it has nothing to do with selecting mem

There is falling of one point i'll Georgia
and Florida, of two in Alabama, four in
Arkansas and seven in Texas. The gen

relatively high. The improvement in the
Mississippi river bottoms is from the rap

growth and of abundant iruiting is gen
orally reported.
There are frequent references tn the
droughts, in some instances Of several
weeks duration, followed by sufficient
rain fall, IN some cases by excessive rains,
yet there has been no general drought.
One section of the county is reported
dry, while another is too wet. The
storms appear to have been local over
portions Of the cotton belt. Sandy soils
have been benefited by the rains which

drought, which has scarcely wiltcd the

says w. u. Curtis-The House
Will EkeceSle OH the Tariff BiIl.

| WASHINGTON, August 9.--William FL
lcry Curtis, of the State department, who
stands closer to Mr.. Blaine at present
than any mdn in Washington, returned
here recently from Western trip. He
made the following statement, which he
has endorsed, of the relations that exist
at present between the President and his
secretary of State, with reference to re-
ciprocity:
"As the dominant party in congress
does not avail itself of those very favor

rocity proposition as outlined in his let
tcrs to Senator Fryc MIR. Blaincis Justly
indignant. lie charges it all to the de-
sire of republican statesmen to make po-

preaching elections. The delay in secur.
ing reciprocity would not make this cap.
ital available this fall and tor this reason
hey are willing to torego an incalcula-
bile advantage to the entire country sim
ply that they may advance their own in
tercsts and maintain the supremacy of
the party. II is against such selfish,
that Mr.. Blaine raises his voice and feels
called upon to criticisc the Mckinley
bill as well as its supporters. The rela-
tions of the President and Secretary
Blaine are not of that strained character
which some newspapers have so indus
triously represented. President Harri-
son, while he does not go quite SO far as
Mr.. Blaine, agrees with him in the main
and does not approve congressional ac-
tion in the matter referred to. saw the
President at Cape Nav recently, and he
cited me as witness to the fact that he
and Mr.. Blaine were on friendly terms,
and had to testify in his favor. They
have their little tiils, for both are men OF
strong convictions. Neither is made OF
wax, and when they come together the
sparks sometimes fly, but there is no APP
proach to an open rupture and a serious
difference between them"
That there is to he compromise at
tempted ON the question of reciprocity.
there is no reasonable room for doubt.
The manager oi 1t, however, is President
Harrison, and not James G. Blaine. The
members Of the ways and means com.
mittcc are as vigorous as ever IN their de-
nunriation of the sccrctary's course, and
say that. assisted by the power of the
speaker, they will throw the reciprocity
amendment out of the tariff bill il the
senate puts it in. The general opinion.
however. is that they will bc compelled
to accept what the senate proposes.

DEMOCRATS SHOULD UNITE.
Col. Coke speaks Ofrhc Coming
Fan Election.

That Colonel Prank Coke is going to
bc prominent factor in the coming con
gressional nomination is generally ad-
mittcd, not only by the friends OF that
gentleman but by every thinking man in
the Ninth district. With SO many candi-
dates in the field and with no one with
a certainty there is plenty of oppor,
tunity for n man with SO many political
friends as Col. Coke has, and his personal
friends recognizing what they they think
is the strength OF their candidate, pro-
pose to make things hum.
Col. Coke was seen by n CITIZEN re-
porter this morning, and asked about
politics in general and the race in the
ninth in particular. at is gong to bc
no walk over no matter who we nomi.
nate" he said. The race was hard
enough when we were under Il demo-
cratic government and had democratic
officials, and even then we were defeated
two years ago. This year the ground
will bc Just as bitterly contested. Ewart
is going to make n strong race, and il is
high time that the democrats began to
cast about for its strongest man. II will
he no easily purchased honor at
the best. The man who will go in and
win will certainly he deserving of the
office, and whoever the convention de
c,lcs him to be shall give him all the
support in my power"
Col. Coke is q farmer and probably til,
largest producer in the district and il is
only natural that he will receive support
from the tillcrs Of the soil. Regarding
the Progressive Farmer and Senator
Vance. he for one, does not believe that
the paper voices the the sentiment of the
Alliance.
Senator Vance is certain to he rc-clcct'

do IL. They recognize him as their friend
and his position on the sub.trcasury bill
