A new source of revenue is to be
opened to the farmers of America,
and especially to those of the east
ern and middle States, is the
European demand for apples,
which is growing rapidly. Last
year $4,000 barrels were exported,
while the exports this year already
amount to more than 100000 bar
rels. The fruit brings good prices,
but only the best of it can be sold
in competition with the foreign
product.

everything in their power to make

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being constitu.
tional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
TEN, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing it's
work. The proprietors have SO much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list OF
testimonials.

What A Bishop SAYS.

At Macomber, Illinois, Bryan spoke as
follows:
81 want to call your attention to an ar
ticle that appears in Yesterday mornings
Chicago Chronicle. | waited until today
before using it, thinking that possibly this
mornings paper might make a correction
and when | speak of it | want YOU to un-
derstand that if there be a subsequent
denial of the language used then all | say
about it shall fall to the ground. 1t is an
interview published Yesterday morning
and a dispatch from New York giving an
interview with Bishop Worthington of
Omaha: Let me read you what he says
"When it was suggested to the Bishop
that the farmers throughout the country
were not in as prosperous a condition as
they had been in the past, Bishop Worth
ington said: The trouble with the farmer
in my judgment, is that we have carried
our free educational system entirely toe
far. The farmers sons, a great many OF
them, who have absolutely no ability to
rise, get a taste of education and follow il
up. They will never amount to anything
that is, many of thein-and they become
dissatisfied to follow in the walk Of life
that God intended they should and drift
into the cities. 1t is the over-education OF
those who are not qualified to receive i,
that fill our cities while the farms lie idle.
81 say, my friends, l hope it may prove
that these words were not issued by Bis.
hop Worthington."

Letter From Ohio.

Judge G E. Mack received the follow
ing letter a few days ago:
CONVICTION, Ohio, October II.
My Dear Mr.. Mack:-Yours of the
9TH instant came to hand during my alb
sence from home, hence my seeming de-
lay in answering. l am not in possession
of any inside information, and can only
give IN opinion based upon the surface
indications of this section of the State.
The sentiment in favor of Bryan is very
strong and growing rapidly in this part of
Ohio. If the balance of the State does &C
cordingly, he will carry Ohio without
doubt.
| was told, within a day or two, by a
gentleman that ough to be fairly we'll in
formed that the goldbugs had completed
their third poll of the State, and that it
showed them about 1900 short; and that
as a result, they were bringing into the
State all the speakers they could, in the
hope of stopping or turning aside the ST.
yer tidal wave that seems to be sweeping
the whole State, What will be the eff
feet is a question.
The signs point to Bryan carrying Ohio,
which is almost too much to expect in
view of the fact that our State has been
giving the Republicans from $4,000 to
$4,000 majority. With kindest regards 1
remain fraternally,

A REPUDiATiONIST.

The Carson correspondent of the Genoa
Courier puts it in this way:
1t pains my ears to hear men pirate
about honest money, national honor, and
call others repudatlonists and anarchists,
whose score is a clean record of dishonesty
and reputation in the ordinary affairs of
life. 1t is not dishonorab!e to be in debt
it the condition has been Drought about in
could not avoid. But for a man h
draws and has drawn for many years an
official salary of $1,000 or more per year,
to be in debt, and p~ostponing his creditors,
and making them suffer, and dep~iving
himself of the ability to pay, as Major
Mckinley has done, and who will never
paw unless he gets to be President of the
United States, l say it is downright theft.
Br, an has lived on a salary of about ST.
500 a year and kept out of debt, and he is
called dishonest and anarchistic. Mckin-
ley, with a salary of p~rincely proportions,
is SOC, 900 in debt, and he PIRATES about
honesty and honor. These facts brand
hin as a practical repudationist and anar
chistic. No honest man will allow him
self to get in such financial straights. A
man who does not live within his means
drawn upon others for the rest, and il
getting something for nothing is anarchy
that is anarchy and reputation combined
