Attention Farmers.

Don't let them fool you in bnying
FERTILIZERS by telling you that they
sell the same grade, or the sam G
kind for less money than is sold by
j. II. Kline, of Enterprise, o. for
they cannot do it by three or four
dollars on the ton. Remember
that our celebrated Fertelizers are
not sold by any other person in
Hooking county, except J. Fl. Kline
and his representatives who pur-
chase them of us In 100 ton lots and
over and get the very lowest cash
price, and therefore can sell the
Farmers better FERTILIZER for less
money. Our celebrated desolved
bone sold at $l7.OO per ton can not
be beat for wheat and grass also
our Plain Super. Phosfate sold at
$500 per ton will give a number
one crop and cannot be beat at the
price. Call on our agent j. II. Kline
and get your fertelizers and you
will make no mistake. 1t will
realize you more money than going
to Klondike.

A Silver Talk.

II is ramored that the Bank of
England intends TO make one fifth
of It's reserve fund silver instead Of
gold as at present. Some of our
silver advocates believe this to be
a concession to bi.metallism, but
it is not it is merely step toward
the opening Of the India mints
which is bound to come in the near
future. The position of the British
Government on the question is well
understood. 1t will never consent
to assist in the return to inter-na-
tional bi -metallism. OF course our
gold bugs and pretended bi-metal-
lists know this as well as they
know that Sunrise comes from the
East and they depend upon it as
the sheet anchor that is to hold the
world down to the Gold Standard.

Greeks Ganture NIenaxa.

London. April lS.-A dispatch TO the
Daily Chronicle from Athens. dated
midnight. says the Greeks have cap
tured Menaxa after severe fighting.
The Turkish losses We're very heavy.
the Greek comparatively light. The
correspondent adds: The Greek fleet
has destroyed half the fortresses at
Prevesa and silenced the guns. am
assured that the bombarding will be
continued tomorrow (Monday) morn
ing. The latest news received here to-
night is that the Greeks have captured
and hold all the positions except Ana
and Milouna along the Thessalian line.
l. have had access TO an important
document from n European showing
that the powers have done nothing for
several weeks. because they hoped that
Greece would be either financially
ruined or soundly beaten by Turkey.
If Turkey gets I.arissa she will remain
there until Greece evacuates Crete. 1t
WAS Germany that urged Turkey to

was sent to Delta at once. the operator
being reused out of bed and the mes

one and has been engaging the special
attention of the levee authorities for
weeks. Several hundred convicts have
been employed upon it, in addition to
other laborers. and so greatly had it
been strengthened that only to-day the
belief was confidently expressed by
men living behind it that 1t would hold

All criminologists agree that indi-
rect suggestion is one of the surest
ways OF melting to crime; and an emf
nent French writer has published a
volume on the "Contagion of Murder"
In which he traces cases OF homicidal
mania induced by pictures OF assassi-
nation. The regular reader of many
modern newspapers might imagine that
the vol is much worse than it used
to be. This would be mistake. The
difference is not only that the newspa-
pers exaggerate. and sometimes invent
details of crime, but that the facilities
for collecting news are SO much bet
ter than formerly that everything is
reported. There is no part Of the news
papers of the day which can be more
proftably skipped than the detailed
narratives OF crime; and newspapers
which make a specially of the evil
there is in the world should not be TAX
en- into any home.

The Sugar Schedule.

Washington, April 15.-The worst
thing in the tariff bill is schedule Il,
which relates to sugar. 1t proposes to
place tax of lilo per cent. ad valo-
rem upon an estimated Importation of
1.5OO.OOO tons of sugar. valued at $73.-
100000, which is expected to produce
sol .963.9OG in revenue. Under the
Mckinley law, sugar from reciprocity
countries was free. Under the pres
ent law of 1894 the duty is Al per cent.
ad valorem. The imports last year
were valued at S73,O64 COB. and pro-
duced a revenue of $20,91O,O16. AS a
revenue raiser there is no article in
the long list of imported merchandise
more convenient and successful than
sugar. The people must have it. They
do not feel the burden of the duty. and
the retail price is just now as low as
it was before it was restored to the du-
table list. The question as to who
pays the tax in the case of sugar is,
simple. When the seller has monop-
oily of the article sold. the buyer pays
the tax. When the buyer controls the
market. the seller has to pay the tax,
as in this case. and the S52,OOOOOO.
which Mr.. Dingley expects to raise by
his duty on sugar will be paid by the
planters and negroes of Cuba and
other West India islands who have no
other market

WAR HAS NOW BEGUN.
TURKEY GIVES THE WORD.
Question Who Ia Responsible-The Creeks
Press the Fighting and Appear to
Have a Slight Advantage.

