TELLER REFUTEs THE CHARGE
Says Western States Are Loyal and
Devoted.

Denver, Aug. Ex-senator Teller deliv-
cred an address at the annual reunion of
the Colorado pioneers, in the course OF
which he said:
when [ hear that certain men have
spoken of the west as undesirable states,
and when I think Of what we have done
here for the organization, law and the
maintenance of government, 1 can not
but feel that he who was the utterer of
those words is slanderer of the best
people in the land. Every hour of our
history was marked by devotion to law,
loyalty to the constitutional government
and obedience to the highest mandates
or the constitution, and the community
will compare with any community on the
face of the earth"

SENATOR TELLER'S VIEWS
THINKS THE SILVER CANDIDATES.
SPEECHES UNPARALLELED.
SDcech of Acceptance Has Not Yc
Been Answered, Though Sew
eraI Made AN Attempt.

Salt Lake, Aug. 3O.-A special to the
Tribune from Denver, Colo, says:
Senator Teller, in an interview today
on the campaign, said:
mo man since 1 have been acquainI-
ed with public affairs, and that is now
nearly 90 years, has ever made such
campaign as Bryan is now making
Greeley in 1872 and Blaine in 1884 made
a series of speeches concerning the Is
sues of that day that were considered
remarkable exhibitions of originality
and versatility. HARRISON also, dur
ing his first campaign. in 1888, achieved
quite reputation, and it was deserved,
for the speeches. ne made to the delega-
tons visiting him.
But the speeches of none of them
are to be compared for originality,
clearness Of statement, appropriate
ness of Illustration and general COM
prehensiye character OF the discussion
of the questions at issue with those
that Bryan has made since his nomlna-
ton. When the conditions under which
they have been made are considered,
even his enemies must recognize the
wonderful ability of the man.
His speech of acceptance, first ridl-
culed by those opposed to him, is final
ly admitted to be a great speech. The
prudent and sensible men among his
opponents demanded that it should be
answered with argument and not l!dl-
culed. This BOurke Cochran attempt
ed to do in a speech full of everything
but argument and logic; but l don't
believe there is a fair-minded man IN
the country who will jeopardize lis
reputation for fairness by saying he
did answer it. a distinguished news
paper correspondent declared that he
republican party had no man who
could answer it, and SO far no repub-
lican has attempted it, and the failure
of Cochran proves that the boiling
democrats had no man who could.
mckinley has not answered it in
his letter of acceptance, although It is
quite apparent that his letter was IN
tended to be an answer.
THE democratic candidate has Ger
tainly acquitted himself to the salts
faction of his party friends who bell
in the Chicago platform. 1t was not
expected that his speeches would
please the republicans or the gold
standard democrats, and it was under
stood by all his supporters that de
traction, misrepresentation and SLAM
der would be resorted to by his opDo-
nents to destroy their effect, if posi-
BILE. But that can not be done The
people who hear him can not avoid be-
ing impressed with the wonderful
grasp he has of the subjects discussed,
and the sincerity with which he pre-
sents his views.
"On the whole" concluded Senator
Teller this is likely to be one of the
most memorable campaigns ever made
in this country, and no matter what
the result Of the election may be, the
influence of the campaign will not
cease with the election. The silver
question is bound to be settled at the
coming election or in the near future"

Gr.ut's Gratitude.

II think i carry with me the finest
proof Of Grants love and gratitude OF
any man living" said Col. William Bar
nard Of st. Louis. He opened his pocket
book and drew out two worn and
creased papers; one, q blank check
signed Ulysses s. Grant," the other.
q few lines scrawled on a torn bit from
q memorandum book, to the effect that
"the within is good up to $4,000" and
signed Grant"
Then Col. Bill" told his story:
Years before he had been a rich man,
and there came time when the young
infantryman got into trouble through
no great fault Of his own. but through
that faculty for trusting people which
never left him In all the after years.
He needed some money, and needed it
badly. yet he was too proud to ask any
one Of his wife's relatives or family
connection to loan him the amount.
As he afterward expressed it when
talking over the affair with Col. Bill"
who had been one Of his best friends
from the time he courted Miss Julia,
he was lin a devil Of a fx."
Without knowing very much about
the complications. but receiving an in
timation from an officer stationed at the
same fort, the colonel sent the sub
altern an untitled check with instruc-
lions to use II he needed it. Grant did
use it. and labeled and filed away the
little debt Of gratitude he was to owe
for many long day. Col. Bits" for
tunes fell with those of hundreds Of
others in the city on the banks OF the
big river, but always, in some unob-
trusive way. q chance was given him to
recoup, and without becoming wealthy
again he kept lin comfortable circum-
stances"
Parties knowing the intimate rela-
tons existing between the successful
general and the colonel besought him
time and again to go with them into
certain gigantic schemes that needed
only the tacit consent and protection
Of Grant to make every man among
them a multi-millionaire. Once the
colonel hunted up Grant down in the
jungles" Of the southwest and told him
how he was being 'pestered to death"

the passage of the act these negroes

Some Fixures ON Chaeae.

