Whenever sheep are low it is a good
time to lay the foundation Of a flock.
Market the hog as SEQ as it is ready
to market. 1t is an expel siye business

In selecting a brood sow, prolificacy
is an important item, fully as much

A vicious ram is about Is great a
nuisance as a farm can have-a fact
that should make all teasing Of rams
a serious otfense.
At the Canada Experiment station,
rape was shown to be the best green
food for the growth of lambs-both
carcass and fleece.
Stagnant or impure water is not
more desirable for sheep than for 9th
err animals. Disease is often intro
duced by it.
Profit in sheep depends largely in
keeping them always in good condition.
No animal RECEIVERS SO slowly when it
has once run down.
The stable should be kept sweet.

The mule is a good deal better ami

For farm work the mule is excellent.
One of the curiosities of the sheep
market at present is that feeders are
selling about as high as fat sheep.
The large corn crop is making a de-
mand for feeders, while other grains
are selling extremely low, because
there is an o~versupply.

from jackson, Mich:
4 have learned enough in
Michigan to convince me that
if the election were to come off
on Monday Bryan would carry
this state by a handsome ma
jority, and to further convince
me that the tendency in his
favor is steadily growing and
that when he passes through
the two peninsulas next week,
making the 80 speeches he is
booked for, even if most of
them be mere greetings TO the
crowds that will gather at the
stations, it is likely TO swell
into a veritable tidal wave. |
have tried TO get my informa-
ton as to how the currents of
thought are running from the
best and most reliable sources,
and | have no need of letters of
introduction to find in the towns
of Michigan men whom / can
trust, and who will tell me
frankly what they know.
1.-The conclusion / have reach
ed is that there is no need of
my going any further to form
an opinion, and that it is now
as sure as anything in the fu-
ture can be that when the Sd of
November comes Michigan will
go for Bryan and Sewall. ~

estIaG Cotton Statenent.
Tuesday, Oct. Is, 30.

Dear Sir-The early improve
meut in Liverpool today was
due to the unfavorable report,
which made nervous shorts
cover, thereby occasioned the
advance. In sympathy with the
early advices from Liverpool
market opened 2 points higher,
but shortly after a decline of 6
points took place on later adj
vices from Liverpool, reporting
a decline there, in consequence
of the issuance of a bearish cir
cular by Mr.. Neill, in which he
estimates the present American
cotton crop at S,900,00O to o.
100, 900 bales. Notwithstanding
this, however, an advance of
13 points from the bottom was
established in the afternoon,
owing to the fear that the unset
tied weather might bring frost
soon. Near the close when it
became generally known that
.he weather bureau predict
ed warmer and clearing
weather for both Texas and
Louisiana, prices became easier
and declined 6 points, reducing
the net gain on the day to 10
points.
The feeling continues very
favorable to cotton, yet the fac
tors initiating against any
permanent advance are, the lack
of demand for spots, tight
money and heavy receipts.
Should receipts get light, and a
good demand for spots spring
up, then the situation would
! become more cheerful. AS these
drawbacks show no chances OF
being adjusted in the neal
future. we think it advisable to
take advantage of weak periods
only to buy, and sell on strong
markets to realize profits.
Very truly yours,
II. & b. BEER.

We DENY.

The Indian Territory delega-
ton, at the late convention of
democratic clubs at st. Louis,
representing clubs of the Chick
asaw, Choctaw, Creekand Cher
okee nations, was polled on the
capital question. Not a dissent
ing voice was raised to the prop
osition to make South McAles-
ter the capital of Indianola when
statehood arrives. All the del
egates conceded that the capital
rightfuly belonged to South
McAlester, by dint of her geo.
graphical location and advan-
tages. This coming from the
representatives of all quarters
of the Territory shows pretty
well the sentiment of the peo-
pie. on this question.-South
McAlester Capital.
The above from the South
McAlester Capital, a usually
correct paper, fair in its prom
ises and just in its conclusions,
is radically wrong somewhere.
Speaking for the Ardmore con-
tingency of the Chickasaw del
egation to the club convention
at St. Louis, the ARDMoREITE is
prepared to assert that no such
poll was ever taken. We will
not say that South McAlester is
not the logical location for the
capital of the Territory, but we
do say most emphatically that
no such proposition was sub
mitted to or voted on by the
delegation to the st. Louis con-
vention of democratic clubs.
We had things of more import
ance than the capital question
TO deal with on that occasion.
A delegate to congress at this
/ t; ne is paramount to the aspir-
atoms of any town for capital
honors, more especially unit
we have some shadow of a gov.
ernment to require a capital.

