Who Says Hard Times?

Chief Statistician Clark of the agrf- l cultural department estimates that the ninth successive good harvest is practically assured to the American farmer and that the crops of 1908 will be worth nearly $S,000, 100000. Eight billion dollars would pay the net interest bearing debt nine times over.
 Or 1t would pay the national debt and leave enough to buy at par the stock of all the railroads in the country
 It would nearly pay off the entire bonded debt of every American rail- road.
 At assessed valuations 1t would buy every acre of land in New York City and replace every building in it with little remnant over equalling the combined assessed valuations of Chi cago, New Orleans, St. Louis, Seattle and San Francisco, says the New York World
 Com does not travel far from the place where it is raised, which is lucky. Us there are not enough rail- roads Jo carry it.
 A crop of 2.700.0000oo bushels would load 2.5205900 thirty-ton cars, 5f9 moge freight ears than there are iii the coumry of every sort,
 The freight caes of all the world would net carry out wheat and corn.
 Il there were ears enough and if the wheat and corn were loaded into thi1 LOB cars, forty to 9 train, and trains were run at twomile intervals at a speed including stops of thirty m.a sH hour night and day t .,a#.a t#se nearly aix months for the plH.. ion #o pas reviewing stand.

AVOID RISK IN BUYING PAINT.

You take good deal of risk If you buy white lead without having aDso- lute assurance as to it's purity and quality. You know white lead is often adulterated, often misrepresented. But there's no need at all to take any chances. The Dutch Boy Paint CT" trade mark of the National Lead Company, the largest makers of gen uine white lead, on a package of White Lead, is a positive guarantee of purity and quality. It's as depend able as the Dollar Sign. If you'll write the National Lead Company. Woodbridge Bldg, New York City, they will send you q simple and cer- tain outfit for testing white lead and a valuable book on paint, free.

Horticultural Statistics.

This is a very pretty story, very in- teresting,-this report of the govern ment on the conditions of other peo- ples' crops and prognostications of good yields but the bureau of the Department of Agriculture which gath CTS and issues the information is a large and expensive bureau, and some may ask, what is the real use of itf How does it help the farmer? Well. we all know about the "pit"-the "corn pit" and the wheat pit" in Chicago and elsewhere, where they get cor ners on grain and other commodities and maintain the prices to the detrt ment of both the producer and the consumer. Were it not for reliable government statistics on crop produc- tion, the manipulations would be far worse than they are, and at certain seasons the big spectators would get together" and practically fix the prices. The official statistics keep them largely in check. If there were no gov- ernment statistics, the spectators would simply agree on a policy and then manufacture crop statistics to enable them to carry out that policy and the farmer and the bread winner of the country would suffer.

REAL TARIFF REFORM.
The Entire American People Now
 "Want to Be Shown"

Mr Bryan asks eIio# #ill MT. Taft explain to the average man the benefits of pratoe foa?' and adds: 'IIe can easily convince q trast that it profits by the tariff but what about the victim of he sFust2s
 On this entire taHG que lion the great American aa5on is now all from Missouri. and must be shown. ' lEfgh ariGs were placed by the Re. publican5 upon iaraa number Of manufactured articles with two de ciared objects. fls.. 10 project the American manufacturer. that Is tc say, to keep him from being undersoid in the domestic markets by foreign manufacturers who use cheap labor or slave labor; second, to deprive the American manufacturer of the slightest shadow Of an excuse fol using cheap labor or slave labor, and to put him in q position to employ steadily high-elass American work men. and pay them wages which would enable them 10 live in comfort. feed and clotbe their families. and send their children to school.
 Profit sharing not profit logging was Che first fundamental idea of high tariff. and il was because the people of this country were assured solemnly they would share in the profits that they voted into power the party of the high tariff, or as the Republicans cleyerly called it, with considerable effect before they were found out, the protective tariff. As soon as higf tariff made them secure, the beneficial ries began to loot the American people by charging artificial prices in the do nestle markets, that is to say. prices not regulated by actual conditions of supply and demand, but by the undis. puted nature of the vantage ground held by the manufacturers. At the same time they began to regulate" wage scales in order to increase their profits still more, with the result that strikes, riots and other manifestations of great discomfort make the history of protection read like war record The protected manufacturers protest ed that their employees were much bet ter paid than people engaged in sim liar occupations in Europe, but omit ted to state that by market manipula tion, control of output and formation of trusts they had so regulated vari ous great American industries that prices of living rose out of all propor ton to wages. which both in skilled and unskilled labor showed a constant tendency to diminish.
 It was the tendency of the wage tc diminish which gave organized labor it's strength. Many men who under ordinary circumstances would never have thought of joining any kind of society or lodge, formed or joined labor organizations, in order to secure for themselves and their families that real protection which political pro. tection' utterly failed to give. And in their course of conduct they were right for the American home and the American school must be protected.
 The whole aim of the Democratic party Is to protect the American home and the American school by securing justice in taxation, and in order to SC. cure justice in taxation there must be Democratic tariff reform.