Constantinople. April 1.-THE coun-
Gil of ministers. after a session at the
palace to-day. declared that war had
broken out on the frontier owing to
the incursion by the Greeks on Turkish
territory. and Edhem Pasha, the Turk
ish military commander, was ordered
to assume the offensive.
1t was also reported that the council
of ministers had decided TO recall As
sim Bey, the Turkish minister at Ath-
ems, and had given passports to Prince
Maurocoplato, the Greek minister at
COnstantinOple..
The situation is summed up in a de-
tailed circular sent this evening to the
Turkish representatives abroad. This
circular recalls the weeks invasion of
Turkish territory. and states that the
newest incursion was participated in
by Greek troops, thereby establishing
war. The circular expresses the hope
that the powers. in n spirit of justice,
will agree that the entire responsibility
for the war falls on Greece. Turkey
has no idea of conquest, the circular
adds, and as fresh proof of pacific
sentiments the sublime porte offers to
retire the Turkish troops on the from
tier If Greece will retire her forces
from the frontier and from Crete.
Athens, April 17.-In the legislative
chamber to-day the premier. NJ. Del
yannis confirmed the dispatches an
nouncing fighting between the Greeks
and the Turks on the frontier. He
added that firing had ceased.
In the legislative chamber. NJ Del
yannis, the premier. replying to inter
pellations. said that official advices
from the frontier left no question about
the Turks being the aggressors in Fri
day evenings fighting. At Nezero. the
Turks attempted TO occupy strategic
position, situated in the neutral zone
This the Greeks could not permit.
ThereupOn the Turks opened fire. the
Greeks replying. The fight lasted
from early in the evening until mid
night, and ended in repulse TO the
Turks. This morning the Turks again
attempted to occupy the same strate-
gic position and again they We're re
pulsed. After the firing ceased orders
We're issued to the Greeks to maintain
their positions. but to avoid provoking
encounters with the Turks
The line of fire extended from Mount
Analpisis post to Klephtika Gentilia. a
distance equal to ninety minutes
march, which the Greeks promptly oc-
cupied. The Greeks cannonaded the
turks from the Greek position at
Tsamteja, in the rear The cannonad-
ing caused much excitement at other
points. Since noon strong bodies of
the Turks have concentrated in the di-
rection of Mount Analipsis. AT five
O'Clock the firing slackened. 1t is ex-
pected that the Turks will attempt a
night attack upon Analipsis. which
was the central point of the battle.
Greek reinforcements have arrived,
and there is a general movement of
troops toward the frontier.
Relnforcements are being hurried to-
ward the frontier from all directions.

Two Youthful Despots.

London, April 16.-Mr. Gladstone
has written n letter to the Macedonian
leader, Captain Dampzes. in which he
says: Under the present. deplorable
scheme all the British government has
the right to do, seemingly. is to plead
its opinions before a tribunal of TWO
youthful despots, the emperors of
Germany and Russia, and to abide by
their help to execute their final deter
limitations.
Our disgraceful office seems to be t.
place ships, guns, soldiers and sailors
at their disposal for the purpose OF
keeping down the movement for the
liberty of Crete and of securing tc
these young despots, who have in nc
wise earned the confidence of Europe
the power of deciding questions which
rightfully belong to the Cretans."

BoYCoTTING CHINAMEN.
Judge Knowles. at Butte, Issues Tempo
rary Injunction Against the Union.

Judge Knowles. at Butte, Issues "a Tempo
rnry Injunction Against the Union.
Helena. Mont, April 16.-Late this
afternoon in chambers Judge knowles
of the United States Court granted
temporary restraining order against
the BOYCOTT of the labor unions in Butte
against the Chinese merchants doing
business in that city. The matter Is OF
such grave importance that it may
cause International trouble before it is
finally settled. For years past there
has been systematic boycott of all
Chinese industries in Butte by the Ia
bor unions there. In this action all the
unions in that city. twenty-four, are
made defendants. In their complaint
the Chinese claim that in boycotting
them the unions have gone so far as
to distribute circulars and parade
transparencies through the streets, and
not only that, but the unions have sta
toned men at the entrances to the
Chinese places of business and warned
all persons who entered to trade that
if they did not desist a boycott would
be waged against them. The Chinese
also claim that the unions have also
sent their representatives to the homes
of the patrons of the Chinese and by
threats of violence and the use of arms
tried 10 compel them not to trade with
the Chinese. The plaintiffs claim that
their losses are S5O,O0O. and that II
would be impossible TO recover the
same through the courts. owing to the
large number of suits they would be
compelled to bring, and that justice
for them would be out of the question,
owing to the prejudice that exists in
Butte to-day toward them.
Colonel Sanders appears for the
plaintiffs, and the defendants are cited
TO appear before Judge Knowles on
May 10th. and in the meantime the boy
colt must be raised. Colonel Sanders
has just recently returned from Wash
ington. and while there laid the mat
ter before Secretary Sherman, and the
outcome of their discussion was the
commencement of the suit to-day. AL
ready the representatives of the Chi
nese government have been advised of
the general boycotts of the Chinese in
this country. and it is stated on excel
lent authority that il it does not i'm
mediately cease there are liable to be
very strained relations between the
two nations.
