"A CONQUERING NATION"
BE Not Overcome of
EVIL"

Chilicothc, Mo, July 30. Wit
liam J. Bryan addressed tn" grad
yates of the Normal School, and
an audience that filled the Luella
Thcatcr, this evening. Subject
"A Conqucring Nation"
In an interview Bryan said it
was impossible to say how impor-
tant part the money question
would play in the campaign of
1904, and that the democratic par
ty ought not to recede from its po-
Sition on this question altho other
questions might be of more impor-
lance for the time being.
Mr.. Bryan spoke for an hour
and "A half discussing live political
issues. He took his text, as he
called it, from Romans BE not
overcome of evil, but overcome
evil with good"
He wanted the United States TO
conquer the world by the light of
its good example, he said, and not
by force of arms. After speaking
of the questions of taxation, mon
ey. and trusts, he declared imperi-
alism to be the most important
problem with which the country
had to deal, and Il question that it
must solve honorably before its in
huence Tor good could be felt
among nations.
The decision of the Supreme
Court in the DowneS case, he said,
has robbed us of our moral stand
ing.
He said: We are told that the
Constitution cannot be extended
beyond the United States, but that
ii President can be spread all over
the world. The President becomes
greater than the Constitution
which created him. There is only
one honorable way out. If we
merely give the Filipinos our pro-
lection they will do their own
fighting, and if they give other
nations who would bother them as
much trouble as they have given
us they won't need much protec-
ton.
Many people came from IA dis
lance to hear the speech, and the
applause came warm and frequent.

EDlTOR MESSAGE:

fDlIOk NlESSA'tE:
If YOU will allow me space i'll
your excellent paper this week, |
would like to offer few sugges-
tions to the good citizens of the
county as an escape from the di-
lemma into which the protracted
drought has plunged us.
1t is said that necessity is the
mother of invention and it is
potent to every thinking person
that crisis is upon us, and it is
but the better part of prudence
and wisdom to devise the best
means possible to meet the contln-
gent. | don't want to be consid-
cred a pc ssimist, but | fear that
we do not properly appreciate the
extent or magnitude of the destl-
tuition in the bounds of our cOun-
ty. as the result of the drought,
and the utter failure, or nearly so,
of all the growing crops. | have
Travelled over this and several of the
adjoining counties and know where
of speak and | believe that it would
be rather below than above the
fact to place the number of the
dependent families in this county
at five hundred. Those people,
from the very nature of things,
will be dependent on their daily
labor for Il sustcnance for the next
twelve months. Where are they
to find work! How are they to
earn n support for themselves!
These people to beg! They are
ashamed. so many in the same
condition, there can not be work
for any reasonable number. Many
have already lett the county ana
State and many more will follow,
and in my judgment, this exodus
of the stalwart and ablebodied
young men from the country is a
calamity.
Well, you ask, what can be
done! My solution of the prob
lem is, bond the county for five
hundred thousand dollars and put
five hundred of these idle, yet
needy, ones, with their tools and
teams, TO building rock and gravel
roads on the principal thorofares

Some Ingredients Employed In tho Man
ufacture of Sham Gems

To meet the growing demand for ar
tifiCidl jcwclry the process of making
precious stones" has been greatly
improved within the last few years
and its further development has en-
listed the services of some of the most
skillful chemists. The material chief
ly used is glass, but it is not the or
binary glass of commerce. 1t is pre-
pared with the greatest care by high
~ skilled artisans, for upon its clear
ness andlperfeCt homogeneity depend
the quality of the imitation gems,
which are far superior to the cheap
grade of cOunterfeits that rely on sill
yer backings for their luster. This
glass can only be made from absolute
ly pure quartz, or, better still, from
rock crystal, as quartz frequently con-
tains minute veins of iron, which
would impair the clearness and color
of the glass. The bicarbonate of pot
ash and the oxide of lead which are
mixed with it must also be chemically
pure. Other ingredients of less i'm
ro',ance are borax, which promotes
the fluX, and a small quantity of ar
senic. The best glass for imitation
gems consists Of rock crystal, 81
per cent; bicarbonate of potash, II per
cent; oxide of lead, so per cent; borax,
! per cent, and trace of arsenic
Carefully prepared by competent
hands, this mixture produces a grade
Of glass which in brilliancy and irri-
desCence yields little to the genuine
diamond itself, and these qualities
may be further enhanced by the sub
stitution OF potassium for the bicar-
Donate of potash and an increase of
the quantity OF oxide of lead used.
Stones carefully made by this process
can only be distinguished from the
genuine by experts. This Is true,
however, only so long as they are
new, for imitation gems wear of, be-
come blind and lose their fire with
age. and 1t is to remedy these defects
that the efforts of chemists are now
directed. Opaque gems, like the tur-
Quoise and the opal are made from
glass whose transparency is destroy
ed by the addition of oxide OF zinc
after pulverization. The color OF the
turquoise is produced by means OF
oxide of copper and cobalt.

