BRYAN'S HOT SHOT FOR
THE TRUSTS.

"The trusts have grown in number,
in strength and in arrogance, at
the very time when the Republican
party was Boosting Of its enforce
ment of the law.
"If in the presence of an aroused
people, and in the heat of a campaign
the Republican party contents
itself with . colorless platform on
this subject, what can We expect in
the way of activity when uhe exigen-
cies of the campaign are passed!
National incorporation is remedy
which would make conditions worse
because without adding to the
power of Congress to prevent mo
nopolies, it would deprive the States
OF the power to protect their own
people.
"a private monopoly is indefensi-
BILE and intol, rable. 1t is bad-bad
in principle and bad in practice.
at is impossible for the Republic
can party to enforce the present Grim
inal law against trust off ;ials: these
officials are intimately connectly
with the Republican party in the
present campaign.
mo party can consistently claim
to be opposed to the trusts which
will allow the mails of the United
States to be used by the trusts as an
as an agency for the EXTERN
nation of competition.
"The [licensing] plan proposed in
the Democratic platform brings the
corporation under the surveillance
OF the Government when it has
reached the danger point, and there
after subjects it to Federal scruti-
ny.
"When a big corporation sells to
the people of one section at one price
and the people of another section at
another price-the cost of transport
tation being taken into consideration
there is q reason for it, and in al
most every case the reason is to be

CHANGE TOBACCO
MARK ETS.

During the past twelve months
there has gradually developed an in
creased ddmand for the grades of to-
bacco grown in the southern coun-
ties of this state, which is as remark
able as it is gratifying. Not 50 long
ago Representative Mudd, Nhese
district includes the tobacco.grow-
ing counties, was engaged in stren-
nous effort to stir the agents of the
French government, who for many
years preceding the current year had
purchased the greater portion OF the
Maryland product to more liberal
price offering. This year there are
not only other foreign buyers than
the French bidding for the Mary
land supply, but there has develop
ed home demand also, which i'm
mensely strengthens the situation OF
the growers and which has served to
advance the price for the leaf in all
grades.
The more favorable market condi-
tions that have developed for the
Maryland growers are undoubtedly
to be attributed, in part at least to
A. raco.. l;1.fiop that hoo hoop
brought about in the tobacco pro-
ducing districts of Kentucky. A re-
port was published in the Louisville
papers on Saturday to the effect that
the American Tobacco Company has
withdrawn it's entire force of twenty
two buying agents from that state.
Louisville has been the largest leaf
tobacco market in the world, and
there is fear in that city that pre-.
cedence as tobacco mart is to pass
to Cincinnati. 1t is feared that the
American Tobacco Company, which
has for years been the almost exclu-
sive purchaser OF Kentucky tobaccos,
will build up new sources Of supply,
which will gradually eliminate Ken
lucky brands. The night raiders
crusades, which have spread terror
throughout sections of the Blue
Grass State, have been directed, it
Is understood, against the big combi-
nation OF tobacco manufacturers that
is now threatening to abandon the
state.
The marked increase in price for
the Maryland grades Of tobacco
probably will serve to lift the plant
ing industry in this state out of the
unremunerative situation into which
it seems to have fallen in recent
years. In times past "the weed"
was the most profitable crop grown
in the southern section of the state.

SUMMER FRocks FOR CHILDREN.
Fine Cross Bar Handkerchief Linen
Will Be Popular.

Among the prettiest of the sheer
little frocks for chlldren's summer
wear are those CT the fine cross bar
handkerchief linen, made with Dutch
yokes of the finest baby Irish crochet
lace. From this lace band tabs fall
over the short sleeve, which is either
made as a pun caught in by lace
strap cuff above the elbow, or as a
circular flare edged with lace and
about six inches deep at outer part.
Hand embroidery in eyelet designs
done In dainty colors. like the famous
broderie Madeira, is shown on the new
est yokes of children's linen frocks,
the yoke of the kind commonly called
Dutch, but extending in straps to cum
down outer part of sleeve, whether the
sleeve be short or long, and also In a
half length panel at middle front and
back, that is inset down the center
of the box plaits.
Children's every day hats this year,
when Of straw, are generously wide
brimmed and so shade the eye and the
tender skin that the prevailing style
of Dutch yoke displays at necks. The
straw is of lightest weight and a rib
bon crown band and silk pompons are
the simple trimming.
Sashes, hair bows. slippers and
socks match In color for the party Co.'S
tunes, the frocks themselves being OF
some filmy white null or batiste
deliberately inset with lace and worn
over q white null slip.

NeuIect of the Hair.

The greatest trouble with women,
when 1t comes to identifying" Is
that they will not stick to one par.
ticular method long enough to see II
II benefits or not, but must try every
method under the sun for two or three
nights each. This IL espec lilly so in
regard to the different methods con-
corning the care Of the hair.
Ones tresses need just as careful
and regular care as do husbands and
babies. Select one method which you
think fits your case and then stick
to Il. .
To jIsentangle the hair use only Q
coarse comb and be sure that every
tooth Is firm and smooth. SO as not to
split and break the hair. Brushing the
hair has been sadly overestimated. A
dozen or two strokes each night Is suf-
flcient to remove the days's dust and
dirt and to promote circulation.

DRINKING FOUNTAINS.
The Kind Which Are Best for the
Little Chicks.

About the best drinking fountains
are those that are especially made for
that purpose and are for sale on the
market. But a homemade fountain
will do as we'll, though 1t perhaps VIII
cost about as much in the end. The
principle used in the construction OF
the purchased fountain can be used
in making q homemade fountain.
The main principle involved Is the
one that prevents water from running
out Of a jug that is inverted in pan
except while the orifice Of the jug Is
exposed to the air. AS soon as the
water runs out enough so that the
surface of the water rises above the
orifice the water stops running. AS
the chicks drink the water in the pan
the surface Of the water Is lowered
enough to let out just little more
of the water In the jug. In this way
It is possible to fill large jug, barrel.
hogshead, or any other alright vessel
with water and have 1t supply itself
to the fowls automatically.
The principle Is one that has been
long used and is capable of extensive
elaboration. However, there are many
people on farms that have never
ayailed themselves Of this con-
venience, but day by day carry water
to the various broods Of chicks as well
as to the mature fowls. In the case
OF broods Of chicks 1t iC very con-
venient to avert water bottles In
small dishes and thus supply pure
water for several days at time.
