from 663. .G00, 000 bushels to 5S4. GOO 000 bushels. Tn 1906 the total production of European Russia. including Poland and northern Caucasia, was only 50S = 900 GOO bushels In the three years the total European crop has increased over S0.0O0000 bushels despite the decrease in the Russian crop of over 155 .00O. 900. which means an increase of 235.000. .0O0 for the balance of Europe.
 A part of the decrease can. of course. be laid to the Japanese war and the crop failures. But it is evident that the theory of poor grain growJhs will not explain the loss entirely. Much of northern Europe is exposed to the unfavoraDle weather conditions which prevail in Russia. Yet. in Europe as a whole. the wheat production is not falling off. but. on the other hand, has shown q gradual and steady increase during the very years under consider ation.
 Agriculture in Russia is not profita- ble under present conditions Yet it has been proposed in the United States to legislate the grain exchanges out of business by prohibiting the selling of grain for future delivery" by which the marketing of crops is spread over the periods of year. instead of d few months. with corresponding benefits to price. Until stable price conditions are assured. wheat growing cannot be made profitable to the Russian agri- culturist. who must have as good a market for his grain as the German or American farmer.
 In this connection. it is interesting to note the production of wheat in Eu- rope during each of the last seven years. as well as that of all of Russia thus:

Deafness Cannot Be Iured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an inflamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and when it is en- tirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition. hearing will be destroyed for ever: nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing but an in- flamed condition of the mucous sur faces.

TRIAL BY JURY, TOO!

Referring to the decision Of the
United States court of appeals in over
turning Judge Lands fine of the Stan
ard Oil Company, the Chicago Record
Herald says:
The members of the court scath-
ingly arragned Judge Lands, by in
ference, as denying the right Of trial
by jury TO the defendant corporation,
of attempting TO visit punishment upon
a corporation which had not even been
indicted and of setting his personality
and beliefs above the law.
Many Republican papers heartily
approve the decision. Some of them
are indignant that Judge Lands by

Company the right OF trial by jury. -
but they condemn the efforts Of Demo.

by jury be accorded TO individuals in

THE FARMERS INTEREST
MIR. BRYAN'S PAPER

A Cadillac (Mich) reader of The
Commoner writes: The farmers should
be with us on the tariff and trust
questions. Around here the farmers
are getting az cents a pound for

about 20 per cent. of the leading
wooden mills of the country is charg
ing as much for wooden cloths as
year ago and the farmer must pay as
much for his clothing as he did last
year and he is lucky if he does not
get more cotton in his clothes than he
does wool. Let us direct our efforts

that their interests lie with us. Along
that line lies the road to victory.

They should be with us in the oppo
sition to that Capitalization which
would destroy our system of govern
ment and ultimately make it neces

citizens, to look to the national cap

and the county seat, when seeking re-

They should be with us for the pop

has deep concern in the welfare of

it profit a farmer if he obtain high
prices for his product. and then have
no place where he may. with absolute
confidence, deposit his hard-earned
money?
They should be with us upon the
great question, shall the people rule,

interest in popular government; and If

"AFTER THE ELECTION"

A dispatch to the Chicago Tribune
under date of New York, July %, fol-
lows: The report that the Standard
Oil Company is about to announce an
increase of S500,O00,000 in its capital
stock was received with great interest
in the financial district here to-day.
Similar rumors have been circulated
several times in the last few years.
particularly in the west. but generally
they have been met with denials by
the Standard Oil interests. proml-
nent fnancier who has close relations
with the Standard Oil Company said:
/ am sure that ii is the same old
story revived again and that there is
nothing in il. Certainly this would
be a most inopportune time to take
any such action, with presidential
election only a few months ahead OF
us. | suppose it is possible that some
thing of that kind may be done some
time in the future, but not this year
not now
This would be "a most inopportune
time" to pump a half billion gallons OF
water into the Standard Oil stock. II
anything like that is done it will be in
accordance with other Republican
plans after election
After the election the tariff will
be revised-by party that derives its
campaign funds from the special bene-
ficiaries of the tariff.
After the election the contribu-
tions to the campaign fund will be pub
lished-when it is too late for the peo-
pie to learn that the trusts pay the
bills for the Republican campaign.
After the election Standard OH
trust stock will be watered-if that
course suits the purposes of the Rock
efellers and the Rogerses; and after
the election the people re-
elect the special privileges party
they will pay dearly for their lndlifer-
ence to the solemn warning confront
ing them on every hand.

statement in which. referring To the
propositions voted down in the Re

there been any attempt to make them
such by the administration, nor by any
other influential element in the partv.
The seventh concerns injunctions"
Many Republican papers suppressed
this portion of Mr. Ellis sta oment.
The reason for the suppression will
be readily understood when it is re-
membered that among the proposi.
tions which Mr.. Ellis says are in no
sense issues before the people" are
the following:
Publicity Of campaign contributions.
Ascertaining the value Of railroads.
The national income tax.
The encroachment Of predatory
wealth.
Popular election Of United States

Mr.. Ellis has, perhaps, noticed that
since the publication Of his state

discovered that the people have some

Where Mark Twain Had Gone.

When Mark Twain was working
hard on one of his earlier books that
brought him fame he sailed for Eu-
rope with his family. He kept up his
writing on shipboard, leaving it only
for brief recreations. One day an APP
preaching storm drove him to the
cabin, and as he retired to work he
left word with his daughter, then a
very little girl, to explain his absence.

A SUGGESTION TO Mr.. SHERMAN

Representative James S. Sherman, the
Republican nominee for vice-president.
will make a tour of the west in behalf
of the Republican ticket. We sug-

house, tell the people what he thinks
of the Republican revolt against Can
nonism.
BY the time Mi Sherman gets
through explaining TO Republicans the

time to devote to his widely adyer-
