The seasons this year have not been

in former years, and the yield for
these crops will not be SO great,
but wewill have enough and plenty
to spare. Collin County has never
, failed to produce abundant crops

The tariff bill which passed the
House recently was passed by the
Senate last week in a somewhat
modified form and sent back to the
House. The House committee fail
ing to agree on the Senate bill, con-
ference committees were appointed
and the difference of opinion be-
tween the two branches Of Congress
will be adjusted by them. One Of
the results Of the probable passage
of the bill has already developed
and that is the unsettled and dis
organized condition of the New
York money market, which has
caused the President and Secretary
Of the Treasury no little anxiety,
and the end is not yet. Leading
bankers are frightened and almost
panic-stricken, and are discussing
measures and means Of relief if the
bill should become law. Should
the bill be passed to take effect i'm
mediately after its passage, which
is the intention of its promoters,
panic in the money market can no
be avoided under the present con
struction Of the bill.

JUDGING from the expressions Of
a few misguided politicians who
have gone into temporary spasms

would seem that they have failed

publican leaders created this little

A third question is, BY what means
will the Pope be assisted in making

Catholic vote, which begins to intimi-
date politicians. Secondly, the power
of the parochial schools will help the
Pope. Thirdly, the power of the con-
fessional will do so. Bishop Gilmore,

refuse absolution in the confessional
