 But not so with little Margaret. Her requests Tor papa" never ceased and her deep blue eyes told a story of longing more heart-breaking than any words.
 One day she saw her mother with brilliant new diamond on one of her fingers. A child's curiosity led to the explanation of the truth. Not even her mothers permission to put the ring on her own hand assauged the little one's grief, and although, the natural feminine pride, led her to ac- eept the opportunity, she confided to friend at a store, where she was wont to go errands that she would rather have papa than all the diamonds iD the world"
 Meanwhile the preparations for the wedding went on and the date was set for Tuesday, November F. The best establishments of the east were drawn upon, and the wedding rousseau is said to have been worth the total of many mans yearly salary. To carry such a rousseau extra large trunks were ordered made, and the bride-to- be's initials being placed on the out sid'.
 Up at Fresno the rumors reached the ears of Mir. Shepherd, who acted cuiekly. He arrived at the Alexandra hotel in this city last Saturday.

 That same night Mir. Millikin was telephoned for. When he reached the home Mrs. Shepherd met aim aI Jhe door, tears in her eyes.
 "Oh, Ernest, I can't, can't do it." she cried. Ben is here and he prom ises that there shall never be any thing but happiness. Oh, I'm sorry, but it was all a mistake-you and l. want to go back to the old home there is Fresno with just him and Mar, garet,"

ROOSEVELT SC0LDED
 HIS GOVERNOR GUESTS

An interesting dispatch. under date Of Lincoln, Neb., is printed in the Omaha World-Herald:
 "A numbr of republican governors who accompanied President Roosevelt on the trip down the Ohio recently, came in Tor a severe curtain lecture en route. The lecture was delivered by the President himself and was the plain, blunt expression of a plain, blunt man.
 Among the governors called in and made to face the music was George l.. Sheldon of Nebraska. In conse- quence, Sheldon's fighting blood is up, and it is rumored that he may even call special session of the legisla- ture to make suitable and forcible re- sponse to the Presidents rebuKe.
 For the point on which the Presi- dent lectured the governors was the qustion of states rights and centrali zation. Tae President told the state executives that they were way off on this state rights business.
 He told them the time is at hand when the federal government must take over the exclusive control of railroads and all other big corpora tion
 He told them the Republican party must declare for this policy. He told them when they opposed it and per mftted taeir Republican followers in their respective statss to oppose it they were merely contributing aid and comfort to the Democratic enemy.
 The President was especially se- we're with Sheldon, it is learned. Shel- don. according to the report, frankly admitted that he himself was respon- sible for the states rights plank in the Republican platform.
 Roosevelt was first astonished and then angry. He spoke with unusual veAemence, even for him, and Shel- don was at first overwhelmed by the torrent of executive wrath.
 Finally, Sheldon got his courage back and spoke plainly to the Presi. dent. He told him that ninety-nine Nebraska Republicans out Of every 100 stand squarely for the right of the s.ste to administer it's own affairs with out federal interference.
 "He asserted that should the Ne. braska Republicans declare in favor of federal regulation at the expense of the state it would Iot only put Ne. braska surely in the Democratic col umn, but make every state between the Rockies and the Alleghanies eith- CT doubtful or surely Dmocratic.
 There was something of a strained feeling when the conference broke up. Other governors had a similar expe- rience. It is asserted, in short that every Republican governor was sum moned into private conference by the president, and had to face the demand that he support the Roosevelt central izatLon doctrine"

STORY OF OUR PROSPERITY

WASHINGTON, Sept. Every
day that frost hold off adds millions
to the wealth of the American farm
er," said an expert in the Bureau of
Agriculture. This statement gives a
picturesque impression of the enor-
nous value of farm products in this
country, and at the same time shows
how much depends upon the weather
conditions.
According to the farmers calendar,
for instance, September Is sees the
great corn crop at about its height
If fine, warm weather follows, every
day adds to the value of the crop
yield and value. The sunshine of the
last week or two means fatter pocket
books
Definite and detailed reports on the
countrys crops will not be issued
until the last week in November, but
enough has been learned already by
the statisticians of the Department of
the Interior to justify the prediction
that the total value will exceed even
the stupendous figures of last year.

