Weekly Crop Bulletin.

The crop bulletin issued by the
Missouri Section, Climate and
Crop Service, Weather Bureau,
ior the week ending Saturday,
Sept. Sth, says:
The mean temperature of the
week ending Saturday, September
9th. was from l to . degrees be-
low the normal in the northern
portion of the state and about ]
degree above in the southern por-
ton. Quite heavy and much
needed showers fell in most Of the
south central and sou heaStern
counties on the 4th, and few local
tiles in other sections, but in most
of the central and northern coun-
ties the rainfall was vely light. In
few localities the showers were
accompanied by high winds which
blew off large quantities of apples.
Corn cutting is now in progress
in the northern counties and IN
many of the southern counties is
nearing completion. In the central
and southern sections there is
much late corn that will make
nothing but fodder, and consider
able has already been cut. In
many OF the northern counties late
corn is being held back by the cool
weather and viii require about
two weeks more to mature.
ssCottou, in the southeast, is
opening well, aud picking is in
full blast.
Fall blowing and seeding have
progressed well in some sections,
| ana IN q numOef OF cOuuIleS pow
ing is about completed, while in
other sections the work has been
greatly retarded by dry weather.
Rain is badly needed in many
counties, especially in the central
sections, both for seeding and for
ISL pastures, and good rain
would be beneficial in nearly all
sections.
Clover hulling is in progress
and a good yield is reported in
some counties while in others the
crop is very poor.

To Whom it rlay Concern.

AS the statement has been made,
and quite generally believed. that
in the event OF Bryan's election the
county will force the collection of
all county loans by foreclosing the
county mortgages, and as there
are persons who are trying to
make political capital out of this
erroneous statement, ] therefore
take this method of disabusing
the minds of the people Of this
false impression. In justice to
myself and the court, | will say
that we never said we would do
such thing, neither do / believe
we would nave any right, either
legal or moral to do such a thing.
Trusting that this explanation
will be satisfactory to all concern
ed, ], in all candor, submit the
same for your consideration.

COUNTY TICKET

idSl
The Bryanites will hardly
call John M. a "holy Palmer.
The prospect of Republi-
can victory has never produced a
business panic in this county.
Tangled as it is over the
units, the Democratic arithmetic
can not do much with the millions
Uncle Sam remembers the
confidence game of 1892 too well
to invest in the silver brick this
year.
The Republican platform
stands for the free coinage OF
American muscle into honest
wages.
Bryan has not yet shaken
the credit in the silver dollar, but
he has talked the metal in it down
to 81 cents.
He seems to have been cor.
rect who said "speech is silver. y
The silver part of this campaign
is Just about all speech.
1t is probable that every
tramp came out for Bryan as soor
az he heard some man say thai
free silver will not work.
Bend sales in time of peace
a<s not q new Democratic expert
ence. Remember Buchanan and
his dickering at II per cent.
1t hardly covers the ground
to speak of the Vermont election
as political straw. 1t is really
the first sheaf in the shock for q
young man named Bryan.
The prospect of a Republi-
can victory has never driven the
money out of the channels of busi-
ness into the vaults and stocking
legs of the country
Indiana is a great State
Besides being the home of Lew
Wallace and James Whitcomt
Riley, it had room for the only
big Democratic convention held
this year.
"A Populist contemporary
recommends "sound reasoning
on the financial question. After
the election he will be surprised te
note how much of that same rea-
soning the country has done.
The indianapolis platform
is pretty solid ON the money ques
ton. If the boy crater is going t.
sustain his reputation for figures
he will work the Gibraltar idea
over for an allusion to it in al
early speech.
The Bryanites contend tha
silver has not fallen, but that golt
has risen. Virgins would as vel
indorse this new philosophy ant
declare the great lakes are moi
drying up, but that the shores are
steadily growing higher.
This country has been
virtually on the gold basis since
1884. If any man wants to learn
how rutnlessly silver was stricken
down in 1873, he should institute
search for silver dollars coined
between that date and 1884.
The "crime of 1878" would
be better campaign thunder, il
Stewart, who is backing Bryan
with his millions, had not worked
for it in a speech in Congress
favoring the gold standard. Such
facts are knocking the props from
under the tottering silver bun.
combe.
A short time ago the Kans,
as City Times remarked, "The
Republicans are even trembling
for Vermont The Times was
wrong as usual. The Republicans
knew the crowd would be large
one, but never doubted for mo-
ment that there would be room
enough to avoid accidents.
Mark Twain evolved a
criminal character who lay in
prison sixteen years before he
thought of making hole in the
rickety structure and walking off.
Mark must have studied some of
the spurious statesmen who are
now busily discovering the over
shadowing tragedy of 1873.

Medical society.
DR.. w. F. Grier Of 176 West Eighty-seventh
street had not received official notice up to
midnight last night of his expulsion from
the County Medical Society. The officers OF the
society refused to specify why DIR. Grier was dis
missed, merely saying that 1t was on account of
unprofessional conduct. DR.. Avery. the Secre-
tary OF the society. said that DR.. Grier's dis
missal did not In any way reflect on his char
acter, but that it was due to an infraction of the
rules of the organization.
DIR. Grier said last night that the unprofes-
sional conduct with which he was charged was
in connection with Il case of appendicitis which
he was called to attend on July u. ls0J. The
physician in charge Of the case. DR.. Gricr SAID,

the doctor a friendly turn. but on Aug. II he
was notified by DIR. L. Is. Bronson that the young
man had charged him before the society with
having attempted to %supplant him as the family
physician.

DR.. Avery. The next he heard about the matter
he learned from the newspapers IN Tuesday.
DR.. Grier says that he has incurred the enmity
of a portion OF the society by treating patients
at his private clinic. and that to-day he will
consult u lawyer about bringing suit against the
society for damages.
