THE spEEOH THAT WAS MI SPOKEN

THE SREECH THAT WAS NJ SEOAEN
The address that Speaker CRISP ha(
prepared to deliver at the recent TART
Reform Club dinner in New York ha
leaked into print. and those who reat
it will declare it was pity he did no
get chance TO deliver it. There i
nothing in it that the most ardent tariff
reform advocate could object to; moth
ing in fact that any one but confirmed
Republican could find fault with.
The method Of reforming the tariff
adopted by Mr.. CRISP and Mr.. Springer
at the beginning of the session was the
only successful method that could have
been adopted at that time, a genera
and all-embracing scheme of tariff re-
vision being impfacticable with Re.
publican Senate and Repu blican Pres
ident. The REGISTER at the time
upheld Mr.. CRISP and his co-workers In
their seperate bill plan. Now, however,
every branch of the government will be
Democratic and a general bill entirely
feasible. Mr.. CRISP, in his unde-
livered speech, says:
After long years of waiting, the people
may now hope for relief. They have given
TO the Democratic party the power to make
laws. If we execute this power in their
interest wisely, we will merit and retain
their confidence. II we disregard the obli-
cation resting upon US, we will meet the
fate Of the party we succeeded and no man
could Justly say that such fate was unde-
served.
If might speak for my political associ-
ates on the subject of taxation l would say
we believe in tariff for revenue; we be-
lieve that unnecessary taxation is unjust
taxation; we believe that the nesessaries
Of life should be burdened least; we be-
lieve that on luXuries higher duties
may be imposed, and we believe that all
raw material should be free. Speaking
now TO my political associates | would say,
keeping these principles IN view, we should
at the earliest practicable moment enter
upon the consideration of a general tariff
law to take the place Of that now on the
statute books. The people have so de-
creed, and we are but agents to execute
their will. Great interests are involved;
cOmpucaIeu questions VIII present tnem-
selves. We should proceed with care,
with caution, with wisdom, with justice,
and with mOderation; but we should
promptly move forward on the line indica-
ted, TO the end thai our pledges to the PEG.
pie may be redeemed, and that they may be
relieved from system of taxation which
is odious, unequal, oppressive, end unjust.
The Republicans are welcome to all
the comfort they can extract from this
as indicating split in the tariff senti-
mont of the Democratic party.

KANSAS CROP PROSPECTS.

The Latest Information In Regard to
Wheat Oats. Corn and Fruit.
TOPEKA, Kan, June 1.-The Kansas
Farmer publishes to-day crop reports
from its correspondents throughout the
state They indicate a wheat acreage
about equal To that of last year.
The condition OF the wheat crop
has improved generally since
the last report Very few
counties report insects of any
kind In some counties the wheat
on bottom lands has suffered from wash
ing out by floods, but in general the
damage to this crop by the excessive
rains has been less than was to be ex-
pected. The harvest will be later than
usual. but unless some injury not yet
developed comes upon the wheat the
prospect is that fairly good crop will
be harvested Harvest will begin in
the southern counties about June 20
The acreage of oats Is rather lighter
than heretofore on account OF lsteness
of the season and excessive rains This
crop is later than usual, but otherwise
in good condition.
Corn rs very backward on account Of
cool wet weather. The acreage will be
larger than usual, even il planting has
to be extended we'll into juno The
growth of the planted has been slow.

q corn crop with q favorable season

It's flying IN the face
Of Nature to take the ordinary pill.
Just consider how it acts. There's
too much bulk and hustle, and not
enough real good. And think how
it leaves you when it's all over!
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets act
naturally. They help Nature to do
her own work. They cleanse and
renovate, mildly but thoroughly, the
whole system. Regulate it, too.
The help that they give, lasts.
They're purely vegetable, per-
fectly harmless, the smallest, easiest,
and best to take. Sick Headache,
Bilious Headache, Constipation, In
digestion, Bilious Attacks, and all
arrangements of the Liver, Stomach
and Bowels are promptly relieved
and permanently cured. One tiny,
sugar coated Pellet for a gentle
laxative three for a cathartic.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned.
You pay only for the good you
get.
This is true only of DIR. Pierce's
medicines.

