The management of the Colby Foot
Ball Association has again secured the
services of Chas. d. Clark of Tufts Col
lege, as coach for the team in preparation
for the coming game with Bowdoin. Mr..
Clark has coached the team for several
weeks, this fall, and under his instruction
the team has made wonderful improve
ment in playing. Mr.. Clark completed
his labors and left the team, after the
game at Brunswick, but on account of
generous response to an appeal for
financial aid, to the alumni, the team will
secure some weeks more of his most excel

Monthly Crop Report.

The reports of the statistical cor
respondence to the office this month
has been unusually large, and from
these returns I am justifable in say
ing that the condition of all crops has
advanced very greatly since the last
report. The weathsr-has been favor
able for grain and grasses Of all kinds
and for all kinds Of farm work, and
the farmer is well advanced in spring
work. The prospects for better prices
are much better than last season,
quite number of farmers have en-.
gagged their wheat at threshing time
at so cents bushel, but many others
are holding, and from present prices
they have good prospects for realizing
more money. The report for wheat
one month ago was 80, today it stands
at So per cent, an advance of six
points. The time for the fly to show
itself and for the rust to strike it, is
just before ripening, or just before
harvest. l will buote the remarks
from different parts of the State.
From the county of Christian DR..
Clardy writes: "Had good rains; pros
pect for good crops seldom seem bet
ter; elegant stand OF young clover,
was partial failure last year; some
trouble from worms, but not serious
here yet From the county of Car
roll: "All farm prospects ere 100 per
cent. compared to 1894" From the
county OF Caldwell: "Wheat looks
we'll, tobacco beds never looked bet
ter; cut worms very bad; some early
corn will have to be planted over"
From the county of Campbell: "The
wheat and other grains come out Won
derfully since last report; fields that
looked hare months ago look like they
viii! make large yields" From the
county of Woodford: "Wheat. rye,
barly and oats excellent growth; the
young clover splendid CATCH" The
Hon. G. L. Searcy Of Mason county
writes: Prospects good for all kinds
of crops; farmers feeling good" From
the county of Harrison: "Wheat is
rank and of fine color; little spot
ted" From the county of Union:
"Farmers all happy; corn is being put
in rapidly; ground in good condition;
weather fine and prospect for good
crop here never better"

SERIOUS DAMAGE BY FROST.
Fifteen States Get a Nip During
saturday Night.

Chicago, May 12.-The Weather
Bureau, in report on the frost last
night says:
The frost area reported last night
is unusually extensive and severe for
this time of the year, frost having
occurred this morning in all of the
fifteen States for which it was FORE
casted Saturday. In the peach belt
of Michigan and the cranberry mar
shes Of Wisconsin temperatures be-
low freezing occurred, and the frost
was OF killing nature.
Frost of more or less severity &C.
cnrr d throughout the States Of the
upper lake region and the upper Mis-
sissippi valley. on the east slope of
the Rocky Mountains and in Monta.
ma, Wyoming and Colorado. In these
States the temperature will rise con-
siderably tonight.
Reports from many points in the
northwest are to the effect that con.
siderable damage was done to small
fruits and vegetable crops in many
sections by the frost, Corn in some
places has been badly injured, but
may yet be replanted; other grains
are said not to have suffered.
The Chicago, Rock Ifland and Pa
cifc Railway Company received re.
ports today from more than humid
red agents at stations along its lines
IN Central, Western and Northwest
ern Kansas, which show that the frost
was severe on vegetables and garden
plants; that the fruit was not mate
riallo damaged, aud that the wheat
and other small grain generally es-
capped and Was not injured except in
a few localities.

Washington, May 1O.-Gold in
considerable quantities is being ex-
changed for silver certificates of small
denominations in the northwest. In
Chicago yesterday the United States
sub-treasury received s65O,OOO in
gold in exchange for such paper mo-
ney and the same demand, only less
prominent, is felt at other points in
that region. The demand for small
money is taken as an evidence of a
revival of business with the opening
OF spring. Inc treasury continues,
however, to lose gold at both New
York and San Francisco, where Uni
ted States and treasury n ,tes are be-
ing presented for redemption.
A terrific cyclone devastated por-
tons of Iowa Friday. A dispatch
says:
"The deaths at Doom are now given
as ten. Four or five will probably
cover the deaths at Slbley. At Per-
kins the loss of life is said to have
been very large. probably not less than
thirty Or forty. This, with the mum
Der killed on farms about the country
must bring the number up to nearly
seventy five or one hundred. 1t il
difficult to determine tonight what
the loss to property will amount to,
but from all accounts it must be enor
nous. The demolition of three schoo
houses and the death OF a number Of
teachers and children form one of thu
saddest fe ltures Of the terrible disas
ter. The school buildings at Breton
Sheldon and Alton were torn to atom
and at each place a number Of thu
children were killed or injured. Mr.
John Fosters house was totally de
stroyed not far from here, his wifi
killed and one child blown away AM
can not be found"

THE TITHING SYSTEM
Adopted by the Southern Baptist
Church Convention.

In the Southern Baptist Church
Convention in session at Washington
the committee on church revenue re.
ported. The report on tithing re.
fcrred to the great financial embar-
rassment of the Southern Baptist
Convention and concluded as fol.
lows:
"Your committee recommends the
adoption of the tithing system, and
that our several State conventions,
district assoclations,' the pastors,
churches and missionary societies
give earnest heed and active co.ope-
ration 10 their efforts to educate our
people in paying systematically to
God not less than one tenth of their
income.
"The Rev. e, G.. Mullen, of Ma
ryland, and the Rev. Lotion, of Ten
nessee, led the discussion in earnest
support of the suggestion of the CON-
mittee for the adoption of the tlth
ing system. The former argued thai
payment to God of the tenth would
prosper men more than solving the
financial question or firing cannonl
into clouds to bring rain, and the lat
ter declared that the prosperity
not the existence Of the convention
depended upon the uadoption O
the recommendations of this com
mittee,"

BUYING GOLD
An Alleged Attempt to Corner
the Market
NOT LIkELY TO SUCCEED.

