Jake Teten. of Albert, has the
proper notion about the irrigation
business. He says he safest way for
most farmers to start in the irrigation
business is 70 manufacture thelr-own
wind mills-the surface or ''overshpt"
wheel-build small pond or reservoir,
and irrIgae small patch to start
with; until they have learned how to
use the water. After a years expert
ence they will know how much they
can aft to risk IN larger and MOI e
scientific plant. He thinks, however,
that number of farmers could go in
together and put in gas engine and
large pump, build a large reservoir
and make a success of irrigation by
the more advanced methods. He
thinks no farmer should go in debt for
an expensive irrigation plant until he
has learned how and what to raise at
profit.

SPRECKELS TALKS,
Gives His Reasons Why the Sugar
Retineries Must Close.

San Francisco, Nov. 30.-In reference
to the Associated Press Interview with
H. .. Havemeyer, president of the
American Sugar Refining company,
Adoiph &. Spreckels, director and score
tary OF the California Sugar Refinery,
says:
II have read that Havemeyer inter
view and understand the exact condi-
ton OF sugar refining in the eastern
states. Havemeyer and his people con-
troll the sugar trade of all the country
east of the Missouri river, and the Cali
formal refinery controls pretty much all
west of the river 1 think Havemeyer is
right when he says that closing his re-
fineIies will throw $4,000 people out of
work. The reason they are to close is
this:
They cannot compete with foreign
sugars. The administration has effec-
ually shut out the sugar refining bust
ness in this country. German granulated
sugar Xxx is laid down in New York at
SO the hundred pounds, and raw or
crude costs laid down there $3.50 the
hundred. That leaves a margin of six
on which to pay refinery charges and
make a profit. The thing is simply alb
surd. In the east they pay refinery
hands S1.T0 per day. In Germany the
wages are but $113. The trade cannot
stand the difference. The German sugar
is beet sugar that has been refined
abroad. This market is now bringing in
great deal of Chinese sugar that is re-
fined by two English firms In Hong
avlia and the Philippine islands Those
refinerie5 employ collie labor at 10
cents per day. There is only one remedy
and that is protection"

AMERICAN BEEF,
The German Market Purely specu-
lntivc and Conducted Under Diff
cuIfies.

Washington, Nov. 30.-Secretary Morton
is in receipt of a communication from Mr.
John Mats, jr., special agent of the
department Of agriculture in Germany,
referring to possibilities of extending the
markets in that country for American
meats Mr Matts writes under the date
OF November u, as follows:
Last year German farmers and stock
breeders were compelled to sell their cat
tie irrespective of price and condition
1t was then predicted this year Germany
would be short of beef cattle resulting in
q rapid advance in the prices of meat,
which would give foreign meat exporters
an opportunity TO establish themselves in
the German market. l have visited many
of the principal German cities and pa1c
attention to the sale of imported MEATS,
but in my opinion, Germany will never
become a large consumer or imported
meats. It is true the consumption of
American. sailed bacon and other meat
products in cans may increase in such
abnormal years, but under normal condi-
tons, it may be said the poorer classes
cannot allow themselves the luxury. The
more fortunate are, as a. rule, unreason-
ably prejudiced against foreign meats.
THE sale of imported fresh meat is,
however. conducted with many difficult
ties, sst-, iassiht y-zzsitn great loss 10 the
exporter brought about by the local
regulations. AT the best the business

Reward offered For seeIey.

New York, Nov. S0.-The examination
of the second box of the late Frederick
Baker in the Park National bank has

The directors of the Shoe and Leather

Montgomery, Ala. Nov. 3O.-Kolb
has arrived in the city and will be
sworn in tomorrow. There is grave ap-
prehension of trouble The advance
guard of Kolbites arrived last night
and they are talking very bitterly to-
day. The Kolbite members of the leg
islature now admit a possible conflict
and last night held a caucus at which
they passed resolutions disclaiming amy
responsibility for any laWlessness that
may occur. There is fear that some
crank laboring under excitement may
attempt to assassinate Oates or Jones,
and extra precautions will be taken to
protect both. A prominent leader of
the, Populists, Hon. Frank Baitzell,
editor of. the Alliance-Herald, and who
is in a position to speak for Kolb, said
today that he did not expect any overt
acts or revolutionary course by the
Peoples party followers for the reason
that the party has spoken against it
and everything is unfavorabIe for such

Many regard the usurpaition of Oates
as a wrong which will justify any re-
sistance to prevent its consumma tion,
but they do not intend to resort to
any sort Of violence. Nearly every
prominent man in the movement op-
posed any violence and all of those in
authority oppose ii.
