Caldwell, Texas, December 6,1907.
Since the Sixtieth Congress
convened it is practically con-
ceded tbat Bryan will have no
opposition for the demorcratic
nomination next year. The
chances for his leading- the
party to victory on the third ef-
fort are brighter than on either
previous occassion, for the peo-
ple have seen the very meas-
ures advocacy of which ac-
complished his defeat appropri-
ated and some of them put into
practice by the republican party.
Bryan and tariff reform ought
to appeal to the whole country.
Congressman Gaknek has in-
troduced a bill in congress to
reimburse those citizens of
Brownsville who suffered dam-
age by reason of the outbreak
•f the negro soldiers who were
stationed there last year. The
property damage in thia case
waa not great Nothing can be
done to restore his good right
arm to the chief of police of
thst city, who bad it shot off by
the raiders. No bill tbat might
be introduced will restore
to life the mere boy who was
ruthlessly murdered by the
black marauders, and it occurs
to the Nkws-Chkonici.k tbat the
time of a statesman could be
better employed in the service
of bis constituency than in the
introduction of such bills as the
one mentioned. There is no
real goo<* to come of its passage,
should by any chance it ever
paaa, and its consideration con-
sumes time that abould be de-
voted to more important mat-
ter .
E. H. Hahriman has found it
cheaper to buy 500,000 tons of
steel rsils abroad than at home,
yet our home made rails are
carried to the same foreign
markets that these foreign-made
rails sell in and oftentimes sold
for less. For the reason tbat
American made goods do not
pay import duty when bought
in Europe and brought back
here, there are a number of
things that can be had cheaper
by bringing them across the
ocean than by buying them direct
from the manufacturers at home.
Still the republican party hesi-
tates over a revision of the tariff.
Beyond a doubt one of the ob-
jects of the recent money panic
was to blind tbc mass of the
people to the crying necessity
along tbia line, by concentrating
their attention on the currency
question. If the tariff revision
is passed up by the administra-
tion it means that tbc chances
for a democratic victory next
year are atrengtbened.
The mistrial entered in the
case of Kufus Williams at San
11111 .. m
Antonio thia weak provokes the
reflection thst the man who aaid
"hell bath no fury like a woman
acorned," uttered a great truth.
Here was s middle sged woman
who conceived an unholy affec-
tion for a man who bad a wife
and children; whose lines were
cast in pleasant places. Being
a woman of some means, her
first step was to get the object
of ber passion to manage ber
property, which she converted
into negotiable exebaoge, and
then proposed tbat be go with
ber on a prospecting and pleas-
ure trip. They traveled, and
finally landed in San Antonio.
The liason grew tiresome, un-
bearable. The man took the
$61,000 placed it in a satchel,
after knocking the woman down,
and started to leave tbe city.
The police arrested bim before
he got away. A jury of bis
peers failed to convict bim on a
charge of assault to murder.
Still be will have now to stand
another trial, and to defend a
personal damage suit as well.
Everything in ber power will be
done by this woman now to
punish tbc man who, through
tbe influence she exerted over
bim, deserted wife and children
on her account.
Good Advice.
Drowtiwood Bulletin.
The person most to be pitied
is tbe one who in tbe face of re-
verses and hard times, just lays
down and refuses or fails to
plan for tbe future. Tbe thing
to do is for every one to get to
work for another year with tbe
same confidence tbat baa always
characterized the people of this
couotry. In fact every one
ought to work even harder than
ever before and be more care-
ful in tbe planning. Most peo-
ple are doing tbia, and probably
never before in tbe history of
tbe country has farming been
in sucb an advanced atage. Tbe
grain acreage is unusally large
when tbe high price of seed is
considered and much more will
be sown within tbe next month.
Tbe farmer who has bis entire
place made ready early for tbe
next crop wil! get tbc advantage
of tbe winter rains and will have
bis crop half cultivated before
it ia planted. Whatever you
are doing, get to work for an-
other year as though there bad
been no short crop or financial
panic and in a few months this
flurry will probably have been
forgotten.
The number of people who suffer
from stomach trouble is beyond tell-
ing*. Often, too, it ia the strongest
and most robust who suffer ia this
war- Joseph Murphy, 1726 W. Mar-
ket St., Indianapolis, Ind., was so
afflicted and for years tried every,
thing, but he was not cured until he
took Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, the
great herb laxative compound, which
also cures constipation, indigestion
and all liver and bowel troubles. It
ia absolutely guaranteed to do what ia
claimed, and if you want to try it be-
fore buying, send your address for a
free sample bottle to Pepsin Syrup