HIGH PRICE FOR
CANNED GOODS
Pack Reported Much Below
the Normal
JOBBERS HAVE SMALL STOCKS
Dealers North Say Prices of Canned
Vegetables and Fruits Will Be
Higher This Winter as Result
of Poor Productive Season.
.JOBBERS HAVE SMALL STOCKS

BALTIMORE, Sept. "a. Special
Now just the packing season for veg
tables and fruits is drawing to close
those engaged in this industry in the
city and throughout the State are
summing up results and making com
parsons with former years. One one
point all agree. That is that this
years pack for the most part, is be-
low the normal and that prices for
canned goods will rule high during
the present winter and the succeed
ing spring.
1t was pointed out that the j0bbers
throughout the country are almost
bare of such stock. 1t is said that the
Garry over" in all lines will be the
smallest for years.
This is true Notwithstanding the
fact that such goods have brought
better prices during the past con-
sumptive period than for several pre-
ceding seasons. These jobbers are
now in the market seeking supplies,
The inquiry comes from the North,
East and West, the last named sec
ticn sending IN the most urgent ord
ere, so it is said, although tie Middle
West has made great strides IN the
canning industry, Indiana, Ohio and
Iowa, in fact, rivaling Maryland and
Delaware IN its output of canned to-
matOes.
Despite this, however. those sec
tions have sent large orders to brok-
ers and packers in this city for to-
matoes and have ordered at full pric-
cs what they need.
Tomatoes being the most prolific
vegetable in growth. are, of course,
the largest packed. Maryland and the
Eastern Shore usually place on the
market annually about 100000 cases
each case containing two dozen cans.
This is about 40 per cent. of the total
pack of the country, which is estimet-
ed at 10000, 600 cases, The price Tor
three-pOund standard stock yesterday
was S71a cents a dozen.
This size and quality is taken as
the basis for fixing values, although
some inferior grades, known as No.
2 standard and seconds, sell lower
This is a remarkably high price be-
fore the packing season closes. 1t
has not been many years back when
the top grade sold at 60 and g. cents
a dozen at this season of the year.
Buyers are eager to secure goods at
the prevailing prices, and the market
is what the trade calls strong, :"
which means that prices are more apt

BOOZE LAW is GOING
TO HAVE A TEST
AS Whether a Dealer Can Open
Doors Sunday.

CHIPPEWA, WIS, Sept 24-(Spec-
iaD -Whether a saloon keeper violates
the law in keeping his doors open
Sunday, irrespective of whether or
not he sells liquor on that day, is to
be decided in the case of John Gallus,
which came up in the municipal court
here today. The charge against Cal
lus was not that he sold any liquor
on Sunday, but merely that the door
of his saloon was open. The case is
the first of its kind to be tried in Wis
consin and the result is awaited with
keen interest, particularly among the
temperance workers who during the
past year or so have waged vigor-
Gus warfare against the saloons in
all parts of the state.

If Frost Will Hold OF.

Discussing the outlook, Secretary
Wilson, of the Department of Agri-
culture said:
Every day that good weather pre-
walls will increase enormously the
yield of the crops. Generally speak
ing, the crops have matured and are
ready for harvesting, but clear wea-
Their and the lack of frost will fatten
the pocketbook of the farmers.
"Of course, everything depends on
the weather, when the size of the
crops is under discussion. While the
weather has been normal, the crops
are somewhat smaller than they were
last year. Every one knows that upon
the volume of the crops depends the
price of the products, supply and de-
mand regulate this.
But unparalleled prosperity exists
in the country. The wage earners are
wonderfully well paid, and they are
buying the finest cuts of meat, lamb
and they insist on having fresh eggs
and tirst-class butter. This helps to
increase the price of farm products.
"One of the most promising develop
ments of the year is that the finan-
ciers of the east now understand that
the real source of wealth is the land.
Strange as it may seem this has new
er been understood before.
Eastern inanciers are now borrow
ing funds from the western farm
ers, who have earned so much money
that they now have large bank ac-
counts There is a plentiful supply
of money from this source, and there
will be no financial stringency unless
the farmers call their loans.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-09-25
Big Crops and Prices.

There is no indication that the
farmers intend to do so. Big crops
mean big profits, especially when
prices are high, and before the wes-
tern farmers will need the money
they have lent to eastern banks there
will be another crop, which will
supply them with all the funds they
require.
These conditions will go a long
way in the direction of preventing a
financial stringency about which there
has been so much discussion.
81 do not share the views of those
who predict a money stringency and
financial disaster.
Every sign points to a continuance
of the marvellous prosperity the
country now enjoys, and as the east
ern fnanciers appreciate more thor
oughly that the real wealth of the
country lies in the soil and cultivate

OO,0OO,OO0 in Sight.

