THE TRUTH
No Matter Whom ii Helps or Hurts

Bryan is credited with having
declared that the platform adopt
ed by the Denver convention
must stand for publicity of cam
paign contributions or he will not
run.
The platform, consequently,
will contain such plank and in
that respect will differ from the
Chicago platform, which is silent
on the subject.

cts a fine thing to live.
IL makes a married man
proud to have home, TO
dress his wife, to give his
children educational adyant-
ages, and to keep his family
in the front rank. 1t takes
money, yes-but it's fine for
the children, delightful for
the wife, satisfying to the
man. But
'.some day your friends
will lay a lily ON your chest,
heap the praise, the rcvcr-
cncc, the kindly tributes that
should have been yours
through life, upon what is
left of you, lay you away,
and proceed to forget you.
"But the widow won't
forget.
The orphans won't forget.
When You go to the ccme-
terry will the widow go to the
poor house, or to live with
friends or relatives, or to
work for a living?
When you pass into the
unknown will your orphans
pass into the asylum or be
put to work to earn a live
lihood?
There is no time to decide
this but now.
If you should abandon
your wife while alive the
law will put you in Jail.
Death relieves you of the

Larger Receipts mt Danvillc-Good Out
look for Tobacco Crop.
Especial to The Times Dispatch1
DANVILLE, VA, August 1.-The re-
ceipts this week on the loose tobacco
market consisted of ~ little larger
quantity of primings than heretofore,
the total not amounting to more than
$4,000 to $4,000 pounds. Prices are con-
4sidered fairly good for the quality.
and have ranged from 1-2 to 3 cents.
There was no old tobacco on the mar
ket this week.
Good rains seem to have fallen in the
entire Old Belt section, which has
greatly relieved tho situation. as the
tobacco inpsome places was beginning
to fare very badly. On the whole a
fairly good crop may now be looked
for, with perhaps a larger proportion
of low grades than last season. and
not as large an increase in quantity as
has been thought heretofore; but this
is stillfa question depending upon the
weather until cutting time.
Redried tobacco Is quiet. but there is
more doing than last week.
