Encouraging Reports OF the Governors
of Dakota and New Mexico

WAsHrNGToS, Oct. lei. X. Church,
Governor of Dakota, in his annual report
says there has been gain in the population
of the Territory during the year of 72,746,
in a total population of GAO 1913. The guam
tity of land newly filed Oh and purchased for
settlement during the year was $500, 900
acres. An awakened interest in all that per-
tains to education, an increased number of
pupils in the higher and special schools, with
a marked tendency toward one general sys-
TEN of schools for the Territory, is mentioned
with approval. The report recommends that
Congress authorize the rental of school lands
Governor incloses the report of +. b. Car
penter, of the school Of mines, which states
that the mining industry of the Black Hills
is taking on new life. As to the discovery of
tin in the Black Hills, the Governor remarks
that there is not to-day producing tin mine
nor pound of Dakota tin in the markets
The Governor recommends the passage by
Congress of law enabling him to veto items
of app opriation in a bill and approving such
as are unobjectionable. He also suggests
that authority be given to convene the Leg
islature in special session when the intere sts
of the Territory demand it, The Governor
renews his recommendation that the law pre-
venting aliens from acquiring extensive
tracts of land be amended so that capital
lists or money corporations can loan money in
the Territory on land, and in case they be-
come owners, to be allowed a certain time in
which to dispose of it. In conclusion, he
again urges that Dakota be admitted as a
State into the Union.
Governor Ross, of New Mexico, reports
creased during the year about 10 900. The
aggregate value of the taxable property in
the territory is given as SAB, ISL 500 Of
this amount sl5,370 $50 is on live stock,
s. ,446, 500, on lands and Sc, s5S, $50 on
houses and Improvements. Three hundred
and eighty four thousand acres of land have
been entered during the year by settlers
The progress made in agriculture during the
year, the report says, is very marked, and
substantial progress has been made in edu-
catonal interests.
Edward A. Stevenson, Governor of Idaho,
estimates the population of that territory at
about 100, 900. The value of taxable prop
erty is given at S2l .2SS, 1892 which his re-
port saws is less than one-half of its actual
value in cash. About ACC, 900 acres of pub
lie land have been entered during the year

All the squirming and wriggling of the
Democratic leaders about the Sugar Trust
are utterly without avail, for the facts and
and the record are againstthem. The broad
side Of Mr.. Blaine at Goschen and the
declarations Of Republican Congressman
have had fatal result to all Democratic
charges and professions on the subject.
IL il very obvious that the less the Free
Traders have to say about the Sugar Trust
the better il will be for them. The ma
jority Of the Mills Committee. in their
original report to the House. made the
following allusion to the classification of
sugars:
''We have extended the first class from
No. Is to No. Is, Dutch standard of color.
The sugars between Nos. IL and Is are
grades of brown sugars which can 20 into
consumption without refining. and consumers
may protect themselves against trusts and
combinations by purchasing these grades OF
imported sugars when the price of the re-
fined sugar is put up and kept up by organ
lied trusts Of the domestic manufacturers.
Here, a. the Boston journal well SAYS
1.-THE purpose of this extension is strictly
stated. 1t was that the consum-
ers might be able to use
the intermediate grades between Nos. II
and l6 without refining, and might thus
be able to ''protect themselves agains,
trusts and combinations. Why was not
the classification thus referred to, and
which vas TO accomplish these results, re-
tanned 10 the Mills billt To this plain
question Mr.. Mills, Mr.. Breckenridge and
the rest make no reply. But the simple
fact il that between the time when the bill
was reported and the time when the
change in the sugar classification was
made, Mr.. Havemeyer, the head of the
Sugar Trust, had visited the room of the
Committee on Ways and Means, and haC
conyersed with certain of the Democratic
members Of that committee. What he
told them, what he promised them, OF
what they promised him no one outside OF
the persons concerned knows, but the co
inciNeucc OF tline ana the character OF tnt
changes made Justify the conclusion that
the committee modified its schedules tt
accommodate the manipulators of the
Sugar Trust. The equivocal after state
ments OF Mr.. Mills and Mr.. Breckenridge
cannot shake this conclusion in the minds
of the people. It is indeed the only con.
clusion which offers "A reasonable explana.
ton of the facts"
The two main facts implied by the terms
of the Mills bill relative to sugar, stand
out strong and indisputable. They are,
that the high duty is retained to accom-
modate the Democratic sugar planters of
the South, and that its specifications were
drawn corresponding to the wishes and
interest of the Sugar Trust. Just in what
form manager Havemeyer made known
his terms to the Democrats of the Ways
and Means Commtte is of secondary inn
portance.

FREE TRADE OR NOTHING.

So long as Colonel Henry WatteFSOn goes

from his editorials in The Louisville Courier

a Warning.

The modes of deaths approach are various,
and statistics show conclusively that more
persons die from diseases of the Throat and
Lungs than any other. 1t is probable that
everyone, without exception receives vast
numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system
and where these germs fall upon suitable soil
they start into life and develop at first slowly
and are shown by slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue their
ravages they extend to the lungs producing
Consumption and to the head, causing Ca
tarrh. Now all this is dangerous and if al
lowed to proceed will in time cause death.
AT the onset you must act with promptness;
allowing cold to go without attention is
dangerous and may lose you your life. As
soon as you feel that something is wrong with
your Throat, Lungs or Nostrils obtain a
bottle of Boschee's German Syrnp. 1t will
give you immediate relief.

Boothbay.
Mr., Luther Maddox has factory in this
town in which he cans from so to IS barrels
of herring daily. At this factory are employed
from 40 to so hands, and the daily amount
put up is about 10000 cans. His factory is
a model for convenience there being at low
water depth of Is feet at end of wharf,
with ample room. The first building used
for cutting room, where the fish are cut,
washed and iced. A rail road and car runs
from this building to the packing room in the
front building, where the fish are packed
into the cans, soldered, then submitted to
steam cooking and resealing. In the second
story the cans are made, and those sealed are
secured and labelled. In the third story the
cases are being manufactured. The firm of
S. Nickerson < Sons have feet of nine
vessels and they have landed there for this
season $500 quintals of cod alone. Added
to this the firm purchased the catch of others
to the amount of ) 800 quntals. In the cur
ing of these fish five yards are used three being
on Southport, one on Sawyers Island, and
the one u, their own home stand. They have
control os the Alewive Privileges at Damaris-
Gotta Mills, Waldoboro and Warren, and last
spring from these privileges packed 270O
barrels. They are also engaged in the pack
ing of herring, and more extensively than
any other firm having already sailed 5000
barrels, with a reasonably certain prospect of
putting up 2000 barrels more before the sea-
son closes. Employment is given to about
1875 men from April LIST to Oct. LIST. and the
balance of the year about so. The volume
of their business this year will reach Sl75 900

Free Trade Illustrated.

Eight years ago large part of the nickel
used in this country was made at Phenixville,
Pa, BY Joseph Wharton. The duty at that
time was 50 a pound, and Mr.. Wharton
eould produce it at So pound. and sell it
for "a pound. Nickel was put on the free
list, and as Germany could manufacture it at
SO pound, Mr. Wharton had TO shut down.
Nickel Immediately rose TO 81 pound, the
price it had been before duty was taken off.
and as il continued at that figure, Mr.. Whar-
ton again commenced manufacturing.
Nickel at once dropped down to price that
be could not reach, and again he had to shut
down. This little game would have contin-
ued indefinitely, probably, if Mr.. Wharton
had continued, but, as he was bound TO lose
he withdrew. What are the results? Nick

was taken off, Mr.. Wharton's works are