In 1906 the total value of farm
products was $6,794OOO.OOO. Official
estimates of preliminary nature
place the figures for this year at al
most $S,00O,O0O,0OO.
The eight staple crops-wheat,
corn, oats, cotton, potatoes, hay. bar

is predicted, about $5,OOOOOO,O0O In
addition there are cattle, sheep, hogs
and fruit products.
The indications are that frosts will
be late this year, permitting the full

preliminary reports now in hand the
yield of the staples is estimated as

THE OPENING OF YALE.

Venerable Yale has reopened it's of- fees for the business of instructing its students in the mysteries of higher culture. We are glad to see the boys back again brown from their summers exposure and we wish them the best of luck in breaking into the store room of knowledge.
 The Journal and Courier knows the student and takes to him affectionate- ly It has wintered and summered him since 1766. It has watched with ever increasing interest his changes of habit and of custom It has seen the old feeling between the town and the gown pass away. It has seen a new physical Yale take the place of the romantic old TOW of buildings It has seen college presidents come and go but 1t has observed no great change in human nature.
 It is because boys have been boys since the days of the original one that we venture the thought for the bene- fit of the new corners and for all oth- CTS concerned that altercations with the police are undesirable. Fun is fun but stealing other peoples prop erty has ceased to be considered fun fin this large city. IA night off, like Wednesday night, may be forgiven perhaps, but persistent indifference to good manners on the street will surely lead to some ones disgrace. We advise our lovable young friends to have care.

SOME REpUBnrC4N SIMPLICITY.

The new office building for members of the House of Representatives at Washington will be ready for use when Congress comes together in December, and it will be highly illustrative of Re- publican simplicity. The total cost of this building, together with the tunnel by which the Capitol may be reached without braving the torrd heat of the pavements or disagreeable storms, is something over $3,0O0,00O. This is enough money to provide each of the 9S6 members of the House with an sS,000 home at Washington The struc- ture itself is of fine Vermont marble, and the corridors are lined with the same expensive material. The wood- work throughout is of mahogany, fur nishing a fine contrast with the glis- tening white stonework. Each Repre- sentative will have a. private ofice- room. Each oftice-room will have a large square-top mahogany desk for the lawmaker and a second one, only trife smaller and less expensive, for the private secretary. Then there will be g. mahogany typewriting desk, and plenty of mahogany chairs. By the in- troductlon of one of the modern clever talking machines it will be possible for members of the House to recline leis- urely in their office rooms and at the same time hear everything that Is go- ing on in the House, several hundred yards distant.

union has invited into conflict should undertake to use similar wea- pons 1t would be brought under sharp criticism and itself haled into court.
 As Judge Tyner truthfuny said: "our laws protect both capital and labor alike. We have on our statute books a large number of laws rela- tive to the rights of labor, such as hours, etc. The laws are for both the rich and poor alike" That is a simple statement of fact which should sink into the understanding of every combination whether of men or dol lars. Neither one can with safety do what the other is forbidden to do. If the trial is made then the hand of the law will be found as it should be found resting heavily upon the shoul- ders of the offender The Moulders' union in New Haven has been taught the lesson taught tho offending cor porations of the country, that the law is impartial in it's decrees and penal ties; that the man or set of men who take the law into their own keeping do so at their own risk. It seems harsh perhaps but the State could sur vive under no other conditions.

GooD VOICE.

Good Voice is dead He was the great chieftain of the Sioux nation His voice held out until he was near death, and these are said to be his last words: Live at peace with the pale face. Let Wounded Knee be the last of the great battles. Let the memory of Custer be recalled only with shame Let the hatchet rust forever beneath the soil. Trust the Great Father at Washington, and the Great Father will trust you and make you great in the hills and river valleys"
 Sorrow and tears for the dead Good Voice, but joy that the Good Voice family is not extinct and is not likely to become extinct. Members of 1t are even now running for office and their voices are about as good as any body could wish. If their last words are as pleasant and encouraging as the ones they are scattering around now it will be cheering for all con- cerned.
