A complete list ot the casual­ties shows that six negioes and tour .whites have been killed nnd ten ne groes and twenty whites wounded since the trouble began, j/ The tragedy was one of the most remarkable In the history of the cltj- m d 20,000 persons, soldiers, poHcemen and citizens were gathered around the square in which Charles was iinnl- ly put to death. Tremendous excite­ ment reigned in New Orieans. as the Jjattle went' on between the police nnd 'citizens and the negro with his Win­ chester. ■ Sergeant Gabriel Porteous, one of the iKSt'known officers on the force, and Sergeant John F. Lally, who has a line record foi bravery, were informed by a negro that Charles was In hiding iu a house in Clio street, nc'ar Sai-atoga Street. Determined to tjikc him alive If possible, the officers summoued a number of patrolmen to their nssist- 'ance and W'ent to the house where Charles was supposed to be in conceal­ ment. i Before the officers were aware of their danger Charles, who was hidden tiehhid a screen on the second floor of the building, raised his Winchester and began a furious and accurate tire. Orally fell with a h-jUet in the right Islde of his abdomen. Porteous was Shot through the bead and dropi>ed dead across the body ot Lally. The other policeman and the negro fied. 1 In the meantime Father Fitzgerald, of St. John's Church, was summoned to admUiister extreme unction to the police officers, who were lying in the alley. The priest responded promirtly, ^ d he was annolnting tue body ot •Porteous with Alfred J. Bloomfield, a yonng boy standing by his side, when Charles again appeared at the window. ' The lad saw the negro at once and begged the desperado not to shoot iilm. Charles fired his Winchester again, and Bloomfleld fell dead. The priest unhurt left the scene after plncklly performing the last offices for the dead officer.In the meantime an immense throng had gathered, and schemes were set on foot to get Charles out ot the build­ ing. Charles, however, did not pro­ pose to be captured without selling his life dearly. Time after time he came to the window, and as citizens, one by one. entered the alley, he blazed away at them. At this time the extra police began to fire indiscriminately at the negro., 'Andy Van Kuren, keeper of the police’ jail, got a bullet in the body and fell dead. Just afterward H. H. Ball, an old man, was hit aud mortally .wounded. About the same time Frank Bertnccl received a shot in the left shoulder, and J. W. Boflt got a bullet in the right hand. ■ At the moment of apparent indeci­sion so le one went to a neighboring grocery, purchased a can ot oil and, pouring It over the rear steps of the bnildlng, applied a match, and soon the building was in flames. • So fiercely did the flre bum that it became evident that no human being could live In the bouse, and v’.cked men from the police, siiecial squads and members of the militia stationed themselves about the building in order to pick the desperado as he attempted to get o ut A yonng soldier, Adolph Anderson, was one of the first to see Charles as he ran down the steps leading to the second story. Charles ran across the yard and entered the second room. He fired several times at Anderson, who was armed vltb a Winchester rifle. Anderson shot the negro in the breast and he fell and died soon after­ ward. As soon as the negro fell num­ bers of persons, armed with Winches­ ters and revolvers, rushed in and flred Into the body.There were then loud howls that the body should be taken to a vacant square In (he vicinity and publicly burned. At this instant however, a big squad of police dashed np in a pa­ trol wagon. The police promptly pushed the crowd aside, picked up the body and threw it into the patrol wagon. The driver whipped up his {HHses and the wagon started off with 6000 people running after It and chim- .,.«ting for the cremation of the body of b ^esp erad o .

AUesbeny, I’enn.—W o r k Olvea B p Alter W em - inge H a d B een GiTen. Pittsburg. Penn. (Special.) — An ex­ tensive plot to release prisoners from the Western Penitentiary in Alle­ gheny was disclosed by the discovery of a tunnel more than 200 feet long, extending from a cellar in a house un­ der a forty-flve-foot street and for more than 150 feet under another street parallel with the penitentiary wall. It Is supposed that the conspirators were frightened away by a cave-in of tile tunnel. Anachlstlc documents found in the house lead to the supposition that the release of Alexander Berkman, the Anarchist who shot H. C. Frick, of the Carnegie Steel Company, wasj sought .The penitentiary fronts on the Ohio River. On the cast side is Sterling street, running north from the stream. Run­ ning east and west along the north wall of the prison and ending on Ster­ling street is Refuge street. Kerr street runs parallel with Sterling street but begins only at the north wall o^ the prison, at a point on Refuge street 250 feet from Sterling.About the end of April a man giving the name of Thomas Brown, of Chi­ cago, tried to buy a house from an Al­legheny citizen, John Brown, the house being at the comer of Kerr and Befuge streets. The parties could not agree on terms, so the stranger bought o house, KO. 28 Sterling street, from John C. Langfitt a penitentiary guard, forty feet across from and opposite to the gate of the penitentiary used for the exit and entrance of wagons. The purchaser paid ?2oO down, and agreed to make another payment on July 25. The next day neighbors saw two men and two women move into the house with a piano, a bed and two cots, a gasolene stove and a few chairs. Ond of the women, a tall, handsome, black- halrcd, middle-aged woman, was an excellent singer and piano player. Sho played and sang all day and late into the night.More than two months passed and no more furniture came into the house,’ this made the neighbors suspicious. Miss LetiJa McCarthy, a spinster, hav­ ing heard the whirring of some kind of machinery, told Policeman Jake Young, who told Warden Wright, of the iienltentlary. A tew nights before this, on July 5, a special delivery letter bad been brought to the house, an^ the next day the piano and voice wei-e heard no more and none of the Inmates of the house was seen. Warden W right strengthened the guard on the waU and In the yard and reissued the old Instructions that in case of a hole apiiearing In the ground water from one of the twenty flre plugs was to be turned In to drown out any persons who might be in a tunnel. Wednesday was the time set for the second payment on the| bouse. Thomas Brown did not appear and the following day W^arden Wright seftt for the Allegheny detectives, and Philip McDonough, and Leon Einstein went to the house, accompanied by L a n ^ t, who opened the door with a i extra key.In a pantry off the kitchen was a buggy wheel supplied with a crank fitted with a broad tire and a belt which oi>erated a fan. From the fan; a length of galvanized pipe was let through one floor into tbe cellar. In one corner of the cellar was a cup-' board, and there the detectives lifted up a trap door and discovered a tun­ nel. Michael Redmon, a policeman, and Ferguson, the chief engineer of the prison, entered the tunnel. It was t'lree feet high and two and a half; feet wide. On hands and knees they crawled forty feet under Sterling street and reached the piling which supports the five-foot stone wall of the prison. Here the passage took an offset and for 101 feet more than two men followed it. The detectives were- operating the fans upstah's, but still the foul air which had accumulated iu the nearly three weeks that work had been suspended in the tunnel drove the explorers out They could not turn around and they backed out In the tunnel the men found a dry: battery electric light. In two places they found electric push buttons and bells, which communicated with but­ tons and bells In the kitchen and in the. parlor alongside the piano. It was plain that tbe woman at the piano could exchange signals with the men In the tunnel and that the playing and singing WEE largely intended to drown the soimd of the fan. Most ot the digging had evidently been done with a “silent digger.” a crescent-shaped piece of stel with two handles, which could cut down the learning soil ex­ peditiously. The theory is expressed that the conspirators intended to blow down 200 feet of the walls with dynamite, while tbe prisoners were exercised in tbe supposition that in the excite­ment Berkman couW be sllppped Into the house. A new suit ot clothes that would et him was found in On» of the bedrooms. Cam ne A U In Good Condition.

The platform utterance ot the Demo­ cratic party regarding American ship­ ping is a clear Index of the Inherent Inability ot that party to construct It seems only to be able to oppose and denounce the constructive policies of its progressive political opponents. The foreign commerce ot the United States is regarded the world over as the most important of all.. To this country come the finest foreign ships. The greatest and most powerful steam- sbip lines vie with each other for our trade. The largest, the sw iftest the safest and tbe most luxnrions ships that are built are for the carrying of the trade in merchandise, passengers, specie and malls from and to the United States. But eight per cent of our foreign trade is carried in American ships. Foreign ships carry ninety-two pei) cent This carrying is worth fully $200,000,000 each year. All but eight per cent of it goes out ot the pockets ot American producers and consumers for paying foreigners for doing our for­ eign carrying. Not only does it go out of our people's pockets, but It goes onl of the country. It goes abroad and Is there used to pay for the building and running of foreign ships. It gives the employment to foreigners that the' carrying of our foreign commerce creates. People ask, Why is this? The an­ swer Is simple. Foreign ships are built more cheaply than American ships.' This, however. Is a disadvan-! tagc that could in time be overcome if the shipbuilding Industry were pnt on a basis of permanency. If a steady and large demand were created for our ships very soon the cost of their con^ struction would be reduced to the level of foreign prices. It is the unsteadl ness, the irregularity, and the uncer­ tainty of employment in ,\merican shipyards that keeps the cost of Amer­ ican ships from twenty to twenty-five per cent higher than the cost of for­ eign built ships. Better food and more of it is given on American than on for­ eign ship's. This also creates a disad­ vantage which tbe American ship can­ not eoslly overcome. Then again wages on shipboard are much higher under tbe American thau under foreign flags. In the cases of officers the wages on American ships arc on the average twice as high as tliey are on foreign ships. Worse than all Ihis, however,, for­ eign governments pay their merchant ships great subsidies and bounties. Gre.it Britain spends about $0,000,000 n year in this way; France spends over $7,000,000 a year. Germany, Italy, Spain, Russia. Austria and Ja­ pan all give large subsidies to their ships. In all the subsidies and boun­ ties paid by foreign governments to their ships amount to more than $26,- 000,000 cach year. Unaided American ships, it must be clear, cannot profitably compete with foreign ships under the conditions above described. That is why it is that foreign ships have driven Ameri­ can ships from off tbe seas. The Re­ publican party, recognizing the unequal conditions which confront American ships in the foreign trade. Is committed to a policy of subsidizing American ships In that trade. The amount of the subsidy proposed is barely enough to enable American ships to compete on terms of equality with foreign ships. This bill Democrats have singled out for denunciation in their national plat­ form. They “oppose the accumulation of a surplus to be squandered in such bare-faced frauds upon the taxpayers as the Shipping Subsidy bill, which under the false pretense of prospering American shipbuilding woidd put un­ earned millions Into the pockets ot fa­ vorite contributors to the Republican campaign fund.” The alternative of the Shipping Subsidy bill is to keep on paying nearly $200,000,000 a year to foreign shipowners whose govern­ ments, In paying them subsidies, en­ able them to prevent American ships from competing. Rather than have our Government pay a subsidy to American ships, the Democrats would prefer to have our people send nearly $200,000,000 out of the country each year to build and sustain foreign ships. In their platform the Democrats “es* peclally condemn the ill-concealed Re­ publican alliance with England.” When we remember that Democra­ cy's platform denunciation of the Ship­ ping Subsidy bill will nowhere be re­ ceived with such favor and gratitude as in Great Britain, whose command of the sea and esiieclally of American foreign carrying tbe Democrats would perpetuate, and which present British monopoly of the passage of that bill would do much to destroy, the insin­ cerity and the secret prorBritish lean­ ings of the Democrats are clearly dis­ cerned. Not a word have the Democrats to ntter in behalf ot a policy that would cause the building of the ships our for­ eign commerce employs out of A m ^r can material and with American labor, instead of, as now. their construction out of foreign materials by foreign la­ bor in other countries. No policy is sug­ gested by them—they merely denounce the Republican policy that would sub­ stitute American for British and other foreign ships In our foreign trade. Hav­ ing no plan ot their own to suggest tor building up our shipping in the foreign trade, expressing no regret at seeing nearly $200,000,000 annually paid by Americans to foreign ship owners (chiefly British) for carrying our com­ merce, the Democrats, on the sh y in g question at least proclaim tbennelves .the allies of England. ley’e Ad*l«M&stlon. The country is to be congratnlatea that we are to have no change at the head of the BepuWican ticket In the coming political contest A favorite saying of McKinley’s Is that “yoo always trust the people.” And this Isj their opportunity to show their a^re-l elation of his confidence in their j5dg-j ment by trusting the management olj theh: affairs for tour more years in hl^ hands. Mutual confidence means suej cess. And the success of the Bepubi Ilcan pairty means a continuation of onr material development and pros- ity. For a candidate this time the people w ant a mail who has been tried and not found wanting—a man equal to any emergency, one who Is broad and liberal enough In ideas to keep abreast of the rapid evolution o8 nations, while keeping to the pollcyj which contributes, most to the Inter-j ests of OUT own coantry. A study of the present admlnlstra- tlon during the past three years dej cides the question that President Mc-i Kinley fills the ideal as ChlM Execu­ tive. His personality stamps him as a true gentleman and a loyal patriot, the h ig h ^ type of an American—able,j conscientious and devoted to the work; which comes to him In the discharge of his public duty. His is a nature in which the elements are so happily blended th a t while his able and dlgi nified public course commands respect; his private life wins sincere affection.' Connected as he Is w ith the present; happy condition ot our country, as the result of an entire Bepublican adminis­ tration of Republican principles, there is a feeling of satisfacUon and contti dencfe In the future which will call for his re-nomination and re-election. —M.

