Newcastle, but it is a fact. One steamer
cleared few days ago with 1850 tons of
wheat for Calcutta. 1t is we'll known that
Argentine increased her production of
wheat from 80, 100000 bushels in 1891 to Co.
100000 in 1895. Russia, including Poland,
North Caucasus and Finland, has increased
her wheat production from 25S. 900 BUSH
els in 1891 TO S76SS5. 900 in 1895.
the high price of wheat in this country
between 1870 and 1850 was largely due to
European wars, first. between France and
Germany and next the Russo-Turkish war.
In the United States the wheat crop Of
1870 was 600 bushels; in 1891 Gil. .IS0, 600
bushels, in 1892. ol5,0i9.0G0 bushels: in 1885,
46', ,loS.oD bushels. The corn crop of 1894 in
the United States was LIE, ,T0.952 bushels.
In 1885, 2.l5l, 5l,lS1.5So bushels, and We have
another very large crop this year. The
potato crop in the United States for 1894
was l1o.IS1,SSS bushels, and the price of
potatoes was very good in that year.
In 1895. however we raised 2s7 2e337 $40 bushels
and have this year another very large
crop. The price has fallen. and the reason
can be easily found. Silver has nothing
whatever TO do with it, nor with the prices
of corn. wheat. cattle or any other proiuc-
ton. The price of cornfed cattle in Gin
cinnati in July, 1913, was S. per cwt; in
July, 1853. 500; July. 1873. $3.50; July. 1883.
$50: July. 1891 s460: in October, 1896. in
Kansas City, a.6S. Prices of hogs in Gin
cihhau In July, 1881, was S2D per cwt.; in
January, 1850, $500. and the price fell to
$40 in July, 1860. In 1880 the price was
si.i7 per cwt: in 1890. 1910. and in October.
1896. at the Kansas City stock yards, about
| S. 80 per cwt.
| There has been decline in the price
of merchandise of every kind. Linseed oil
which was worth in 1879 from so to co cents
a gallon. and since then has been as high
as so cents a gallon. has sold as low as

of silver and wheat was worth $l.25 a
bushel. In 1895 We had over s60OOOO.O0O of
silver and wheat was worth about so cents
a bushel. Within the last two or three
weeks wheat has advanced Is cents BUSH
el and silver has declined cents an ounce.
So that the assertion which has been made
by our silver friends that a decline in
wheat follows decline in silver does not
hold good. The causes for the advance
in wheat are natural; there Is a shortage
in the crop in India, owing to a severe
drouth in the northern and eastern por-
tons of that country, which has become
one of our greatest competitors IN wheat
growing. Wheat now goes from India to
England through the Suez canal. which
has cheapened and quickened transporta-
ton. The cost of production of a bushel
of wheat in India is about l3 cents. wages
there being from to 10 cents day. Re-
Gently 10000 tons of wheat have been en-
gagged at San Francisco for shipment to
India; this seems like carrying coal to

When Mr.. Horton arose TO speak he was
greeted with rousing cheers.
Mr.. Horton said:
few days ago. in a speech at Kansas
City. General Howard stated that or that
morning he had had very pleasant inter-
view with Confederate soldier and in
that connection mentioned having been on
an ocean steamer a number of years ago

pecting the ship TO go to the bottom, and
they there unbosomed themselves to each
other, becoming warm friends. He also
mentioned that General Sherman and Gen.

very close personal friends; and when Cen

Christian soldiers empty sleeve appealed
with a mute eloquence more powerful than
words for peace and good will between
iiferent sections OF our country, and
among all its people. Fortunately, in this
canvass the personal character OF the can
sidates is above criticism. The only ques-
lions we have 10 consider are the platforms
and policies of the different parties. This
we should do dispassionately, as we have
q common interest; We all love our coun-
try and it's institutions and wish only for
what II best.
THE money question has been the con-
and his friends tell us that gold has ap-
preciatsd. In the years 1868 and 1870 We
paid for our railroad iron out here from
Si25 to $40 per ton. We can buy steel rails
to-day for SIS per ton. Has iron deprecated
or has gold appreciated? In 1890 aluminium
was worth about 500 pound-nearly six
times as much as silver. Through cheapened
methods Of extraction the same metal can
be bought to-day for 80 cents pound A

But, notwithstanding they are now in tho city itself, there are few lots for sale yet lat prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine" of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new elec- trio car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property. Inside of five years this will be business property.

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the New Discovery
for Curing Dyxpepsta.

The Rev. f. i. Bell, a highly-esteemed
minister residing in Weedsport, Cayuga
county, n. Y, in recent letter writes
as follows: There has never been any
thing that 1 have taken that has re-
leved the Dyspepsia, from which l have
suffered for ten years. except the new
remedy called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Since taking them 1 have had no dis
tress at all after eating, and again after
long years can sleep well. Rev. +. /.
Bel. Weedsport. n. Y, formerly Idalia.
Col.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a re-
markable remedy. not only because II Is
a certain cure for al forms OF indiges-
ton. but because Il seems to act as tho
roughly in old chronic cases of Dys-
pepsia as well as in mild attacks Of In
digestion or biliousness. A person has
dyspepsia simply because the stomach IS
overworked. all II wants Is harmless.
vegetable remedy to. digest the food, and
thus give II the much-needed rest.
This is the secret Of the success OF this
peculiar remedy. No matter how weak
or how much disordered the diges-
ton may be, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest the food whether the stomach
works or not. New life and energy Is
given not only 10 the stomach. but to
every organ and nerve in tho body. A
trial OF this splendid medicine viii con-
vince tho most sceptical that Dyspepsia
and all stomach troubles can be cured.
The tablets are prepared by the Stuart
Chemical Company, OF Marshall, Mich.
but so popular has the remedy become
that Stuarfs Dyspepsia Tablets can now
be obtained at any drugstore at b0c- per
package. Send fer book OF stomach d.
