The Sale of the Danish West Indies
 Price Too Small.

Copenhagen, Aug 24.-A prominent politician in the counsels of the minis fry to-day told representative of s-he Associated Press that the sale of the Danish West Indies, 1t was confident ly expected. would be consummated before the close of the present year.
 The king and the new cabinet have both concluded that it is absolutely necessary for Denmark to dispose of the islands. and majority of the Riesdag favors the sale. as does 1Iso the public. The only dissatisfaction. the Correspondents informant further said, arises in connection with the price, s, ,75O.OOO being considered too small. However, the final approval of the Rigsdag is believed to be assured, and 1t is expected that legislative rati- ffaction will be given in Washington in December.

In our style Of climate, with it's sud-
den changes Of temperature = rain,

children, friends and relatives are so
frequently taken from US by neglected
colds, half the deaths resulting direct
ly from this cause. A bottle OF Bo-

your home for immediate use will
prevent serious sickness, large doc

A revolution is contemplated in
France to overthrow the Republic
and set up another Empire with
Prince Louis Napoleon as boss.
Louis had laid his plans to have him
self installed as Emp in purple togs
with the blare of trumpets on Sept.
Is, but the proposed revolution seems
to have Slipped a cog" the police
having placed an obstruction in the
machinery. Prince Louis reminds
one of Victor Hugo's description of
the Paris street urchin; "There are
two things to which the gamin al
ways aspires but never attains-to
overthrow the government and get
his brooches mended." The Napol-
cons and Bourbons might learn that
sterilization has no refldent wave"

benefits of republican government

A few years ago the opposition
press vigorously asserted in concert
that American manufacturers were
selling their goods in foreign coun-
tries at lower price than they were
asking for them at home. The New
York Tribune sent inquiries to the
managers of all manufacturing es-
adjustments asking if these state
ments were true. Their answers eff
fectually squelched the manufactured
statements and the assertions ceased.
The democratic press has revived
these old stories, applying them to
the present, and the National Indus
trial Commission is sending circulars
to manufacturers with inquiries as TO
the truth of these reiterated asser-
tons.

Last years corn crop in this coun-
try amounted to 2,Io5,Io2,5I6 bush
els. The latest estimate of the crop
this year, based upon the probable
effect of recent rains, is 100000, 900
bushels. Corn, however, is higher
by I3 cents a bushel than it was a
year ago. Missouri seems to be the
greatest sufferer with only 25 per
cent. of an average crop.

the "Sons" having been drafted from
