now on the matket, and some 25O to 300
cases have been sold. giving great salts

fields of Pennsylvania. 1t is high test,
and guaranteed to be the best. If your
lamp smokes, sputters and burns dimly,
try the Pennsylvania oil, and your

JANEsvILLE, Wis, Dec. 7. 1900.

The damp weather of the past several
days has put the hanging tobacco into
good case and made it possible for buy
ers to make critical examination, so a
number of them are riding and making
some purchases. Prices range from 6 to
s cents for the better grades and from 4
to for the damaged crops, although
the sale OF the latter grade is limited.
Quite number of farmers have deliv-
cred their tobacco in this market, several
crops having been delivered last Satur-
day, also ali this week. Some of the
crops delivered are in good condition,
but there others that are in too high
case and the bundles contain much to.
6acco that should have been put into
the filler Crude or thrown out entirely
We would especially caution the farmers
to not let the tobacco get into too high
case before taking it down. Also to
keep all trash in the manure heap The
farmers have received good prices this
year and should deliver their tobacco in
as good condition as possible.
This has been a very quite week in
ola goods and no large sales have been
reported. Farm and Home.

point of the bayonet, and third cavalry

our right from very broken country
around Iketlnf mountain, hope our
casualties are less than 100. which
considering the extreme length OF
our position. is much less than ex-
pected. The whole attack was direct
ed by Hildyard, whose dispositions
were extremely good. The artillery,
Tenth brigade, and the Third cavalry
brigade did the most work.

The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1900-07-08


No political party has ever met under
such favorable circumstances as did the
Republican national convention in Phil
adelphia. The unanimous nomination
of both the candidates for the offices
Of president and vice-president was
unprecedented. Mr.. Mckinley has
earned and well deserves the compli-
ment. The prosperity Of the country
under his administration alone merits
it. without taking into consideration
his able conduct Of our affairs of state
during the war with Spain. There was
a notable difference between the har-
inony Of the Republican party at ST.
Louis. in the convention Of 1896, and at
Philadelphia. Last month every Re
publican was working for the strongest
ticket and there was a unanimous YER
dict for Mckinley and Roosevelt. The
latter has endeared himself to the peo-
pie by his clean and honest adminis-
tration Of such public offices as he
has held, as well as by his bravery in
Cuba. They are both strong candidates,
politically and personally. and win gain
in strength as the campaign progresses.
