AHERDER's TERRIBLE DEATH.

HELENA, Mont, Sept. A party inst
in from Choteau City gives the particulars
of the terrible death of sheep herder
named Smith. The man was herding
quite distance from any habitation. and
on the day OF the accident was visited
by the owner of the flock and an appoint
ment made for a meeting next day.
Smith not appearing, and the sheep being
found unattended, search was made
for the herder, who was found next
day at the end of lariat, which was at
tached to an old Indian cayuse. He was
scarcely recognizable, being pounded and
mashed in a terrible manner and all but
naked The supposition is that he went to
sleep, and to keep the pony from straying
put the lariat around his waist and the
cayuse becoming frightened, started off,
knocking Smith insensible before he could
help himself

TOPEKA, September 4.-The Kansas Far
mer this week presents very full report
of crops, covering the entire state, made
mp of short letters from special CORES
pondents The state has not been in as
god condition since 1884, unless 1t be IN
the number of hogs, which was reduced
greatly last year. With the exception OF
half a dozen counties lying on and near
the great bend of the Arkansas, the state
is in good condition. Corn in many parts
rs very heavy, in some parts the heaviest
ever raised in the history of Kansas. With
all the shortages in certain localities, the
crop for the state as a whole will probably
be the heaviest ever grown.
Wheat, though somewhat injured
by insects in places, will average
twenty bushels per acre, and the quality is
generally good. Oats were a little short
in some localities, but with the greatly in
creased acreage is very large. No estimate
of the yield can be got, because a great
deal is being fed without threshing. Scr
2hum is good werever grown, and the
same is true of maize kayyir corn and
millet. Broom corn has done very well IN
the western counties. Grass is growing
we'll yet and stock is in first class condi-
lion. The wheat acreage Will be increased
in the western part OF the state. Seeding
is now in progress and the ground is In
good condition. Kansas crops with the
exceptions noted, are in prime condition.

lie Explains the Prohibition Partys
Attitude.

PENNINGTON, Sept. Hon. James g.
Blaine addressed an audience here today,
speaking principally upon the tariff. Al
luding to the prohibition question he said:
Maine for the last thirty-seven years has
been under prohibltory law. think the
state is far richer and far better But we
have party now coming in and telling US
in effect that Maine had better not pay
any attention to prohibition until we can
organize a national party and we can
suspend temperance in Maine practically
till we convert Texas and Alabama. That
is precisely what this national Prohibition
party means, for those who talk fanatically
avow that they intend to defeat the Re
publican party and bring the Democratic
party in power as a temperance movement
lLaughterl And this Prohibition party
outside of prohibition is entering into
partnership with the Democratic party to
defeat the Republicans. If it were possible
they would elect that sanity en- bodiment
of prohibition and temperance, David 5.
Hill. governor OF New York, and ali over
the country stab the Republican party in
the back and in the dark They say that
the Democratic party shall be brought
into power; then there will be a reaction
against the Democrats and by some polit-
ical process of which the working is not
Yet apparent the national Prohibitionists
will come into power. Fellow citizens. the
Republicans of Maine have worked many
years in and for temperance reform and
will not turn back from the good cause.
But the immediate issue this year is 10 de-

is not the great interest manifest
ed that we would love to see, but
there is a healthy and growing
sentiment among the people in
favor of the Amendment. Let us
thank God and take courage.
In conversation with the Secre'
tary OF the Republican County

shall, that gentleman said, in q
manly way, that he proposed to
vote for the Amendment on its
merits, regardless of what others do

staunch friends of Prohibition. At,
our last League Meeting represen-
tative citizens fearlessly commit
ted themselves to the support of
the Amendment; among others,
Mrs. Simonton of the w. G. T. u,

the mothers and wives of our land.
God bless the w. G. T. U. of our
