HEADQUARTERS AT ST. LOUIS. . Plutocracy is Alarmed at the Growth of j the Reform Forces. j THI INDEPENDENT VOTIR IK THI j BJKDDLrE FOR HIS RIGHTS. J

The result of the republican national convention is before the country. It is the first time that any party in the Unitea States has made An unequivocal declaration in favor of the gold standard. The republicans have abandoned the West and hope to make good their loss in that section by securing the support of border states like Kentuckey, and West Virginia. They cannot depend upon a single state west of the Mississippi, river. All these states, from now on, belong in the Populist column. The address recently issued by the bolting republicans was followed by a similar address by a number of representative Populists from the Mississippi Valley states who had gathered at St. Louis during the republican national convention. The address outlines the opportunity for a union of all the forces opposed to the gold standard and expresses the individual opinion of its signers as to the duty of Populists under existing conditions. Cyclone Davis is campaigning in Arkansas at present. His meetings are largely attended and many free siiver democrats are-being converted to Populism. Capt. C. A. Power, one of the most effective speakers in the reform ranks, can be secured for a list of Western or Southern appointments on very reasonable terms. Applications should be addressed to him at Terre Haute, Indiana. Dr. J. J. Mott, chairman of the national executive committee of the free silver party has established head-quarters at the Lindell hotel in St. Louis, preparatory to arranging for the silver convention July 22. E. Taylor, of Edwardsville, Kans., a delegate to the national convention of the People’s party, "writes: ‘ ‘There will be one vote in that convention for a union of all the anti-gold forces, under Teller or someone else.” Chas. E. Palmer, writing from Pittsfield, 111., says: “There is trouble in the republican camp. If this locality is an indication of the feeling elsewhere the stampede to Teller will be a sight fit for the Gods to wituess. Tho business tnen are coming our way and I feel very much encouraged.” H. L. Brian, chairman of the Louisiana state committe, reports that the Peoples party trippled its vote in that state at the recent election. Wm. P. Huddleston, of Arkansas, says that state is opposed to Bourbon democracy, if the voice of the people could be heard. The people are oppressed financially, which makes it hard to inaugurate a lively campaign. But, notwithstanding all drawbacks, the cause of reform is making rapid growth in that state.

It is authoratively reported Pierpont Morgan, conspicuous in the late bond deals has recently beerrto Europe to secure funds to carry on a political campaign in America—for the gold power of cqprse. The People’s party of Eureka Springs, Ark., passed resolutions last week endorsing the action of Senator Teller in bolting the republican party and pledging their support in case of his nomination by our party at St. Louis. Editor M. E. Dittman, of the Redding. California, Searchlight, says; “I consider the bureau news letter excellent and of great value in showing the growth of reform all over the country. Old party “heelers” say we are dead, but the remarkable exhibition given by the corpse in Oregon will do much to help us carry California in the fall.”

There are nineteen straightout Populists in the Louisiana legislature. Andrew E. Lee, of Clay county, S. D., who was strongly spoken of as a possible Populist nominee for governor, has declined to make the race, owing to entanglements of private business. Delegates from Michigan to the Free Silvor convention at St. Louis will be chosen by mass convention at Lansing. The purpose of the convention is also announced to be the completion of the organization of a free silver party in Michigan. It is expected that when the right time comes Mayor Pingree will be found at the head of the new party. During June Kansas was pretty thoroughly stumped by J. S. Coxey. Leo Vincent and F. S. Pulliam are being urged by the Oklahoma papers as deserving of the .Peoples party nomination for congress. Ten prohibitionists in one township near Lyndon, Kan., have announced themselves as Populists since the split in their national convention. Populists and democrats of •the Second congresssional district of Kansas have united on M. S. Peters, a firm Populist, as candidate for congress. Populists of the Fifth congressional district of Illino i s have instructed their delegates to place Eugene V. Debs in nomination for president and to /‘vote for him first, last and all the time.” C. O. Sherman, organizer of the American railway union, was nominated fpr congress by acclamation. George M. Munger is the favorite of the Populists of Greenwood county, Kan., for governor. The Eureka, (Kan.) Union is dead set upon the Populists 'nominating Judge Caldwell. The Populists of Gentry county, Mo. , voted to place a plank urging direct legislation at the hand of the national platform. Populists in Washington evidently believe in the referen dum. M. P. Bulger, chairman of the state central committee, has submitted to a vote the questions as to when and where the next state convention shall be held and determining what are the “fundamental principles of

the Omaha platform.”