Washington, May IA rumcl
that the Morgan Rothschild bold syn.
dlcate ia conspiring to corner e-gold
market, has been regarded as can.
ard. 1t is claimed to be fact, howev-
er, that brokers representing this syn
dictate have been paying premium
for the refined gold output of the pri
vate refneries throughout the West
during the last two months, and that
they are accumulating fine gold at the
rate of 50, 500,000 to $4,000, 900 per
month. This represents fully two
thirds of the entire gold output of the
United States. The attention of Off
cials of the Treasury Department was
first attracted to the peculiar business
by the sharp falling off in the depcs
its of gold at the mint, and inquiry
very soon developed that private par
ties were buying the product of the
refneries. Further inquiry revealed
that the metal was purchased and was
drifting to New York, where it is be-
ing put in store to the credit of the
Morgan-Rothschlld syndicate.
In order to divert the stream from
its usual channels, leading into the
United States minis, the private pur-
chasers have been obliged to pay a
premium of Is to - cent. The
premium paid for most Of the gold
was Is cent, but so anxious have been
the buyers to Increase their lines and
get everything in sight that they have
marked up their quotations during
the last few days. At the present
time they are getting practically the
entire output of the United States,
excepting for the extreme Western
coast.
Many men in Washington and in
Wall street have jumped to the con-
clusion that the f"undati on is being
laid for another bond deal before Con-
gress meets. The last bond deal OF
s62, 900, 900 has been pretty we'll clio
sed out, over S5l 900, 900 in gold ha
wing been paid out of the s64,OOO,-
900, and it is generally believed that
the entire deal will be cleaned up be-
fore the first day of August.
Under the terms of contract with
she Treasury Department, the Morgan
Rothschild syndicate has an option on
any new bonds that may be issued by
the Government prior to October ].
The new bonds are selling today in
open market at 1919. They icost the
syndicate 1919, which would show a
profit of seventeen points in the ope-
ration amounting in all to s1O,54O,.
600. 1t would not be fair to say the
syndicate made that much out OF the
operation, but it is very safe to esti-
mate its profits at 100000
The syndicate is hurrying the com
pletion of its present bond deal with
the government. 1t deposited over
81, 100000 today, which will bring
the reserve up to 1913, 100000. 1t will
not have to complete these payments
until the 1st of August, but the oper-
alton may be closed up within few
weeks. That will leave the syndicate
free field.
Crittenden press. [volume] (Marion, Ky.) 1879-1907, 1895-05-16


the only way this Government can
get gold at all is to go further in debt
issue bonds and pay excessive rates
Of interest, and this plan to be repea-
ted time after time, and as often as
our stock needs replenishing. The fact
is that three men control the worlds
gold market, and they are constantly
contracting it and shifting values;
they handle it as the boy who holds
the string to his toy balloon.
The "Yard stick argument" is fire.
quently used by men unfolding the
gold standard. They claim that we
should have fixed measure fer val
ues; that you can not have this with
two metals but you can with one, and
ask how it would 40 to have yard
stick.that varied in length, etc. This
is really no argument, and not COM
parison at all. 1t is true that the
yard stick is fixed measure of length
and that the dollar Or unit is fixed
measuae of values, and the amount
or quantity of gold in the dollar is
fixed; but the value Of this gold is not
fixed, aud on the contrary is constant
ly increasing in value, They fail to
make the distinction that while the
dollar is measure of value, and the
yard stick measure Of length, yet
the dollar is valuable measurement,
and the yard stick is not. In other
words, the gid in the dollar is valua-
bic, and the wood in the yard stick is
not. The raw material in the one is
valuable and getting more 50 all the
time, and therefore the manufactured
product, the dollar, is growing more
valuable, while the raw material of
the yard stick is practically valuel ess,
and always has been. Besides, the
dollar i, used both as measure of
values and medium of exchange,
while the yardstick is only measure
of length, and never used as a medi.
um of exchange. 1t is simply used
to measure the cloth, for instance,
and is never "thrown in" the bargain,
and neither adds to nor detracts fro n
the value of the cloth measured. A
yard stick Is a fixed measure of length
but there is no suoh thing as fixed
measure of length, but there is no
such thing as fixed measure of val
ues, or fixed value to property.
In the use of gold as measure of
value we see that certain quantity
of it will not always measure the val
ne of bushel of wheat, The latter
may be worth 80 cents today and 60
cents tomorrow. You can't make
yard stick out of gold dollar in the
measurement of values.
A yard stick can not be tamr red
with and It's honest measurement is
easily secured. If gold is to be our
standard Of values, i. can shrink or
expand at the pleasure of those who
are able to run trust on it at any
time. They can not run a trust on
silver, because it finds its way into
every thoroughfare Of trade, and is
scattered among the great mass OF the
people, who use it in the millions of
their daily transactions, and is there
tore inaccessible to the money chang
ers for such purpose. This guaran.
tees more stable standard Of values,
and more uniform price on commo-
dilies and property of all kinds. A
gold standard is subject to contrac-
ton and expansion at the will of those
who are able to lock it up.
