Pleased With the Work.

The prompt and careful respons-
es to the recent request by the
Director of the Census, for infor-
nation relating to canals and
bitches, indicate that the import
ance and value of complete and
accurate Census of Irrigation are
appreciated by those engaged in
this branch of agriculture.
Director Merriam is very well
pleased with the great interest
evinced in the work of collecting
data, and is confident that with
the continued assistance of the ir-
rigators and the press, the present
investigation will be success.
The returns from the prelimi-
nary inquiries furnish evidence of
the material progress made in arid
America and give promise of an

advance in the twentieth century,
exceeding the wonderful develop
ment of the Mississippi Valley
during the past decade. The
boundary line, which SO long has
divided the arid and humid regions,
will no longer stay the onward
march of agriculture. To-day it is
realized that Just beyond that line
lies an empire greater and far more
resourceful than any yet conquer
ed. With the narrowing of the
unoccupied limits of Government
lands in the humid zones the
question of reclaiming the arid
and subhumid regions grows in
importance, and is to-day claiming
the attention of the wisest minds
of the nation.
Many of the preliminary sched-
ules sent out in December and
January have been received and
are already tabulated. The mail
ing of the principal schedules is
being pushed as rapidly as posi-
bic.
The questions in this schedule
are numerous and important. Di-
rector Merriam requests that they
be carefully answered, as upon
these answers an accurate and
perfect Census of Irrigation large
ly depends.
The scope of the present inquiry
is broad. Its purpose is to deter
mine the present conditions and
results of irrigation, and to tabu-
late the same in such a manner
that they may be fully compre-
hended by every one. Such a
work, successfully conducted, will
result in bringing about a more
complete realization of the fact
that the development of irrigation
is affecting the prosperity of our
nation as we'll as the progress and
stability of many Western States,

1t is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while await
ing the arrival of the doctor. An
Albany IN. " dairyman called at a
drug store there tor doctor to come
and see his child, then very sick with
Group. Not finding the doctor in, he
left word for him to come at once on
his return. He also bought a bottle
of Chambcrlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some re-
lict until the doctor should arrive,
In a few hours he returned, saying
the doctor need not come, as the child
was much better. The druggist, Mr..
Otto Sholz, says the family has since
recommended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy to their neighbors and
friends until he has a constant de-
mand for it from that part OF the
country. For sale by Flaws.

tional adjustment is impossible and
even undesirable, records itself in
favor of confnlng the money of
this country to the metal smallest
in quantity and most limited in
production; in favor of eliminating
from its currency the more plent1-
full metal which hitherto has been
linked with gold in the support OF
values and just relations between
debtors and creditors. 1t thus
takes the initiative in a new
scramble for gold among the ma
tions of the world
If the Republican party would
declare that it has faith in the
quantitative theory of money, that
it believes the basic money should
be increased in proportion to pop
ulation and business, but that the
large increase in the production of
gold furnishes a sufficient assur-
ance that the world will receive
the needed additional supply, and
that if it does not steps will be
taken to add silver to it by BIZ
metallic union as a part of our
monetary system, we would at
least have a declaration, after
these long years of suffering and
distress, caused by an abandon
ment of the principles of monetary
science, that would indicate that
the party was right in theory, and
that in the end, if the production
of gold was not sufficient to take
the place of silver now being
eliminated from use, and to meet
the reasonable expectations for an
increased volume of money, its
practice would conform to its the
ory either by the use of silver or
some other basic money, requiring
no redemption save receivability
for the public and private dues.
But the action of the Republican
party gives no such comfort. 1t
declares for no principle, but Sim
plv asserts itself as devoted to a
particular metal as the source
from which money shall be made,
regardless of its insuficiency in
production to meet the increasing
wants of the world.
Against such a declaration the
intelligent sentiment of the Coun-
try will yet protest in terms that
will be unmistakable.

THE GOLD STANDARD.

