From the Topeka Advocate
ISn't This Trueo


Isn't This True:
Will any OF our good Republican
readers of the Advocate and we
have a good many of them carefully
look over their Republican papers
and tell us what principle they arc
contending for in this campaign?
Occasionally one like the Atchison
Champion is adv coating the rcstora-
tiOn OF silver as money, but IL does
not adhere TO the existing ratio as Il
material point in the issue Permit
US to suggest that the restoration OF
silver as money upon condition that
a gold dollars worth of silver at its
current price in the market shall he
put into the silver dollar, Is an aban-
dOnmGnt OF all there is i'm the silver
question that can possibly benefit
the people. 1t matters not O what
material r money is made, II the
amount - the material to be put in
the dollar must be measured by its
market value in gold. The result in
that case IS a single gOla basis for
all money and the restoration of sill
yer upon such conditions would not
help the producer or the laboring-
man one iota.

KNOWLEDGE

tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products TO
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
alive; effcctually cleansing the system,
lispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

THE AUDUBON COUNTY FAIR.
A Pronounced Success. Great Credit Due ths
Management.

1t was with many misgivings and
with what was thought to be certain
ty of failure that the Audubon County
Agricultural society went about the
fair preparations for this year. Hard
times, the drouth, and the short crops
all prophesied the failure of county
fairs. But we are happy to say that
the clouds rolled by and the fair is one
OF the most successful ever held in
Audubon county. Good exhibits, good
attendance and great interest is, in
brief the history of the fair of "a. The
management is happy and we are all
grateful to the men composing it for
the energy and perseverance, with which
they have made the fair so successful
liurrah for Audubon county! We are
all right yet, and if we are crippled no
one found it out at the fair.
The following is summary of the
various reces up to the time of going
to press:

WEATHER AND CROP BULLETIN.
CENTRAL STATION,

Dies MONIES, Iowa, Sept. 4, 1894.
The daily temperature of the past
week ranged from three to seven de-
grces above normal. The extreme
drouthy conditions were mitigated by
light showers on Sunday and Monday,
extending over the larger portion of
the state.
The drying and ripening process has
gone on rapidly and early planted corn
is now near the line Of safety from
damage by frost. Cutting for fodder
is now general in all parts Of the state,
and more than so per cent of the en-
tire acreage will be cut and fed with
out husking. In the southern districts
fully so per cent will be cut and used
as fodder, the grain being separated
by threshing. There Is no change In
the condition of pastures and imma-
ture crops.

FAIR NOTES.

Considering the situation in all lines
of business the attendance at the fair
has been very good, and while not up
to last years attendance it has been
such as to give encouragement to the
fair management.
Great credit is due Vice president
Harp Wilson who has fulfilled his own
duties and the duties of pr sident of
the association so satisfactorily to all.
Mr.. Wilson has been untiring in his
efforts to make the fair success and
any praise bestowed on his work is de-
served.
The speed ring exhibit has been es-
pecially fine. Never before has the
