The maintenance of the gold stan
dard, the gradual retirement of
greenbacks and Sherman notes, and
the creation of banking system to
furnish credit facilities to all parts of
the country and to provide an elastic
circulation, comprise the principal
recommendations of the Indianapolis
monetary conference. The men
composing the conference are emf
nent and public spirited, and the
policy which they suggest will com
mand the attention of the country.
OF course there will be no two opin-
ions among honest money men about
the necessity of maintaining the gold
standard. On the other parts of the
programme, which are subsidiary to
this purpose Of defending the present
monetary standard. there win be diff.
ferences of opinion among sound
money people. We believe the grad
ual displacement of United States
notes Of al sorts by bank currency
which would combine the safety
which the present banking system
furnishes with the elasticity which it
never provided, would be desirable.

rency would be difficult, and the task
Of getting . majority Of the people to

Good For Kansas Wheat Raisers.

Good For Kansas Wheat Raisers.
With a good crop of wheat in Kan
sas this year the farmers will make
money out of their wheat. The
Australian crop of wheat is light, and
instead of selling twelve million
bushels of wheat this year that
country will have to buy five million
bushels. The wheat crop Of Aus
tralia for tho coming harvest is short.
So says United States Consul Bell,
at Sydney. in report to the state
department, and then he supplies de-
tails as follows:
''The crop year will end in April
next, for wheat. The crop falls so
short of the usual crop as to reduce
Australia from her position as the
sixth wheat exporter of about 49,
100000 bushels per year. Australia
will have to import not less than s.
100000 bushels to supply the def
cheney from short crops. This mis-
fortune to Australia will be of much
benefit to our people, not only be
cause the United States will supply
the chief part of the 5000, 900 bushels
deficiency, but because she will also
supply large part of the worlds de
ficiency caused by the Withholding
of the IL, OO0, 900 bushels usually fur,
nished by Australia.

There will be no setting of the sun
of Kansas ascendency SO long as her
hens continue to set, probably for the
reason that there is not room for two
such significant things to set at one
time. The Lawrence Journal says
that Kansas papers are all urging
their readers to cultivate more COWS.
Long columns of figures are printed
to show that COWS pay better than
wheat or corn. and that if the farmer
wants to get r1ch all he has to do is
to keep cows. Cows are all right in
their way, and this paper is a friend
to them, but for the amount of money
invested and for the work necessary
in taking care of her, the hen will
beat the cow in any game that they
sit down to. And aside from the
gross or net amount of money taken
in, the profits from the hen go by
custom and usage to the better half
of the household, where the money
will do more good than it will if the
"old man" gets his hands on it. We
do not care what others msy think or
say, but as for the Journal, It IL the
champion Of the Kansas hen, and
long may abe wave and set.-Eagle.

In Kansas there is some talk of q

WHEN TIE SULTAN ANeoEs1oIsPAHAN.

When the Sultan Shah Zaman
Goes to the city Ispahan,
Even before he gets so far
AS the place where the clustered palm
At the last OF the thirty palace gates,
The flower Of the harem, Rose-in-Bloom,
Orders a feast in his favorite room
Glittering squares of colored ice,
Creams and cordials and sugared dates,
Syrian apples, Othmanee ounces,
Lines and citrons and aprico,s
And wines that arc known to eastern
princes.
And Nublan slaves and smoking pots
or spiced meats and costliest fish
And all that the curious palate could
Pass in and out of the cedarn doors.
Scattered over mosaic floors
Are anemones, myrtles and Uolets.
And a musical fountain throws its Jets
OF hundred colors into the air.
The dusk sultana loosens her hair
And stains with henna plant the tips
OF her pointed nails and bites her lips
Till they bloom again but, alas, that rose
Not for the sultan buds and blows,
Not for the Sultan Shah Zaman
When he goes to the city lspahani
Then, at a wave of her sunny hand,
The dancing girls of SamarKand
Glide in like ships from fairyland,
Making sudden mist in air
OF fieecy wells and floating hair
And white arms lifted. Orient blood
Runs In their veins, shines IN their eyes.
And there, in this eastern paradise.
Filled with the breath of sandalwood
And Khoten musk and aloes and myrrh,
Sits Rose-in-Bloom on a silk divan,
Slipping the wines of Astrakhan,
And her Arab lover sits with her.
That's when the Sultan Shah Zaman
Goes to the city Ispahan.
Now when I see an extra light
Flaming. Pickering on the night
From my neighbor's easement opposite

/ know as well as a tongue can say.

