A new book of 13j pages by Marvin Warren.
Hy irresistible facts and logic it shows clearly
That the natural and easy way of maintaining
forever the parity of all gold, silver and paper
smoncy is to make them equally legal tender,
but not redeemable in each other nor in any
$hinG but government dues.
The author holds that our financial and in
dustrial woes come chiefly from the present
system of coin redemption, and he points out o
way TO speedy relief.
The measures proposed in this book are the
logical outcome of the principles of the Peoples
Party, and the rapid circulation of this book
will be OF immense service in uniting the
scattered forces of the party, and in making new
converts everywhere.

Because Their Candidate For

Leavenworth, July 22.-An epidemic
of hydrophobia is raging in the county
and has resulted in a very considerable
loss of stock Farmers of Stranger
township especially have been the vic
Tins, but just what the loss will reach
cannot yet be fully estimated.
A farmer named TOwne who resides
on the Kirkpatrick farm, about II miles
from the city has been a heavy suffer-
er. Six head of cattle have died from
the effect of the bites and it is feared
that more have been bitten. A short
time ago he heard a commOtion in his
pasture, during the night, but knowing
that his cattle would fight any strange
dogs treSpassing in the pasture, he paid
but little attention to it.
The next morning upon investigation
he found a dead dog in his pasture.
This had been killed by the cattle but
before the dog met its death it had
succeeded in biting a number of the
beasts. How many more had been bit
ten in that locality is not known

GREAT RAINS UP NORTH.
Grain Four Feet High Disappears
From View in Minnesota

Ada, Minn.,- July 22.-The worst floods
in the history of this section are now
on here. Long continued rains amount
ing to five inches, coming at a time
when the ground was thoroughly soak
ed, have flooded half of Norman coun-
ty. The grain which was waving four
feet high is now under water covering
the heads of the wheat.
The water rose SO rapidly a Ada that
people were rescued in boats. Dam
age amounts to a terrible disaster and
is especially severe on farmers who had
trouble last year from floods. 1t is
feared the Red river will not be able
to carry off the water and that the low
lands and wheat farms will be flooded
from Hendrum north for miles.

CITY OF ALPENA AGROUND.
Vessel With Three Hundred Passen-
gers Strikes Reef in Thunder Bay.

Alpena, Mich, July 22.-The steamer
City of Alpena of the Detroit and
Cleveland line, with 300 passengers on
board, ran on a reef in Thunder bay
last evening at o'clock in a dense fog.
The reef lies half mile from shore and
mile from the river, opposite Avery's
mill. The steamer was going at a
somewhat checked speed when she
struck and is well out forward. A
heavy fog overhung the water and pre-
vented persons on shore from seeing the
disaster. Signals from the steamers
whistle brought out tugs to the rescue
and such passengers as wished to land
at Alpena were Immediately taken
ashore. The tugs Ralph, Arthur D.and
the wrecker Root at once got out lines
to the stranded steamer and attempted
to release her The attempt was not
successful and a lighter will be take
to remove the freight The steamer is
leaking somewhat, but she has a double
bottom and water is coming into
the hold. The reef lies in a sheltered
place, SO that no danger is apprehended
from a storm. There may be trouble
in releasing her. however. The tugs
John Owen and Frank w. are off
Thunder Bay island with a raft and
may be sent for to pull on the steamer.
The passengers on board are taking
things easy and complain only of the
delay.
