''The democratic congressional cam
paign through the country this year.
said Hon. Ben T. Cable, chairman of
the executive committee of the dem
ocratic national congressional com
mittee, to Chicago Record-Herald
reporter. will bring home to the
people the fact that the trusts, aid
ed by the Dingley tariff, are milking
the nation. The insincerity of repub-
Iican professions in relation to reel
procity, as evidenced in the treatment
of Cuba and that party's non-commit-
tai, dark-lantern policy in relation to
the Philippines, will also receive at
tention. We believe that this great
nation can afford to give the Filipinos
"a specific promise of independence.
"Our literature and speakers will
advocate abrogation of the tariff on
trust-made articles" Mr.. Cable con-
tinued. '-The campaign textbook
will be out about August 3. That will
show, among other things, the devel-
opnient of our trust era. commencing
in 1896 and continuing down to date.
1t will show disproportion between
prices charged here and abroad for
tfust-made articles. 1t will show the
disproportion between the increase
of prices on trust-made articles and
the increase of wages.

norman reactions to cooler weather
VIII follow the storm period, or
whether general and heavy rains will
attend these storms during much of
August. We believe that very much
warm weather, with light precipita-
tions-even hurtful drought-are in
store for most parts of the country,
until the latter part of the month, es-
pecially.
The Vulcan storm period central on
the 9th. covering the 9TH to 18th. will
be marked by changes in the Their
mometer and barometer, common to
the storm periods, and the culmina-
ton into storm. with more or less
precipitation, may be expected on
and touching the 9th. 10th and 11th
This period may be watched with in
terest. as it may indicate one way or
another much that may be in store
for us for weeks to come. 1t will
probably be warm and dry.
On the 18th, 18th and 10th reac-
ton to storm conditions will be No
ticeable-the barometer win fall,
warmth Will increase, cloudiness will
ensue, and rains, according to the
abundance or lightness prevailing in
the Mars period, Will visit many parts
in transit from east to west.
Coming TO the Vulcan period ex-
tending from the 18th TO 23rd, we
see that Mars, Earth and Mercury
all lend their disturbing powers to
the period. During this period we
also find that the moon is at her full
on the 18th and on the celestial equa-
tor on the 21st.
If the present Mars period should
take the stormy side of the dilemma.
all the periods in the last half of
August will bring general storms,
some of them furious and fatal. The
reactionary storm on and about the
Goth and 2Sth, at the center of the
Mercury period, and near the moons
last quarter, north declinatiOn and
peTigee, will possibly be fraught with
violence and danger, especially along
the south coasts. We enter regular
storm period as we pass out of Aug
ust, the crisis of which Will fail in
the first. three days of September.

TARIFF AND THE TRUSTS
THE CAMPAIGN ISSUES

Champaign literature? Yes, we eX7
peet to use a good deal of it, in spite
of Congressman Babcock's belief that
literature will be ineffective this
year. We believe the American peo-
pie know how to read and think for
themselves. and that the most effec-
tive way of reaching them is to give
them something to read and think on
through the medium of the newspa-
per and the printed document. Sen
ator Hoar's speech on the Philip
pines will be used, of course, and so
will Senator Patterson's speech on
the trusts.
Eve shall conduct a speakers bu-
reau, too. if we can find the where
withal. We hope to get Bourke Coch-
ran on the stump; Richard Olney, if
he will consent to speak; Mayor Tom
L. johnson. of Ohio, if he can spare
the time-alI the strong men of the
party, in fact-the more the better.
".luch of our work will be done, of
course, through state organizations.
The campaign is not really on yet.
We are doing preparatory work now,
getting data as to general and local
conditions everywhere, especially IN
the doubtful districts, and preparing
our printed matter. 1t is therefore
too early to commence forecasting.

Move on Foot to Raise the Lake.