 General Demand

of the We'll Informed of the World has always been for simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because it's con- ponent parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action.
 In supplying that demand with it's ex- cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for it's remark able success.
 That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-Informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine-manufacture by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co.,, only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cent per bottle.

Cotton Industries in the South.

In the great cotton belt of the South are 84S mills engaged in crush ing cotton seed for it's oil and other products. In these mills are ZOOS presses and in connection with them 2.7s2 ginstands and 3.126 linters. It is estimated that in the production of cotton seed oil and by products more than $S5,O0O,000 is invested. The mills annually use about 100000 tons of seed, costing about 60,000,00o. When made in oil, cake, hulls and linters and other products. it's value is about S9O,OOO.0O0. At the present time but little more than half the total seed produrt of the country is crushed Popular Magazine.

LET US NOT FORGET
REPUBLICAN, USE or POODLE IN
 NATIONAL CAMPAIGN.
Present Party Leaders and Drlliers Are of the Same Type as Those in Charge of Last Presi-
 dental Election.

For the time heinz Republican boodlers gre remarkably stta and fn- active The coaIze of the campaign has not been marked by single money scandal We do mol believe the Grand Cl3 Party is any more anselic than i was in years past, but 1t is either more cautious il its methods or i has not recovered from ifs Parker scare and is afraid of the e0nee. auences of any moro scandals of the Kind which almost cost gortelyou his eelatation-in fact, would certainly have cost him that valuable asset if he had been member or the minority party. Judge Alton B. Parker is one af tbc most responsible. bieh-spirited. conscientious and clean citizens of zho United States He is working like a Trojan for the cause of Dcmoc- racy, and is the champion of a great principle, the principle of clean cam paisns.
 Judge Parker, it may ba remem- bered and it should be remembered 1t is high time we were remembering few things, this among others-posi- lively, absolutely. undeniabIy, incon- powerfully caught Cortelyou with the goods He made direct charges against Cortelyou, based on the lavish collection of money by that Repub- lican party manager and his adroit use of the sums thus collected, Let us burnish up our memories and recall the fact that the charges against Cor telyou were proved 10 be true, but that was the end of them. The Re pubiicans did not care to vitiate their party success and imperil the results of the campaign by acknowledging the truth had been told concerning their methods and the methods of Cor, telyou.
 Let us refresh those treacherous memories of ours. We forget too much Let us remember that Thomas c. Platt took the witness stand and confessed that corporations had bought immunity from the Repub- licans. Let us remember that sworn testimony on the witness stand re- vealed the fact that insurance com panies had taken money which be- longed to their policy holders, and had given to the Republican party's funds many sums ranging from $1O,0O0 to $50, 1000 at a time. In fact, when George Cortelyou roared, Come through" they came through, early and often.
 Next let us remember the revela' tion of the Hartman fund. We should not forget that it was shown that a Hartman railroad pipe drained into the Republican poodle barrel.
 Disgusting! Outrageous! Un-Ameri' can!
 Remember, no matter what the per sonal character of Roosevelt may be- and it is excellent; no matter what the personal character of Taft may be, and it's chief feature Is phenome- nal suitability which causes him to smile on almost any playful prank on the part of his political boys" no matter what the personal habits and characters of the bigger Republican chiefs may be, the party leaders and drillers, the bosses of the Republican rank and file are the same old crew who shook down the insurance com panies and flashed the order to Harri' man to attend to the drain pipe.
