TIE REVOLT AGAINS1
HILI.

One OF the most significant poIiti-
cal happenings Of the week is lie
open war declared by New York
Democrats against D. b. Hill. 1t is
charged that Hill destroyed chance of
Democratic success in that State by
defeating Judge Parker's candidacy
for the gubernatorial nomination.
The Albany Argus makes a bitter
attack on Hill and styling HIM a
Jonah demands that he be thrown
overheard.
The NeW York World Is also
against 9. Hill, saying;
'HNo reasonable man can doubt
that # Judge Parker had been nomi--
mated and the sociaIistic, coal
ownership plank omitted-as it
would have been under his candi-
dacy-the Democrats would have
carried New York. Nothing una-
demonstrated can be more certainly
true than this. Judge Parker
would have received all the indepen-
dent vote, instead Of only part of it,
as Mr.. Coler did !; and he would have
been supported by thousands of cop
~seryative Democrats who were re-
PEELED by Mr.. Hills too obvious;
m mar IN btiFs own interest as q
a presidential candidate and by his
astounding blunder in adopting and
defending the unconstitutional, I'M
American and; revolutionary coal
plank. New York State. was thrown
away for the Democrats at Sara
toga. This is the meaning Of IF Coy,
Odells slender plurality.

Judge Gordy was severe in his
sentences for violating the Sunday
law may thank their stars that they
did not happen TO be in ouachita
parish, where Judge Hall has recent
" sentenced a lot of saloon keepers
to pay a fine Of $3.50. He then
made them feel good by reading
Section 957. of the Revised Statutes.
This provides tLat a person convicted
for the fourth time of the violation Of
a law may be considered a habitual
criminal and imprisoned for life. If
necessary he told them that he would

by whose good advice he has been
spared much pain and trouble. He
says:
Il have had backache for over twelve
months. Sometimes could hardly get
up when l was down, the pain in my
back was SO great.
Il tried many things but could not
get anything to help me or give me
relief till a good friend of mine advised
me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
after had used two boxes the pain
in my back had all left me and l was
as well as ever was.

ney Pills for what they have done for
me, and will never forget my friend
for having suggested this remedy"

CAN THE EARTH EXPLODED
The Question Interestingly Dis cussed
from a Speculative Point
of View

We frequently hear the suggestion
that the earth may some time explode
from the pent-up forces within, and we
often read theories about explosions
of heavenly bodies, but the earth can
never explode from it's own pent-up
forces. Under our very feet at this
moment, between the rearth's solid
crust and the molten interior, there is
a pressure eXerted more than double
that which is capable of being exerted
by the most powerful dynamite in the
world. 1t is generally accepted and
probably true theory, says Hudson
Maxim. in Woman's Home Compan-
ion, that the whole interior of
rock and metals heavier than the
crust above, and upon which the crust
aoats in a relatively thin layer. The
thickness of the earth's crust within
the great continents is probably from
so to 100 miles. If we estimate the
pressure exerted by the weight of one
mile of earth and rock at 10000 pounds,
which is we'll within the truth, then so
miles of earth would exert a pressure
u oOOol oOO,Ooo pOuHuS, anu 1UU miles
would exert a pressure of 1000 900
pounds, to the square inch. Now. as
the pressure capable of being exerted
by the most powerful dynamite. ex-
ploded in space equal to its own vol
ume, is about 100000 to $4,000 pounds.
it is evident that if the whole interior
of the earth were filled with dynamite.
and exploded, it would not be capable
Of exerting pressure only about one
third great enough to raise the con-
tinents or to disrupt the crust of the
earth.

A BENEFIT TO FARMERS.
Consolidation of Harvester plants
Means the Continuation OF Low
Prices to Buyers

The benefits that will undoubtedly
result 10 farmers from the recent in
corporation of the International Har-
vester Company, which took over the
business of the five leading harvester
manufacturers have probably not
been considered by large portion of
the farming community.
The economical necessity of a con-
solidation of the interests of manu-
facturers and those of their farmer
customers must be apparent to any
one who understands the present sit
uation.
The increased and increasing cost
of material, manufacturing and sell
ing-the latter in consequence of ex
IRENE and bitter competition between
manufacturers and their several sell
ing agcnts-has made the business
Improbable
The two alternatives left for the
manufacturers were either the in
creasing of the prices of machines
or the reduction of the cost of man
ufacture and sales. The latter could
only be accomplished by concentlat-
ing the business in one company.
AS can readily be seen, the forming
of the new company was not stock
jobbing operation, but centering of
mutual interests. There is no watered
stock; the capitalization is conserva-
tive and represented by actual and
tangible assets. There is no stock
offered to the public, it having all
been subscribed and paid for by the
manufacturers and their associations.
The management of the Interna-
tional Harvester Company is in the
hands of well-known, experienced
men.
The officers are: President, Cyrus
II. Mccormick; Chairman Executive
Committee, Charles Deering; Chair
man Finance Committee, George w
Perkins: Vice-Presidents, Harold F.
Mccormick, James Deering, VIM. II.
Jones and John j. Glessner; Secre-
tary and Treasurer, Richard F. Howe
The members of the Board of Di-
rectors are as follows: Cyrus Bent
ley, William Deering, Charles Deer
ing, James Deering, Eldridge NJ. Fow-
Ter, E. H. Gary, John J. Glessner,
Richard F. Howe, Abram NJ Hyatt,
