generally have a purpose when they do
things.
In the Northwestern and West .rn
states, Cleveland might not get more
than a corporaps guard" of democra-
tic votes, and he might not get many
republican votes, but this would not
affect the result in the electoral college,
for those states, will nearly all go re-
publican any way.
1t is not the popular vote" that the
| Cleveland boomers are going after II
is the electoral vote they want. And il
they can succeed in controlling the
next national convention of the demo.
cratic party, they will nominate Cleve.
land, and then, unless they can get an
absolute promise from Roosevelt that
he will behave himself, and be good
they viii elect Cleveland, or, if they dc
not, they will meet with their first de.
feat.
They have already placed Cleveland
in the White House twice, as a warning
to the republican party, and they have
not the least doubt of being able to do
it again if they can get him nominated
Let us not be foolish enough TO think
that the tariff issue will brighten any
one from voting for Cleveland. He
never hurt the tariff when he had a
chance to. OF course he was elected to
reform" the tariff. But he didn't dc
it. And he wont do it. He wont dc
anything that would hurt his New York
cronies, who control the trusts. He
will talk, maybe, about trusts, and the
tariff. But they know him, and they
know they can trust him.
If they can control our next nat
ional convention. 1t all depends on
that. Will they do it?' They are
organized. The rank and file of OuT
party is not we'll organized. VIM. j
Bryan, through his paper, The Com.
moner, has been trying to arouse the
democratic voters, to get them to
organize local Clubs. He has been, to
some extent, successful, but not to any
great extent.
All Democrats, should awaken to an
understanding that the caucus and the
convention will determine the future OF
their party for the next four years. All
democrats who do not desire Mr.. Cleve.
land as Their next candidate for the
presidency should realize that there is
probably only one way to prevent il
and that is to organize nOW and be
ready to defeat the efforts of the ere
organizers" who will be on the ground
in some shape or other trying to fix
things, unless alert sentinels are on the
watch to thwart them.
1t would be greater disgrace, and a
greater political damage to the demo
cratic party to nominate and elect MIR.
Cleveland, after he has twice voted and
worked for the republican candidate,
than it would be to be defeated twenty
times, while following paths of consist
ancy and honesty.
1t is no satisfaction to win an election
when you are wrong 1t is on the con-
trary shame and disgrace TO be wrong,
and the shame is intensified by winning
But to be right, and to make a vigorous
fight for democratic principles is great
satisfaction, whether the battle be lost
or won.

Market Showed Strength at Opening
and Trend of Prices Was Upward.

IPorterfield & Co.'S telegram
NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-Another great day
for the buyers. The market showed strength
at the opening despite the fact that London
was inclined TO take profits. The trend here
was upward and the coalers all made new

in for a two-dollar rally, while Rock Island
again broke loose and advanced So share

ing was fully distributed and when the
grain market showed that there were pros
poets of big crop the investing public
bought the railways. The b. & O.'s July re-
port was an incentive TO buy that stock.
while the expected favorable report of Eric

INDIANA'S CROP REPORT.


W. T. Blythe, director of the Indiana sec
ton. climate and crop service of the Wealth
er Bureau, makes the following report of
crop conditions for the week ended Mon
day. Aug. Il:
The daily mean temperature ranged from
10 degrees below normal in all sections
and averaged for the week and for the
deficiency was on the 18th. and the lowest
temperature in the north section light
frost being reported in Allen county on that
date.
While light local showers fell at scattered
places. precipitation was deficient i'm the
north and central sections: in the southern
portion of the State light TO copious show
were quite general.
As TO color and vigor corn looks we'll gem
orally and. in the south and localities in
other sections where rain fell. a marked i'm
proyement in its condition Is apparent. But
the bulk OF the crop Is from one to three
weeks late and, account of continued
cool weather. is making such slow growth
that. even with the most favorable weather
during the balance of the season. a full crop
is not expected.
The second crop OF clover is fairly good.
but the yield of seed varies from good to
practically none
Tomatoes for canning, of which there is.
in the aggregate. a large acreage in the
State, are generally in good condition. but
are late and growing slowly. Packing will
probably not begin until ten to twenty days
later than usual, or about the 10th or 18th
OF August.
The yield of potatoes being dug is light to
fair. Late potatoes are more promising.
Cantaloupes and watermelons in the
southern section are yielding profita bic
crops Tobacco is doing well.
Winter apples are reported 10 be falling
badly i'm some places, and hanging and
growing well in others. The prospects for
more than a light crop have not improved
Some wheat and oats are yet 20 be
fhreshed I'm the north section.
Flowing for fall seeding is in progress in
all sections The ground I'm the south Sec
ton is i'm good condition: I'm the central and
north sections It needs more moisture.

Control of Chicago Great western.

report is current that the Chicago
Great Western has passed into the control
of the Chicago Milwaukee & ST. Paul. and
that the Missouri. Kansas & Texas is to
be operated by joint agreement by the
two last named roads. If the story from
New York is true that the roads have
united on a plan of control and operation
of the Great Western it will give the NJ. h.
d L. system direct connection with Chi
cago and also eliminate the Great Western
from the st. Paul territory as a rival. In
local circles this statement is doubted, but
it is thought that eventually the road will
pass into other control as a protection in
the maintenance Of rates. The Great West
ern is controlled by English investors, for
the most part and despite the fact that
President Stickneys interview Is questioned
in certain quarters, it is understood in the
East that a deal for the transfer of the
road is well under way. but whether 1t is
with the Chicago Milwaukee & st. Paul
the Chicago & Northwestern seems TO
be open to doubt.

Railroad Earnings Gratifying.

Gross earnings of the railroads in the
United States reported for the first week
of August show an increase of s5,917.541 over
last year, or III per cent over 1902 aid 1853
over 1901. 1t is noticeable that all classes
continues to report larger earnings than the
preceding year. The earnings of the roads
reporting for July showed a gain of 12.4
per cent over July, 1902, and 21.S per cent.
over 1901. There are some additions to be
published, but they do not materially
change the figures. The Trunk lines now
include the Baltimore & Ohio as well as
the New York Central and other important
systems in this section, and there is large
gain, these two classes leading all others
in percentage of increase. Southern and
southwestern roads report a considerable
gain and include ali the important roads in
that territory. In the Pacific group the in
crease in earnings reflects heavy tonnage.
Traffic In nearly all lines seems TO be large,
especially of the better paying classes of
freight, and this is reflected in the heavier
earnings.

Observation-Disclosures of Passenger
Because a traveller on a railway train
has no ticket, that, in itself, furnishes no
warrant for putting him off the train.
Though he had no ticket the right Is his to
pay the fare in cash. The demand upon
him must be either for a ticket or for
payment of the fare in cash, and if he
offer TO pay, the railway company elects
him at its peril. But. If a person who is in
