The ancients believed that rheumatism
was the work of a demon within a man.
Any one who has had an attack ofsciatic
or infammatory rheumatism will agree
that the infiction is demoniac enough to
warrant the belief. 1t has never been
claimed that Chamberlain's Pain Balm
would cast out demons, but it will cure
rheumatism. and hundreds bear testi-
mony to the truth of this statement.
One application relieves the pain, and
this quick relief which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. For sale by
The Dorsey Drug Co.

DEMOCRACY SHOULD BE
UNITED.

The platform adopted by the Demo-
cratic National Convention in 1896
made the free coinage of silver the
leading issue, says the Baltimore Sun.
If Mr.. Bryan had been elected at that
time and the House of Representative
had contained majority pledged to
silver, free coinage legislation could
and probably would have been enacted.
The platform adopted at Kansas City
last month makes imperialism the par
amount issue. 1t is true that the plat
form also contains specific declara-
ton for free coinage, but it is equally
true that there can be no free coinage
as long as the Senate is controlled 10y
the Republicans. The highest author
tiles on finance in the Republican par
ty have agreed that the currency leg
slation enacted at the last session OF
Congress will maintain the gold stand
statute books. The law cannot be re-
pcaled as long as the Republicans are
in the majority in the Senate. Free
coinage, therefore, in this campaign, is
scarcely more than an academic ques-
ton. 1t was political blunder to put
the silver declaration in the Kansas
City platform, but its presence in the
platform does not make it live ques-
ton. With a gold-standard Senate TO
hold silver President and House in
check free coinage is certainly not
practical issue for the time being.
The platform OF 1896 related ex-
clusively to domestic questions
The platform of 1900 makes wars OF
conquest, forcible annexation of terri
tory and imperial tendencies in gov
ernment the paramount issue. There
arc, therefore, abundant reasons why
Democrats who refused to 90 with
their party in 1896 should make COM
mon cause with it this year on the new
and important issues now before the
people. "When," as that sturdy gold
Democrat, General Collins, of Boston,
recently said, ''the integrity as we'll as
the honor Of the Republic is in peril
all minor questions disappear or wait
until the safety of the state is assured"

CHINA is AROUSED.

President David Starr Jordan, of lie
land Stanford, Jr., University, writing
from Shigu, Japan, regarding the Chinese
problem, says he attributes the existing
conditions to the work of Christian mis-
sionaries, who have sought to overthrow
ancient customs which are venerated by
the people, however obnoxious they may
be to foreigners.
"The national feeling is weak in China"
he adds, but the feeling for ancient Gus
toms-the feeling which we call con-
science, bigotry or fanaticism, according
to the way it affects us-is exceedingly
strong.
'In commerce and manufacture the Chi
nese will hold their own in any competi-
ton. They learn to make what they want,
bringing in skilled workmen from the rest
of the word as teachers. The Chinese are
apt pupils, and soon learn to avoid the
outside shipment of raw material. Even
in British Hongkong, as well as in Singa-
pore and Manila. it is said that all trade
is falling into the hands of Chinese mer-
chants, who displace the foreigners by
greater attention to business.
Chinese workmen supply most Chinese
demands more cheaply than any one else
can do. China is weak, but ChiIamen are
strong and the future. of the tropical
Orient lies in their hands. Once aroused,
not all Europe could furnish the men to
conquer the country or to hold it in check

The leaders ofthe Republican party, say s
the Cincinnati enquirer" are not going
to develop their intents by an open d, =
claraton of their designs. That is not
the mode in which assaults on liberty have
been made. The destruction of republic S
has been brought about by insidious meth
DDS In the name of liberty, liberty is de-
stroycd. Processing the most patriotic
aims-plcading the most intense love for
misunderstanding for the enlargement
of its spherc-abusing, in the name of IL
berty itself, the safeguards which the wis
dom of years has thrown around the vital
principles for its establishment among a
people, the foundations are undermined
and the structure is wrecked.

A PROMISE OF
DOLLAR WHEAT.

