Every oU soldier knows who lave been and who are his friends. All the- legislation favorable to them has come from one party, and it i not hard to guess what party it is. Present a solid front as yon have always done; never swap horses in the middle of a stream. Ton never shook hands with the enemy until he was disarmed. Too never ate with him anless in your own camp and on your own- poncbe. i ou never accepted his invitation to "come ever," unless he met yon half way and you had the best of it Ton know which side of your bread is buttered best Stay in the camp of your friends; do not straggle. Keep in line; present the solid front for which you are so wall known; maintain your record; sustain your old comrade in arms. He needs your aid; remain firm.

Oar ambassador to Russia hearing that the Busaian Chinese railway, was ordering a large uaatiryef rails and other material, telegraphed to the management to defer- the award until A nosricsa firsts could have an opportunity to bid. They consented and several American firms Bid and' secured orders for 40,000 tone of rails and quantities of ether material. The appointment of suecosafai business men for embassadors and consols to foreign countries by President McKinley may account in no small degree for the marked increase in or exports, which in the fiscal fear of 1898 amounted to $1,874,000,000 and a trade balance in our favor of 1615,000,000, by far the largest in toe history of the country.

The 18tb, lStth arid 30th of September was the anniversary of the great battle of Chickamauga; one of the bloodiest, if not the bloodiest, battle during the rebellion, occurring in the edge of Georgia. Bragg, in addition to being reinforced by Longstreet, who commanded the flower of the army of Virginia, Governor Brown gave him the support of the Georgia militia in order to repel

invasion of the sacred-soil of that

State. They were armed with shotguns, oaing cartridges with no ball and several buckshot;

more to wound than kill in its

disabling more men. The battle

raged with terrific force, ground

literally covered with men, every mird man was killed during the battle, averaging one out of every thirty-three; one out of every ten wounded; one in every three either killed, wounded or aliasing. Seventeen thousand men were lost to the field and ranks in three days more than Shafter bad in

bis army at Santiago. Rosecrans-

was fighting double the number of his army.- "Pap" Thomas was tho mainstay of the army of the Cumberland. There 10; 000 soldiers who had assembled, detachments from Bcverul commands,

without a field officer to command,.

formed and repulsed Longstreet art severely that b could not get His men- to advance again.

.No intelligent farmer will ignorethe fact that while prices of farm products have steadily advanced under the MoKinley administration, the important item of railroad freights lias steadily declined since 1873. In 1870 tbe average receipts per ton per mile of loading railroads was $1.99; after "the crime of 1S73," that is, in 1S80, the receipts had fallen to $ 1.17, while in 1896, they had declined to 7 S cents. To-day he id paid in money that is worth

100 cents on . the dollar, but in

1873, when he received his pay

in greenbacks, tho purchasing

power of bis dollar was only o .y

cents. Add the discount on bis

money in exchange for a bushel

of wheat to the additional cost of

shipping before 1S73, and he can answer for himself the question whether he was as well off then

as he is now. If he will add to

this the greatly decreased cost of

all farm implements, like thresh

ers and mowing machines, and

what he saves on the decline of shoes, cotton and woolen clothes and everything else he uses in his household and on bis farm, the

contrast is appalling. Yet Popu

lists and Democrats are shouting themselves hoarse for ths return

of the good old bi-metallic times.

We are authorized to deny on the highest authority that there is any truth in tht statement that

tbe commissioner of pensions has

ruled deafness and rhoumatism aa non-pensionable disabilities. The law remains unchanged and no

banges have ever been made or

contemplated. All assertions to

the eontrary are false, no matter from what source they emanate.

Remember the date of the

election, the day the place, and do

your duty. A cross under the

eagle is sufficient; let it goat that. Only four more weeks of the cam

paign. There is much to be done yet Get on your working

clothes, boys.

With gold coming in and

wheat going out no great enthusiasm can bo gotten up among our farmers by the 16 to 1 silver tongued stumpers for the freeunlimited coinage of silver at that ratio "without the aid or consent

of any other nation."

Including original and in

creased claims for pensions, the McKinley administration is allow

ing 254 per day against 183 under Cleveland, while the rejections are only 216 per day compared with 313 under Democratic rule. These, figures speak for themselves.

Adjourned Conrinlttee Meeting-.

The Republican Central Committee adjourned lajtffSaturdny to meet again next Sutunisy, October IStb, promptly at Teh (10) o'clock in the. llepublie-in headquarters. Every member should be present. WM. F. BROWNING, Chairman. A. Bf SPICELY, Secretary.

More men. lost in the Vir

ginia campaign; on both sides, in killed, wounded and missing than has been in the camp at Chickamauga, Tampa- and Jacksonville

combined. This sounds incredible, but the losses aggregated over 900,000 men.

Out of the 17,000 men that

besieged Port Hudson during the rebellion, 4,000 died of disease, nearly 25 per cent. That alone is double the amount of killed and those who have died during the

entire Hispano-American war.

Manv veorjle are coiner to

disregard party lines and vote to

sustain me aamimetrauon on account of the -war measures. It was not a nolitical war. It was

maintaining the dignity of the

union ana its interests, everybody is interested in that alike. No man of reason would trv to brin?

m - - o his party higher than he would his own country.

The world has too many of

those people ''with checkered

lives" who on very small provoca

tion shoot their best friend and then commit suicide. The mistake is in the order of firing the weapon. The last shot should be fired first so as to givo tbe friend

who may he justified in living the

chance to live.

