Silver Question Not In It.
'Cleveland, Ohio, June 27.—M arli
Hanna, tho Republican manager, does
mot think the silver question is a mat
ter of great consequence to the work
ingmen. saying: “The thousands of
"workingmen, who are employed in the
manufactories of this country, do not
-care an iota about this question of
free silver. They say they do not,
mnd it is apparent that what the in
■dustrial classes of America want is
better times, a dawn of prosperity,
mnd some assurance that they will ere
long receive better wages, or at least
% stipend equal to that which they
Were getting before the financial de
pression which followed the Demo
cratic victory of 1892. I am convinced
of the correctness of what i am say
ing, because I have talked with my
men on this subject. 1 have 5,000
ifco' 0,000 men in my employ and
I know by personal investiga
tion that the men who are work
ing Jn the shops and in the mines
■ care little or nothing about the whole
r* :financial question. They recognize
the fact that it is one of the issues of
the campaign, but that is about as far
as their interest goes. It is tlie farm
ers and the debtor classes of the coun
try who argue the free silver matter.
'‘The working men want prosperiiy
-and they realize the fact that this
much desired condition can only come
as the result of the reinedal measures
of thu protective tariff. However.the
nomination of McKinley on a gold
platform is going to stimulate indus
try. It will bring to this country
-much of the capital which was with
drawn by foreign investors and its
■effects will be felt in an equal degree
-among local capitalists. Why, 1 my- ]

BRITISH CLOTH TRADE.
^Exports of Worsted., pres. Materials and
Cottons Decrease Remarkably.
Washington, June 27. — Consul
Meeker of Bradford, England, reports
that the decrease in the cloth trade of
that place with the United Status as
-compared with last year has been
from 8247,779 in February to 81,703,602
In May. The principal items affect
ed were worsted coatings for men's j
wear, closely followed by stuffs com- !
prising linings, dress goods, etc., J
while cotton goods are credited with
a decrease of twenty-eight per cent.
The machinery expoits increased
/ fifty-two per cent All of the mills in
I the American trade have consequently
V -either been put on short time or have
( a large portion of their looms idle and
numbers of workmen have been
thrown out of employment, while
there lias also been a falling off in the
price of finished woods.
To counteract the depression the
fashionable world of England has
been appealed to to use the products
of the Bradford mills in place of the
goods now imported in quantities from
France and Germany. Samples have
been sent to the Marlborough house
to have the Princess of Wales select
materials for the trossean of one of
the young princesses, who is soon to
be married, while the queen herself
has given an order to some persons in

BLAND ON FIRST BALLOT.
fitovernor Stone's Prediction on tho Chi
cago Convention.
Kansas City, Mo., June 27.—Gov
ernor William J. Stone came to. Kan
sas City this morning. He had a long
conference with David' Ovei myer of.
Kansas in his rooms at the 'Midland,
and a few minutes later said to a
reporter: -
“Bland will be nominated on the
first ballot at Chicago. It will be a
It to I platform, and then with Bland
on it as our candidate we will have
two 16 to 1 platforms. Bland himself
is a free silver platform. It will be
one silver platform on another, just
like that,” and the governor placed
one of his hands across the other to
illustrate his point.
David Overmyer of Topeka was
asked what the Kansas delegation
would do at the Chicago convention.
“Most of our delegates,” he said,
“have a kindly feeling ’for Bland.
They are not, however, instructed,
and have not committed themselves.’
ILLINOIS FOR BLAND
John W. Feiria Believes That the Mis

Lebanon, Mo., June ”(>.—John \V.
Ferris returned this morning from the

lie said: “In regard to the outlook for
liland's nomination we think- lie is a
sure winner. We can easily count 304
votes at present As the Illinois con
vention adopted the unit rule, we are '
sure liland will receive the State’s 48 j
votes on the first ballot. While in I
Springfield I met Senator Mantle and
had a long talk with him in regard to
Teller. Mr. Mantle said, ‘We are go
ing to Chicago to urge the nomination
of Teller, believing that he is the
strongest man that could be put up.
If the Democrats refuse to nominate
him, but nominate liland, the silver
Republicans will support liland. They
have confidence in him and recogni/.e
him as sound on the silver question,
and his integrity is unquestionable.’”

A UNION WITH POPULISTS.
That la What la Urged by Senator PeCer
of Kaniai.
Topkka, Kan., Juno 25.—United
States Senator IVtier’s paper, the
Topeka Advocate, the lead ing Popu
list newspaper of Kansas, as well as
his own personal organ, to-day prints
the following editorial in double leads,
under the title, “The Situation is Per
ilous:”
in all that is great and grand the
United States hasledtho nations. Its
history is the model of the ages. It
required one war to secure our inde- ■
pendence, another to maintain our
rights at sea, and still another to
make sure that popular government is
not a failure.
“We are now confronted with still
greater and graver dangers. The rule
of the money changers has begun. A
great party, drunk with success, amid
the shouts of 10,000 madmen, has just
named as its candidate for the presi
dency of the republic a man pledged
to maiutain the present gold standard
with all the consequent evils—falling
ptices, loss of employment, debt and
ruin.
“At last, after forty years of un
paralleled career, forgetting the
glorious record .of its early achieve
ments, false to its pledges, and basely
betraying the country it saved, the
Republican party, by an 8 to 1 vote,
has declared its allegiance to a usurp
ation of men whose only interest in
the country is to rob it.
"The situation is perilous. If Dem
ocrats once undertook to destroy the
government of the United States, they
now have an opportunity to assist in
saving it. Do they see what is im
mediately in frpnt of them? Do they
comprehend its meaning? Can they
raise to the level of the occasion? Is
their party nearer and dearer to them
than their country?
“Republican success means perpet
ual domination of class in this and
the downfall of popular government.
To prevent this dreadful end of free
institutions the People’s party of the
United States was expressly formed.
We are organized and ready for the
conflict in every state and county.
Our success means the rule of the peo
ple with peace, progress and plenty;
it means the overthrow of class rule
and the perpetuity of constitutional
authority.
“Will silver Democrats unite with
us? If they come silver Republicans
will follow. Together success is in
sight. Divided we shall fritter away
our votes and make it all the more
difficult to rally in the future. Now
is the time for union and victory.
Delay is dangerous. Let us work and
vote together.’’
Another editorial under the caption,
“Taubeneck's Address Untimely," in
the same issue, says: “Chairman
Taubeneck and a number of other
gentlemen who are more or less
prominent in Populist national poli
tics, have issued an address in which
they point out certain lines which
Populists should work along. The
principal feature of the address is an
appeal for the nomination of Senator
Teller for President. This action is
extremely untimely. It is in reality
the duty of the rank and file to attend
to the matter of naming a Presiden
tial candidate. It is very apparent
from thesentiment generally expressed
that the Populist party will nomin
ate for Presideut a man who
believes in its entire plat
form. To nominate Senator Teller
at this time would compel a fight
along silver lines only. Populists are
in earnest on the silver question, but
the party believes in other reforms
which it is not yet ready to abandon,
and which it should never abandon.
Mr, Teller, as a consistent silver man
did a wise thing in leaving the Repub
lican party. He deserves commenda
tion for his devotion to principle and
liis fidelity and loyalty to his con
stituents. The Populist Rarty is not
yet ready to make lum its Presidential
candidate and Mr. Taubeneck should
have wailed until the masses had had
time to become advised as to Mr. Tel
ler's action before launching a boom
for his nomination by a party to which
he doesnot belong. ”
AMERICAN AID ASKED.
Great Britain Appeals to Secretary Olney
to Secure Harrison's Release.
Washington, June 26.—Secretary
Olney received from Sir Julian Paunce
fote, the British ambassador, to-day a
request from the British government
to use his good office with Venezuela
to secure the release from imprison
ment of Crown Surveyor Ilarrisou,
arrested by Venezuelans while en
gaged in constructing u road connect
ing the Barima and Cuyuni rivers in
disputed Guiana territory.
Sir Julian Pauncefotc spent an hour
with .Mr. Olney. The particulars of
the British request was not made pub
lic, but its feature was for friendly
intervention by the United States.
Owing to the Britisli-Venezuelan
trouble, the British have no minister
or consul in Venezuela so that it is
necessary for an outside power to act
for them in any transaction. Ger
many heretofore has acted in this
capacity for the British, but the in
terest and influence which ohe United
States lias with Venezuela Inclined
the British to seek the good offices of
this country.
It is believerl that Secretary Olney
already lias taken steps to communi
cate with the Venezuelan government
through the medium of the United
States government at Caracus.
Venezuelans find satisfaction in tlie
information that Great Britain has
appealed to Secretary Olney in the
matter as indicating that it is not con
sidered of so serious a nature as at
first anprehended. They place the
whole blame on Joseph Chamberlain’s
aggressive colonial policy. They
point to the fact that under date of
December 19, 1894, they complained to
Secretary Gresham of the proposed
road upon which Surveyor Harrison
was employed, and called attention to
the fact that as the route lay in Vene
zuelan territory a conflict would be
unavoidable! This appeal was ef
fective for the time being and the
road was abandoned until last year.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATS.
Declare for the Gold Htandaid Until
International Agreement Is Effected.
Saratoga, N. Y., June 25.—Before
the time for the assembling’ of the
Democratic convention it was given
out that Senator Hill would be the
permanent chairman. The conven
tion was called to order by Chairman
Hinckley, who introduced Mayor John
Boyd Thaicher of Albany as tempor
ary chairman. In the course of his
speech, - on assuming the chair, he
said: “Facing Chicago, we confess
that the situation is not without peril.
Circumstances, some of which, per
naps, might nave been controlled
—have created what we believe to
be an erroneous financial faith, a
faith which has spread alarmingly in
the West and South and which
has found adherents even in the East
and North. It is a faith which is not
to be eradicated with the sword, but
with the pen and tongue. With many
it is a panacea for commercial dis
orders. Men hold these false views
through a misconception of economic
truths and through not understanding
economic laws of the times and season
of their application. Not everything
which is signed and sealed is valid.
The stamp of the government on a
piece of silver can never make it
worth more than the world is willing
to give for it. I' we are is, accomplish
our mission at Chicago we must go
there to persuade erring brothers and
not to quarrel with enemies. Tha
people who hold those etrange views
are honest, but mistaken. We must
make them see that we are as honest
as they are and that our views are
right. At this late day, the task
seems gigantic, but it is not hopeless.
If ever there should be a campaign of
education it is now.”
During the call of the roll of dele
gates there were enthusiastic and pro
tracted cheers when the name of Will
iam C. Whitney was reached and a
demonstration of almost equal fervor
greeted the name of David B. Hill a
few minutes later.
The convention will certainly de
clare that the present gold standard
in the country should be 1 reserved
until such time as there could be ob
tained an international agreement for
bimetallism. At the same time the
leaders of the party will postpone the
selection of presidential electors until
the fall convention of the party. The
delegates at large to be selected are
Boswell P. Flower, David B. Mill, Ed
ward Murphy and Frederick E. Cou
dert. _

flint* a* to the Car* of Dire Stock and
Poultry.
[RCULAR B of the
Department of Ag
riculture says: Pri
>r to 1894, the na
:ure of this disease
was unknown. In
the fall of 1893,
Prof. Samuel Cush
man, of the Rhode
Island State Exper
iment Station, sent
of the diseased organs of turkeys which
had died of “black-head” to this lab
oratory, where they were carefully ex
amined by Dr. Theobald Smith. In the
summer of 1894, Dr. Smith made a care
ful study of this disease at the Rhode
Island Experiment Station. He found
that It was caused by one of the pro
tozoa (Amoeba meleagridls Smith) and
he published a full description of the
disease which, in accordance with the
lesions, he Designated Infectious ente
rohepatitls. This report shows that the
disease usually attacks the young tur
keys. The walls of one or both caeca
become thickened, and the liver is mot
tled with areas of varying sise, having
a brownish, yellowish, or perhaps
greenish color. These peculiarly col
ored areas in the liver are of diagnostic
^alue, as they have not been found in
other caecal or intestinal troubles. The
microscopic examination of the affected
parts showed the presence of large
numbers of the protozoa in the cells
and Intercellular tissue. The life his
tory of this parasite and the way by
which the turkeys become Infected with
it were not determined, but from the
facts elicited, Dr. Smith thought it
highly probable that the micro-organ
ism is transmitted from turkey to
turkey without passing through an in
termediate host. The nature of the
disease indicates that inquiries into
the means by which it is transmitted,
with the object of determining methods
tor its prevention, promise more speedy
and practical results than investiga
tions into its medicinal treatment. Fur
thermore, it is of much importance that
its' spread into non-lnfected localities
should be checked.