right, if Il few die of neglect, or
lack of water, or some other cause,
the sellers reputation is good. The
property interest cannot he relied
upon in this matter of proper treat
ment of dependents. Ii was estl-
mated in the old days of slave
trading that if half the cargo got
thru the dreaded Middle Passage
alive there was profit. The pro-
perry interest was no safeguard
there. 1t never protected any
creature which could be ill-trcatcd
by II thoughtleSS or cruel person
with no immediate punishment.
1t is one of the characteristics of
of the callous and cruel man, rs II
rule, to be short sighted. He sell
dom sees that in the long run hui
name treatment is profitable.
In this case the trader and the
railway men do not suffer much,
even when their treatment of cattle
is absolutely cruel. 1t is the pub
lie which suffers, and 1t is the pub
lie which will therefore have to
take the matter in hand. There is
Il great difference in the systems of
various railroads and dealers in
their treatment of cattle and sheep,
and some are much more humane
than others. But it is not so vc.y
long since sheep were packed like
sardines in close ears. without a
drop of water during long jour
ncys, in the hottest of weather;
and cattle were subjected to the
same treatment.
Such conditions breed filth and
disease; and diseased meat is not
safe for anybody to eat. 1t will
probably never he possible to as
certain the number of deaths which
have resulted from the eating of
impure or diseased meat, and for
every death from this cause there
are many victims of disease.
Sometimes the ailment is obscure
and insidious, but it is ncvcrthc-
less there. Some time ago there
was Il scare about trichinac which
resulted in many people becoming
Jews or Mohammcdans where pork
was concerned, but much of the
beef which comes from cattlctrains
where the animals are packed to-
gether in filth, discomfort and
thirst is not bit more fit for hui
man consumption than measly
pork. In these days no man can
tell where his butcher gets the
meat which is confdingly bought
and eaten by his customers. ltmay
be good, or it may not. 1t is time
that the treatment of cattle, on
trains Of transportation and in
sheds, during the time before they
are killed, should be regulated by
law, and that every one concerned
i'll their transportation and care
should be required to see that they
are in conditions us nearly health
full as the difficulties of the case
allow.

this as an Invocation to the Lord
to send rain. The rain has come.
The rain has also come for Mis-

pos to this II certain thoughtful

Lord has been sending rain in
abundance since the landing of
Columbus and the reason we do
not always get it Yin season" is
that we allow it to go To waste
down the streams and rivers, and
that is Il very plain fact. There
is saying that the Lord never
helps those who can help them
selves. There ought to he more
care taken of the WATERS and there
should be more thought given to
irrigation. The present drought
has done much to awaken the peo-
pie to this situation. Millions of
acres in the West can be saved by
reservoirs and irrigating bitches,
and we believe Uncle Sam" is go
ing to look after this thing right
soon. In the meantime let the ag-
itation keep stirring. The people
know these things if they will
think, but they may have to be
forced into building the reservoirs
and bitches by several successive
years of drought. Nothing makes
man seek water as quickly as
fire. These thoughts ought to be
beneficial also for the people Of
Missouri and Audrain county.

FACING THE SITUATION.
Dr. Hawkins Sees Distress For Many Audran
County Farmers.
He Would Bond the County for Road Improvement and
Give Work to the Needy.

all over the county. BY so doing
YOU can convert this present ca
lamity into Il blessing for the coun-
ty and solve the vcXcd and ever
present and annoying question OF
good roads. What say YOU, fell
low citizens! You can secure the
money at very low rate of inter
est and sell your bonds at pre-
MUM. Place the whole matter
under the management of the
County Court and Il bonded road
commissioners. Let the work out
under sub-cOntractorS. who also
should give bond for the faithful
performance, according to speciii-
cations, etc.
In my Judgment this is the solu-
ton of the difficulty. 1t will give
work to every bona fide citizen of
the county, convert the hard times
into a year of reasonable prosperl-
ty, supply a long felt need, give
ms rood roads which will he a bles-
sing to the generations who are to
come after us. am told that the
county court some thirty odd years
ago bonded the county to the Il
mount of $500, 900 in the interest
of the c. & a. Il. X. Co. and no
one re grcts the advantages to the
county from this investment, and
vet. that amount, or double that
amount, can be appropriated now
for the building of good county
roads. which will be of infinitely
greater benefit to the county than
all the railroads that could be
built
Our people give with liberality
akin to eXtravag ance to schools,
colleges, churches, factories and
what not. viii not the better in
formed of all the citizsns of the
county rise en- mass and at once
provide means whereby our people
may find work at home, in their
own interest. whereby they may
earn competency for themselves
and dependents'
If these suggestions meet with
your approval, Mr.. Editor, agi-
tate, agitate.

The actual drawing was novel.
On the platform two oblong box
wheels, each l. feet in length, one
to hold the names of the applicants
for homesteadS in the FL Reno dis
trict and another for those of the
Lawton district. Into the wheels
were placed envelopes containing
the names Of all the registered APP
plicants. The envelopes have first
been brought to the platform in
packages consecutively numbered.
y corresponding series of num-
bers, upon slips, is placed in an
other receptacle, from which they
are drawn ont at random. The
package of envelopes bearing the
first number drawn was the first to
be placed into the drawing box
and well distributed, while anoth-
er was drawn and another package
of envelopes distributed, and this
course was continued until all of
the envelopes had been placed in
the box wheels, after which the
wheels were revOlved for suilici-
ent length of time to insure Ii
thoro mixing of the envelopes.
The first envelope drawn was

This course was pursued until
800 names had been drawn from
