SAM JONES AGAIN.

he was here two years ago, but this
time July 4th, al Chautauqua, my,
my! He thought Of other truths to
tell of them, ana he told lots of
things. Wonder why democratic pa
pers do not quote him. A few years
ago when he was here and advised
populists to rsow johnson grass on
their heads etcn nearly every demo
cratic paper IN the state seemed to
take especial pride in quoting him,
but now, when he comes and turns
his batteries on them, oh! how si.
lent these same papers are.
Here are few Of his last saw
ings: Pops are fools but l had
rather be a pop than a democrat,
for democrats are rascals and fools,
and when fellow has only one
complaint there IS come hope for
him, but if he has complications of
two, he Is goner.
democrats have been rascals for
the last so years, but when they
stole the Popullst platform that was
the greatest steal of all.

give my sirs with stolen sheep on

Never in the history of the coun-

News continues to come in daily
from these states, recording hun

from heat and continuation OF the
terrible drouth which has ruined
the corn crops.
Kansas City on July 22nd, re-
ported the hottest day ever known
loo degrees with 20 deaths. A day
later report from there said: ga

degrees while thermometers IN the
business districts on the streets
reached as high as 12S.
Farmers are still rushing their
live stock to market because of the
scarcity of water. Today the local
