Coffee Has a Curious Way of Finally
Attacking Some ORGAN.

Ais that come from coffee are

ITO begin with" says a Kansan, Il
was a slave to coffee just as thou
sands of others to-day; thought
could not live without drinking strong
coffee every morning for breakfast
and I had sick headaches that kept
me in bed several days every month.
Could hardly keep my food on my
stomach but would vomit as long as
1 could throw anything up and when
l could get hot coffee to stay on my
stomach thought 1 was better
well, two years ago this spring I
was that sick with rheumatism l
could not use my right arm to do any
thing, had heart trouble, was nerv-
GUS. My nerves were all unstrung
and my finger nails and tips were
blue as if 1 had chill all the time
and my face and hands yellow as a
pumpkin. My doctor said it was heart
disease and rheumatism and my
ne:ghbors said l had Bright's disease
and was going to die.
well, did not know what on
earth was the matter and every morn
ing would drag myself out Of bed and
go to breakfast, not to eat anything.
but to force down some more coffee.
Then in a little while l would be SO
nervous, my heart would beat like
everything.
Finally one morning I told my hus-
band l believed coffee was the cause
Of this trouble and that / thought l
would try Postum which 1 had seen
advertised. He said All right so we
got Postum and although 1 did not
like it at first I got right down to
business and made 1t according to
directions, then 1t was fine and the
whole family got to using it and 1
tell you 1t has worked wonders for
me. Thanks to Postum in place of the
poison, coffee, now enjoy good
health, have not been in bed with sick
headache for two years although had
1t for 30 years before began Postum
and my nerves are now strong and
have no trouble from my heart or
from the rheumatism.

Good crons at CARRIER.

CARRIER, o. T., July 2S.-The cor
rectness of the official reports of the
crop conditions throughout the terri
tory is being indicated by the large
yield per acre in this vicinity. The
report says that CARRIER and vicinity
is the most favored location for wheat
yield of any in the territory. In
conversation with five different thresh-
ermen working in this immediate
neighborhood. their estimate average
yield per acre in the vicinity of Gar
Der this year for No. 2 hard wheat
was between 10 and 20 bushels, as
taken from their books. The yield
per acre thus far ascertained has not
been less than 16 bushels and more
than 81 per acre. Never before in
the history of the country have con-
ditions been so favorable for a corn
crop with such a large acreage. Ev-
erywhere the reports are coming in
that the corn crop is safe without
any additional rain for an average
of so bushels per acre and this on
the bottom will run up as high as
rs and so bushels. Farmers in this
locality have sufficient cause for their
feeling of appreciation and for the
substantial improvements that they are
now contemplating

A pisuracefuI Amendment.

Addicksism has been taken into the
Republican fold, Notwithstanding it
represents all that is censurable ii.
politics. The Addicks delegates from
Delaware we're seated in the Republi-
can National convention although il
was we'll known that political debau-
cherry was the cause of their being
there. President Roosevelt has again
approved of the rotten side of Della
ware politics by appointing William
M. Byrne as assistant district attor-
ney for New York, who has been one
of the principal Addicks strikers and
partisans. He has only resided in
New York for a few months so his
appointment is therefore the more re-
markable, and when it is remembered
that the United States Senate refused
to confirm his appointment as dis
trict attorney for Delaware, it is the
more extraordinary. To inject the poi
son of Addicksism into the Republic
can organization of New York by
planting one of its shoots in that
fertile soil for strategy and spoils, in
the important office of United States
district attorney, where the opportun-
ity for political evils are SO numer-
Gus, is almost beyond comprehension.
Talk of home rule and civil service
reform and boast, as the Republicans
do, that President Roosevelt is for
their honest enforcement, and then
think of such an appointment when
the facts were all well known. Usu-
ally excuses can be made for bad ap-
pointments by the president, he has
to rely upon what others tell him
about those who seek Federal appoint
ments, but in the Byrne case, the
appointee, Addicks, and the debauch-
ing of Delaware, were all notorious
and no one had more wealth of de-
tails of the rottenness than President
Roosevelt.
This, the last straw" says the
New York World, 1--WE can stand Ad-
dicks in Delaware if Delaware can;
we could stand the Presidents
'stanch and loyal friend Quay in
Pennsylvania if Pennsylvania could !;
we can stand Plat and Odell in New
York if we have to; but when it
comes to making New York the
dumping-ground for Addicks refuse
which even Delaware will not toler-
! ate, New York draws the line"

ans who are anxious for reciprocity
with Canada and other countries will
now know their demands are not to
receive the slightest consideration.
The Economist also shows it's utter
adherence of the Cuban reciprocity
treaty which President Roosevelt
forced through Congress, for it adds:
1.-THE fact will not be lost sight Of
that had the principles enunciated
in this platform governed the Repub-
lican national administration during
the past two years there would have
been no such thing as reciprocal trade
agreements with any foreign nation.
no matter how great the incentive
nor how charitable the spirit which
prompted such negotiation when the
fact was clearly demonstrate that
more than one industry in the United
States was certain to be injuriously
affected thereby
That is certainly a fair slap in the
face for President Roosevelt, who the
Economist evidently thinks was not
governed by true protection princi-
pies, for it is clearly demonstrable
that more than one industry in the
United States was certain to be in
juriously affected thereby" The in
jured industries are sugar and tobac-
CO, both of which are controlled by
trusts, and the lament of this Repub-
lican organ shows clearly the connec-
ton between the trusts and that
patry and the absolute domination of
the trust barons over the late Repub-
Ican convention.
The monopolists have so tied up
the Republican party in its platform
that for at least the next four years,
if that party is successful. there will
be no tinkering with the sacred tariff
law. A Republican candidate for
Congress may promise to favor reci-
procity or to revise the tariff so that
it will not foster trusts, but if elected
he will be powerless to do anything
for tariff reform without breaking
with his party. 1t will be well for
Republicans who have hitherto voted
the Republican ticket, but now think
reciprocity or revision of those
tariff schedules that protect the trusts
in selling abroad cheaper than here.
should be adopted, to question their
candidates for Congress on how far
they will be willing to go for reel,
procity or reform.