Th« Beat Floor.
The best and most satisfactory floor
for a hen house is dry, clean dirt upon
an earth floor. The earth in the house
should be filled from six Inches to one
foot above the ground surrounding the
house outside; this will prevent it from
becoming damp and disagreeable to the
occupants. Under the roosts should be
thrown a shovel full or more of loose,
dry dirt every morning, and the drop
pings removed at least once a week and
tbe floor swept or scraped. A scratch
ing space should be divided \>ff by set
ting up boards a foot high, making a
pen in which should be kept loose straw
or chaff to the depth of four or six
Inches and all loose grain fed fowls
thrown in this pen. This will keep
the henB busy and the busy hen lays
eggs. This should not be allowed to
become foul, but should be renewed oc
casionally. A liberal supply of air
slaked lime scattered oves the floor will
do much toward keeping the house in
a good wholesome condition.—Inter
state Poultryman.
' Ground Bone.
Probably no people in the world
waste so much as the Americans, simp
ly because no people have so much that
can be wasted. It seems a great loss
when we consider the vast quantities
of bone going to waste every day.
This can be easily ground with small
outlay for a bone grinder or cutter.
The elements that are found in green
bone are those of great value to the
hen. She uses a part to make bone and
a part to make egg shells and some of
it even goes to make muscle; for lime
is not the only thing found in the bone
in its green state. Bones can be ob
tained from the butcher at a very low
price, and in country places can doubt
less be had for the asking. We as^t peo
ple should save the vast amount of
valuable food matter going to waste in
the form mentioned.
Cotton-Seed Moil nnd Hulls.
A bulletin of the North Carolina ex
periment station giveB the following
directions for the feeding of cotton-seed
meal and hulls:
1. For Maintenance.—Where it is de
sirable to feed an animal just sufficient
to maintain it without loss, the follow
ing directions may be followed: Hulls
from rather green seed may be ted
alone, the particles of seed kernels re
maining accidentally with the hulls be
ing counted on for maintenance, or .per
haps, even for slow fattening. Depend
ence, of course, is placed on the amount
of kernels left in the hulls. With well
cleaned hulls, however, some cotton
seed meal must be used, depending
somewhat on the animal fed. With a
cow weighing 950 pounds, 1 ptyind of
meal to every 7 pounds of hulls has
been shown to maintain the weight and
produce about 20 pounds of milk per
day. Probably 8 or 10 pounds of hulls
to 1 pound of meal when fed in quan
tity (as much as can be eaten clean)
will support life and maintain the
weight of neat stock.
2. For Milk.—For the greatest flow of
milk we consider it a doubtful practice
to feed exclusively on hulls and meal,
though both may be prominent articles
in the ration. If cotton-seed meal is
ted in quantities sufficient to support
a cow giving a large flow of milk it
may occasion danger to her health, as
it' certainly does where fed to pigs and
calves in like manner. When a cow
has passed about four or five months
of gestation, and the flow of milk has
greatljr diminished, she may be put on
a ration of hulls and meal, which may
be vailed from 4 to 1 to as much as
7 or 8 to 1 of hulls to meal until she has
dried off. This will support the cow
well. It would be well all this time,
however, to be feeding once per day
some hay, stover, straw, or let her
graze part of each day.
For two or three weeks before calving
the cow’s ration should be changed by
substituting a succulent diet of bran for
the cotton-seed meal. A week before
calving, if not already affected by the
succulent diet, the cow should be thor
oughly purged with Glauber's or Ep
som salts. In one pound dose. Care
should be exercised to see that the
bowels remain loose; if not, repeat the
dose at intervals, as needeq, until the
cow has come to her full yield of milk
after calving.
3. For Other Stock.—To other than
ruminating animals, the use of either
cotton-seed hulls or meal is yet of
doubtful expedience. Hulls are consid
ered too bulky for horses, but cotton
seed meal may often be fed In small
quantities to good advantage with the
usual wide rations. Its action, how
ever, on the nervous system is yet un
tried, bo far as we are informed, and it
would only be safe as a small part of a
ration to be used, much as linseed meal
or flaxseed is sometimes used. This
meal, in Bmall quantities is not so laxa
tive as linseed meal.
