Last year there were imported into the United States over 1,000.000.000 grains of quinine, costing over $1,500, 000. The corner stone for the first Protes tant church, to be built in Cuba was laid in Matanzas on a recent Sunday. It is to be a Methodist church. Rosewood and Mahogany are so plentiful in Mexico that some of the topper mines there are timbered with rosewood, while mahogany is used a« fuel for the engines.

The largest balloon ever constructed, capable of lifting over six tons, will ascend from Berlin shortly to make meteorological observations.

Emile Zola expresses bis deep sym pathy with Maitre Labori. who has been so boycotted because of his part in the Dreyfus case, and in a recent interview urged that every possible support and aid be given to the brave lawyer.

There was recently discovered near the Ocklockonnee river, Florida, what is believed by experts to be the most wonderfully pure vein of fuller's earth ever discovered. This vein is said to yield Immense quantities of this pe culiar earth, which stands the 100 test —that is to say, that it is absolutely pure. Nearly all the mines of this kind of earth contain, besides the val uable commodity, rock, flint, gravel, sand, etc., but this deposit is entirely free of such substances. Poverty is an incentive and a disci pline. If most of us were rich and had nothing to work for the world would be lazy and degenerate, softened with luxury, spoiled by lack of healthful op position. Any condition that deprives us of hope is a condition of living death; but a poverty that makes us industrious, resolute, hardens our bod ies and sharpens our wits is far from unfortunate, for it contains within It self the elements of cure, and prime among its happy attributes Is that heaven-sent faculty of living in a fu ture that has no offset to its perfect ness—the faculty of hope. fuses of nervous and muscular af fections. according to the Berlin cor respondent of the Lancet, have been observed in pianists, especially in young players.

PERTINENT QUESTIONS DODGED By Bryan Which Are Propounded to Illta by a Prominent Peuiiiyleunla Democrat — -Heating Around the flush to have Ills Political Hacou. OMAHA. Neb., Oct. 1.—If the fusion lets bad started in their campaign by destroying the bark tiles of tne news papers of their party, they niignt have robbed the republicans of some vain- * able campaign literature. But they didn't, and must suffer the conse quences. The Omaha World-Herald Is the rec- , ognlzed organ ut fusion, not alone 1 a Nebraska, but in ihe west. The fol lowing figures taken from the issue j of the World-Herald of July 10, 1800, I and July 10, l'JOO, not only serve to prove a most significant distinguish- i ment between the prices this year and those of four years ago. but they show conclusively that prices have advanced , and that the people are much more I prosperous now than then. Here are the figures: July 10, July 10, 1896. 1900. Cows.$3.00 $4.55 Heifers . 3-60 4.25 Calves . 5.00 6.00 Bulls . 2.90 4.00 Stags . 2.90 4.25 Stocks and Feeders.... 3.55 4.15 Hogs . 3.15 6.20 Veal, per lb.00V6 .10 Green Hides (No. 1),. .04 .06 Wheat, (Neb. & I)ak ). .53 .75 Wheat, car load (new).. .50 .71 Rve .30 .54 Flax seed.74 1.40 Flour, (best patent).. 1.85 2.25 Corn.18 .36 Oats .15 .24 No. 2 Red Wheat.56\<2 .82 No. 2 Cash Corn.26*^ 44V* j No. 2 White Oats.18 .27 There are 19 artic les enumerated j above—every one grown on the farm— j and the aggregate per cent of increase in price approximates 1,093. Divide ♦his by 19, the number of articles, and , you will find that the average in- j crease In the price of each article is approximately 57!£ ppr cent. This Isn't campaign oratory. .1 isn't a mass of confusing figures: it is simply a compilation showing t'ue prices the farmers of Nebraska re ceived for their products under a democratic and republican administra tion respectively, as shown by market quotations published in the Omaha World-Herald. An increase of 57!£ per cent. In the commercial value of a c rop means a great deal to each individual farmer in Nebraska. It means a great deal to the state of Nebraska aud all its people, for, when the farmers are prosperous, all lines of industry are correspondingly stimulated. It means that the same amount of farm prod ucts will net the farmer more than double the amount this year as com pared with 1896. This is exactly the difference be tween republicanism and democracy as applied to the farmer and the farming Industry, for today the re publicans are in power and in 1896 the democrats were in power. In the light of such facts it is difti lult to believe that the democratic ticket will receive any material sup port from the farmers of Nebraska. Since it is proven by these figures that democratic policies enacted into law cause a decline in the prise ot farm products, and that republican policies' when enacted Into law, causa an Increase in the price of farm prod ucts, what more is necessary to con vince the farmer that it Is to bis in terest to vote for and uphold the re publican ticket and party? "Well,” but Bryan says, “there 13 danger of Imperialism.” Suppose he does, does that make it co? He said iu 1896, in his speech a; Baltimore, that If McKinley was elected It would mean four more years of hard times. The above figures from his own party organ disprove that assertion, say nothing of the abundance of evi dence of prosperity manifest every* wheie. And Bryan says. "There is danger of militarism.” Suppose he does, does that make it so? He said in 1S9S mat if McKin ley was elected the wages of labor and the prices of farm products would fall Just as sure as the stone that a thrown tip. Again the figures from his own party organ disprove his assertions say nothing of the purchase of new homes, the cancellation of farm mort gager, the increase in bank deposits, especially in the smaller towns and villages, the decrease in interest rates and the music of a million hamtue.s in the various factories ‘ies.

He had enough figures and exclamation points to build a rail fence arouRd Nebraska, lie hasn't got ■ them today. This time the figures are all against him. Read the above fig ures from his Omaha oigan and y«u will see why he ia letting figures alone in this campaign. In 1896 Bryan said the hard times were "caused by a scarcity of money I and that the only source of relief was in the free coinage of silver.” He#Vas wrong again. The people discovered the "source of relief"—Wil liam McKinley and the republican party. They defeated silver, elected McKinley and unexampled prosperity followed. DEMOCRACY AND TRUSTS. The real position of the democrats on the trusts question was shown in congress last June, when a proposed constitutional amendment Intended to prevent, regulate and destroy trust* was defeated by democratic votes. The amendment was as follows: •’Congress shall have power to de fine, regulate, prohibit or dissolv; trusts, monopolies or combinations, whether existing in the form of a cor poral ion or otherwise. The several states may continue to exercise such power in any manner not in conflict wnh the laws of the United States.’’ This amendment. If incorporated into the constitution, would no doubt accomplish the purpose for which P was intended. Hut it was defeated, and by democratic votes. When it came to a vote, requiring as it did, a two-thirds majority, 154 voted for it and 13- against it. Of the 154 who voted for It 160 were repub licans. Of the 132 who voted against It 130 were democrats. This very clearly defines the att.1 tilde of both parties on tne trust ques tion. Political parties, as well as in dividuals:, should be measured, not by their words, but by their deeds. Thru rule is founded on apostolic doctrine and it is a pretty safe one to follow. Viewed In this light the Hryanltes. instead of being opposed to trusts, as they loudly ptociaun, appear to be in sympathy with them. 'trusts or combinations intended t? restrict legitimate competition, or ganized primarily for the purpose >» arbitrarily fixing and regulating prices, are necessarily injurious to the people and should be stamped out. Hut who is going to do the stamping out? Are you going to look to a paruy that, when it had an opportunity to provide a remedy, went ovpr hag and baggage to the enemy—the democratic party? Are you going to look to a party that lined up its votes in con gress in solid phalanx and defeated a proposed constitutional amendment intended to crush this evil? Are you going to do this and desert the repub lican party, which not only cast ail but four of the 154 votes east in con gress for the amendment, but nas written into the statutes of the United States every word of law that appears there against trusts? HR VAN AN ARiETL DODGER. W. J. Bryan does not have to go outside his ow n party to find men who question both