There can be but one opinion con-
corning Judge Parker's letter Of &C
ceptance. 1t is a strong. manly. dig

abuse, explicit on every issue before
the people and lodging none. 1t ought
to win the party thousands OF votes.

The proprietors and makers of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel fully warranted in offering to pay $500 in legal money of the United States, for any case of Leucorrhea, Female Weak ness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb which they cannot cure. All they ask is fair and reasonable trial of their means of cure. S
 TIf women would study the laws of health and use little more common sense there would not be such large number to-day suffering with the ills peculiar to our sex" writes Mrs, Sallie Martins President Mutual Social Science Club. of ISo South Halstead Street Chicago III "Then when medicine is needed if they would take the Favorite Prescription, they would have chance to get well.

ORANGE GROWERS. ASSOCIATION
New Officers Elected - Pleasing Re.
 ports of Orchard Conditions.

The Arizona Orange Growers As sociation held its annual meeting Fri day afternoon. The association is com posed of over twenty orange growers. the owners of nearly all the producing orchards in the valley, and the annual meeting was well attended The fol- lowing named were elected officers Of the association to serve during the en- suing year: w. A. Wilson. president: Walter Bennett, vice president; L. R. Kruger, secretary; Walter Bennett, J. w. Doris, Mrs. Bessie V. Cushman and w. J. Murphy, directors.
 The reports made by the members, concerning the condition of the or chards and the prospects for this years crop, were fattering. A month ago the growers gravely feared thar the crop might prove a failure or at least be very light, owing to the scarci- " of water in the early part of the season. The fruit seemed to be small and it was doubtful if it would ever reach Ccoper marketable size; that is size in keeping with the establish ed reputation of the Arizona fruit. But since the rains of the last month conditions have become entirely satis- factory. The fruit began to grow rap idiy and there is no longer doubt but that it will ne as good as in any for mer year and it is expected that the product will be greater in volume than ever before. from the same trees, while there a few new trees coming in;o btaring each year.
 The association last year shipped seven full carloads to New York, which VII most likely be the market chOs sen again for this years product as the tIuit comes in early and commands fancy prices there. There were aIso many small shipments of oranges iaet y.ar and about four carloads were sold locally. ThtIe are 10 exact figures available showing the total quantity of oranges grown last year, as many who did not ship had few bearing trees and disposed Of their fruit IS suited their pleasure. It is said thouyl that box material enouS.l for fifty car loads were shipped into the valley last fall. Some of it was used for other fruits than oranges and some of 1t was held over till this season. The only thing the growers have to guard against now is too much water for in that event the oranges grow so fast they split open like pomegranates. If they only had rubber skins there is no telling how big they might get.

Cum Shoe Bill" Stone broke his si- lence the other day and furnished the newspapers of Missouri a statement in which he attacked Joe Folk. the dem ocratic nominee for governor. The statesman of whom it was said he could suck more eggs and hide the shells more successfully than any other. seems to have missed a trick this time. The chicken from that par ticular egg is likely to roost high on for reelection. Some of the politicians may be against Folk. but the masses of the people are for him.

The wet weather was said to have

from Galveston to the effect that the

The bulls did not attempt to make
much capital out of these reports, or at

conviction that the bullish information

BULL SUPPORT
PUT PRICES UP.

New York, Aug. 1O.-The cotton
market opened firm at an advance of
205 points on the new crop POSITIONS
while August was neglected. This
was better than due on the cables,
which were rather disappointing, and
seemed the result of moderate bull
support in connection with a little COW
ering by scattering shorts, who were
rendered apprehensive, presumably
by the continued rains in eastern and
central belts, while private crop adj
vices claiming damage from rust and
shedding seemed to be advanced more
freely. But after working up to
net gain of about to points, it was
| seen that certain large floor brokers.
believed to represent Wall street and
New Orleans bull interests, were sell
ing and the demand from outside
sources subsiding, prices dropped back.
New Orleans, which had opened firm,
showed an easier tone, encouraging
the decline, which around midday
reached net loss of to points.
Later there was rally on renewal
of bull support and New Orleans buy
ing, and in the late trading the mar
ket was steady to firm. with one or
two months selling above the high
point of the morning.
The close was steady at a net adj
vance of 308 points. Sales were esti-
mated at 125,000 bales. Business dur
ing the day, as indicated by the mod
crate sales, was quiet and seemed to
be chiefly for professional account for
those traders working in and out of the
market, evidently with the view of
scalping small profits while awaiting
some development that would have a
tendency to bring in public operations
and break the present deadlock.
Crop accounts during the day seem
ed rather less bearish on the average,
but were not sufficient to cause shorts
much uneasiness. Houston receipts
were well up to estimates. including
31S bales of new crop, and were ex-
pected to reach between 800 and 400
Tomorrow On the whole the new
crop is hardly moving as rapidly as
expected.

HAYWARD, WICK q CO.'S
Daily Cotton Letter from New
York.


New York, Aug. 10.-There was sup
port early and some covering on the
continued rains in the eastern belt
with reports of damage from the CEN
trail belt a little more frequent, and
the market opened firm at an advance
of to 5 points or better than due on
the cables, which were a little dis
appointing. Later prices were bid up
to a net gain of about to points
on the active months, but early buy
ers took profits at this level, and there
was selling from Southern sources
The fact that cool weather is noted
north of the belt and seemed to be
accompanying the clear streak that
is gradually working over the belt
from the Northwest, is reassuring TO
those who dread accounts of heavy
shedding, should the rains be follow
ed by nigh temperatures. The new
crop movement is not showing up as
rapidly as the bears had been led tC
believe, and is probably being delay
ed to some extent by the rains. Mean
while we are informed, mills are be-
coming rather better buyers of spots
with local spot people reporting in
Ctuiries from New England for sup
plies from local stocks. Bids, how
ever are rather above local views.
Certainly from the standpoint of pres
ent crop outlook, and immediate trade
conditions, the market seems too high.
But. we have a rather congested spec
ulative condition, and for the time be-
ing bears seems unwilling to increase
their commitments or enter into new
ones. Until something happens tC
drive the market ont of this rut, we
can expect irregularity and more OIL
less nervousness.