It is sate to predict that the Demo­ crats on the stump during tbe present campaign will criticise the course ot the administration with reference to the Philippines, but will offer no posi­ tive line of conduct regarding the same. There are but two courses open: either to pacify, hold, govern, educate, u d develop; or to abandon, withdraw aud allow anarchy to run riot imtll, inj the interests of humanity, some other Power steps in and takes up the ta s t we are advised to perform. The first course is Bepublican, the other must be called Democratic.____________________, Ji-ifc A Dem oeraU e Taak. The Democracy has a big task before It to persuade the American voter that IG to 1 is worth more to the country than protection, sound money, pros­ perity, trade expansion, the honor of the flag and the inevitable growth of the great republic, saved by Repnbli- cans and made prosperous by Bepab- Ilcan administrations. -DowirwKh the trusts” Is one of the Sloeans of the Democratic party this and its agents will endeavor to e n tire the laboring man's vote be- m u m they say that trusts lower the of the workers. B ?t what is the truth? Not one single instance can be cited where a large In- dnstrial In s titu tio n , employing hun- of thousands of people, has at- S ^ te d to reduce their wages. Neither ran It be shown that a single one of the hundred national and international trade and labor onions of the country Is aghUng the large combinations. In­ stead of fighting them, they are getting closer together every day. The grow­ ing tendency between labor and cap- it a has been toward annual confer­ ences to determtae wage scales, hours o f w o r k and condltons of employment The tendency is to employ arbitration and conciliation in the settlement ot differences. This method has long Ijeen in vogue between the railways and their employes, with the steel- rall makers. Tvith the wire-nail makers, with tin plate manufacturers, with the Steel beam producers, with the Amal­ gamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, with the newspaper publishers, with the employing book and Job printers, and with the Inter­ national Typographical Union. The more tliat labor and capital concen­ trate their interests individually, so much the more are they endeavoring to c o n c e n tra te their Interests collect­ ively. Large and small latror unions instead ot fighting Industrial combina­ tion. find it to their Interest to join hand In hand w ith them. There is no better combination In the United States to-day than the American Federation of Labor. Speaking for the vost army of wage- eamers employed in the iron, steel and tin Industry, Theodore Schaffer, Pres­ ident of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin AVorkers, before the Federal Industrial Commlsslon,has declared that the effect of trusts has been beneficial to them. “As a general rule,” he said, he believed that the members of his organization “would prefer to deal w ith combinations and large corporations rather than with 'smaller'independent mills.” His expe­ rience was that they always received fair treatment in negotiating with these combmations, and he was certain “they did not prevent competition.” Demochttlc politicians “point with pride” to the fact that there have been more labor disturbances and strikes In the past year or so than in the tour years of Democratic admih- istration. W hy all these strikes, then? The average wage worker jiever thinks ot gohig on a strike on a falling m arket and certainly not on a falling market under Democratic rule. When business is stagnant and factories are silent M d the land is full of unem­ ployed lobor, the voice of the agitator Is lost Ih the general mm:mur of dis­ tress and there are no strikes, because there is little employment Every tabor organization In the country, be it large or small, for the past two years reports steady employ­ ment for its full membership,hicreased pay, shorter working hours and a gen­ eral improvement In all its conditions. At the eve of President McKinley's re- election the whole world is engaged in paying tribute to the wonderful pro­ ductivity of our farm s and factories, telling a marvelous tale of Americah progperlty, proving conclusively thS general distribution of the flood ol wealth being poured into this favored land. It is scarcely four years since labor In the United States w as crying out tor work at any price. Its pockets were empty and its children went hungry to bed. These events are significant because, by their unprecedented intensity, they have called public attention as never before to w hat Is known as “the labor movement” The problem ot the rela> tlons between employer and employed is not of easy or quick solution. The promises ot this country, inaugurated by the protective policy of the Be- publlcan party when it came into power in 1896, were for a restoration of prosperity.

An abundant supply of t^ater at all hours is essential for cows that are producing milk, yet on some farms cows are treated like horses—watered at certain hours—although the cow re­ quires more w ater than the horse. Milk is mostly water, and the cow cannot keep up her full flow unless she can drink whenever she desires to do so. . Vslae.Inereulnc tli«_________ The value ot a farm Is sometimes In­ creased twofold by giving it an at­ tractive appearance. Any person de­ siring to porcliase a farm will pay more for one that bas been well kept than for even a better one on which the owner Las given but little atten­ tion to neatness. Every traveler along a highway will give a second glance at a farm witlj a nicely mowed lawn and whitewashed trees, while paint on the buildings will give them tne appearance of being new. A home is also more enjoyable when the own­ er makes it attractive in appearance. T h e Clay-Colored WebTll. This insect causcs injury to peas, beans, turnips, liale, vines, raspijerries, apples, plums, elms, etc. It feeds upon the leaves and also the wood. The larvae hatch from eggs which arc de­ posited in the ground and live through the winter, and as the adults make their first appearance during the mouths of May and June now is the time to get the best of them. It is recommended that the weevils be larred from the plants which they infest and tie caught by means of tarred boards or other receptacles. Against the larvae the following spray was found effective: Carirolic acid and w ater in the proportion of one pint of crude carbolic acid to ten gallons of water. tightly from one to the other.

When the plow is hard to hold It is safe to say that it is hard work for the teams to draw i t This may be be­ cause of roots or stones, in which case the cause is obvious, but if not some­ thing else is wrong, and the cause should be found and the trouble reme­ died. Is the point of the plow dull or the cutter that is used in front of it in sward land? It would be cheaper to get a new plow than to wear out plowman and team with a plow in poor condition. But quite as often we have found, the trouble to arise from the line of draught not being right. It would seem that any farmer should know if his plow “run her nose into the ground," so that he found he had to bear his weight on the handles, or pulled ont so he had to lift on It to keep it In, or whether it took too wide a furrow or too narrow a one, and should know how to remedy It, yet we have known t farm hand to work all day with a plow 'when he was putting out more strength every hour than he would have used in a day’s work with the safoe plow after he had hitched tl^ team properly. And the team was ■ ^'tired as he was.—The Cultivator. r ' . BatterGalCare*. One of the acknowledged experts in this country on the subject of ripen­ ing cream is jProfessor H. W. Conn, ot Connecticut, who Is th« introducer ot the system of artificial butter cult- m-es and the discoverer of the famous bacteria which produces the June but­ ter flavor. In his new bulletin No. 21 he discusses various methods of compelling cream ripening by use of starters and butter cultures. The Danish method is to pasteurize the cream and then add a pure culture of the right kind ot bacteria. This produces a mild-flavored butter, which, however, is not so well liked in this country as that produced by natural starters. To make a natural starter take the milk from a perfectly healthy cow. The first few jets ot milk are rejected and the rest drawn Into a sterilized vessel, which is Immediately covered, heated to a proper tempera­ ture and the milk passed through a separator. The skim milk thus ob­ tained Is set aside in a covered ster­ ilized vessel to sour. When well siured It serves as a starter for the cream-opening process. In conclusion, the professor observes that the use of any kind of starter will not moke Bc»d butter out of poor cream. Ume and Soil lUero-Orcanfliiia. U m e in the soil favors the decomr position of organic m atter and the carbonic acid thus produced acts upon the soil in such a way as to render the natural plant food easy of. assimila­ tion. It also plays an Important part in changing the ammonia into nitric acid, or in- other words, ptacing at the disposal of the plants the nitro- gen which bas been stored up.- Clover, beans and all other legu­ minous plants which draw their ni* trogen chiefly from the air are .un- able to make satisfactory growth if the soil exceeds a certahi degree ot acid­ ity. It seems that the mlnnte organ­ ism's Which dwell In the nodules on the roots ot legumes cannot'thrive in an add atmosphere.. By the appUcatlon of lime, this acid is-nentralized and the legumes grow readily, producing great quantities of nitrogen, which if purchased In the form of fertilizer would cost about thirteen cents per pound. O t course, excessive nmoniits of lime might prove injorioiis to these plants, particularly if the soil is but slightly acid. This can be easily guarded against and the amount required by various soils be determined by a few trials. One drawback to the use of lime in potato growing sections is tta t it favors the development of the' po­ tato scab. On this account liming In a rotation which includes potatoes should be indulged In but moderatrfy. If at a ll The lime should be applied Immediately after the crop is removed.

The same sticks can be used year after year. A Cow’s Food and Her Hilk. I have known wild onions to spoil completely the milk of cows which had eaten of them; that turnips fed to cows have a similar effect; that even when stored on the feeding lloor in the stable they have had a bad effect on milk and butter and even cheese. Every dairy man or woman knows how the white clover improves the character of the milk in quality and flavor, while cottonseed meal does the same, but not favorably for all tastes. The same applies to the gluten meals, ■which effect both flavor and color of' the butte-, while pumpkins do the same. Indeed, the whole cloud of witnesses to these facts might com­ pletely demolish the suggestion that dairy experts assure us, that “odors or flavors do not come through the cow.” If they do not, what then causes the great variation in flavor of milk, cheese and butter? But there is sure proof that the food not only affects the quality and flavor of milk products, but distinctly affects the chemical reactions of the fat of the miiij of cows. I have tested cottonseed oil and the butter made from it and the butter adulter­ ated with it. The W ashington De­ partment of Agriculture did the same, and .Dr. Taylor, thien the chemist of the department, showed by colored Illustrations that the reactions of but­ ter so adulterated, either by actual addition of the oil to the cream in the churning or by feeding the cottonseed meal, weres^precisely the same.—I t Stewart,-in Bural New Yorker. Drivinc Fence Po«t. It undoubtedly saves a good deal of hard work when building fences where posts are required to sharpen the end of the post and with a huge wooden beetle drive It deeply into the moist soil in spring as far as pos­ sible. But the plan has also Its dis­ advantages, which arc developed af­ ter a y iar or two, when frost lifts up the post every winter, so that if the top ot the fences bo heavy the post Is soon in a tumble-down condi­ tion. The failure of the driving down plan of setting the post comes from the fact that usually the post is only driven down to the depth of the an­ nual freezing in winter. When it comes to the “hard pan,” where frost has not penetrated before, the post cannot be- driven farther. Its poiht turns up or the top of the post will be split by the severe pounding it will receive. Yet unless the post is set deeper than the frost will penetrate It Is very difficult to , make it stand erect until decay has'^done its worlc. In a soil where there] is a deep nn- derdrain posts may be i set nearly to its depth by driving, a i^ remain firm so long as the post lasts. The plan is to either build a pile of|earth around the post so as to turn the) w ater away from it, or to bore a holej through the post somewhere neat, the bottom, and drive a wooden peg the' size of the hole through it and sticking out on either side to f%r as the post wiu allow. On this peg set; a three-cor- nered block that can be^nailed botli to the peg and the post This makes additional obstruction to r,th e frost to lift, and If the w ater ,haa been turned away from the post,' and can get off through the underdrains, the fence wiU remain firm as long as the post does not ro t When it does rot it will most likely be at the) surface, for there the changes ,of te n ^ ra tu re and from w et to dry are moreffrequent than they are deeper in-the soil. In most post fences the part above ground is much longer than that be­ low. It sometimes pays to take up iwst and board fences that have been long in the ground, and after putting some dUuted carb<dic ad d on parts that have decayed to prevent fnrther progress, set them with the top part in the soU. If this top is well dried it should be immersed in diluted car­ bolic add before being placed in the ground. It wlU then b e. much 1 likely to decay quickly.—Americas Gnltirator.

SUNSTROKE The summer’s awful heat will kill those not fit to resist it—those whose bodies are full of poison because they have neglected their bowels. The victims of sunstroke, or of any of the other terrible dangers of summer—diarrhoea, dysentery, cholera morbus—are always those who have been careless about keeping clean in­ side, and as a result have their blood full of rotten Rlih breeding disease germs and their bodies ready with weakness to succumb to the hot spell. Dizziness, heat headaches, sick stomachs, sticky oozing ill-smelling sweats, restless nights, terrible pains, gripes and cramps in the bowels, sudden death on the street, all result from this neglect. Keep yourself clean, pure and healthy in­ side, disinfected as it were, with CASCARETS CANDY CATt1.ARTlC, the greatest antiseptic bowel tonic ever discovered and you will find that every form of summer disease will be effectively ( ®1™.

July 24th 1900. Mr. E. H. Morris, EilitorDavie Btcrd, Dear Sir:Your li udlavor ef the 19th inst. was duly received, but on account of press of busiuesshave been unable to answer unti today. Your exglaiiatiou is entirely sat­ isfactory. Your article was quite in accord with the iutormatiou you had. But the inforinatiou was at fault, and I agree with you that the responsibility should l>e -i)lac- ed where it belongs. The prime reason iu asking you to make the correction was that the Cooleemee Cotton Mills is iu no sense political. It eschews politics and depreciileB the idea of being diuwn into political conioversifes. as it is purely a financial enterprise: and •for this reason they would es teem it a spet^ial favor ifyo.i would endevour to correct any false im­ pressions lhat msiy hav-e been crea­ ted by innaccutate statements con­necting them t ith political mat­ ters. I wish to assure you that the managemeut very much appreciate your kind fwliugs for the mills, and they will endevour to merit a contiauanee of your friendship.Very truly yourp. T .V . Terrell. This letter was written by a gen tleman, and one who has skice en ongh to recognize -rightfrom wrong. Onr letter to l-:im was ds-ted Jnly gainst the Dr. This is oue of the strongest pieces of evidence yet come to light, shomng tnat the Siimuous machine crowd purpose tiumpling under foot every man re gardless of party who does not b ow to the autocrats.

The policy that he and his followers represents is at var­ iance with every interest of our oonntry. It would cut down tbe wa"c.s of labor.

Bat they did, and soon after tte ir meal all were writhing iu pain. They were deatlily sick; they were miles from a telegraph office and there w as no telephone that could be -reached. If they all were not to die and must be called, but It seemed im- po^ible that any one of the suITerers c o ^ undertake the trip. 3 u t little Tommy volunteered. He bad a vigorous yonng appgtite and had ptrtaken unspairingly of the deadly toadstools, and so It was that he was suffering more than any other of tbe family. But that was as nothing to him: he knew be must go, and he did, willingly, only hoping that he would reach Homewood, which was three miles away, and the home of the near­ est doctor, before the pain would cause him to fall from the horse. • The lad was only half clad, but he did not wait to dress; no more did he' waste precious moments in putting a saddle on the horse.. It was with tbe greatest difficulty that he mounted; by the baiter he hnng on while he sparred the horse to his swiftest over the rough country roads. The exertion for which he was so mifitted, eoupled witJi Ills agonising Illness, told so upon the boy that Just aa be reached the door of the doctor’s bouse. He yelled as he dropped, and this brought tbe physician to the dpor. Tbe lad was carried into the house ■ad the doctor was about to treat him when the brave little fcHow gasped oat. “Don't mind me. doctor; please goto the house, for papa and mamma and the others are worse than I am.” There was no dSnbting the truth of what he said, and the doctor, giving hasty directions for his treatment, left for the Norris home. The six others In the family were so 111 that the doc­ tor conld do nothing for two of them and they died before tbe night passed, but four were brought around by the liberal use of-antidotes. But wLen the physician returned to his home it was to find the brave lit. Be fellow had passed away. W a « a a 'a Drlva to Bava IlnabM M 'a l.Ua Terre Haute, Ind.

