ACKNOWLEDGEMENT GODDARD has
brought suit against Colorado to en-
join the people of that state from
using all the water that flows in the
Arkansas river for irrigating pur-
poses. Colorado people treat the suit
as a big bluff. According to Con-
gresham Reeder irrigation tends to
increase the flow of water in a stream,
or at least he so testified in the suit
the Logan mill had with him seven
years ago.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine IN the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmOthers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iousness. Doctors were scarce and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer
mentstion of undigested food, regu-
late the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with head
aches and other aches. You only
need a few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form. to make you
satisfied there Is nothing serious the
matter with you. For sale by Geo

Gold. Famine. PestiIence.

The famine in India is the direc
result of the establishment of the colo
standard. The pestilence is the re-
suit of the famine. The gold stand
ard is responsible for both visitations
For centuries India has been absorb
ing silver. The wealth of the people
the hoardlngs of the middle and
poorer class was all in the white met
al. When silver sank in value, the
masses found themselves impover-
ished. When there was a partial
crop failure the people were too poor
to buy. All accounts of the hunger
n india agree that its cause Is not
lack of grain, but lack of means
with which to purchase it. The gov
eminent Is feeding 100000 day,
but this does not relieve the distress.
Neither do the large charitable con-
tributions which have been made
from all portions of Europe, England
and this country. To the horrors of
hunger have been added the horrors
of pestilence, and cholera is claiming
thousands of victims each day. There
are 93,50O,000 people in the afflicted
districts, and some idea of the NOR
tally that is certain to ensue can be
obtained when the assertion is made
on English authority that ten times
the aid now being rendered is needed
to check the work of death.
This is the picture of conditions in
India as the London, not the Ameri-
can, press Is showing it. Can the ad-
vocates of the gold standard contem-
plate it with satisfaction or compla-
cency? The assertion so frequently
made during this discussion of the
standards that the cause of silver was
the cause of civilization is vindicated
The distress, actual suffering III fact,
that the adoption of gold standard
has visited on our own people is we'll
known. It is but drop in the buck
ct compared to the absolute ruin and
disaster that has been wrought ID
silver-using countries like Indie.
The curse of God will be upon
those who have wrought all this
hanger and death by juggling with
the money standards, and thus i'm
poverlshing millions of people with
famine and pestilence as attendant
results.-RockY Mountain News.

cratic party by Editor Potts, of the
Patriot, has been made member Of the

he lost the prescription or what?-East

Mr.. Arnold is a better Democrat than
Mr.. Potts and that explains the action
Of the delegates at the state conven-

and the motive that inspires them is
fairly we'll understood in this district.
And the fact that the Salem township
Democratic committee passed resolu-
tions of condemnation of Potts and en-
dorsement of Arnold has probably
something to do with the matter.

is DEEP hOOTED.

There Is more trouble In the Orient
than simply at the gates of Peking.
The whole empire is swayed with dis
sension and the Chinese authorities are
doing little or nothing to put down the
revolt. The Chinese resent the influx of
foreigners. They have taken the posi-
tion that they are barred from other
countries and think that missionaries
should not come thousands Of miles
strange religion while they are denied
the privilege of going to the country
whence come the missionaries and be
taught there by example and induction.
While it is war against missionaries at
the outset, it is deeper-rooted than that
mere surface indication. 1t will not be
many days before the situation will be
made plain that the Chinese people are
up in arms against all foreigners and
the sentiment will not be confined to
the Boxers. 1t is the situation that has
been fomenting for years and it mustn't
be imagined for moment that the pig
headed fellows are fools, so far as their
enlightenment goes. They are a willy
lot and very apt. They learn very rap
idly and with the right kind of example
will make great strides for civilization

Australia are all joining in the military
jubilee because the armies Of Great
Britain have annihilated the only Chris
tian republic in either Africa or Asia.
Hence, we are at loss to understand
why the four great powers of Europe,
with the expected aid of his imperial
majesty, our Emperor William, are so
horribly shocked over the Boxer
movement in pagan China. The Chi
nese have been stepped in paganism
since paganism began. 1t Is the edu-
Gated classes in China that are behind
the Boxer movement-the college pro-
fessors, the civil and military mandarins,
and not the coolies or the commercial
traders. These classes all understand
that the Chinese are excluded from the
United States by law of congress. They
know that a pagan from China has no
right to land on our shores. Hence they
propose to stop the invasion Of so-called
Christian workers among the four hum
dred and fifty million of pagans In over
crowded China. a.
These pagan Boxers are nearer to
South Africa than England, and are
nearby neighbors to the Philippines,and
while they know that the mission of
Jesus Christ was brotherly love, peace
on earth and good will toward men, the
murderous armies of two boasted Chris
tian nations are slaughtering men of
their own faith by the thousands and
the tens Of thousands in Africa and the
tropical orient.
Have we not reason to infer that
these pig-headeG pagans, seeing with
their own eyes this terrible result from
the avant couriers of our Christian CIV
ilization In South Africa and the Phil
ippines have decided that IL Christiani-
ty stands for war, unjustifiable, unnec-
essary, and mercenary war-that the
sooner the Chinese empire gets rid of
Christian civilization, the safer and
better it will be for the future of the ce-
lestial empire. Hence, the Boxer
movement.
