From the Farm, Field and StOckman.
We learn that agents Of the big mill
ers, eastern grain buyers, elevator men,
etc, are running through the country
telling unlnformed farmers that on ac-
count Of the bouutiful crops the price Of
grain will be as low as 1t was two years
ago, and are buying all they can get
threshed, or even unthreshed, for Octo-
Der, November or December delivery, at
prices below what 1t is worth. These
spectators are we'll informed on the
European situation and know that, al
though we are harvesting the biggest
crops ever known In the country, this
will be more than Offset by the shortage
across the water. The shortage IL 40
great, coupled with the fact that there ls
no old stock left over In this country,
that we are justified in the belief that
prices will be higher than at present,
rather than lower.
Russia, our most formidable competi-
tor In the grain market, has not raised
enough to feed her own people. France
is to large extent short and has re-
pealed the duty on breadstufs FOR one
year Germany Is short, also, and Che
latest European news brings the intelll-
gence that her ministers are contending
over the question Of repeating the du-
ties. All grain growing countries, ex-
cept America, seem TO be short. To the
United States all must look for supply.
This being the situation, there is no
sense in being In hurry. We should
set the minimum price Of wheat at 81
per bushel on the farm, and not sell q
bushel for less; corr, so cents; oats, 40
cents; other grains, and hogs and cattle
In like proportions. II we FELL for less

implies. When fully organized It viii
have no office or purpose other than thai
Of upholding the credit Of the state anC
it's public and private institutions, and oi
promoting the financial interests Of its
citizens. OF its many organizations and
societies, Kansas can boast Of none that

ject in view, an association organized
solely for the good of Kansas, which EN-
braces not only its business and CONNER
cisl interests, but the character and repu-
tAtion Of It's people for morality and
honesty, it's financial credit, its all.
Then it proceeds to sum up the re-
marksble growth of Kansas, her present
prosperity and the injury done to the
credit Of the state by Peffer's alleged
statements prejudicial to the solvency Of
the state. The following extracts from
the circular win show it's general ten
dency.
"PEFFER MUST NOT BE SEATED"
"SenatOr PETER must not be seated as
United States Senator to represent The
grand state of Kansas, which he has 80
grossly injured. II he should be, 1t is
patent that our cause Is lost, and during
his six years tenure we must sit with
bowed heads and cheeks crimson with
shame while from his high place he
utters his blasphemy and his degrading
against our noble state and It's
institutions. All the while his utter
ances will carry the weight that a man in
such an exalted position as United States
Senator would naturally signify. Time
md again he has told the world-for the
newspapers carry his messages to the
'ar corners Of the globe-that Kansas Is
nsolvent, unable and even unwilling to
pay her honest debts. The echo of his
hateful words, though uttered In Boston,
n New York, or elsewhere, resounds
'ver our fowery prairies groaning under
he weight Of a bountiful harvest"
"How to devise remedy for such an
'ffense as has been committed against
he financial welfare Of Kansas has been

t number Of the most patriotic, earn
st and well informed men Of the state"
Then, after charge that PETER was
lected by bribes and threats and other
ecret means, IL continues: "It has been
eld time and time again that an cleo

air expression Of the will of the voters

not with the rest Of the papers at the
time they came into the possession OF
the Times, and for this reason 1t Is inn
possible to give the full details. From
reliable sources, however, 1t ls learned
that the league will have members in
every city and town In the state. In the
six cities of the first class a committee
consisting of twenty citizens, regardless
of politics, will be formed. In cities of
the second class similar committees con-
sisting Of ton members, will be formed,
while In third class cities and all other
towns and hsmlets the committee will be
composed of five members.
The work of forming the committee In
the various cities and towns in the state
will be completed at the earliest possible
date in order to give time TO the major
committees to perform their work before
Congress Convenes. After these commit
tees have been formed, each shall select
a chairman. The ohairmen of the hun
dreds Of committees shall constitute a
governing board, and from this board q
committee Of fifty influential citizens
will be appointed to 60 to Washington
and present the memorial to the United
States Senate.
1t Is arranged that all the work shall
be done on one day, and that the whole
matter shall be kept secret until the time
TO act. Then the committees being all
ready, will proceed to the actual work all
1t once. On the evening after the varI-
ous sets Of charges are circulated and
signed they are to be forwarded to the
governing board at Topeka. This board |
will then attach all the signatures to-
yether with the specific charges to q
memorial, which will be presented to
Congress by the committee Of fifty.
A well known lawyer Of Kansas City,
Kansas, had received one Of these circu-
ars together with q letter and it was this
'opy of the circular that by accident
anne into the possession Of the Times.
The letter was an earnest appeal to him
o join the league and appoint the Kan
as City, Kansas, committee.
AS to what the efforts of the league
Vill result In, no one has been found who
} able TO say. All agree that the un-
eating OF PETER is out Of the question,
nd his friends say that 1t is only q
cheme to excite prejudice against him.