Congressman Francis G. Newlands
has been received. His indict-
ment against the party now in
power is as follows:
The Indictment, therefore, which
we present against the Republican
party is that while in its platform
declarations it has at times indi-
Gated a friendliness to silver, it has
never yet by any authoritative
declaration, either in its platform
utterances, the reports of its Con
gressional committees, or in legis-
lative action, declared any prin-
ciple of momentary science upon
which the country rely as a guide
for future action; that it has either
openly and avowedly declared the
policy of contraction of the basic
money of the country or that it
has sought by evasion and equivo-
cation to defeat the force and the
strength of the movement toward
a bimetallic monetary system,
1t commenced its policy of con
traction at the close of the civil
war by retiring the greenbacks
and by denying silver access to
the mints, and that, too, at a time
when the addition to our pOpu
lation of 100000 of Southern
people, whose currency had been
DESTROYED as the result of the war
demanded that the tools of eX-
change should be increased rather
than diminished, 1t yielded an
unwilling and grudging submission
to the Bland Act only after the
Presidents veto and after the bill
had been forced upon it by the in
teligent sentiment of the country.
After yielding to an increased
coinage through the Sherman Act,
as a part of the compromise by
which the Mckinley bill was pass
ed, it joined with Cleveland in
forcing its repeal.
Having promised international
bimetallism in the last campaign
by a platform solemnly pledging
continued and earnest efforts to
that end, it made pertunctory com
pliance only with its provision,
and withdrew negotiations in the
face of a friendly letter from the
British ministry inviting further
negotiations.
Ignoring the fact that the coun-
tries interested in securing larger
volume of money were debtor
countries, the countries that lacked
money and indicated their want
by borrowing from other nations,
and that the debtor and producing
nations of the world have greater
absorbing capacity for new money
than the creditor nations; that the
hunger of debtor nations for more
money was evidenced by the large
issues of paper money existing IN
the world, little of which was kept
upon a parity with gold, the Re
publican administration ignored
the nations that hungered for new
money and sought only conference
with creditor nations whose inter
est was in favor of an approaching
standard of money rather than in
favor of a standard which would
maintain stable values.
Invited by the British ministry
to present to it the assurances OF
the extent to which other Coun-
tries would join in supporting sill
yer, a Republican administration,
vested by Congress with the full
mower to conduct negotiations with
each individual country or to call

Editor Pioneer:
In rolling my optics oyer the locals in
your paper of last week noticed that
my sister and myself had made a des-
perate attempt at getting sick.
Now I do not know who told you, but
he hit the facts square in the face con.
corning my case, whoever he is.
Here is how it was:
You see I am hard man to get to
work. but after you get me started I am
terror (?) to root. have fought it
out on that line" all summer and at last
have become tired, Qong ago. and the
only way to get layoff was to get
deathly ill. This I concluded to do and
lay awake all one night thinking of
some dreadful disease that would scare
the whole push, but just what to get
was what puzzled me.
First I decided to try pneumonia, and
then dyspepsia, and later rheumatism.
I made some terrible attempts at the
former, sitting in the shade of the house
with the mercury bobbing up and down
between 1899 and 112o with the sun
shining against the south side of the
house. I failed to contract a severe
cold, and to get dyspepsia I drank a
quart of acid vinegar, swallowed whole
cucumber then swallowed pan Of milk
(all but the PAM. By this time I didn't
feel pretty good and turned to rheuma-
tism. Having little of this in my an
atomy seized hammer and went af-
tor my ankles and other joints, as
though I had suddenly turned trip ham,
mer.
Now to enumerate my struggles.
Ny pneumonia resulted in slight
spell of sneezing, my dyspepsia, mere
sour stomach, but the last was grand
success. My joints swelled as though ]
was in the last stages of glanders. ]
sent for the doctor and while he was
coming sneaked out and climbed uI
and slid down the wind mill tower until
saw him coming. Whom he arrived
had up quite heat, and began to tel
him how I felt. He said: "Yes! Yes!'
three or four times, and while I was try
ing to finish my tale Of woe, he rammec
long glass in under my tongue and
was unable to squak. He then sale
what he wanted to and after he finished
he rolled up his sleeves, jammed his foo
against my diaphragm, seized the glass
with both hands and jerked me clea
out of my moorings, then told me m,
temperature was 1O4 Q in the shade. B,
hookay! came near jumping straigh
up and giving whoop, for the who'll
family knew that was very sick. (Ha
HaD
Well I hobbled around on one foo
and grandad's cane, and you bet the
all thought that I was tottering on tn
brink of the grave. However, I wa
sick until I got rested. didn't car
much about work until began to fee
better.
But I forgot to tell you about the me
dicine. The doctor prescribed som
kind of a mixture which was not at a.
unpleasant to take, the only trouble bt
ing such small doses. A teaspoonfr
three times day. Just think of it, b
must think my mug will hold "he1