The Manufactured Panic Fails.
Atlanta Journal.
Tbe true inwardness of tbe
recent financial crisis has now
become known and no doubt re-
mains in the minds of those who
are familiar with the 'acts tbat
tbe "panic" was shrewdly and
deliberately manufactured in
New York.
It was an organized assault on
tbe Roosevelt administration,
and the policies it represents,
cooked up by the New York
bankB to bring about demorali-
zation and embarrassment. As
the inside facts become known
if is apparent tbat it was the
deepest and most despicable
conspiracy ever entered into by
tbe financial interests of New
York.
The public is already familiar
witb some of the aspects of the
situation. We know tbat long

perous condition it baa enjoyed
for years. And yet such is the
plain, simple fact.
It is the story of the fight
that failed, and the New York
conspirators* are covered wilh
contumely.
That the shrinkage in value*
will continue for soine little i
time to come in not only natural,
but inevitable. At the «..une
time it is equally certain that
the worst of the stringency is
over. Money is beginning to;
reach the we-t with which to
move the grain crop, and in u
short time it will be coning
south to move the cotton crop.
As soon as the latter movement
is well under way we may ex-
pect to see the price of cotton
advance materially and business
in general resume its normal
conditon.
There is every reason to in-
dulge a more hopeful feeling
and to consider the worst of the
"panic" over.
At the same time the country
in general will not soon forget
tbc Wall Street conspiracy.

safeguarded their deposits by
issuing clearing house certifi-
cates, long after the government
bad deposited millions of dollars
in tbe financial capital, long
after gold had begun to flow in
from Europe,the New York banks
persisted in tbeir refusal to send
money to tbe south and west
for tbe purpose of moving the
cotton and grain crops, or even
to permit tbe banks of those
sections to withdraw tbeir own
money. Tbe New York con-
spirators, beot upon breaking
tbe strength of tbe federal ad-
ministration, and determined
upon a policy of reaction, held
tbe situation in tbe hollow of
tbeir bands.
Up to tbat point tbey seemed
to bold tbe winning cards, and
appeared to be in a fair way to
embarrass tbe administration.

CM in Lumber Prices.
San Antonio, Texas, Dec. 2.—
Local lumber dealers announce
a cut in prices of an average of j
$2.50 per 1000 feet on common
grades of lumber. It is believed
that the price will go lower.
The common grade lumber has
been about $27.50 per 1000 feet1
and has been reduced to $25. ¡
This will reduce tbe price of
the lumber used in buildings'
about 10 per cent, and will be a
big incentive to building activity

came like a bolt from the blue.
Tbe Wall street conspirators
were not expecting any such
flank movement, and it knocked
tbem in a beap.
Tbeir first move was to try
to discredit these securities.
Tbey attempted to cast doubt
upon tbe legality of tbe certifi-
cates of indebtedness, if not
upon tbe Panama boods. But
tbe legality of tbe issue was
promptly established and the
willingness of the country to
subscribe for tbe securities was
promptly demonstrated.
A wave of confidence swept
over tbe whole country. Tbe
tension wbicb had existed in
financial circles for tbc past
three weeks immediately began
to relax and the business of the
country began to assumes more
hopeful aspect.
Tbis improved feeling has
gone on gathering strength
every day since the announce-
ment of tbe new issue was made
and tbe result is that in well in-
formed circles the feeling pre-
vails tbat the stringency is
practically over. It was a ques-
tion as to whether the banks
would go to the president or
the president would go to the
banks—and it was the latter who
bad to knuckle under.
It is difficult to find language
in which to describe thedepravity
of the financial interests in New
York which, in furtherance of
the policy of reaction against
tbe administration crusade, was
willing to strangle the commer-
cial interests of the whole coun-
try and bring oo a period of de-
moralization at a time when the
country itself, substantially con-
try for lumber.
