An interesting item in the returns

Der of births and deaths which occur
red in the county during last year and
and the Herald has endeavored to
publish an abstract OF the returns
from the various townships and cor
porations. but the records are found
to be very incomplete. The returns
are supposed to have all been in for
several weeks, with the exceptions OF
those for the city of Oskaloosa, but so
many omissions have been found that
the records in the present shape are
almost useless and the comparative
total number of births and deaths in
the county. as shown therein, are
erroneous and misleading. Records
for the city of Oskaloosa have not yet
been completed, but the following is
an abstract from the returns now in
for the remainder of the county:

Secretary of State Haywood agrees
with the opinion of the executive with
regard to the situation.
Governor Cummins will notify the
chairman of the state central com
mittees of the parties of the decision
in regard to the matter and they will
proceed accordingly.
1t is probable that the committees
will reconvene the former convention
which met pursuant to the primary
election. 1t is supposed that they will
call a new convention, and the coun-
ties will select delegates in the usual
way. This will include the precinct
caucuses to select delegates to the
county convention, and the selection
of delegates to the state convention
by the county conventions.
The delegates to the conventions
will be selected in the old way and

the farms of Wesley Patterson and
Herk Duncan. Upon arriving at the
Patterson and Duncan farms they
gave out the statement that they were
eye specialists and were informed that
the farmers were in need of treatment
for their eyes. The fact that both
farmers are sufferers from an Attic
ton of the eye made the introduction
of the strangers perfect, however, to
help good thing along and to make
themselves safe they produced a let

paid no cash but was no better Off
than his neighbor as she also signed
what he supposed was a contract for
the payment of $50 for series OF

PROGRESS is MANIFEST.
So Declares r. G. Dun's Weekly Re-
view.

New York, July 1S.--R. G. Dun a.
Co.'S weekly review of trade today
says:
Improvement is slow, but there Is
definite evidence of progress in the
right direction. One of the best signs
is the agreement upon lower wage
scales, without a struggle assuring re-
sumption of much idle machinery that
would have been impossible without
adjustment to altered conditions. Cur
rent retail trade is of fairly good pro
portions for the season and inventors
les indicate that recovery is not men
aced by heavy stocks. Preparations
for fall and winter trade is most &C
tive in the west, but there is a growing
feeling of confidence in the future that
is stimulated by good progress in the
farms.

rainfall range from nothing in the
southwest to over seven inches in
Fayette county. Rapid progress was
made in haying and harvesting, and
large amount of hay has already been
secured in the best of condition. bar.
ley and early oats harvest mas been
completed in southern, and is well adj
vanced in northern districts. ThresS-
ing has begun in southeastern coun.
ties and reports indicate light yields
of wheat, rye and oats. The severe
local rain and wind storms in the
northeastern and portions of the east

will be materially damaged by rust
in these small areas. Corn has con,

on the uplands, in many portions OF
