can't do it. They are about us

Then why dOn't we all have
this disease ? Simply because
these germs cannot gain foot

weak that the germs master.
The body must be well supplied

when the blood is poor and the

DR.. Henry Brown of Batesville
was here this week on business.
In these days there is a class
Of people ready at all times to
enforce on other people their in
dividual notions of personal
rropriety. If they had their way
it would be a tough old world for
the majority. They imagine
they are moralists. They are
fooled about that-they are only
meddlers-blamed meddlers. We
hate to meet a drunk man espec'
tally if he wants to- throw his
arms around our neck and swear
he is our friend. Sometimes
they do that; but we are not half
as much disguised with him as
we are with the fellow that's al
ways lecturing us and telling us
of our sins. That fellow is a
blackguard meddler: but he don't
know it. He thinks he's been
appointed by the Lord to 60 up
and down the world letting folks
know that he is a little better
than his neighbors. He really
don't care very much whether
Or not you.go to the devil, he's
only anxious to let you know he's
going the other way. He thinks
he's a blessing to the world,
when he's only a trouble and a
hindrance to it. If he's in a
church he's a nuisance and if his
particular fad is temperance he
makes many decent fellow long
for spite to 60 on a bowling
drunk. The people whose church
and politics and ways aare THE
thing, while everything else is all
wrong-we arc deal afraid Of
that kind Of man or woman, there
is always something seriously
wrong with them.
The sweetest people on this
earth are those who attend to
their own business and allow
other folks to do the same. If a
man wants to call a spade spade
they allow him to do it. If he
wants to say d--n it on his own
account they allow him to do
that. If they are Methodist and
their ncighbor wants to be a
Baptist they have nc kick COM
ing about that. Such people are
as clean and pure as the breath
of an April morning and as silent
and generous. They are like
Christ, He didn't talk about his
neighbors, He wasn't eternally
finding fault with the little fool
mistakes Of the common folks.
He just went about doing good
and blessing them by an example
of a pure and blameless life--by
his gentle words and by his won
drous love for the lowly and
erring.

To read one or two Des Moines
papers one would think that Mr.. Cum
minis overshadowed the state conven-
ton, controlling the nominations and
coming within On ace of controlling the
state committee These claims are really
openly made by the space writer's on
those papers. They say Cummins encom-
passed the defeat of Hobart and Nor,
row and Blanchard and Remley and
Sims and all the fellows who failed
and nominated those who succeeded.
Who is Cummins that he should run
and control the nominations of the
state? IfDes Moines politicians think
they can land their candidate in the
senate by having him dictate state
politics, they may be mistaken. Iowa
republicans do not need dictator.

Four years ago Fir. E. Baxter and
myself were going over Audubon coun.
ty putting up the tent for republican
mass meetings. Well, at that time
one William J. Bryan was going about
the country talking from the hind end
of railroad car. / will give you Q
part of his two minute speech which he
gave at Newton, Ia, Aug. 10, 1896.
He used the following language:
''The law which we base our fight
upon is as sure as the law of gravita
ton. If we have gold standard
prices are as sure . fall as the stone
which is thrown into the air.
MIR. Bryan was wrong in his state
ment, for according to our most relia
BILE statistician, Carroll ID. Wright
prices upon commodities gradually in
creased. On October LIST, six months
after VIM. Mo Kinley became president
the price level had risen from SIS tc
$50, and in July 1899 to 929. 1t is
estimated that the price level will this
year reach 100, which will show rise
of twenty-five per cent in four years
In 1896 the per capita circulation was
S2l.10. Three years after Mr.. McKin,
ley's election the per capita circulation
had increased to S26.77.

Does the Rainfall Change?
(RockfOrd Register }


We are asked whether, with the re-
moval of the timber of the country
and the cultivation of the soil, the
average rainfall of a given territory
shrinks? No, it does not The rain
fall will, of course, vary from year to
year as it has always done, but the
average precipitation will remain the
same. 1t is true that with the removal
of the timber and the cultivation of
the soil, drouth periods probably be-
come mare marked, this caused by the
more rapid removal of the water from
the surface into the artificial bitches
and water ways, and also by the greater
amount evaporated from the soil by
growing crops. These two agencies
account for the drying out of the large
areas of wet land through the west.
The rainfall of the Mississippi valley
comes not from moisture evaporated
from the soil of the valley itself, but
almot wholly from the water pumped
up by the sun from the gulf of Mexico
This being the case, it follows that SC
long as the gulf remains and the sun
keeps at work, there can be no visible
change in the rainfall of the valley
itself. The lesson which needs to be
learned under the changed condition
is how best to conserve the rainfall, TO,
| that undergoes no change.

One of them has 1000, 900, the other
AZ, 100000 acres within its boundaries;
either the Mississippi or the Missouri
river flows through large part of one
or the other of them; one state con
tains 10000 lakes-the finest of their
kind, and this lake region is a regular
park land, where the best of land and
timber are found; the other state has a
wonderful valley-the Red River-that
is the greatest wheat producing valley
in the world. These states are Mime
sofa and North Dakota.
For general and mixed farming,
small fruits, etc, Minnesota cannot be
beat. For wheat, flax and other
grains, North Dakota is unsurpassed.
To the surprise of many, corn is easily
raised in either state. One county in
North Dakota raised more than 200, 600
bushels of corn, yet this is the great
wheat growing state of the Union.
The Indians have raised corn there for
hundred years.