Kinperor William's Ballicoga Sermon on Board tho Imperial Yacht. Berlin (By Cable).—The papers print a sermon preached by Emperor Will­iam on board the imperial yacht Ho- benzoliem from Exodus xvii, 11: “And it came to pass, wiien Moses held np his hand, that Israel prevailed, and when he let down his band, Amalck prevailed.” The reports show that the discourse was bellicose toward China. Of the soldiers going thither the imperial preacher said: “They shall be the strong arm which punishes assassins. They shall be the mailed fist which smites that chaotic mass. They shall defend, sword in hand, our holiest possessions. True prayers can still cast the banner of the dragon into the dust and plant the banner of the cross upon the walls.” magical EHeet of KoKlnlej'a ProlMllva TarlH PollCT-X*l«e aa Many Men at Work—oratlfyinc Bevarla From Two Handrad IMScrant Pair Bolls. “In the campaign of 1896 Mr. Mc­ Kinley made one remark which went to the hearts of the people from one end of the country to the other. It was, ‘Open the m ills,'” said General Charles Dick, Secretary of the Hepub- iican National Committee. “Those three words met with a responsive chord from those tens of thousands who had been Idle during the last Democratic administration,, and the empty dinner-pail brigade went to the poUs and -voted for a full dinner pail and for the opening of the mills. “In order to gain some idea of the effect of restoring the home market to our own people, the Republican Na­ tional Committee sent out blanks to members of the National Association of M anufacturers, asking them to kindly furnish us with the number of men whom they had employed in each year from 1890 to 1899, Inclusive, as well as with the total amount of wages which they had paid during the same years. “We have received 200 replies. These show that there was a steady increase in tbe numljer of bauds employed in the 200 factories until the year 1893, after which there .was an immediate drop of 10,000 men in 1894. But under President McKinley’s administration the increase in the number of men em­ ployed by these same factories has been startling. In 1894 they employed 90,483: in 1S97 they en.ployed 109,800; in 1898 they employed 131,428 men» and last year they employed 174,645 men. In short the number of wage earners employed by these same 200 factories has Increased from 90,433 men in 1894 up to 174,645 last year, almost doubled, in fact 'But the contrast is even more strik­ ing when applied to tbe amount of wage^ paid, and the following table shows the returns received from the same 200 manufacturers: ■ifear.

The Legislature, which will; elect a successor to Senator Marion: Butler, will be Democratic in both] branches. The Democrats will have' at least thirty-eight out of fifty Sen-i ators and eighty-nine out of 120 Rep-, resentatlves. The vote polled is one. of-the heaviest ever known in the his-^ tory of the State. The'vote for thoi (Constitutional amendment and for Ay-; cock for Governor ran well together. There was little scratching of tickets.The election was for the Governor and State officers, members of the Leg­ islature and connty officers, and for an amendment to the State Constitution looking to a practical elimination of the negi'o from politics, as the adop­ tion of the amendment would disfran­ chise the bulk of the negro vote. By far the greatest Interest centered ill tbe fight over tbe amendment. Bedaond, Otaacebmx Ckninty, 8. a . n porti an ezttaordlnary imiatftll of one fto t la a tew booia.

THE LEGISLATURE. “The amount of wages paid by these same 200 manufacturers increased steadily from 1890 until 1892, then there was a drop in 1893 and another di-op in 1894. During tbe next two years wages picked up, but It was not until 1897 that these same manufact­ urers were paying out as much money in wages as they had paid in 1892. The increase of their pay rolls in 1898 and 1899 is as gratifying to me as It must be to the men who are now busy at good wages. ‘Between 1894 and 1899 the 200 manufacturers of the National Asso­ ciation, who reported to us, had In­ creased their pay rolls upwards of $38,- 000,000; in fact, the amount of wages which they distributed last year was almost double what they paid out in 1894. “If this ratio of increase were ap­ plied to the whole country, without taking into account the numbers of new factories that have been started iu the last few years, who can deny that general prosperity has visited the country? And what a depth of mean­ ing those three words, ‘Open the mills,’ uttered by Mr. McKinley less than four years ago, has really COU' ^eyed.” ____________________ A WIILLION A DAY. . What We Pay For Tropical Frodncts Oar Islands Can Prodoce. The people of the United States are paying a million dollars a day for trop­ ical products used In the manufacture of food and drink. Most of this can be readily produced in the islands which have come |nto closer relation­ ship with the tfnited States through the events of the past two years. In the ten months ending with April our imports of tropical products were over $300,000,000 in value, thus averaging fully a million dollars a day.. India rubber, fibers, raw silk, cot­ ton, gums, cabinet woods, indigo. Ivory, dye woods and certain lines of chemicals make up the sh u e of this vast sum. Of India rubber alone tbe imports of the ten months amounted to more than $27,000,000; of fibers, to $20,000,000; of manufactured silk, $40,- 000,000; of cotton, over $7,000,000; of gums, more than $5,000,000, while cal>- inet woods, dye woods, indfgo and Ivory also aggregated.'Kveral millions, i Of the constantly Increasing propor­ tion of imports of food stuffs, sugar is first The Dutch East Indies, which lie Just alongside of the Philippines, are now our largest single source of supply for sugar.

Of tho doubtful coimties, tbe Democrats feel sure they will carry fully one-half If not more. In the west ihe very l.rtest news comes from Macon, which la said to be in doubt, Alexander, which la prob­ ably Republican, and Caldwell, which is Democratic by a narrow margin. The rews from tho west is tbt.t Buncombe gives a good Dsmocratic majority, thus insuring tbe election of two State Senators, and Burke, which gives a larger majority than ever before. No news has come from the smaller far western counties, re­ mote from railroads, and we put them in tbe doubtful column. The Populists will not have a single member of the Legislature unless they have carried Sampson, which would give them two, and Chatham, which would give them one, making three all told. They may get one or two others. The Republicans will have all the balance of the opposition.

To my mind, tbe one issue of the campaign will be patriotism. Here In Massachusetts there are a lot of men who are devoting their efforts to mak­ ing traitors of the people, and they arfe thereby driving Democrats to the sup­ port of McKinley. It is needless to say that the Bepublicans have made some mistakes, bnt absolutely the only is sues that our opponents have evolved are not based upon our mistakes, but upon our right actions. No party can achieve success merely by blindly tak­ ing tbe opposite side. I believe tbe Republican party will squarely meet all Issues, and by so doing will be triumphantly vindicated at the polls, —Albert P. Langtry, pubUsber the Morning Union, Springfield, Mass. . .

C., Special.—Secre­ tary Hay’s reply to LI Hung Chang closed the negotiations with China, unless the old viceroy is able to secure the full acceptance of our terms rela­ tive to the foreign ministers, and that at once. No orders therefore looking to a relaxation of the preparations for the advance on Pekin have gone out from W ashington, for. as the situation Is described by one of the lead­ ing oJEiciais here, there will be no bar­ gaining on our part In advaace of I'ne concession by the Chiinese authorities to “full and free communieaticu with the foreign- ministers.” Tlieru is moreover, a note onjinionsiy close to actual war in Secretary Hay's declara­ tion that "the conduct of the Chinese government is unfriendly." That kind Of langTiage is extreme in diplomacy, and it Ss only a narrow step between it and formal war. The Impression prevails here that the Chinese govern­ ment, if it is not absolutely bereft of power to act in defiance of the Boxers, will accept cur terms, and some such action is looked for very soon. Possi­ bly a battle, not more it is believed, than one, at most, will bo required tr bring the imperial government to the point of acceptance, though in tiiat case it is questionable whether the original conditions would be regarded as still epen to acceptance. If the Chinese goveniment now accepts, however, the United States govern­ ment will be brought face to face with one of the most delicate and miomen- toU3 diplomatic tasks ever undertaken. It m ust attem pt to redeem its jn-omise to use its good offices In favor of China and in the present temper of the European powere, the greatest dif- fieultiM may be expected to arise in the prosecution of the attempt. It is the confident expectation of the oE- rials here, however, that iiC the C.h)fii£e government actualfy and In good faith m e ^ all of the four conditions laid down by the President in his reply to the Chinese Emperor’s appeal for aid, that at least a majority of the powers now represented in China will accept that as a proper base upon which to cease present hostilities and open negotiations for a settlement. The de­ cision of the majority in such case without doubt would reseive the ac­ quiescence of the minority, else an in­ terminable entanglement rndght arise. 50,000 Chinese Troops io P tk n.

It has been suggested tliat If the legal ratio of silver to gold should be so changed as to approximate the com­ mercial rntloB.the objection to the free and unlimited coinage of silver would disappear. This Is not tm e. It is a well-known historical fact that a very small variation of the commercial ratio from the coinage ratio is suffl- cient to expel one of the metals from the country and disturb all business calculations and relations. When the first United States coinage net was passed, by careful calculation and inquii’y it was assumed that the true commercial ration was 15 to 1, and that was made the legal ratio. The mints were opened to the coinage of both metals on that basis. In a short time it became apparent that cither an error had. been made or the market ration had changed. The two metals would circulate together. Our gold coins were slightly more valuable as bullion than as money and were melted down or exported. This situation was maintained until the act of 1834 changed the ratio to 1C to 1, and that act, which was designed to correct it, actually reversed it It brought back gold* but drove out sil­ ver. The true commercial ratio was somewhere between 15 to 1 and 1C to 3. Fifteen to 1 drove out gold, and 10 to 1 drove out silver. A fter the act of 1S34 went into effect silver dol­ lars would not circulate in the United States unless they were light w eight From 1835 down to the opening of the year 18G2, when paper became the currency of the United States,although the mints were opened to the unre­ stricted coinage of silver, the total number of silver dollars coined was §2.700.533. lu 1829, when the change in ratio was under consideration, Albert Galla­ tin, who had been Secretary of the Treasui-y under Jefferson, was asked his opinion concerning the failure of gold to circulate, and in a letter dated December 31, wrote: Tho present rate was the result of infor­mation, clearly incorrect, respecting the then relative value of gold and silver in Europe, which ^vas represented as being at the rate of less than 15 to 1, when it was in fact 15.5 to 15.6 to 1. It would be better at all events to discontinue alto­gether the coining of gold than to con- tuiue the present system. The Hon. S. D. Ingham, who was at that time Secretary of the Treas­ ury under President Andrew Jnckson, was asked his opinion, and advised the committece that any atttem pt to make the metals circulate together un­ der free coinage would be fruitless. He wrote: The fluctuations in the value of gold and silver cannot be controlled; and even the attempt to conform the mint to the msr- liet values must produce a change in the later. But if, after adjusting the ratio at the mint by raising the value of the gold coins, it should happen that silver should rise in the market above the mint value, the silver coins—exchange with foreign countries being unfavorable—would be withdrawn from circulation, and the only remedy within the power of the Govern­ment would be to reduce their weight, as it is now proposed in respect to the gold coins. The Committee of the House of Rep­ resentatives having the m atter under investigation reported on February 22, 1831: That there are inherent and incm*able defccts in the system w’hich regulates the standard of value in both gold and silver; its instability as a measure of contracts and mutability as the practical currency of a particular nation are serious imper­fections, whilst the impossibility of main- tammg both metals in concurrent, simul­ taneous, or promiscuoui! circulation appears to be clearly ascertained; that the stand­ard being fixed in one metal is the nearest approach to invaiiablcness, and precludes the necessity of further legislative inter­ference. The change In rates continued, how­ ever, to be agitated, and was advo- catetl with great energy by Thomas H. Benton. His argument is summed up as follows in Benton’s Thirty Years’ View, vol. 1, page 443. Mr. Benton said this was not the time to discuss the relative value of gold and Sliver, nor to urge the particular propor­tion which ought to be established between them. That would be the proper work of a^ committee. At present it might be suffi­cient, and not irrelevant, to say that this question was one of commerce, that it was purely and simply a mercantile problelta, as much so as is acquisition of any ordi- ’'•^rv merchandise fit>m foreign countries aid be. Gold goes where it finds its value, and that value is what the laws of great nations give it. In Mexico and oouth America, the countries which pro­duce gold, and from which the Umted fstates must derive their chief supply, the value of gold is 16 to 1; in the West In­ dies, generally, it is the same. It is not to be supposed that gold will come from those countries to the United States if the im­porter is to lose one dollar in every six- tcCT that he brings, or that our own gold Will remain with us when the exporter can give one dollar in every fifteen that he carries out. Such results wotild be contrary to the rules of trade, and there­fore we must place the same value upon go<d that other nations do if we wiah to gain any part of their trade or to retain any part of our own. Benton’s statements that gold would not come to th’s country if the Im- poiter must lose one dollar in every sixteen, or stay If an exporter could make one oollflr in sixteen, would have been equally true if he said on one dollar in thirty-two. Indeed, the gain by exporting silver after the act of 1834 was passed was not more than one dollar in thirty-two. The ratio in the United States was 16 to 1, and that difference was sufficient to take our silver to France.. Tlie Vosa of All Bossef. Mark Hanna is accused of being a boss because he conducted a victorious campaign and secured the election of William McKinley. Bryan has forced his own nomination, has dictated the platform, and by long-dlstanee tele­ phone^ managed the Kansas Olty con­ vention from, start to finish.

