WEATHER AND CROP BULLETIN

Special TO the Register
Parkersburg, W. Va, August o.
Weather Observer II. l.. Ball has issued
the following crop bulletin for the week
ending Monday, August 5:
Thus the crop season up to August l
has been slightly warmer than usual,
but with very considerable deficiency
in rainfall.
The Tlst week has afforded excellent
opportunity for cat harvesting and nay
making. and almost the whole Of this
work has been completed.
Reports show that these crops are
very irregular in the yield. Some cor
respondents say the oats crop in their
vicinity was very good, but the greater
number report light yield, especially
of hay. wlich does not seem to have
been more than one-half an average
crop.
Special and regular reports of the con-
dition Of the corn crop show 1t to be.
growing finely and with a very promis-
ing outlook
In the sections where the fruit was
not injured by the frosts, the apple crop
is very heavy, and some growers are
beating the trees to prevent them break
ing down. Wt5h the exception of apples
the full crop Of the State will be light.

A PROHIBITION CHuRCH.-It is now

A PROHIBITION CHURCH-It is now
'! proposed to establish national Pro-
hibition church, which shall ignore
UNCONVENTIONAL lines and unite upon
single pledge of warfare upon King
Alcohol. The initial meeting was
held in the Christian Federation
church, Chicago, on the 22d inst. The
petition for the organization has about
200 signatures, among which are such
names as Gov. John p. St. John of
Kansas, Frances f. Willard, A. ]. Bas-
sett, who was Prohibition candidate
for Mayor of Chicago, J. Simington,
chairman of the Chicago Prohibition
Club; the Rev. f. B. Sutton, of WASH
ington; l.. J. Johnson, OF the faculty
of Harvard University and the Rev.
w. II. Guy, of Cleveland. There are
said to be Elk congregations founded
upon the same lines. at this time, be.
ing off-shoots from the Baptist and
Methodist churches. They are located
at widely diverse places, but will
doubtless join the new church. The
projectors of the new religion, it must
be admitted, exhibit all the intrepidity
OF fsnaticisnl, if they base their faith
upon the Bible, for unless grossly per-
verted it teaches anything but the
doctrine they intend to make the GEN.
trail idea of their creed.

SUICIDE OF AN EDITOR. 1T is seldom
that the list OF suicides is augmented
from the ranks of the Faber-pushers,
doubtless because they become so in
ured to hardships in the experience
necessary to qualify themselves for
the profession that they grow al
most impervious to the mental condi-
tition which must precede the rash
act of self-destruction. There are.
however, exceptions TO all rules, and
We have one TO note, in the death Of

How u. s. BONDS ARE PAYABLE
The impression seems to be very gen.
eral that some of the Government
bonds require interest or principle
TO be paid in gold. This is erroneous.
The N. Y. Tribune, in answer to an in
quirer, states that the first bonds issued
(lS6D did not even specify that the
interest was to be paid in coin. No
other kind of payment was then
thought Of. Since 1865, all govern
ment bonds have been made payable
Gin coin," which gives the Treasury
the right to pay in silver as well as in
gold. 1t was thought during the war,
that the government might pay the
1861 bonds and similar issues in
legal tender notes. This was such
drag upon the public credit that in
1869 an act was passed solemnly
pledging the faith Of the United
States, TO "the payment in coin or its
equivalent OF all the obligations OF the
United States, not bearing interest,
known as United States notes, and of
all the Understanding obligations OF
the United States" except as otherwise
specially provided. 1t was doubtless
this action of Congress and the decis-
ion of the Supreme Court making
specific contracts for payment of gold
valid, that has led to confusion in the
public mind.

A BLooMER BICYCLE EXCURSION

Stop Cracking.

That humanity has lost none OF its
initiative nature in the process OF evo-
luton from its quadrumanous ances-
try is shown by everyday examples.
Olympia has always been infested
with grumhlers, people whose digestion
seems to be so seriously impaired that
they look at all mundane affairs
through jaundiced eyes. Had the
malady not affected the tongue, as
well, it might not be productive Of the
evil which has resulted from this I'M
fortunate condition of the physical
system. But it is noted that the
croaker seduously endeavors to make
others feel as blue" as himself. Nor
is this peculiar malady confined to
any age. To illustrate: A travelling
man was shown to his room by the
bell-boy OF leading hotel, when the
garcon inquired
"Been here before?"
"No, never"
"Well, before you get through with
this town you'll conclude that it will
be the last time you come here" was
the impertinent rejoinder, showing
that the youths ears had caught and
memory retained one of the favorite
expressions of the grown-up profess
sional growler.
Another instance: An agent repre-
senting an important business. in bid
ding adieu to dealer and possible cos
tuner, remarked:
"You have a pretty little city,"
"Yes," was the ready reply, land
the more you see of it, the smaller
you'll think it is"
Now such expressions of morbid
discomfort were better left unsaid. 1t
does not improve business conditions
to expose spirit of hopeless discon-
tent, even if it exists; and by sending
broadcast over the business world such
sinister impressions is to drive from
our support the friendly aid OF more
enterprising communities.
1t is with regret that We feel it a
duty to admonish our people to brace
up. In times of business depression,
the endeavor should be to cheer in
stead of discourage. Everybody is in
need of words of encouragement at
times, and cheerful words fall like the
showers of spring upon dropping en-
ergies and cause the flower of hope to
send forth its tiny petals that in time
develop it into thrifty evidence OF
Gods goodness to man.

THE New HEAD" A GOOD ONE
While members of the press visiting
Portland will miss the genial compan-
ionship OF E. H. Palmer, who has so
long and go successfully managed the
business of the Palmer & Rey branch
of the American Type Founders Co.,
they will find in his successor, Mr.. J..
X. Brands, a gentleman who, while he
spells his name with cross, combines
a thorough knowledge of trade in all
its details, with the social requisites for
a successful business man. Mr..
Brands is just now recognizing his
clerical force, and one change that
has been made is the addition OF Tom.
Nicklin, as travelling representative, to
aid Mr.. Crome in keeping the interior
printers thoroughly posted as to the
progress made in everything that ap-
pertains to the cart preservative."
When we add to this the consideration
that Mr.. Deering, who is veritable
walking encyclopedia" of everything
relating to the printing business, is in
charge of the sales department, it
must be admitted that the Portland
branch is exceptionally we'll equipped
for business. Mr.. Brands comes to
his new position with many years. ex-
perience in the service of the same
company in Chicago, and brings with
him nature that seems to throb with
the spirit of enterprise that has built
up that great city. 1t is his intention
to visit some OF the larger towns in
this State soon as he gets his affairs
running smoothly, to establish a per-
sonal acquaintance with his patrons
and extend the operations OF the COM
pany he represents.
