FRIDAY, JULY 25. 1902.
Of one thing we are pretty sure,
and that is that Uncle Grover will
never be “it” again.
The county campaign will soon
be in full blast, and promises to
be a rather lively affair.
No wonder the officers can’t
catch Tracy. The newspapers
have published 37 pictures of him
and no two of them are alike.
An exchange says the coal strike
lias cost $50,000,000. Well, what
of it f Congress cost twenty times
that much, and no one is kicking
very hard about that.
Census Director Merriam says
he can greatly economize the cost
of hiking the census. Hut can he
monkey with economy and con
tinue to be a royal arch republi
can i _________
Bryan and Cleveland should be
reminded that it doesn't take a
statesman to locate the blame for
past party mismanagement. Almost
any “squirrel headed” editor can
do that.
If the president is going to
swing 'round the circle simply to
mold public opinion he could save
time, money and trouble by hiring
that expert moulder, Mr. Thurber,
to do the job for him.
The Memphis News, in speaking
of democratic presidential timber,
very properly remarks: “That
statesman is wanted who will come \
forward, not to locate the blame
for the past, but to lay the plans
for the future. ” 1
The constitutional convention in
Virginia adopted a law prohibit
ing state officers from accepting ,
free railroad passes. It is not (
popular in the state at present, ,
but the papers outside the state .
seem to indorse it.
Some people seem to be natural
ly ailieted with a diarrhea of words
and constipation of ideas. So far ‘
as we know there is no remedy
for a chronic trouble of this kind,
but if the brain of persons thus
aflicted could be removed and the
vacuum filled with limburger *
cheese it would no doubt improve ^
their thinking qualities. At any
rate the substituted brain would ^
be stronger than the original.

Falls
“ I tried Ayer’s Hair Vigor to
stop my hair from falling. One
half a bottle cured me.”
J. C. Baxter, Braidwood, 111.
Ayer’s Hair Vigor is
certainly the most eco
nomical preparation of its
kind on the market. A
little of it goes a long way.
It doesn’t take much of
it to stop failing of the
hair, make the hair grow,
and restore color to gray
hair.

An exchange thinks Tracy, the
escaped convict, would have been
a great leader among men had his
early training been a little differ
ent. He seems to be a pretty
good leader any way; at least he
has managed to lead the officers a
merry chase.
And now Mr. Payne has been
repudiated by the republicans of
ins own state for the faithful per
formance of his task as the ad
ministration’s political leader.
Small wonder there should be un
easiness in the inner circles over
this Wisconsin revolt.
The man who hides himself to
east reflections on other people
and make assertions about “gall'’
find “elastic imagination” hasn’t
any “gall.” He is not only de
void of gall, but does not possess
the least particle of human princi
ple, and is a coward of the lowest
order. _
Republican national politicians
do not attempt to conceal their
disquietude over the action of the
republican state convention of
Wisconsin. Viewed in any light
there is small comfort in that ac
tion for the elements in control of
the party or for the national ad
ministration.

of a telephone message to Jno. Q.
Wolf, of Batesville, who, together I
with R. 1*. Weaver, M. C. Long
und (’. 1*. Vaughn, were the board
authorized to go over the returns,

that the ballots from Big Bottom

And don’t it look rather bad for '1
i white man of good moral repu-! i
ationand undoubted qualifications *

0 an appointive office and the 1
dace given a negro! We don't
dame “Doc." If a white man
md negro are candidates for the
ame official position and their
)usiness and educational qualifica
ions are equal we hold that the
vhite man lias been grossly wrong
’d if he is turned away and the
>osition given the negro. This is
1 white man's country and we be- t
ieve in letting the white man rule j

This samp J. E. Hash, “the ef- t

Hot, dry weather continued'

need of moisture. In some locali
ties it is wilting badly and shed
ding its forms rapidly. The dry
weather has checked the growth
of cotton. Early corn is made in
utmost all sections, but in a few
isolated cases another rain within
a tew days would till out the ears.
Generally, the prospects are fav
oiable for a large yield. The late
planted needs rain badly, it is be
ginning to twist and turn yellow.
Wheat and oat thrashing is about
completed and the yield of both
generally is below the average,
although iu some localities it has
turned out better than was antici
pated, both in quality and quanti
ty, Peac lies and summer apples
and grapes are lipening and are
being marketed ; peaches will not
be a* poor a crop as was expected
early in the season, but apples
continue to drop and the crop wil
be short and ot poor quality
Some second crop of Irish pota
toes are being planted. Uardei:

HlMBAliL PIANOS
The Triumph of Economy as Well
as of Art.
This combination Is the cause, and the important cause, of
the wonderful popularity of the Kimball Pianos and Organs.
35,000 per year are not sufficient to supply the demand, as
the Kimball Company is several thousand orders behind in
shipments and is planning further large additions to “The
Greatest Factory in existence.”
What else could create the prodigious growth which ‘ Ihe
Kimball” has attained, than that the instruments are the acme
of perfection and in the cost to manufacture and to sell are a
triumph of economy not possible to competition. The incon
sistency of prejudice and carping criticism must make way for
well-earned reputatiod and such advancing progress.
We solicit injuries of all kinds concerning Pianos and Organs
their prices, terms of payment or otherwise. V\ e will promptly
and satisfactorily serve every requirement.
