GOOD NEWS. GOOD TIMES.
The good times are coming, "Walt a
little longer." Wages are going up all
over tho country except among the coal
miners of this region ; but their time will
come soon enough. Dollar wheat is it)
sight. That means high wages for the
farmers. They nre the greatest number
of working people In the country. When
times are good for them times are good
for everybody. Old factories are being
reopened ; new ones are building. The
steam and electrirlty of new enterprises
fill the land.
Don't sit down and speculate on what
caused the hard times the tariff or too
much silver or too little gold. Every-
body had the same trouble everywhere,
but they have not come through it as we
have in this free country with patience.
with hope, with our backs to despair and
our faces to a future of prosperity.
Good times here, but they are not
everywhere. The Marquis of Salisbury,
ex-Premier of England, speaking In the
manufacturing town of Bradford the
other night, said that there are iu Eng
land sullen- ranks of half-starved laborers
who, if the unemployed capital be in
vested, would enjoy an unrestricted in
dustry and a happy home, but between
the overflowing coffers and the suffering
laborers there flows a black, Impassable
stream of distrust.
There is no "black, impassable stream
here. This Is Factolus of the golden
Bands, or of the sliver sands, if you would
rather have them of that kind. This
no time for politics or prating. This
the time for work The sun Is shining,
Make hay.
Queensbeery's ungrateful son, who
tried to "do" his father in a London
street, the other day, 1b now convinced
that the old man is still in the ring. His
memory of the little encounter will last
long after his eyes gets well.
California's fruit crop In ten years
has increased sevenfold, and its value last
year was f50,000,000, or 110,000,000 more
than that of the gold mined in the state.
The experience of California shows that
the demand for fine fruit Is practically
unlimited.
Several recent legal decisions indicate
that when a man is a low down, com
mon thief he will get punished it he is
cjaught, but if he occupies a high offi
cial place he may safely count on being
whitewashed. Moral : don't steal till
you get Into a very high office.
The new "Company Store Bill," means,
If it means anything, that if you employ
any help and want to pay the men in
store orders, checks, "dividers," coupons
or anything but actual cash you must
make a report to the state and pay a tax
ot 25 per cent, on the amount. Upon
failure to make this report a fine can be
imposed. The tarmer who pays his men
in board and produce must make a report
or be fined. The merchant who pays bis
clerks partly In goods must pay a
tax on the part he pays in goods or be
liable to arrest.