Such •jntrioilsn) ’S.liJ line with his volunteer- ccuvmission l\,ust; i^ o re bi^ regiment .was ordered the Children and Good Uoads. Having spent my summers for over thirty years at Oconomowoc, Ir the Waukesha County lake district of Wisconsin, I have become interested in advancing—or, attempting to ad­ vance, and it is often very up-hill work—various Improvements in the village and surrounding countrj'. Last summer I organized a “Good Roads Committee” of three (naming myself chairman), and raised, in teu- dollar subscriptions, two hundred dol­ lars to go, this coming season, to tfie roadmasters in the townships of Ocon­ omowoc and Summit for the best roads. I have also offered the League's good roads literature free to* the road-masters, advertising same in the local papers. To show the inter­ est taken by the farmer element, I will state that two out of forty odd road­ masters applied for the good road books. Our roads are fair, as country roads go. most of them gravelled, but only a few of the road-masters pay any atten­ tion as to how the gravel is put on, and the best roads are often left to dish, through heavy wear, in the cen­ ter, while others are crowned to the most extreme point. However, we fortunately approached the children of the district schools, offering them no large cash prizes, but merely a little scrap of ribbon with •‘Good Roads Helper” printed upon it, and. at Christmas time, very inexpensive Christmas cards to each child enrolled. The attached clipping will tell tho story of the children’s Interest in the m atter and what they have done in three or four winter mouths: I t is becoming very apparent to the frequenters of our highways lu the towns of Summit and Oconomowoc that the Good Roads Committee acted most wisely when they appealed to the children attending the district schools in these towns to co-operate w ith them In the further improvement and beautifying of our country roads, by signifying their willingness in be­ coming Good Road Helpers. It was surprising how eagerly and cheerfully these little folks put their shoulders to the wheel, every school In the two towns, with the exception of one school in the town of Oconomowoc, signing the agreement as Good Roads Helpers. That these children ha-ve not labored in vain In the good causo is evidenced by the reports we are re­ ceiving, from various sources, of the noticeable absence of loose and rolling stones in our principal highways. Mr. Jacob Hill, of Summit, reports that he has never seen the roads so free ,of stones, and that the children in ills school district have done a noble work. He pleasantly tells us that the interest of the children has assumed such proportion that while driving they will tease to have you stop to let them get out to remove an obnoxious stone. Wise road-builders they who lay so sure a foundation for our future coun­ try roads; and people will rise up and call them benefactors.” The clipping was taken from the local country weekly and the Mr. Hill mentioned is not one of the old-fash- loned farmers who thinks we do not need better roads, or, as one of them said to me last year, “If you city fel­ lers wants fine roads, why don’t you build them? The roads are good enough for the farmers.” Yet narrow tires cut these gravel roads, when the frost is coming out of the ground, so that often good sales (of grain held over winter) arc missed, as loads can­ not be hauled to market.—W.

Averj-, an Advent­ ist. has taken upon his shoulders the responsibility of keeping the bicycle boulevard at Holyoke, Mass., clear of cobblestones and any other obstacles that may make riding dangerous. Early in the morning and late at night he can be seen toiling away with a rake, and the hoots and jeers of boys and girls who pass do not seem to an­ noy him in the least. To Commission­ er Walsh, ot the Board of Public Works. Mr. Avery said he w«s led to do the work after a ride over the boulevard which nearly resulted in an accident to himself. “When I went home,” he said, “I could, not take my mind off the many cobblestones which 1 had seen in the street. Then the Lord appeared to me and directed that I should rake up the stones. He pointed out to me the fact that since I was aware of the danger I would be responsible if an accident occurred. As long as He tells me to do this. I shall continue to «arry out His instructions. Commissioner Walsh told Mr. Avery that if he would continue the good work on other city highways the Board might compens.'ite him. “No.” was the reply. “I would not take any money. That’s the curse of man to-day. his greed for money. My reward will come in the hereafter.” The street which Mr. Avery is tak­ ing core of is about a -mile long. He is about iifty-five years old.—New York Sun. Slate A id Appreciated. All but thirteen towns in the State of Con:;ecticnt have complied with the requirements in order to obtain State aid for improved highways. Highway Commissioner James H. MacDonald has extended the time within which towns may vote to accept the State’s offer in order to give the delinquent towns an opportunity to arrange themselves with the -other towns of the State. During the year 1899 J301.- (XX) was apportioned among the towns which built roads under State aid and supervision, leaving about $36,000 of the appropriation unexpended. Thli-- ty-two other towns applied for State aid this year. I.aw In ibe Indian Territory. United States Commissioner Don Carlos has decided that S. W.

Nine out of ten old people are constipated because the muscles of their intestines have become weak, worn out and flabby. Constipation is the curse of old age, causes bile and add poisons to remain in the blood, making the skin yellow and wrinkled, the eyes bleary and causing the “bones to ache.” Keep the bowels strong, healthy and regular and old age loses all its terrors and weak­ nesses.

Bryan aud Adhil E, Stevenson were offlclally and formally notified of their nomlnatlott by the Democrats at their recent Kansas City Convention to the offices respectively of President and Vice-President of the United States. The notification occurred In the Mill-; tai-y Park, a beautifully shaded tract of land in the centre of the city. Thei park contains probably thirty acres of ground, and It was well covered \Vlth people. The ceremony was preceded by a parade through the principal streets of the city, which was participated In by a number of visiting and local Dem­ ocratic clubs. The meeting began a, few minutes after 3 o’clock and con-i eluded at 5.40 p. m. i'lve speeches were made, Mayor Taggart, of Indian^ apolls, adding a welcoming address to the notification speeches of Represent­ ative Richardson and Governor Thom­ as, and responses were made by Mr. Bryan and Mr. Stevenson. The platform on which the speeches were made was elevated about sir feet above the park lawn, and upon It sat the candidates and their families, the members of the National Commit­ tee and of the two notification com-j mittees, as well as a few Invited guests. The meeting was called to or­ der In a brief speech of welcome by Mayor Taggart, of this city, and who Introduced Senator Jones as the Per­ manent Chairman of the meeting. Senator Jones made no speech upoi^ taking the chair, but confined his re-; marks to the simple Introduction of the speakers to the audience. Congressman James D. Richardson, of Tennessee, to whose lot, as Per­ manent Chairman of the Xatlonal- Convention, fell the duty of informing Mr. Bryan of his nomination, made thei first of the notification addresses. Mr. Br.van was then Introduced by Senator Jones. He read his speech,' departing not from his manuscript ex-j cept In a word of explanation at the. beginning of his address. He never appeared to better advantage. His. face was slightly fiushed, but his eye' was clear and calm, and his voice W'as' never more completely at his com­ mand. The closing sentences were re- iwated from memory In a most eltect-i ive manner. The speech took one hour and ten minutes to deliver,Mr. Bryan’s speech was devoted to Imperialism. He promised a discus­ sion of all the other Issues In his letter of acceptance. In regard to a solution of the Philippine question, he said: “This plan I unreservedly Indorse. If elected, I shall convene Congi'ess In extraordinary session as soon as I am Inaugurated, and recommend an Immediate declaration of the nation's pui'pose, first, to establish a stable form of government in the Pblllpplne Islands, just as we are now establish­ ing a stable form of government In the island of Cuba; second, to pve in­ dependence to the Filipinos, just as W(> have promised to give independ­ ence to the Cubans; third, to protect the Filipinos from outside Interfer­ ence while they w'ork out their des­ tiny, Juk as we have protected the re­ publics of Central and South America, and arc, by the Monroe Doctrine, pledged to protect Cuba.” Mr. Bryan was promptly followed by Governor Thomas, of Colorado, who Introduced Mr. Stevenson. Governor Thomas spoke only, tea minutes. Jlr. Stevenson was apparently slight­ ly nervous as the time approached for him to take the stand, but he soon gained confidence as he proceeded. He rend from his manuscript, but held the majority of his audience to the end. Mr. Stevenson discussed many sub­ jects before touching upon imperial­ ism. which he then declared was the paramount issue.

San Francisco (Special).—In this city, renowned for keen contests over wills, there Is brewing a contest that bids fair to prove more bitter than any of the famous fights for property In the history of California, The amount Involved Is not large when compared to the enormous sums that have been fought for In other California will con­tests, but this fight has an element that adds Interest to It—an accusation that a daughter, in order to inherit the entire property of a mother, killed the mother with poison. It was openly charged at the inquest Into the death of Mrs. Almira S. Town send, that her daughter, Mrs. Ella F. Murray,not only conspired to cause her death, but did actually cause it. Tiiis charge was made by former Supreme Court Justice Van R. Paterson, coun­ sel for Joseph W. Coburn, a brother of Mrs. Townsend and a claimant for part of the estate, which is valued at about 5500,000. The developments after the death of Mrs. Townsend on July 21, have been astonishing. Mrs. Townsend was extremely sensitive about her age. She was anxious to pass for a much younger woman than she was. lu following out this decjption she saw fit to Introduce her only daughter, Mrs. Ella P. Murrray, of Dorchester, Jla«s., as her sister. When Mrs. Miu*ray vis­ited San Francisco and w^ent about with her mother she was always known as Mrs. Townsend’s sister. Thomas F. Townsend, the father of Mrs. Murray, was divorced by Mrs. Townsend In Boston, in 18T0. Some time after this Mrs. Townsend came to this city. A well-known Millionaire, who died recently from poison, Avns her patron, and It was through him that she ol)tained the greater r^irt of her fortune. > When Mrs. Townsend died suddenly Mrs. Murray, who lived at the Pa'ace Hotel, took charge of the house and Itj contents. Two days after Mrs. Town­ send’s death ihere appeared at tlie house and demanded admittance Thomas W. Townsend, the divorced husband, who has baen twice married since his first wife left him. At abnut the same time appeared .Foseph W Coburn. Mrs. Townsend’s brother Townsend, It appears, has been a resident of San Frunciseo since If'TC. At times he lived within a few l)lo< ks of the foriuor Avifc, but of his wiieic- abouts she had no knowledge. He, however, had boasted that he had bven her husband and would come into some of her property under her will. The brother, Joseph Coburn, has lived In San I'raneiseo twenty yenr.-i, but in ail that time he never saw his sister, nud she was totally ianornnt, according to his story, that he was here. He never called to see her wlieu slit was alive, but her body was scarcely cold in death when he ap­ peared with law.vcrs to make a flght for a share of her money. Mrs. Murray, having possession of tire hon.se of her mother, refu.=od iMi- trance to tho divorecd husband and Ihe brother. They amicably joined fo.-ces and are now arrayed .ngaiast her, as­ serting that Jlrs. Townsend let! a will recognizing them. Mrs. Murray is backed up by Miss Rattigau. the form­ er private seeretar.v of the dead wom­ an, who swears that Mrs. Townsend never made a will. If It be i>roved that Mrs. Townsend died intesti-.te thii entire estate reverts to Jlrs. Mur.a.v. The autopsy revealed that Mrs. Townsend had died from heart dis­ ease, but at the Inquest .Tustice Pater­ son, for the brother, Coburn, tried to introduce evidence showing tiuit Mrs. Townsend had been poisoned.'The Coroner, however, held that no testimony other than that having a direct bearing on the death of the woman could be admitted, and on tiio testimony adduced along these line.i the jury rendered a verdict of death from natural causes. Now all hands are resting. A request has been sent to Boston for the let­ters allcge<l to have been written by the Intentions of her daughter, and until those letters, it there be sueh, arrive, no step will be taken by the contesting parties, althonjh tlie broth­ er and husband are hunting for evi- deuce to prove a will.

Tbe Oil Trnet Declares a Dividend ol Elcht Per Cent—»»,0OO,O<IO WIU B< DUIrlbnted Amons tbe Stoekbolderi -John D. Kockefeller’e 8hara ol lb« Proflti.^Be BeeeiTU ■164,383 a Day' New ro rk City (Speclal).-The Stan­ dard Oil Company of New Jersey, the Standard Oil Trust, has declared a div­ idend of eight per cent on the capital stock of $100,000,000. This Is the third dividend to be declared this year. The lirst dividend was paid on March 15, of twenty per cent; the second on June 15, ot ten per cent, and the third will be paid September 15. This, makes a total since March. 1899, of seventy-one per cent, or about ?11,- 000,000, or more than two-thjrds of the capital of almost $100,000,000. And It Is expected that one more quarterly dividend will lie paid. Some persons thought that ten per cent, would h-ave been declared had it not been for the Bayonne fire, that cost a'., out $1,500,000. That fire was disregarded by the Standard Oil man­agers. The loss of one or two mill­ ions of dollars was expected. The company does not insure its property, but setk’ aside sp much ot Its earnings to pay fire losses. Dividends are dis­ tributed regardless of the profit or loss in that account. The wealth of John D. Rockefeller, president ot the Standard Oil Com­ pany, is growing at a rate incompre­ hensible to the average mind. He Is being submerged In his downpour ot riches. He could not dodge the steady, persistent influx of wealth if he wished. Every instant the clock ticks off a second, day and night Sun­ days and holidays, he gets more money than the average man earns in a week.He owns thirty-one per cent of tha capital stock ot the Standard Oil Com­ pany ot New Jersey. This Is merely the parent corporation ot the Innum­erable subsidiary companies which compose the tru st Each of these com­ panies makes its own profits and the trust gets its share from the owner­ ship of stock in them. The trust owns fifty-one per cent of tlie stock ot all these subsidiary com­ panies, and it has made $38,000,000 so far this year out of that ownership. The remaining forty-nine per cent of the stock of the subsidiary companies is owned liy John D. Rockefeller out- ri.ght In addition to his thirty-one per cent inter.est In the parent corpora­ tion.His share of the dividends so far d<yjai-ed this year by the parent trust is *11.780.000. His forty-nine per cent, chare of the profits of the sub­ sidiary companies is $36,510,000, mak­ ing in all $48,290,000 that he has re­ ceived so far this year from his Inter­ ests In oil. But this man’s wealth is so great that the oil Indstry. Immense as It Is, Is not large enough to employ his riches. He owns an interest In In­ numerable railroads, banks, insurance and trust companies, mining corpora­ tions and Industrial enterprises. His investments In these corpor.a- tions will bring Ills total income this year up to at least $60,000,000, and perhaps to $75,000,000. Based upon $60,000,000 his dally Income for every one of the 305 days In the year Is $1C1,38.S, one-fourth of which would be deemed an Independent fortune by the average family.

