but no man is shrewd enough to fore
sec the long' drought which may burn
up the harvests of whole states, or the
cold rains which may make the work
of the farmer futile. Last year the
chief corn-growing states were smit
ten with drought which lasted from
early in July till 1 apte in August. The
result was a falling-oIT of more than
halt a million bushels in thecrop. This
year, according to the Youth's Com
panion. the conditions indicate the
largest crop ever harvested. Theacre
age planted with corn has been con
siderably larger than it was last year;
and the harvest promises to be greater
by at least 1,000,000.000 bushels. Last
year an exceptionally heavy -wheat
<•1-011 partly offset the disappointment
in the corn harvest. Thi*-year the acre
age of wheat is smaller than last, and
some injury was done by early drought
to winter wheat in the northwest. The
total yield may fall 100,000.000 bushels
under last year's, but it will be larger
than has been harvested in any save
two or three exceptional years. The
harvest of oats promises to be the
largest on record, and the yield of bar
ley will be far above the average.
These are cheering conditions; for
when the farmer smiles over abund
ant, crops, all the rest of us, city-folk
as well as country-folk, smile with
liim.

«r who was taking the first vacation
from his business he had allowed him
self since IST!. During those years he
had amassed a considerable fortune,
but at the same time had completely
blighted his ability to enjoy the wealth
he had gathered. He had become such
a slave to money that it ran through
his whole conversation, to the distress
of all who were within hearing of his
harsh, guttural, grating voice. He
admitted that his wife and children
had now left him, and cared for him
only to the extent of the money they
could extort from him by various
means. No one who listened to his
public airing of private affairs, says
the Chicago Sun. wondered at the ac
tion of his family, for he had by
constant, grinding at his grind
ing business for more than 30
years without, even one day's re
laxation converted himself into noth
ing more than a contemptible and sor
did old money bag. with no capacity
for giving enjoyment to his family ot h
er than what they could buy with the
money they could squeeze from him.
The Indiana gentleman who forgot
liis wedding day was not so culpable
as may seem. He kept a quick Innctl

