FELLOW CrTrZENs-This Empire state
has great wealth and resources that reach
out all over the country. There has been
IN the west time when the cry was
against New York being an exacting cred
itor. These narrow views will not pre-
vail in the enterprising neighborhood,
or where the states are united in brother
hood. The government Is pledged to
maintain the money at different powers
for every one hundred cents on dollar
whether paper or coin, coin stamped being
as good as any other dollar. We should
avoid the experience of n southern coun-
try When n nation has an irredeemable
currency then the men from your shops
who turn out thesupplies and the farmers
have tho greatest Interest In receiving one
hundred cents on dollar. We have
this year an extraordinary agricultural
crop. The crop will be worth billion of
dollars over that Of last year. Then we
find that the government of Russia has
prohibited the expectation of rye. France
and Germany will absorb every bushel of
wheat now on hand in those countries.
Whatever complaints there may have
been IN the past this year there will be a
smile on every agriculturalist's face of
the country. The granaries of the coun-
try are unable TO bold the grain. This will
bring back the lost gold of past years.
We should be happy people for all con-
dttions are favorable and order should
prevail; and, above all, there should be
patriotism and adherence to constitution
and love

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Aug. f9-The
farmers of Vigo county, backed by the
Farmers Alliance areprotesting against
the assessment Of AKtell, the $l05, 600
stallion, at $500 by the county board Of
review, and have appointed committee
to go to indianapolis TO ask the state
board of tax commissioners to raise the
assessment. A strong element in the
alliance wants the horse assessed at the
price paid for him, and claim that the
stallion is earning an enormous per cent.
on the investment: that the profits Of
the owners of the horse last season We're
1000; that farm property is assessed
at high figure under the new tax, and
that there is no reason why such per-
sonal property as this should NOT also be
fully assessed. There is bitter feeling
among the farmers on the subject.

young hen of this seasons Matching,
that on last Friday and Saturday began
her motherly career with the deposit of
three eggs, which remarkable feat she