his sincerity and con sistency on the ’’paramount” issue, particularly in regard to the Philip pine:?. Hon. J. B. Corey of Pittsburg, Pa., former democratic candidate for gov ernor of Pennsylvania, under date o? September 16, 1900, addressed the loi lowing letter to Mr. Bryan: •’Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 15, 1900. "Hon. W. .1. Bryan, Lincoln, Neb.: "My Dear Sir—I have not received any reply to my letter directed to you at Chicago, asking you if you believed that the negroes of Cuba, Porto Riio, Hawaii anil the Philippines, who never had lived uniter a republican form of government or exercised the right cf manhood suffrage, are more capable of self-government than the American negroes id our southern states who were born and raised under our re publican form of government and had tue right of suffrage for one-third uf a century. If not. do you approve of the legislatures of the southern statm disfranchising our American negroes, who for one-third of a century have exercised the right of suffrage auu insist upon the right of self-govern ment to the half-civilized negro of the Philippines? I do not wish to be un derstood as defending the McKinley administration or espousing our peo ple’s war with Ppain and its results, but. simply as an American citizen, r wish to learn your sentiments as a candidate for the presidency on the paramount issue of self-government. I am, dear sir, very respectfully yours, "J. B COREY, "rorrnpr Democrat Candidate for Gov ernor of Pennsylvania." It will be observed that Mr. Corey has written more than one letter on the subject, but thus far Mr. Bryan has carefully avoided answering or ex plaining the inconsistency Mr. Corey points out. A copy of the above letter was handed to Mr. Bryan In person while he was on the stage at Weeping Wafer. Neb . on the evening of rtep I tetnber 21. but he very adroitly ig nored it and made no referente to It. i Mr. Bryan's failure to make answer | simpiv emphasizes his Insincerity.

Alas, poor Yorick! WOULD HAVE BAD EFFECT !n the corner of the reading room ut the Omaha -Commercial club ye.* terday threw gentlemen representing varied interests talked significantly of the political situation. The conversa tionalists were U. S. Hayward of the Williams & Hayward Shoe Co., O. R. Williams, a tanner well known throughout Douglas county, and E. A. Willie, president of the Omaha Press men's union, and the conversation rau | ilke this: Mr. Williams— Mr. Hayward. ;n your opinion, would the election of Mr. Bryan have any effect upon the manufacturing and jobbing interests? Mr. Hayward—Yes; it would un doubtedly have a had effect. It would take us back to the conditions of 1891, when the stability of our currency was seriously threatened and money tightened up. Four years ago, it will be remembered, manufacturing con cerns throughout the country were in a bad way. Some of the mills were shut down completely and the others were greatly curtailed In operation. That condition was brought about by bad tariff legislation and the free sil ver agitation, and both of these evils would be upon us again tn the event of democratic success tills year. Mr. VViiiis*—the workingmen or the cities have us much at stake In this campaign as do the manufacturers, for they are the first and greatest suf ferers when the mills dose down. Thousands of men were out of work four years ago. ami now many of the big factories are unable to get as many operators as they desire. Right here In Omaha from 2u to 50 per cent, of the members of the different labor unions were unemployed in 1896, w hile this year every union reports its lull membership at work, 1 should think that the enforced idleness of a lurgi numb r of workingmen in the cities would have some effect upon the farmers. What do you think of it, M,\ Williams? Mr. Williams—Well, of course, the farmer's prosperity depends very largely upon a favorable market, an 1 you can't have a very good market when thousands of men in the cities are unemployed. During the four years of hard times, from 1893 to 1896, there was an Immense falling off in the domestic consumption of far*n products. The government statistics show that the average decreased con sumption of 'wheat in the United States was over sixty million bushels a year for the four years, and the per capita consumption of corn dropped from 30 bushels in 1892 to 14 bushels in 1896. This great slump In the