In the fall of 1893 son of Mr.. T. A.
Mcfarland, a prominent merchant of
Live Oak, Sutter county, Calf, was
taken with very heavy cold. The
pains in his chest were SO severe that he
had spasms and was threatened with
pneumonia. His father gave him sew
eral large doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, which broke up the cough and
cured him. Mr.. Mcfarland says when

Chicago Grain Letter.

Lamson Bros. and Co.. grain letters by
private wire to the Alamo Brokerage Co.
2O3 Alamo plaza, San Antonio, Texas.
CHICAGO, Ills, June 6, '96.-Wheat:-
The past week has been the scene OF the
most remarkable activity in the wheat
market that the trade has experienced
for many months, probably not since the
excitement one year ago. Up to the fore
part Of Thursday session, the bears
seemed to have absolute possession Of
the market, and in the meantime de-
pressed the price Of July down to IS 3.s
per bushel. On Thursday the low point
Of the day was Sc Ia, since which time,
there has been an advance of rs cents
per bushel and Ia from the extreme
low price reached Monday. 1t seemed
to require the shaking out Of several long
lines before there was an upward tenden-
cy, and the manner In which longs liQui-
dated on the decline would seem to in
dictate that nearly every holder threw his
wheat overheard. Confidence In any ad-
vance having once been broken, II was
an easy matter for some Of the large pro-
fesslonsls, who had been short large
quantities, to cover their sales, and take
on liberal amount for long account,
thus several bulls being disguised with
the manner with which the mark ct had
slumped, took the short side around the
bottom, and were almost equally as
heavy buyers on the upturn, as they were
sellers on the decline. They found offer
ings however, very light, as professionals
were buying instead Of taking their pro-
fits, with the result that the past two
days have witnessed almost runaway
market. The advance however has not
been caused entirely by sentiment as
bullish news has played an important
part. This came largely In the way Of
state reports, indicating q low condition
Of winter wheat for the month just
passed. The decline also encouraged
foreign buyers. not only In q speculative
way, but for each account, and there has
been vast Improvement In the exp ort
trade. The northwest reports the largest
sales OF -four for the past As hours In the
barrels,
This, with the sales made earlier in the
week, swells the total to an amount that
is exceedingly satisfactory. Many trad
ers believe that the advance has been q
little too rapid, but the sentiment is ex-
tremely bullish, and IL is safe TO say that
the market next week will again be ex-
tremely active. The market for coarse
grain has been inactive, but little
higher In sympathy with wheat.
Market will probably be narrow unless
we get damage reports on the growing
crop.
Provisions; The latter part OF the
week were helped by the advance In
grain. and on good buying by shorts, and
outsiders. Packers however have been
sellers on the advance, which has had
a tendency to cneck much of rise.

A Horse For the ORPHANS.

the thanks OF the managers Of the Pro-
testant Home for Destitute Children of
this city are due Rev R. M. Hall, editor
OF the San Antonio Presbyterian, for his
earnest work In raising funds with which
to purchase a horse for that institution,
which he delivered to them last week.
About two months ago Rev. Hall be-
gan the work Of raising the needed
amount by selling shares at 10 cents
share and circulating them among the
Sunday schools Of the city. The older
people soon took it up and began to con-
tribute to the fund and the required
was amount soon raised.
The total sum realized was S4. SIS. The
horse was purchased for s35, thus leaving
balance OF 1855, which was turned over
to the management Of the home.