RxpArltnos Necessary.
Having decided to establish a cheese
factory, select a man to take charge of
it and send him to some Institution of
the kind that is in successful opera
tion, and keep him there for at least
six months, or until he learns the busi
ness thoroughly, if his services are not
needed as an assistant; better pay lib
erally for the privilege of staying tiiere
and learning the business: It will be
found in the long run that the money
spent in this way is the best Invest
ment of the whole institution. A man
to operate a cheese factory should be
sufficiently posted so that he can tell
at a glance, when he enters the cheese
room, whether his cheese maker 1{)
making good merchantable cheese, or
whether he Is making something that
Is destined to be used as flsh-balt, or
as a tramp exterminator in the free
lunch saloon. We think this class of
cheese is what gives the Chicago people
their opinion of Missouri as a dairy
state.—O. C. Beach.
Honan In Kanin.
According to the Gazette of St. Pe
tersburg, Russia possesses 30,000,000
horses, or half the total number sup
posed by one authority to be kept In
the world. About 86 per cent belong
to the (peasants, and there are grave
fears of the rapid decrease of these ani
mals unless something is done to ar
rest the decline that has Bet in. The
depression In agriculture has impover
ished the peasants, and their horses are
growing fewer as well as poorer In
quality. At present, it Is estimated, 30
per cent of the peasants who cultivate
land are without horses, and the gov
ernment are urged to devote more at
tention to the encouragement of cart
horse breeding, and less to that of the
breeding of racers and other light
horses.
Grocery Butter.
Every man takes good, sweet butter
to market. (He thinks he does.) He
knows he does, because his groceryman
tells him so, and he puts It In the box
with all of the good butter, and his wife
made it; how could It be otherwise. But
he has to take a low price for it, there
was so much of the same quality on the
market, so they do not try to make it so
good the next week, for It did not pay
to work so hard for so little money.
If grocerymen could be a little more
particular In testing the butter they
buy, and take nothing but good, poor
butter would be very scarce, as there
would be no place for it. But JuBt as
long as there is a place where It can be
sold at all, it will be made, and lots of
It, too. •
Games.—The game fowl is probably
the oldest breed known to the world.
They were bred and fought three thou
sand years ago, and will be bred and
fought three thousand years after Aate.
We allude ito the true game, not the
stilted variety, bred for supposed ele
gance of form and station. There 1b
no better fowl for the farmer than well
bred and steel tested games. They are
generous layers and the finest table
fowls ever invented. The latter fact is
never disputed and never doubted. Af
ter full feathering they arc the hardiest
of all, and will return home to roost
with promptness. Not only will the
males fight anything that wears feath
ers or hair, but the females will pro
tect their young to the last feather and
the last gasp. They are the best of all
mothers—good sitters and good pro
viders.—Ex.
Ducks In the South.—The south Is
the land tor ducks. In Texas, Louis
ana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama,
Tennessee and several other southern
states, there are hundreds of lakes,
rivers, creeks and bayous' that are na
tural harbors for ducks In many of
the states named the wild ducks gather
and forage and In the late fall and win
ter season, affording fine sport for the
huntsman. In the more thickly set
tled and cultivated sections of the south
the streams and lakes still exist, but
the wild ducks have forsaken them be
cause of the too frequent appearance
of man and the fixtures and appliances
of modern life. It is the duty, then, of
the home-builder to restock the water
ways with ducks.—Southern Farm.
Fences.—This generation of farmers
is not spending as much for fences as
did our elders. The stock laws have
come into general favor. Since stock
is kept at home cattle improve, scrubs
diminish, cows give more milk, calVes
thrive better, hogs are of better breeds;
but, best of all, the old feuds over fences
are a thing of the past.

The flleekwater State.
Nebraska has been termedAhe Black
water State. The explanation of this *
poetical nickname is found in the fact
that the water of the principal streams |
is'as dark as that of the rivers flowing
from the bogs of Ireland. The soil of
Nebraska is very rich and loamy, and
it is said there are peat beds in the
state, the statement being apparently
confirmed by the color of the water,
which is caused by the presence of or
ganic matter.
An empty head and a rattling tongue go
well together.
