Bryan denies that he has offered
Altgeld the attorney generalship of
the United States. A general and
not a particular denial is what is
given. Giving Bryan the benefit Of
the doubt and admitting that Altgeld
is telling the truth when he says he
would take no Office under the gov
eminent, what a condition Of affairs
when it is necessary to deny that an
anarchist like Altgeld has been ten
dered the position Of attorney general
of this government. Could the human
Imagination conceive Of such a man
as legal adviser to a Mckinley admin
istration.

CROP REPORTS.

Chicago. August 6.-The following
appears in this weeks Farmers Re-
view: The Farmers Review has recei-
we'd reports from its correspondents
in Illinoise, Indiana, Ohio, Kansas
Missouri, Idaho, Nebraska, Wisconsin
Minnesota and the DakOtas on the
condition of spring wheat, oats and
corn. Since the reports of one month
ago the spring wheat in Kansas and
Nebraska has lost in condition. 1t
has been harvested in many places
but does not come up to expectations.
The oat crop in Missouri is poor, due
largely to the rust and hot wind.
Kansas shows a very poor crop.
The crop in Nebraska is very light.
In addition to the damage reported
last month, wheat has suffered from
drouth and hot winds and rotting in
the shock. Corn is doing well, the
late rains having generally benefited
it. Some counties report chinch bugs
numerous and from some counties of
the west come complaints of too lit
tie moisture, but these conditions are
not thought to have caused enough
damage to reduce the average for the
country.

is THE RIVER GOING DRY?

Translated from Texas Stats Zeitung
The San Antonio Express, the or
gan of the Waterworks company,
raised a great alarm the other day o.
yer the complaint made by Col.
Breckenridge that the river was going
dry and unless the city puts a stop
to using the water for irrigation
and shut up the artisan wells ex-
cept his own, the sewers could not be
flushed. The Express editorially lays
helow state of the river to the artesi-
an wells. There is any amount of ig-
norance displayed by the Express.
The river is no lower than when Col.
Breckenridge contracted to furnish
the sewers with water, providing the
city would make a new contract with
him; the river within the past few
months has been a foot higher than
it is today Notwithstanding the arti-
sian wells; if the wells tapped the So
URGE of the river they would be stu
ated above it's source and not away
below the fact is the artisan res
ervoir is far below the river and eX-
tends for hundreds of miles to the
north; but the Express is not pres
umed to know anything about geOl-
Ogy when it's favorite corporation
raises q cry or wall The fact is
that during the summer the two
great irregating canals take from the
river an extra quantity of water; the
river will regain its strength when
irrigation and the hot weather hold
up.
The river is as good as it was forty
or fifty years ago. And when the
sewers are finished and the private
sewers and filth traps are removed
and the bed cleaned, we can venture
to build a series of dams and thus Gre
ate a number of clear pools and blight
cascades and save the water for pub
lie use.
The wall of the water God is spu-
riOus.

The private and the public dispatch
es received from Cuba differ as far
as the statements of the Sewall and
the Watson crowds. The private dis
patches received from those who have
secretly reached American refuge are
to the effect that the insurgents are
not losing ground; also set
forth that active hostilities are
to begin in September and unite in
declaring that there is no lack of
unity among the insurgent chiefs.
Provisions are scarce in the Pinar del
Rio district, but not at Havana.
Among the arrivals is Lieut.. Velasco
of Gen. Zayas' staff and he denies
the report sent on. from Havana of
the death of that general, whom he
left on last Friday in the enjoyment
of his usual strength. 1t is also as
serted that 1000 negroes in Georgia
and Florida have been enlisted for the
Cuban war and that they will take
the field the last of this month. Pre-
paratiOns for successful transpOrta-
ton are already perfected.

1t is astonishing with what bitter
ness the Democracy of Louisiana, and
Democratic journals as well, that
have cursed the policy and the injus-
tice that withheld the sugar bounty,
laud and support the political party
that withheld it and curse the Repub-
licans by whom alone in the first
place the bounty was ordered and
through whom alone in the second
place the bounty was paid. There has
been not only no gratitude to the Re-
publicans on this account, but posi-
tive abuse of the party has continued
through all these years in which the
Republican party has been fighting
the battles of the sugar planters. In
this thing the Republican party has
shown a steadfast devotion to prin-
ciple that has defied the influences of
ingratitude, detractiOn and the most
bitter political hostility. No party
ever so nObly indicated its principles
and honesty of policy in the face of
such open encouragement.

Chairman Jones is quoted as au-
thority for the denial Of the assertion
that already a reaction against the
free silver craze has commenced. You

thority in that little real estate trans

the report of the compiler of the
Acts of the Apostles. No one took
Jones for a political simpletOn.

The latest that has developed is the
attempt to make Major Mckinley re-
sponsible for Census Porter. That is
more than any man should be called
upon to father. That horrible abOr-
ton damned the man who superin-
tended it's production and the infamy
ought to stop there. Mckinley is
about as responsible for that as he is
for the koran. There should be a lit
tie sense of the decencies of life even
in a Democratic campaign journal.

There is nothing in the situation to
lead any one to believe that the sound
money Democrats of New York intend
to take a header from the regulation
wharf. But it is just as certain as
death and election that there are
thousands of Democratic voters who
are not going to take chances on what
is going to happen after Bryan is
elected, and they will vote squarely
for Mckinley and Hobart.

There are some smarties among the
Democratic editors who imagine that
they can induce Mckinley to answer
their cartoons and false assertions by
pen and picture. These fellows it is
apparent have not taken the Mckinley
mans measure. Mr.. Mckinley does
not have to be guarded by political
chaperone to compel him to keep his
mouth shut, lest people should dis
cover how little he actually knows.
The campaign is young yet and when
the November day Of destiny dawns it
will be seen that the Ohio statesman
knows when to speak and what to
speak just as certainly as he knows
when and where to keep silence. This
is to be a campaign of education.
Bryan will be educated into the
knowledge of the danger of shooting
off his mouth.

The Louisiana sugar men are deter
mined to have Republican party of
their own, untramelled by any of the
old disputes or factions or racial diff
culties that have handicapped the
party of home production in that
state. They are no doubt the best
judges of the situation there. In any
event whatever ground they gain in
that state they will hold securely.

Jones has done one thing that has
hitherto been pronounced an impOs-
sibility, and that is to cork up the
mouth of the young man whom he is
coaching in this presidential race.
Bryan has come to see the need of
being thus corked but the efferves-
cling process is something tremendous
and when the string is cut the way
that cork will fly will beat double
barrelled back action tizz. Jones had
better look out when the cork flies.
There will be a bust.
