The exact wording of the minority re-
port presented by Miss Willard was much
sought after tonight, as likely to play an
important part in the coming national
convention of the Prohibition party. The
full text is as follows: -.

the great enemy of reform IN this nation.
that it is the chief foundation OF corrup-
tion in our politics, and We denounce It's
pernicious influence upon our country ana
demand its suppression:
"We hold that the States respectively
have full authority to legislate concerning
the sale of intoxicating liquors within their
borders. Therefore, when the people
have by law interdicted or restrict.
ed the sale thereof 1t 10 the duty OF
the Federal Government to respect their
action and collect no revenue from the
traffic within such State except from per-
sons permitted to sell under State authori-
ty; and whenever the laws OF any State
shall prohibit or restrict the sale OF In
toxicants we demand that Congress IN the
exercise of its powers to regulate com;
merce among the States shall forbid

WEATHER DROP BULLETIN
OF tho West virginia Weather Service fol
the Week Ending August II.

OF tho West Virginia Weather Service for
the Week Ending August II.
PARKERsBuRe, W. VA, August 15.-
Rainfall-Below normal in the majority
OF counties; above normal in the Kama
who Valley and northern Pan Handle;
in the remaining counties it was badly
distributed and some sections were en-
tirely without rain. The showers,
although reviving vegetation consider
ably, were not sufficient in some local
tiles for corn, pastures, buckwheat, and
tobacco. Moro rain needed to start fall
grass; uplands are especially in need OF
rain: in some sections crops are almost
famished; frequent rains in kanawha
Valley nave greatly benefited corn and
grass, and plendid conditions exist for
fall blowing; frequent rains, in the
southern counties retarded threshing
and harvesting somewhat; drought has
slightly injured buckwheat, corn, grass
and tobacco.
Temperature-Gener about the
average and beneficial to corn, pastures,
farm work and allagricultural interests,
although the heat during the first halt
OF the week was intense and not coupled
with frequent showers was slightly in-
furious to crops and vegetation.
Sunshine-Consider blesunshinedur-
ing the week, which was beneficial in
drying wheat and oats not yet in stack.
Wheat-Threshing continues and
yields well in quality and quantity.
Farmers busy preparing ground for fall
wheat in most localities and blowing Is
progressing in others.
0ats-Nearly all taken care Of in most
counties; is in good condition generally
and yielding we'll except in few dis
tricts on account Of injury by grasshop-
pers; considerable oats still in shock in
northern Panhandle.
Corn-6enerally good and prospects
are fine for plentiful crop, it is filing
out well considering the irregularity Of
the season; 1t was blown down badly in
some localities and drought slightly in
jured 1t on high lands.
Tobacco-Doing finely, although some
what retarded by drought.
Potatoes Crop COED in most locall-
ties; rotting in few places on bottom
lands; blackbugs destroying vines, dam
age feared; drought injured slightly.

The rise in silver, which would seem to indi-

speculative operations aud the action Of the
treasury In paying gold for silver notes, went a
long way toward encouraging buying OF Secur-
tiles In the stock market to-day, bit there was
no now business In sight and the demand from
tho shorts was sufficient TO advance prices along
the limo, the offerings being unusually Light in
Wow OF the facts mentioned. The return OF con-
fidence, however, was most marked and the
strength developed In tho market az time wore
away brought with 1t an increase In the amount
OF business done, which was regarded as a
healthy sign, although few now predict either
first OF September. One Of the features OF tho