A CIri't A ssgtTinj UabilltlM. “I can row, play golf and tenn!*, fence, dance, skate," exdsUned Sarali Mllgs. in a recent sketch by Miss Bay­ lor; “1 can dress extraTaganUy, I can play the piano and paint atrociously on cblna, I can speak Frencb and 6 er, man, I can ride and drive. “I cannot dress myself. I do not even take care of my hands. 1 can­ not cook a thing.' I have no idea hoi» to make coffee, fry eggs, or how much of anything to give out for any meal. I cannot sew on-the machine or with my fingers. I have no idea what ser­ vants ought to do, how they ougbt to do it, how soon they ought to accom­ plish it. I cannot take care of chll dren. I faint In a sickroom.” Facing such assets and liabilities of a fashionable education, no wonder Sarah declared It something terrifying to become the head of a family on a moment's notice! Yet, some time In her life, the sudden call to preside over the household of a husband, a father, a son or a brother comes to the majority of women. WTiat will she do about it? Will she enter upou her duties boasting of the tact that the kitchen Is an undiscovered country, and confident that instinct ivlll over­ balance her Ignorance? Or will she, rather, like Sarah Mlggs, acknowledge her deflcleucles and rise to meet them? Sarah made a grand novitiate. W hat might have been learned almost un­ consciously under a careful mother's eye she sought In tratnlug classes and the homes of more practical friends. Uoastology, bakolog.v, marketolog.v, patchology, darnolpgy, nurseology be­ came her study and her practice, it was no easy task, and one which her wealth made apparently unnecessary. “I am not going to be a fraud as a wife,” she. Insisted to all remon­ strances. "I am going to keep my share of the contract I am going to take charge of Dick and his house and his children just as if I were a lawyer taking a case, or a merchant setting up a store, or a captain taking command of a ship.” The whole tenor of her future proved i'uat she was right. To row, to play solf, to dress charmingly, to be con- rcrsant w ith the whole gamut ol ac­ complishments is commendable, but no voung woman who has not iu some de­ gree mastered the intricacies of do- aiestie science is qualified to become ■.he queen of thi' home and so arbitrate •.he destiny o£ a family.—The Congve- ;atlonallBt. Rearing Queen Bees. To secure good, large, prolific queens, they should be reared at swariniiis time. Karly queens are what every beekeeper wants, and the best -xutfns are reared under the swarmiuj,’ h '- pnlse. At that time the larva h (i.l profusely with royal jelly, and l>^gi>, long-lived queens result. There is no danger of sm£ 11, half-chilled queens. Five or six days after a swarm has is­ sued, go to the parent hive and c.\- amlne for queen cells. You will find anywheje from one to a dozen scat­ tered about the combs, but generally at the bottom. Take two or more frames of brood witb adhering bees containing one or more queen cells and place in a new hive. The young queens will emerge in a day or two. One can make from two to five divisions, each nucleus having a virgin queen. W hen the queens are from seven to ten days old they usually go for their wedding tlight and when successfully mated retnrn to their bives to stay for f*-« rest of their lives, which is from two to four year-s, never leaving the hive again except a t swarming time. Many young queens are lost in mating. This is the most nncertain thing about queen rearing. Queens of the current year's rearing will rarely swarm, but I have reared qaeens in Sl.ay that have built np so strong a colony that they crowded themselves out by August. All rules are occasionally broken by bees.—F. G. Herman, in New Englanc Homestead. The Meu’a Origl*. The origin of the m enu earn bus been traced to the Pnk« of Brunswick. He was observed in the intervals of a ban­ quet to scan carefully a long strip of paper by the side of his plate, and when the cnrlous guests ventured to Inquire into the nature of his stndles he ex­ plained that it was a sort of programme of the dishes which he had commanded from the cooks, to the Intent that if some delicacy which especially appeal­ ed to him were marked for a late stage m the repast he might carefully re­ serve his appetite for It. The simpli­ city and beauty of the idea appealed in stantly to the duke’ convivers, and the menu card from that moment became 8C institution. In its old-fashioned form, wc ape told, the bill was usually written in large letters on cards of such Imposing dimensions that room for only one could be found at each end of the board W hen wjr is kind as well as play­ ful, when information knows how to be silent, as well as how to speak, when good will is shown to those who are absent as well as to those who are present, we may know that we are In good society.—August Ladies’ Home Journal. |FightYoar Liver, it you -want to .

'AO attem pt has been made by the Department of ‘Agriculture to define with greater certainty the areas In the United States suited to the ^ow th of high-grade sugar beets. To this end seeds of the sugar beet have been dis­ tributed in the most promising locali­ ties and grown under Identical condi­ tions of culture, according to instruc­ tions prepared by the division. The- only variance, therefore, has been the soil and climate. The beets thus grown have been analyzed, either In the Di­ vision of Chemistry or at the agricul­ tural experiment stations, and their saccarine qualities ascertained. As a result of the experiments which have been conducted in this manner, the areas In the original map constructed by the division, showing the probable areas suited to beet culture, have been more definitely pointed out. This work is stm In progress, and If continued for a few years longer wiU result In ob­ taining the data whereby the sugar beet areas of the country can be mapped with a considerable degree of accuracy. Of the work accomplished by the sec­ tion of foreign markets during the p.ist three years one of the most Important teatures was the study of trade possi­ bilities growing out of the Spanlsh- Amerlcan war. The Islands that were brought into closer relationship to the United States by the war naturaUv be­ came the subject of great commercial Interest, and numerous inquiries were received regarding the trade opportu­ nities that might be expected to result. As the w ar progressed the requests for information relative to Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines increased to snch an extent that the section was obliged to devote Its attention almost entirely to the subject of these new de­ pendencies. To meet the active de­ mand for information along this line several special reports were prepared for publication embodying such data as could be obtained regarding the commerce that was beginning to at­ tract so much interest .Tust before the breaking out of the war, when the prev.alllng conditions seemed to point to probable hostilities, a report was published on the subject of our trade with Cuba, presenting de­ tailed information as to the nature and value of the products Imiiorted and ex­ ported, .md suggesting the commercial possibilities that could be looked for with a fuller development of Cuban re­ sources. As soon as Porto Kico began to be of special interest', owing to the shifting of the w ar campaign in fts direction, an exhaustive report was prepared on the commerce of the island, setting forth in the fullest possible manner the character of the trade carried on with the several foreign countries, and cSjiecially with the United States. I.ater a report of 100 pages was pub­ lished regarding the trade of the Phil­ ippines, embracing practically all of the available statistics on the subject that could be collated from tne ofljcial import and export returns of the va­ rious countries enjoying commercial in­ tercourse with the Islands. The report on tho trade of the Phil­ ippines was supplemented by a circular de.iling with the agi-icultural resources of tho islands, and describing the most important plant products. Owing to the scarcity of reliable data relative to Cuba, Porto Eico and the Philippines, the preparation of the re­ ports on these former Spanish poses- slons required a vast amount of re­ search. It was profitable worif, how­ ever, for the reports proved to be ex­ ceedingly useful as a means of an­ swering the frequent requests that were received for information about the new dependencies. Experiments -n’ith grasses .md forage plants have been vigorously prose­ cuted during the past three years. These experiments are necessary in or­ der that ranchers and farmers may bo informed of the kinds suitable for their resDectlve districts. After these pre­ liminary facts are determined the prom­ ising varieties can be recommended and adopted witliout further and use­ less expenditure of time and money. Alany of the vast cattle ranges of the West have been practically destroyed by overstocking or mismanagement and it has become a serious question as to what are the best grasses with W’hlch to reseed them. The division has spent much time and energy in this line of Investigation, and, through Its work in the field and experiments, is prepared to meet many of the more Important forage problems of the va­ rious parts of the United States. Dur­ ing the past three-years the agrostolo- gist has distributed 5503 packages of seeds of grasses ana forage plants; em­ bracing 2-51 varieties. These sce<ls were largely procured through foreign importations and by special collections In the field made by agents or em­ ployes of the division. M o n e y In uircalatlon.

The partisan accusation of imperial- i“to plain every­ day English in the light Of the history made during the brilliant administra­ tion of President McKinley, is simply tms; Tlie BepuWicaos <leclare tiiat it is their policy not to blindly abandon the islands transferred from Spanish to American sovereignty by the treaty of Paris. The Democracy, so far as it has a polic.v, would have the master nation-builder of the world abandon its plain duty, furl our triumphant flog and hunt an easy future rather than a working futiire, Porto Kico, recogniz­ ing the fact that she cannot stand alone, does not wish to become an in­ dependent power, and the only thin- possible io for the United States to eon- tmue Its sovereignty, which is Repub- llcan, or to invite Spain to ro-onter the estern Hemisphere and commence anew her policy of misrule, of robbery and extortion from wliich we have de­ livered Cuba. To plant the customs of the seventeenth century Is Demo­ cratic. This is the logical conclusion when the Democrjitic cry of the Demo­ cratic platform Is analyzed. The same is as true of the Philip­ pines as of Porto Rico. Will the Democrats dare to fix a date for tho evacuation of eithev? They are under the flog of the republic, and there they will remain. Tiiis means work and thought and statesmansljip for the peo­ ple of the United States, but it means blessing and liberty, justice and op­ portunity for the islands placed under our care by solemn treaty obligations that were apiwoved b.v the Senate of the United States, and urged by Mr. Bryan. Methods of administration and of government are legitimate objects of party diCCerences. But anne.\ation IS a tact. It is for all purposes as much an accoiiiplisiied fact as Is the abolition of siavcrj-, another Repub­ lican measure for which that party was hated and misrepresented. The people will learn that Impei-ial- ism, as employed by the Democrats, moans that they would have the coun­ try shirk its duty, turn its bacic on des­ tiny, count all Woodshed .is lost, furl the flag and withdraw Its protection from people who need it to-day more than ever before in all their bistofy- The charge of imperialism, when properly translated, means duty. And the party of Lincoln, of Grant, of Har­ rison, and of McKinley, is willing to be charged with doing its duty no mat­ ter how hard that duty may be. Stripped of .ill gl.imor, the Demo­ crats have entered upon a flag-furling campaign. They condemn expansion, yet welcome Hawaii, because Us one vote alone enables them to again at­ tempt to overthrow the stable currency of the country. They decry "imperial­ ism,” yet shout themselves hoarse over an Hawaiian “inince." They are wel­ come to all tiie votes and glory they 'can make out of such duplicity and treachery, which will nauseate, but never deceive the true Amerieao peo­ ple. Patent t ff ice Pro8peron«.'

But perhaps he is at bis best in tlie north of the dark continent; for a Barbary bird is an edi­ tion de luxe compared with tbe Cape variety. Also he is less valuable than once he was, when the Incubator was an unknown resource and batching out chicks a more hazardous undertaking than it is now. Though in tbe old days ?2,500 passed bands often for a first rate pair of birds, which now $75 wHI purchase, and a “plucking” will go for ?7.50 that in palmy times would have fetched $125, ostrich farming is not a played out profession. No stock farm can be a greater disappointment and anxiety to its owner than one de­ voted to ostriches—the most extraor­ dinarily “pornickety” birds imagin­ able, the most willful and the most ob­ stinate. Any one who fancies tliai be­ cause the creatures can digest such things as gimlets, soap and old gloves, and in consequence argues that they are hardy brutes, they may appear to be. Is very wrong, indeed. The birds suffer from mysterious ills in extreme childhood that carry them off by flocks, and iu adult age are so quarrelsome of temper and brittle of leg that the amal­ gamation is all too frequently the cause of an untimely end. I.,ittle Hottentots are employed to herd the chicks and feed them when they are ready to go out of doors, and lazy by nature as their elders are a sore trouble to the farmers. One of their vagaries Is to neglect their charg­ es, another to kill them because they are troublesome. When tbe chicks grown up. as they speedily do, they take their revenge upon their whilom guardians. They steal tbeil food, they scare them, and would maim and kill them if the chil­ dren did not carefully keep out of their way. and wield the “tackey" when they encounter the irate birds. Tb s is a weapon without which the most valiant man is as a babe before an ostrich that Is “quel”—in other words, vicious. It is simply a branch of tbe mimosa, with the prickles left on the bead of it. When tbe ostrich runs amuck tlje “tackey** is brandished in bis face; he shuts his eyes instinctively to avoid the long prickles, and the at­ tacked vi<^tim promptly dodges p.im as he proceeds on his headlong and in- T'jriated rush. Tender-hearted women who are try­ ing to stamp out tbe destruction of rare and beautiful birds, because of the sacrifice of their lives for tbe sake of their feathers, do not object to os­ trich plumes because tbe life of the bird is not forfeited; neither, they are persuaded, is the process of plucking a severely paiiiful one. They are right. Though the birds when they are driv­ en into the box that cabins them while they are deprived of theli^eathers ex­ hibits Intense and foolish alarm, and would wreak no end of vengeance on one another and tbe “bands” engage* In plucking them If they had the op­ portunity, no sooner are they out of the box than they dance off, apparently much more frightened than hurt. They behave, indeed, precisely like sheep bought to tbe shearing shed. Like sheep, too, they are branded. After the plucking the feathers have all to be sorted and tied up, a piece of work-ordinarily performed by pro­ fessional sorters. Again the services of the farmer’s wife, who plays an ac­ tive part in an ostrich farm, may be called Into requisition to wash those plumes that are badly soiled. In each wing there are a couple of dozen long white handsome feathers. The ostrich is on such a big scale all round that he is a most formidable creature to deal with In peace or “quel." Twenty-four hens’ eggs go to tha one that incloses him as a chick, so that before he is hatched he Is a handful. His height is huge; with his two toed ft*eet he can stamp and kick with tremendous force; he runs as swiftly as a horse, and his stupidity Is colossal.

