PROF ~

The matter of feed is of
tremendous Importance to the
farmer, Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

RUSSIA WILL SETTLE.
bOmbardment Of British Vessels Calls
For Apology ahd Indemnity

LONDON, Oct. 25.-1t is stated this
morning that the situation growing
out of the North sea incident has al.
ready been adjusted in principle.
Russia has agreed to make every
| amend within reason. In the note dis
patched to St. Petersburg yesterday
the British government put forwa ard
certain definite demands in language
which it is understood leaves little
opening for any suggestion of COM
promise. These comprise apologies
for the action of the Russian squad
ron in firing on the British fishing
fleet on the North sea Saturd ay morn
ing and full compensation for the suf-
ferers.
A dispatch from Hull to the Times
says that its correspondent, as a re-
suit of his investigat alton, is of the
opinion that the attack on the British
| trawlers by the Russian Second Pa
cific squadron was a deliberate act
perpetrated with knowledge of its
character. The correspondent argues
that the fact that the first ships of the
squadron steamed calmly by "dis-
poses Of the fiction that thes Russian
officers had an attack. of nervous
ness,' and then contends that it is
ridiculous to suppose that Russian
men-of war, largely manned by Films,
could have mistaken the trawlers for
anything but for fishing boats.
Finally the correspondent contends
at the whole affair is compatible
with the idea of drunken comm ander
yielding to the temptation to have a

who are nothing more than peasants
in the eyes of a we4l.born Russian" F."

The press as a whole is significantly
silent regarding the North sea trag-
edy. The papers generally publish
without comment foreign kilograms
concerning the sinkingio iofsthe trawlers

LINDSAY TOLD THE TRUTH.

In one of his speeches in this part
OF Montana, a statement was made by
Hon. William Lindsay, repu blican
candidate for governor, to the effect
that democr attic corruption had
brought disgrace upon the people of
this commonwealth. He declared that
the name of Montana was in such dis
repute in many parts of the country,
because of this political corruption,
that many good citizens were ashamed
to acknowledge that they lived in
Montana.
The democratic press has abused
Mr.. Lindsay for making this state
ment, and alleges that he traduced
the state in which he seeks political
preferment. But Mr.. Lindsay un-
doubtedly told the truth.
In support of Mr.. Lindsay's state.

Hon. Robert B. Smith, former gov.

land, in McClure's for November,
gives his personal estimate of Judge
Parker as a candidate for president.
He says of him, in part:
1--WE sometimes find features of
character so prominently visible in a
mans mental organization, that, like
the features of his countenance, they
need no proof of their existence. This
is pre.eminently true of Judge Parker S
intense deliberation in reaching con-
clusions and his inherent judicial con-
servatism. These qualities of his
mind are so distinctly apparent tn at
they are at once seen and known by
all who gain the slightest knowledge
of the man. This should make it
thoroughly understood that those who
love presidential pyrotechnics must
look elsewhere.
II have known Alton B. Parker for
more than 20 years. He impressed me
on our first acquaintance as sincere,
honest and able man: and this i'm
preston has with time and observa
tion grown to clear and undou biting
conviction. l am sure that I venture
nothing in making the positive asser
tion that the guiding trait Of his ch ar
acter is his constant and unyielding
devotion to duty

Do you rememember that l4th of
September, 1901, when at two O'Clock
Saturday morning, some ten hours
after the death of the lalnented Nc
kinley, Theodore Roosevelt took the
oath of Office as President of the
United States, adding:
81 wish to say that it shall be my
aim to continue, absolutely unbroken,
the policy of William Mckinley for
the peace, prosperity and the honor OF
our beloved county,
During the three years which have
followed President Roosevelt has not

has not only carried out the policy Of
President Mckinley in every way,
continuing the peace and prosperity
Of our beloved country, but as new
questions have arisen, and they have
arisen very frequently, he has met
them courageously and wisely, and
has administered the government il
all its departments without a single
mistake.

to succeed himself or shall he have
such an overwhelming vote through
out the entire country that his endorse

Bryan As Il Political Prophet

NEW IORK, Oct. Pa statement
from William J. Bryan of his impress

here, was issued at democratic head
quarters today. In the statement as
given out by the committee, Mr.. Bryan
is quoted as saying:
$50 far as can Judge from the
size OF the crowds, and the interest
manifested, and the expressions of the
people, the democrats of Indiana are
ready for election day. There will be
no considerable detection among the
silver democrats of the state. If l
can Judge from what | have seen in
the section | visited l take it for
granted that every gold democrat who
has not gone over to the republican
party permanently will support the
ticket. | leave Indiana with hope and

Complains Against Coal Trust.

NEW York, Oct. 25.--J. G. Had
dock, an independent coal mine owner
and operator, testifying today before
the Interstate Commerce commission
in the case of William r. Hearst,
az ainst the coal carrying railroads,
said that as result of tariff discrim.
ination his company suffered a loss of
more than $500, 900 in less than eight
years. This loss meant the differ
cnce between solvency and insolvency,
and his company, which at one time
had a reputation of high standing
which he jealousy guarded, as a re-
suit of the alleged discrimination is
now in the hands of trustees. Mr..
Haddock said that he had persistently
complained to the management of the
Lackawana company and had been
met by the proposition that he turn
his properties over to the railroad
This he had declined to do. In the
end there was a compromise by which
he received $3.50, 900 from the Lacka-
wana company in settlement of his
claim for $500, 900.
