Foraker's Answer to Bryan.

SEDALIA, Mo, Sept. l7.-Senator Fora
ker, of Ohio, spoke TO 5000 persons here
yesterday. Speaking of Mr.. Bryan's eS-
PLANTATION as to the advance in wheat be
ing attributable to the shortage of the
crop in Europe, the Senator said that
sheep, cattle and all farm products must
also be short in India, as there had been
an appreciable advance all along the line
since the enactment of the Dingley bill.
Attention was called TO the fact that
$4,000 idle men had been put to work
since the Dingley bill was signed.
He referred 10 Mr.. Bryan's utterances
here wednesday on strikes.
''When the Democratic party is in pow
er," said the speaker, ''the factories and
mines all close down, and the former EN-
pioyes have no wages to strike for, but
Instead they strike out into the highways
and byways in search Of employment" {"

In accordance with the dt>..e ofthe sec
retary of agriculture TO promote more ex-
tended experiments in the use Of steel
trackways on wagon roads, the office of
road inquiry has made arrangements
with the Cambria Iron Works of Johns
town, Pa, for rolling special rails for this
purpose, these arrangements TO go into
effect as soon as definite orders from re-
spOnsible parties amounting to one mile
Of track are received.
The director of road inquiry and the
engineers Of the iron company, after
much discussion, have agreed upon a
plan of track which promises to meet all
requirements. Ii uses no wood in con-
struction and no cross-ties for support.

Martin Under Arrest.

HAZLEroN, Sept. 20.-The warrants for
the arrest of Sheriff Martin and his dep
uties were issued to-day by Judges Lynch
and Bennett at Wilkesbsrre. They were
served here tonight and no resistance
was made. The writs contain rs names,
including the sherif's, and the latter has
agreed 10 deliver all the deputies for a
hearing 10 morrow. 4 company of tho
ninth regiment will escort them TO
Wilkesbarre. Gen. Goblin permitted the
service Of the writs because he thinks the
civil authorities are now able 10 handle
the situation. The gradual withdrawal of
the troops will be considered tomorrow.
Unless unforeseen developments occur

is ended.

B & o. Track Building.

When a railroad company starts to lay
three hundred or four hundred miles of
new eighty-five pound steel rails, as the
B. 4 o. is doing. it costs money for ties,
spikes, splice bars, etc. The b. & o. has
adopted certain standards. and. accord
ing 10 the book, 1t takes 1887 tons of
eighty-five-pound rails for one mile OF
track. Ties are laid twenty-four inches
from centre To centre, making 900 per
mile. Four spikes per tie calls for thirty
kegs, or 1880 spikes. weighing 6.OO0
pounds, or three tons, la eaea mile OF
thirty y-foct rails there are S52 complete
joints. requiring 7Gi splice bars and |,
ios bolts. The Il. & O. uses what is known
as the continuous rail joint splice bar"
which is supposed to prevent low joints,
the bane of trackman's life.

Guess Work in Medicine is Valueiess, Es'
pecially So in Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat.

Hundreds of people write specialists
they have some ailment to which they
give a name, and ask if it can be cured,
and how much viii it cost. Think of such
a proposition Oae moment and see how
impossible 70 answer.
The worst cases of failure in medical and
surgical work are owing to incorrect
diagnosis-treating for the wrong thing.
\ correct knowledge of disease or con-
dition can only be gained, even by an ex-
pert, by a careful examination. There
fore. if you have any ailment of eye, ear.
nose or throat worth spending money on
at all, do it right by having an examina-
ton first.
DIR. Sadler, S04 Penn avenue, Pittsburg,
whose p years experience in such cases
gives him the best means of knowing,
says that three -fourths ofthe permanent
loss of sight and hearing has been caused
by such g1ess g5rk delay.

Payment OF Poll Tax.

At the last session Of the legislature an
act was passed, the intention OF which is
to stop tho payment by political parties
of the poll taxes of voters. As the laws

form very few persons know what this
act really is and how important and far
reaching its effect will be. The following
is the full text:
AN ACT-To prohibit the payment of
any occupation or poll tax assessed for

CoTToN, too, is going to be a great
yield, and as the prices are considera-
bly, in advance of those of 1896 at this
time, the South is going to have a
stroke of Republican luck" This is
going to be a memorably good year for
all sections of the country. Prosperity
has hit the West and the South, and is
caroming over to the East. The men

tinues for two or three days. the animals
becoming truly lethlrgic, until at last
they drop and die in short, convuisive

horses treated die just the same as those

CHAIRMAN JONES is right in his in
timation that the Endorsement Of the
Chicago platform by the New York
Democrats would be bad politics. In
fact, as a matter Of politics, the indorse-
ment Of that platform by anybody, in
any State, at any time, would be bad.
The kicks and cuffs which Jones friend
Bryan got last November from the peo-
pie for indorsing that platform are an
eloquent admonition to Pop candidates
in the future TO let it alone. If the peo-
pie had the work to do now they would
hit BRYAN harder.