The Hand Separator.

During the past few months numerous comunications to this station indicate that Indiana farmers are becoming much interested in the use of hand separators on the farm. Many wish to know if it will pay to buy such a machine, to replace hand skimming of milk. The hand separator consists of a small metal bowl, which is revolved with great rapidity by means of cog wheel connections. Milk turned into the bowl separates into skim milk which accumulates in the outer portion of the bowl, and cream, which gathers near the center. After the separation in the bowl, the cream and skim milk escape from it, through outlets into sep arate tubes, from which they are conducted into cans. This action of separation is continuous so long as the bowl is revolving at suitable speed. Separators are now commonly sold on tbe market, that do sat isfactory work, practically removing all of the butter fat from the milk. On the average farm, probably every 100 pounds @f skimmed milk secured by the old fashioned methods, contains from one-fourth to one-half pound of fat. More is left in the milk than farmers are often

aware of. The properly run separator removes nearly all. if not all of this. The writer believes that every person who keeps five or more cows, with the object of making as much butter from them as possible, who makes gilt edge butter, and who is interested in progressive dairying, would find in the hand separator a mon eymaking machine. Other people are likely to be disappointed. if they buy a hand separator. The following are some of the important arguments in favor of this separator: It effectually skims the milk, thereby saving all the cream or fat. Where impurities have fallen into the milk, such as hairs, dirt, manure, etc., the separator removes them, so that their influence on the cieam is much diminished. In summer, separator cream is free from milk curds, which often occur in cream ' skimmed by hand and cause trouble in butter making. The separator is also a labor saving device when one bocomes familiar with its use and care. The necessity for caring for many pans and for many cans is done away with in a large degree. There are several excellent forms of separators on the market. Prices vary according to size and make, ranging from $65. up, for first class machines. For the above price, a machine can be bought that will seperate 175 pounds in an hour. A popular and standard size, which sells for $125.00, will skim 350 pounds of milk per hour. Such a machine is used at this Station and gives perfect satisfaction. The amount of force required to turn a hand separator is not great enough to tire an average man seriously. The use of the tread power is, however, becoming extensive. Small dogs are made, selling for $150.00 or so. that are used for »running hand separators, and a larger tread power, suitable for small bulls or ponies, also used. C. S. Plumb, Director. Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station.

Every township ought to be organled at once. A man may he a hero one day, and i coward the next. Labor unions cannot be kept out of politics any longer. The greatest need of this country is a party of principles. The people are awake and there will be no fusion or sidetracking. The people have lost all hope of reform through the old parties. i This is one of the years when you should vote your principles. The people prefer government paper money to either gold or silver. No longer any doubt where McKinley and the republican party stand. The best kind of practical politics is to go to w-erk and educate the people. No man can be a true populist until he quits being fooled by the old parties. It is mainly the men who spend their money in Europe who are benefited by a gold standard.

Marvelous Results.

From a letter written by Rev. J. Gunderman, of Dimmondale, Mich., we are premitted to make this extract: “Ihave no hesitation in recommending Dr. King’s new Discovery, as the results were almost marvelous in the case of my wife. While I was pastor of the Baptist Church at Rives Junction she* was brought down with Pneumonia succeeding La Grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing would last hours with little interruption and it seemed as if she could not survive them. A friend recommended Dr. King’s New Discovery; it was quick in its work and highly satisfactory in results.” Trial bottles free at Frank B. Meyer’s Drug Store elugßar size 50c. and SI.OO.