OIall our city INSTITUTIONS, our PUBIC
school system deservedly stands at the
head.
We can justly boast that our city
stands first in the list OF cities OF Texas as
apublic educator.
Our city has never been stingy when It
comes to supporting our schools. They
have willingly taxed themselves to build
school houses, and pay for the support Of
the schools.
fthe system has grown to be anywise
extravagant, yet the extravsgance Is
overlooked because of the results. II our
teachers and officers, and other en-
ployes are paid salaries for every month
In the year while schools only keep about
nine month, we think the money well
Kpent.
Our schools have grown too large, their
Interests too important to be longer de;
should be separated from this connection
as soon as possible.
There is too much favoritism, too much
dependence upon city politics In our
schools. The teachers and officers and
employees should be selected entirely on
account OF fitness, ability and faithful
ness in the discharge OF their duties.
There should be no pensioners upon the
public school roster. IL should not be
/. made an asylum for people who have
political pull, a hospital for the sick or
an asylum for the aged and infirm.
Every dollar paid by the people for the
support OF the public schools should be
fully earned; every child sent to the
public schools should receive the very
best service 1t Is possible for the peoples
money to purchase.
A school board separate from the polit-
ical machinery of the city government
should have charge Of the schools.
The commencement exercises Of the
high school evidenced the great interest
of the people in the success of this insti-
tuition. The graduating class was an
honor to our city; That such a large
institution is gratifying to every citizen.
1t has been discussed whether the
course prescribed in the high school is
not too severe. 1t may be-for 1t is in
evidence that private schools have been
reported to graduate pupils who have
found the high school course too steep to
overcome.
Our schools deserve the watchful care
of a school board not harrassed with all
the cares of the city government. Our
councllmen have to divide their attention
among hundred other interests, entire
ly foreign to education.
There should be no tenure of Office for
any employe of the school department

PRINCIPLES &BOVE SPOlLS.

Editor Nixon of the Silver State de-
clares how he stands on the Bryan
nomination, and calls on all friends
Of silver to unite and indorse Bryan.
He closes his address as follows:
We have for a standard bearer a
man that is irreproachable in charac-
ter, both private and public, and it is
a pleasure TO be a private in the ranks
which he commands. The Silver
State has always been for unity and
principle above party and spoils and
it is because of such sentiment tn at it
will follow the banner OF Bryan and
Sewell and the Democratic party.

LIKE OLD ABE.

Bryan has been liked by many to
Abraham Lincoln. His home is at
Lincoln, Nebraska. An exchange
says:
at Lincoln he was probably the
most popular mar in the town, and
his wife was everywhere admired
While a perfect polished gentlemen in
every respect. he had such a hearty
way about him that the cOmmOnest
citizen could reach him and was sure
Of a welcome. He knew nearly every
n In the country by name, and never
forgot a mans face, but was always
ready to call him by name and shake
his hand. He was a great deal like
Lincoln in this respect, but was too
friendly for the welfare of his purse,
for he was always fighting the legal
battles Of some friend who was toe
poor TO pay for his services.

LINCOLN AND Y

Our gold friends refer to the fact
that William j. Bryan, the nominee Of
the Silver Democrats for President,
was defeated W. years ago when he
vas the Joint candidate of the Popu-
lists and Democrat for United States
Senator, by John M. Thurston. The
silver men of all parties respectfully
refer the gold men to the other fact
that Stephen A. Douglas in 1858 de-
feated Abraham Lincoln for United
States Senator in Illinois. Two years
afterwards, in 1860, Lincoln was nom.
mated for President of the United
States and elected. Had he been
chosen Senator he would not have
been in the Presidential race. Now.
two years after Bryan's defeat for
Senator he is nominated for President
and his election is almost certain.
Many parallels may be drawn be
tween Lincoln and Bryan. Both were
Of and with the people. Each repre-
scented a principle in which the masses
were deeply concerned. The slavery
question agitated the country in Lin
coins time as the financial question
does in Blyan's time. The Wings
and Democrats dealt with the slavery
question as the Republicans and
Democrats have dealt with the fnan-
cial question, Lincoln was spurned
and ridiculed by the %plntocrats of
1860, as Bryan is scOrned and repu-
dated by the gold .oIigarchy 1896,
Lincoln ~emancipated the blacks and
saved the Union, as Bryan will eman.
cipate the whites ard save the country
from the rapacity Of the gold trust.

No silver was eve mined on earth at

silver touched 60 an ounce, hundreds

Brother Hogan, of the Plaindealer,
is very much disguised hat Populism
has conquered Democracy. The doctor
has an abiding hatred OF majority,
and is growing FESTIVE as the wave of
Populism under the disguise Of Dem
ocracy sweeps over the country. A
few more dispatches favorable to
Bryan and Sewell and the chances are
that brother Hogan will go back on
Popuiism since its principles seem
likely to become triumphant, and
this necessitates a majority Of the
