Edwards, "but I consider them very valuable in

of typhoid fever and other infectious diseases
nearly all physicians find that their patients would

they do they prescribe them. Of course, these
stimulants are abused by being used to excess by
many persons, but that fact does not lessen the

into the hands of one of the newspapers of the
city Forthwith the eager reporters, who live
only to feed the popular fancy with the latest

spread interest in the liquor question and has

Of course, there are not wanting medical men
who were willing, for reasons which it is, per-
haps, charitable not to pry into, to pronounce the
action wise and praseworthy, and to pitch their
voices to All Eighteenth Century tune and chant
the praises of John Bareycorn as medical

the columns of the Record-HeYald, perhaps the
least sensational of Chicago's papers, indicate
the tone of comment:

party ("the only party that ever did anything
for temperance), and the beginning of "Repub-
lican good times" the production of spirits was
far less than half the present figure and the
withdrawal for consumption only a trhe more
than half
In the 10 years qUhisky making has gro7On al
most no percent
When we come to consideration of fermented
liquors (the general term under which the gov
eminent deals with beers and ales) find again
large increase. In the fiscal year 1906 there
were produced in the United States 54,651,637
barrels of beer This was the high beer mark
in the history of the American people. A year
before, in 1905, the production had been only
4o.495,54O In the year 1904 the production had
been trife lower than this, or 4S,2os13a bar
rels. while in the fiscal year 1900 the Nineteenth
century closed with the production at only &c.,
330s49 barrels.
But the fiscal year 1907 sets a new mark Tor
the beer food and shows the production OF o.
546,111 barrels of beer, an increase OF almost
100000 barrels over the tremendous production
of 1906.
Presuming that each barrel of beer averages
TO cost the consumer $3.50, for this one item
the gin-mer almost $6O,OOOOoO more than IN
any preceding year of American history
This increase stands out in still stronger rehet
when we compare it with the production OF ten
wears ago In the fiscal year 1897, the produc-
ton of fermented liquors was only 34,423o94
barrels. In other words, in ten years time Our
production of beer has increased more than "a
100000 barrels or more than 70 percent.
Turning to the question of revenue, we dis
covered that the total revenues arising from the
liquor business during the year 1907 reached
S215, 1894, 72OO7, or increase of over the blood
money of 1906 amounting to almost $17,oOo,ooo'
to be exact, $16s6s, So63s.
When we take this also back for comparison
with the revenue of decade ago, we find that
the increase has been enormous. In 1897 the
total liquor revenue was only $114,477,5O0 In
ten years, under the rule of the party OF great
moral ideas" the liquor bride has grown more
than $1OoooO,OOO
The reader WILL of course, indulge the hope
that the great spread of Prohibition territory III
the latter part of the year 1907 will check this
increase That hope is legitimate, and yet the
discovery is made from the report before us that
the first three months of the fiscal year 1908,
that is to say, July, August and September 1907
gave no sign of any such decrease.
In those three months as compared with the
corresponding three months of the preceding
year everything that has to do with the govern
ment's regulation of the liquor traffic witnessed
an increase, with the exception of the two items

Why the East is For Bryan.

Several reasons may be offered,
each poteut In its way, for the belief
that She East will give Bryan great
er support this year than In any
previous campaign The strongest
argument, howevar, may be found In
financial conditions.
The West did NOS ,eel the pinch OF

people OF the East. Here We had
good crops and large ilocks aud
herds We iels she panic only while
prices on live stock were on the down

Burning Bottom Hay.

Probably less money has been real
lied from the crop OF Marias des
Cygnes river bottom hay this season
than from any crop OF late years.
The oveIf)ws OF the early summer
damaged q considerable portion Of
1t, but there Is said TO be many acres
uncut which was not damaged, at
least to any serious degree. One hay
man states shat prices have not been
as good as In previous years, and
this, he thinks, is the principal cause
for this years crop being neglected.
W. d: Warnsing, who owns a large
body OF bottom land east OF town,
was unable to dispose Of his hay at
any price. He even offered to give 1t
away to anybody who would cut and
remove 1t, but there were few takers.
He is now cutting and burning 1t 10

messages for the head OF that party,

not been grateful for the $3.50, 900
which Mr. Hartman collected and
gave In 1904 Penrose, as one OF the
