The Pennsylvania republican state con-
vention heartily endorsed the administration
OF Pres. Mckinley. Among the planks In
the platform are the following:
I'VE rejoice with the people upon the
passage of the Dlngley tariff bill. Its en-

republican party to our manufacturing, COM

The first fall on the Mingan is about three
miles from the mouth. 1t Is forty-six feet
high, in three pitches about equal In height
and with seething pools between. The
spawning beds Of the salmon are ON broad,
gravelly bars far up the river. They must
surmount this fall once year in order to
reach them. We camped on sandbar be-
low the fall, and watched the struggle. The
broad pool below the fall was so full of these
royal fish. that their tails and dorsal fins
could constantly be seen sticking out of the
water Every minute one or more fish
would make rush from the depths below,
spring far into the air, every fibre culver
ing, and time after time fall back, only the
most powerful and determined occasionally
succeeding in passing the first pitch. Above
that, every nook and crevice in the rocks
where the salmon could obtain resting
place, was crowded. Great monsters they
were, weighing from twenty. five to forty
pounds. How they ever made the second
and third pitches do not know, for there
was not the good starting chance that they
had in the deep hole below the first Pitch

A Knock Out for Bryan.

Fifty million bushels is the estimate for
the wheat crop of Kansas. This is the
largest crop since 1891 or 1892. The corn
crop will be what is called fair one in that
state, and there are $4,000 900 bushels left
over from last year. The average yield of
potatoes is over twenty-five bushels to the
acre, which will make crop of $4,000, 600
bushels. For the first time in many years
Kansas really has fine crop of most agri-
cultural products, and the farmers are hap
py. More than that, they are paying off
their mortgages and taking care Of back in
terest, which the east never expected them
to do. Politics has almost disappeared in
the face of the goodness Of Providence in
sending such crops to reward the farmers.

Ex-Gov. Horace Boies Is the acknowledge
ed leader of the democracy Of Iowa, and
was at one time the leading candidate for
the presidential nomination last year. He
supported Bryan and the Chicago platform
OF late he has had decided change of
views upon the silver issue. In opening
the democratic state campaign at Marshal
town last week he referred to the money
question as follows:
"Under circumstances as they now exist,
with silver demonetized by the great COM
mercal countries of the globe, with the
frightful chasm that separates the CONNER
cial value of the metals constantly widen
ing, and in the light of our own recent ma
tional election, cannot bring my mind to
believe that the free coinage of silver at the
ratio Of 16 to with gold is within the reach
of its friends. nor can l help the fear that il
would not be desirable even II attainable.
have never been able to say and cannot
now say that know free coinage at such a
ratio under existing conditions, without
safeguards of any kind to maintain the pari-
ty of the metals, would not drive gold out of
circulation and leave us practically, at least,
upon silver basis"

Positive Results.

We learn that the apparently marvellous
results attained from the absorption process
employed by DR.. Hess, of Grand Rapids. of
which we have made mention, has caused
something like a revolution IN medical
science. The painless removal of cancers
and tumors, and other morbid growths, and
while the process is varied somewhat it has
been demonstrated to have been equally
successful in the treatment of tubercular
consumption, wherein we learn positive
proof has been established and radical cures
been effected, and was 1t not that ample
proof of all assertions can be produced, we
should feel loath to publish such assertions,
but coming from the bonafde which it
does it certainly seems TO be genuine sue

The tariff on lumber is having the good
effect expected by Its advocates and friends.
A few days ago an East Tawas lumber
company received an order to cut sixteen
million feet of logs, to be shipped from
Canada. The order came from the Spanish
River Lumber Company, whose mills are at
Spanish River, Ontario. Since the duty
was removed from Canada, this Ontario
company has been cutting Its own logs in
its own mills and selling their lumber in
the United States. AS result OF the lum-
Der tariff the labor of cutting these Canadian
logs has been transferred to Michigan and
the wages paid for the labor will add to
business activity In the United States where
the lumber will be sold. The new tariff
bill is adding every day to the number of
busy American workingmeD. 1t is opening
the American mills and adding to the value
of American pay days.-Cadillac News and
Express.

Armour on the Tariff.