Dollar wheat has been the hope o poll
tcians, the desire of producers and the
dream of spectators. Mr.. Bryan four
years ago declared that the unlimited coin
age of silver at the magic ratio of sixteen
to one would cause wheat to advance from
about Sc cents to 81. which would not
have been positive gain, since the silver
dollar under free coinage would have I'M
dergone corresponding reduction in pur-
chasing power as compared with the gold
dollar or the dollar based on gold. Next,
young Mr.. Letter cornered the market and
tried to force the cereal above ST. He
succeeded, but could not keep the price
there, and lost sum variously estimated
at $3,0OO,OOO to $5,O0O,000
Now the Secretary of Agriculture pre-
diets dollar wheat before the end of the
year. His calculations do not depend on
a corner or other means of suspending the
operation of the law of supply and demand,
but upon natural conditions. In his opin-
ion the shortage in the American wheat
crop this year will amount to 100000, 900
bushels. This, together with the high
state of prosperity which prevails through
out the country and the requirements Gf
foreign lands, will suffice to advance the
price.
Secretary Wilson gives figures To show
how the economic status of the general
public influences wheat values. He says
that in 1894 the consumption of wheat and
wheat flour was only BAL bushels per in
habitant, people having recourse to cheap
er foods, while two years later it increased
to 4.7S bushels and last year to 595 bush
els. He expresses the belief that the con-
sumption this year will exceed all previous
figures, which will serve as an additional
factor in maintaining high prices.
Naturally, the farmers of the United
States will not Object if Mr. Wilson's pre-
dctions are verified. Last years crop
amounted to 541 300, s46 bushels, worth
1919, 545 $50. Prices in Chicago iluctu-
ated between 65 cents, the lowest quot; :
ton, in November, to 10! cents, the high
est igurc, in May. This year, although the
crop will not, according to the Secretary
of Agriculture, equal that of 1899 by 100,-
600, 900 bushels, an advance to 81 would
put into the pockets of producers, taking
the mean between the present price of -
cents and 81, 1891 800 ,S65, or $1l, SOC
more than last year.
Secretary Wilson's prediction, it must
be admitted, has strong element prob
ability, and is based upon considerations
which appeal t. everyonc.-B"HiD" r

In such crisis shall we stop to con-
slider whether the silver should be
worth more or less than it is? If a
mistake is made in the next admins
tration, should Bryan be elected, the
people can remedy it in four or eight
years. The country would not be

UNIQUE AGRICULTURAL
SCHOOL.

A number of prominent men throughout
New York have organized for the purpose
of starting school of practical agricul-
ture and horticulture at Briarcliff Manor,
N. Y. The school is to be opened on Sep
TENDER 18th. The men connectedsNWith
the project expect by demonstrating to the
young men throughout the country what
can be done in farming, by applying the
principles of general science to it, to tempt
minds Of the highest order to adopt it as a
profession worthy of their talents. The
men who vii Hsxethe executive manage
ment of the scHeain charge, chief among
them Director 7. Powell, say that
they will consideT that they have failed in
their purpose if, at tie end of two years,
which is to be the period of instruction,
they have failed to show to the student
that in no other direct could his efforts
be directed with greater Material results.
1t is because of the coihinercial feature
that Briarcliff Manor, which is only p
miles from New York, was chosen as the
proper place for the school,
The sponsors for the project include
Theodore L. Van Norden, president;
Abram S. Hewitt and William E. Dodge,
vice presidents; R. Fulton Cutting, treas
urer; Francis W. Holbrook, secretary;
George T. Powell, director, and a number
of other prominent persons.
The course of study which has been
mapped out will include horticulture bot
any, chemistry, geology, economic ento-
mo!ogy, building construction, stock hus-
bandry and bookkeeping. Several of these
branches will be taught in the orchard,
garden greenhouse, poultryyard and dairy.
The care of bush fruits, the culture of veg
etables and fruits under the glass, the
making of jellies and jams will be included.
Practical instruction will be given in the
use of fertilizers, hybridization and pro-
pagation of flowers, the methods of har-
vesting and marketing crops, the tillage of
soils, dairying, poultry and bee keeping,
and even table and house decoration.
The Briarcliff farms of Walter W. Law
are there. They include $500 acres of
land. Everything on this gigantic prop
erty is done according to the most adj
vanced ideas of science.
