what the asphalt was composed OF

FIGHT SEVERAL LICENSES
Home Protective League VIII Appear Be-
fore Council Committee.

Officers of the Home Protective league
are planning to appear before the license
committee Of the city council on Friday
night. The meeting may prove highly
interesting. At the last meeting the men,
bers Of the league made no protest on the
issuance of a number Of licenses, with
the understanding that the saloonmen who
were allowed to continue In business and
receive licenses at that time would do
away with anything having the semblance
Of winerooms. ~. ~
It is said that some Of those favored
have not played fair with the league,
and this may result in the latter organ
ization making strong representations
looking toward the revoking Of licenses.
Evidence gathered in connection with
other saloonkeepers whose applications
will come up Friday night will be sub
mitted. From surface indications the
Friday night meeting may take on more
than pink-tea proportions before the eve
ming is ended. T., ~

NATIONAL GUARD OUTING
Trip to St. Louis VIII Cost 500, ooo-May
Be Given Up. ....... .......

Statisticians have estimated that it will
cost 900 for the Minnesota national
guard to go to st. Louis this year instead
of going into camp at Lakeview. This sum
taken for the junket would deplete tho
funds Of the guard to such an extent that
there would be nothing remaining to pay
for camp expenses in 1905. There is a
desire on the part Of some Of the militia
men to go to st. Louis. but the officers
hold that the men would not gain any
thing in the way Of instruction in drill
and camp work and point out that the
fund Is more or less Of an educational one
In the line Of schooling soldiers. The mat
ter will be left to Governor Van SAINT and
will be decided on the return of the ex.
ecutive from Iowa.

WHEAT CROP IS
NOT PROMISING
III. v. JONES so REPORTS AFTER
SOUTHWESTERN INSPECTION.
Grave Danger Threatens Winter
/ Wheat Unless Rains Come Within a
Month - He Estimates Country's
Product at 600, 200, 900 from Present
Conditions, Which Are Subject to
Change.

a . 81 = I us 4
H. v. Jones returned this morning
from a tour Of the southwest and
inspection Of the winter wheat fields.
Mr.. Jones finds condition warrant
ing fear for the crop unless good rains
come within a month. The winter
wheat promise is not high at best,
there being many very dry places in
Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma, where
the wheat after appearing above
ground has made little further growth.
Much Of the area stands in position
where the weather for the next two
weeks will tell the story for a con-
siderable area.
Reviewing the situation, Mr.. Jones
says:
THE wheat crop Of the United
States is in more critical condition
than for several seasons. Some Sec
tons Of the southwest have not had
rains for ten months, notably the
Texas panhandle and western Okla
homa. The whole wheat area Of the
| Ohio valley and the southwest is af-
fected in some degree unfavorably
| and rains will be necessary to bring
out a good crop.
Area Likely to Be Lost.
"If these rains are not general BY
May 10, a considerable part of the
wheat area will be lost regardless Of
what conditions may obtain after
ward. Kansas had some good rains
last night, which will be very help
| full. I feel that we have no right tt
discount the future too much, henct
should say the chances to-day are tina
Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma togeth
err will this year raise as much a.
| Kansas did last year, possibly 5000,
900 to 100000 bushels more.
THE trouble with the wheat is tina
it lacks growth and staying quality
due to the long drought. It has com
up we'll all over Kansas, and over par
Of Oklahoma and central Texas, bu
1t has no growth, being perhaps tw
we express it, for average appearance
it should be tall enough to hide
rabbit. ..-..
Central Missouri will diSappOin1
and western Oklahoma will do we'll t
get back seed. Central Texas and tn
northern part Of central Oklahom
show good promises. Kay county
Oklahoma, has the banner prospect.
Country's Product Estimated.
taking a general view Of tn
United States and going as far as war
ranted by consideration Of chances a
this time, I should place the country
production at 600,000,000 bushels
Without the rains suggested above tn
yield will be likely to fall consider
ably under, and with good rains
not likely to exceed it much.
Were it not for a good gain o
the Pacific coast, the country woul
7 show a heavy falling off from la:
year.
Stocks May Be Affected.

How to
Get Well.

Every organ of the body is
directly connected with the
brain by nerves. The nerve
cells in the brain generate
nerve force-power-and send
it to the organ through these
nerves, and this nerve-force
gives life and action. The or
gans work perfectly when there
is sufficient nerve power. Lack
of nerve force weakens the &C
ton of an organ and it works
imperfectly-becomes sick.
Two-thirds of all sickness is
thus due to weak or deranged
nerves; it is therefore advisa-
bic to take DR.. Miles Restor-
alive Nervine, because It makes
nerve energy.
When you cure the nerves
you remove the cause, and
that's the way to get we'll.
''Dr. Miles Restorative Nervine
cured me Of nervous prostration after
every other effort had failed to give
me reIieL. My trouble seemed to