The protectionists are much exer
cised at the exposure of the Agricul-
tural Department plan of estimating
the number and value of sheep. The
statistical abstract of the United
States on page 1872 quotes the figures
of the Agricultural Department and
as these statistics show falling on
in the number of sheep of 1884, 1872
and a corresponding decrease in value
of s34,7S5, 651 from 1908 to 1904, it
would indicate that in spite of the
highest protection on wool sheep are
not profitable to farmers and herds
men. The American Economist, Of
course, as BELTS a trust-supported
organ of protection, comes up smiling
and attempts to explain the vast fall
ing off in the number of sheep by say
ing that the growing fondness for
lamb has led to their unusual slaugh-
ter. But this lame explanation does
not explain, in fact it befogs the ques-
tion. for the government figures are
given for the first of January and
lambs are born in the spring and
would not be counted until the fol-
lowing year.
The facts are that like most of the
government statistics the sheep fig
ures are mostly unreliable for the
census report for 1900 on sheep
shows the Agricultural Department
figures are not any way near the
other.
1t is certainly rather an awkward
matter for the protectionists to ex-
plain what is the matter with the
sheep industry, when wool is protect
ed 70 per cent. If the Republicans
had only made the duty on wool 140
per cent they would apparently have
wiped out the sheep industry alto
gether. Great is the protection hum
bug and plumber and every one has
to hold up his hands while the tariff
barons go through his pockets.

ugees who arrived bring details of
the sinking of the steamship Hipsing,
which belonged to the Indo-China nav
igation company. She was passing
Pigeon Bay within the three mile linn
it early in the morning of July Is,
when the forts fired four times across
her bows. She refused to stop and
four shots were then fired into her side
Still she continued to steam on and
torpedo boat ran out and sank her.
Four of her Chinese crew were killed
and eight Chinese passengers were
injured. The officers of the steamer,
who were foreigners, and one foreign
passenger were taken to Port Ar
thur. The captain was arrested and
placed in confinement for refusing to
stop his ship.
These Russian refugees say also that
the Russian torpedo boat destroyer
Lieutenant Burukoff was blown up by
coming in contact with a mine, but
that the other two torpedo boats re-
ported to have been lost managed to
reach the inner harbor
Land fighting around Port Arthur
continues, but of this the refugees

THE REAL CIVIC HERO.

Alton B. Parker, the lmperturbable
Judge-The Wise Leader of Men.
Those who are called lucky are gen.
chances and jump at conclusions. The
luck of such people never lasts, for
when their luck turns they get rat
tied, and throw wisdom, if they pos
sess any, to the winds. President
Roosevelt has been lucky, but it has
been the luck of the gambler who
takes desperate chances and is sure
to meet reverses when everything
looks brightest for winning.
Before the Democratic national con-
vention met the Roosevelt luck was
at high water mark. In spite of all
the efforts of the Republican ma
chine politicians he had been nomi-
mated by reclamation, had dictated
the platform and felt so sure of his
election that he selected an mex
perienced manager of his campaign,
against the protest of the wisest lead
ers of the Republican party. Since
the nomination of Judge Parker the
Roosevelt luck has turned and for
tune has caught another to lavish her
favors upon.
The eclipse of Roosevelt began
when the star of Judge Parker ap-
peared on the national horizon. He at
once became the national hero who
could be looked upon to do the right
thing at the right time.
The fustian hero Roosevelt, who
inf tho hoortc Of bic fo11orr-
ers with questionable heroism at San
Juan hill, who had slain bears and
catamounts, the cowboy, and the
rough rider, sank into insignifcance
when the real civic hero appeared.
When President Roosevelt refused
to receive the deputation of miners.
his good fortune had deserted him, a
cranky spell possessed him.
"One reason why Republicans be-
gin to fear that Roosevelt luck is
waning u.s." says the New York Post,
undoubtedly, their perception of the
awkwardness of his having suddenly
to appear as an eclipsed hero. Their
rejection is really comic. They
never dreamed of this. Why, it al
most looks as if they had uncon-
sciously drawn their own platform to
fit Judge Parker. They held up a
candidate with a "clear head and
brave heart, ready for every emer-
gency." How by any possibility could
those words be used of the expected
Democratic nominee-a mere judge
who had never smelled powder? Yet
the provoking man quietly displayed
before the country a ready courage in
a great crisis which instantly made
Roosevelts lights burn dim, and
caused the nation to acclaim Judge
Parker as its foremost political figure.
There is a most important aspect
to all this. 1t means much for our
national ideals. We are all hero-wor-
shippers, whether we want to be or
not We have had set before us again
the great civic virtues home-bred
and nurtured in peace. 1t is only
by cherishing and cleaving to them
and honoring them that a nation can
pass on the lamp of progress"
