WHITE MAN TURNED YELLOW.

Great CONSERVATION was felt by
the friends of M. A. Hogarty of
Lexington, KY, when they saw he
was turning yellow. His skin slowly
changed color, also his eyes, and he
suffered terribly. His malady was
Yellow Jaundice. He was treated
by the best doctors, but without
benefit. Then he was advised to
try Electric Bitters, the wonderful
stomach and liver remedy, and he
writes: "After taking two bottles
L was wholly cured" A trial proves
its matchless merit for all stomach,
liver and kidney troubles, Only soc.

For Vigorous Enforcement.

So far as platform is concerned the
Republican party in Aroostook county
is all right for the enforcement of the
Prohibitory law.
The following resolution was offered
by G. E. Dunn Of Houlton, and was
unanimously adopted:
"Resolved, That we are opposed to the
present system of enforcing the prohi-
bitory law known as the Bangor plan and
we demand of the high sheriff and
county attorney of this county vigoro.
US and nncompromising war upon the
liquor traffic not for revenue, but for
humiliation and we pledge our hearty
support and assistance to the candidates
who will carry out this resolution
II other counties would do likewise
and officials and courts and citizens
would stand together for enforcement of
this and all other criminal laws it would
be much to the credit of our State and
for the great good of thousands of
people in each county.

Bryan and stevenson.

William j. Bryan WAS nominated
July 8, for President on platform
denouneing imperialism and declaring
unequivocally for the free coinage of
silver at the ratio of 16 10 /. Both can
didate and platform were approved by
the convention unanimously.
The convention has said it and imper.
ialism must be used as the paramount
issue because some Of the party leaders
not Bryan, the cqndidate-believe that in
this way more votes can be secured
than by placing the greatest emphasis
upon free silver ut Is TO l. Bryan had
his own way and WAS, practically, the
convention, excepting in the placing of
the Imperialism plank, as the leading
one in the party platform. A large
minority of the party was in favor OF
modifying the silver plank slightly in
order that it might be less obnoxious
to sound money Democrats and thereby
secure a larger vote in some of the
middle states but the candidate insisted
upon the declaration for silver being as
emphatic as 1t could be made and his
influence was the controlling one in the
convention.
u The Democratic national ticket was
completed, Friday, by the nomination
of Adai f. Stevenson Vice President
with Cleveland, for Vice President.
The nomination was made on the first
ballot, state after state Joining In the
wild scramble to record their support
of the winning candidate. 1t was not
accompanied by any such frantic dem
onstration of approval as had marked
the proceedings at previous stages, al
though the result followed a spirited
and at times highly dramatic contest
between the advocates OF Stevenson,
Towne, Hill and the lesser candidates.
HilPs name WAS presented to the
convention, and he would probably
have been nominated but he took the
platform and absolutely declined the
honor,

Following is a more detailed and prob
ably nearer correct account OF the cyclone
at Moore's Mills and vicinity June ~,
than that of last week
George Taylor was the first man to
suffer, his crops being injured very much
and ell part of his house, glass badly
broken and flood of water came into the
windows taking most of the plastering in
the kitchen and moving that part OF the
foundation. Three chimneys in the
house of Charles Fitzgerald were blown
off close to the roof and roof of woodshed
blown off. A section of the roof OF
Frank Penney's barn was blown off and
other damage to crops. Most of the
glass in the house of Lafayette Ames,
near Moody's mill, was broken OUT and
the rooms were flooded with water. A
dry house of Ames was DESTROYED, rool
blown into the stream. Fred Rolfe, hall
mile north east, was the next man TO
suffer, having about 50 bee hives upset
and boxes srewed in every direction, one
chimney blown off, barn injured and
crops badly destroyed John Butts
barn, just across the way. blown fat to
the ground. The orchard of Cecil Gard
ner, near Col. Mitchell's, nearly destroy
ed, and the Colonel's crops and orchard
very badly injured. Next below we find
nearly all the glass broken out of Elder
Jackson's house. Next to Frank Pen
ney's we notice the stable of Dexter Holt
blown fat to the ground and leg of his
horse broken and had to be killed.
Frank Fosters barn was DESTROYED
leaving a part of the walls standing.
The next building to suffer was the loss
of two thirds Of the school house roof and
the school was in session at the time and
soon after the scholars climbed out of the
windows and ran in every direction to the
neighbours, badly frightened. One OF
Frank Fitzgeralds little girls ran nearly
home and was found by the roadside
nearly exhausted. The large barn oil
Salem Edmunds was unroofed and almost
a total loss. leaving the walls standing.
His stable near the barn was moved from
its foundation. Rufus Williams barn
was totally destroyed, leaving only part
of the walls standing, The wood lots oil
Edmunds and Williams were so badly
blown down that roads had to be cul
before they could get their cattle up. A
section of the roof of Josiah Fernald's
barn was taken off The barn of George
Foster, north of his home place, was
moved five or six feet from its foundation
and otherwise damaged. The large barr
of Elijah and George Foster was damaged
in the roof by the roof timbers being
moved out of place and all that saved the
roof both barn doors blew open and thu

A Summer Feast.

The summer announcement of features
which the Boston journal is making Is
particularly enticing. Next Sunday be-
gins a series of stories by Seutnas Nc
Manus, the famous Irish writer, whose
work has attracted so wide attention H.
this country within the past year, and
whose stories appear frequently in the
high-class magazines. A particular
readable series, too, is that of illustrated
articles about some of the most famous
of New England summer resorts
articles that tell interestingly of the peo-
pie who are the central figures in the
summer colonies each year. The series
includes, among other places, Dublin, n
H., Manchester, Beverly, Newport,
bingham, Nahant, Mount Desert, Me-,
Bedford, Glouchester. The half-toHe
illustrations, which have done so much
10 make the journal famous among
newspapers, will be continued during
the summer.

There has been some speculation in re-
gard to the course Senator Hoar of Mas
sachusetts would take In the coming
campaign, but all uncertainty has been
removed by recent speech made by
him at Marshtield In which he concisely
defines his position in these words; II
propose to support the Republican party
this year because think it is right so to
do, because | think the welfare of the
Commonwealth and the country and the
future of Justice and freedom and
righteousness lie that way; and if |

CrOker's Hatred of Hill.

Croker's performance revealed him
more of political brigand than ever.
1t seems that even Van Wyck presented
to the resolutions committee a draft
of platform which embodies substan-
TALLY Mr.. Hills method of dealing
with 16 to /. That it was hatred of the
senator more than anything else that
moved the Talnmany boss is still more
strongly established by Van Wyck's
course. Mr.. Croker evidently cares
nothing for harmony in New York
this year. He doesn't appear to have
the faintest expectation of carrying
the state for BRYAN, whatever may be
the platform.-Ex.
