Rock Hill Herald: Mr.. T. Monroe
Oates, a prominent young farmer living
near Tirzah, left for Baltimore Wednes
day night, accompanied by DR.. w. f,
Strait. His object is to take the Pastuel
treatment for hydrophobia. Three weeks
ago Mr.. Oates was fondling one of bis
dogs which was dropping and looked
sick. The dog bit him on the hand and
a few days later disappeared. Sunday a
pup i'm Mr.. Oates yard began to droop
and act strangely and soon atterward dis
appeared. Mr.. Oates then began to fear
that hydrophobia was the cause OF the
dogs action and disappearance, and,
thinking that ian ounce of prevention is
worth pound of cure," he hastened to
Baltimore, and if he cannot get the treat
ment there, he will go to New York.
His many friends hope that his fears will
be proven groundless.

The Kansas City Star has alleged
that we could not have prosperity in
the full sense of the word under the
DINGHY tariff act, but the following
clipping from that sheet will convince
you that it has changed its tune:
THE truth seems to be that every
one has underestimate the forces
that are at work in the business world
at the present time, and that the i'm
provement in the near future will be
far in excess of any records that have
yet been made. There is no longer
any fear that the present activity is
merely a squirt resulting from temper
airy causes and likely to be followed
by lapse into comparative dizziness.
Nearly everybody has full confidence
that the boom in business has just
commenced, that the climax will not
be reached for years and that the
country is just entering upon a large
era of prosperity that will grow with
each succeeding year.

I Boom In Railroad Wages.

III The movement of grain to mar
ket has been a source of great benefit
to the employees of the several Kan
sas railroads. Every company in the
state has increased its shop force and
schedule of working hours, and the
men are earning more wages than at
any time since 1892. On the eastern
division of the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe freight conductors who two
months ago were receiving from $50 10
SIS month are now drawing pay to
the amount of $3.50 to Sl75. Brake
men whose mileage for the past two
years has averaged only $50 a motnh
are. now earning from $50 to 500.

Now that ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS are
in demand at living prices, farms are
in demand and real estate is bound to
increase in value. Already our real
estate men have begun to receive let
tiers from men in the east who want to
own real estate in Kansas, especially
southeastern Kansas. While farming
has not been profitable for few years
this is no indication that farming
does not pay. The farmer is the most
independent person living; he sells
where he can do 1.-THE best and buys
where he pleases, and has no one to
please but himself, The farmer is
certainly the true plutocrat.

1t was announced some weeks ago
that Billy Bryan would lay up awhile
until be saw what result the advanced
price in agricultural products would
have on the farmers. He took vaca-
tion and came home to find his fol-
lowers slipping away from him, so he
has again taken to the stump. He
will avoid the cities and talk in small
towns. Next year he will come down
to schoolhouses. His followers have
been fed on free coinage $50 long that
it is necessary to give them a dose oc-
casionally. They have been taught
that nothing bnt 16 to 1 could revive
business, and now that times are good
and farm products are bringing Harri-
son prices, many of the dyed in the
wool reformers cannot enjoy their
meals; they want some one to tell
them that times are not much better,
that there was failure of wheat in
India, that present prices can't last,
that the present imaginary good
times are due to the acts of God and
not to Mckinley, 1t requires great
deal of talk to keep the present refor-
mer in line, and as talk is Bryan's
long suit he is ready to tell the poor
down-trodden fellows all about it,
provided they put up $500 to $1,000 for
each days work. Billy is nothing if
not smooth.

If the dry weather keeps up much
longer and the farmers continue to
have to haul water, the calams will
be able to force a smile once more.
They have seemed sad indeed since
the yprice Of agricultural products
have gone up to a living basis and
busted the silver and wheat travelling
side bye side arguement. But in the
dry weather the fellow with sour
stomach finds a ray of hope. The
calamityite is never so happy as when
he sees his fellowman in trouble.

Governor Leedy, who left his farm
farm in Coffey county because he
could not make a living farming, and
entered politics, where hehas had bet
ter luck, was back in Ohio the latter
part of August, visiting in the vicin-
ity of his old home; the people of this
vicinity were mostly Dunkards, a
plain honorable set of people, who
work hard and are always thrifty.
To these honest old farmers who were
boys together, the governor made a
speech on farming. We are sorry we
have not a copy of the speech, as,
while this paper makes no claim to

like to publish it in full.

II Something over S2,000.000 bonded
Indebtedness in Kansas will be refund
ed during the present year and the in
terest thereon reduced from 7, s and 9
percent to four percent.
The legislature of 'S7 passed law au-
thorizing counties, townships or mu-
inequalities to refund any of their
bonds then or thenafter at the expir-
alton of ten years from date of issue
whether they be due or not. The law,
was passed for the purpose of enabling
the people to take advantage of a
better money market should one hap
pen to exist.
Over 50, 100000 in bonds were issued
in 1887, mostly in aid of railroads, all
of which under provisions of the law
referred to, can be refunded this year.
In many instances arrangements tore
fund have already been made. Money
is so plentiful this year that the
bonds can be placed at rate of inter-
est as low as 4 per cent. Eastern
money is in the state now seeking in
vestment in good bonds at that figure.
The state school fund commissioners
announce that they will purchase a
great many of these refunding bonds.
The annual saving to the people as a
result of this wholesale refunding at a
lower rate of interest will be between
$4,000 and 800, JOCK. C. World.
How does this strike the average
tax payer of Kansas as prosperity
item? And, by the way, we are in
formed that Tioga township has
$40, 500, I per cent bonds. If the above
article is correct, why not refund
them at or ~ per cent?
