To counteracta somewhat current opinion
that Good Templary is constitutionally in
support OF the third party" the following
resolution was adopted and ordered to be
sent for publication in the county papers:
Resotoed, That the Independent Order OF
Good Temp ,ars is not Il. political party and
We do not think it wise TO associate politics
with Good TempIary. There is nothing in
our constitution or obligation which does in
any way conflict with the political, moral
or religious opinion Of any member, there
fore We offer our protest against the senti-
ment which seems to prevail that all Good
Templars who do not support the nominee
OF the third party are advocates Of the rum
traffic. We believe in prohibition in the
individual, in the county, State andst the
United States but claim our right to cast
our votes according to our convictions and
considerations judgment, and in so doing
we do not violate any OF the laws of our
Order We believe that the political phase
is detrimental TO the success of the Order
and will be ruinous TO our cause. The ten
perance sentiment is rising gradually and
grandiy and we are especially interested in
the future success Of the temperance cause.
To those who would join our Order but for
the political phase we will pledge our most
sacred honor that there is nothing in our
constitution or bylaws relative to politics
and that no applicant for initiation into the
Order Of Good Iemplars is required to sup.
port any political party AS a means to
reach the end and secure the victory OF the
great temperance reform, let all the lodges
unions and associations continue 10 work
on the same line we have worked on until we
shall have created such high grade Of tenn
perance sentiment that all political parties
and politicians will feel to secure success is
to nominate men who are pledged to sup
port the temperance cause This we deem
to be the shortest, safest and best way to
to accomplish what all lovers Of home, coun-
try and God desire.
The District Lodge adjourned to meet at

Condition of the Crops.-The Farmers

Condition of the Crops.--The Farmers
Reo5et1, Of Chicago, says: while the gen
eral condition of the corn crop of the coun-
try is considered good, it has been widely
published that in Kansas very serious dam
age has been done to the corn by hot winds.
These reports are authentic. The condition
Of the corn crop in Kansas is about 70 per
cent. of an average, which is much lower
than that in any other corn-growing State
reporting this week But the corn is not in
bad condition in all parts of Kansas In
Bourbon county, for instance, the condition
is placed at 100 per cent, in Douglas at 105
per cent, and in WoOdson and Harper coun-
ties at 100 per cent. The worst report comes
from Rush county, where the condition is
estimated ut only 10 per cent. of an average.
! The condition ct corn in other States is
comparatively satisfactory. Most of the crop
will be out of the way Of frost in good time,
but farmers arc afraid that few fields which
had to be planted II second time, on account
Of cut worms, will be caught should frost
come early. Pastures are in very lair con-
dition. Potatoes are good Oats are weigh
| ing out well on account Of the cool, moist
season in many localities"
