SALOON OPENED WITH PRAYER
Bishop Potter Of Gotham Delivers
Address at Saloon Opening by
New York Reform Party.

New York, Aug.2.-Bishop Hen
ry c. Potter delivered the principal
address today at the formal open
ing of "The Subway Tavern" a
model saloon which was established
by number of leaders in the
reform movement in this city.
The purpose of the promoters of
the enterprise is to serve pure
liquor and food at low prices
under the best possible moral con-
ditions. In his address Bishop
Potter said the keynote had been
struck by this attack on the liquor
situation He said he believed in
the old village tavern as a meeting
place where long evening could
be spent without the necessity of
intoxication.
IL belong to dozen clubs" he
said "if / want to go out to dinner
or a social evening ] can do so in
any one of these clubs. But what

with his luncheon he must 90 to
the saloon.
This is the greatest social move
ment that New York has ever
know. 1t is a movemen, every one
of you must take into account if
you would save the republic.
Bishop potter concluded by wis
hing every success to the move
ment. The formal opening ended
by the singing of the Doxology.

Republicans Expect Greater R0Ose
welt Plurality In West Virginia
Than Mckinley Got.

Much confidence in the ability
of the Republicans to carry West
Virginia is felt in administration
circles.
West Virginia is expected to go
Republican by $4,000.
One of the most important fac
tors in the election in that State
will be the Negro vote. Since the
1900 election, when Mckinley
carried the State by plurality of
2l,022, the number of Negro
miners has increased largely. The
big coal companies have imported
10000 Negroes, who are voters, in
the last few years.
While the Republicans expect to
lose many votes because Of the
gold Democrats returning to the
Democratic fold, and because of
Republican factionalism it is
pointed out that the accession of
so many Negro votes will probably
enable them to maintoin as long a
lead as they had in 1900.

times greater than common red

much healthier and less liable to

in winter in some places.
think little manure used as q
top dressing would greatly assist
in getting a stand. When once a
stand is obtained it is claimed to
be good for ten or fifteen years
The first and second years are the
most critical times with alfalfa, as
it grows slowly when young and
weeds are liable to smother out the
young plants, and the land should
be mown over frequently. 1t is
also liable to suffer from extreme
heat and cold at this time.
Should our first attempt fail of
success we should not be discourage

ever one has a stand it never will

After a general summary from
all the reports received at the diff
erent agricultural stations in the
State and the following crop con
ditions are found to exist;
Wheat crop has turned out much
better than expected in yield and
quality. The acreage was less
than usual.
Tobacco has improved and is

complaint of frenohing IN some
localities, but the area affected is
small. The early fields are being
topped.

and promises large yield.
IOats are about all harvested and
a fair crop.
Potatoes and garden vegetables
are very fine.
Hay cutting is over; crop below

Apples are falling badly and are
deteiioating in quality. Peaches

porting full crop and others none

Hemp bids fair to make at least
an average crop.
