OLIVE CROP IN FRANCE.
Impression Prevailing in the Conntr,
That 1t VIII Fall short as IL
Did Last Year.

"An impression prevails that the
olive crop in France will be a disap-
pointment this year, as it was last"
writes Consul Skinner at Marseilles.
"French farmers are disposed to aban-
don the cultivation of olive groves, as
In recent years the prices obtained
for the oil have not been satisfactory
1t is true there was a sharp advance
last year, due to a shortage in the
crop; but the highest prices reached,
about 80 cents per kilogram for best
French oil, were low as compared with
the old-time prices, which held firm
at so cents. Because of this fact and
the discovery that other articles can
be grown with greater profit the acre
age devoted to olives is annually be-
coming less in this region, and my at
tention has been called to the uproot-
ing of 10000 trees during the last six
months in this department alone.
Spain and Italy. with cheaper land
and cheaper labor, and more particu-
larly Tunis and Algeria, are offering a
competition too severe for southern
France. The French colonies last
named are especially adapted to the
successful prosecution of the business"

SENATOR ]. B. FORAKER
Tells Why Republican Party
Should Succeed.
PROSPERITY SAFE UNDER ITS RULE

etrikine Proof of Cap city of Republican
Party to Conduct AGairB Wisely, No
ouly at Home, but In Our Foreign
Relations.
What every one wants is the best
possible agency to administer our pub
lie affairs, having regard to the pros
perity of the country and the people
of all classes, and our credit and honor
as a nation. 1t must be manifest with
out argument that these purposes are
safe in the handsNof the present ad-
ministration. The country was in a
state of. bankruptcy and ruin SO far as
business was concerned, when Presi-
dent Mckinley was elected four years
ago. He came into power pledged to
apply Republican policies, and there
by restore prosperity. He has kept
that pledge. The first act of his adj
ministration was to call congress in

Congress did the work thus assigned
to it, and from the very day that
statute became law until now, we
have had prosperity of the most un-
precedented character. Our industries
have been rapidly developed, our labor
has been protitably employed, our do
mestic exchanges have exceeded any
thing ever before known, while our
trade with the rest of the world has
grown to greater proportions than the
most sanguine anticipated. The bal

prosperity to continue, we should let
well enough alone and re-elect McKin-
ley. Everybody knows-even Demo-
crats-that if he is reelected we will
move forward without jar; but who
knows what would happen-or would
not happen-if Bryan should be
elected?
But the capacity of the Republican
party for the successful administra-
tion of our national government is
even more strikingly illustrated by
what has been accomplished under
this administration in our foreign re-
lations. We were not prepared for
war, but were called upon to meet its
emergencies. The result was a tri-
umphant success of the most brilliant
quality. The admiration of the whole
world was excited, and justly so, by
our victories. The results Of that war,
not sought, but forced upon us, have
brought to us new and difficult prob
lens. Our Democratic friends insisted
that the ratification of the treaty of
peace with Spain, whereby the Philip
pine islands were ceded to us,
should be followed by an official ex-

The grounds are now being put in
condition for the meeting. The race
course, which is the best in the county,
will be in the best of shape for the
races, which are expected to be ahead
of anything of the kind seen at a
county fair here. The purses offered
are ample to secure some fast stock
and these will be a great attraction
this year.
Two ball games have been provided
for the amusement of the lovers of
this sport. The games will be called
at 10 o'clock in the forenoon, so as to
not interfere with the races. Wednes-
dav the Yuma nine and Coal Valleys
will play. Both these clubs are capa-
BILE of putting up good game. Thurs
day the Albany club and Port Byron
Blues viii play. The teams are very
evenly matched and have played to-
gether recently in Port Byron, with a
very close score. With these two
games in the forenoon and the races
in the afternoon nearly every one will
want to attend both DAYS. The at
fractions are certainly something that
not many will want to miss.

sHARKEy LOSES.

New York, June 27.-For the first
time in his pugilistic career, Tom
Sharkey went down to decisive defeat
last night in the arena OF the Seaside
Athletic club and big Gus Rubin, the
Ohio pugiliSt, was his conQuerer. 1t
was a clean knockout that came after
fifteen rounds of fighting that made
a memorial ling battle.
Save in the matter OF aggressive
ness, Rubin led from the face-off in
every feature of the game and at all
times had the fight we'll in hand.
Sharkey did not give up his place in
the line of first class heavyweights
without desperate struggle. No
soldier ever gave more desperate bat
tie: no man sinking to unconscious
ness every clung more determinedly to
his vitality. Even at the end, when
blinded by the blows of his powerful
opponent, and dulled mentally by the
battering of his foe, he chung instinc.

man who was his master.

guilt or innocence unsettled. COun-