=
In a recent report Major H. E. Al
word. Of the United States Dairy Di-
vision, says:
Nine-tenths Of the cheese produced
in this country is made in the states of
New York. Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois.
Vermont, Iowa, Pennsylvania and
Michigan, ranking in the order named.
The New York product alone is almost
one-half the total, and this state and
Wisconsin together make over two
thirds Of all made.
It requires the milk Of about one mil
lion cows to mako the cheese annually
pressed in the United States.
The value Of the annual cheese prod
uct Of this country varies from $780,
000. 900 to $25, 000. 900.
About s.000.o00 pounds Of cheese are
imported annually into the United
States.
The rate Of consumption Of cheese In
America is about three pounds per
capita per annum.
Consumption Of cheese is apparently
somewhat decreasing.
Good cheese is approximately com.
posed of one-third water, one-third
milk fat, and one-third casein, with
some sugar and ash.

previous to battle, he had traded a
packet Of quinine to a confederate SOL
der for a pipe of tobacco and Curl
ously carved pipe. These exchanges,
he said, were frequently made. The
northern soldier often traded tea and
coffee for tobacco.
AS he told about the quinine and pipe
episode, another of the Americans, a
tall, gray-whiskered man, wearing .
SLOUGH hat, seemed deeply interested.

PRIVATE CREAMERY

The party from whom we recel'eu
these figures makes this notation:
Farmers, please examine the above
carefully, and see how much you have
lost or gained who have sold to the
above creameries."
Taking the whole year through, 1t
will be seen that the average PAID Dy
the cooperative creamery is only 212c
less than that paid by the creamery
utilizing skim milk for filled cheese.
Any farmer that will sell his skim
milk for the purpose Of making filled
cheese at an average of 21ac per hum
dred, is certainly lacking either IN
good judgment or sound business
sense: and has never understood the
value of skim milk, even for fertiliz-
ing purposes. He would make more
money by dumping the milk on the
ground or any place where he raises
either fruit or vegetables, than to sell
It at the rate of 212c per hun bred.
This shows how the makers of filled
cheese have been humbugging the
farmers, telling them that they were
receiving SO large an amount per hum
dred for their skim milk over and
above what they could get were they
selling their milk to creameries where
filled cheese was not made. Ever
since the passage Of the filled cheese
bill we have heard the cry that the
farmers were going to lose a large
amount Of money by its passage, be-
cause the factory men who made filled
cheese could afford to pay so much
more for their milk. We have no
doubt but what they could afford to pay
much more for the milk when they
manufacture filled cheese and sell it as
It has been sold for the last Ave years.
But that they did pay this advanced
price for the milk where they manu-
facture filled cheese Is not a fact; and
they have been humbugging the farm
srs at their expense, and making a
great deal Of profit out Of the manu-
facture Of the fraudulent article.-El-
gin Dairy Report.

MildsW on Peas.

MuOeW ON feoS.
Late peas. especially when grown
in damp ground, are often CO badly
widowed that it is not worth while
growing them. The pea mildew is one
of the powdery mildews. Erysiphe
communis. belonging to the same
family as the powdery mildew of the
grape. 1t grows entirely on the sur
face Of the host plant. covering it with
white coating of delicate interwov-
en- fungous threads. At certain points
protuberances appear on threads
which serve as suckers, drawing from
the cells the nourishment required for
the growth Of the fungous. The spores
are produced in delicate sacs which
in turn are enclosed In dark colored
spore cases. The latter appear as
black specks just visible to the naked
eye among the fungous threads. The
disease attacks leaves, leaf-stalk, nod
and stem SO that the pea plant is thor
oughly infested with it, much to the
detriment Of its growth. FREQUENT
cultivation or irrigation will do much
to hold the disease in check, but the
use of some fungicide will be desira-
BILE upon late varieties in hot, dry sea-
sons. Among the best for the purpose
is solution of one pound of copper
sulphate in 500 gallons Of water.
