictly kept, and advantage has been taken of our ignorance of Chinese laws and customs. We have thus passed a most dry and dreary winter on this most level of plains. We have not ceased to be homesick and to pine for America. We have been disappointed a number of times in our hopes of seeing our parents.

It is doubtful whether we cau go this spring. I feel that I am only wasting my life on this desert. I learn nothiug here but what I have learned before I see nothing here worth seeing I experience nothing here but homesickness and solitude. SPRING HILL MILLS. Notice to Farmers and Others.

Stevens this week moved Into his new quarters In the Odd Fellows building. He is now well fixed, with good stock andplenty of suitable room. The Paola Republican ot two weeks ago refers to Mr. Stevens'1 qualifications us fol lows Charley Stevens, of Sprinsr Hill, was In town Tuesday attending to business con- neetea witu tue Masonic iausk. Mr.

Stevens is in the drug business at Spring Hill and from what we learn 4s booming right along. The worthy always reap a rich reward and as Charley is a first class prescription druggist of many years standing and a thorough gentleman, must and will thrive no matter in what community he may engage in business. Being an old Paola boy we are pleased to note the success of Mr. Stevens. The Sprinff Hill ians will do well in making Charlev Stevens' drug house a permanent fixture, for a more reliable druggist can not be found in any locality or a better citizen.

Even though "aid-summer suns hine but dim," there is a wonderful amount of heat about it. The students of the national deaf mute college, at Washington, have subscribed $1,200 for the purpose of placing a marble bust of Garfield in the college chapel. The work will be entrusted to Mr. French, the eminent artist aud sculptor of the Minute at Concord, N. II.

Many suppose, and some historians have said, that all the. names were signed to the Declaration on 4th of July, 1776. Not so. It was signed on that day only by the president, John Hancock, aud his signature it was sent forth to the world. On the second day of August it was signed by all but one of the fifty-six signers whose names are appended' to it.

The other attached his name in November. The pen "used by the signers is prefer In Historical Society at Boston. Spirit. Some one has intimated that there may be another convention held in this, the Second, District to bring out another Republican candidate for congress. Such talk is sheer nonsense.

There isn't a sensible Republican in the district who could be induced to take the lield against Haskell this fall. The Democrats will meet at Emporia August 30 to nominate their candidates for state offices and four congressmen at large. If there are any aspirants, dark horses or otherwise, we have, as yet, failed to locate them. It is a noticeable fact that some of the Democratic papers not only "wink at" but indirectly encourage the candidacy of Sf. John.

What do they mean by this If they were to answer, it would be that they consider him the easiest man to beat. Now this is the var-iest bosh. Just as sure as St. receives the nomination he will be the next governor of Kansas. If he is defeated it must be done at the nominating convention for whoever the candidate is, the entire Republican party will fall into line and elect him.

All know that the Democrats have very little choice in this state, but they could, if proper means were adopted, so shape the acts of the Reanblicans as to secure the nomination of some man who is more to their liking than is the present governor. It is no argument to say that farmers are unfitted by their calling for the duties of legislation. On the contrary, there is no class of citizens so fitted for it because no class is so free from the prejudice and taint of purely political maneueiiug. Farther, no class are so generally well-intormed as to the past and present of parties and They may not read so largely, but they digest more thoroughly; and for a thorough exposition of what has been, and what may be done in a republic of equal citizens, commend us to the "wisdom and acumen of the steady-going, thoughtful farmer, who thinks as he plows, and finds the igolution of his problems in the jgrand ever-present results of nature. National Farmer: The principal objection to St.

John is not because of his temperance proclivities, as many suppose. It is the third term difficulty. The temperance thing helps him. Many influential men are strongly opposed to any man holding the office of Governor for three successive terms. That is the principal influence the Governor has to overcome.

Paola Republican. That is it, exactly. Many of the very best friends of" prohibition are in favor of another man for the third term reason alone. Yet we believe there several men who can do more for the cause of temperance in Kansas than St. John can, because there are many who now violate the" law for the sole purpose of spiting the gov- ernor.

Of course, such is sheer nonsense, but all the same fact. it is a Pigeon Shooting. To enliven these dull times our sportsmen got up a little shooting match lor three cash prizes ot $50, $35 and $20 each. The boys managed to get 104 pigeons and Tuesday morning was the time decided upon. At 7:30 a.

m. a large crowd assembled on the grounds eagt of Mr. Mitchells bouse to see the fun. The birds were shot at 23 3'ards riae, and eigfht contest- nuts participated witb ten birds each. The Fliooting was splendid and all the boys lone well.