Move on Foot to Raise the Lake.
The subscription paper that has been
passed around town the past week for
the purpose of raising a fund to dam
Blue Dog lake, is meeting with very
good success and quite a sum has
already been subscribed.
1t is estimated that about $1,000 would
enable the town to secure an expert in
this line and have it fixed in such a
manner that it would be substantial and
confine the water to the lake bed proper.
This would raise the lake some four or
five feet and would put it in shape for
steam launches. The lake now abounds
with pickerel and it is the intention of
the promoters of the project to stock it
with a variety of fish and otherwise
improve it. This would give the towns
people a summer resort within ten
minutes walk of their homes. A meet
ing of citizens is called for 500 o'clock
this evening at the city hall to organize,
appoint committees, etc.-Waubay

ELASTIC BANDS GUST STRING.
Cheaper Than String In Some Uses
Tons of Them Sold.

"No," said a rubber goods dealer,
who had been asked about the sale Of
elastic bands, 1--WE don't exactly sell
them by the ton, but there are tons
of them sold in the course Of the year.
"Originally designed more especially
for a convenient binder for bundles Of
documents and that sort of thing, they
are now used for great variety Of
purposes in place of string. They are
used to put around packages and
bundles in stores, more especially
small packages, as in drug stores.
They are used by many manufac-
turers to put around things Of various
kinds, which otherwise would be tied
up. If many of these uses, aside
from their convenience and their at
tractiveness as part of the parcel,
they are cheaper than string, because
the use of them saves SO much time.
4 rubber band can be wrapped around
a package in much less time than it
can be tied up.
Rubber bands in old times used to
be sold by the dozen, now, as you
know, they are sold by the pound, but
you don't have to buy pound. you
can buy at ounce, or half ounce, for
that matter.
How many bands to pound? Well.
that depends, Of course, on the size
of the bands. The biggest, heaviest
bands used run only twelve bands to
the pound; the smallest, tiny little
band called an election ring, from their
use around punches of ballots. number
thousands to the pound. Most people
buy bands of gray rubber. but nova
days there are not few who prefer
the bands of tho more modern terra
Gotta color.
II never heard an elastic band play,
but there's sure to be music in the air
when the small boy gets out with his
beanshcoter, which he makes by at
taching a rubber band to the prongs
of a wishbone-shaped handle; this be-
Ing on of the uses of elastic bands that
forgot to mention. New York Sun.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT,

The one pruoence of life is concen.
tration.
An aim.ess life is commonly a name
less life.
Consideration is the daughter OF
kindliness.
Time lost in menoing nets is saved
In catching fish.
Disgrace is not in the punishment
but in the crime.
Riches are not an end of life, but
an instrument of life.
Trust your secret to another and it
will return badly soiled.
A truth that one does rot under
stand becomes an error.
Delicious rest is the fruitage of toll;
1t Is strengths sweet restorer.
Success, if attained at all, must he
attained via the path of drudgery.
A good conscience is sometimes sold
for money, but never bought with it.
1t is always duty to enlighten con-
science; it is never duty to disobey it.
If thou suffer injustice, console thy
self; the true unhappiness is in doing
it.
The two great longings of really
noble spirit are to be loved and to be
useful.
If you wish success in life, make per-
severance your bosom friend, expert
ence your wise counsellor. caution your
elder brother Ind hope your guardian
genius.

Measursu1 Humidity.

To most minds scientific instruments
sre so fearfully and wonderfully con-
structed that no attempt is ever made
to pry into the manner of their per-
forming their functions, the results
obtained being accepted as a matter
of course. Yet many such instruments
while apparently complicated, are
really based on very simple principles.
OF these the thermometer and the
barometer are, of course, now general
ly understood, although this was not
always true.
Another meteorological instrument,
however, which is much used, ous
which is more or less mysterious 10
the public, is that by which the amount
of moisture in the air is determined.
While delicately constructed and bal
anced by means Of fine springs, the
chief reliance is placed on few horse
hairs, which are exceedingly respon-
siye to the influence of dampness.
When the air becomes moist they
relax, and a pivoted bar, one end Gf
which forms an Indicator, is drawn
along scale, which SHOWS just to what
extent the air is saturated with water.
When the air is dry the horse hair
becomes tense and the indicator is
returned to it's appropriate place Oh
the scale.
It is in this way that track is kept
Of General Humidity, whose damp
forces so effectually conspire to keep
humanity in misery during warm
weather.