Quay's Bluff.

New York, Oct. 12.-At the
national republican headquart-
ers today, after a conference of
the entire executive committee,
the following statement was
given out:
THE election of Mckinley
and Hobart is an accomplished
and assured fact. They will re-
ceive 270 electoral votes. Bryan
will receive 110, and there are
six states having 81 electoral
votes, which are doubtful, but
the probabilities all point to
the fact that these 81 votes will
go into the republican column
and be added to the 270 now as
sured for Mckinley and Ho-
bart. We have the election and
will hold it. The opposition
have abandoned the east.

JUDGE WEST appeared before
a good sized democratic audi
ence at the opera house last
night to expOund the gold stan
dard heresy. The only thing
surprising about the Judge is
that he, as lifelong democrat,
should at this ripe age of his eX-
istence, turn against the party
of his heritage and become a
feeble instrument In the hands
of the republican aid society,
the party he has fought from
start to finish. The greatest
argument against the judge in
the role he assumed last night
was the fact that he could find
no argument to support him or
his false theories. He failed TO
score a point, and the audience
gave him to so understand. The
general verdict was that it was
a very weak effort in support of
still weaker cause.

Quay. Chairman Jones states
that in all the states classed by

he classes as doubtful the states

Temperance Folks In IaIip Mako II Warm
for DomInIe Wehater.

IsLIP. L.. l., Dec. 1.-THE Rev. William SIN
clair Calhoun Webster, who for eleven years
has beer the pastor OF the lslip Presbyterian
Church. Is Mt present at variance with n ma
Jority of the teachers OF the Sunday school on
the temperance question. An open rupture
WAS averted until q few days ago, when the
district Sunday School Convention was held.
The pastors OF the village were asked to attend,
but were not requested 10 take any part.
Dominic Webster accepted the invitation and
was among the first to arrive. He remained
quiet until the Rev. II. b. Munson delivered an
address on the lesson for next Sunday, which
refers especially to TEN perhnce. The speaker
did not make any pointed illusions TO the tenn
pcrance question. As he finished speaking Mr..
Webster sprang to his feet, excinlmlng:
~ wish to heartily endorse the manner in
which Brother Munson has conducted the les
son. His ideas arc right. do not believe In
this discussion OF he temperance question. For
my part. | consider that tho Church law which
comrels the sunday schools TO teach temper
ance lessons four Times u year Is all wrong,
AT the meeting OF the teachers last evening
there WAS an unusually large attendance OF
church and temperance, people. Teacher Cart
wright opened tnc meeting and alluded to the
lukrwArm cOoperatiun workers In the temper
ance cause received from those whose duty it
was to support the movement. He wac followed
by several pillars OF tho church, each of whom
declared that the pastor Ind failed to aid them
In then efforts To prevent intemporance from
Kbtllnk the upper manu-. W ~ lthIlt VI lFllp.
The pastor reiterated his remarks made at tho
Sunday School Convention that he considered
Ia the Sundni r,l.uo! during the year.
To these remarks John Z, Field, one OF the
choir leaders, r"pi,rGi les. you arc luke
our work in this direction. Only a short time
ago you said in your annual sermon on temper
arce, winch the Presbytery compels YOU TO
preach. that there wa, nothing In the Bible
which forbade the drinking OF wine, and that
there feFmcnteh wine WAS used at the Lords
supper. | want to tell you right here that n
young man who was present when YOU were
speaking. and had. through the fruits OF the
Local temperance workers.. been converted from
a life OF dissipation, after hearing your remarks
said II was all right to drink, and he soon re-
newed his life OF dissipation"
The charges against the pastor are likely TO be
continued By the local lodge of Good plars.