A Cheerful Country to Live In.

tle geography and being made acquainted by the war with spots of earth which we scarcely knew existed before, let us note the fact

'I never paid any attention," says one tiaveler, "if I heard

them rustling and fighting over

head or in tbe walls. I knew

they had sense enough to hold on and not drop. But if something came down on my bed with a thud I jumped out of it just as far and as quickly as I could; for that was a tarantula! A tarantula has no more sense than to let go and drop; and God help what he drops on."

An astroiogist writes of his

beloved science, recently as follows:

"The coming century promises

a tremendous revival of this ancient science .(astrology), for in tho great struggle for existence that will occur in the next hundred years it will behoove all men

and women to use every menus in

their power, not only to better their condition,. but evon to exist."

he has made no mistakes as commander-in-chief , and few mistakes generally. Discussing- camp management, he add

ed that there never was a company

The election of a Democratic Congress this year would entail

Fewer Vruf Stores.

From the New York Post.

Drug stores are decreasing in

numbor in the United States, not

withstanding the increase in population. That was tho conclusion

of a statistical demonstration

made by Joseph Fell, of Cleveland, at the annual meeting of the

American Pharmaceutical Association, held in Baltimore this week. The decreaso varies in different

parts of the country, ranging

from 1.8 per cent in .Pennsylvania in the last two years to 24.6 per cent, in Texas. The total number of drug stores in the United States in the years 1896, 1S97 and 1898 was shown by the paper

presented to be, respectively, 37,664, 36,463 and 35,467. Within the same period the num

ber of wholesale druggists also; decreased from 296 to 284. It was Mr. Fell's opinion, in which the ethor druggists concurred, ;

that the reasons for tho decrease 1

were the competition of the department stores, particularly in toilet artioles, and the wide practice of priee cutting on proprio- j tiry medicines. In concluding his paper, Mr. Fell said he believed that when the retailers number about 25,000, and the wholesalers about 200, equilibri

um will be established and the decrease would cease.

Dreadful. That makes mo

think talking of jewelry, I mean that a Washington girl who is in Paris just now writes me that the earring is in fashion not carrings, but earring, for tho fad of the moment is to wear but one, and that one as large and conspicuous as may bo. The ear selected for adornment is the left, anrl as tbe newost fashion in hair dressing leaves tbe ears entirely uncovorod, tho earring is thought to bo extremely effective. All I can say is that if tho thing threatens Washington 1 hope the government will sec that wearerjuarantincd against it. Washington Post.

The following from the statutes of Indiana is of special interest: "Jf any person shall willfully obstruct any public ditch, or shall willfully divert the water from its propor channel, ho shall bo deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, nnd upon conviction thereof shall be fined in any sum not loss than five nor more than fifty dollars, and shall also bo liable for any and all damages accruing to any person or persons or corporation by such not."

A Now Saving Hank. The public will greatly appreciate the convenience afforded

through an ordor issuod by First

Assistant Postmaster IIoHth which authorizes postmasters to issue money orders payable at then- own office. The new order is in the line of tbe postoffico savings bank of Canada, and affords a bank for careful people which is absolutely safe, as tho American government becomes responsible for the money on deposit. It will be a great accommodation to many people who, not having an account at a bank, desiie to follow this economical and absolutely safo method in payment of bills, etc. These money orders may now bo used, for illustration, in payment of gus bills, merchants' and grocers' bills, etc. In smaller places the person indebted to a farmer may have an order drawn in favor of

tho latter, payable to him at any timo and sent to him by a neighbor who obtains and delivers the mail for the neighborhood, the entire cost, say, for $10 being but 10 cents. It also enables persons to use tbe postoffice as a savings bank, as they can buy an ordor payable to themselves, and renew it at tho end of tho year if necessary. '

--Tho Bedford X Kay begins an article with the following breath-holding paragraph: "There seems to be an inclination in the human nature to take

up tbe defense for himself when'.

assaueu oy any one though they be less than the least of those who are not worth the notice of intellectual people and were it not for our strong belief in the biblical idea expressed in Soloman that to give heed to the council or talk of a fool is a waste of time, we would take up our pen in defense against the slanderous tongues which seems to be the source., jjpjf the poison darts which are thrown into the backs of innocent peoplet" Now will you be good 1. Saturday and Sunday night, at Greencastle, the fraternities put their novitiates to the test. . A lank aristocratic student of Indianapolis was hauled round town awhilo, then compelled to shine the shoos of prospective fraternity brothers for two hours. Other candidates for the mysteries were stationed on a track blindfolded and made te believe the fast trajn would strike them, but it whizzed by on a track nearby. Still others were dragged through a cold, muddy pond. Cow-itch, a weed that sets one wild with itching, was also used to develop stoicism in the candidate. The Betas and Phi Gams led in the pranks. The official naval casualty list of the war with Spain is only seventeen killed and forty-eight wounded, though there were numerous battles and thirty-five Spanish war-ships were destroyed. Jn no previous conflict were such im

portant results achieved with so small a loss of life.

TO

By injecting: M. & W. quick-repair cement through the puncture Into this Inner tube, and then pressing down on tbe tire with the thumb, like this.

the repair strip Inside Is picked Bp by the cement, thus closing the puncture.

like this:

Very simple, but now every rider should remember these two "buta," or he will fail: Before injecting cement, pump up the tire. If you don't, the inner tube will be flabby, like this.

and the cement will not get Inside of it, where the repair strip lies. When you have a puncture, get right oil. Kiding a tire flat, when it has a tack or nail in It, may damage it considerably.
