A TALK ON HYGIENE

What is Hygiener
The science of health, or the
knowledge of how to care for the hu.
man body.
If this is true, then 1t is very i'm
portant study.
The condition Of the human system
very largely depends on what il re-
ceives to nurture and sustain It.
The air we breathe and the food we
take, both solid and liquid, have great
influence on the body. These facts are
daily becoming more and better un-
derstood by all classes of people.
'Tis within only short period Of
time that medical research has dem
onstrated the cause of many forms of
disease that affiict humanity; such as
consumption, diphtheria. typhoid and
various forms of fcvers to be tho
moidious germ that enters the body
through the medium of the air we
breathe and the food and fluids con.
sumed.

Much Higher Price for the

Special to The Observer.

Special to The Observer.
New York, Sept. 81 take
this means of answering hundreds
of telegraphic inquiries reaching
me from all over the country in
regard to the cotton market. II
is impossI 'le for me to reply to
them individually. The report of
the United States government is
sued to-day in regard to the cot
ton crop indicates a condition of
GA, which is the lowest on record
for September. 1t is, and has
been, confirmed and foreshadowcd
by all other reports, puslic and
private, for the past three weeks.
The most optimistic construction
that it is possible to put upon the
government report does not justl-
fy the expectation of a crop OF
10, 100000 bales of American
cotton. The world consumed du>
ring the year Just ended 1000, .
o0O bales of American growth,
and in order to make this supply
suffice reserves everywhere are
practically exhausted. For the
coming season the world will re.
qulre, conservatively estimated,
about IL, 250,000 bales of Ameri-
can cotton. There is then a tbeo-
retlcal deficiency between the
maximum supply and the mini
MIN demand of Mt least 1850, =
600 bales. An actual deficiency
is commercially unthinkable.
The price must 90 to a figure that
will check consumption. This
price is by no means reached as
yet. America has practical mo-
nopoly of cotton production.
Peace reigns universally through
out The world Industrial and
commercial enterprise is uncheck
ed and expanding. Next to the
food stntfs, cotton is the most im-
postant and necessary staple con
sumed by civilized society. l
think 1t entirely probably that be-
fore any effect upon consumption
rs apparent cotton will be selling
at lO cents II pound in the South
and doubt if the advance will
stop there. If producers of the
article are wise they will demand
and obtain that figure.

AS To Pensions.
Columbia Record.

A numoer of papers in the
state have taken up the pension
question and are making de-
mand that the next legislature
shall take up the question and
devise some plan whereby the
unworthy men on the rolls shall
be taken off. That very many
such names are on the list is be-
yond question. Instances are no
doubt observable in every county
where men who are financially
able to provide for themselves
are grabbing at the pension fund
intended for INDECENT Confeder-
ate soldiers. The law has been
carefully drawn and there are
safeguards thrown around il
which would prevent such a state
OF affairs occurring were its pro.
visions properly carried out. The
trouble seems to be chiefly with
the administration of the law.
The Yorkville Enquirer, which
has taken mp the subject, points
out very correctly that there
seems to be in the minds of tbe
various pension boards a feeling
that the pension sum was voted
by the legislature as Il reward for
services. This is not the case az
everybody knows, for the money
was intended to aid those who |
by reason Of disability accustomed |
from service in the army are un-
able in their old age or in their
niirmity from making a living.
Because of the reward for services
view of the matter there are no
ioubt a great many men receiv- |

Condition Of the Crop.
Even With Favorable Weather
from Now on, the Texas Cot
ton Crop Will be Short-Thc
Carohnas in Need of Rain.


Washington, Sept. 2.-The
weekly summary of crop condi
tions made by the Agricultural
Department says: The tempera
ture conditions in the northern
districts east of the Missouri Val
ley during the week ending Sep~
tember 1 were more favorable
for maturing crops than in the
previous week, but. as in the two
weeks Immediately preceding the
excessively high temperatures pre-
vailed in the Central and West
Gulf districts, including Oklaho
ma and Indian Territory. Con
tinued absence of rain has inten-
sided the drought in The West
Gulf districts, and rain is gener-
ally needed in the Ohio Valley
and in coast districts from south
ern New England to the Carroll
mas. In the States of the Nilsson
ri Valley and in portions of upper
Mississippi Valley corn has
made fair progress, but has not
matured rapidly, owing to the
low temperature and excessive
moisture. Dry, warm weather
is greatly needed in the Missouri
valley for The maturity of corn.
But little rain has fallen over
much the greater part of the cot
ton belt westward from the Mis- :
slsslppi river during the past
month, the last three weeks of
which have been excessively
warm. The week ending Septem