H, Morris, editor of the Dav­ it Recoid, wauts Federal inteifer- ence in onr state elections. We snppoB* he wants Federal Bay­ onets at the Polls so as to allow, liy tnrce, negro blys non-residents and ev«convicts, to vote. Mr. Morris should know that North ratolina, as » sovereiRn State, can icgulateits own internal affairs without outside interference.—Ev­ ening Herald. The above was taken from Will X. Coley’s paper. Yes, wears in faror of federal interference, if it lie necessary to put a stop to the disgrace and outrages put In prac­ tice by the Simmons gang in this state- Yonr crowd are a nice lot of fellow to talk about n^roes. ex •snvicts and non-residents voting. According to the election returns from the Eastern counties, and fcs- pecia'ly Halifax county, where yonr crowd counted 726 more votes than were registered. You must have voted the “yallow dogs.” It 'eeniB that yon not only got the »hite vote but the nigger also, »ith these figures before you, don’t you think its time for “white su pienie” to shut np. I am oppos­ 'd to coavicis, Donoresidents, and ■ninors voting, and I am also op- P®^ to Bed shirt intimidatiou, I am also opposed to depriving any ■Ban of his rights, but bj due pro- 'ssoflaw. In fact and in good Wocalg vhich is worse for a few to '»teiU^3jly^ or to deprive thODB- of legal votersjof thei^ right vote! Both are wrongand both 1 condemn, do yqpt Somebody should, and no dqubt will we*r *Wpes jor the great of this election. Uow 9 'fords with refernce to an oth­ er cditofiBl In the Herald of the 10th, atid ire are done, We may have made a mistake in failing to credit that piece to the Dispatch, rre cer~ (aioly got it from tbe Herald, and was certainly under the impression that it was his own “stuff,” how­ ever ve take hia word for it. The reply to our article is so contetup- tible atid little, that we feel a con­ descension in noticing it. but since he was so i>er80u.il and nsed oiir name so often, aud spoke of our pa?t record, that we feel called up­ ou to reply. We plead guilty to having once been a ‘'Democrat.” We never endorsed n^ro rule or domination then, nor do we non*, 170 man can say tliat be has heard us 'make a speech in favor of n^ro rule, and Vben Will C!oley says that we advocate it, he tells that which is untrue. As Will Coley knows onr heart so ^thoroughly and thinks it important to tell the people of Vance oounty why we left the Democratic party, we will give him onr reasons, and ask him if he is honest and fair to tell the people of Vance county that he has simf ly misrepresented us, knowing that we :couId not well place our reply before his readers and he can also tell them that he dare not come to Davie aud say to onr face, what he says behind our back. Yes we left the Democratic party, and are proud of It, we left lecanse it had violated and broken its pledges, aud brought ruin upon our country. We left it because we believe the principles of the Bepublii'an party are best for the peopl,eand the country. In 1893 while we were enjoying' a piece of Democratic pie, we bad a convers lotion with a leading Bepublican of thiseoonty, the late W. E. Ellis Esq., in that conversation I made this proposition to him, “that tbe Democratic party kept its pled gee, and prosperity followed “that he was to votewi.h mein 1896 and on the other hand if it fitiled to keep its pl«dg<^ and prosperity did not come, I would vote tbe Bepub~ lican ticket. In 1896 as an honest man I carried oat the pledge and voted for William McKinley for wbidi I have no regrets and no apoli^y. Tbe Bepublican leaders of Davie county have always had too mnch respect for me to offer to bny my vote, and the man who wonld intimate such a thing is a coward and a cur, as for the post' mastership at this place, I think the people^generally will say Ive made an acceptable officer. 1 shal not like yon, drag my pr^eM«80r into this article further thau ttTsiiy Uiat the . &mily is intently pattizad and Democratic and the office had been in the family for A Retrospeot. tew about 30 years if I am not misin^ formed. Yes Ive got a piece ot pie as you call it, but I neither lied, committed fraud, or intunidated, nor stuffed ballot boxes, nor stole nigger votes to get it, and never will. The great trouble with you is, that you envy others for enjoys ing that which you can never at*. tain, the Herald fetarted oat inde^ pendant, iiis now intensely Demo> I cratic, whyt we presume it was not for pie. Yon say Bepublican Davie has never hada nvgro officer Ko, theBapnbUcana in this oounty have never pot one in offioe, but I yoor booid Dentocratic commiss^ ionm a few years back put David Carter a n ^ o in as a poll holder in McduvUle, One ofyonc Demo' dstic JFb d^tized a negro, ve ar­ rest a white imui ill'this ^nnty^ Just like some of yrar white sa« ptemaey fellows have' done down- ea^, and then sqoall nigger at E«- pnbHeanB.-- _ ; The Times was always Opposed to the war with Slttin, and from the very beginaliig of the agitation protested. We could never see any BUfficieiit cause for that war, and tlBie and again we asked through these columns, “What is our casus belM” And the qnes« lion was never answered to the sat­ isfaction of the -limes. But there was aery for war. and the tide could not be stemmed. It came largely from those who had so late- ly been arrayed against the “mon­ ey powtr.” and they declared that the people wonld rise np and make short work of the Spaniards if they were not held in by the “fi­ nancial intereete” of the country. Willis J. Abbott, editor of the New York Journal, said that “f-*il- ur • on the part of KcKinley to act decisively for intervention in be­ half of Cuba will leave "everything open for the Democrats to sweep the country with “free Cuba” as its »hibboleth.” Congtfssman Bailey, leader of the Democrats in the House, was reported to have said in Pittsburg that “he wished to Heaven he was empoweied to declare war,” If so his first call would raise a vast ar« my of volunteers, and that within forty days be would have tbe Stars and Stripes floating over Havana. Congressmrn Lentz, an Ohio Democrat, made a speech in the House in which he de ounced the administratioa tor delaying to go no war. charging that this policy was in tlie intrest of scock jobbers n Wall Street. Bnt the President was slow to act. He was quoteda^ saying that he would not permit himself to be jingoed iuto war until he had ex­ hausted every effort in the direc» ion ot an honorable peace. Sena- or Daniel was fair enough to say at the time that be believed the Pres ident was pursuing the right couTcO, and that l^ewas not dis- , posed to join with ^ose who were j condemning him, \i'e are trying if I to show that the mo^t- warlike men iu the country'were the President's political opponents, and certain Democratic members of Congress boasted that they compelled the Eepublicans to declare war. ; But by and by the President saw that srar must come, and at his request Congress on April 18,1898 adopted a “joint resolution for the recognition of the independence of the people of Cuba.” which was I equivalent to a declaration of war The only objection of Mr. Morgan, Mr. Mason and other warlike Dem ocrats was that tbe resolution was not strong enough, and Mr. Mor­ gan offered as a substitute a res(^; lotion formally declaring war ji- gainst Spain. The war was w n begun and was soon over. • Stiain sued for peace, and fieally a t’^ ty was agreed to by which it wis pro­ vided that Cuba should be free, tint that the Hiilippiues shonld b“ red­ ed to the United States. The Ian guage is as plain as it eonid be made. When the treaty went to tbe Senate of the United States to ; fie ratified there was objection on the part of some of the Democrats, bnt Mr. William J. Bryan, the eaderof the party, advised th Democrats to vote for the treaty, and it was ratified by the votes of forty Bepnblicans, three Pepuliste, ten Democrata, three Silver men j and one Independent. Democrats and Eepublicans uni* ted in bringing on the war; Demo- erats and Bepnblicans united in ratifying the treaty of peace by which the Philippines fell into oar hands, and so np to this point the respoiuribilitiy was as much upon the OM party as the other. In fatVing the Philippines it wasclear" ly oat of the question to follow the line ot condnct pursued in the an> nexation of territory in former i days— to wit. with the view even­ tually and with tbe provision ex prened that Buch temtory sh-ould fi^ ly bead^t^;into t^e sister h«i«lo1 sta ^ r Hadit been pro- pos'ed to pursue this course with r^erenoe to tbe Philippines there would have been a protest frois Maine to Califomia; Itwas au e - meigency, and we had to act oit tbe moment, leaving to the future the fiual solution of the new pro­ blem. l!ixt it soon developeil, after h-jv- i' ? •,< qnired from Spain the Phil- i^niaes, that we must reckon also y, large insurgent element, ''‘Lt viere unwilling to be taken ^'ivVv i>y the United States, aud who i!»ho\ved Oiat they were determined j to fi,3ht ta !i8 earnestly lui they had fought Spain. There was but one or two courses open to us. The Igreatmajoiity ofthe ^ilipinoti were willing to trust the Uulted Slates, and they looked to us to festore or­ der us the first step in the direction of a stable government for the Is­ lands. The President had either to call off his troops and leave tiie initargents in possession of the field or else to fotce the insurgents to lay down their arms. The Presi­ dent could not bnt clioosc the lat­ ter alternative. We say that this is nd question of politics. Mr. McKinley was el­ ected by the.Eepublicans, but he is the President of this nation. He had a distinct duty to perform. He could not dicker with Aguinal- do BO long as he was showing fight; He could not but protect • the law abiding citizens of the islands from the ra^'ages of the insurgents, and had be called off his troops and left the people of those islands to fight it out among themselves the American flag would have been dii'graced and we would have' been a repro-ach among the nations of tbe earth. , AVe believe that Mr. McKinley has pursued the right course, the only couise open to bim-.the course that any Democratic president would have pursued under the same circumstances and we have no sympathy with those who are now denouncing him for political effect Much less do we sympavhize will George S. Boutwell and associates who are now so ze alous 01 the right;, of the Philippine “rebels,” where we reeall that this same Mr. Bout' well was a member, soon after tho war between the States, of the •‘joint committee on reconstructiou and the arch enemy of Southern rights.—^Eicbmond Times, Lem.

The foil jwiug report by the executive committee shows settlement to have teen made with the sharelwld- ers, it having been decided to close the factoiT:“We fiiid that the State l)u5inefs agent lias in hand $2,158.60 worth of shoes, the product of the Shoe factory^ and that there was ojntributed to a special shoe factory fund, under reso­ lutions of the State Alliancj in 189», the sum of ?3.T97.50, the contrib'itors of which were to share in the profits of the shoe factory. We recommend that inasmuch as the business has re­ sulted in leas and n ;t in gain, and the Alliance has sustained the loss, that the State business agent be instructe! to offer to refudud at once to the indi­ vidual contributors ot this fund ,the sum of ntty .per cent, of their cintribii- tions, the same to he paid out of tbe £hocs now in his bands.” The report of the executive commit­ tee also made the following recom­ mendation:“We recommend that the State busi­ ness agent be instructed to tender, tree of rent, to the State Board of Agricul­ ture, not to exceed twenty-five acres of the Alliance farm, to establish an ex­ perimental f*-m; and we recommend that a farmers’ congress be held at Al­ liance headquarters one day du lig the S:a;e Alliance meeting, siid con­ gress to be composed of ailiancemen and non-alliancemen, and tbe details of said cjncgrss to be arranged by tho executive committee of ttS State Alli- auce and the Board ot AgricuUure. rFinancially the order is said to b? prospering, the biuines.s of the Alli­ ance agency during the past year hav- tag exceeded by several thousand dol­ lars that of the year next precceding. I President George T. Winston, cf the A. & M. CDliege, wes tendered a vote ot thanks for the excellent addre s he delivered before the Alliance Wednes- nay. ; A ri.?ing vote of thanks was al=o giv- 6i> the Progressive Farmer tor the to ’.d non-partisan stand it has taken d;u'- ing the past year, and for the ability which has characterized its manage­ment. The Alliance pledged its sup­ port to the paper. A Ftrong stand for education was taken in the following re'ol'ifions: “Whereas, The North Carolina Far­ m ers'State Ailiancs has, been, from the time ot its foundation, the earnest friend ot education; and whereas, there is now imperative neceraity far great­er scbQol advantages within the bor­ ders ot North Carolina than ever be­ fore; now, be it ■‘JRcsoIved.

To prohibit the employment of children of immature age in manu­ facturing industries. ■^tb. To establish reformatories toi young criminals.” . Resolutions pledging support to tb; A. & M. College were adapted. A com­ mittee of three consisting of MaJ. ■ W. A . Graham. John Graham and T. B. P v k er were appointed to confer with the college authorities. The rcsolu- . tions are as follows: ] “Whereas, One of the tenets of the State Farmers’ Ailiancc is the educa­ tion of the youth of the State; and, whereas, we are especially interested in the agricultural and mechanical ed­ ucation of the boys of the S;ate; there*, fore “Resolved, That this body elect a committee of, three to^be kn'ClWn as th« educational comniitit^ of the Farmers’ State Alliance,j {o confer with the Board of T rie'era ot.the A. & M.

