SHORT, SHARP AND SNAPPY

The government is having a whole
lot of trouble with more departments
than that engineered by Secretary
Wilson. In the first place the trouble
in the Department of Agriculture has
spread and seems like the yellow fever
in the south to be getting worse in
stead of better. Since the resignation !
Of DR.. Moore, of the Bureau of Soils |
was accepted, it develops that there
have been in the past year 291 persons
whose designations have been accepted
in the Department, that is to say, they
were dropped from the roll for the
good of the service. But since the
conference of the President and the
Secretary of Agriculture at Oyster
Bay, it has been determined that there
shall be no more such designations &C
copied and an employee of the Depart
ment will not be allowed to get out
under fire, to escape being discharged.
Whether or not any criminal proceed
ings will be instituted against DR..
Moore for his connection with the
Nitro Culture Company is not know own.
There is at present no indication of
oriminality in his procedure but the
Secretary is making the investigation
in all branches of the department very
thorough, and whether anything will
be developed worth presenting to the
grand jury is not known. 1t seems
now that there will likely be special
attorney appointed to conduct what is
Popularly known as the ''cotton inves-
tigation." The attorney will not be
Morgan Beech, the present district
attorney, who is conducting the inves-
tigation before the grand jury. he

ney anyhow and his resignation has
already been handed in. It is thou ght
that as he has all the preliminary in
formation about cotton leaks in his
hands, he will be made special attor.
ney and allowed to proceed with the
whole of the Agriculture Department
investigation and possibly with some
other Investigations OF like natur,
that are almost sure to come up as soor
as Congress gets in session again. I
may be said that there is going to bt
lot of investigating Of the various de
psrtments and probably the who'll
method of making appropriations
chat has been customary for SOM
years past may be changed. The prac
tice started when Congress appro
priated $50, 600, 900 for the preliminar,
EXPENSES of the Spanish War an
without ever demanding an account
ing. There was no fault found wit
this procedure because the exigencie
of the situation demandedit. But fror
that it came to making blanket apprC
priations for various departments an
when secretary fonnd himself wit
large funds in his hands and no spec
fc instructions for their disposal, b
: was very apt to branch out in his d,
, partment and start new work, the ca
Tying through OF which demanded lai
ger and larger sums each year. Man
of the secretaries have cooiy create
aeGcits and gone to Congress nel
year fully expecting that they woul
be met. Congress has re-enacted a
ld,Iaw making itpunishable with fin
dismissal and imprisonment for q chi
to create deficit in his departmel
and there is going to be trouble Il
several secretaries and bureau chic
when it comes TO making out appr
priations for the coming fiscal year.

COMMODITY PRICES EASY

BER OPENS WITH THE BUsI-
NESS PROMISE VERY FAVOR
ABLE.

New York, Sept. Bradstreet's today says:
September opens with fall buying apparently
at maximum, marked activity in all lines
of industry. liberal buying by railroads of rails
and supplies. currency shipments to the country
to move crops increasing and with confidence
as to the outlook for trade previously noted
strengthened by the successful issue Of the
Russian-Japanese peace negotiations. These lat
ter, Jointly with the increased pressure Of sup
plies Of agricultural products at leading mar
kets, have had distinct effect upon many
commodity values, the tendency being toward a
lower level in cotton, live animals, potatoes and
butter. 1t Is to be noted however, that home
products are strong and higher on the week.
Something like u transference Of fall trade
activity from west to east is indicated In the
reports that house trade is less active rela-
lively In the former section owing to the re-
turn home CT excursionists. whereas the east
ern markets have been benefited by an influx
Of out-of-town buyers. Western houses are,
| however, pushed to fill orders previously re-
ceived and business west and northwest Is
still heavily In excess of year ago. Large
eastern centers report marked activity in all
lines OF cotton goods and larger buying of
clothing shoes, millinery, lumber, building ma
tertal and hardware. Southern trade advices
are of good tone, except in the quarantine
| sections and in parts Of Texas
From the Pacific coast it is learned that
Alaska has shipped 100000 gold to this coun-

Wool has shown sustained strength on good
demand from manufacturers. Leather and all

DURUM WHEAT PRICES
DULUTH FEELING AROUND FOR
A STABLE BASIS ON WHICH TO
WORK EXPORT BUSINESS.

A considerable quantity Of durum wheat has
already been bought ''to arrive at Duluth
says the Duluth Commercial Record, probably
something over a quarter of a million bushels.
1t is assumed that all Of this wheat or prac-
tcally all, has been sold for export as eastern
mills are rather Indifferent about it, even at
the present discount Of 15@16c under No. +
northern. In fact, the trade is somewhat on
the fancy order, exporters here being unable
to say just how large demand may exist
for it.
out to the limit, as No. 2 hard, Kansas, shipped
out via the gulf ports, is costing the foreign
miller no more than the No. 2 durum, shipped
out via the northern ports, is costing.
Further than that, the number of foreign
mills that will use it are, as Is the case in
this country, limited in number, and their re-
quirements may be filled any day. 1t is under
stood that Minneapolis mills have practically
ceased buying it.

MARVELLOUS DISCOVERY FOR
THE CURE OF ALL FORMS
OF CONSTIPATION ~ NOT
IA HABIT BUT A CURE
YOU DECREASE THE
DOSE UNTIL CURED.

After many years Of study and prac-
tice physician specialist has discov-
cred the cure for constipation. It is
called Chase's Constipation Tablet
s,.s do not mean, - said the physician
to several of his colleagues announcing
his success, II do not mean just an
other pill that breeds the pill habit.
Ny remedy is a cure. By gently forcing
all the digestive organs to perform their
functions it, restores them all to health
and strength.
1sTHE MORE, THE LESS
Tho more you take the less you need
until you need none-for you are cured.
My effort all along was to avoid the evil
of the ordinary remedy which pampers
organs already weak and SO makes the
patient a slave to the pill. Remember
Nature expects every organ to do its
duty
Physicians have long recognized the
fact that constipation is at the bottom
of nearly every disease. 1t saps al
energy, and makes life a burden; il
opens the doors to all evil germs and
| makes the body too weak to resist
them.
