WAsmnNOTON, May 31.-Senator Car- 1
lisle has written a letter in response to T.
Howard of Alabama, who requested the
senator's views upon a bill providing for
a system of government warehouses for
farm products, upon which products
treasury notes may be issued. The sena
tor after rehearsing the features of the
proposed sub-treasury plan and noting
thefact that the farmers themselves will
pay more than their fair share of the cost
of erecting the warehouse and that offl-
cers connected with them will be parti
sans of the administration in power, says:
"There are more than 2,800 counties in
the United States but not more than one
third of them, if that many, produce andl
sell annually more than $500,000 of wheat,
corn, oats, cotton and tobacco and not
more than one third of them could possi
bly avail themselves of this plan, if
adopted, for the bill provides that the
county in order to secure a warehouse
must produce and sell annually farm prod
ucts valued at $500,000; moreover, thi.
is a plan to enable unscrupulous specu
lators to take advantage of farmers pe
cuniary necessities and extortexhorbitant
prices for food from people who reside in
cities, towns, villages and from people
who reside in the country but do not own
these particular agricultural products.
SOME sERnOUS DA.GERS.
It is evident that no farmer willsubject
himself to the labor and expense of haul
ing his products to public warehouses and
to all the other charges which he must
pay for storage. for hauling and for tak
g care of them when he has barns
and granaries at home, unless he Is in
debt. In that event how can he redeem
- the products? In a great majority of
cases he will never be able to redeem,
but will be forced to lose 20 per cent of
his products or sell his warehouse re
ceipts for whatever he can get for them,
which will be very little.
SPIOULATORB WILL THRIVE ma
The senator points out that the farmers' dal
troubles will be a golden opportunity for far
speculators, whose agents will swarm all of 1
over the country ready totake warehouse
receipts from the embarrassed owners to
for merely a nomipal sum. The receipt
is simply of redemption, like a pawn
brokers ticket, and the farmer himself
being unable to redeem it will be forced
to dispose of it at any price offered. "I do wa
not," the senator says, "think that any by
co.naideahtesaummli a. Intelligent peoa
pie ln this country wiil unite WIi.eltsng
the government to establish a system res
which will compel them in a large number fee
o'caseto sacrifice products of their labor. ter
Senator Carlisle argued at some length fro
to show shat the plan proposed would
produce an annual expausion and con
traction of the currency, which would re
suit in absolutely destroying the market
upon which the farmer must depend for 0']
the sale of his crops and that cotton ye,
farmers, who are supporting the scheme, ca,
would be special sufsiferers because the Jol
plan in the writer's estimation would cal
close every cotton factory in the country.
sOUND DBMOORATIC DOOTRINE.
In conclusion Senator Carlisle says: "I
have thus given you as briefly as the na- of
ture of the subject would permit some of las
the reasons why I think the proposed tl
plan for the relief of the farmers would
be injurious instead of beneficial, net only the
to them but to all other people of the de
country but it would be unandid not to on
say distinctly before cloaing this commun- ca
ication that, even if it could be shown, thisn1
or any other similar scheme would be pe.
cuniarily beneficial to any particular class ki
of our people, I would still be unutter- is
ably opposed to its adoption because iu on
my opinion it would be but another wild to
dand dgerous departure from the prin
ciples upon which our political institu
tions are founded. It would be in fact
the longest step yet taken in the time of i
peace towards the consolidation of power
Sin the hands of federal government, and p
the subjection of the private affairs of cc
Sthe people to the supervision and control a
of central and irresponsible authority. to
You and I are democrats and as such we th
believe that the goverment should scrup- t
ulously abstain from all unnecessary in
terference with the personal and dlomes
tic concerns of Its citizens and confine it
self strictly to the administration of pub
t lc affairs. in

How the postofice business has grown
since 1886 when the Helena and
Benton coach would throw off a few bags
at the west side hotel and then proceed
on its way! In the winter months the
the mails would be sometimes three or
four days over due. Newspapers came
without much regard to regularity. The
contrast is striking between Mr. Beashly's
cosy postoiflce at that time and the spa
; clous quarters which Mr. Taylor now orc
cupies.

She Wan Not an Houri.
Number one on the list of wivesof the
I shah of Persia suffers fromn a cataract
in one of her eyes. She went to Vienna
recently for surgical treatment. A large
share of the population of the Austrian
capital assembled at the railway station
to catch a glimpse, on her arrival, of a
woman they fondly thought was en
dowed with all the charms of oriental
loveliness. Instead of a young and love
ly houri they beheld an infirm old lady
of 60 carried by elderly negroes from the
cars to a carriage. The royal eyes, it is
said, will recover their sharpness after
an operation.

that Emin chose the wiser part when he
decided to plunge anew into the African
forests instead of facing the welcome of
the civilized world. From the time he

Stanley was the magnet that attracted

TEN QUESTIONS
JOE -:- CONRAD
Would like to ask
THE -:- LADIES.
DO YOU LIKE:
1st. A Corset that tits you perfectly ?
2d. A Curvet that fits you easily
3d. A Corset that is flexible ?
4th. A Corset in which the bones will not break ?
5th. A Corset that is long waisted ?
lith. A Corset in which the steels will not break ?
7th. A Corset that gives you an elegant form ?
Sth. A Corset that is superior to imported gmoos ?
4th. A Corset that is free from imperfections ?
10th. A Coraet that you can buy at its value?
IF YOU DO
Then come and see the following choice line
of Corsets:
Dr. W arner's ?!rench Model (satin) ...... ......... .. ......... $3 0l
Dr. Warner's Health Nursing Corset .......... .. .................. 1 51)0
Dr. Warner's Health Corset.................. .. ...........1 25
Dr. Warner's 444 CorPAie Corset............... ....................... 1 25
Dr. Warner's Perfection Waists for ladies...................... 1
Dr. Warner's Extra Long Walsts .......... .. .. ... . .... I 00
Dr. Warner's Four-in-Hand................. .. .......... I 1)
Dr. Warner's (French model) 22 Corset ............ ............ 1 00
I Dr. Warner's Perfection Waists for Misses ..... ............... 73
If you give these Corsets a trial you
will have no further trouble about fit and
service. All corsets boned with horn or
reed will break. Corsets filled with cord
will not give proper support. All corsets
except Warner's are boned with either horn,
cord or reed. Dr. Warmer's are boned with
Coraline and they will no: break down.
THE BEST IS THE CHEAPEST
So try ona of Dr. Warner's Make.