ADOFriNG GOLD BASIS, GENERAL MOVEMENT 01^ NATIONS FOR THE SINGLE STANDARD, liOMin, Japan *nil India, With Th»l» Popnlatlon of 405,000,000 Fallen Into U n e Since tlio Cam paign ot 1890—Tlio Prodootlon of Gold. The currency-question was so thor­ oughly discussed in 1896, and the as­ sertions of the adherents of sUver as a standard money metal have been so thoroughly disprovcn by the events since that date, that ft detniled discus­ sion of tbe question s'eems now iin-, necessary. It is not improper, how­ ever, to call attention to some great facts which account in some degree, .It least, for tiie course ot the great nations in one by one abandoning the double, fiuctuating standard and adopting tbe single and now almost universal standard—gold. The general movement among nations for the adop­ tion ot the single gold standard began about 1870 (except in the ease of Eng­ land, which took this action in 1801), and since that time all tbe nations ot tbe world, e.xceptlng Mexico, China, Korea, Siam, Persia, and some of the smaller republics ot Central and Soutb. America, have adopted the single gold standard. Recent statements indicate that China is pushing for the introdnc- tion of the gold standard in her cus­ toms service. This, it accompllslied, v/ill doubtless be the Initial step to­ ward similar action with i-eference to tbe currency of that country. Con­ sular statements recently publislicd indicate that Siam Is preparing to^ rdopt the single gold standard. Even! iu the short four years since the cam­ paign ot 1S0« the gold standard has. been adopted in Japan, with a popula-. tion of 40.000,000; Russia, with a pop­ ulation of 133,000,000; India, with .- population of 300,000,000, and sevci-al of tbe Central aud South American republics. In the three hundred and fifty-seven years prior to 1S50 the gold production ct^be world averaged less than ?10,-i 000,000 Iier annum: in the fifty yeai-s' since 1850 the gold production of Ibf^ world has averaged $183,000,000 per annum, ,nnd in the year 1880 was $310,- 000,000. In tbe tour closing years ot the nineteenth centuiT the gold pro­ duction will be greater than that ot the entire first half of the contury. Ill. the single year 1899 the gold produc­ tion was as great as that ot the first thirty-three years of tbe century. This enormous increase iu the pro­ duction ot gold as compared w'itli that of previous centuries began with the discovery of gold iu California In 1817. toilowcd' by similar discoverie;! in Australia iu 1853, theu by later dis- toveric.s in Colorado a few years latci’, then by the enormous discoveries iE South Africa, which have proved the greatest gold-producing mines eves known, aud within the pjist thri^ years the great discoveries iu Alaska; All tiiese have lieen supplemented, amf their result^^ multiplied meanwhile, by the development of new means ot ex­ traction, through whicb mines form­ erly abandoned as worthless again l)e- caiue valu;ibie. These discoveries and developments account for the fact that file sold production of tbe world in tlie i.ast lifty years has been more than twice as great as tlmt ot tbe pre- ceediug three hundred and fifty year.?. .^s a cousequencc, the gold in c\ist- euce to-day, acceiiting thp statistics ot such eminent statisticians as Tooke, Newmarcli and Jfulliali; and adding to tlie.se tbe later statements ot the Di­ rector of the Mini, Is more than three times as great as iu 1830. During tliat time the population lias increased lifty iwr cent., being, according to equally nuiuciit statisticians, 1,075,000,000 ill 3S50 and I.DOIMHJO.OOO at the iiresent time. This would give twice as much l old for each pei’sou to-day as in 1.S.10, In addition to this, however, Mulhall s hows that two-tiiirds ;of the gold of the world to-day is coined and used as money, while in 1850 only one-tiiird of the gold was coined, ’This again' doubles the amount of gold money,' making, therefore, more than four' times as much gold cuiTcncy tor each individual iu the -world to-day as in 1830. Ot the world's silver, according to tlitfsamc authority (.Mulballl, forty per cent, was coined in 1850 and titty-three per cent in IS'JtX Gold, tmlike most commodities pro­ duced, is for tbe most part retained permanently—not eaten, or worn out, or destroyed—and each year’s addi- tiou from the mines thus increases tlie world’s permanent stock of tbe money metal, exc-eptiug the Small pro­ portion whlcii is used in the arts whieli averages, perhaps, fifteen to twenty per cent, of the world’s prod­ uct. Keeping this in mind, it will lie; seen that the result ot the last half century of gold prodiiction in the total ,imouut mined-is more thau twice as great as that iu three hundred ami fifty years preceding, has enormouslv increased Ihe world’s permanent stock' of th is,accepted money metal, and Mcms ot itself to offer nu important If not a complete, explanation of ||m fact tlmt during that half century in' which Ihe product has so greatly in creased, practically all the nations of the world have abandoned the douliie stnndnrd aud adopted this rapidly in ' creasing and generally accepted mea^' ure of value.

Tbe statement is ns follows: “Tlie consilmiition ot foreign prod-; nets bv these islafids is made up al­ most equ.illy of articles ot manufaet- nre and of agriculture ot the temper-! nfe zone. Out of $20,123.,121 worth ofi products exported from the Tlnited States to Cuba iu 1891, the value of S9 4-l('.9'>-‘> Pfoil'icts of agriqul- ini'e. Out ot $18,010,377 worth of ex­ ports for tbe year 1800, $9,799,513. worth belonged to the same categoiy. The exports from the United States to the ‘Pearl of Antilles’ are made up principally of cere.als, live animals, salt meat, cotton goods, machinery, footwear,, in.struments. etc. “Spain, under normal conditious.sold aniiuaily to Cuba. Porto Rico and tlie Pliilipplnes. about $40,000,000 worth ot goods, principally manufactured arti­ cles. besides w ines, oils, flour j„ea*« and vegetables. Out of 135,000,-^ (H)0 pesetas’ worth of merchandise' sbipiied from Spain to Cuba in 1890,, about ."0.000,000 represented tbe value of products of agriculture. The pro­ portion was nearly the same in the, case ot Porto Rico and the Philippine' Islands. Speaking generally, we may assume that under normal conditions the sur­ plus prodnction of Cuba and the Phil­ ippines befoi^ the war amounted to, about $125,000,000 anniiall.v, and tbein consumption to $100,000,000, but thatj their productive power is capable of gieat increase, which in tiirU will cause a similar increase in eonsunip- tion. About one-half ot tbe imports, into these islands was of SpanisK, origin and the other halt came froin^ other countries proportionate to fiieir proximity or distance. Thus ihe United, States fnrnished the greater part of the imports into Cuba nnd Porto Rico, while the Philippine Isl­ ands received wiiatever Spain was un- aiile to turnisli them ivith .from Hong­ kong, Sliangbai, Yokohama, Calcutta and Australian ports.” £x1)orta o f C o tton.

A-dose is one teaspoopful three tim w a for three days, ttfe^iuisg one day, and repeat the dose until the hog Is cured. Give shotes or pigs one-half the amount as a preventive.

'4^e core worm is the oftspring ot the codUn nioih. and this is the insect -which a man wants to fl.cht in his apple trees. The best general remedy for the core worm or codling moth, according to iil- formatlou fBruished by the Vermont exijeriinent station, is parls green. Some apple growers use lX)ndon pnr- ple. others use white arsenic, but they amount to tbs same thing. They all imlsou the core worms. Oth& insecti­ cides. like lielletore. kerosene or sul­ phur. arc uot effectlte in this cusc. In th'j hands of the average' man paiis green is the best meiliciue for the codling moth. The poison should be thoroughly mixed with water at the rate'.of a.qujarter of .a pound to the bar-- rel^tiiat _ts. iibout one pound ot parls giceu to I(iO to 200’ gallons of -water.'

In case liordeaux mixture is psed on the tree the parls green may be added directly to that solution at the rate al­ ready recommended. The first spraying tor the tbdling moth should be made as soon M-'tlie blossoms fall, or within a weeji attei^ ward.

In the first place we are -told that the people of Maryland have expend­ ed, during the last t ^ years, npon the so-called consti'uction and repair of their own roads, the sum of no less than ?G,000,(KM). It seems that thJ gi'eater, iJart of this mon^y has beeu, frittered aw^y In the attempt to re^ pair roads which have been poorlm laid out to the first place, aud for-the lack of certain necessary engineering) quaiificatlonsi -canj in the nature of things, never be made Into good roads. -As -an instance of this it may be men­ tioned that many of the common roads have no natural drainage. 'We are told that the most of them are ih a poor condition for a part of the year, aud some of them for the whole twelve months. -\s the result of a careful estimate made by the surA-ey, It Is shown that the farmers of the State of Maryland expend $3,000,000 more on their haul­ ing over the present poorly built high-, Avays than AA’o u ld he necessary if the hauling AA'ere done ou first-class roads. These figures arc to be compared Avith the information collected by the l)e. partmeut of Agriculture in 1895, when, as the -result of data received from over tAvelA-e hundred counties in ja ri- ous parts of the United State, ft AA-as ascei-Jained that tie average cost of hauling qfle ton for one mile over country roads' was tWenty-fiA'c cents; which was just three tiines aS'mucI* as the average eost of hauling over the^ improved m acadap rodds of six.

' At'first sight it seems incredible that iu a country so progressive as ours IJie. conditioii of the common roads should be OA'er half a century behind that, ot the old world. It is true that the vast extent of the United States, and the great mileage of our roads in some States relative to the density ‘6^’ tile population, may be -ottered as an'- excuse for backwardness: liut white this plea may hold good as regards the thinly popuiiited .

Ko poticular party, but all, were responsible tor the war with Spain, and all are, therefore, reoponsible for the complications growing out of it. As for thetalk of the con. versation of this government from a republic to an empire, and the consequent destrnction of our free institutions—it is rot.—Charlotte Observer. <MuItnm in parvo”. The above short squib from Bro. Caldwells pen puts tde question of the war, and imperistlism forcibly and Wm' •rstly where it belongs, nothing truer, than “its all rot” The peo pie demanded this war after the blowing up of the Main®, and the administration w^as criticised and abused by the most of these imper­ ialists squeakers because the presi­ dent was so conversative. We were unprepared as it was, and our soldiers suffered many hardships as the result, and this ’brought on more criticism.

Tw o Little Gmnd-Dauglitere of Sen­ ator Vance Unveiled Statue Which is a W ork of A rt and an Excellent Ukeness»Trem endous Crowd Pres­ ent. Haleigh. Special.—The superb broaze statue of Vance was unveiled on Wed­ nesday. and was greeted by the enthu­ siastic chcers of a vast crowd. Mr. K. H. Battle, Governor Vance s private secretary, nrade the formal ora­ tion, which covered the whole life and career of the great commoner. Dr. Eu­ gene Daniels offered the prayer. Col. Thomas S. Kenan was chief marshal and Introduced the speaker. The two little granddaushters of Senator Vance unveiled the figure. The statue is a splendid work of art. as well as a fine likeness. The statue stands in the C pitol square, midway between the east front of that building and the boundary cf the sauare, while the noble mtmorial erected by the State to its Confederate dead, -‘First at Bethel, La;t at Appo­ mattox.” stands at the western f ont The movement to erect a monument to the Senator took shape Eoon after his death, and was begun as a populir one. In this way about f2,500 was raised. The Legislature of 1899 cime to the aid of the movement by appro­ priating J5.000, and with the »7,500 it was decided to secure a statue. The e was a lively competition by artists last sjmmer, no less than 12 competing, b it Henry J. Ellicott, of Washington, w s the winner. Mrs. Vance, the widow, admired his model, which was a s'.udy from the best photograph, and made frequent visits to Elliro fs Et'dio. £he also followed closely the work on the full-sized clay model. This plea cl her, as it also did the two committees, o:ie appointed by the Legislature, the ether by the citizens who h al made contri­ butions. The statue is 8 1-2 feet in height and stands upon a bas3 of granite from Mt. Airy, Ga., the base being of equal height It was cast ty the Gorham Company, at Providence, H. I., and when two msmbers of the committee went there to insprct it in June one of them exclaimed as they first viewed it: “There’s Vance!” This exclamation was made by Ricba’-d H. Battle, who during the moit trying period of the Civil war was Vance’s private secre­ tary, and who for nearly forty years was one of hia moat intimate friends. When the Etalue was put In position last month the few who saw it made the same remark. Vance’s personality was very striking. The likeness of the face and head Is the feature of the work. One the base la the one word "Vance" In bold letters. That one word Is enough. In bold relief it stands out, typical of tBe man who in war or in peace was always for his beloved Nor>h Carolina and North Carolinians. The head is llon-llke, yet kindly in expres­ sion. The artist has happily cxught the bearing of the man and his true nianline-8 of face, form and pose. Solving the Negro ProUem . Detroit, Mich., Special.—The State Federation of Colored Women has adopted a memorial to President Mc­ Kinley, petitioning him to ask Con­ gress to pay the wadow of the late Postmaster Baker, of Lake City, S. C.. t40,000 in lieu of the life of her hus­ band, which was lost during a race riot in that country.

Akron, Ohio (Special).—An angry mob baffled in its attem pt.to lynch a negro, began a pitched battle with the Mayor and other city officials. A baby and a ten-year-old boy were killed and many unknown men shot. J. M. Davidson was iu an open carriage in the main street of Akron with his wife and baby. The child was asleep in its mother’s arms. A shot from a iioliceman’s revolver in­ stantly killed the child. Another man was also shot, and will die.The dead arc: Glen Wade, aged ten, shot through the heart; John M. Dav­ idson’s four-year-old child, shot dead in a baby carriage.Mayor W. E. Young and other city officials, after being hooted and stoned by the mob, took refuge in the inner rooms of the city bniiding.A negro named Lonls Peek made an attempt to assault Christina, a six- year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tiie- odore Maas, white people of this cit.v. The negro was arrested at one o’clock next morning and locked up in the city prison. At 7.30 o’clock p. m. a mob of several tliousand iiersons gath­ ered about the prison yeliiug for the life of Peck. They forc-ed their way into tile city prison and searched all the cells. The oliiccrs offered no re­ sistance as the negro hart been re­ moved in the early part of the even­ ing. The mol» tlieu rushed for Iho countv jail and forced open the outer doors'of the building. The Jail was soon packed with tlie howling mem­ bers of the mob who insisted that Peek was there.Deputy Sheriff Stone addrcsscil the mob, sayiug that Peck was not there. ■V committee was appointed by the mob and was permitted to search the jail from lop to iMttom. The mob then rushed across the street and forced open the dooi-s of the CJourt House and searched that bniiding. Peck was not there anu another rush was made for the city prison, which was again soon packed. Tile officers made no resistance and .Mayor Young appeared at a window in the upper part of the building and attempted to address the cro,wd. He told the people that Peck and another negro named “Bug” Howard, who w.is arrested two weeks ago for shooting a white man, were removed from the city by Sheriff Kelly. At 4 o’clock he took the two colored prisoners to Cleveland for safe keeping.The mob attacked the city building for the third time soon after 10 o’clock. People in the crowd oi)ened fire on the building and it was returned by the iwlice officers lu the building. One boy was shot dead and several people wounded.. Shortly after midnight the mob broke into a hardware store and stole all the firearms and ammunition they could find, including guns, rifles and revolvers, and proceeded to the city building and opened fire oi^ the defenders, and finally set fire to the Columbia Hall, which adjoins the city building. (k>lumbhi Hall was burned to the ground and the city building was sot on flre. The Fire Department was .called ont, but was unable to do much work. One fireman was shot and the rioters cut the hose at every oppor­ tunity. The trolley wires and some of the electric light and telephone wires in the centre of the city were cut The Mayor telegraphed to the Cleve­land Police Department for forty po­licemen. The office of the Morning Journal Beacon, opposite the city building, was partly demolished by stones and bul­lets. Dynamite was used in front of the city building. The first charge smashed all the windows iu tile building and did much other damage. All prisoners were released from the city prison. Alonzo Manchester, a fire­ man,, has been shot in the neck. John Horn was shot in tlie arm. The Governor was requested to call ont the National Guard to suppress the riot. DYNAMITE IN A TURNPIKE WAR.

