A Chicago man has observed that,
Good deeds are better than real es-
tate deeds-some of the latter are
worthless. Act kindly and gently,
show sympathy and lend a helping
hand. You cannot possibly lose by
it." Most men appreciate kind word
and encouragement more than sub
stantial help. There are persons in
this community who might truthfully
say: "My good friend, cheer up. A
few doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy will rid you of your cold, and

LOCAL COTTON REPORT.

Brookhaven, Sept. 3O.-The condi
ton of cotton has not changed ma
,terially since last months report. The
yield in this section will be from 60 tt
70 per cent. of normal crop. There
is no top crop worth mentioning, ano
the rest is nearly all open now. There
is scarcity of pickers and few farm
ers are up with their picking. The
rains of the last two weeks have done
considerable damage to open cotton
beating it out on the ground and in
juring the sample quite seriously
Along branch and creek bottoms there
has been some damage by over flow
Ginners report the yield of lint from
seed cotton to be satisfactory and up
to the average.
Farmers are showing greater con.

just now, than to rush it to Market

ported, but the facts show 1t to have
been grave and as an indication of the

Of the strikers, with some of them re-
sentiment has become so strong that no
great ~provocation is needed to incite
them to violence. There is reason to
fear that the rioters at Shenandoah are
not the only strikers who have this
feeling and whose passions are being
worked up to a point that will easily
impel them to lawlessness. The policy
Of the coal operators is w~ell-calculated
to stimulate hostility and cause the

itself TO be utterly Indifferent alike to

IOWA RePUBLICIN PLATFoRM.


Those who have been expecting that
the Iowa republicans would this year
make a radical departure from their po-
sition in the past regarding the policy
OF protection will be disappointed with
the declaration of the platform on this
subject unanimously adopted by the con
vention Wednesday. This reafirms de-
votion to the policy Of protecting home
industries, which it says has been vindi-
Gated by the rapid development Of our
national resources and by the industrial
and financial independence secured. The
Iowa republicans believe, as do many
other republicans, that tariff changes
should be made as they shall be found
advisable by reason of the progress of
our industries and their changing rela.
tons to the worlds commerce, but not
at the sacrifice OF the protective prin-
ciple. There is nothing in this declara.
ton from which those who are making
war on protection can derive any en-
couragement. The advocates Of a tariff
''for revenue only" viii get no comfort
out of It., The republican farmers OF
Iowa, than whom there are none more
intelligent, know the benefit that pro
lection has been to the agricultural in
terest of the country and are not willing
that 1t shall be abandoned.
In other respects the platform declara'
lions are such as republicans generally
can approve. National regulation OF
the great corporations is urged and
the position of President Roosevelt
In this regard is cordially in.
dorsed. Reciprocity is favored as nee
essary to the realization of u high.
est commercial possibilities. The Philip
pine policy is approved and a tribute IL
paid to the army. Confidence is ex
pressed III the national administrator
and the election Of President Roosevelt
in 1904 is regarded as "a fo~reshadowed
event demanded by the popular will and
one that will maintain and promote the
national prosperity and conserve every
national interest"
Iowa occupies a commanding position
In national affairs and is in the from
rank Of republican states. Her people
are intelligent, progressive and prosper
ous. 1t is needless to say that the re
publican ticket will be elected by al
overwhelming majority.

Must wOmen Come to the Rsscus'

The demand for harvest laborers in the
northwest grows apaee. with the rapid
~ripening Of the crops. The demand for
laborers in the cities and in all industries
is such that it is to be feared that the
farmers are going to have a hard time in
securing enough help. II would be a pity
to see any Of the bumper crop lost through
lack OF harvesters. The railroads are
doing all in their power. Perhaps the rO-
bust farmers girls will have to turn in and
lend a helping hand. Many Of them can
drive a reaper or a harvester as we'll as the
boys and some could even do a good Job
in pitching and stacking. The idea Of
women working in the harvest FIELD is not
popular in this country. but American
women can rise to this emergency or al
