A dispatch from Washington, Oct.
says: Secretary Foster will have to
ask Congress for a deficiency appro-
priation to pay the sugar bounties
authorized by the Mckinley act, in
spite of the fact that s1O,O0O,OOO was
appropriated for the sugar bounties
by that act.
All the money appropriated will go
to pay the claims already presented to
the internal revenue bureau by the
cane and maple sugar producers.
In addition claims are beginning to
come in from the beet sugar produc-
ers, headed by demand from Cali
fornia for S1OO,OOO These beet sugar
claims were not estimated or appro-
priated for, and will compel demand
for deficiency appropriation. There
will be lively debate over it when it
comes up in Congress.

The political contest is waxing
warm and high in New York. The re-
publicans have such a tremendous
grip this time that their chances are
two to one of carrying the day at the
vote in November. The battle is real
ly between Tammany and the rest of
the state, and were it not for the anx-
iety of democratic leaders about the
the results of this election on the
next presidential campaign, there
would not be so much as a grease spot
left in November of the Tammany
party. This is the way Fassett put it
at Ithaca the other day: eve are not
fighting the democratic party. We
are fighting the Tammany Hall demo-
Gratis, who drove the Cleveland demo-
Gratis and all other respectable demo-
Gratis out of the party at the democrat
ic state convention. The great forces
of the commonwealth are working
against that corrupt political organ
ization known as Tammany Hail.

James Parton, the historian, died at
his home in Newburyport, Mass, on
Saturday morning, the 18th inst He
was born in Canterbury, England, Feb.
9, 1922, and came to this country in
1926. When about twenty he became
connected with the editorial corps of
the New York Home Journal, and was
soon employed in the making of
books and writing of essays upon all
possible themes. One of his first
books was ''Life of Horace Greeley"
Other books, besides essays, sketches,
and literary discussions in reviews
and magazines, followed thick and
fast. One of his best books is the ac-
count of General Buffers reign in New
Orleans Parton was just the man to
write up this story, and he performed
his task remarkably well. His more
pretentious works, such as the Life of
Aaron Burr, of Jackson, of Voltaire
are not entitled to the same praise.
One of the best things Parton ever
wrote was his sketch of James Gordon
Bennett in the North american ReUieuU.

The czar of Russia has given 3,OOO,
coo roubles from his own private purse
to the famine fund, and has issued an
appeal to the members of the nobility
and landed gentry to form another
fund for the relief of the famishing
people.
1t is reported Jew batting and anti
Jewish riots have occurred at Tcheri-
gof, and that matters grew so bad
there that the troops had to protect
the Jews from the violence of their
prosecutors. The mob, in its hatred
toward these people, were animated
by the belief that the Jews had caus-
ed the scarcity of grain which has
created so much distress.

women in Boston who are eligible
voters as men, yet 125, 900 men have
qualified themselves to vote on the
school question against the Omlnously
small number of 900 women. That
is to say, only one woman in eighty
four displays an active interest in the
matter this year. Two years ago,
during the excitement growing out Of
the attempted sectarian control OF the
schools, over 5000 women voted.
This is an 'off'' year in school politics
and the women are apathetic. If the
men should display corresponding un-
concern popular suffrage would be
Justly regarded as a failure. The dis
position to stay away from the cleo
ton when party feeling is not running
high is always a dangerous symptom
in a free government. The women in
Massachusetts do not seem to value
vote for it's own sake as much as the
leaders Of the woman suffrage move
ment have been teaching the public
to believe for many years, when
they fail to vote while the right is new
and the experience novel. Longer
possession of the privilege may cheap

WOmen's rapid advance in the bus
mess world is illustrated by the fact
that some of the New York banks do
a very large business with women
One of them, the Fifth Avenue Bank,
is known as the "Women's Bank"
though of course it has many men de-
positors. OF its 80, ,220, 900 of deposits
over two-thirds represent the money
of three thousand female customers.
The bank finds the business very
profitable. the officers say that it
does not take women long to under
stand the routine of bank business.
Indeed a former cashier of the bank
asserts that women become more ex-
merit in business than men.

There are many methods Of feeding

writers Of late have disapprored Of
using chopped hay and straw but

pounds OF wheat bran and two pounds
OF bran meal well mixed; three pecks
Of this may be given twice each day
besides quantity OF hay. This meth
cd will be found much more beneficial
than the system adopted by many Of
giving the roots separate from the
meal and chat especially for mich
cows.
Another method may be successfully
tried for the production of milk in
the shape of bran or middling mashes
