Interest is being revived in the
movement to build up a combina-
tion of farmers with a view to the
reduction of the wheat crop in or
der to secure higher prices. 1t is
claimed that if the crop is reduced
20 per cent, the farmer will be sure
to get dollar a bushel for his
wheat. The trouble about organ
izing a farmers trust is the great
number of people that it is neces-
sary to get into the organization.
Farmers more than any other peo-
pie have less concert of action and
unity of purpose. Living apart,
honest and unsuspecting, they are
slow to take hold of business meth.
DDS and schemes of organization
for their own protection. So they
go on in the work of over-produc-
tion of corn, wheat, cotton and
other crops only to find disappoint-
ment and loss at the end of the
year. Call it trust or not, farm
ers are justified in reducing their
crops in order to bring living prices.
1t is the only salvation of the wheat
raiser and the cotton planter.
Bring the production down to the
point where good prices-at least
living prices-will be the natural
and inevitable result. 1t all de-
pends on the action of the farmers.

And now Uncle Sam is bristling
up aud making a feint at Turkey,
on account of the failure of the
Sultan to pay indemnity claimed
for damages to property belonging
to American missionaries. Consid
GRAFTON has been given to a propo-
sition to seize the port of Smyrna
and administer it's customs revenues
until the judgment and expenses of
collection are Cancelled. This course
might precipitate war, through
Turkeys sending some of it's anti
quated warships to Smyrna to re-
sist the temporary American occu-
patton. In that event the neces-
sity for sending a large fleet to the
Mediterranean would create alarm
among the powers and disturb the
delicate equilibrium now existing in
Europe, Your Uncle Sam has al.
ready proven himself a good hand
with the carving knife, and should
he start in on Turkey he would do a

1t is now said that the Populists
are after Dewey to be their
candidate for the presidency. Carl
Brown, in a speech at Kansas City
said: "The head of the ticket
should be the popular idol of the
people, Admiral George Dewey,
with Wharton Barker or Ignatius
Dounelly for Vice President. With
such a ticket we will stand some
show of knocking out both the tick
cts nominated by the money power
and headed by President Mckinley,
aud that headed by William j.
Bryan"

The custom that some officials
have fallen into of making "depu-

idea that he ought to "tote a gun"
is one of the prolific sources of muir

if possible, to reach these walking
arseuals.n On this question the
Times-Journal very correctly says:
eve favor law making it a peni-
tentiary offense to carry a pistol,

ders. Make it apply to all officers

Deafness Cannot be Cured,

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inaamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets intlamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an intlamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol
