the general dissatisfaction has arisen
from the fact that party promises
made were broken to the people bv
party performances, ho knows that
soon as the election was over and suc
cessful candidates installed they be
came the servitors of the party and
the advocates of a narrow and non
progressive policy within which alone
there seemed to be an assurance of
selfish safety and partisan approval.
GREAT TRUTHS NOTABLY I.ACK1NO.
“During all this period we have
lacked a great constructive adminis
tration. No new social truth has
been put forward in an effective way.
While in all the departments of physi
cal life there have been developments
and achievements of ease and comfort
to the favored of mankind, in the still
greater and more important domain
of social reform, we have stood still
or retrogressed. It is not that the
people have not felt the stirrings of
determination, that this inaction has
endured, but because of the rule of
the party which has largely controlled
men in ana out of office. It has be
cotrie a source of reproach to any man
that he should dare to renounce al
legiance to organization. Men have
been expected to submit their views
to the dictation of conventions, al
though it is common knowledge that
conventions have been swayed to
views and declarations not the most
approved by the mass of the people
nor progressive for their welfare.
“If the voices which have sounded
to us from every state in this Union
are an indication of the real feeling,
this year is the appointed time for the
people to assert themselves, through
such mediums as may give best prom
ise of the achievement of justice. But
whether we are mistaken or not con
cerning the general sentiment in the
United States, we have not mistaken
our own duty in withdrawing from
the Republican convention, feeling
that it is better to be right and with
the minority in apparent defeat than
to be wrong with the majority in ap
parent triumph.
MONETARY REFORM THE GREATEST.
“We hold that in the great work ot
social evolution in this country mon
etary reform stands as the first requis
ite. No policy, however promising of
good results, can take its place. Con
tinuation during the next four years
upon tiio present financial system will
bring down upon the American peo
ple that cloud of impending evil, to
aveit which should be the first thought
of statesmen and the 'first prayer of
patriots. Our very institutions are
at stake. To-day, with a rapidly in
creasing population, with widely
swelling demands, the basis of our
money is relatively contracting and
the people aro passing into a servi
tude all the more dangerous becauso
it is not physically apparent. The
nation itself, as to other nations,
is losing the sturdy courage which
could make it defiant in the faco of in
justice and internal wrong, from the
farmer and the tradesman to the gov
ernment there is apparent the same
shrinkage from giving offense, lest the
vengeance of some offended financial
power should descend The business
man submits some portion of his judg
ment and his will, and the nation sub
mits some portion of its international
right, lest some mighty foreign cred
itor shall make destructive demands.
Where will all this end if the people
shall decline to assert themselves?
Where will it end if the older parties
in their determination to maintain
themselves in power for power’s sake
alone shall refuse to recognize the
right and the hope of humanity.
CREDITOR NATIONS ATTACKED.
“This country cannot much longer
exist freo and independent against all
the rest of the world, nor can its peo
ple much longer be free in the noblest
sense of the term if the United States,
a debtor nation, shall follow a policy
dictated by creditor nations. YVe pro
duce all of the necessaries of life.
Other nations consume our products.
In the race for existence it is a con
stant struggle between producer and
consumer. Our , present system of
money deliberately submits to the de
sire and the profit of creditor nations,
leaving us in the mass and as individ
uals, a prey to the money-gathering
and the deadly cheapening of the
old war 111. As the debt to creditors
abroad increases on the masses of the
nation, the price of human production
on the farm and in the workshop is
decreased with appalling rapidity,
exacting more and more from our citi
zens to meet the given demand and
holding over their heads a threat of
the day when confiscation to meet
their obligations will leave them bare
and defenseless.
■•lneouiy rcraeay is tostop railing'
prices, the deadliest curse of nationaL
life. Prices will never cease falling
under the single gold stand.nil. llie
restoration of bimetallism by this
country will double the basis of our
money system. In time it will double
the stock of primary money of the
world—will stop falling prices and
will steadily elevate them until they
will regain their normal relation to
the volume of debts and credits in
the world. Bimetallism will help to
bring about the great hope of every
social reformer, every believer in the
advancement of the race who realizes
that the instability of prices has been
his deadly foe of our toilers and the
servant of the foreign interest gath
erer. Bimetallism will help to bring
about the time when a certain ex
penditure of human toil will procure
a certain financial result.
UNION OP AM. MRS INVITED.
Who among the great masses of our
people in the United States but feels
that his lot would be better, his aspir
tion take new wings if he could know
in the performance of his labor what
would be the price of his product? Is
not this purpose worth the attention
of the people as individuals, and
worth the attention of political con
ventions yet to be held in this year
t89ti? Is not this so great an end that
all who believe in the possibility of'at
taining it by the means proposed can
yield something of their partisanship
both in conventions and at the polls?
It is in the hope that the masses and
the remaining conventions will have
the courage and the generosity to
unite for this purpose that we have
dared to offer our views to the people
of the United States, and because in
the past there has lacked a rallying
paint for the masses who hold as we
do to this belief, we venture to act,
trusting that it will be received in |he
A ■:
same spirit of conciliation, concession
and hope with which we put it forth.
“We have endeavored in a plain
way to set the matter before the eyes
of our fellow citizens. We invoke
the union of all men and all parties
who believe that the time has come
for the triumph of justice. It is an
hour when the people may speak for
themselves as individuals and through
conventions yet to be held. It is the
P1tfht of every citizen to indicate his
preference.
SENATOR TELLER’S NAME PRESENTED.
“W ith this in view, wo offer to the
forthcoming* conventions and to the
people the name of a man for the
presidency of the United States whoso
life in public and in private repre
sents those distinguished virtues
which adorned the clays and the deeds
of the earlier time of this republic, a
return to which virtues is requisite
for the prosperity and contentment
of the people and the perpetu
ity and commanding* example of
free institutions. That name is
Henry M. Teller, a man of the people
and for the people, lie is of no sec
tion. His experience and service, hla
devotion to the common justice and
the common cause of his fellow citi
zens has been as wide as the country.
Wo believe that the people of the
United States have him in their hearts
as he has had their interests in his
purpose through all the work of an
exulted life.
“It is not merely as the exponent of
monetary reform that we present
this man to the people. It is true that
he has waged a mighty war for the
restorrtion of the money of the con
stitution, and his name has been iden
tified as that of no othor living man
with this great cause. Hut had his ser
vices been less demanded and less no
ticed in this direction, the people would
still have recognized in him for other
labors a statesman of the purest type.
His only poverty has been that of
purse. In all things else—in the gen
erosities of man to man, in kindliness
of deeds for his fellows and in the
study and the doings of a mighty
career, he has been one of the most
opulent American citizens of any age.
APPLAUDED IN COLORADO
All I’arts of tbs State Celebrate the Dolt
—Laudations for Teller.
Denver, Colo., June !;0.—The news
of the action of Senator Teller and
\ the Colorado and Idaho delegations in
withdrawing from the national Re
publican convention has been re
ceived throughout the State with the
greatest enthusiasm. In Denvcr there
will be a demonstration when Senator
Teller returns, which will . be by
Thursday, and Senator Cannon of
Utah will De the feature of another
demonstration when he passes
through.
The mining camps are especially
jubilant. At Aspen last night the
hills were reverberating with the
boom of improvised cannon and at
Cripple Creek the streets were
thronged by enthusiastic crowds all
night. At Pueblo the company of the
national guard fired a salute of forty
five guns when the news of the bolt
was received, and in Northern and
Southern Colorado towns the enthus
iasm was unconlined.
A' large and enthusiastio meeting
was held at the chamber of commerce
last night by people of all classes,
without regard to party, to arrange
! for a public reception to Senator
j Teller upon his return.
I DETROIT TRIBUNE BOLTS
Repudiates tbs Platform as “Damnably
Unpatriotic and Un-Republican."
Detroit, Mich., June 20.—The
Tribune, one of the oldest daily news
papers in the West, and the leading
Republican paper of Michigan since
the birth of the party, unequivocally
repudiates the action of the Repub
lican national convention in declaring
absolutely for the gold standard as
against bimetallism. It says that
wnile the party’s candidate is all right,
“the platform on the only important
| issue before the country is damnably
I unpatriotic and un-Republican. No
i one’s Republicanism can be impugned
if he continues to stand squarely on
the national and state platforms of
the past, and if he repudiates utterly
the false and un-American fulmina
j tion of St. Louis conspiracy,” and
advises active campaigning against,
"gold monometallism congressional
candidates.”
PETTIGREW’S SURPRISE.
The South Dakota Senator'* Disaffection
Caused a Sensation.
St. Louis, Mo., June 20.—The fact
that Senator Pettigrew of South
Dakota joined the silver Republicans
in their holt of the convention proved
the surprise of the day. lie said alter
leaving the hall that ho hud formed
the determination to join this move
ment several weeks ago, and as soon
as it becamo apparent that a gold
standard plank would be ndopted.
lie, however, kept his intentions so
well to himself that not even his fel
low-delegates from South Dakota
were a-.vare of them and looked as
much surprised as did others when
the Senator’s name as one of the com
mittee who signed the protest read in
the convention was announced.
MAKING READY TO FIGHT.
Ex-Secretary Whitney Appeal* to Michael
Doran Not to Go Abroad.
Washington, June 20. — Michael
Doran, Minnesota's member of the
Democratic national committee, who
is here, received the following tele
gram from ex-Secrctary Whitney to
day: “When will you be in New
York? I want to ree you. You must
not desert at this time.”
The telegram had reference to Do
ran’s intention to sail for Europe in a
few days for the benefit of his health,
lie says that while he will not decide
certainly until after he meets Mr.
Whitney, it is likely that he will post
pone liis foreign trip and attend the
Chicago convention in an effort to
stem the free silver tide.

DVICES from New
•York cheese locali
ties Indicate a some
what discouraging
outlook for a good
opening of the
cheese market. The
cows are coming
fresh and something
must be done with
the milk, yet the
demand for cheese
Is very light. Matters don’t look as they
nsed to when we were sending ear
loads of cheese to England every day,
and It seemed as If they couldn’t get
enough of It. Wo have killed the goose
that laid the golden egg. Filled cheese
to kill off the foreign demand and skim
cheese to kill oft home consumption,
and here we are with our cows, cheese
factories, and farms on our hands anil
no market. It Is to be hoped that the
cheese-makers, factory proprietors and
particularly the patrons will build up
some solid public opinion on this ques
tion of making poor cheese. Stop It at
once. Nothing has driven cheese fac
tories out of the business more than the
making of skim cheese. Honest full
cream cheese factories could not hold
their own in profit with skim cheese
factories, so they turned Into cream
eries. We have killed our foreign trade
and are acting like stupid dolts about
our only and last resort, the home
trade. There Is not a factory in the
land but what ought to refuse to let a
young, tasteless, indigestlblo cheese go
out of its doors. Every factory should
face this question of curing cheese in
a decent, eatable shape. Don’t let the
factories sell the Immature cheeBe to
still more and more discourage the con
sumption of cheese. No cheese has any
business to go onto the grocery counter
less than GO to 90 days old. By that
time it tastes somewhat cheesy, and If
it is a good article it provokes the de
sire for more. The only forces that can
stop this make of bad cheese and sale
of immature cheese are the factories
themselves. Let each factory do the
sensible thing for Itself and all will
soon have good, old-fashioned cheese,
and the people will cat. double the quan
tity of it.—Hoard’s Dairyman.
Milk As n Foo<l.
Milk is a substitute that is complex
in its composition, says Prof. Robertson
of Toronto. All of the ingredients, ex
cept the fat, are in solution; the fat Is
in suspension, and when the milk
stands for any length of time these
little globules of fat rise to the surface
and form what is known as cream.
A drop of milk contains 5,000,000 glob
ules of fat. Food, to be healthy, and
nutritious, must have the correct pro
portions of flesh forming and heat-pro
ducing material. Good nature, whole
someness, self mastery, depend on the
quality of food w., eat. Raise a boy on
bread and milk rather than on potatoes
and bacon. Bread and milk is cheaper
and much better fi>*)d. It is a mistaken
idea that a man who works hard must
eat rich food. Three-quarters of a
pound of beef, costing 10 cents, one
quart of milk, costing 5 cents, and five
ounces of wheat, costing three-quarters
of a cent, are equal in nourishing ma
terial. One pound of cheese is equal to
two and a half pounds of beef. There is
no better diet to work hard on than
cheese and potatoes, and there is no
diet more digestible. Wheat bread Is
not a well-balanced food, but bread well
buttered is very nutritious. Skim milk
and oatmeal are valuable foods.
Black Langfthans.
In your issue of April 15 Charley
Ramsey of Hardin County, Ohio, asks
If any of the readers of the Review can
tell him anything about the BlackLang
shans. Mr. Ramsey in the latter part
of his request for information states
that he would like to know what the
writers on poultry subjects think of
them. As we do not pretend to be a
writer on poultry subjects perhaps any
thing we might say would have no in
fluence with the gentleman. However,
as we have been a breeder of this splen
did fowl for a number of years we will
give our opinion and let it go for what
it is worth. The Langshan is a dis
tinct breed (no make up), coming origi
nally from Chinese Tartary. The plum
age should be black, not a dull black,
but glistening black, with reflections of
green. The legs and bottom of the feet
should show a pink color—no yellow.
The legs should be feathered, but not
so heavily as the cochins. Weight
should be, cocks, 8 to 9% lbs.; hens, 7
to 8%. In disposition they are very
gentle, easily confined, and so far as
my experience has gone, the best of all
winter layers. There are two distinct
types. The low, heavily-bodied and the
tall, majestic appearing, which one can
not see without saying, “Blood will
tell.” As sitters and mothers the hens
are first-class. As a table fowl I don’t
think they are excelled by any other
breed. In saying this I know the con
sensus of opinion is against me. Still
we deny that the color of the skin has
anything to do with the eating qualities
of a bird.
W. A. Cbatterton.
Profit In Ughoroa.
I have been keeping poultry for the
last fourteen years, both hens and tur
keys. I have quite a number of breeds,
I but think there is more profit in the
I Leghorn breeeds than in any others.
; My fowls have a warm house in the win
| ter and free range in the yard all day.
II feed plenty of corn in winter, and
I when the ground is bare I throw out
| some oats and wheat as a change. We
always sell at home and never run risk
ot shipping. We do not get na many
eggs In winter as In summer, but get
quite a per cent of them during the
winter. We seldom lose fowls from lice
or disease, but lose more from hawks
than In any other way. We keep a
few of the laiije breeds for the purpose
of hatching. We generally let them
run at lnrge after a few days ns we
think they do better. I have never
tried doctoring hens but have turkeys.
I tried several remedies for dysentery,
but nothing did any good till I tried
camphor. It cured them. I think there
Is no fowl I ever hntidled that will pro
duce more eggs than the Leghorn. They
also mature very quickly. For a heavy
fowl the Plymouth Rock matures early.
I do not make poultry raising my sole
occupation. I raise what I can in the
poultry line and attend to my other
business. I raise eighty to one hun
dred chickens In a year and thirty-five
turkeys, and besides I sell as many
eggs as my neighbors do.

