South Bend, Ind, September 1.-Tha
meeting at this place tonight was held On
the court house grounds. Mr. shiveley
presided, but he contented himself with
a mere presentation OF Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryans speech was discussion of
the campaign, but special attention was
paid to the paramount issue, which he in
sisted Is the question of imperialism. He
insisted that the republicans were doing
all they could to convince the country that
finance was the principal issue, notwith-
standing their previous declaration that
silver Is dead issue. AS for himself he
had never doubted that tho position of the
Kansas City platform was correct, and
while this was true, it was still a fact that
the tendency toward imperialism was OF
more immediate concern than the gu s.
tiou OF finance. In the problem was com
prised the perpetuity of the Republic
whether we should have republican gov
eminent or not.
lie also discussed the question OF
trusts, the increase of the army and other
points, contending that the republicans
had been on both sides OF these questions.
He elaborated upon whether a Flip nc
citizen was citizen or subject and said
that the republican party had never form
ulated any policy FOR the government Of
these people. The spooner resolution was
the most definite formulation OF this sub
ject. Interpreting this resolution, Mr.
Bryan said that it meant that when the
war is over-NOBODY KNOWS WHEN TT
WILL BE-the president will do some
thing--NOBODY KNOWS WHAT-and will
keep at it-NoBoDY KNOWS HOW LONG
until congress does something-NG-
BopY CAN GUESS WHAT, except res
publicans"
He added: Are you not ashamed OF
that pollcy?''
Mr. Bryan, defending his course In ad-
vocating the ratification Of the peace
treaty said he considered 1t preferable
to have the treaty ratified to having an
other one made by the same parties. he

the question entirely.

More than 25,o00,0O0 grains Of qui-
nine have been consumed by American
soldiers during the past year. In some
cases men who were in the hospitals
In Cuba and Porto Rico used as much
as 800 grains week, and hardly any
have failed to use the drug at some
period Of their service. 1t is seated
that the people Of the United States
consume one-third of the quinine Of
the world. the drug being used ir the
preparation of many patent medicines,
tonics. bitters, cold cures, etc. as well
as in pills and in bulk. and consider
able quantity is consumed in the manu-
facture Of hair tonics. The official fig-
ures in the treasury bureau Of statis-
tics show that there were imported last
year. into the United States. 1888 ,O56,-
$50 grains of quinine. and as there was
practically no export Of this article,
this means that the consumption OF
ouinine was about twenty grains for
each inhabitant AS is well known,
duinine. Peruvian bark. and calisaya
bark are the prodNcts of the einchona
tree. which is native OF western South
America. more particularly Of Peru
and Ecuador. Now. however, but a
small part Of the supply comes from
that region. At present two-thirds OF
.he quinine consumed is produced In
Java from cultivated trees. For many
years the Dutch government was urged
70 undertake the cultivation Of this
plant from Peru. Finally this was ac-
complished and a large number OF
specimens of the different varieties
were obtainable by botanists, who took
them to Java in 1852. The British
government also started clnehona
plantations in India which now pro
duce large quantities Of cuinine.

PROFITLESS TALK.
It is Altogether too Prevalent
on our Streets.

Did it ever occur to you how
much idle ,profilless andsometimes
wicked talk is INDUCED on the
streets or in the various places OF
business. Some old eoger will
declare "It's no use talking"
which applied TO his kind is cor
rect, and take half hour Of the
time Of those about him--if they
will sluy-in arguing some point
on when he is densely ignorant.
Then three or four young "laver-
icks" get together and begin
"guying' one another and using
profane or indecent language and
perhaps end up with an ungentle-
manly suffer.
dow much better to spend the
time in reading the papers or some
good book, aud discuss the SUBJ
jects you have read. Mental rec
reasion and diversion is absolutely
necessary, especially to the young,
but the appearances are that this
want Of our young men is unlikely
to suffer, even though there be
revolutionary changes from the
present. If you cannot talk OF
something elevating, be silent.
