The drOuth is the greatest calamity
that has ever struck Iowa. The fact is,
it is not Of this year only. 1t has been
coming on worse and worse since 1886.
In that year there were over 80 days
beginning in July that there was no
rain and intense heat. The crops came
on, for the soil was not dried by pre-
vious drouth. 1t was los days until any
great rain fell. From then till now, a
scanty rain fall has kept farmers always
apprehensive. Shows have been light,
and the moisture has been gradually
decreasing. Whether the change is to
be permanent, or whether We have
reached the climax and the seasons
viii revert to the old kind again, is a
matter Of greatest Importance that We
cannot know till the years come. Mean
time, the farmers who have no harvest,
can do no better than to make ponds
to gather the snow and rain for use.
The State Register advises damming
all the creeks and rivers TO hold the
water. A good idea. The Burlington
Post has some advice which it will
probably take two or three years like
this to drive people into following, but
it shows a way to get water if natural
rains, ponds, damming and rain max
ing all fail to supply enough! 1t says:
ut would be an exceedingly ambitious
man who would attempt to estimate in
dollars and cents the cost Of the pres.
ent dFouth to the people of Iowa. It is
one Of those things that may only be
appropriated to. But it is within
bounds to assert that the drouth this
summer has already cost Iowa more
than an elaborate system of irrigation
by pumping, serving every tillable acre
IN the state, would cost. The waters
Of the Mississippi, the Missouri, the
Iowa, the Des MoineS and their many
tributaries could be utilized, and every
acre rendered fertile and yielding in
time Of drouth, just as is nov done all
over the southwest and in California.
In these countries irrigation makes the
desert to blossom as the rose. With
eight severe drouth years behind US,
this one more severe and harmful than
any proceeding. is it not time the far
msr vas turning for relief to the only
agency that We know is both certain
and immensely profitable? -0sce0la

Regarding the sheriff's Office

AUSTIN, Texas, May 23rd, 1894.
To My Friends:
In view of the fact that for some.
time my name has been used in con-
nection with the race for sheriff in
this county, and that have been so
licited and urged to be come candi.
date for that office by many persons
of all political parties, [ deem it my
duty in some public way to manifest
my appreciation of same and make
known the determination [ have
reached. therefore adopt this means
of saying to my many friends who
have thus honored me by their prof
fers of support that will not be a
candidate for the office for the reason
that have arrived at an age when l
am unwilling to undergo the fatigue
of canvass; and for the same reason
[ would be unwilling to assume bur.
de1s of that office because l would be
compelled to intrust the responsible
ty of the discharge If its Gu'ies to
others. a gain thanking my friends
for the interest and friendship they
have shown me in this matter / beg
that they will accept this az my final
decision on the subject.

10 the Public.

Having been informed that some
one is circulating throughout Travis
county that will be an ind. pendent
candidate for the office of county
judge at the coming election, | feel it
my duty to thus publicly inform You
that the same is not my desire, wish or
intention. Such reports may have been
founded upon the fact, as l believe,
not only the majority of the Demo-
Gratis, but Republicans and Peoples
party, do endorse my administra-
ton as county judge, for which feel
grateful to them.
Notwithstanding this, however,
am ard will be strictly, only candi-
date subject to the action of the Dem
ocratic county convention of Travis
county.
Thanking my supporters for their
past favors and soliciting their sup
port in the present campaign, l am,

The Wa ches Of the Night

When Of the repeated kind experienced
by persons troubled with insomnia,
soon bring about an alarming condi
ton of the nervous system. The shak-
ing hand, confusion of the brain, lap
ses of memory and loss of appetite
indicate, with terrible precision, the
ravages produced by loss of sleep,
which if unremedied must destroy
mental equilibrium altogether. No
better and thorough nervine exists
than Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
Common sense and experience point to
its early and steady use in cases Of
insomnia. 1t strengthens weak and
relaXes the tension of overstrained
nerves, which, by the way, resort to
unmedicated stimulants will never do
permanently, while the after effect of
such excitants is most preiudical
Under the influence of this benign
invigorant, appetite, digestion and
sleep return, and bodily comfort and
health are alike promoted. 1t is in
valuable in chills aud fever. liver com
plant, constipation, rheumatism and
kidney trouble.

WHISKY TRUST.

Its Methods of Controlling Business by
Issuing Rebate Certificates.
NEW YORK, May 29.-The World
says: The rebate system of the whisky
trust is likely to have an accounting in
court in the suit which H. NJ. Rice, a
spirit dealer, has brought
against the American distil-
ling and Cattle Feeding com.
pany The evidence is in the
case of Nathan Blur and the papers
were served on President Greenhut on
his arrival from Peoria, Ill, at the
Plaza hotel Monday. In the whisky
world every buyer from the trust gets
rebate of cents q gallon, payable
six months after purchase, on condi
ton that the goods are exclusively from
the trust. When once dealer
has become customer of the trust he
can only cease to be such at heavy
sacrifice. There was a report some
time ago that Che rebate fund had
been expended by the trust magnates
in market manipulating of the
stock, and in answer the
trust managers said there was
$1,900,000 in rebate paper out. 1t is
frequently the case that when the
time is up the certificate is repudiated
on the ground of violations of the
agreement not to purchase elsewhere
and the small dealer is unable to stand
the expense 'of a lawsuit d. NJ.
Keller q Son of Broad street recently
brought suit hich was promptly set
tied. If the trust should fight the
question will be opened up whether
the issuance of rebate certificates is
not a restriction of trade.

OF violence against the consul, but
wiser heads prevailed. Father Moyse,
superior of the Cain order of mission
aries in France, was invited to preach
in st. Augustine Catholic church of
this city and in his address spoke, as
the French consul declares, disrepect-
fully of the French republic. The
consul declared that unless Father
Moyse made a public retraction of
what he had said it would be his 1.-THE

retracted and the whole affair created
