PENN YAM, N Y, March s---(Special CORE
spondence)-On Saturday DR.. Tiffany finished the
first of the two months he is devotng to a lecture
trip through western and central New York in
the interests of the state committee, at Penn Yam.
The meeting was thorough-going success, due
largely to the splendid hustling of Mr.. E. H.
Mack, acting chairman of Yates county (who is
father and father-in-law of the Prohibition sing
ers, the Sutfns).
Mr. Mack is deserving of the greatest praise
for the success of the meeting, in view of the
time and place. Because it could not be other
wise arranged, it was called at 1 80 Saturday
afternoon, at the court house.
The doctor spoke on "The Issue Of 190S,' and
SAP was raised for the campaign fund.- one-half
of it cash.
This brings the amount raised in about three
weeks actual working time by DR.. Tiffany to
1888, 1891 of which is cash.
DR.. Tiffany spoke once at Syracuse while on
vacation.

gates from any of these cities can be seated in
any county convention (and Congressional con
venton from Buffalo, Rochester and New York;
unless elected at these March 81 primaries.
Prohibitionists of these cities, ATTENTION!
Write your county chairman at once, and also
the custodian of primary records at the county
seat, and ask about these matters and get posted.
Attention is again called to the fact that all the
above primary election matter only refers to the
cities above named, and to no other part of New
York state. Caucuses outside these cities will not
be held until called later by town or city chair
men, at such time and place as they wish.
Every Prohibitionist is urged to write "Hon.
John S. Whalen secretary of state, Albany and
ask for copy of the Election Law which will
be supplied free. Or, if more handy, get one
of your county clerk, also free, and study it.
The primary Election Law" is a different law,
and only applies to the cities above named.
Columbia county, of the second concentration
district, under the efficient leadership of Chair
Mcneil and Coley Chadwick its Venango
worker, is busy saving wood. CThis county had
only 113 Prohibition votes last fall) Mr., Chad

cured of which $1O725 is cash. and ninetysix
Venango pledges, nearly all from prominent old
party men. Since he commenced work December
10 with two weeks lost time) his report is:
Venango pledges, 27o; cash raised, $315; pledges
$124o.
This record of work and securing war supplies
to be used in Venango work within the county,
with such a slender base to build on, IS certainly
wonderful. The beauty of it is that it will not

to the various workers. etc. In order that there
may be reason for failure to put them out,
Mr.. Pitts has advised every chairman that the
state committee will pay the expense if necessary,
although it hopes it will not be necessary
Every hve Prohbitonist in each county is
urged at once to write his chairman, offering his
services to correct and revise the enrolment of
the voters individual town or ward. If few
hundred Prohibitionists will do this, the job will
be done rapidly and accurately. The supplies fur
nished are stated by old party politicians to be
the most complete system used by any
political party in the state
Mr.. Pitts has also been busy during the past
week wrestling with the primary law, as in all
counties where a single city is under that law,
Prohibition caucuses must be held in those cities
(not in the towns) March 81, and a county con-
venton must be held especially to elect dele
gates to state and Congressional conventions.
This convention cannot nominate ticket, simply
elect delegates to a higher convention. Then, in
October, the regular autumn primaries must be
held to elect delegates to nominating conventions.
This March 81 primary only refers to the cities
of Albany, Cohoes, Watervliet, Auburn, Buffalo,
New York, Rochester, Lockport, Niagara Falls,
North Tonawanda, Utica, Syracuse, Troy,
Schenectady, and Yonkers according to the
county clerks of the state, with every of
whom Mr.. Pitts has been corresponding.
In these cities the county chairman must on or
before March II file with the custodian of

tions) a statement giving the time and place of
the county convention Gas well as of Congress
sional convention in Erie, Monroe and the coun-
ties comprising New York City,, and the number
of delegates to be elected to each from each sep
arate ward in such city. Mr. Pitts has sent to
the chairmen the proper blanks drawn by him,
with Instructions upon which to give the "cus
todian' the proper information AS soon as these
are received the custodian will appoint place and
hour for caucus in each ward and advertise it for
five days in some paper of the city. The in
spectors of election preside over the caucus which
is held at the same time and place as the Demo

primaries, may vote in these primaries All other
Prohbitionists are dsfranchised by the law.

FINDINGS NOT KEEPINGS.
Lost Articles Are Always Crying Out
For Their Owners.


When one is on the public thorough
fare or in the street car or train or
boat and picks up an object that is
valuable, is it his?
True, he may find something which
is too small and trifling to warrant
searching to find the owner, such as q
handkerchief. pair Of gloves, etc.
But when he finds something of value
1t is not his until he has done every
thing in his power to find the owner.
The street railways and trains are
so systematized today that if, when
one finds an object Of value. he re-
turns it to the company's representa-
tive it is almost sure to catch up with
its owner. Every person Of intelli-
gence knows that the first place to
inquire for it is at the lost and found
department
When. however. one is on the street
and finds something which, If he lost
it himself. he would very much like to
have returned. there are the columns
of Il newspaFe" in which to advertise.
If he fails to find Tho owner after
this. then he can rightfully call it his
own arc have clear conscience. but
If he avoids looking over the lost and
found columns anG fails to do his part
toward finding the owner he is almost
as dishonest as if he took the goods

The Tariff and the Farmer.

The farmer does not agree with
candidate Bryan that the tariff is
such vicluns affair, for it protects
him from competition with cheaper
outside products.
These are some of the duties which
have been of great advantage to the
farmer that Mr. Bryan does not ap-
prove of:
Cattle, il less than one year old,
81 per head; all other cattle il valued
at more than $l4 per head, S3.75 per
head; il valued at more than S14 per
head, 271G per cent ad valorem.
swine, Sl.5 per head.
Horses valued at $50 or less per
head, $50 per head; ii valued at over
$3.50. % per cent ad vaIorem.
Sheep, one year old or over, $3.50
per head; less than one year old, Ii
cents per head.
Now, he who raises live animals for
sale cattle, swine, horses or sheep
for the market-is protected from the
competition of our Canadian neigh
bors to the extent shown In these
schedules.
When it comes to the produce this
is what we tiDd in the DiDgley law
as means of keeping the home
market for our own farmers:
Corn, 10 cents per bushel OF 5G
pounds.
Oats, 10 cents per bushel.
Wheat, 25 cents per bushel.
Butter, 6 cents per pound.
Cheese, cents per pound.
Fresh milk, 2 cents per gallon.
Beans, 45 cents per bushel of &C
pounds.
Cabhages, 3 cents each.
Eggs, cents dozen.
Hay, "a per ton.
Onions, 40 cents per bushel.

Women Who Wear Well.

It is astonishing how great a change Q
few years OF married life often make In
the appearance and disposition OF many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, faint echo
of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
rage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
OF its freshness and the form OF Its
fairness.

Serious For Once.

from India brought with him goodly
stock of souvenirs. Among them was
a pair of laughing jackasses, which he
intrusted to one of the sailors. Tom
Pinch.
Alas! The unaccustomed shipboard
life did not agree with the creatures.
and In spite OF all Toms care they
pined and finally died.
When he discovered the catastrophe,
Tom was in despair.
II daren't tell the captain!'
Don't shirk it, mate" said his pal
Break it to him gently. You'll find
it'll be all right"
The advice seemed sound. and Tom
