prices are so low that some of the growers
are allowing the strawberries to rot In the
fields.
In his report to the government statis-
tician Mr.. James T. Shallcross put the crop
for May at 100, but since the wheat has
headed out naarly all fields show q falling
of of 81 least 15 points and some have fall
len as low as 80 points. The ravages
of the Hessian fly have caused this condi-
tion of the crop. Peaches, where the trees
are in health, are plentiful and promising.
The apple crop is . failure. Mr.. Shallcross
will have full crop of pears. Japan
plums are plentiful. All patches Of early
potatoes are looking well. Corn is grow
ing, and generally good stand. In few
instances the wire or heart worm has de-
stroyed the corn.

he announced in substance that op-
position to trusts and demand that
cities should govern themselves in
the several states would constitute
the national Democratic platform of
1900.
How do such men as Richard Cro-
ker know what the delegates to the
next Democratic national convention
will adopt for their party platform?
Mr.. Croker and his kind of men are
not likely to have much to say in the
next national Democratic convention
1t is altogether doubtful If they
will even be permitted to obtain seats
in that body. Such men are the a
gents of Wall street and the Stock ex-
change, end their real sympathies
are with trusts and kindred combin-
ations to create monopoly and enrich
unprincipled men at the expense of
the unsuspecting masses. All such
men are opposed to the restoration of
silver to full and free coinage as a
part of our monetary system, without
which no permanent or general
prosperity seems possible.
Let the Democratic party in every
community be on guard and permit
the nomination of no candidates for
office in its ranks between now and
1850 who are not known to be faithful
and devoted friends of the Chicago
Democratic platform Of 1896. Secret
efforts are now on foot In every COM
muntty of the north, south and west,
to nominate and elect to office in the
Democratic party men who pretend
to be Bryan Democrats but who are
the secret enemies of the Chicago
platform and Of the free coinage of
silver.
1t is hoped in this way to perfect
plans to send a large number of dele
gates to the Democratic convention
Of 1900 who will betray the Bryan
Democracy and work for such div
ision in its ranks as will promote the
election of another president pledg-
ed to the gold standard and not to
interfere with monopoly in any form.
Let the Democratic party of Colum-
bus and the Twelfth congressional
district be advised. Let the Ohio
Democracy be not deceived by i'm
postors.--Press.

the highest price on the literary mar

Lieutenant Hobson, the Merrimac

Hobson is soon to write. The Cen.

Let Democrats Be Warned

In order for the Democratic party
to win the next presidential contest,
and to elect the majority of the
members Of the next congress in 1860,
1t will be necessary not only to re-
affirm tho principals of the Chicago
platform Of 1895, and nominate
William ]. Bryan as the candidate,
but also to go further and demand
that all trusts and plundering COM
bines be abolished, and that the peo-
pie be permitted in the several states
to vote upon the adoption of all laws
largely affecting their rights.
1t will be necessary for the Demo-
cratic party to become yet more
Democratic, rather than to rscede
from the ground 1t took in 1895, and
surrender any of the principles then
promulgated. 1t may even be
necessary then to add plank favor
Ing the naturalization of RAILWAYS,
selegraphs and telephones, to be used
and operated as part of the post
ONCE equipment, and endorsing the
principal of municipal ownership of
street railroads and other public
franchises.
1t can scarcely be doubted that op-
position to trusts and the doctrine of
municipal ownership as well as the
naturalization of railway telegraph
and telephone lines, is growing with
great rapidity in this country. This
growth ofsentiment, beyond dispute,
has been fostered I'm the last two
years by the multiplication of trust
combinations in defiance of law, and
the creed of corporations In our large
cities In the exercise OF arbitrary
powers In the operation of street
railways, gas and electric light
plants, as well as the telephone lines.
The Chicago platform of 1895 must
be supplemented by such declara-
tions Of principles as have had their
growth since that date. But the
Democratic party of the north, south
and west must be on guard against
the deceitful agents Of Wall street,
who are now and for two years have
been parading the country in disguise
claiming to be Democrats. Richard
Croker, an ex-prize fighter and now
turfman and political boss of New
York City, is now in the west, and
was afew days ago In Chicago, where