and the hurry of orders minor mat

recognized the strenuousness of the
situation and wisely forgave a man

The democratic managers have an
nounced that.they will have a speaking
campaign, of the old-fashioned kind
indue season. iDoubtless the orators
are now practicing their pieces, well
aware that, they must be more circum
spect than usual. If the leaders are
prudent they will have the speakers
before them for rehearsal. If they
talk along the line of the state plat
form no allusion can be made to the
record and purposes of the democratic
party the past six years. If they ig
nore the state platform and accept the
statement of Secretary Kdwards, of
the democratic congressional commit
j tee. the faithful will be edified by al
lusions to the Kansas City platform
; as the last expression of democratic
fiaith. Hi- is a hopelessly stupid demo-
I cratic orator who does not now realize
that there are two wings to the demo
cratic party, or. more correctly, two
democratic parties, which arc as far
1 apart as the poles. The ( levcland-
Hill democracy is the most distinctive
i Wall-street political organization the
1 country affords, while the Bryan
democracy descibes all "112 the heresies
of populism, says the Indianapolis
| Journal.
It will be said that none of these dif
ferences which divide the party need
be discussed in the campaign.. That
: is. the democratic party has come to
1 a place where it is not politic to dis
j cuss that portion of its past that is
! not older than any voting democrat.
; In other words, the speaker must not
| talk of democratic principles since the
| days of Andrew Jackson, unless the
! risk of controversy as to what eon-
J stitutics democratic principles shall
I be. assumed by the orator. Still, a
i party which declares that its tradi
: t.ion« are as old as the constitution
cannot go before an audience and be
silent as to that long record. Neither
j can an orator trace these principles
; down to the administration of Martin
Van Buren and stop there with the ob
servation that the democratic record
from 1840 to 1868 is of 110 consequence,
and that since 1892 the democratic par
j ty has had two set*; of principles which
| have the same affinity for each other
j that cats and dogs have in a state of na
j ture. The half-sensible democratic
! orator must realize that he must say
' something of the record of the demo
; cratic party since 1892; he must know
that many democrats now desire to
know whether the democracy of Cleve
land or Bryan is to dominate in the
, future. No man will be a convert to
I democracy unless he knows to which
of these two wide-apart factions and
j views he will be consigned.
In view of these weighty embarrass
-1 ments,the Journal offers two or three
suggestions that may simplify the
I situation. First,when the democratic
j orator faces his democratic audience
1 let him begin with the statement, that
the democratic party is now divided
between two sets of icleas. Let him
say: "I wish to suit my audience, and
to that end I have two speeches, one
fitted to the Bryan platform aiid the
other to the Cleveland platform. I
propose to advocate the platform
wnieh the majority of this audience
favors. To determine the majority.
I will take a vote. Those who desire
the Bryaii brand, please rise." Hav
ing counted the democrats who would
continue to hail Bryan as "the peer
less leader" and his platform as the
genuine democracy, let him call upon
those who prefer the Cleveland brand
of democratic principles. Having as
certained which faction is the larger,
let him advocate the principles.it pre
fers. In the event that the two fac
tions are so equally divided that he is
in doubt as to which is the larger,
let. him make both speeches. It may
be a trifle tedious, unless one faction,
following the example of both Mr.
Cleveland and Mr. Bryan, applies epi
thets to each other. This would give
interest to a meeting that otherwise
would be still—still as a llfll demo
crat in 1896. If the orator fears to put
the vote, as suggested, he can say that
"just now t here is a doubt as to v\ li eth
er the principles of David B. Hill or
those of William J. Bryan are the genu
ine ones; therefore, until the ques
tion shall be decided, I will proceed
upon the theory that the democratic
party has no principles." The adop
tion of either of these suggestions,
if previously a nnounced. will bring out
large audiences where otherwise the
meetings would be small, and general
ly will give (he feature of gayety to
what otherwise, on the democrat side,
will be a mournful campaign.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1902.
BOGEY JBRYANISM.
Urmnrnillr I'actlonn Torn ti > llopen
ll uli l'c arx Concernina the
"Great Failure."
Scarcely a day passes without a let
ter or an interview from William J.
llryan regarding the candidacy for
190-1. It will be noticed, too, that all
the questioners are democrats. The
most recent one is the editor of the
New Orleans Times-I (einoerat, who has
elicited from llryan the response that
"I shall not be a candidate for the
presidency in the next campaign," to
which is added the stipulation: "If I
ever again become a candidate for the
presidency it, will be because i am
convinced that 1 can in that way give
more effective aid to the cause in
which I am enlisted for life, and 1 am
not anxious to be convinced, i cannot j
say more without prejudging events."
Tli is answer Is likely to call out, other ;
questions. The reason of this is that '
the answers do not. settle anything j
definitely, says the St. Louis Globe- ;
Democrat, llryan says if he ever be- .
comes the candidate again it will be ;
because he is convinced that he can in j
that way give more aid to his cause i
than lie can in private life. Which j
means that if a democrat ie con vent ion j
offers him the nomination he will ac- i
eept it. This will be the meaning that i
nine out of every ton persons in the j
country will put.on these words, l.ry- !
an's friends, as a consequence, will be |
encouraged, and some of them to
morrow or the next day will ask him
this quest ion over again, wit h the IK pe
of getting an answer which will show
a little less coyness than he has dis
played for the past few days, while
some of his democratic enemies will
put the query to him with the hope of
getting some answer that will take
liitn altogether out of the field, or
which will appear to do this.
There is significance in the circum
stance that the quest loners in all cases
are democrats. The hopes of the one
element of the democracy and the
fears oft he other ingredient will keep
Mr. Bryan busy answering these inter
rogations along till the day of the big
convention, llryan is a large person
age still in the democratic party. The
solicitude of his friends and his foes
proves this. 'lthe republicans are show
ing less interest in him because they
knowthat they can win without the aid
he would furnish as a democratic can
didate. The republicans can beat any
ma n the democrats have in their ranks.
In the meantime, if the democrats feel
like putt ing up Mr. Bryan for his 1 bird
battle, the republicans will not make
the slightest objection to their course.
REVISION OF THE TARIFF.
It Will "Never He Done with Ilenefit
to American Interc>Mtn hy the
DciiioeratN.
The statement of Senator C'ullom
that the republicans of Illinois and
the whole west are in sympathy with
the demand of Hie lowa republican
platform that the tariff should be re
vised periodically seems to indicate
that the tariff question will be taken
up in congress within the near future,
says the Cleveland Leader.
As a matter of fact, few republicans
lire "wedded to schedules." This was
shown when the. Dingley law was en
acted. for that amounted to a revision
of the tariff downward from the sched
ules that had been incorporated in the
MeKinley law. There has been, since
the enactment of the Dingley law. no
insistance upon the maintenance of its
schedules. The necessity for revision
has been admitted by republican lead
ers from time to time. There has,
however, been strenuous opposition
on the part of republicans to a re
vision along democratic lines. As Sen
ator Cullorn says, the democrats are
free traders tariff smashers—and if
they are intrusted with the work of
revision, something like the Wilson
law. with its blighting effects upon
the industries of the country, will be
the result.
The republicans are the friends of
protection. They always go about tar
iff legislation with the purpose of tak
ing care of the industries of the I'nit
ed States <>f protecting the interests
of capital and labor in this country,
and the records of the two part ies dur
ing t*ie past half century give ample
proof that it is far safer to intrust the
work of tariff revision to the republic
ans than to the democrats.
ONE OF THEIR ISSUES.
The I)« morrnlM \rv Talking of Wnk
iuu Paramount flu* Question of
'*IKIK!I I'riopti."
Now it is given out that one of the
vital i--ue- that democracy will make
the next campaign will be "high
prices." They will point to the fact
that the laboring man lin 1 ; to pay more
for wheat he buys than he did under
Cleveland, and that republican admin*
Istration brought this condition. It
is to be « xpected that democracy, that
has done nothing but bungle in it*
plat form for the past 40 years or more,
would fall into about such a trap as
this. TI icy do not stop to think that
labor is getting all the way from 25
per cent, to llio per cent. mure wages
per day than it did then, and uasily
getting double the number of days'
employment that they git then. Tliev

