York for Denver four or five days in
advance of the New York delegates
to the national Democratic conven-

Murphy desires to meet the leaders
from the various states as soon as
they begin TO arrive at Denver.
I'VE are uninstrudted and We
will wait until we get to Denver and

be nominated Mr. Murphy said:

The American crops for 1908 will
worth nearly $S,OOO.OOO.OOO. ac-
ording to figures prepared by the
apartment of agriculture. In max

'tatistician said that "for eight
ears the American farmer has en-
Dyed unprecedented prosperity and
low the ninth huge harvest is prac-
ically assured; never have there
pocn nine such years, years of big
fields and high prices"
DO you take these figures in?
eight billions of dollars with this
view there is no sense in talking
lbout hard times. Confidence ought
o come swiftly back to the human
mind which considers the crops Of
1908 The crops have been the
very reason and bulwark OF the un-
precedentcd prosperity Of the past
few years. The Republican party
has been claiming the credit Of
prosperity, It is true, but it is a

Every man to his trade" is an
old adage and Is familiar to nearly
all or us. 1t is brief In its wording
but conveys great deal In its mean
ing. 1t is merely a terse way OF
saying that man who makes a spe-
cialty OF any one thing knows more
about, and Is more proficient in his
particular specially than any one
else could be. 1t Is for this reason
that we all seek a specialist when
we have any serious physical all
ment. 1t Is for the same reason that
The Rydale Remedy Co. went to one
OF the best specialists in the United
States on liver and intestinal trou-
bles, a professor In a Columbus, O.,
Medical College, and secured from
him a prescription from which Ry-
1ale's Liver Tablets are made.
This specialist knew more about liv-
er troubles than a doctor who treats
all diseases, and that is why Ry-
dale's Liver Tablets relieve and cure
more quickly all liver troubles than
the ordinary liver pills and pow
ders.

/ realize that In this age railroads
are necessary to development and TO
the prosperity Of the people and devel-
Opment, and prosperity Of the people is
necessary TO the success and prosperity
Of the railroads. There is no legiti-
mate reason Tor antagonism between
the two. Their interests are, aud should
be, mutual. All that the people, as a
people want is Just what they are en-
titled to. All the railroads should
want is just what they are entitled to,
and neither the railroad commission
or the courts should give or allow them
more.
My life, both public and private, be-
fore and for the seventeen years l have

Woman'a Tnvaaion Of EducatiOn.

The invasion of the higher institu-
tiOns Of learning in this country by the
Gentler sex is one of the most signif-
cent events in these days of extraordi
nary occurrences. Throughout the land
note Of warning has recently been
sounded TO the effect that, If not resist
ed, women will Overrun the colleges. It
is predicted that the men will take TO
the trees or the deep sea IL the number
of girls who attends college continues
to increase. Lamentations are hard on
all sides over the usurpatiOn Of the
teaching profession by women. So
great indeed, is the alarm felt in some
quarters that President Hall has come
out in advocating ''men's rights" He
thinks the vital question now in edu-
cation is whether man will be able to
survive in view Of womRn's aggression.
II is evident from the great furofe in
the world that American women at least
have an immense amount Of gumption (;
and wherever they find an opening they
rush in and take possession Of every
thing in sight, 80 that poor man must
fight for mere existence.
The remarkable readiness with which
N0lANh nave bohNu o0Nanbdkg VI GQI-
cational opportunities in this country
is, 90 far as we know, unparalleled in
the history Of the sex. Whether this
means, as some people think, the over
turning Of civilization, or whether it
insures the sound moral and intellectual
development of the race, is not proper
to be discussed at this time, though for
ourselves we lean decidedly in the direc-
ton Of the latter view. A study of
European life will probably convince
anyone that the method Of educating
women in the old world has not proven.
