and seed will show profit of SIS 90 per

second year by an additional expense
of $12 600 for putting in another battery

be doubled. and profits also. After
running forty days on cane, the second
year it is proposed to run sixty days on
beets, thus making run of 100 days or
2, 400 hours. AS the profits from beets
are not as great as from cane, it will
require the extra twenty days run to
make the equivalent Of the forty
days run on cane, so that the
profits will be doubled the second
year, plus $4,000 for the additional
capacity of the factory. Taking out
only such dividend as is paid by the
general run of business 10 per cent,
the surplus profits will be sufficient
to put fully equipped factory for the
third year, and the profits of the two
will put up third the fourth year.
and in the fifth year, the fourth
factory will be running, and the four
factories will be able to supply the
whole quantity of sugar we now use.

As all the railroads are tired of the

liquor traffic until his party moved for
ward. But what has he said in his
speeches?
The Anti-Saloon Republican league is
distributing a document headed "Our
Candidates Views" From that document
we extract the following:
con the 9th of November, 1887, Gen.
Harrison delivered an address before the
Lincoln club of Danville, Ind, on the
issues of the day, and VIC print below
what he said on the temperance question.
In April last Gen. Harrison was asked to
send his views to be read at the second
Anti-Saloon Republican convention, held
at Cooper Institute, New York city, May
2 and 3, ard responded as follows:
DEAR SIR have no time this morn
ing to express myself upon the subject
presented by your letter, but l inclose
yoG :. copy of g speech made by me re.
Gently, in which the question is some
what discussed
The speech makes fifteen pages of
pamphlet, and is largely devoted to south
ern elections, tariff, pensions and trusts
as national questions, and makes one
page on benevolent institutions and two
pages on what is headed in the pamphlet
as the temperance question; and these
two subjects he treats as purely local
questions. Three-fourths of these two
pages is made up of arguments, asser-
lions and sneers against the third party,
the other fourth is mainly telling how
much better is the Republican party on
the temperance question than the Demo
cratic, and the only thing we can find in
the whole that in any way expresses an
opinion or commits himself on the subject
is the following words: eve have said in
our state platform that we were in favor
of clothing local communities with power
to act upon this question. There l stand
for one, today. Applause. I do not be-
lieve in state prohibition as the best
method of dealing with this question in
Indiana"
tits worthy of note that the Anti Saloon
league omits the last sentence of the
above, but Mr.. Harrison said it, neverthe-
less. And by that speech he asks to be
judged We do judge him, and the hon
est verdict of every good citizen must be
that on the Prohibition issue Mr.. Harri-
son cannot have the votes of his fellow
citizens.
On this issue Fisk and Brooks stand
four square, and every vote for them will
count vote to establish in law the

The ''Bool1 of Doctrines" of the Metho

been published, contains this article:
We approve the action of the lay cleo
roral conference of California, condemn
ing the raising and selling of grapes, for
the manufacture of fermented wines, and
think the time has come for broader ut
teranco upon the subject. We warn our
members against raising and selling, not
only grapes, but also other fruits, hops
and grain, for the manufacture of alco-
holic liquors, as inconsistent with the
Christian profession, benumbing to the
conscience and hurtful to the cause of
temperance and true piety. These prac-
tees bring the church into completely

Vote for What You Want.

If you want to run under any kind of
license system or rum without license,
the Democratic ticket will accommodate
you very well, as that party does not be-
lieve in any kind of sumptuary laws
which only ycX the citizen. By sumptu-
airy laws the Democrats mean temperance
laws.
If you want high license or an exceed
ingly thin local option law, then you will
be suited with the Republican ticket.
But if you are opposed to rumselling in
any and every form, then you want to
vote the Prohibition ticket.
If you vote the Democratic ticket you
will vote the same kind of ticket that the
Democratic rumseller in your neighbor-
hood will vote; do you want what he
wants? If so, you are right in voting the
same ticket that he votes.
If you vote the Republican ticket you
will vote the same ticket that tie Repub-
lican rumseller in your neighborhood
votes. If you want what he wants then
you want to vote the same ticket that he
votes, but if you want Prohibition, then
you want to vote the Prohibition ticket.
The names ON our ballots represent GER
tain principles, A ballot, therefore, can
not represent Prohibition and license at
the same time.
We ask the conscience voter, what do
you want? Do you want Prohibition, or
do you want high license rum or low
license rum?-Temperance Gazette.

The Prohibition party is the only party
in the nation that is practically in favor
of a free ballot and q fair count, and the
only party whose success will secure to
the country that inestimable blessing.
The Democrats are in favor of free
ballot-for those who vote the Democratic
ticket, and a fair count-of Democratic
ballots. The Republicans are in favor of
o free ballot-for those who vote the Re
publican ticket, and fair count-of Re
publican ballots. The Prohibitionists are
in favor of allowing every duly qualified
voter to deposit one ballot in peace, and
to have that ballot counted.

are less liable to recover from yellow

terrible scourge says: ut strikes persons
of alcoholic habits fatally. The fever is
of a very mild form. The mortality is
only about Is per cent, and taking out
the deaths of men addicted to the use of
alcoholic beverages the mortality would
not exceed per cent. Two-thirds of the
fatality is due to tho fact that persons
have been accustomed to the use of strong
drink before they are attacked by the
fever, and in every such case the patient
invariably dies and without reaction. 1t
