Prevented a Tragedy.

Timely Information given Mrs. George
Long, of New Straitsville, Ohio, pre-
vented q dreadful tragedy and saved
two lives. A frightful cough had long
kept her awake every night. She had
tried many remedies and doctors but
steadily grew worse until urged to try
DR.. Kings New Discovery. One bottle
wholly cured her, and she writes this
marvellous medicine also cured Mr..
Long of severe attack of Pneumonia.
Sucn cures are positive proof of the
matchless merit of this grand remedy
for curing all throat, chest and lung
troubles. Only so cents and Sl.O0.
Every bottle guaranteed Trial bottles

farm products, the maintenance of CO.
operative stores, small factories and
shops, many hundreds of cooperative
butter and cheese factories, co.opera-
tive elevators, warehouses, lumber
companies, milling companies, cotton
ginning associations, telephone lines,
and 80 on through long variety Of
undertakings.
If anything can help the cooperative
movement among farmers, said Mr..
Holmes, it would help movement,
which, if we'll conducted, is conducive
to their welfare. II tends to eliminate
the middleman, makes the farmer more
of a capitalist, tends to make him safe,
cultivates his knowledge of business,
makes him more self-relant, increases
mis- profits, and more important of all,
unites in one interest both capital and
labor.
But the cooperative movement has
demonstrated that certain rocks OF dan
ger must be avoided, and these are, in
competent management, dishonest man
agement. and lack of capital.
Farmers, said the speaker, are espe-
cially in position calling for cooper
alton. They are so numerous that
they are frequently and sorely subject
ed to competition with one another in
the disposal of their products, and prob
ably more so than with any other class
of producers are naturally at the mercy
of the middls man, or of the men who
buy directly from them and dispose of
the farm products to Wholesale dealers
or consumers.
The farmer is more or less isolated;
he lacks capital; uneided and alone, he
is generally unable to reach consumers
directly, and so, operating independent
ly, he is compelled to accept the services
of the middle man, and the middle man
buys from the farmer practically upon
commission and sells for cash or upon
short time: and thus, without furnish
ing much, if any, capital himself, he
compels the farmer to supply the CAPT
tai for his operations and makes the
farmer suffer for loss by bad debts or
any other cause, to say nothing of the
frequent dishonesty of the middle man
and his false reports with regard to the
prices he receives if he sells upon com.
mission.
In conclusion Mr.. Holmes asserted
that the farmer acted alone in his deal
ings with men of concentrated capital
and power

.JEV-B4TTING PEVOLUTJONISTS

The most ardent supporters of the theory that
Drcyfus unjustly condemned, say some
recent dispatches now admit that there Is
no hope that justice will be done Their pes
slmism Is not TO be wondered at. in view of the
Governments proposed interference with the
Court of Cessation NJ Locw, the Presiding
Judge Of the Criminal Section of that Court,
describes this latest move Of the French Jew
baiters as revolutionary. The word does not
seem 10 be a bit too strong. The dcplorable
feature Of the case is that the move Is made by
or through the Government But ii is quite
possible for n Government, we'll as for an
opposition faction. to do a revolutionary act
Here are the facts The question Of the re-
vision of the Dreyfus case was submitted TO
the Criminal Section Of the Court Of Cessation.
That was eminently proper, that tribunal be-
ing the ultimate court Of appeal. AS the eX-
animation proceeded. the weakness and dishOn-
esty of the Jcw-baitcrs became apparent. and
the opinion grew that the court would decide
in favor Of revision. Then one member Of the
court, NJ. Quesnay de Beaureparc. announced
himself to be in sympathy with the Jcw-bait
ers, resigned his place on the bench. and made
n savage and incend.ry attack upon his late
colleagues on grounds frivolous as to excite
only derlson and contempt. The prctcXt was
sufficient, however. for It's purpose and the
Government now proposes to discrcdit the
Criminal Section Of the court by Withdrawing
the case from IL in advance OF its verdict and
submitting il 10 the entire court. Thus arbl-
trarily TO interfere with n case in process Of
adjudication is indeed we'll described rs revo-
lutOnary. The natural inference will no that
the Government was afraid the Criminal Sec
ton would decide for revision. and was deter
mined to prevent II and therefore sent the case
TO the full court Of some forty members, hoping
there to marshal n majority against revision.
If this Inference does the Government lnjus
ticc the Government has only itself TO blame
And what next? Suppose this revolutionary
hill is adopted The case goes 10 the full court
Then If n decision In favor Of revision still
seems probable. will some charge be trumped
up against the whole tribunal. and the case In
mld-proccss he Withdrawn from it and sent
elsewhere? In brief is no settlement to be
permitted. save one against revision? II really
looks SO. But II so. what becomes of Justice?
What becomes of law? What will become Of
the Republic?

GEORGE DEWEY.

T, vos recently reported that Il friend OF Kcar'
Admiral Dewey travelling In the East had seen

grade of Admiral rs measure essential to inc
ncrforn,ancc of his duties Anecdotes Of Dewey,
whether prcsumptlvcy true or obviously apoc-
rvphaI. are sure of wide circulation so deep
and universal IS the interest in that admirable
man: bat we suspect that those who Deile'eu
this particular story were conscious of some
slight regret 1t did not seem TO comport ex-
octly with the estimate which every one Of his
authenticated acts and uttcrances had led the
world TO form. For one thing, It was felt that
If his sagacity really was nfalliblc he would
not have selected as the bearer of his coniden-
tial message person who was capable OF max
ins it public at the earliest opportunity; and
moreover, the intimation that Admiral Dewey
was In any degree. for any cause. unequal 10
the task assigned him did not correspond To the
common understanding of the situation and the
man. But for these very reasons we suppose
that most of those who read the tale have been
screnely awaiting the contradiction when
Dewey's visitor now makes The simple fact Is
that he sent no such message.
This agreeable confirmation Of a wc-foundcd
presumption certainly tOcS HOl hliIlhlHi INV
pleasure with which the people learn that the
Senate Committee on Naval Affairs has decided
to report favoraby the joint resolution rcviying
the grade Of Admiral. with an amendment pro-
viding that the active service Of the person who
may be appointed 10 that Office shall be eX-
tended ten years. OF course, no name Is mem
toned in the resolution. but equally of course
no other name than Dewey's Is thought of. We
do not know that there has been any unsecmly
delay in the process of putting the Rear Admiral
officially in the class in which he belongs. for 1t
was not until after the end Of the extra session
that his greatest qualities were disclosed ana
consequently the deiberation which may have
vcXed some of his countrymen has lasted not
nine months but less than two. 1t is not only
or chiefly in recognition Of his splendid per-
Torrance on May that the President and the
people are anxious TO see him raised to the rank
Of which Farragut was first deemed worthy.
His title to that distinction rests also and more
securely upon the long succession of diplomatic
and administrative achievements which fol-
lowed the battle of Manila Bay
But IL hitherto there has been no sufficient
reason to complain of Congress, public senti-
mcnt Is on the verge of becoming impatient.
The Nation doesn't want 10 wait much longer
for the privilege Of acclaiming Admiral Dewey.