Has gone to the city Ispahan.

z Certrzy CT Eismcmbcrment.

The Idle talk about the integrity of the
Turkish empire deceives nobody today.
Tho odismemberment of Turkey began over
100 years ago. In 1883 Turkey lost the
Crimea. In 1880 she lost Greece. In 1857
Moldavia and Wallachia, the two Danu-
bian principalities, were united, and finally
became the present flourishing kingdom
of Roumania under King Charles in 1881.
In 1862 the Turkish garrison evacuated
Belgrade, and in 1873 Servia became an
independent kingdom. Bulgaria is virtu-
ally independent under Prince Ferdinand,
and Turkey quietly acquiesced in the alb
sorption of eastern Roumelia in 1887. Kars
and Batum were snatched by Russia in
1878. England seized Cyprus in the same
year, and Austria was comfortably in
stalled in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Where
is the alleged integrity of the Turkish EN-
pire in the face of the above historical
facts? Bosnia and Herzegovina, two es-
sentially Mussulman provinces, have moth
ing in common with Austria, which now
rules over them.
But when the question of Crete ana
Greece comes to be considered, all Chris
tian Europe shakes with holy horror at the
unreasonable aspirations of Greece in seek
ing to free an island inhabited by homo
geneous population, protesting the same
faith and situated at its very doors. But
in this advanced era of civilization new
force, that makes for justice, is always
felt on occasions like this among civilized
nations, and that is public opinion.
While Lord Salisbury was declaring in the
house of Lords that Crete cannot be united
to Greece, 1e0 English Liberals were sign
ing q telegram of sympathy to King
George, and a monster meeting of 1000
Englishmen in Hyde park were passing
resolutions in favor of Greece.-Demetriu
N. Botassi, Grecian Consul General at
New York, in North American Review.

A Wall From O King.

Even king-if he doesn't happen to be
born in Germany or Spain-can learn
something from experience, and can final
ly appreciate that the motion of the world
carries royalty as well as other things
along with it. This possibility is illustrat.
ed in way at once amusing and pathetic
by letter which the consul general of the
Niger Coast protectorate recently received
from Mana, once q king of some eminence
as African kings go, but for several years
past sorrowing exile at Accra, with
nothing to do except to mediate upon the
disastrous results of what, for few days,
he thought was war with Great Britain.
''I used to think my country big" he
writes, land no man fit or able to touch
me- But have now been away from my
country nearly three years and have seen
the world, and know l have been very
foolish" He asks the consul to remember
that wisdom was not to be expected of q
man who had never left his native village,
and says that the first real instruction he
ever received was when the English man
of-war bombarded him. II learn big les
son now," the letter proceeds, "for 1 lose
all my cargoes, all my cash, all my houses,
and my town is now only sand and bush.
All my people are far away and many of
my family killed by the ship. thinA your
queen she punish me plenty. beg you,
consul, to ask queen to let me sit down for
my river before die. I swear I never do
wrong again, but will make small place
for trade in one river close for Sapele. l
hear queen have big play for this year be-
cause she live long past other king or
queen. beg you ask her to have mercy
ON me and pity my case" All this is de-
cidedly unkingly, but Mana confronts a
condition, not theory, as formerly and
shows good sense, If not heroism, by ex-
pressing desire to turn his royal mind to
trade.-New York Times.

Homes Under the Ground.

In the salt district in Cheshire, Eng
land, the brine has been pumped so con.
tinuously out of the earth that the land
has settled very considerably. The
houses naturally sink with the earth,
and in some of the streets in Northwich
only the roofs are visible. The houses
are inhabited, although the rooms are
underground. In a great many cases ad-
ditional stories have been added, SO that
by living in the upper rooms the resi-
dents may have some light and air. The
roadways sink, too, but are kept up to
the proper level by the government

Beware
OF the knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: "For six years I have been 4
sufferer from a scrofulous affection OF
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and st. Louis failed tc
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re,
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though lam
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had 1 only used your S.S.S. long ago,
would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $I5o."
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.