over the greater part of Louisi-
ana, portions OF Arkansas and
Oklahoma, and throughout Texas,
with the exception of few light
showers in the north central and
northeastern portions, the rise
OF which, with the ravages of in
sects, has been steady deterior,
alton in the condition of cotton
during the second and third de-
cades. While favorable weather
conditions in the near future
would cause a marked improve
ment in the condition of cotton in
Texas, the reports Indicate that,
under the most favorable clrcum-
stances, they would be much
short OF an average crop. The
central and eastern districts of the
cotton belt, with the exception of
portions of the Carolinas, where
the drought continues, have re
ceived abundant rains, but too
late to be of material benefit.
while causing considerable injury
to open cotton. Some slight i'm
provement is reported from Dor
tlons of Florida and Georgia and
less premature opening from Ala
bama, but rust and shedding are
very general throughout the CEN
tral and eastern districts (the

ber, shows that good rains fell |

Duluth, Mimi, June 27-The case at
law of the various heirs and assigns of
the late Johann Mueller is being threshed
out in court here, and dpromises almost in
terminable length. It will be years be-
fore the ownership Of his piece of Mesa
ba range land is finally settled.
The land is located in the center of the
Mesaba range and is reported in the news
papers as immensely valuable; many Of
the heirs have tremendously exalted no.
tions of its worth. 1t is the west half Of
the southwest quarter of section Is, and
the north half of the northwest quarter
of section %, township So, range 10.
Mueller died at Superior in aims

gage on the land to the German Catholic
priest here, one Kosmerl. There were
also various contra titles to the land,
some of which Kosmerl bought up. He

In Chippewa county, where Postmaster
Webst er is boss, the ring" won the dele
CATION for Sheldon hands down, and IN
Schoolcraft Young won because the
friends of the former postmaster. who
was refused reappointment, were more
numerous in the city of Manistique than
were the supporters of the present post
master. ''...
BY the result in Schoolcraft it seems
evident that Sheldon made a mistake in
the postoff1ce appointment, which may
cost him his denomination, since 1T is
conceded that whichever of the two can
didates enters the convention In the lead
1t will be only by two or three votes. Had
the old postmaster been renominated, 1t
is likely Schoolcraft's three votes would
not be in the Young column
Of the counties still to elect delegates,
Dickinson, with seven votes; Gogebic,
with six and Luce, with two, are practi-
cally conceded to Young. Baraga, with
three votes, will also, undoubtedly, be
found in his column. and he appears to
have much the better chance in Iron,
with four delegates. Should he capture
all these counties, and of this there does
not seem to be much doubt, except in the
case Of Iron, which, to be impartial,
will be classed as doubtful, he will enter
the congressional convention with total
Of fifty-on votes, or two more than nec-
eSSary TO nominate, there being total
vote Of ninety-seven. The two other coun-
ties-Houghton, with twenty-five votes,
and keweenaw, with two-are by majority
consent conceded to Sheldon, giving him
total delegation of forty seven, two less
than sufficient to win.
In Houghton county, however, a peculiar
situation exists, through the candidacy Of
Charles Wright. who, except in this coun-
ty, which Is the home of both himself and
Shelden does not figure in the race.
Wright. is making a strenuous fight to
capture the twenty-five votes and by
some politicians 1t is figured he will be
successful. The prospects are, however
that while the township caucuses will be
close as between Wright and Shelden
local pride in being the home county of
the congressman from the twelfth dis
trict will predominate and Sheldon will
be given the delegation, as without it it
would be impossible for him to win.
With Houghton then, for Sheldon, the
situation finds Iron county the only pivot
al point, and it is in that county that the
workers Of both candidates-Young and
Shelden-are being concentrated. Much
money, it is said, is being spent, but with
the county machinery back of Young with
the other conditions equal, the Marquette
county man seems to have the inside
track. All in all, Young seems to possess
the better chance of capturing the nomi-
nation. The congressional convention has
been called to meet at Marquette on
Tuesday, July Is.