whs launched the other day, and a Trilby

If tho sonato resolution prevails no bills

Another Outbreak of Armenians
Expeoted Noxt Month,
rHE OPPRESSED PEOPLE STARVING.
the Reports of the Terrible Atrocities by
Turks and Kurds Further Confirmed by
a British Official and nn American Mis
sionary. LONDON, May 27. Thosoeclal corrnsnnn.
lent of thq Associated Pross in Armtmln
writes as follows from Kors, Russia, un
ier dato of April 20:
During tho past threo weeks I have had
anusual opportunity for obtaining addi
tional confirmation of tho facts contained
In my announcement of tho lmpondlng
uprising of tho Armenians in Turkoynoxt
month. I havo travolcd many miles up
hud down aud across tho bordor In search
of certain facts, nnd as a result I havo bad
thn satlsfactiou of actually seeing and
handling some of tho rifles now being
imugglcd across tho Turkish frontier by
tho revolutionary party. Moreovor, the
plans of tho party havo been more fully
Bxplalned to mo by somo of the most ac
tive and Intelligent of tho leaders of tho
eastern wing of tho movement, and I am
now entirely satisfied that unless unfore
seen and uncontrollablo circumstances
arise, tho uprising will take place.
Tho exact dato for tho uprising has not
yet beon fixed, for tho most part to the
fact that tho oxtromo castorn section of
tho revolutionary party is not ready for
actlvo operations. Whether or not tho
central section will wolt for tho costern
wing longer than tho month of May I do
not know, nor has tho matter actually
been decided. I am led to bellovo that the
eastern wing cannot bo ready for hostilities
In May, and possibly not before July 1.
Tho oastcrn wing has been nnd is having
a hard tlmo of it, owing to two circum
stances over which tho leaders havo no
control.
Tho mountain passes leading to Van
havo boon blocked with snow for months,
bo that it was impossible to forward guns
and ammunition from Russia and Persia.
Bcsidos, tho Armonlnnsln tho eastern end
of Turkey aro In a condition bordering on
starvation. It is obvious that peoplo in
thU condition cannot fight. On this point,
a leading executive officer of the revolu
tionary party said to me three days ago:
"If men have nothing in thoir stomachs
what can thoy dof Wd mUst first feed
them beforo wo can expect .them to fight.
When we can get food enough on hand to
last them two months then We shall show
tho world how Armenians can fight."
It is this question of food that tho revo
lutionary leaders will find most difficult
of Eolutlon. It Is a fact that In tho east
ern part of Armenia food is so scarco that
well-to-do and rich peoplo havo no more
than they actually need. As for the poor
Armenians, their condition Is distressing
in the oxtremo, and, added to the rob
beries, outrages and massacres which
Turks and Kurds havo brought upon
them, thoy aro now harassed by a famine
so terrlblo that many of thorn aro actually
dying of starvation.
Fow crops wero grown last summer,
owing to tho fact that many of tho farm
ers and cultivators wcro thrown into
prison by tho Turks undercharges of revo
lutionary conspiracy. Then the cattlo
were stolen by tho Kurds, and what tho
poor peoplo had left In tho way of provis
ions, or property was seized by the govern
ment officials for taxes. Evon tho com
monest household utensils wero taken by
the tax gathers, so that the people wcro
loft destitute.
There will bo no crops planted in eastern
Armenia this spring for the country every
where Is suffering from a rolgn of terror.
Tho presonce of tho commission of inquiry
at Moosh and the. indignation of the
Christian powers of Europe have had ab
solutely no effect on tho conduct of either
tho Turks or tho Kurds In eastern Turkey.
am just in receipt of trustworthy ad:
vices from a non-Armenian source at Van
to the effect that a massacro ls-looked for
ot any moment. My correspondent writes
that thoy are living "within an Inch ot a
massacro ' all the tlmo.
When the new grass of spring enables
the Kurdish horsemen to movo about tbe
country the work of exterminating tho
Armenians, whloh was interrupted by tho
fall of snow after the Sassoun and Moosh
massacres last autumn, will be begun
anew. With no crops and no cattle of their
own,- tho Armenians will either die of
starvation or flee to Persia and Russia.
The famine will seriously affoct both
Kurds and Turks, as thoy live mainly
upon tho Industry of tho Armenians tho
former by open handed robbory and the
last named by extortion and outrageous
taxation.
It is a fact, which tbe British govern
ment can verify by consulting the report
of Mr. Paton, an official ot the British
consulate at Tebrlz, Persia, thatin several
cases tbe Turkish officials in the devas
tated district ot Armenia there could
hardly save the Armenians from death and
tho property from destruction; but, when
they protested against tho murderous raids
of tbe troops, tho officers read to them tho
orders ot the sultan, and so nothing could
bo done. In many cases the officials of tho
villages warned the Armenians a day be
fore the soldiers appoaredln order that tho
poor peoplo might have a chance to escape.
Tho investigation of Mr. Paton along
the Persian border has been confirmed, in
a genoral way, the facts which I have in
cidentally obtained during the past eight
weeks. He has collected many heartrend
ing stories of persecution, robbory, out
rage and murder, with names, dates and
places, and as reasonable proof that the
retugoes who gavo testimony to him told
tho truth it may bo said that. In a general
way, tho facts obtained In different places
were practically the same. The events of
the massacre wore so horrible that even,
tbe chronic exaggerotipu of tbe Armenian

(.From. Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.)
Our representative was rrrottmri
pleasantly at 803 Alexander Street, by
Miss Alice Young, who told how sinco
childhood sho had been held In the bond
ngo of pain from her back, never re
membering tho timo that sho had not suf-
fcreu pain or nches in tho region of the
kidneys. Many were tho moans oho used
to find relief, but there seemed no remedy
for her caso nnd sho still remained a cap
tive; then along comes these little enemies
to backache, Doan's Kidney Pills, and a
half box releases tho bonds, as one by one
the aches and pains disappear, sho finds
herself a slavo to pain no more, by their
continued use. Sho says ; " I was entirely
relieved of all my suffering and now I am.
perfectly strong, healthy and well."
"How did you take this remedy ? ".Miss
Young was asked by our representative,
sho replied that sho followed directions
explicitly. Miss Young then told how tho
malady affected her, saying her symptoms
wcro: " Stooping, bending over, walking
or standing any length of timo always
kuvu mu u mim m tno smau ot my back.
I had a pain in tho kidneys all tho time,'
and if I caught cold it would always
BCttlo there; tho pain I suffered was of
very exhaustlnc naturo nt nM T
could only Ho flat on my back any other
position causing pain and suffering; the
nerves passing up my back, wcro affected
nnd this brought with it severe headaches,
but as I said before, Doan's Kidney Pills
have removed all pain and suffering en
tirely nnd I never felt better and healthier
in my life."
