The following letter from the we'll
known wool. dealer OF Boston, Fred.
Hartley. has been received In this city:
Morris H%orkheImer, Wheeling, ". Va.
DEAR SIR!--I was very glad to get
II. copy OF the letter you wrote 10 Mr..
langd0n, | think you VIII find that
free silver has received lta death blow
and will grow more unpopular every
day. When | think OF respectable
American people seriously considering
placing that boy Bryan In the presIden-
tial chair, I wonder II there Is not a
wave Of Insanity temporarily aiilIct-
Ing the minds OF our people. II IN not
entirely on account OF Dryan's youth.
but the fact that every time he opens
his mouth he dsplays'his ignorance,
inability and lncapacIty.
II Is like a firm wanting TO change
the management and promoting the Of
fee boy to the head and overlooking all
The tried statesmen and buyers.
Your farmers may have their trou-
bles, but Bryan II not the remedy. I
remember as u boy the first time | had
the toothache n mar told me he would
give me two remedies and they were
both sure cure. One was TO MI my
mouth with crenm and bang my head
against n stone wall until the cream
turned Into butter. The other one was
TO MI my mouth with water and sit on
the fire until the water boiled.
II we should get Bryan for President
We should be adopting n remedy sinh
lar to this latter one. We should all
have to admit the remedy was worse
than the disease. | try sometimes TO

would be and I really cannot place any
limit to the calamity. One panic Is
enough for a generation, but another
following on the heels OF the n We
have Just passed through will make
us a nation OF hypochOndri1cs. We
shall all be wanting to commit suicide.
| think voting for Bryan Is next door
to committing suicide. and / feel sure
the sober second thought OF our people
will turn towards our trusted leaders
who brought us into the front rank OF
commercial nations. rather than TO the
loud-mouthed takers who would drag
us down to the level Of China, Japan
and Mexico. The farmers have heard
too much OF one side and not enough OF
the other, and | am reminded OF a
verse | used to sing:
For the question OF the age divides.
Every question has two sides.
All that glitters is not gold,
One storyis good until anotheris told"
I hold that Il every gold man will
convert one silver man he will be doing
good work. So II you know OF any
prominent silver man who wishes TO
correspond with me. I Will place my
time against his until one or the other
Is converted.
Hoping you may find something in
this letter that you a use TO advant-
age. l am Yours truly.
F. HARTLEY.

| get an object lesson in seeing that ev-
cry time Bryan loses influence business
begins to expand, and every time he
seems to be gaining n little In popular

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN
Issued by the West Virginia Fiction Of the
United States Weather Bureau.

PARKERSBURG. w. Va, Aug. 25.-
Following Is the weekly report of II. l..
Ball, West Virginia section director Of
the United States weather bureau.
The wcather-The past week has been
one OF the coolest OF the summer. Dur
Ing the first half OF the week the tenn
perature ranged from 8 10 10 degrees per
day below the normal ami the average
departure for the week was rather more
than , degrees per day below the normal.
A short period OF hot sultry weather oc-
CURED on the end and 23rd, after which
the temperature again fell below the
normal. In the mountains the tsmpera-
ture approached very neal the frost line.
but none OF the correspondents note the
occurrence OF frostS.
The first part OF the week was without
rainfall and crops, especially grass,
showed the need OF moistcr. Abundant
showers occurred on the END and 23rd
and wer well distributed and answered
all the crop needs. The week as Il
whole was rather more cloudy than
usual but sufficient sunshine was re-
celved for the maturing crops.
Effect on the cropS-The cool weather
OF the past week was a great relief after
the severe heat which prevailed through
out the fore part OF the month, and all
correspondents make of the well
ONE change.
The harvesting of hay and oats has
been finished and now corn, buckwheat
and tobacco are the only standing crops.
Early corn Is ripeRlnE rapidly and the
entire crop promises to mature consider
ably earlier than usual. Reports upon
this crop show that It is the best and
heaviest OF any OF the years crops and
promises 10 be one OF the largest ever
raised In the state. Unless frost comes
unusually early the crop Is now safe
from Injury, except OF course, beating
down from storms, and will be housed
In September. Storms and floods have
done II great deal OF damage. totally de-
stroylng Il In some locations, but on the
whole 1t Is a magnificent crop.
Nearly the whole OF the potato crop
has been dug, and Is reported generally
rs very large and fine. The potato rot
reported In preceding bulletins, has dis
appeared.
The recent rains have been OF much
benefit to grass lands and fall pastures

PlouEh!nE for winter wheat is pro-
crossing very favorably. the ground be-
ing In excellent condition.
Fruit. vegetables, grapes and MELONS
are abundant. even TO overproduction.
The crop season Is rapidly closing.
Corn, buckwheat, fruit and late gardens
are now the only crops subject 10 injury
from weather changes, and these are
sufficiently well advanced &C insure good
yields. H. L. BALL,

SILVER nEN AT BtJNco.

In view of the unfounded de-
lusions in which great and wise
men have at sodie time believed,
it is not surprising that the
preachers of the gospel of moro
money, higher prices and curren-
cy imitation, should at first have
been eagerly welcomed by the
farmers, and in some States by
other classes as well. Did not
the farmer sell his products for
money, and was it not natural
that he should suppose that if the
stock of money was increased he
would receive more of ii? Could
not money be exchanged for
wealth, and was i1not therefore
evident that doubling tie volume
of money would double the total
quantity Of wealth? High author
tiles United States senatoss, con-
gressmen, etc.--beliesed, orpro-
fessed To believed, that the sim,
pie remedy of adopting cheaper
measure of value would abolish
poverty and make everybody pros
porous. So for a time the farm
ers accepted the promise of free
coinage as a means Of deliverance
from all their troubles. They are
now fn.ling out that they were
thevictims Of a big bunco game,
and when the time comes by their
votes they will express their opin-
ions Of tho men who deceived
them.

TAXATION.

the evil of indiscriminate taxation. The

Sea Coast Echo.
There is solid truth and justice g
in what The Echo says. The
spirit of our federal constitution
breathes equal burdens of taxa

same. Singing out special class

sonal property of an ornamental
nature is all wrong. The man
who sports a white shirt and q
diamond pin is no more a special
object of the taxing hand of the
government than the hickory
shirt and rice button of the less
fortunate. The Echo is right
when it lays down the principle
"that nothing except what a tax.
