PANIC AND PROSPERITY—PRICES OF FARM PRODUCTS.
The above chart traces the direction of prices of fnrm products from 1592
to 1905, Inclusive. Exact figures cannot be given In this limited space, but
through percentages the trend of prices may be accurately ascertained. Plac
ing 100 as the ten year average, 1-890-1900, there is nn aln-upt and swift descent
from 1802 to 18dft of from 111.7 to 78.3.- This was the Cleveland free trade
period, hi 1897 a marked ascent In prices had begun, from 78.3 to 85.2. Fol
lowing the passage of the Dingicy tariff act In 1897 the ascent is swift and
unbroken, from 78.8 in 1890 to 130.5 In 1902. Then occurs a drop to 118.8 in
1903, followed by a recovery to 12f>.2 in 1904, and a slight drop back to 124.2
Ui 1003*. At the rate of a dollar a reason the farmers of the United States, con
trasting the low water mark of 1806 with the present stage of farm product
und farm land values, may be said to have twenty billion reasons for rejecting
free trade and adhering to protection.
MEN OF THE NATION.
Irdorte the Oppenheimer Institute am
Its Great Work For Practical
Temperance.
The following excerpts are taken
from replies to inquiries re'utive to
the efficacy of the Oppenheimer Treat
ment as a means of overcoating the
drink habit. The names of the per
sons quoted include well known clergy
men, men of national rcputatiou, busi
ness men, bankers, capitalist*, noted
physicians, philanthropists and others
of highest standing and credibility.
The Oppenheimer Treatment is ad
ministered at the Oppeuheirner Insti
tute in New York and at branches la
various cities of the United State#,
England and other countries.
By Its means the desire for alcoholic?
stimulants is entirely removed withip
forty-eight hours, no detention from
the ordinary business pursuit being
necessary while il is being taken. A
complete restoration to normal health
is assured in a few weeks and the
craving will never of itself return.
The testimonials tell the story of the
benolits that tire to be derived from a
course of Oppenheimer Treatment:
Rev. C. H. Fowler, D. D.. LL. D., bish
jp Methodist Episcopal church, writes:
"I am thoroughly acquainted .villi the
Oppenheimer Institute and can say they
will do all they advertise. The treatment
is a success, it will entirely remove the
craving in from six to forty-eight hours,
it cures. You can trust both the treat*
ment and the men."
Kev. Ifenry C. Potter, JD. D., I.L. D.,
Mshop J'lotestant Episcopal church, New
York, r wrltes: "There are cases personally
known to me of persons whom it has suc
cessfully treated."
Lady Henry Somerset of London, Eng
land, writes: "1 have carefully watched
the cases which during these past few
months passed under his care, and I am
quite prepared to state that Dr. Oppen
heimer has accomplished what he under
took to carry out. 1 frankly own that al
tlrst I was skeptical as to what tho re
sult would be. 1 had seen so many fail
ures and had hitherto little faith in such
remedies, but from the first Dr. Oppon
heinier maintained that what he would
undertake to do was to kill the urgent
desire and craving which a patient might
have for stimulants and that he would
restore him to health."
Archer Brown of the llrm of Rogers,
Drown & Co., iron merchants, wrote: "1
have not the slightest doubt that the Op
penheimer Treatment will take from your
friend the appetite for alcohol and luava
him free from any injurious effects of the
treatment. 1 have put through some test
cases myself to enable me to speak with
knowledge, and the results have been
most gratifying."
Leroy W. Baldwin, president Empire
Trust company, writes: "1 unhesitatingly
say 1 believe the Oppenheimer Treatment
is all that and even more than is claimed
for it.i have had evidence of the most
remarkable cures effected by it, and I
have no hesitation in recommending it."
Father John J. Hughes ot the Paulist
Fathers, New York, writes: "X have been
convinced from many cases 1 sent to the
Institute that the treatment is genuine.
You need liuvw no hesitation in urging your
friend to take the treatment, provided he
is sincere and wishes to be benefited."
lion. E. E. Jackson, ex-governor of
Maryland, writes: "1 have no hesitation
in saying to you that if your friend de
sires to be cured of th>- alcoholic habit
the Oppenheimer Treatment will certain
ly take away all desire for stimulants.