do mestic market had its enect upon the foreign market, of course. No matlcr how bountiful the crops may be the farmer can have no good times when the markets are poor. Mr. Wilils—The decreased consump tlon of wheat and corn in the United States during the four years of 1892-6 was undoubtedly due to the Inability of the unemployed workingmen of th? cities to provide a comfortable living for their families. There must have been even a greater decrease in the consumption of meats. Mr. Williams—Undoubtedly so. At South Omaha Stock Yards the callie receipts for the seven months of 1900 ending July 31 was 424.236. as again V 220,324 for a like period in 1896—a gain of nearly 100 per cent. The hog re ceipts for the first seven months of this year were 1,121,171, as against 717,976 for the corresponding period of 1890. Mr. Hayward—No one will deny that we are having general prosperity at this time. Farmers are having good crops and good markets, work ingmen in the cities are having steady employment at good wages and the manufacturers and jobbers are enjoy ing a constantly increasing business. Do we owe any measure of praise to the republican party for all this? Mr. Willis—I think we do. I know that hundreds ot big mills in the east that were dosed by democratic tarift tinkering have been reoponed by wise republican tarift ft-gislation. Without these mills in operation thousands of meu would be out of work, and to that extent our general prosperity would he impaired. Mr. Hayward—We must thank tlm republican party also for sound finan cial legislation, which has restored confidence and returned money to cir culation. If this government shou'u undertake the unlimited coinage jf stiver at a fixed ratio of 16 to 1 we could have nothing like stability for our currency, and without a stable circulating medium there coitid ue no confidence. The election of Mr. Bryan would drive capital into its hiding place again, and the farmer, the workingman and tue manufacturer and jobber would suffer the conse quences. Mr. Willis—I think the workingman would suffer first, heiause a cesaat'on of Industrial activities must neces sarily and imniMliutrly follow the withdrawal of capital from its natural channels of usefulness. When capital avoids permanent investment and temporary employment. Improvements of all kinds ■ ease, factories all over the country are hamitered in their op erations and workingmen are throw u out of their jobs by the hundred. Mr. Williams Arc you gentlemen of the opinion that Mr. Bryan is any more reliable In prophecy today than he was in ISM? Mr. Hayward Mr llryan may lie u gifted man. but eoreslght Is a quaillv that he lacks in lk‘.c« he predicted ail sorts of dire recoils from a Mi Kin ley victory. According to his clews, the election of McKinley meant a con tract Ion of currency, lower prices for products ot -ue soli, lees work atld less wage- for (tie laboring man more and higher Interest tor the farmer and a continuation ot me hard tine* generally Me Willis \» far as the laboring classes are con re r usd Mr ttrvan s , prophecies of I*'* have lied material lived workingfu«n I to not on * footed the demand f<- their services *n j larged, but t to «r hours shortened an | : their Wages Itirresssd la Omaha ta ! |aa* the Fres»iiu> k « unlit e tie was ; |t« to |i« a Wc as for ten hours work ' Mai the pay is the same fur aia# i hours work I ke I' vdH' t ltn< k 'layers and !Ui ben steal Tckdsra • union bad in 1896 a scale of 15 to 17'4 cents per hour; today their scale is 24 cents per hour, and they have ao eight-hour instead of a ten-hour day. The Plumbers union scale was 45 cents per hour in 189C, now it is 50 cents; the Bricklayers' union wage scale in 1896 wm 50 cents per hour; now it is 55 cents. The Carpenters union Beale was 30 cents per hour; now it is 40 cents. The Painters and Decorators' union has advanced its scale from 30 cents to 36 cents, and the Sheet Metal Workers wages have been increased from 2“?4 cents to aS1* cents per hour. 1 might go on and show* similar increases in all th.i trades, hut I have given sufficient facts to demonstrate that Mr. Bryan’*1 prophecy of lowvr wages has not been fulfilled, Mr. Williams—And as to farmers, Mr. Bryan was also mistaken. The prices paid for all kinds of farm prod ucts have advanced from 10 to 200 per cent. Money is easier to get and in terest rates are lower by from two to three per cent. Mr. Hayward—As to