It coats at least one-third more to
produce a pound of pork after the flrnt
year than before. If a pig does not pny
a profit by the time It Is ten months old
It will hardly do so after It passes that
age. oYung pork is not only the beet
and cheapest, but brings the highest
price in the market. With a majority
of our farmers the hog pays the grocer,
the physician, the taxes, the interest,
clothes the family and practically sup
plies the table with meat. With all
young stock it is an important item to
secure a good growth from the stnrt.
It is easier and more economical to
keep an animal growing than to allow
it to become stunted and then attempt
to feed up Into a good condition. It
is a Bure way to have diseases among
the hogs when they must rely upon slop
as drinking water. They require pure
water the same as do other animals,
and when deprived of it will not thrive,
—West Lake Herald.
WynmlottcMi mxl Keel Cap*.
We have been keeping poultry for
eight years. During that time we have
had the Wyandottes, Plymouth Rock,
Urown Leghorns, Lnngshans and Black
Spanish. For general purposes the
Wyandottes are best, for laying, the
Red Caps. I feed principally corn,
wheat and oats. In disposing of our
eggs we have always sold to a peddler
who pays from 8 to 26 cents per dozen.
We obtain most of our eggs during the
winter. We have lost a good many
birds from diseases and some from
prowling animals. When we flrst began
raising broods we had good success but
the longer we keep in the business the
poorer success we have. We have alsc
tried doctoring fowls and have used
from twenty to thirty remedies, but
none Of them proved of any value.

White I.eKhnri» end riymontli Rocha.
I have bred the Plymouth Hocks,
White Leghorns, Black Spanish,
Brahma and Wyandottes, but I like the
White Leghorns and Plymouth Rocks
best. For winter quarters I have »
good house, well-boarded, with tarred
paper over that and over that siding
and then three coats of paint. In the
summer they pick up nearly their own
living, as they have the range of the
whole farm. In the winter they get
corn, oats, wheat and cooked veg
etables. We sell our eggs to parties
having a cold storage house in Owaton
na. In this cold climate we do not get
many eggs in winter. For the farm I
like Plymouth Rocks best as they look
after themselves mostly. As for lay
ing, White Leghorns have done th«
best for me. W. O. Buffum.
Dairy Form.—There seems to be an
inclination to scoff at what is called
dairy form. But all experience goes
to show that dairy form is a sure in
dex of the character of a milk cow.
There are two points that stand out
prominently and that should not bs
lost sight of in selecting a dairy cow.
The flrst of these is a big paunch; the
second is a concave thigh. The latter
denotes lack of ability to lay on flesh.
The former tells us that the cow is a
great consumer. Then the rest is plain;
is she eats a great deal and does not
turn it into flesh and fat, she must
needs turn it into milk. We doubt If
this rule ever fails.
Pekin Ducks.—There are the Peklns,
a grand breed, pure white, with a
plumage that Is thick and heavy, but
fine in texture, a breed of ducks that is
older than the history of civilization,
that comes to us from over-populated
China, where, doubtless, they are raised
among the flags and lilies that bedeck
the floating homes of the river-dwellers,
people that are born, live and die on
the water, with only a brief, occasional
experience on dry land; for the river
and inland lakes of China, we are told,
are populated as well as the land, and
whole villages are made up of floating
population that extend for miles on the
water.—Ex. _
Keeping Butter.—If you would keep
butter for use at a time when you are
not making any, pack it solidly down In
stone jars, put a cloth on top and one
third inch of salt, keep an inch depth
of water over all, and the cover on the

0MAU> KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, NASS. .
Has discovered in one of our common ^
pasture weeds a remedy that cures every
kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula
down to a common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
(both thunder humor). He has now in his
possession over two hundred certificates
of its value, all within twenty miles of
Boston. Send postal card for book.
A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and a perfect cure is war
ranted when the right quantity is taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them: the same with the Liver

week after taking it. Read the label.
If (lie stomach is foul or bilious it will
cause squeamish feelings at first.
No change of diet ever necessary. Eat
the best you can get, and enough of It
