New Continuance for Harvesting.
Clay county farmers, especially those
who live on low ground. where stand
Ing water made the ground very soft,
used new continuance this year to
get their wheat harvested. Mr.. Watts,
Clay Center machinist, is the orig
inator of the plan. He hit upon the
plan Of detaching the running gear of
the ordinary harvester from the wheels
and attaching a gasoline engine in
such manner that it would do all
the work of running the mower and
binding the wheat. The only thing
necessary for the horses to do was to
pull the binder through the fiilds. The
binder was taken into the field and
worked perfectly. Wheat was secured
that had been given up. as lost. When
ever muddy place was reached and
the wheels slipped the gasoline engine
continued to run the binder and the
horses could drag the whole machine
through the mud, thus harvesting the
wheat. 1t made no difference whether
the wheels of the machine turned.

| ter-general," whom Bryan accused Of
| working "a confidence game on the
| public" and securing his nomination
by crooked and indefensible methods"
| and who. the New York Post intimated
last year, was mot fit to be President
next year or any year"

al chairman. whose selection led the
New York World to protest that Judge
Parker cannot be elected by posing be-
| fore cameras, garrulous and uncOnsid-
cred statements and interviews. wire

ing of votes"
Ex-senator Hill, whom the Post
called Coward" and gutter" and
whose leadership the World said for
ten years past has added disoreiit and

Senator German. whose part in
manning the Wilson bill provoked this
blast from Grover Cleveland: The
deadly blight of treason has blasted the
counSels of the brave in their hour of
might"
Bourke Cochran. The American
warned Parker against being asso-
clated with him in the public mind"
Senator McCarren. whom a former
Democratic candidate called "the chos-
en- representative of the promoters Of

These are the gentlemen who are
accusing the men to whom the nation
has been proud to intrust it's affairs Of
oeihg scoundrels. trust agents. princi-

and their accusations will be given bv
