IT's a Law NOW.

nemocratic Tariff Bill Goes Into Erect
without Cleveland's Approval.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2y.--At midnight
the Mckinley tariff law, which had
been in operation since Oct. 30, 1890,
practically four years, died ON the
sthtute books, and the new Democratic
taxtR bill, passed by the Fifty-third
congress, became a law without the sig
nakure of President Cleveland. The
cpnstitntional period Of 10 days allowed
ne president to consider the bill ex-
pared with the midnight hour, and.
aecording TO the terms OF the constitu-

Perhaps you think the cowboy green;
And does not know his gait,
But he knows tn dif between

Tis true, the cowboy was roped in,
And al such things as that,
But cowboy would not stoop so low

The cowboy has ira veled the western wilds,
Fought grizzlies b tn lean and fat,
But never was he attacked

In Texas where the cowboy roams
His heart is filled with valor,
But here he has n diff r,nt heart,
It's fnll of sweet amor.

So let the cowboy take his share
For the good deeds he may do.

Supreme Court on Fishing.

AS we have many times been asked
concerning the recent decision of
the supreme court on angling we
give the text as published By our
exchanges:
1t holds that streams stocked
with fish procured from the state
fish commission are not private, and
all streams are public unless the fish
are actually propagated. TO do
this so that streams may become
legally private, the spawn of the fish
intended to be propagated must be
kept separate in a screen cell, the
fry, when hatched, put into another
screen cell, and so on until they
are large enough to take care Of
themselves. Even then, if the per-
son who is propagating them would
own them, he must keep them con-
fined by themselves, and so much of
the stream becomes private as is
within the screens placed there by
the owner. A pond surrounded by
the owners land, without any con.
tinuous flow, may be called private
pond, but if the water of pond
covers large surface of land, and
person whose lands are covered only
by part OF the water places fish
therein for the purpose of propaga-
CATION, he does not by such act
make it a private pond. Neither is
n notice that "All persons are here
by notified not to trespass on these
lands or fish in this pond a sufli-
cient notice to make it illegal for
either strangers or neighbors to so
trespass or fish. The mere placing
of fish in a stream or pond for pur.
poses of propagation, does not make
such water private under the statute
even on the property of the person
where the fish were put in.
This decision is directly opposite
to the previous acceptation of the
law on this subject, under which
many prosecutions and convictions
have been brought and obtained.
1t is a great surprise to anglers and
a very enjoyable one to many, rs it
will release from exclusiveness many
popular waters that have been held
at the pleasure Of a few, under the
supposed authority of the law which
the supreme court now decides is an
authority the law does not give.

BUCKALEW FOR CONGRESS-.
The Ex x>United States Senator TO

pressed for news when it goes into
the Democratic ranks for this stuff
"a prominent Democratic politici-
an from Columbia county, who was
in Philadelphia last night, brought
the information that ex-United

for Congress in the Seventeenth

trict embraces the counties of Colum-

berland, and is at present represented
by Simon L. Wolverton. Most of
the younger element have been con-
sistently and emphatically opposed
to Mr.. Buckalew,but they say exi gen.
cies have arisen this year which
make it desirable that he shall have
an unopposed nomination.
"The object in bringing him to
the surface at this time is to Offset
Galusha A. Grow in the House of
Representatives. Grow has proven
such picturesque figure that the
Democracy feels it incumbent upon
them to offer a counter attraction
There is, however, stronger and
deeper reason for his nomination at
this time. The Dtmt cr ,tic candid
date for Governor IS anx Gus to brine
out the full party vote at the com
ing election, and fer this reason he
desires TO have the strongest and

DANGERS OF DRESS.

How Men and Women Run Great
Risks During the Summer in the
Way They Are Clothed.
Few people think at this time of the year OF
the great importance of dress.
In the winter people dress warmly because
they know it is necessity, but in the sum-
ner when it is hot, they go to the other ex-
treme and even dress too lightly. Hot
weather causes people to use light clothing;
suddenly the wind changes the air becomes
chilly, and cold is pretty certain to be the
result
Now, where most people make a mistake is
not guarding against these sudden changes
quickly and in time. Any man or woman
who has on light suit of clothing, and feels
change which brings q chill, should at once
counteract the chill. This can only be done
by the use of some pure stimulant, not gingers
or hot drinks, but pure medicinal whisky
that will refresh the system, cause the blood
to circulate, and bring about immediate re-
action. There is but one medicinal WHISKY
that will do this, and that is Duffys Pure
Malt. 1t has for twenty years accomplished
what has never been known before in counter
acting the first symptoms OF sudden colds and
preventing the possibility of pneumonia,
tevers and all the distressing complaints
which follow any cold.
1t should be remembered, however, thas
Duffy's Pure Malt is the only whisky which
will certainly accomplish this, and however
much dealers may talk TO the contrary, IL
alone should be taken.

committee of seven mem bers. elected an

committee of seven mem bers, elected an
nually.
Every spring this committee selects deal
ers in different lines of merchandise, and
professional men and workmen in GER
tain lines of business in different parts OF
the city and gives them an opportunity
to obtain, in strict confidence, what are
called "Rochdale contracts for the year
beginning May Ist. These contracts pro-
vide that in consideration of the great
increase in cash business thereby eX-
pected these dealers will make certain
specified discounts to persons who at the
time purchase, after prices are named,
exhibit the membership card of the So
ciety and pay cash in full. These con-
tracts cover all the general lines of mer-
chandise, some professional business and
some specialties, and the discounts range
from 5 to 80 per cent. The society has
now contracts with LOO dealers and others
IN different parts of the city. and these
dealers are among the largest and best IN
their respective lines and vocations. A
list of their names. locations, lines OF
goods and discounts is furnished free to
every member. Members are not re-
quired to purchase from the Rochdale
dealers exclusively, or more nearly so
than their own enlightened self-interest
prompts. and this enlightened and re-
eiproeal seli-interest has operated TO in
crease the membership Of the society and
the number of its contracting dealers,
because the members quickly perceive
its direct and plain advantages, and the
dealers appreciate the increase OF busi-
ness resulting from the Rochdale con-
tracts, and realize that they are absolutely
guaranteed from loss on Rochdale sales
by their being strictly for cash.
The Rochdale differs from other CO.
operative organizations in several re-
spects, among which are these: That it is
not producer; that it does not enter into
competition with any line of business;
that it does not as an organization or by
agents buy or sell; that il confines itself
strictly to one particular purpose-se-
curing for its members the lowest cash
prices-which it thoroughly accom-
plishes; that its machinery is simple as
possible; that it operates practically al
| most without expense AMI entirely with
out trouble or liability to it's members,
and, finally, that its benefits are open
on equal terms to ALA. L. Sperry,