Philip ID. Armour, of Chicago, the noted
packer, fnancier and multi-millionaire, over
his own signature, says:
Chicago, Aug. 22.-The new tariff bill is
the best thing that ever happened to the
business interests of the United States.
Germany and France are being made to take
the same kind of medicine they have been
giving us for the last few years, and they
have had enough of 1t already. Germany
has quit threatening retaliation, and France
will quit, too, in a few weeks. They are
both taking down the wall they had built
up against American products. and within
few months our goods will find market
there which they have not had for years.
The people of the United States are mast
ers Of the situation. The Germans and
French acknowledge it. They can't get
along without our products.
Five years of sunshine haye begun.
l have never predicted $1.5O wheat, but
l did predict that wheat would go up to 81,
and l believe it will stay there. Europe is
obliged to buy our creals. and 1t has all the
money necessary to pay for them. There
can be just as much imported at 81 a bushel
as at 75c. The people of Europe will pay
one price just as quickly as the other.
Corn and oats and provisions are bound to
go up with wheat.

country show a marked Improvement over
July of last year or of the year preceding.
This will be encouraging to the thousands of
railroad men through the country whose at

paign, and whose votes did much to turn
the tide of battle in favor of Mckinley and
sound currency.

The growth of protection sentiment has
been evidenced in many ways during the
past special session of congress in the dis
cussion of the tariff bill, but no more clearly
than in the reception accorded to Senator
McEnery upon his arrival in New Orleans
after long fight on tariff principles, in
which he stood shoulder to shoulder with
the great protection leaders of the country.

The farmers of the country have been the
first to feel the improved condition of bust
ness. The products which they have had
for sale have steadily risen in value all
along the line, and the increased volume Of
money has come directly into their pockets.
"Bradstreet's," in speaking of the present
condition of the American farmer, says:
"The American agriculturist has had no
such opportunity to reap so large share Of
the rewards of labor for years as is now
promised him."

pose to go to the Alaska gold field.
David Huffman, general utility man
in the employment of DR.. LucieH
Banks, came within an ace of losing
his life last Friday evening. It was
shortly after seven o'clock in the ev-
ening, when "rattle de bang" noise
startled evening loiterers and prom
enaders on Bridge street in the neigh
borhood of the Odd Fellows Hall.
Those who heard the noise had not
time to ask: ''What's that?" till the
awful cry of a man in despair broke
over all that part of the town and
two squares further. The cry was
repeated again and again. Business
came to stand still. The two large
hotels nearby emptied their inmates
and everybody indoors came out,
and each one bore an anxious inquiry
upon their face Travel was lmped-
ed by the crowd on the pavements.
indeed no one wanted to travel ex-
cept in the direction of the cry for
help. Some thought it was flre
julie Derr, the efficient railroad hos
pital attendant, who can amputate
and bandage human limb more
skillfullv than the average doctor,
was coming up Bridge street when
the hub bub took place, and ne
thought it was fire alarm and
quickly turned and ran to turn IN an
alarm at the Patterson fire depart
ment, but before he sprung the
alarm, he was informed that it was
not q fire that had started. but some
other disaster the nature of which
was then unknown. Everybody in
that part of the town was excited,
and of course it was only the brief
est time till the groaus and cries for
help were located as coming from the
alley in the rear of the Banks drug
store. There was a general stam-
pede for that locality. In moment
the allev was swarming with people.
Carl F. ESpenechade, who had been
enjoying the evening at the Craw-
ford drug store, was one of the first
to arrive at the scene of trouble at
the Banks stable, and there found
David Huffman living on the eobble
stones with one of the barn doors COW
eriug him up as far as to his breast.
It was the rattle of the falling down
of the door that had first broke npon
the evening stiffness. and it was Huff
mans cry for help, that had alarmed
all that community. The large door
was speedily lifted off the prostrate
form and Carl F. Espenschade and
Harry Musser tenderly carried him to
the B INKS drug store where thorough
examination of his body was made by
the Drs Banks. No bones we're broken.
His limbs and body up to the breast
were bruised. and he sustained ner-
vous shock TO PROSTATE him several
days. He said that the stable door had
sprung off a wheel at one side, and
when he tried to replace it, il sprung
off the wheel on the other side and
fell over on him. It was about as
close call for Dave as when he was
; fighting for the stars and stripes
| against the Southern contederacy.