1 say this because 1 have seen a very bad
case completely cured. Of course it will
not prevent your friend frOra drinking,
but it will take away any craving for it
and completely build up his health and
nerves. My Judgment is it is the best and
only treatment for such cases."
lion. Lyman J. Gage, former secretary
of the treasury of the United States, now
president of United Stales Trust com
pany, New York, writes: "The institute
In question has been very successful, and
1 think it entitled to respect and confi
dence. Some aggravated cases of alco
holic and drug diseases have come to my
attention showing remarkable success In
tho way of cure."
Rev. George Edward Reed, D. D„ pres
ident Dickinson college, Carlisle, Pa.,
writes: "1 know that wonderful cures
have been effected and believe that tho
treatment is better than any other offered
to the public. I would certainly advise
you to have your friend enter the institu
tion for treatment."
Dr. Edgar V. Moffat. Orange, N. J„
writes: "I have availed myself of the Op
penheimer Institute in my practice for
the cure of alcoholism and drug addiction
and am enthusiastic over its work and re
sults. In my opinion It Is the best 'cure'
before us toduy."
Cyrus Edson, M. D., formerly health
commissioner of the port of New Y'ork,
wrote: "I have had a pretty extensive ex
perience with the Oppenheimer Treat
ment, having witnessed lis effect in per
haps lifty cases. 1 consider it of very
great value and have yet to see anything
but good resulting therefrom. 1 have no
ticed no sueh secondary results as are
frequently seen after other so called
'cures.' in fact, patients feel better and
stronger than before in every way. The
treatment stems to act as a general iu
st.oratlve and as a tonic while absolutely
removing desire for the stimulant, etthei
As most farmers ill Now York state
know, the grange was the most anient
opponent of the barge canal appropria
tion. It appears from the supplementa
ry report of the executive committee
and front an address nude before the
state grange meeting by the lion. John
I. IMatt of I'oughkeepsie that steps are
about to be taken to test the constitu
tionality of the canal act which was
approved by a majority of the popular
vote at the last election. Mr. IMatt said
he believed the people of the state of
New York never gave a majority in
favor of the barge canal proposition, a
fact which he had never before public
ly stated. lie made the assertion and
the accusation that the great majority
for the measure in New York city was
the grossest fraud ever perpetrated in
any election in any northern state.
"They would have us believe," he said,
"that there were more votes cast on
the barge carta 1 proposition than for
the oifice of mayor, lit a single district
in New York city there were more
votes east on the barge canal measure
than for all the candidates for mayor
on the city ticket combined, lint even
if the question was carried by the
large majority accorded it.the question
still arises. Is the act constitutional?
The best legal talent in the state says
it is unconstitutional, and 1 refer to
Ellhu Hoot, Joseph Choate, Judge An
drews and Judge Caily. Now, we do
not expect the state grange to con
tribute a large amount toward the ex
penses of the appeal, but we do want
its backing." The grange voted to ap
propriate not more titan .$.">(«) toward
the expenses of the appeal.
The new system of electing officers
was tried for the first time this year.
This consists of
a blanket ballot
on which were
printed titles of jBT «
the offices to be W a
filled in the
ueath each title jffilffijj l ' j? j
with the name w&Wf* ]
of the person for
whom they de- A.
sired to vote, JfT /A vt
and the ballots Jjjffj
were then can
vassed by eight '>i^'
tellers. It re
quired but ten i'liED SIIKI'AHD.
minutes to take np the ballot, and
within about two hours' time the re
sult was reported by the tellers, and
it was found that every office had been
tilled on the tlrst ballot, lu view of the
fact that in previous years it has re
quired the larger part of the business
session of from one to two days to
complete the election of officers, and
when the further fact is considered
that it has been reckoned that the cost
of each day's session of the state
grange, all expenses included, is not
far front SI,OOO, the new ballot as a
time saver Is a marked success.
The following officers were elected:
Master, George A. Fuller, Jefferson
county; overseer, F. N. Godfrey, Cat
