For the first 23 days OF June the
shipment OF butter from Miller was
in round numbers $4,000 pounds, or
the neat sum of $500. There are
ten points from which the dairy pro-
duct of this county is shipped, viz:
Rec Heights, Miller, st. Lawrence,
Washington, Tulare, Redfield, Zell,
Rockham, Miranda, Orient. The
four points first named will ship oyer
10000 pounds in June. 1t is safe to
estimate n like amount from all the
other points, making Il grand total
OF 10000 pounds, which, ut an
average of ten cents amounts to
$4,000 for the month from Hand
county d~airies. For the five wheat
sowing, growing and harvesting.
months, this output amounts to $50
600. Quite a wheat crop! Yes, the
COW is an important factor, and
since she has come in there is an alb
sence OF that feverish anxiety based
upon the turn of n wheat crop.

The Parkston Advance properly
calls attention to the fact that some
of our large state school fund may
as well be invested in our own state
bonds. The state has outstanding
over 100000 in bonds, upon which
we pay siXsper cent interest to east
ern capitalists. This interest, state
laws permitting, could be earned by
our own school fund, and practically
saved for use in the state. The next
legislature should look into this
matter.

The greatest peace-battle OF the
century has been fought, and the
people have won a signal victory
over politicians in the nomination
OF VIM. Mckinley. 1t is a victory OF
the masses, particularly the great
laboring element of this country,
whose regard for and endorsement
OF Mckinley has led to the most
complete nominating victory in the
party's history. Again are the peo-
pie to be congratulated in the Ian,
guage OF Lincoln, you cannot fool
all the people al the time"

The populist boss Taubeneck, who
looked on at the st. Louis conven-
ton is what the boys call an easy
mark" He and a few OF his lieuten-
ants have issued a manifesto in which
he says the republican nominations
and platform were the wOlk of dicta-
ton and bossism OF the worst kind.
Then a little further along he tells
his people to endorse Teller and free
silver, and calls his own bOssism and
dictation patriotism!

The republican national platform
pledges the republican party to work
for an international agreement for
the use of both gold and silver.
When the republican party pledges
itself to do a thing, it means some
thing will be accomplished. For
proof, read the history of this coun-
try.

This little % silver bolt out of q
convention OF over 900 is not a very
serious matter. True, a few persons
n unduly excited about it, but
they're built that way! What swept
this country for Mckinley? What
has made his name a~household word
in the land? Why are the laboring,
wage earning men ofthis country al
most a unit for Mckinley? Why are
the business men all over this broad
land demanding his election as presi-
dent? Why does no prominent DEM
Ocrat want to III against him? Is
it on account OF silver? Well, hard
ly. Silver is scarcely associated in
the minds of the people at oil with
Mckinley or the popular waye de,
handing his election. If this or any
other state was crazy over silver
why didnOt some republican delegate
some where on earth favor Teller for
president? The great wave of pOpu-
lar enthusiasm which has spread
over this country for Major Mckin-
ley is the association OF his name
with a protective tariff law, which
the people believe will bring the coun-
try prosperity.

The western senators, Teller, Du-
bois, Pettigrew and Cannon, have
withdrawn from the republican par
ty because the party would not n
dorse their idea OF silver coinage at
the ratio of 16 to /. This action
upon their part is to be sincerely re-
GREETED, but it will make less differ
nee to the party thanto themselves,
and it weakens their cause OF silver.
However, no one doubts their priyi-
lege to leaye the party ifthey choose,
but they will be surprised at the
small number, even of their personal
friends who follow them. The great
bulk OF the republican party at this
time is opposed to free coinage, ana
considers other principles OF the par
ty equally important. Perhaps they
are right. Time alone will tell. At
any rate, it seems to us the place for
republicans is in the republican par
ty, whether they be for silver orgold.
There are many questions for the
people to settle, and the country
practically admits that republican
protection is one of the most import
ant.
This writer would like to see the
coinage OF American silver tried, and
as VT have no hopes or ambitions to
crafty, no possible way OF reward,
we can claim to be Just as honest in
our humble opinion as the silver Sen
atOrs. But we can only consider
their act in leaving the party Il very
foolish one. Suppose there ever AZ
riyes a time when the tables will be
reversed. Suppose in future wisdom,
by the work of silver republicans,
the Larty endorses silver, and the
gold republicans leave the party on
account of that one featured What
mule-headed RADICALS they would be
called! No, the republican party,
with its share OF human error, as all
parties have, has nevertheless done
more for this country, and will do
more for American people, than any
other organization known OF man.

The doctor may be good old man, but
even if so, medical examinations and the
"local-application" treatment are abhor-
rent to every modest woman. They are
embarrassing useless. They should
not be submitted to until everything else
has been tried. In nine cases out of ten,
there is no reason for them. In nine cases
out of ten, the doctor in general practice
isn't competent to treat female diseases
They make branch of medicine by them
selves. They are distinct from other all
ments. They can be properly understood
and treated only by one who has had years
of actual practice and experience in this
particular line. This is true of DIR. X. V

That Catarrh is a Local Affection

OF the membrane of the nose, throat, etc.
is a fact established by physicians, and this
authority should carry more weight than
assertions of incompetent parties, who
claim that catarrh is blood affection, in

Ely's Cream Balm is a local remedy, COM
posed of harmless medicants and free of
mercury or any injurious drug. 1t will
cure catarrh, Applied directly to the in
famed membrane, it restores it to its
healthy condition, atiording quick relief
and a cure after short continuance.

MONROE. Mr.. Allen Larrabee died last
week, aged &C years. He was sick nearly
two years. He leaves wife and large
family of children. He was soldier and a
pensioner, but the family have always been
in destitute circumstances. .... Mr.. Elijah
Morse, who was at work in the woods up
river, had his hand so badly bitten by dog
that he was obliged to come home 1t
should have read last week that Eugene
Curtis was visiting his brother. Will Curtis,
instead of Carter. Nelson Curtis, Jr., is
sick with pneumonia. His father has just
recovered from the same disease. Mrs.
Wealthy Bates, who arrived at her sisters,
Mrs. Ritchie's, about two weeks ago will
spend the winter; which is very pleasant for
Mrs. Richie. Some people from this viii
lage went to Brooks to attend the Masonic
public installation and took supper at the
Briggs House. Fred Coffin went to Boston

County Commissioners Convention.

The county commissioners of Maine met
yesterday in Bangor for their second annual
convention. The first of these conventions
was held in Augusta last year. The object
of the meetings is the discussion of the va
rious matters of Importance with which the
commissioners have to deal. Among the
questions for discussion at Bangor will be
the law passed by the last Legislature re-
lating to taxation of wild lands, which re-
quires county commissioners to make an in
ventory of the real and personal property in
all unincorporated places and assess the an
nual tax thereon, and to appoint collector
who turns the collections over to the county
treasurer and thence to the State. It is
tedious, laborious and difficult job for the
commissioners, and the State gets what little
money is collected while the counties have
to bear the expenses. The commissioners
would like to have this law repealed.
