If. as the railroad presidents and
trust magnates are declaring, there is
a period of business depression ahead,
who is 10 blame for it? 1t must be
charged to republican management and
policy. for that party has had full con-
troll of all departments of the govern
ment for the past 10 years and if there
is any needed legislation. or any bad
laws that ought to have been repealed
or amended, there has been ample time
and opportunity to attend 10 it.
II monopolies of transportation and
manufacturing have been encouraged
and created. until of their own excess
es they have defeated their own pros
perity. the republican party is alone 10
blame.
If the tariff has fostered trusts. that
are gOrged on the profits of an exploit
ed people, so that reaction and bust
ness depression are possible, who is
TO blame?
If the cost of living is inordinately
high and wOrllingmen are striking for
higher wages. the reason is apparent
and must be charged to the republican
policy of trust protection as the chief
cause
If the goose has been killed that has
laid the golden eggs. by stufing her
with prosperity that was only intended
for trusts and corporations to feed on,
who is to blame?
If the wheat farmer finds that the
price of his poduct is low and pro-
tected prices are high. so that his
profit is little. if any, will he blame his
own skill as a husbandman and a kind
ly nature that has produced good crops
or the tariff that has fostered trusts
which are projected in charging in,
creased profits and for which the re-
publican party is responsible?
There is one thing certain that any
prosperity that the farmer. the bust
ness man. or the wOrkiugman has en-
joyed who receives no protection OF
benefit from tariff or other monopoly
must work out his own salvation. fol
no system can be contrived that will
help everyone without everyone paying
his own share or even more than hi:

There are three critical stages in a
voman's life which leave their mark
in her career. The first of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from a
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through i'll health GHtes
from one or another of these i'm
pOrtant crises.
Women should remember that Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs has
carried thousands of young girls over
sthe critical period of puberty, has
prepared mothers for childbirth, and
in later years carried them safely

from grateful persons, two of which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.

The old order has radically changed
when the governor of North Carolina,
meeting the governor Of South Caro-
lima at the jamestown exposition, must
needs refrain from the historic saIu-
tation because OF temperance scrupIes
on the part OF each.
The southern states are now the

and Virginia are dry" except In a few
cities
The boast of Chairman Jones, of the
prohibition national committee, that
"the whole southland appears to be
on the warpath to drive out the last
vestige Of the liquor business is not
extravaganza, nor is his prediction ov-
ersanguine that licensed drinking will
become practically extinct in Texas
Oklahoma and Arkansas within de-
cade.
This revolution has been effected
through local option, which obtains in
Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Arkansas
Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky Mis-
sissippi and North Carolina. Only in
Florida, where the license fee is ST.
900; In Mississippi, where 1t runs from
5000 to $1,000, and in Atlanta, where
it is $1,000, has this phase of the ques-
ton cut any considerable figure. Nor
is there any material gain in the vot-
ing strength of the national prohlpi-
ton party. The change from the ole
conditions is the verdict Of the south
ern conscience on the rum question
presented as a local issue and as q
menace to the home.-New York

NEW YORK LETTER.

New York, May 6.-Reading, Union
Pacific and Shelters furnished about
all of the activity IN the stock market
today. Trade in Union Pacific was on
a large scale and prices for this Sc
curity swayed back and forth within a
rather wide range. The bears had the
better Of the argument at the finish.
Crop damage reports from the south
west and a higher grain market pre-
vented any enthusiasm upon the part
of the bull spectators. At the final
close tonight Union Pacific shows a
loss of two points while the balance
of the list declined sympathetically
about a point.
Irregularity was the rule of the day.
Declines in one quarter and advances
in another. Professionals had the mar
ket to themselves and they took ad-
vantage of every opportunity to scalp
out one-eighth or a quarter.
The government report which will be
Issued upon the tenth of the month,
will give Wall street a better idea of
the crop situation. A great many trad
ers are of the opinion that the crop
situation is exaggerated by the board
of trade operators. The market upon
the whole closed weak and irregular
with declines throughout the list.

CHICAGO LETTER.

Chicago, May 6.-WHEAT-Not since
the palmy days of Letter and Par
drige has the wheat market shown
such activity and general speculation
The professional element that trade
day in and day out and figure on Sc
curing a small profit are In the minor
ity in the wheat pit. Outside specula-
tors have taken hold OF the market
themselves. Believers in the crop dam
age stories have backed their opinion
by buying wheat and as a consequence
prices have sustained a remarkable
rise. New high records were established
for all the wheat options. The May
sold at So cents: July at s5B and Sep
TENDER over ST. Crop damage reports
and a general belief that the crop will
not be over 70 per cent. of a full one,
caused a buying wave which advanced
prices about a cent a bushel over Sat
urday's figure. The market closed
strong with indications for still further
advances.
CORN-Ruled stronger although the
volume of trade was not large owing
chiefly TO the activity in wheat. Spec
ulators as a rule devoted more time to
the wheat market than any of the other
pits. Weather conditions in the west
are anything but favorable. Planting
| has begun in the south west, but farm
ers are discouraged over the late
! spring. There was nothing in the news
to affect prices either way materially
/ Cash demand continues fair; sales TO
the seaboard light. The speculative
| market closed steady.
| OATS-Dwindled down to a narrow
professional market again. Lauida-
ton in the May option has about spent
itself. The deferred futures followed
closely the fluctuations on other
cereals. The market closed steady to
l firm
