Further Contraction.

TO keep gold, which has become
scarce in both countries, the Bank of
England and the Imperial Bank of
Germany have been forced to the ex-
pedient of advancing discount rates TO
6 and per cent. With the same OBJ
ject in view, and to relieve the strain
upon the reserve in the Imperial bank,
the Car of Russia has promulgated a
decree directing the issue of two new
series of notes, bearing per cent in
terest and dated January >, 1900, in
substitution for notes of the imperial
bank subject to redemption. Bearing
per cent interest it is improbable
that the notes will circulate. Holders
will keep them for the sake of the in

SHADE TIRE ES.
The Usage Orange One of the Best for
All PURPOSES.

~ fSSNS'
The Silver Maple is very inferior as
a shade tree. 1t is good for a few
years, but soon fail. Long rows of it
were planted in Columbus, O., in 1856,
but they are all gone. The wood is
weak and soon becomes broken and
struggling. Meehan says lit has the
largest head in proportion to it's trunk
of any tree he knows of. 1t is poor
tree to stand storms. It is much
planted because easy to obtain.
The Sycamore is a strong grower,
but that is about its only good quality.
1t is open headed and has long, strag.
Cling limbs. But the greatest objec-
ton to 1t Is the light brown fuzz,
which 1t continually throws off, espe.
cially while the tree is young. The
fuzz is disagreeable to breathe, and no
Sycamore should be planted where
many people pass and repass.
While many of the trees spoken of
are good, and each has its own special
merit, yet the society failed to men

the Usage Orange This neglected
kinds of uses than any other tree on
the continent of America. 1t is
strong grower. 1t is a beautiful, ro-
bust, storm-defying tree with wood
that outlasts cedar or locust. It pro-
tects itself (while young). In all my
travels l never saw a dead one or one
bored by beetles. The railroads give
double price for ties made of it. One
great railroad at my suggestion is
planting largely of it. For avenues in
a city nothing can equal it. have

The Trusts Own Everything.

The trusts have determined to own
and control all the great wealth of
this great country, all of its mines, all
of its railways, all of its food pro
ducts, everything that men eat and
wear and use, and, fortified as they
are behind the law as it stands, they
bid defiance to the people, and, using
the language of dead millionaire,
they answer when the protests of the
people go up, "The public be ID"
Owning as they do the president of
the United States; controlling as they
do both branches Of the national legis-
lature. and, with shame be it said, a
great many members of the judiciary;
debating the laws of the states, where
they have almost universal control of
the legislatures and with their I'M
counted millions corruptng the NUM-
cipal councils of the great cities, what
hope or recourse have the people? Let
the people oppose to the organized for
ces of corruption united front and
meet organization with organization.

Money CircuIation.

The Kansas City Times says:
"When the farmers of the west are
told by Republican stumpers this sum-
mer how Immensely Mckinley pros
perity has added to the money circula-
ton of the country, let them not lie
unmindful of the immense amount of
circulation of the country. let them
not be unmindful of the immense
amount Of circulation that has passed
between Gage and Rockefeller"
Let the thought also occur to the
farmers that the bulk of our circula-
ton medium is placed in the hands of
the Standard Oil combination and re-
mains there unless gilt edge security
is put up to get it out. That gilt edse
security is not wheat.

Question of Labor.

The question before the country will

ing classes of America be subjected to
a direct and never-ending connection
with the under-paid and half-clad
laborers of Asia, or shall the repub-
lie of America be transformed into
colonial empire with like consequence
es to the laboring classes? This, the
gravest question ever submitted to

The shaded portion of this map

which the prevailing famine is most
severely felt. Some districts outside
this area are suffering to a less eX-
tent, but their position has not been
clearly indicated, as attention is cen.

most imperatively demanded. As a
rule, the famines which now and then
affiict India are most severely felt in
regions which in normal years have a

because they are supplied with irriga-

shown by the tremendous increase in
