ELMIRA, N. Y, Aug. 6. 1901.

EDITOR REPORTER: Only few fields
from Oswego to Elmira that are prosper
Gus, in fact know of but five successful
growers. Grasshoppers and worms have
got the crop. Take that with the lack
of work that is necessary on tobacco
crop, would say but Is per cent of the
entire n. Y. crop will be fit for the wrap
per- Growers here with but very few
exceptions fail to take the care that is
exercised by the Wisconsin tobacco
raiser. Shall l tell you as fact, sir,
some growers on the main tobacco road,
same as on the Pomeroy road, are just
cultivating. To sum it up, the only to-
bacco have seen that approaches the
Wisconsin leaf is that grown by Mr..
Barnard whose interests are located at
Evansville, Wis. Plants that are 8 feet
high stand under their experimental
gauze or canvas, while upon the left and
to the front stands magnificent field of
tobacco reaching shoulder high showing
care and cultivation. Outside of two
fields of tobacco, one owned or worked
by Mr.. Boyle consisting of 80 acres and
the other by Mr.. Dimmick of Oswego,
know of but little good tobacco outside
of the Goff and Brund farms. In fact
the Wisconsin binder would put to blush
the shame of N. Y wrapper.

GAINESVILLE, WIS, Aug. 9, 1901.

Since our last report two rains have
visited this section. Wednesday after
noon good soaking rain fell over this
immediate vicinity, but did not cover
much ground. Last night light shower
fell, giving the growing tobacco another
start toward maturity.
While the conditions are not as dis
couraging as two weeks ago, they are far
from satisfactory and the matter depends
almost entirely upon the weather during
the next two weeks, whether we have
much tobacco or not.
In cased goods, George Rumrill pur-
chased 300 cases of 1900 and the Lewis
Sylvester packing of 5000 cases of 1900,
is reported to have been sold to the
American Tobacco Co.-Farm and Home.

VIRoQUA, WIS, August 7, 1901.

The heavy rain of ten days ago has
had wonderful stimulating effect on
tobacco fields and the weed has fairly
jumped in growth. There still exists an
uneven condition that makes it the most
varied crop grown in this section for
years, which tells us plainly that the
time occupied in shedding will be con-
tinuous harvest for weeks. There is a
general movement at topping, while in
some sections harvest is on.
A number of foreign buyers have been
quietly going over the tobacco sections
Of the county for the evident purpose of
buying, but. we are not, advised that
many, if any sales were made. We un-
derstand that as high as twelve cents
have been offered.-Censor

Havana.-"Very little doing" is the
general report from Havana tobacco i'm
porters, the laxity of the market being
attributed to the midsummer dullness in

inclination of manufacturers to stock up

having definitely ascertained what the
new crop has to offer. Sales of the week
are not sufficiently large in the aggre-
gate to warrant reporting

THE FEAR OF AUmsue.
Prevents Many People From Trying
Good Medicine.

stomach troubles are no common
a..d ia most cases so obstinate to cure
that people are apt to 100 kwith sus.
picion OH any remedy claiming to be
a radical permanent cure for dys-
pepsla and indigestion. Many such
pride themselves on thier acuteness in
never being humbugged, seecpially
in medicines.
This fear OF being humbugged can
be carried too far, 50 far, in fact, that
many people suffer for years with
weak digestion rather than risk a
litt- ,ime an mondey in faithfully test
ing the clamis made Of preparation
so reliable and universally used as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important res
pect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
a secret patent medicine, no secret is
made of their ingredients. although
they are sold by all druggists under
protection of trademark, but analy-
sis shows them to contain the natural
digestive ferments. pure aseptic pep
sin. the digestive acids. Golden Seal,

powerfully on any organ, but they cure
indigestion on the common sense plan
of digesting the food eaten thoroughly

only secret OF their success.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure Indigestion and stomach
troubles because the yact entirely on

stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken

nEMocRAcY lN okLAAoMA-

: The Oklahoma political situation
from a Democratic standpoint. was
detailed in an interview with ptomi
nent Gutnrie man published in the
World yesterday.
Some new phases of q are the Dem.
ocratie majority in the territory the
determination to put quietus on
Dennis Flynn, and the general demand
for statehood which will ultimately
overthrow the administration which
Oklahoma has labored under so long.
The clear majority Of 10000 for the
Democrats was indicated at the fall
elections The rush to the new
country" added a hundred thousand
people to Oklahoma's population. and
among them there is a majority Of
Democrats. The location Of the heavy
Democratic vote in the south and
western portions Of the state furnish
es an interesting problem for the Re
publicans to meet when statehood is
assured, for it will enable the elec-
tion of two out Of the three congress
men to whom Oklahoma would be en-
titled.
The end OF Dennis Flynn's reign
was sounded when il was rumored
that he stated not long ago that he
was worth s250,OO0 Those in a po.
sition to know don't fix the estimate
that high, but they do say that for
eight years Flynn has lived in Wash
ington and on a salary Of $4,000 year
has accumulated a fortune of 100000.
Oklahomans describe Flynn as a
thrifty gentleman" in consequence,
but they think that Oklahoma has
giyea him enough honor and enough
glory.
Heretofore Oklahoma's territorial
government has been dictated by a
few men, so few that Oklahoma is
ashamed It's people demand home
rule, and to accomplish it they win
overthrow the obstacles in their way.
The opposition to statehood comes
only from the men who have dictated
the federal control Of the territory
and their satellites. Their removal
from power will make the way to
statehood easy.
t breach between the Barnes and
the Flynn factions of the Republican
party in Oklahoma is further compli-
Gated by the creation Of the Jenkins
faction President Roosevelt has al
ready rebuked the latter, but the fact
will not by any means tend to heal
the rupture.
Whether statehood is obtained with
the coming session Of congress or not,
Oklahoma may be considered safe in
the hands of the Democrats. Their
cry is for an honest administration,
and that is the cry Of Oklahoma IRE
spective Of politics.

Health and Beauty.

A poor complexion is usually the
result of a torpid liver or irregular
action of the bowels. Unless natures
refuse is carried off it will surely
cause impure blood. Pimples, boils
and other eruptions follow. This is
natures method of throwing of the
poisons which The bowels failed to
remove. Dewitt's Little Early
Risers are world famous for remedy
ing this condition. They stimulate the
liver and promote regular and healthy
action of the bowels but never cause
gripping, cramps or distress. Safe
pills.

THE PORTO RICAN Cases
Mr.. COudert Concludes His Argu-
ment for the Plaintiffs.
Washington Quoted Before the SUI
preme Court Against the Abuse
of the Constitution.

F. R. Coudert continued his argument in
behalf Of the plaintiffs against the Gov
eminent in the Porto Rlcan cases before
the Supreme Court today.
In opening, he answered at length the
question propounded yesterday by Justice
Brown. whether territory acquired by
the United States could remain foreign
territory. He replied in the negative. but
went on to say that the inhabitants there
Of did not necessarily become citizens OF
the United States. That was regulated by
express statute Of Congress.
For the remainder Of the time occupied
by him. Mr. CCudert elaborated the prop
ositicn advanced by MIN in the opening Of
the argument yesterday. For any evil
that might arise under conditions contend
ed for by counsel the remedy was said to
be in the following words OF Washington,
which even in these days Of Imperialistic
excitement and grand ideas had not be-
come wholly obsolete:
II, in the opinion Of the people. the
distribution or modification OF the cen
stitutional powers be in any particular
wrong, let Il be corrected by an amend
tion designates- But let there be no
change by usurpation; fer, thsgsgh this. a
one instance may be the Instrument OF

which free governments are e@stroyed. The

aDce IN permanent evil any partial CT

proval in German diplomatic circles. The
opposition is not pronounced, but there

to indicate that Germany Will not agree