the contraction of currency which Mr. Bryan predicted as a certain result of the defeat of his free silver scheme, I might say that it has not come true. The per capita circulation in 1896 was $21.10; on May ui this year it was $26.58. WHY THE DEMAND? During the first eight months of this year the number of head of live stork received at South Omaha mure thun doubled the number received during the corresponding months of the democratic year of 1896. For the first eight months of 1896 the receipts were 1,305,622, and for the first eight months of 1900, 2.772,021. This tre mendous increase of receipts lias been accompanied by steadily advancing prices. The loans and discounts of tliu l nion Stock Yards National bank have increased 148 per cent, and the deposits.2’04 per cent, during the past four yeai". All of this is a certain in dication of prosperity not only at South Omaha but throughout tlie* country. South Omaha would not t><* enjoying the benefits of a rapidly growing stock market and pac king in dustry unless there was a good de mand from the eotitj'ry at large for meats. Why the demand? Because under an administration that guaran tees safety to business interests in general by providing a sound financial system and a protective tariff the fac tories have been kept in operation, labor has been employed and all work ingmen have been enabled to provide adequately for themselves and the.r families, if we are to have cheap money, no confidence and even u par tial shutting down of American mills, the demand for meats and all th'> other necessities of life will slacken and South Omaha, with its live stock an i packing interests, will be one of the first and greatest sufferers. The peo ple of this city can have no good rea son for desiring a change. LIVE STOCK. The tremendous increase of bus - ness at the South Omaha Jive stock market is an unfailing sign of pros perity. It indicates a strong and ad vancing nfarket for the products of the farms, which would he Impossible without general prosperity among the workers of the cities. The following table shows the live stock receipts at the stock yards for the first eight months of this McKinley year and foi the corresponding eight months of cue democratic year of 1896: 1896. 1900. Cattle .316,315 512,103.. 62 Hogs .798.639 1,501,302— 88 hnepp .190,649 758,616—298 Here is an increase in the number of cattle received of C2 per cent" hogs, 88 per cent. In other words. 195, mb more cattle, 702,664 more hogs and 567,967 more sheep were marketed at South Omaha during the first eight months of this year than during the corresponding months of 1890. This immense increase in the number of cattle, hogs and sheep received at South Omaha indicates a correspond ing increase In the demand for meat which could not have appeared had the Industrial conditions of 1896 con tinued. It might he said that the re ceipts at South Omaha have been in creased by the additions to the pack ing houses at that point and that a large number of stock raisers who formerly shipped to ( im ago are now marketing at South Omaha, but this would not weakt n the assertion that the increase in receipts shows a cor responding increase in the general de mand. for the receipts at Chicago have also been advancing steadily during the past four years. With the heavy increase In receipt* there has also been a steady advance in price. Steers, far Instance, sold July 31, 1890, at from $3.75 to $3.70. and on July 31. 19b,0. they brought $5.50; hogs sold July 31, 1896, at $3.77, and July 31. 1900. the price was $5.09, sheep on July 31, 1890, ranged from $2 to $5.50, and on July 31, 1900, from $4 to $5 45. This shows conclusively that the farmers and stock raisers of j this section of the country are no: only selling a great deal more stock now than they were in 1890. but they are receiving much better prices. Another certain indication of pros perity for all those connected with ! live stock interests is furnished by a ; comparison of the latest stajement of I the 1'nion Stock Yards Nat Bum! bank with iffe statement of the saute Insii j tution dated Or tuber 6. i896. In 1896 j the loans and discounts amounted to 9746,977, and now they sum up $1, 8.58,280, shiiwring an increase of II 111, , 303, or 148 per cent. In 1896 the d** | posit* amounted to $1,096,770, and now they foot up $3 339,163. showing an in ( cream of $3 212.393, or 2<>4 p r cent. a»i w»s'i ri*i.