TEMPLE, Tex, June 2.-The storm
Tuesday evening proves more severe
than was supposed, reports of damage
coming from as far east as Durango, at
which place many houses were wrecked,
and that little place almost wiped away.
Tom Weathers, wife and six children
were killed outright, the only surviving
member of the family being their young
est child, an infant, which miraculously
escaped. H go
The storm took a peculiar freak at
Fayette Murrel's. A panel door of the
house was cut IN two, but no other
damage was done. except to the stock
house, one half OF which was cut off.

damage done by Monday nights storm
In County A hail as large as hens eggs
fell for some time, breaking windows,
destroying vegetables and killing some
live stock.
The little town of Carney was almost
completely wiped out, but as the houses
were all small frame structures, nobody
was seriously injured.
At Britton, south of here, the school
house and the residence of Henry Butt
were both completely wrecked a num-
Der of farm houses near there We're also
damaged.

IN HARPER COUNTY, KAN.
HARPER, Kan, June 2.-Reports are
coming in from portions of the country
heretofore thought out of the range of
last weeks cyclone showing that the
wheat crop is more badly damaged than
at first thought. Unofficial reports
give the wheat acreage of Harper coun-
ty at 1OO,O acres this year. 1t is now
estimated that ont of this at least 1000
are totally destroyed and 5000 acres
will make but half a crop. Many of
the farmers lost their all and are utter
ly destitute. The heavy rains of Sun
day, Monday and Tuesday have ruined
thousand of dollars worth of household
goods and garnered wheat which the
cyclone left exposed. The restitution
of this city and surrounding vicinity
becomes more apparent each day and
financial assistance from the outside is
necessary. An appeal has been issued
by the mayor asking for aid

munity which they officially represent

VIENNA, June 1.-The mail train from
Aram to Brod was struck by a cyclone
yesterday while at the Nowska station.
The terrible force of the wind is
shown by the fact that two of the car
riages composing the train were lifted
bodily into the air and hurled down an
embankment, causing the greatest con-
sternation among the passengers
Other carriages were knocked over by
the violence of the storm and were bad
ly smashed Twenty Of the persons on
the train were badly injured, some of
them fatally.

THE ASSEMBLY AT AN END.
The Presbyterian Deliberative Body at
Portland, Ore, Adjourned Sine Die.

The Presbyterian Deliberative Body at
Portland, Ore. Adjourned Sine Die.
PORTLAND, Ore, June Yesterday
found the great issues in the Presby-
terrain church settled. The only echoes
heard were protest of r. r. Agnew,
of Philadelphia, and others, that the
action taken in the Briggs case was I'M
constitutional; the protest of DIR. Sprague
and numerous other commissioners who
consider that an evil precedent has been
established in giving such wide powers
to the committee of prosecutions; and in
the Union seminary case, the directors
of the institution are to be heard from
in regard to the proposed arbitration
about transfers.
At the afternoon session an earnest
plea for deliverance by the assembly
against the practice of lynching ne
groes in this county" met with decided
approval
Elder McCook withdrew his statement
of year ago concerning donations made
to Union seminary upon the basis of its
doctrinal soundness, saying that he had
no desire to wound the feelings of any
member of the family of any such donor,
and, no intention of characterizing the
intent of any donor.
The committee of conference with
theological seminaries was announced
as follows. Drs. Hays, Young Bay
ney, Mutchmoore, Moooe, Ba rtlett,
Bayley, Holmes. Wilson, Elders McDou-
gall, Cincinnati; McCook, New York;
Gray, Chicago; Bonner, Indianapolis;
Joy, Detroit; Neglee, Pittsburgh, and
Knox, Minneapolis.
An amusing scene occurred up IN the
introduction of resolutions calling the
attention of ministers, eldern ana stu
dents to the evils of the tobacco habit.
Finally the resolutions passed with a
shout. After the adoption of the usual
complimentary vote of thanks the as
sembly adjourned sine die.
