REDUCED RAILROAD RATES
For the Horse show-Traln servic,

For the Horse ShOW-Traln Service
The manage ment of the StauntoI
Fl ,rsa Show is leaving no stone un-
| turned to insure the success of its first
annual exhibition, which will be held
Aug. s and 9 next. The new grand
stand is almost completed, and it is a
very much larger, roOmier and better
arranged structure Ia every way than
the old stand that was destroyed by
| the tornado that devastated the Fair
Grounds some years ago. The popular
! ssprivate box feature has been added
| to the new stand. The old stables have
| been repaired, and large new stable
built. A show ring-an oval 2O0x50O
feet--has been graded between the
grand stand and the lake. The ar
rangement not only insure every con
venience, but the surroundings are
simply ideal. No open air show in the
South has such advantages in the way
of grounds and surroundings.
Each mail brings inquiries. an
nouncements of exhibitors ard requests
| for stable reservation, and every indi.
cation and assurance is that more
splendid horses will be seen here Aug
and 8, than have ever been gathered
at one point IN Virginia outside Of
Richmond.
The c. &c 0. Ry. has put in force a
rate of one and one-third fare for the
round trip This is made special
rate for the Staunton Horse Show and
the tickets will be ON sale from Aug.
Z to inclusive, good to return inclnd-
ing the 10th, and from all points both
east and west from which patronage is
least likely to be drawn.
The b. & 0. Ry. has given the same
special rate, and the tickets will be sold
for the same dates. The b. & o. has
also made very desirable change in
its train service. on both days of the
show-Aug. s and Strain No SO,
the train that is scheduled to leave for
Lexington at 4:09 will be held here an
hour, thus giving parties from Lex
ington and intermediate points an OPP
portunity to see the entire days per-
fOrmance, and return in the evening.
The prospects could not be brighter
for thoroughly successful exhibition
in every way.

A RetractiOn.
From July Number Ladies' Home
journal.

From July Number Ladies' Home
Journal
In the May number of the Ladies'
Home Journal we published, in the
article entitled 1.-The Patent Medi-
cine Curse,n an analysis of doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription" in
which that preparation was represent
ed as containing, among other ingre-
dients, tineture of digitalis, tincture of
opium and alcohol. Immediately up
on publication of the number suit for
damages was instituted by the r. Y.
Pierce Medical Company, of Buffalo,
New York, proprietors of the prepare
tion i'll question, against the Curtis
Publishing Company, based upon the
claim that none of the ingredients
was contained in the medicine.
Upon the filing of the suit, we, of
course, Immediately looked into the
published analysis. 1t appears that
this particular analysis had been made
ifmade at all, fully twenty-five years
ago. We, thereupon, employed three
leading chemists in different cities to
make an analysis of the preparation
from bottles bought in the open mar
ket. These analyses, one and all, now
show to us eonclusively that not sim
gle one of the ingredients mentioned
by us in the analysis quoted-that is
either digitalis, opium or aleohol-was
contained in the bottles analysed We
then the President of this Company
and the writer-p personally visited the
II. V. Pierce Medical Company, at
Buffalo, and were there convinced
that the'ofiicers of the company were
absolutely truthful in their claim that
not one of these injurious ingredients
was contained in doctor Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. Naturally
since the analysis we printed has been
proved erroneous, the deductions
made in connection with this prepare
ton were unwarranted and unfound-
ed
Under the circumstances it is now
perfectly plain to us that this maya
zine was Internationally, but neverthe-
less absolutely misled in making the
original statement, and we hereby, of
our own volition, make this unqualifi-
ed acknowledgment of our mistake to
The r.. V. Pierce Medical Company
and to our readers.
The mistake was honestly made but
it was mistake.

TEMPORARY PRICES
Senator Danebere Believes That
Hay Will Remain at a
Good Price.

Yesterday Senator Dangberg came
down from the home ranch and spent
the day in this city. In speaking of
the valley he said:
"Yes it is true that we have the
heaviest crop in number of years and
all of the farmers are cutting the
finest quality of crops that has been
raised in several seasons. The dry
weather and plenty of water has had
the desired effect In fact all the
crops are in excellent condition and
prosperity is abroad in Carson valley.
II noticed that the Appeal stated
that the price ofhay is falling. This
Is only true in a measure, as a matter
OF fact our company is buying hay and
paying better price than we did last
season. Some of the first crop was
disposed of at lower price, but this
was to make room for the other crop
that is coming. The hay market will
be practically the same as last year.
There will be just as much hay sold,
just as many cattle fed on the farms
and more demand for hay this year
than there was last. The quality of
hay in Carson valley is known the
coast over, and it is the outside buyer
that endeayors to beat down the
prices. This will be hard matter to
do as California has been little shy
on hay this season, while Nevada has
an excellent crop, and the cattle must
be fed.
"Of course Carson valley looks tow
ard the outside world for its market.
The local consumation would not use
one halfthe production of the valley,
while that sold in this city amounts
to very little comparatively. Tonopah,
the canal, the new discoveries where
teaming is in progress is what makes
the market and as there is a brisk
demand coming every day it does
not look like low prices. There may
be temporary fluctuation in the mar
ket, as there is on every marketable
product, but as a whole the Nevada
farmer can look forward to pros
porous season and before the year
closes there will be little if any hay
left in Carson valley that is not sold
or fed to the stock. There has never
been too much hay cut up that way
and there will be none too much this
year. The hay will sell just about
where it did last year and may even
advance a little over the current
prices of the past season.

CAPITAL AND LABOR

We submit the labor record of the
Republican party against the professions
of Democracy. Republicanism has built
up tariff wall about this country which
gives the American markets to the pro-
ducts of American labor. 1t has in
every State where i'm power enacted
legislation fayoring shorter hours and
sanitary conditions of labor, prohibited
child labor, and passed stringent laws
for the safeguarding of the life and limb
of employees. II has under Theodore
Roosevelt submitted arbitration, as in
the coal strike, for the bullet and bayo-
net of the last Democratic administra-
ton in its settlement of the Pullman
strike. Promising little, performing
much, IL has been the true and tried
friend of both capital and labor. whom
il holds as equal and coneordant parts
of the nations industrial economy. The
Republican party will not support eapi-
tai I'm oppression nor labor i'm violence
II recognizes organized labor as the unity
of industrial action, striving to secure
more equitable distribution of the
fruits of industry. 1t is the trusted ally
of both capital and labor; for capital in
the things which are essential to the
successful government of enterprises,
and with labor in its crusade for reason
able hours at the highest wages consis-
tent with the successful conduct of
business. In this State it favors eight
hours labor upon all public works and
as the legal work day in mines, quartz
mills and smelters, and will uphold
legislation giving it proper and equitable
force and effect.
STATE INSTITUTIONS.
We favor the economic conduct of the
State government, the generous treat
ment of the orphan wards of the State
and the humane care of the insane. We
are justly proud of the public school
system of Nevada and the State Univer-
sity and will favor all reasonable prop
ositions calculated to improve their
efficiency and usefulness.
INVITATION TO SILVER REPUBLICANS.
Recognizing the fact that many of the
most patriotic and progressive citizens of
the State of Nevada have for several
years past east their ballots against the
Republican ticket because of their dis
belief in the financial views of the fact
that there is no issue between the party
and the national parties upon the subject
of finance, cordially invite all such fellow
citizens To renew their political fellow
ship with ms and to share with ms in the
glories of our certain victory ut the
coming general election.
