The continued fine summer wealth

sections, and reports coming In are
very much more encouraging than
heretofore. Estimates OF the yield
are being raised, and is now pre-
dicted that with continued fine
weather we will have a crop very lit
tie below the average.
The yards are entirely free CT
mold, which makes the outlook
bright for fine quality Most of the
yards are now in blow, and 1t is said
the hops are blowing out very low
on the poles, indicating a heavy yield
in proportion to the vine. The coast
outlook is unchanged. Some esti-
mates are made as high as It's, 900
bales for the Oregon crop, but this
Is considered excessive by reliable
parties. The growing weather in all
coast sections has been very favor
able. Crop news from England is
very conflicting, some reporting the
crop to be very backward and esti-
mating the yoeld as 100000 cwt.
other reports are that the vine show

Uneasy Lies the Head.

The old saying that Uneasy lies the
head that wears crown" has been
very well illustrated during the remark
able gathering of royal personages in
London. The emperor of Germany and
the kings of Norway and Spain. to-
gether with their .Iileens, have been the
VII of England. OF course the meet
ing Of four of the worlds crowned rul-
ers is an unusual thing and has excited
much comment, but most significant
and noticeable feature of the gathering
has been the redoub!ed vigilance of the
secret service men both in London and
in the lands through which the rulers
travelled TO reach that city
1t is all very we'll to speak Of this as
the most highly civilized age of
the worlds history, but humanity has
not reached the stage where one
ruler can pay friendly visit
10 another in times of peace
without being in mortal terror
of his life every minute Of the day and
night and his fear, it need hardly be
said, is not of accidental dangers which
may beset his journey or surround him
when in a strange land, but his dread
is of violent death at the hands Of man.
These rulers too he it remembered, rep
resent some of the most enlightened
nations of the earth and as rulers go
they are all fairly popular among their
own people.
Probably there is greater need of
police vigilance at such a time in Eng
land than would be necessary else
where. for England has long been a
favorito resort for anarchists exiled
from their own lands and it has been
frequently asserted that they were al
lowed to remain in England unmOlasted
on condition that the English royal
family should not be made the object
Of their attacks. However that may
lie, it is certain that relatively few at
tempts to assassinate British rulers
have been made in recent times rs com
pared with assassinations and attempt
ed assassinations in the capitals or
the continent. Any unpleasant incident
which might mar such a gathering oil
ldistingui visitors in London would
| he "A bad blow to British pride ant
British hospitality, and so the extra
vigilance of the detectives and police
officials is easy to understand. The
king business is not all fun.

A Maine Sailor in Turkey.

The Turkish navy does not rank very
high among the navies of the world,
being lust a little stronger than that
of Switzerland, but it is interesting to
mite that a Maine man has just been
named as its commander. The new
admiral, Ransford D. Bucknam. was
horn down in Rucksport, the pic
,uresoue old town on the Penobscot
which has sent out SO many good
sailors during the past century. He is
cnlv AZ years Of age and his early
training was in the American merchant
marine. Later he became trial captain
for the American war vessels built for
the Cramps and in this capacity he
commanded a vessel built at Phila-
delphia for the Turkish government
He look the new vessel to CONSTANT
nople and while there's the Sultan
offered him the position of naval ad-
visor Of the Turkish navy and from
that position he has risen in few
years to be the highest officer in the
Turkish service.
The story is told that two years ago
on July Fourth this patriotic son of
E1cksuort made the entire Turkish
fleet celebrate the great American day
Of Independence. He organized games
and competitions, had his band play
American patriotic airs. delivered a
Fourth of July Grafton to his sailors
and set off fireworks in the evening.
Instead Of & rerrimand this brought
praise from the Sultan VINO respected
his patriotic sentiments and admired
his spirit Of independence, The
Turkish navy IS not likely to figure in
any war in the Immediate future, but it
is never known when this country or
one of the European powers Will have
TO make a naval demonstration in
Turkish waters to enforce some de-
mand which the Sultan is traditionally
slow in granting.

Republicanism Pays Missouri.

Missouri is being shown the diff
ference between Republican state
treasurer and Democratic state
treasurer. For the q years preceding
1904 that state had had a Democratic
state treasurer. In 1904 a Republican
was elected to the Office. During all
those 81 years the Democratic state
treasurers turned in s443,OS1 from in
terest on the deposit of funds belonging
to the state. In the two years and
eleven months since the Republican
treasurer assumed his Office. he has
turned into the treasury $231,O72 from
the same source. The annual average
of Democratic state treasurers was
$4,000 while the annual average under
Treasurer Gmelich. with one month to
hear from, is $4,000.
The sum in the custody of the
present treasurer has not averaged
larger than that which his predecessors
held in trust. while the interest rate
has been lower than it was in earle,
years. Naturally. under these circum-
stances. the taxpayers of Missouri are
drawing comparisons not at all com.

not eligible for reelection under the
constitution. the logical thing Tor
Missouri to do next year is to choose
another Republican treasurer and
full set Of Republican state officers
along with him. Except for the
governorship, the Republicans made a
clean sweep of Missouri in 1904 and
they should make a thorough job of it
in 1908. The people Of the state cam
not fail to see that such course will
pay financially as well as in other i'm

Grandmother's Memories.

Grandmother sits in her easy chair,
In the rudy Sunight'S glow
Her thoHGnts are wandering far away
In the land Of Long Ago.
Again she dWells in her fathers home.
And before her loving eyes
In the light of q glorious summer day
The gray old farmhouse lies.
She hears the hum of the spinning wheel
Ana the spinner's happy song;
She sees the bundles of ;iaX that hang
From the rafters dark and long;
She sees the SunbeamS glide and dance
Across the sanded floor:
And feels on her cheek the wandering
That steals through the open door.
Eeyond, the flowers nod sleepiy
At the well-sWeep. gaunt and tall
And up from the glen comes the musical
roar
OF the Instant waterfall.
The cows roam laZily to and fro
Along the shady lane;
The shouts of the reapers sound faint and
far
From the fields Of golden grain.
And grandma herself. happy girl.
Stands waite hing the setting SUM-
While the spinner rests and tile reapers
cease.
And the long DAYS work is done:
Then some thing wakes her-tile room is
dark.
Ard vanished the sunset glow:
And grandmother Wakes with sad
surprise,
From tie dreams OF long ago.
