STATISTICIAN ROBINSON.
Makes a Statement of Interest to Cot
ton Men.

Washington, March 25-The atten-
ton of the department of agriculture
has been drawn to a publication in
Liverpool of alleged official informa-
ton relative to mill takings from the
cotton crop of 1896. Mr. Henry A.
Robinson, statistician of the depart
ment, thinks it well for the public to
know that no official information of
the nature claimed has been given
out. The nature and state of the
work at the time of such publication
also render it impossible that the as
sertions contained therein could have
had any substantial foundation or any
verification of value, either public or
private. In making this disclaimer
Mr.. Robinson does not wish to be I'M
derstood as denying or affirming any
of the Liverpool statements.

THE WATER REceplNe.
visntsrs In the Mississippi Delta Hope
to Raise Crops.


MEMPHIS, April l2.-The water in
the Mississippi delta is slowly receding.
Reports received here from the over
flowed country are most encouraging.
Every planter in the delta is in better
spirits.
At Greenville the river as we'll
as the backwater surrounding the
town is stationary. Everything is in
readiness for the receipt and distribu.
tion of provisions from the government,
and as soon as the army officers arrive
the work will be actively entered into.
At Lula, Miss, q decided improve
ment is noted. There is still some suf-
fering In the back country, but it is be.
ing alleviated by the planters, and a
representative of the government has
arrived and will assist the destitute at
once.
The YazoO and Mississippi Valley
railroad has been busy with piledrivers
replacing washOuts and bridges. The
road will probably have trains running
into Lula and Clarksdale tomorrow.
1t is now believed the water will dis.
appear by May /, and IL this proves
true, fair crop can be made. The
overflow will leave settlement or de.
posit which greatly enriches the soil
and the planters may be yet able to
balance their big account with the
Father of Waters.
The river is falling at Memphis. At
Vicksburg and all points south steady
rise is noted.

HOW TO FIND OUT,

Fill bottle or common water glass
with urine and let it stand twenty. four
hours; sediment or settling indicates
a diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre-
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
Terhe is comfort in the knowledge
80 often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's 8
Swamp Root, the great kidney reme-
dy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. 1t
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad eff
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect Of Swamp-Root is soon realized
1t stands the highest for its most Won
derful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists, price 30 cents aud one dollar.
For a sample bottle and pamphlet,
both sent free by mail, mention the
News Democrat and send your full
post Office address to DR.. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y. The proprietors
of this paper guarantee the genuine
ness of this offer.

GOV. BUsHNELL's ESCORT.
A Cincinnati Regiment Hoping For the
Honor-The Erie's Courtesy.


A Cincinnati Regiment Hoping For the
Honor-The Erie's Courtesy.
OINcINNATI, April 13.--There is q
vague possibility that the First regi d.
ment, o. N. g., of this city, will be
asked by Governor Bushnell to accom-
pany him as a part of his personal
escort on the occasion of the dedica.
tion of the Grant monument, in New
York city, on April 27, and the mem.
bers of the regiment are hopefully an.
ticipating another semi military jaunt.
There will be no appropriation for
the trip, however, and If the regiments
60 the expenses will have to be paid
either by the individual members or by
popular subscription and that may be
an obstacle. Colonel Hunt does not
feel inclined to order the regiment out
for the trip aud assess the expense
against the boys. ana so informed the
governor. and. at the same time, he
feels delicacy about asking for public
subscriptions.
In this dilemma President Thomas
of the Erie railroad has kindly extended
to Governor Bushnell the courtesy of
the Erie road for the movement of the
Ohio state national guard from points
local to the Erie road in the state of
Ohio to New York and return on ac-
count of the Grant monument exer-
cises on April ~

MEMPHIS, April l3.-The mighty
sweep of the waters south of Vicks-
burg has at last had its effect upon the
lower levees and telegram from Tale.
lah, La, reports that the levee which

and the island will in all probability be

about 5000 acres of land. The place

Throughout the upper delta the flood
situation shows little change since last
reports. The work of government re-
lief has been actively inaugurated.
Many poor people are being fed and
housed at Greenville Rosedale, Helena,
Frars Point and many other points
along the river. A steamer is now ply
ing up the st. Francis river witch food
and forage for man and beast.
At Helena the river is falling The
weather observer at that point says that
a steady fall will be noted in the river,
despite the rise at Cairo and upper
river points.
The Williamson crevasse has widened
considerably, bnt the velocity of the
water has been checked and no further
breaks are feared.