from double to three t lme» the amount
for hi- produce now that he got then.

Washington, Sept. 11. -The monthly
report of the department of agricul
ture shows the average condition of
corn on September 1 to have been
MJi. as compared wtli sti.o on August
1. 1902, and a ten-year average of 7s.H.
Kxcept in Kansas and South Dakota,
which report a decline of 12 points
mid 10 points respectively during Aug
ust, no material change of condition
is reported from any of the principal
corn states, and except those of the
south and the state of Michigan, they
again report condition averages in
excess of their respective averages
for the last ten years.
The average condition at harvest of
winter and spring wheat combined
! was 80, against, 82.8 last year, and a
j ten-year average of 7:!.9.
North Dakota, South Dakota, >ie
• braska and Missouri report 20, 24,
' and 24 points, respectively, above
! their ten-year averages, while I'enn
; sylvania ; ml California report 5 points
: below- the ten-vear average,
i
The average condition of oats when
harvested was 87.2, against, 82.1 last
, year, and a ten-year average of 79.7.
: While correspondents report the har-
I vesting of an exceptionally large crop
j of oats, there are indications that the
crop will be very deficient in point of
! quality.
There was a decline in the eondi
: tion of sweet potatoes during Aug
j ust. and in all the principal states ex
, eept New Jersey. Virginia and Soulh
( arolina, present conditions arc be
low the ten-year averages.
The acreage of cloverseejl has been
considerably reduced since last year,
only two of the principal states—■
i Mary land and Ohio—reporting even a
! small increase.
Of the states having 4,000,000 trees
! and upwards in apples, 11 report an
1 improvement in condition during Aug
' ust. All but six of the important tip
ple growing states report conditions
, ranging from 7 to 32 points above
, their ten-year averages; in Ohio the
condition agrees with such average;
while Indiana, West Virginia, Ten
! nessee and Kentucky report condi
| turns below such average.
Ueports as to the production of
| peaches as compared with a full crop
|in the important peach growing
| states range from 10 per cent. In 1111—
i nois to 99 in Oklahoma. In all but
| eight of the states having 2,000,000
! trees and upwards in 1899, a produe
j tion exceeding the ten-year average
Is probable.
In all the states in which the pro-
I duction of grapes is of more than lo
! eal importance, the condition is equal
to or above the ten-year average.
There is a decrease in the number
of hogs now being fattened compare !
with a year ago in every important

Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 11. —The
| German steamer Valencia, which ar
j rived here Wednesday from Sanni
; Maria, capital of the department of
| Magdalena, •Colombia, brings news of
| a victory at, Santa Maria by the
; Colombian revolutionists over the
i government forces.
C-apt. Gronmeyer, of the Valencia,
| says that last Friday the revolution
\ ist.s made a desperate attack on the
j outskirts of Santa Marta. The gov
] eminent troops were overwhelmed
i and forced to retreat, leaving behind
| them 100 dead. Immediately after
; the withdrawal of the government
forces the rebels started to destroy
! the railroad tracks. They derailed
. several trains at various points, dc
' inolishing engines and cars, the latter
; being chiefly fruit vans. Several lives
were also lost, in these wrecks.
| Saturday the revolutionists occu
pied the banana district of Senega,
, where they continued to wreck the
| railroad, at the same time keeping up
J their advance towards Santa Marta.
j When the Valencia sailed from Santa
| Marta Monday the revolutionists were
! so near town that Capt. tlronmeyer
| could see the flashes of their guns,
j Several buildings in Santa Marta were
j then blazing, having been ignited by
| the few triiops left there to oppose
• the attack of the revolutionists. The
. town at that time was expected mo
mentarily to surrender.
Owing to the total destruction of
the railroad, the Valencia did not get
her cargo of fruit nt Santa Marta,
Officers <if the Valencia say that
horrible atrocities were committed
during the fighting by the rebels, who
chiefly used machetes. Almost all of
the government troops killed were
! found along the railroad track, their
j bodies being terribly mutilated. They
| were partially covered by bran; lies of
I banana trees.
The revolutionists gained posses
sion nf Cnlebra without opposition
and their possession of that point has
nut been disturbed. The government
is maintaining au attitude of defense
and a desperate engagement is ex
pected shortly. Business on the istli

tology work, will join Student As
sistant Eustace Furlong, who is on
the scene, digging into the- precious
deposits for the bone he lias found.
Prof. Merriam believes that Fur
long has discovered a "fissure cave"
and that, to till this crevice in the
earth has taken thousands of years.
In this case the discoveries will lead
back to an indefinite period, and the
successive layers o" soil and gravel
will prove a veritable storehouse of
geological curiosities.

hundred aches in as many places. I
only used the Compound for a few
weeks, but it wrought a change in me
which I felt from the very beginning.
I have been very regular since, have no
pains, and find that my entire body is
as if it was renewed. I gladly recom

At such a time the greatest aid to
nature is L,ydia R. Pinkliam's
Vegetable Compound. It prepares
the young system for the coming
change, and is the surest reliance for
woman's ills of every nature.
Mrs. Pinkhain invites all
young women who are ill to
write her for free advice. Ad-
