date from Kansas City, says:
The hot winds continued in
Kansas today, to the great injury
of the corn crop. Grain men
here have advices from the state
which lead them to believe that
only a half will be harvested now,
even under good conditions for
the rest ofthe season. Continu-
ance of the hot winds for two or
three days will still farther reduce
the yield. The Associated Press
has reports from various points
in the state on the condition and
prospects of corn. Following
are sample reports:
Coffeyville, Kan.,—Corn in very
bad condition. No rain has fallen
in two months.
Junction City—Hot winds all
day yesterday and considerable
damage must result.
Winfield—Drouth and hot
winds have settled the status of
the corn crop. With all rain pos-
sible not more than half a crop
can be raised.
Parsons—The corn crop is dam-
aged fully 50 per cent and is going
fast.

the Jack County Fair. Let
one talk anfl work for it.
A dispatch from Haymarket,
Virginia, July 29, says:
General Fields spoke for three
hours today at the Wellington
Alliance picnic in Prince William
county. He was replied to by
Col. J. R. Purcell, a farmer and
former representative in the state
legislature, in a fifty minute im-
promptu speech. At the conclu-
sion of Col. Purcell’s speech three
rousing cheers were given for
Cleveland and Stevenson.
That was a new idea to the
General, perhaps, to be replied to
by a farmer—one of the same
class whose cause they claim to
be championing so boldly with so
much ado. The better informed
the farmers become the less they
will follow the visionary financial
schemes which periodically sweep
over the country.
Hon. D. F. Goss of Seymour,
who is a candidate for state sena-
tor spoke in Jacksboro last Sat-
urday night on the issues of the
campaign. His address was sen-'

pressed himself as having faith
and confidence in the wisdom of

Corn is perishing under it.
Clay Center—Only half a crop
of corn is expected. Hot winds
destroying it.
El Dorado—Hot winds blowing
today. Corn badly damaged.
When the blizzards of next
winter sweep across the bare and
desolate fields of Kansas and what
will howl around the empty corn

There is a class of people in
every town and city who seem
to take special delight in not on-
ly bewailing their situation in such
places but also uttering continual
derogatory sentiments against the
locality, its people, its govern-
ment, and general lack of enter-
prise. It is a species of chronic
grumbling that seems to form the

Kansas Farmers and the
Homestead Strikers.
Dispatches from Kansas show
the farmers of that state to be a
curious mixture of fanaticism and
all other combinations. A dis-
patch from Lamed, Kansas, Aug.
8tb, says:
Officers of the Farmer’s Alli-
ance are authority for the state-
ment the Alliance has agreed to
famish the locked oat men
at Homestead flour enough to
feed them over their trouble with
the Carnegie company.
Another dispatch of the same
require a considerable degree of
skill and intelligence, have been
increasing; in other words, that
capital has been receiving year by
year a smaller percentage upon
the total proceeds of the product.
Of course, there are very many
and very conspicuous and aggra-
vating exceptions to this general
rule, bat they are all attributable,
in my opinion, to abnormal and
artificial conditions, created by
unequal and unjust tax laws and
by improper governmental inter-
ference with the private affairs of
people, discriminating in favor of
some and' against others. If all
be removed as they ought to be
removed, the universal rule in all
the most highly civilized and en-
lightened countries would un-
doubtedly be as I have stated it.
This tendency towards a decline
in the prices of commodities and
an increase in the rates of wages
is, in my judgment, the necessary
result of our improved methods
of production, transportation and
exchange. When the money cost
of production is decreasing and
the product of any given amount
of manual and intellectual labor is
increasing, the capitalist can very
well afford to receive a smaller
percentage of profit upon a larg-
er aggregate sum realized upon
his investment and pay to the
laborer a larger percentage upon
the product of his toil. When the
cost of production is increasing,
because of improved methods, it
is evident that both capital and
labor should be benefited and
that the consumers of their joint
products ought to be able to pro-
cure them at lower prices.
This, Mr. President, is what is
now going on, and for many years
has been going on, in all the great
industrial and commercial coun-
tries of the world, where the peo-
ple have been allowed to avail
themselves of the benefits result-
ing from the use of modern im
provements in production and
distribution, except in those cases
to which I have alluded, where
governments consider themselves
wiser than their people and adopt
policies and enact laws which in-
terfere with the free production
and distribution of commodities.
Whatever makes it easier for the
people to live decently and com-
fortably ; whatever makes the
necessaries of life which the peo-
ple are bound to buy and use
cheaper and less expensive to the
masses, is a blessing to mankind ;
and I have never been able to ap-
preciate the wisdom of that policy
which compels men to work long-
er and harder in order to procure
food, raiment and shelter for them-
selves and their families; I have
never been able to appreciate
either the economic truth or the
humanity of the proposition that
the people can be made happy
and prosperous by taxation, wheth-
er the purpose of that taxation be
to defray extravagant expendi-
tures on the part of the govern-
ment or to increase the prices
which the people pay for what
they eat, drink and wear.
Mr. President, anyone who
contends in this day, as the Sen-
ator from Nevada (Mr. Stewart)
apparently has this morning, that
high prices of commodities are
beneficial to the community at
large is at war with the spirit of
the age in which he lives, at war
with the genius of discovery and
invention, which during the last
half century, more than during
any other like period in the his-
tory of the world, has ameliorated
the conditions of mankind by
bringing all the necessaries of
life, and many of its luxuries, with-
in the reach of every man who is
willing to work. If high prices
are conductive to the general wel-
fare we ought to retrace our steps
and go back where our ancestors
stood a hundred years ago ; we
ought to dispense with the use of
steam and electricity, and cast the
whole burden of our great indus-
tries upon the shoulders of the
laboring men and women of the
country; we ought to destroy our
railroads aud telegraphs and go
back to the dirt road, the ox-cart
and the stagecoach of the past;
we ought to remove every form
of machinery from our shops and
factories and drive the mowers
and reapers and threshers from
our fields. In short, we ought to
undo everything which science
and art have done for the human
race, prohibit the application of
their marvelous discoveries and
inventions to the practical affairs
of life, and return to the most
A Stampede of Strikers at the
Duquesne Mills.
Homestead, Pa., Aug. 8.—The
strikers at Duquesne went to work
this morning. On Saturday night
Superintendent Morrison posted
a notice that all men who had ap-
plied for their old jobs would re-
port at the mill at 7 o’clock this
morning, that the mill would re-
sume at that hour. As 7 o’clock
approached the number of men
who had sneaked into the mill
yard through a roundabout way
reached 400. About sixty men
who are leaders in the sympathy
strike movement gathered on the
road near the mill gate and watch-
ed in moody silence the men going
into work. Finally the mill whis-
tle blew for 7 o’clock. At that
a large Irishman exclaimed in a
loud voice: “ Well, men, the jig is
np; we had better hustle for our
old places.”

is proverbial. It will not take se-

treatment is sufficient to drive it
to other and more hospitable lo-

quick to get away from unfavora-

of Texas furnishes striking and in-
