Reported that rich oil-bearing
springs have been discovered in
lower California.
Another out-break by the
Boxers in China is anticipated
by the Russian forces.
What is olaimed to be the beat
•il gusher in Kentuoky has been
struck near Barboursville.
It is reported that yellow fever
is becoming epidemic at points
south of Vera Cruz, Mexico.
Kansas farmers and grain
men are planning a trust to con-
trol the wheat grown in the
State.
The state of Pennsylvania has
52,000 manufacturing establish-
ments that pay out about $300,•
000,000 annually in wages.
It is stated that Uncle Sam
persists in his demand for the re-
moval of the friars from the Phi-
lippines, hence the negotiations
will be continued.
Kansas farmers are dragging
tramps from freight cars and
compelling them to work in the
wheat harvest fields, so great is
the soarcity. of labor in that
State.
Chas, M. Schwab, President
of the 8teel Trust, is to erect a
mansion on Fifth avenue, New
York. It is said the structure
will be the finest residence in the
city, and will cost over $3,000,-
000.
President Roosevelt has ap-
pointed Col. Wm. F. Cody, other-
wise known as "Buffalo Bill," as
buffalo warden for the Yellow-
stone National Park at a salary
of $150 a month. Col. Cody's job
will be to spend $15,000 in gath-
ering buffaloes for the park and
then seeing that they get good
care and increase in numbers.
THE POLITICAL BALANCE-WHEEL.
Farm and Ranch observes that
it is becoming quite common for
» certain class of writers to ad-
vise farmers to stay at home, at-
tend to their farming and leave
politics alone. This agrees so
perfectly with the selfish interests
of an uncertain class of politi-
cians that the inference is fairly
deducible that such advice to
farmers is inspired by them. It
will be a sad day for this country
when farmers cease to take an
interest in the political affairs of
the state or nation, and assign
politics to the politicians. An
engine of high power and great
epeed must have a heavy bal*
ance-wheel to equalize the mo-
tion, overcome dead centers, and
deliver the power in a steady,
controlled current. Professional
politicians, like a wild horse har-
nessed to a road-cart, are liable
to run away, kiok off the dash-
board, and tear the things to
pieces, and in doing so injurs
innocent passers-by. Farmers,
as a class, constitute the balance-
wheel of the political "machine"
we read so much about, and the
only team that is perfectly safe
anywhere and at all times. There
is no other really important class
of citizens who really want good
government. Every other busi-
ness wants special favors at the
hands of the law-makers; want
some advantage over produoers;
some means by which they can
levy tribute on others. Farmers
are just as selfish as others for
they are made of the same sort
of dust, but as their interests are
best served by just laws that af-
ford no special advantages to
anybody, they favor such laws.
As their interests are as great,
or greater, than those of any other
class, they have, to say the least,
as much right to demand partial
and unjust lawB for their especial
benefit. Farmers, should, of
course, attend to their farms;
but as government is a part of
their business also they; should
attend to that, too. There is a
large and influential portion of
our population who would be
very glad if farmers generally
would cease to meddle with poli-
tics, and turn the whole thing
over to the peouniary politician.
A writer in an Alabama pa-
per says that with the establish-
ment of the large packing houses
at Fort Worth, that all the State9
bordering on Texas will be
largely benefited, and that
eattle and hogs will receive
more attention from farmers
than heretofore. To receive
the full benefit of this stock
market, forage crops must be
largely grown. With large corn
cropB and our regular output of
cotton seed, supplemented by
grass, both green and cured,
meat stock can be made profit-
able anywhere in the South,
though Texas and the StateB ad-
joining will have to spread the
infeotion.

The new pistol law recently en-
aoted by the State of South Car-
olina, which took effect July 1st,
reads as follows: "It shall be
unlawful for anyone to carry
about his person, whether con-
cealed or not, any pistol less than
twenty inches long and three
pounds in weight, and it shall be
unlawful for any person, firm or
corporation to manufacture, sell
or offer for sale, or transport for
use or sale in this state, any pis-
tol of less length or weight. Any
violation of this section shall be
punished by a fine of not lees
than $100 or imprisonment for
not more than thirty days, and
in case of a violation by a firm
or a corporation it shall forfeit
the sum of $100 to and for the
use of the school fund of the
county wherein the violation
takes place, to be reoovered as
other fines and forfeiture."
The New York Herald says:
Over the perfunctory eervices of
the last day of Congress hung a
gloom, which was not dispelled
by the singing on the floor of the
House of Speaker Henderson's
favorite song, "There Is a Hole
in the Bottom of the Sea." The
Republican Representatives who
departed to their homes seemed
to feel, many of them, aa if the
hole in the bottom of the sea was
for them. 4 * Everybody now
concedes that tha Congressional
election this fall will be fought
out on the issues of the trusts,
Congressional extravagance and
Cuban reciprocity.
It is proposed to build a wire
fence seven hundred miles long
on the boundary line between
Montana and Canada. The
necessity for this huge under-
taking arises from the fact that
several weeks ago a large num-
ber of cattle that strayed into
Canada from this State were
•eized by the Dominion officials
on the ground that they had been
smuggled. The fence will prob-
ably be built jointly by the
Canadian and American govern-
ments, and will cost several
thousand dollars.
TEXA8 PRESS OPINION.
Richard Sellers and wife, who
have been in the city several
days, left for home Friday. Mr,
Sellers will make an experiment
feeding steers in warm weather.
He will put on feed about the
25th inst. at Gonzales fifty head
of steers, which will be fed meal
and hulls. "I have always heard
that it was a dangerous propo-
sition to tackle," said he to an
Express representative, Friday
morning. "But I have fed pens
with plenty of shade, and desire
to make the test for my own sat-
isfaction," Mr. Seller's experi-
ment, if suoh it may be called,
will be watched with interest, not
only by feeders, but by stock-
men generally,—San Antonio
Express.

In an interview at Dallas the
other day ex-State Treasurer W.
B. Wortham said he was going to
Galveston to work for Jim Wells
for state chairman and confi-
dently asserted that Wells will be
re-eleoted. With all due respeot
to Mr. Wortham, it is difficult to
conceive how the chairman can
get enough Mexican sheepherd
ers in the convention to overcome
the|almost unanimous sentiment
now existing against him because
he ignored the demands made in
the last democratic platform.

CONSTIPATION

allow themselves to become and remain consti-
pated. They apparently do not know tliat thia
condition poisons the entire system. Not imme-

sonous impurities accumulate they attack the vital
