China.

The situation in China is becom-
ing most intensely interesting. 1t is
now supposed that the relief column
has reached Pekin unless it has
been stopped at Tung Chow, a wall
ed and fortified city about twenty
miles from Pekin. The Chinese
soldiers seem to have become panic
stricken and the best authorities
don't anticipate much trouble in
reaching Pekin, and it is even hint
ed that the resistance at the walls
of the city will be feeble.
1t now looks like the ministers
will be speedily relieved or the re-.
lief column will find that it Is not
strong enough to accomplish the
object of It's organization. We be-
lieve Pekin will fall within a week.

called 1.-THE Campaign Forum. In this
department the arguments of the two
great parties will be presented, side By
side, day by day. To conduct the DEM
ocratic side Mr. Jones has selected an d
formally appointd Mr.. Willis j. Abbott
ocratic National Committee, and, for
tue Republican side Mr.. Hanna has Sc
lected and appointed the famous jour
nalist and literateur, Mr.. Murat Hal
stead. Upon learning the decision Of
the two Chairmen, The Star immediate
ly engaged the two gentlemen and on
Sunday, Aug. 10, the Campaign For
UNI will be inaugurated to be continu-

Then and Now.

We give below an extract from
Bryan's Baltimore speech four years
ago. The conditions have changed
somewhat since that time and some
how the sentiment don't sound just
right now;
eff we win this fight now reform
will begin at once; if we are defeat
ed in this campaign there is nothing
before the people but four years
more of harder times and greater
agitation, and then the victory will
come. The Republican party can
not restore prosperity to this country
as long as that prosperity is doled
out to us by foreigners, who profit
by our distress. Businessmen COM
plain that business conditions are
bad; l warn them that business
conditions cannot be improved by
following out the financial policy
which has brought business to its
present condition.

Broom Corn.

over the good crops, now assured.
1t is very true that good ram a
few days back would have helped
out very materially the Indian corn
and would have, probably, round
ed out the points of the early corn
a little better, yet we have the
best corn crop this year that we
have had for years, in this locality.
We found the broom corn men all
busy cutting and scraping broom
corn, all too busy to talk to loafer,
and only intent on saving their
large crops of broomcorn.
! We find the Savonburg region has
the largest crop of broom corn it
has raised for many years. The
acreage is materially larger and the
yield per acre is going to be unusu-
ally large for this locality.
The quality of thcc prush is unifor-
mly good and compares very ia
, yerably with last years fine quality
There seems to be larger quantity
of small pine top stuff among every
crop this year than last but not
enough to intefere with the sale.
The reason is probably that the
season has been so favorable that
every sucker threw out head.
The only danger that threatens
the corn now is, the heat and drouth
have ripened it very rapidly the last
week and it is all coming on at once
ready for cutting. Crops that were
planted two weeks apart are matur-
ing together and it seems impossible
to get men and save it from the dam
age of over ripeness.
Every man, woman and boy in
the neighborhood is pressed into
service, yet there is great demand
for hands. A hundred cutters could
get work at Savonburg, could they
be had, till the crop is saved.
We believe the Savonburg district
will have GOO tons of fine broom
corn this year. The price will be
good and this community will be
the richest little spot in Kansas
this year. Charley Bloom is the
biggest grower in the district, he
having in hundred acres,
There are number of other
large crops that we did not have
time to inspect. We found Mat
Johnson, one of the best producers
in the community, knocked out with
malaria, and only nine men at work
in his forty acre field when lie should
have had at least twenty. To say
that poor Mat was in a stew is draw
ing it very mildly.
The Ericksons, Swansons, Lin
quists and Christopher have fine
large crops, but the men were too
busy to be seen.
Last fall we advised the farmers
to plant their broom corn early this
year and sell to the first buyer that
came along, but conditions have
materially changed and we now say,
save your corn in the very best pos
sible condition and wait for the mar
ket to open up in good shape.
Discouraging reports still come in
from the Illinois crop and the cen
trail Kansas crop is very badly dam
aged by dry weather and chinct
bugs. No one can yet tell wha'
prices will be, but good paying
prices are now assured,

IreIand's National Flower Greatly -
Eyideuc. On st. Patrick's Day.
A London dispatch says: Shamrock
day promises to vie with primrose day
in the hearts of the people, Judging
from the enthusiasm with which the
loyalists ell over the United Kingdom
celebrated. From Windsor castle,
where the queen observed the day by
wearing sprig of genuine four-leafed
shamrock, to the east end of the slums
of London, nearly everyone sported
something in the shape of a green
flag. A word from her majesty has
turned the emblem of semi disloJalty
into badge of honor and has made
the shamrock the most priced OF all
the plants in the British isles.
By the queens o,der. the bells Of
the curfew of Windsor castle honored
St. Patrick Saturday morning; Irish
airs played by the Grenadiers enliv-
ened the queens luncheon, and Lon
don's mansion house floats new Irish
flag, with the Union Jack in the upper
corner.
Most of the government officials
hoisted the Irish flag and the clubs
were similarly decorated, the officials
all wearing the green. The lord chief
Justice, Lord Russell Of Killowen. set
the example in the law courts and all
the judges followed his example of
wearing the shamrock below their
ermine collars.
