The weather has been very hot and
dry for two weeks. We had a good
rain the 18th Of July.
Corn has been seriously damaged by
dry weather, but that planted early
will make half a crop. 1t is surpris-
ing how much dry, hot weather corn
will stand and still make corn.
ThreShing is in full blast now.
Outfits thresh as low as II cents per
bushel. Upland wheat is a good as
last year, averaging about twenty
bushels per acre; bOttOmland wheat
was damaged by frost and averages
from 10 to 80 bushels per acre, but is
not as good quality as last year.
There has been several crops burned
here, some by engines and some other
wise. There was thunder shower
passed along the Strip line the other
day and lightning struck in three
places, setting the grass on fire; they
had some trouble controlling it, but
no damages to speak Of. We cut six
acres Of grass Thursday and Saturday
night.
Wheat sells from 30 to 81 cents at
Hennessy; oats % cents. Oats were
rather light, from Is to 50 bushels Del
acre. Early potatoes did well, but
late ones are very poor; cabbage, to
matOes, sweet potatoes and peanuts
are doing well. Health is good; thu
people seem cOntented and happy
They think the Peoples ticket viii

PEOPLES PARTY PLATFORM. ADOPTED AT THE
OMAHA CONVENTION JULY 4. 1876.
First-That the union Of the labor forces OF
the United States. this day COMMUNICATED
shall be permanent and perpetual. Nav its
spirit enter into all hearts for the salvation
OF the Republic ana the uplifting Of man
kind.
SecOnd-Wealth belongs 10 him who creates
Il. and every dollar taken from Industry
without an equivalent l., robbery. IF any
will not work neither shall he eat" The in
terests OF rural and civic labor are the same;
their enemies are identical.
Third--We believe that the time has come
when the railroad corporations must either
own the people or the people the corpora
lions, ana should the government enter up-
on the work Of owning and managing any or
all railroads We should favor an ameadment
to the Constitution by which all persons en-
gagged In the government service shall be
placed under civil service regulation OF
the most rigid character so as 10 prevent the
increase OF the power OF the national admin
istratiOn by the use Of such additional gov
eminent employees.
We demand national currency-safe,
sound and flexible, issued by the general
government, and full legal tender for all
debts, public and private, and that without
the use OF banking corporations: Just,
equitable and efficient means OF distribution
direct 70 the people at a tax not to exceed
per cent, per annum, to be provided as SET
forth In the sub-treasury plan Of the Fam
er's Alliance or some better system; also by
payments in discharge OF It's obligations iOI
public Improvements.
We demand the free and unlimited coinage
OF silver and gold at the present legal ratio
OF 16 toll.
We demand the amount OF the circulating
medium be speedily increased TO not les
than $50 per capita.
We demand a graduating income tax.
! We believe that the moneys OF the country
should be kept as much as possible in tn,
hands OF the people and hence We demand
that all national and state revenues shall b.
] limited TO the necessary expenses OF the gov
| eminent, economically and honestly admin
| istered.
We demand that postal savings banks b,
established by the government for the SAT,
deposit OF the earnings OF the people and Il
facilitate exchange.
Transportation being a means OF exchang
and a public necessity. the government
should own and operate the railroads In tn
interest Of the people.
The telegraph and telephone, like the post
Office system, being necessity for transmits
sion OF news, should be owned and operates
by the government In the interest OF tn
people.
The land, including all the natural source
OF wealth, Is the heritage OF all the peOpl
and should not be mOnopolized for specula
tive purposes, and alien ownership OF Ian
should be prohibited. All lands now held b.
the railroads and other corporations In e1
cess OF their actual needs, and all land
now owned by aliens should be reclaimed b
the government and held for actual settler
only.
