vorable, but In the south Atlantic and
portions of the east gulf states exces
sively heavy rajns have caused much
damage.
On the Pacific coast the conditions
have been favorable. Corn has made
rapid progress toward maturity under
the abnormal temperature conditions,
a large part of the crop in states
where It Is usually rexposed to danger
from frosts being safe, and the remain
der will mature .earlier than usual.
Late corn has been seriously Injured
by hot Winds Jn South Dakota. Nebras
ka, Kansas and Missouri, while heavy
rains have caused rotting and sprout
ing in the south Atlantic and east
gulf states.

rust, shedding and Insects over the
eastern portion of the cotton belt from
which sections numerous reports of
rotting and sprouting are also re
ceived, especially in Georgia and the

exceptionally heavy. In Louisiana, and
Texas reports of shedding and damage
by insects are less numerous than In

promising.
"The soil conditions over the central
and northern districts of the country
east of tho Mississippi river have con
tinued favorable for plowing, but In
Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska, It has
been too dry for this work."

by the officials that it will become seri
ous in character.

EDITORS IN SESSION.
TRAITORS TO THE CAUSE.
There Is a Rucua In the Ranks of
Colorado's Silver Republicans.
Denver, Sept. 6.—Late this afternoon
Chairman Towne of. the Silver Repub
lican national committee removed
Richard Broad from the position of
chairman of the Silver Republican cen
tral committee of Colorado, and W.
R. Freeman from tho position of sec
retary of the same committee on tho
ground of disloyalty to the Silver Re
publican party and tho cause it stands
for.
Chafhman Town© appointed James
II. Blood of Denver as chairman of
the committeo and W. H. Griffith as
secretary. This action was token by
Chairman Towne on representations In
writing by Senator Teller, Congress
man Shafroth and National Commit
teeman Stevenson to the effect that
fraudulent contests have been Insti
tuted on a sufficient number of coun
ties so that one-half of the state con
vention, to bo held at Colorado Springs
on Thursday next, will be made up of
contested delegates and that Chairman
Broad and Secretary Freeman have
joined In a conspiracy to give the Mc-
K i nicy Republicans or fOllOWOni Of
Senator Wolcott control of tho con
vention and enable them to defeat the
proposed fusion with Democrats and
Populists in tho coming campaign.
The effect of ChQJrman £owne]g ac
tion 'will be to .put friends -oft Senator
Teller lu consol of the cc nvcntlon.
Chairman D.oad nnd Secretary Free
man dispute the right of Chairman
Towno to lemovo them and declare
they will disregard his action.

FOUR ABLE LIARS.
From the Chicago Tribune.
"You may not believe it, gentle
men," said one of tho group who, hav
ing dined at a free lunch counter,
were smoking their cigars Jn front of
d hotel. "You may not believe it, but
I lmvo used a fountain-pen constantly
for four years and have never had tho
least trouble with it."
"That's remarkable," said another.
"Still, I am the father of six children,
and never had to walk tho 'floor with
a single one of them."
Thero was a silence of a -minute or
two, and another spoke up.
"I don’t doubt It," ho said, "for I can
testify to something stranger still. I
have a bright little 4-year-old boy at
my house, and I never told any of his
smart sayings to any of my friends."
"Gentlemen,” remarked a fourth,
after a nalnful pause, "I am fond of
hearing young women practice their
scales on the piano after I have retired
to rest. It lulls mo to sleep."
One or two other persons In the
group made feeble attempts to Hay
something, but gave It up. It seemed
to be felt that this reached the limit.
An honest
man in this
day and age
has little
need to fear
death by
hanging.
The danger
that inno-
! cent men
will die upon
the scaffold
has been re*
duced by
modem laws
of evidence
■ to a minimum.
There is one
appalling death that still threatens inno
cent men. It is a slow and lingering death
from consumption*. One-sixth of the hu
man mce die from this relentless enemy of
humanity. Probably no subject connected
with health is ao important and so little
understood as the conservation of vital
force. The human organism is a wonderful
machine, and is so cons*.acted that if ex
haustive draughts arc made upon the vital
forces during youth and middle life, the
mechanism responds for the time, but at the
expense of its niture usefulness. The man
who overworks or exhausts himself day
otter day is constantly overdrawing his
store of vital force. Finally the mechan
ism of supply breaks down and the man
becomes a physical bankrupt. The me
chanism of supply in a man is his stomach.
There the food is transformed Into vital
force. If the stomach is weak and the di
gestion impaired, the body ceases to re
ceive and store up vital force. If the
draught is continued, consumption or some
other-equally fatal disease is the result.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is a
great producer of vital force. It enables a
man to daily store up energy to do almost
any amount of work or stand any amount
of exposure. It does its work through the
stomach. It makes the weak stomach
strong. It facilitates and increases the
of digestive juices. It promotes and
perfects the assimilation of all the life-
giving elements of the food. It is the
great blood-maker and flesh-builder.
Mr. F. M. Uohtueu. of Xenophon, Tenn.,
writ**; "lean hcaiilly recommend Dr. Pierce's
sissB
. oil »»n '-{into Improve. If it hid oat broil
for IH. tttrro’b CjlJcn Medical Discover, I be-
licre I would not be tiring today."
