rROSTS IN MOUNTAINS OF THE FAR WEST
Oals in Shock Damaged by Pains. Condition
ft of • Corn Favorable. Cotton • is
Shedding in Central and
Eastern Districts.
Washington, Aug. 22. —Following Is
tin* Weather Bureau’s weekly summary
of the crop conditions:
While there has been an entire ab
sence of rain over a large part of the
country east of the Rocky Mountains
and droughty conditions are quite ex
tensively reported iu New England, over
much of the lower lake region, Ohio
and lower Missouri Valleys and West
ttulf Stakes, very heavy rains have
fallen in the Red river of the North
Valley, on the A’irginia and North Caro
lina coasts and over portions of the
Central Gulf States. In the Rocky
Mountain and Pacific Coast districts the
week lias been too cool with frosts, caus
ing some injury in mountainous sections
on the 15th and 10th. The report from
Ciilw. indicates that the week has been
generally very, dry, and that crops are
suffering seriously over the greater part
of the island.
In the principal corn States the sea
)sonable temperajturet and general ab
sence of nain have been favorable for
advancing the maturity of corn, the gen
eral condition of which crop is very
satisfactory, although late coni now
needs rain in portions of the Ohio and
Mississippi Valleys, in Oklahoma and
in some parts of Kansas and Nebraska.
Cutting of corn is now general in Kan
sas and has begun in Oklahoma.
Spring wheat harvest has been de
layed in the Dakotas, and Minnesota
by heavy rains, which have caused in
jury to stacked grain in the last named
State. Harvesting has also been inter
rupted by rains in Washington and Ore
gon. In the last named State wheat
in sacks and in shock, as well as stand
ing grain, is beginning to sprout, as the
result of unusual rains during the pa*t
two weeks.
In Minnesota, South Dakota and
Washington oats in shock have been
damaged by excessive moisture which
has also delayed the completion of
harvest
Over the Central and Eastern portions
of the cotton belt the conditions of cot
ton continues practically the same ns
■at the close of the previous week, rust
and shedding being prevalent. All le
ports show that cotton is opening raj id
ly, picking being in progress iu the ex
treme Northern districts. In Eastern
North Carolina the crop was damaged
by the high winds attending the late
hurricune. Drought is proving very
damaging to the crop in Oklahoma and 1
Texas, but the weather conditions have
been very favorable for picking, and
while an average yield is not expected
in Texas, the quality of -the staple is
good.
In Ohio tobacco is suffering from
drought, but in other tobacco States
the general outlook continues favorable.
Some damage, however, has lteen caused
by the high winds in North Carolina,
and moist weather has been unfavorable
for curing in Maryland. .
The general outlook for apples is not
encouraging, and iu some important ap
ple States the crop is very poor. The
most favorable reports are received from
Ohio, Indiana and Northern Illinois. In
New York early apples are plentiful, but
winter apples promise only about a half
crop.
While the weather for the past week
has been unfavorable for plowing, this
work has been unusually well advanced
under the favorable conditions of the
previous week.

Oman’s Appointment of a Negro Assist
ant Postmaster Fireely Resented.
Tampa. Fla., August 22.—Editor W.
C. Crum, of the Florida Republican,
was brutally beaten by white caps at
Peck last night. He is postmaster tit
that place and has been going out there
attending to the mail at night and re
turning to the city in the morning.
Some weeks ago he appointed Dan Mor
rison, ei colored man, his assistant so
that the office could have a man in
charge all the time.
Morrison was made to give up the of
fice by a committee of citizens who are
unknown, and Mr. Crum had to go out
and 1 attend to the office himself. Hast
night after lie had eoinpleited his work
lie started to a house he owns a short
distance away where he sleeps w hen
there.
ll<- was held up on the road by a
mob of masked men with guns who
made him dismount. He was tied with
a rope, hand and foot, and given a
brutal beating. He also sustained se
vere bruises about tl'.e head and should
ers from the kicks administered by the
mob. »
After they finished beating him they
cut off the whiskers from one side
of his face and applied carbolic acid
to the deep gashes on his naked flesh
made by the whipping. Mr, Crum does
not know who attacked him. The
mob threatened to kill him if he ever
appointed another negro assistant there,
lie has closed the office and will deliver
no mail to the Pee kites, and his resigna
tion has been accepted at Washington.

JUDGE LONGIN LEADS
THE CONTISr FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP
OF MISSISSIPPI.
Present Indications Point to the Fact that the
Bat h Will be Short and
Decisive.
Jueksom, Miss., August 22.—’Hie con
test for the Governorship of Mississippi
which is to la* decided at the Stale Con
vention tomorrow is at present in a very
indefinite state. Judge Longino’s
chances have brightened comshDernbly
since morning, and some very effectual
work among the uuimstrueted delega
tions was accomplished by his managers
during the day. Several attempts have
been made to organize a permanent com
bination among the followers of Judge
Critz. Major Vnrdeman and Judge Pow
ell. but iso far all haw resulted in
failure, each of the three named dis
playing a very marked independence of
the others. The present combination
holds good only during the work of or
ganizing the enwntion. and it will re
quire some very hard work to hold it
together after the chairman is named.
Jiiige Longino’s caucus tonight was
attended bv nearly 2,000 imhistriicted
delegatus and his campaign is being
managed with surprising smoothness.
The present indications are that the
contest will be short and decisive.

The Pure
Food Question
Is not a new question with ns. }
We have been advocating pure
food for more than a .‘.Oden y w ars,
and we are rejrieed to sut others
tatting it up. We like to see meu
of science taking hold of it and
showing people the necessity of
eating
Only Pure Food,
and demonstrating it by analyti
cal and other scientific tests, and
we think that everybody should
read Prof. Wither’s lecture on
this important question. We ad
vocate pure food buying and
pure food eating, in the only
practical way by buying and sell
ing only that which is pure.
Onr i>rices may not always be
the lowest, but they are as low
as the class of goods w y e deal in
can be bought at.