A SCHEME TO INJURE PETER.
KANSAS REPUBLICANS CONsPIRE
AGAINST THE NEW SENATOR.

The Kansas Financial League, With an
Ostensible Object to Preserve the States
Credit, Wants the Peoples Party Man
Barred From Taking His Seat as In
gals Successor Extracts From the
Leagues Circular which Is Being Sent
Over the State.
THE Kansas City Times publishes the follow
ing In Its Issue of August 2l. We reproduce It
as matter of public interest to show the des-
peration of the enemy, not that there Is any
probability of the success Of the scheme.-RDI-
TOR.]
An organization has just been formed
in Kansas which has as It's Ostensible OBJ
ject the expulsion of Senator PETER from
the United States Senate. The friends
Of Mr. PETER claim that 1t ls nothing
more nor less than an attempt on the
part of the Republicans to injure the
new Senator's reputation and the Peo-
ple's party, and that the promoters Of
the scheme do not really expect to un-
seat Ingalls, successor. The fact that
Republicans are at the head Of the Or
ganizRtion is taken as proof that the
charge against the republicans Is true.
The organization is called the Kansas
financial league, and has as its object, &C
cording to the statements made of the
organizers, the preservation Of the finan-
cial credit and reputation Of the state of
Kansas. That those who have at heart the
financial welfare of Kansas should seek
to prevent PETER from serving the state
as United States Senator is upheld by
them in the charge that Senator PETER,
in his speeches throughout the east, has
injured the state by his utterances In
regard to its financial standing.
A MEMORIAL TO THE SENATE.
Circulars ale bel lg sent from the head
quarters Of the league In Topeka to
every city and village In the state, and 1t |
is the expressed expectation of the league
to send to the senate memorial signed |
by vast number Of people, asking that
steps be taken to prevent PETER serving
the state as Senator. This, the friends of
PETER say, can not be done on such
a charge, even if the Senate 80 desired.
PETER has already taken the oath of office
and the impeachment Of a Senator on
the charge indicated would be ridicu-
lous. The circular sent out recites at
length the charges against PETER and
makes some startling allegations In re-
gard to the manner Of his election. It is
accompanied by set plan for o;ganlza-
tion and for general procedure. The cir
cular, which is lengthy one, opens with
the following words:

They Will All Fight It.

The Peoples party will be fought,
by the Republican party, because
that party knows, that if the Peo-
ple's party gets control of public
affairs, there will be an end to their
policy of financial oppression. The
Democratic party will fight it, be-
cause that party knows that to turn
the public affairs of the country
over to the Peoples party means
the permanent retirement of both
the old party bosses from the man.
agement of state and national affairs.
The manufacturers will fight it to
the bitter end, because they know
that it's success is the end of their
schemes for the robbing of labor in
the name of protection. The rail-
roads will fight it with all their
power, because they know that it's
success means the controlling OF
the railroads in the interest of the
people. The telegraph monopolies
will fight it, because they know it
is committed to postal telegraph
system. The banks and usury ex-
tortioners will fight it, because they
know it is opposed to their plans of
oppression and robbery. The trust
and gambling combinations will
fight it, because they bnow it is op-
posed to their schemes of thievery.
These are the kinds Of forces that
are now arranging themselves
against the Peoples party move
ment, or any other movement of the
people that is built on principles for
bettering the condition of what are
called the common people"

tion that is being manifested by the

The Horror Of 1t.

