bell from Drowning.

On Saturday last when Rev. J. M.
Campbell was hunting ducks on Loon
Lake, in Northern Illinois, the boat
capsized, and he and his companion
were thrown into the lake. Where the
accident happened, they were about
half a mile from land, and, although
encountered with heavy rubber boots
and large supply of ammunition, they
managed after much struggling to cling
to the upturned boat; and after being
an hour in the water they at length
drifted to shore.

Clearmont, July 2. lSS9-Farmers
are busy clearing their crops, which
had become very "foul" owing to
the recent heavy rains. Corn is look
ing exceedingly well and at present,
prospects are fine for good crop.
Wheat threshing is at hand, and in
some localities, the yield will be very
good, which is due in most cases, to
good cultivation previous to sowing.
The Oat crop is far better than was
expected, owing in great measure, to
the past few weeks of rain.
Mrs. Witty is very sick at present.
We hope to see her up soon.

The Cronin Mystery and Middle.

Viewed from this distance, through |
the have and dust, what the Chicago |
officers and courts call "evidence,"
we oave not seen more lame and
impotient attempt at ferreting out the
perpetrators of "a great crime than
that which has reached its second
stage in the Cronin case. From the
date of DIR. Cronin's disappearance
the police, coroner's juries, grand ju-
ries and courts have apparently done
nothing but blunder and bOggle and
muddle. After nearly two months
of running to and fro and excited in
vestigation of everything but the real
matter supposed to be in hand, the
grand jury has indicted seven men.
on suspician. There is, as the jury
and the prosecuting attorney virtual
ly admit, barely probable cause" to
hold these men. One is "believed to
know something" of the alleged trial
of Cronin by camp 90, Clan-na-Gael,
and his alleged condemnation to
death by those who tried him; anoth-
er is supposed to have found the ac-
tive men" engaged in the alleged
conspiracy to kill Cronin; Burk is
"believed to be one who was in the
cottage when Cronin is supposed to
have been killed there"-and so we
grub through the whole list of "be-
liefs," suppositions' and guesses.
And to reach this ability to suggest,
the whole range Of hearsay, and bab-
BILE, and tattle, and stories of enemies
and friends, has been raked over and
recorded on thousands Of pages; and
this stuff is called "evidence." Alex
ander Sullivan's private kilograms
were seized and overhauled' the post
Office was invaded, private cores
pondence rifled and scanned to find a
suspicious word or line. Sullivan's
grain speculations occupied the
coroner's jury whole week and the
grand jury as long. That monu-
mental liar and horse thief, Wood
ruff alias Black, was induced to
make series of confessions and
Statements" each one cOntradicting
its forerunner, solely to prejudice
Sullivan's case before the public ; but
at last the grand jury and prosecuting
lawyers are forced to admit that there
is no sufficient ground for the indict-
ment ofthe man, whose history has
been canvassed by them for sixty
days.
The whole thing, from first to last,
looks like ghastly sham, enough
like that to convince an unprejudiced
mind in possession of all develop
ments, that the theory of many that
Cronin has not been murdered at all
will eventually prove to be the correct
one.
And now the prosecutor announces
that his only hope of catching "tht
chiefs" in the alleged conspiracy
is BASED on the probability that ont
or more of the persons in custody
will "squeal," turn informer-whicf

DULL TIMES.

The next two months are gener-
ally considered "dull times" by
merchants in general, and there are
but few who put enough pluck and
determination in their business to
avoid the general fate Of the ma
jority. With live and energetic
merchants there is no time to play
marbles, hunt the festive quail, or
angle for trout. Low prices will
keep every salesman at his post
with work as the watchword and
no time for play. The fact that
low prices, honest dealing and good
goods is the road to success is no
secret, but the trouble is that mer-
chants have not the pluck to let
their goods 60 at small profits. A
great many merchants are still
laboring under the old constitution,
asking the Dutchman's l per cent
and selling on l and years time.
Mark the rapid progress Of those
who sell for short profits, for cash,
or on short times that are counted
by days instead of years. A pro
gressive city is bound to possess
live merchants who can confne the
trade to its corporate limits, and
successfully compete with the met
ropolitan cities of the country. 1t
is true that the distance is short
ened by mails, railroads and tele-
graphs, but remember that the
same facilities that connect the
customer with the city retailer con-
meet the wide awake merchant with
the manufacturing industries Of the
world.
Every corner of our three floors
is jammed full of rich bargains,
purchased at headquarters. We
have not failed to see that there is
PLACE to buy, and we do
not fail to see that there is a WAY
to sell. With the merchant who
sells as he ought to sell, there is no
dull times. Can we be your mer-
chant ? Would you endorse the
merchant who was trying to sell
you goods cheaper than his COM
petitors? Which plank would
you rather place in the platform: /:
low prices, kinship, or obligation ?
While McMinnville is fast gaining
the reputation of
COMING CITE
with her prospective oil wells,
/ natural gas, industries and vast re-
sources, it would be we'll for all to
lend helping hand to the mer-
chants who are trying, through just
means, to establish our mountain
! city as a trading center, and there
| by return the benefit to those who
have helped us in selling them
/ goods bought at factories, as cheap
| as any retailer in the limits of Ten
nessee would dare to sell them. II

