KANSAS AGITATOR: GARRETT, KANSAS, SEPT 81, 1892
PROHIBITION CONVENTION.

PROHIBITION CONVENTION.
Last Saturday, the Prohibitionists
of Anderson county held a conven-
ton at the court house and noml-
mated a ticket.
The attendance was very small ,
but there was no lack of en- enthusiasm.
After the organization, short
speeches were delivered by Rev
Pucket and wife, of Linn county.
ii. p. Alexander, of Sugar Valley,
was then called upon, and he made
Republican prohibition" speech,
declaring himself opposed to the
Prohibition party movement and
criticising the Prohibitionists. This
brought forth several other short
speeches, in which Mr.. Alexander
was freely criticised.
Then followed the committee on
resolutions, which reported as fol
lows:
We. the Prohibitionists of Ander-
son county, Kansas, do re-affirm our
allegiance to the National Prohibi-
tion party, Trusting in God and
the sovereignty of the American
people, we declare our adherence to
the following principles of govern
ment as enunciated by the supreme
court of the United States: q That
no Legislature or people have any
right to bargain away the pnblic
health and public morals, which is a
condemnation of the license system,
which perpetuates and protects the
sale of alcoholic poisons for beverage
purposes. (2) That those who, by
voice or vote, are helping to sustain
and legalize the sale of intoxicating
liquors make themselves jointly
responsible with the saloon.keepers
tor all the evils that flow from the
business.
We lament that SO many Christian
ministers and members of the church
give their influence to the traffic by
voting for parties that openly favor
the saloon.
We honor the encouragement OF
our state for what he has done to
suppress the joints in TT. Scott,
Wichita, Atchison and other points
in the state.
We have no sympathy with the
declaration of the governor that the
law cannot be enforced where the
sentiment of tire citizens is not in
favor of it. The same principle
would allow any county in the state,
or any state in the Union, to secede
if her citizens were not in favor Of
obeying the law of the state or
nation.
We believe that woman should
have the same means of protecting
herself, her home, her children and
her property that men have, and
that her right 20 vote should not
longer be withheld from her. There
fore, we will stand by and support
the women of our state in their ef-
forts to secure the privilege of vot-
ing.
All citizens should be protected
in their right of one days rest in
seven.
The money of the country should
be issued by the general government
only, and in sufficient quantities to
meet the demands of business and
give full opportunity for employment
of labor. To this end, an increase
in the volume of money is demand
ed. 1t should be fixed at definite
sum per capita, and made to increase
with our increase of population, and
made legal tender for the payment
of all debts, both public and private.
We are in favor Of all money
issued by the government being
kept on a parity, and are opposed to
a single gold standard.

THE INFLUENCES OF CLIMATE ON
HEALTH.

It cannot be denied that influence of
climate upon health is great, and 1t Is
in recognition of this fact that physi-
clans send patients suffering with pull
monary diseases to great distances for
"change of air." But when the sufferer
happens to be too poor to act upon
the advice his lot is hard indeed. But
it is not necessarily hopeless. DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
can be had at any medicine store, and
to ii thousands whose cases were con-
sidered desperate owe their lives.
Up TO a certain point in the progress
of consumption, DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery is a positive remedy,
But delay is dangerous with consump-
ton. In all the conditions that lead TO
It, the Discovery is the remedy. with
severe lingering coughs of weak lungs,
nothing acts so promptly. Every d.
sease that can be reached through the
blood yields to this medicine The
scrofulous affections OF the lungs that's
called consumption is one Of them. For
this and for every other form If scrof-
uIa. for all blood-taints and disorders.
and all chronic bronchial. throat, and
lung affections. the discovery Is the
only remedy so certain that, once used,
Il n always in favor.
Can anything else be 'Just as good"
for you TO buy?
Don't you believe It.

GOODBYE TO THE SAN PEDRO.
She Is Now Splitting Amidships and
Must Soon Go Under the Waves.