(Special).—A mob of twenty-flve men visited the north toll gate of the Burlington pike and blew it up with dynamite. The charge was placed in the middle room of the house, and the force of the explosion drove the walls outward and the root high Into the air. The outrage was carefully planned. . No toll had been coUected for three days, and both toll gate keepers had been removed iu compliance with whitecap notices. The owners of the pike declare that the county has refrained from buying because the citizens protest against opening a highway, which will attract trade to Logansport. The road is as­sessed at JIOOO a mile, but the county offers the company only $212. D. C.

(Speclal).-Of the -52,000 enumeration districts in the Cnited States the Census Office has '.'ounted. in round numbers. 17.000, and linds tbeir population to be 25,000,000. i'hls would mean, on the law of aver­ ages, a total of about 77,000,000. But this will not be reached. It seems to be a Census Office rule that the gen- ii-al average of these enumeration dis­ tricts tends to fall as the count pro­ ceeds, slightly, to be sure, but enough lo modify results in the grand total. When 13,000 enumeration districts had been countcd they gave a population which, if multiplied by four, would put tbe country’s total at 78,000,000, which was the figure that enthusiastic estimators had long since set upon tor the census of 1900. The count has now proceeded far enough to make this figure o it of the question, and also to make reasonably certain that the total will be not more than 75,- DOO.OOO, although it will not faU very far below that figure. The rea­ son it may fall below at all, is that the Census Office, in cutting out the dis­ tricts, intends to give those enumera­ tors who have to walk over a good deal of territory a little less work to do. On the frontiers and in the very remote places this influence operates most strongly, and, as a rule, the re­turns from such piares are among the last to be tabulated. Therefore, it may be put down as a settled fact that the population of the United States will not be more than 75,000,000. This Is the inside opinion of the Censas Office managers, b u t being conjectur­ al, has, of course, found no place In any official bulletin.Figures have been carried far enough also to show that about 33 per cent, of the population of the United States ivill be found living in cities or towns of 8000 persons or . above. This Is a very significant fact. In 1890 It w ai 29 per cent. In 1790 It was 3 per cent.

Twn-thlrds of th« W o rld ’s Sugmr Soppll N o w Com o* From Beat In cs r Orow l»» Count rtes-Tho Porto B l n a TMlH- Oar Islaad Markets—The OnUook. Simultaneously with the develop- inent of the withdrawal of slave labor from the production of cane-sugar, beets increased their percentage of the world’s supply from 4.35 In 1840 t ^ 4 per cent, in 1850; 20 per cent, in 18(j0; 34 per cent, in 1870, and they now pro­ duce 60 per cent., or two-thirds of the world’s sugar. This fact shows that the farmers of the temperate zone need no longer fear the competition of the tropics In the production of sugar, anil especially if a reasonable protection is granted them, as is the case in the United States. The farmers of this country have been encouraged by the Kepublican party in their ambltioB to produce the sugnr of the country. The experience of other nations and of other parts of the temperate zone has shown that sugar can be protluccd from beets in great quantities, and at a very small cost, and can successfully compete with cane sugar under the most favorable circumstances. Under the stimulus given to the beet sugar production by Republican legislation, beet-sugar factories sprang up all over the United States, and the production of beet sugar has already reached large proportions and is increasing with wonderful rapidity. The first thought that come to the minds of the farmers when the events following the w ar for the liberation of Cuba lirought under our control cer­ tain tropical areas was whether or not the possession or control of tropical territory by the United States would injure, or perhaps destroy, the oppor­ tunities which they believed were al­ most within their grasp for supplying the ?100,U00,000 worth of sugar which the people of the United States annu- aUy consumed. This fear—if it ever reached the stace in which it could bo called by that name—was answered in' the negative by the Republican party, when It passed the Porto Ricau bill. The Democratic party fought with all its power to prevent the enactment of that measure which placed a duty upon articles coming Into the United States from Porto Rico. That duty was smaU, but it was an expUcit dec­ laration by the Kepublican party that It would not yield the powc- to flx such taritr, as u might deem judicious, against the products of cheap tropical labor wherever located and under whatever conditions. In other words, it Was a distinct promise to the Ameri­ can farm er that he need not fear that the Kepublican party would permit the cheap labor and cheap sugar of any tropical territory to be brought here in a manner which would destroy the American industry of beet sugar pro­ duction which the farmers of the Uni­ ted States have, under protection given by the Republican party, been building op during the last few years. The farmers of the temperate zone can produce beet sugar successfully in competition with the sugar cane of the tropics when both are handled by free labor, aud this advantage which the Amerlcin farm er has wiU be strength­ ened In the United States so long as the Republican party retains its con­ trol and is able to apply the protective principle 'o the interests of its farm­ ers as it did in the case of the Porto Bi­ can bill, against which the Democrats turned their every energy. W ith a few years of . loderate protection against the cheap labor of the tropics, the beet sugar industry Ui the United States will be placed fairly and squarely upon its feet. Meantime the improved con- rtition of labor in the tropics, and the opportunities for higher wages which the guidance of the United States will give them, will more nearly equali^ the cost of the two syst- us of produc­ tion. One further fact in regard to the world’s production and producing ca­ pacity is iVorthy of consideration in this connection, and that is that nearly two-thirds of the sugar now imimrted Into the United States comes from the Islands of the Pacific. The total impor­ tation of sugar into the United States In the ten months ending with AprU, 1899, amounted to 3,303,020,763 pounds, and of this amouutl,l80,442,362pounds were from the Elast Indies, the Ha- trallan Islands and the Philippine Isl­ ands, thus indicating the possibilities of our Pacific, territory to supply that portion of our consumption which It will lie necessary to import until the farmers of this country are able to ^upply the home demand. Instead of sending to other countries and other peoples the 1190,000,000 per year which we have been annually expending for foreign-grown sugar, it may be expend­ ed under the American flag and In a cnanner vhlch will benefit the people In onr Islands, and Incidentally those )f our own people who may eiiter upon business enterprises in them.

How to Market Gooseberries. Gooseberries may be marketed eith­ er green or ripe. Some growers pick the smaller fruits green and allow the finest fruits to ripen. This is less e.’C- hausting for the bushes than it is to allow the whole crop to ripen. Others market the entire crop green, a meth: od least exhausting to the bushes, and it also has this In its favor that the sooner the crop Is in the market the less .risk tliere is of its injury by sun scald, mildew or other fungous or in­ sect trouble. Each grower must de­ termine for himself according to his local market conditions what method of handling the fruit is best for him. Green gooseberries are stripped from the branches quite rapidly. They may then be run through the fanning mill if necessary to free them from leaves, sticks, etc., and then packed for mar­ ket. The style of package will ue usually determined by the market dc!- mand.

Stumbling Is often the fault ot bad shoeing, and for that the owner, of course, is to blame, and not the aidmai. Shying is a relic of the wild state of the horse, and one that receives a lash from the whip when he swerves aside suddenly from some imagined danger or strange object will be only the more timid, nervous and excititble when he again encounters an object that creates sudden alarm. <3niM F o r ?ls« *.

The small stomach would seem to indicate a grain ration, or con­ centrated food of some sort, aud so it does. Hogs are wanted to consume a lar,i^ amoimt of food, converting it into pork; therefore, the first thing re- ■lulred Is to enlarge his capacity to eat; or. In other words, to enlarge his stomach. Grass being bulky in pro­ portion to its nutritious qualities is the very thing and involves the only known method of enlarging the stom­ ach. At the same time, it furnishes the protein needed to develop flesh, muscle and bone. Then when wc have a large frame built up with enlarge<l digestive capacity It is au easy matter to put on the fat with corn or other carbohydrate foods. tlons can be made in less time than it tak«s to tell how to do it, and by means of them a very useful judgment can be passed upon the com. The rel atlvely small amount of seed required for com planting makes it feasible to give specbil attention to selection of the seed. At the same time attention should be given to the various factors that combine to produce a large yield. A variety satisfactory in' these re­ spects should be chosen as tbe basis upon whiQh to develop ian improve­ ment in the percentage of proteids.— American Agriculturist Notes.

An Indiana subscriber writes that he Wishes to put quite a steep hillside with southern exposure into grapes, but is afraid that when plowed It will wash and destroy his vines. He asks advice. Our correspondent's descrip­ tion of this hillside leads us to con­ clude that he has an ideal site for a vineyard. If the hillside is too steep to permit of drainage as a remedy for washing, do not break np tbe sod at all, except where the vines are to be planted. W here each vine Is to be, dig np about a yard square of grouud, and during the summer keep the grass cut short The first year stake; the sec­ ond, place the permanent support. This Inquiry suggests the fact that there is a great deal of hill land in In­ diana, and in almost every State, that might profitably be phinted to grapes. This fruit is easily grown, and ought to be grown on every farm at least in sufficient quantities to furnish a sup­ ply for the family. To grow grapes to perfection they need attention, but one can plant the Concord grape, and if It Is utterly neglected afterward, it will produce fm lt There is no fruit grown upon the farm that is more deli­ cious or healthful than the grape. Its culture deserves wider attention.—The Epitomlst. G u in e a F o irlc . If farm ers would devote more atten­ tion to Guinea fowls and become fa­ miliar with their many good qualities, we would find them among almost every flock of poultry. Guinea fowls cannot, of course, sup­ plant or even rival chickens, but they at least deserve a place In the poultry world. There is no more delicious or palata­ ble dish than a yonng Guinea fowl. When TrAusplsntlBK Treei* The more earth that can l>e left clinging to the roots of a tree that is to be transplanted, the more certain is the tree to live. It is wise, then, to dig about tbe tree so as to leave a bunch of earth about the small roots, follow ing out and gently freeing the long roots as they are met in cutting a cir­ cle about the trunk. Then the tree must be lifted bodily, if possible. There are several ways to apply power for this purpose, one of the best being shown in the c u t A tripod is rigged Yonr Feel .4.chc and B nrn 1 Into your hboos AllenS Foot-Ease, jpotj^r for ibe fe-il.

You will never find our Doc­ tor out. He is here to give advice without charge to those who need him—to those who don’t, sometimes. He doesn’t always recommend the Ayer medicines, because the Ayer medicines are not “ cure-alls.' Perhaps if we tear a leaf from his correspondence it will show you what we mean. Here is a letter which came last March. Dear Dr. Ayer: I want your advice for my little boy. He is getting very thin. He has no appe­ tite. He is fifteen years old. 'When be was four years old he had lung fever, but his health was good until two years ago. Since then he is laiiliitg fast. The doctors here say he has the bronchitis. He spits all the time awful bad. The spits are big, thick, and white. Yours truly, M rs. M a r g a r e t M u r p h y , M arch 30, 1900. K in b rae, M in n .” And this is the way the Doc­ tor answered Mrs. Murphy: “ D e a r M a d a m; ’“ We enclose our book on The Throat and Lungs, in which we trust you will find just the information you desire. “ You should begin at once the use of this Cherry Pectoi^ for yonr son, giving it in moderate doses. Then procure some good preparation of cod-liver oU, Scott's Emulsion, and give him that, as well. Fay particular attention to his diet, giving him such nourishing foods as rare steak, lamb chops, good milk, eggs, etc. Above all, keep him out of doors ^1 that the weather permits. There is nothing that will do him more good than plenty of fresh air. Let him live out of doors all that is possible. By carrying out these general suggestions vrc shall hope to hear soon that your son is improving in every way. Very truly yours,April 5,1900. J. C. Ayer.” You see, it wasn't only the Ayer medicines that we recom- mended. The first idea of the Doctor was to cure that boy. The result is told in this letter: D e a r D r. A y e r :“ My little boy has improved so much since I received your advice that I want to write and tell you how thankful I am. “ When I first wrote you, on March racKS* rjBVEBS^l.

But, more than either, it was the good, sound advice the Doctor gave in the first place. We ar? here to serve you in just the same way, and we will tell you the medi­ cine for your case or tell you what medicines to avoid. Five out of ten of our cor­ respondents need a doctor rather than a prepared medi­ cine, and we tell them so. If the doctors only knew it, we are working with them every day.J. C. A yer. C o m pa n y Pncdcal Cheoiists, Lowell, Mass. Perional Appearance of A{;u2n«lde*s Wif» . The few Americans who have called upon ber in Calle San Jose have found a good-looking Filipino woman of flbaut thirty years, clad io tbe grace­ ful dress of the islanders, and re^m-" bling thousands of her less p ro n A i^ sisters, says Harper’s Bazar. She It better looking from tbe Filipino stand* point than from ours; she Is plump, pleasant-faced, and, to ber country folk, distinctively attractive. *Sbe will not talk Spanish with a foreigner; it Is said that she can speak tbis langaage. but does not care to do so. To hold converse wltb her it is necessary to eo* ’ list the services of a Tagalog inter­ preter. To-day “la Senora Presldente” has- the appearance of a woman who has suffered, nor Is tbe term of her unhap­ piness yet past. Her eyes, with their expression of sadnes and (V'jection, show her distress of mind. For this there is due cause. Her husband is probably a fugitive, hiding in the mountains, and every day lessens bis chances of ultimate pardon at oup hands if we capture him. He may be dead; if he still lives he Is in danger every minute of the day, wherever he may be. I do not believe Mrs Agui" naldo herself knows where he is, nor that she has heard from him since sbe came to Manila. She is fully aware of the dangers which surrounded him In the Igorrote country when she left him last Christmas, because it was the unmistakable hostility of these same Igorrotos that decided her to seek tbe protection of our lines. She lost her infant dniifjhter last November, and later her three-year-old son died in Bacoor. Qrove’s Tonic 'broke up a lo days’ spell of fever which a physician tliought would last several weeks. “ During my recent illness your Chill Tonic proved ol beneficial effect—it being highly endorsed by my family phy­ sician, 3 bottles broke up a 10 days’ spell of fever which at first was thought by the doctor would last for several weeks. Your excellent remedy is having a tremendous sale through­ out this; section, more so than all other Chill Tonics combined, as I am informed by various druggists.” Yours truly, A.