Yesterday there came to us a
pale-faced thinly-clad girl, and beg
ging that we buy the books she car
ried in her arms: Three reports of
ancient date, which magnanimous
government had carefully compiled
that told in figures great beyond hu-
man comprehension the wealth of
our country. Laying them timidly
on our table, the half frightened
child said that no price was asked !;
there being nothing in the house to
eat, she had sought to pawn them to
provide a dinner.
We looked at the pale, wan face
of the infant woman. We turned
the leaves that reeounted the wealth
of a nation. God of heaven and
earth i! was there ever greater con-
trast? Pages of figures that looked
like serpents' eyes in mockery OF
the wants of the poverty-pinched
face beside us told how fruitful hu-
man labor had been; the pinched
face told the story of earth's great
est crime. Between this begging
child Of toll and aggregated wealth,
the highest of which billions alone
can count, the history of our people
lies buried. We thought of our
childhood home far from any city,
with its peace and plenty, and fields
of golden grain, of herds and focks,
of sloping hills where the blue grass
fringed the chrystal brook, and from
it's shadows we gathered sweet
scented mint. We looked at the
child woman and thought of the
sacredness and nobleness of woman
hood, of the hopes of the race that
are in her keeping, of the battle for
bread, and of the battle for virtue,
and we could but say, God help
you, little one, for man will not.
Wherefore this want, 0 man? Do
not those very volumes which pow
erty sought to pawn tell the story
of wealth to feed world? Why,
then, in world of plenty is child
hood enslaved by want? Brothers,

He Bows TO the Alliance.

Senator German has been COM
PEELED to yield to the pressure of
the Farmers Alliance and favor the
nomination of Frank Brown for
governor by the Democratic conven-
ton which meets in Baltimore July
80. Mr.. German exerted all his
power as the boss of the Democratic
state machine to check this move
ment of the Alliance in the interest
of Brown. The senator favored
James Hodges, ex-mayor and one
of the merchant princes of Balti-
more, for governor.
Frank Brown was postmaster at
Baltimore under Cleveland and is as
popular among the city members of
his party as he is among his country
friends. He owns large farms and
is president of the State Agricul-
tural Fair association. He started
his boom with dinner to the coun-
try editors of the state. The AL
lance soon came out for him. Cor
man sent emissaries to all the coun-
ties to conciliate the Alliance
people and prevent split in the
party ranks, most of the Alliance
members being Democrats. They
refused, however, to support any
one else for governor but Brown,
and Mr.. Gorman, to prevent serious
detection, will drop his candidate
and let the farmers have their way.
So far the Democratic county con-
ventions selecting delegates to the
state convention have instructed
them for Brown. 1t has been a
sore disappointment to German and
the other managers to give up
Hodges, and the turning down of
the ex-nayor will undoubtedly lead
to considerable dissatisfaction in
the party.-Chicago Tribune.

gen are bound to increase our crop
yields on lands that have been reduc.
ed in fertility by exhaustive systems
of farming, The first two of the
above artificial manures may be
stored as surplus in the soil-that is
in excess of the demands of the most
exhaustive crops; but nitrogen must
not be added in excess, but only in
quantities necessary for the full
growth Of the crop. In other words
the soil retains phosphoric acid and
potash, but yields up its nitrogen to
the action of the elements.
The "nitrogen increasers" in soils
are clover, peas, lupins, walnut trees,
etc. Normally these need no fertil-
izing with nitrogen. On thin lands,
however, it may be added to quicken
the growth. nitrogen consumers"
include all grain and hoed crops, and
these are always benefited by the
application of heterogeneous plant food.
The three most important and diff
cult tasks in manuring are, to catch
the nitrogen, to hold it, and then to
obtain from it the greatest possible
service.
We are often asked what is the
chemical composition of superphos-
phate. Superphosphate of lime Cor
the ash of bones or mineraD made

The sulphuric acid takes away two.
thirds of the lime of the bones and
converts it into sulphate of lime or
plaster. This leaves the phosphate
in a soluble condition. SuprrphOs-
phate, therefore, contains soluble
phosphate and sulphate of lime. This
is the basis of all commercial or
chemical mpnures that are mauuiac.

buried in places not accessible to
healthy cattle, or where the vegeta-
ton growing on the graves cannot be
eaten by stock. Farmers not infre.
quently are very careless in this re-