A good, stiff gale, says the Colonist
is said to be all that is required now
to totally destroy the wreck of the
San Pedro. Stronger than any en-
gineers prediction as to how long the
vessel would hang together in a shapely
condition on Brotchie ledge, was the
evidence produced yesterday by big
break amidships. From almost every
point ON the Dallas road from the
outer wharf to Macauley road, this
break was noticeable. 1t has naturally
been looked for, however and the won
der is that the ship has stood all that
she has. For four years, ever since
the Pedro grounded on the rocks late
in 1891, the stern end or half of the
vessel has been depending for support
on the forward part, Notwithstanding
strong currents and tides, buffeting seas
and all the efforts of engineers to re-
move it. When the last bolt holding
the San Pedro together gives there win
be little of the craft left above the sur
face, and what is left win, 1t is thought,
soon disappear, for the great weight
which at present holds 1t stationary
will be gone. Then it will require but
a good sea and strong tide to carry 1t
off the rock into the deep water sur
rounding. A good deal OF the ships
machinery has been removed, but in
the hold is nearly, If not all, her driv-
ing gear. This, of course, will sink
with the rest, and with it will disap-
pear a great portion of the hope en-
tertained by some for it's recovery.
Since Captain Lachlan and his son
went East early last fall, the ship
has not been visited by anyone save a
few curious spectators, and the watch
twice from the ship daily, once in the
morning to remove the signal light
and once in the evening to place 1t
again on the ship. This watchman is
an Austrian who owns a number of
cabins on Discovery street, whose in
terests in the wreck are however, only
centered in the work he performs In
Captain Lachan's absence; Mr.. James
Dunsmuir representing the owners, the
Southern Pacific railroad company. He
had not up till late yesterday been in
formed of the ships critical condition,
and consequently there is nothing /
known as yet as to what steps will
be taken in regard to salving the few
removable portions of the ship.

FOR DROUGHT SUFFERERS.

National Alliance Asks Subordinat
Bodies to Collect Contributions.
Through James E. Wilson and C. E
Lawrence, a special committee, the
National Farmers Alliance has ISSUED
an appeal for aid for the NeIbrask;
and South Dakota drought sufferers
The matter was brought up in the an
nual meeting of the alliance in thi.
city last Tuesday, through a communl
of the Nebraska Farmers Alliance
This letter repeated the information
that has been widely published to th'
effect that the people of Western Ne
braska where the drought has prevail
ed for the past two years, were in {
deplorable condition; that they wer,
toes, vegetables and hay; that they
not only had no means, but their cred
it was exhausted. The letter was sign.
ed by the state secretary Mrs. ]. T
Kellle, and by j. M. Dimick, f. G
Wilke, and Thomas A. Donahue, ant
stated that the alliance board woult
agree to receive and distribute accord
ing to need what should be sent in re
sponse to the appeal
In support of this statement, differ
ent delegates present had seen many
letters coming directly from the suffer
ers, and both the outgoing and incom'
ing governor of Nebraska have since
the letter was written directed public
attention to the actual suffering anG
the absolute need of outside aid.
In view of the imperative need OF
prompt and systematic action the ma
tional alliance appointed Messrs. VIII
son and Lawrence a committee to draw
up an appeal to the farmers of the
whole country, and especially to sug-
gest that farmers alliances and other
farmers organizations take steps to
meet the urgent needs. so that what
is done may be done wisely and sys-
tematicaily. These gentlemen make
the following appeal:
We suggest that a thorough and sys'
tematic effort be made by local ALI.
ances and other local farmers organ.
izations to collect needed supplies and
money and that correspondence be
opened at once to obtain the names and
places and committees for distribution,
with the state secretary, Mrs. j. T
Kellie, at Hartwell Neb.; or with W.
L. Dale, president, at Atlanta, Neb.
or Prof W. A. Jones, vice-president,
at Hastings, Neb. or John H. Powers,
state lecturer, at Cornell. Neb. In or
der to reach the sufferers of South Da-
kota, we recommend correspondence
with Ira B. Dye, Sioux Falls S. D.i
C. n. Peck, Mitchell, S. D.; Manlius
Regus, Vermillion, S. D.; or A. G. Hunt,
Aberdeen, S. D., who are well accred-
tied agents for the regions respectively
where they are located. 1t is our con-
viction that there has never come to
our notice an instance Of widespread
and terrible suffering more worthy OF
sympathy and immediate action than
the one here presented.

Mn. Melba does not train as does
Lillian Russell to keep her avoirdupois
within bounds. She eats when she
pleases, and drinks what taste die
tates and does not exercise save when
the idea siezes her. Then she drives or
rides. Her method of keeping down
her weight is to take cold bath thrice
day. and la belle Melba plunges into
her marble tub faithfully three times
a day and SO keeps within the graceful
limits which roles such as Juliet and
Marguerite demand.