HFAR whatthe celebrated DR.. Mcfarland says
- about Liver Diseases in Northwestern Ohio.
The liver is the largest gland of the body and the
labratory of mans whole system, and is the primary
cause Of more trouble In this climate than all else
combined. So much has been said and so much
has been suffered, and many lives have been
rced to the false practice of overlooking great
cause and doctoring its many effects, such Rheu-
matism, Sick Headache, Neuralgia, Dropsy, Heart
Disease and Constipation or Costiveness, and Stom-
ach Diseases, Dyspepsia, Indigestion, and many
efects arising from q dsordered condition of ihe
liver. And yet 1t goes on every day. Well, DR.. how
can this be helped? I will tell you how: Call at
Humphreys Drug Store, end buy for $1.OO, which
is the price of one afrom your physician, enough
to cure any case of liver complaint. Ask for Nc
Farlands Indian Pills. 80 pills in each box. Dose
pill at bedtime. Take them regular and you will
soon see where You have been wasting your time
aud money. They cure every time. Remember. all
the effects disappear we'll. Do not stand In your
own light but go at once before 1t is too late This
is what they cure by regulating the liver: Sick
Headache, Nervous Headache, Costiveness, Rheu-
matism, Neuralgia, Piles aud Stomach Diseases Of
all kinds. Also, Heart Troubles, Dyspepsia, Chills
and Fever.

FARMERS MEETING.-A respectable and
representative BODY of farmers met on
Saturday, the 23rd inst. in the G. A. R.
hall to listen to Prof. John Allison, Dept.
state lecturer of the state farmers alb
ance. Mr.. Allison very forcibly set forth
the dangers which are threatening the
destruction of agricultural interests at
the present time and urged unity of &C
ton on the part of the farmers. Those
present were much interested and ex-
pressed their views and wishes in the fol-
lowing resolutions;
I. That in view of the increasing ac-
tivity and the INSCRIPTIONS methods of
combinations and trusts, which now
curse our country; the unrelenting power
by which they Cypress producers and la
borers: the serpentine methods employed
to squeeze the life out of their victims
and their obvious purpose to undermine
the prosperity of the country by running
its vital interests. We would urgently
appeal to our fellow farmers to merge all
other issues and combine to resist by all
practical and legal methods the ruinous
usurpations Of these constituencies COM
binations.
.. We call for special and immediate
legislation against the so-called "twine
trust" which imposes burden in addi-
ton to those already borne upon our
leading industry of wheat raising, that
will utterly destroy this industry. The
farmers of Minnesota already strug-
Cling against many difficulties will be
driven to abandon their chosen occupa-
ton and contemplate with dismay the
poverty and want that must inevitably
overtake them. We look to the men we
have chosen to represent our inter-
ests to devise some practicable means of
immediate relief.
We call upon our legislature to enact
the most stringent penal laws against
all combinations which aim to increase
the price Of machinery and material used
in farming, and all combinations which
are formed for the purpose of depressing
the price of farm products and at the
same time increasing the price OF manu-
featured food to the consumer. Wewarn
our law makers that the utmost point
of endurance has been reached by the
producers of the nations wealth. That
the dominance of money has corrupted
our people, our Legislature, and even our
courts, that an era of revolution threat
ems our country.
4. That copies of the above resolutions
be placed in the hands of Senator Keller
and Representative Capser, requesting
these gentlemen to bring the subject mat
ter of these resolutions before the senate
and house of representatives and urge
them upon the attention of our legisla-
ture.
5. That we highly appreciate the
grand work being done by Prof. Allison
in his admirable addresses to the farmers
his ability and disinterestedness in work
ing SO earnestly for their welfare. We
invite him to visit us again as soon as
circumstances will permit him to do so.
The following is the committee on res
olutions: O. G. Lyman, James Gray, w.
J. VanDyke.
