Beet Sugar in the South.

In the North American Review for
very suggestive article entitled can
Industrial Opportunity for America"
The writer proceeds to show that
there are great possibilities in the
culture of the sugar beetin this coun-
try. The manufacture of beet sugar
is a great industry in Germany and
France. France produced 100000 tons
in a recent year of record, and Ger
many gave the world no less than
1918, 500 tons during the same year.
Both countries did large export
business in the product. Comment
ia Journal says:
"While no effort has been made yet
to raise the sugar beet in the South,
those who are familiar with that veg
etable and with our soil believe that
it can be grown here as successfully
as in the West. Mr. Hartman left At
lanta several weeks ago for Germany
to bring back large numebr of peo-
pie from that country who will settle
on lands which he has purchased in
South Carolina. This colony will
make the first experiment in the
South with sugar beet. Mr. Hartman
is native of Germany, and is famil-
lar with the methods of cultivating
the sugar beet and the process by
which the sugar is extracted from it,
He is an expert agriculturist, and
from close study of the soil in this
section and experiments with kindred
crops he is convinced that the sugar
beet can be grown here very success
fully. He predicts that his colony in
South Carolina will produce within
few years a great quantity of beet
sugar and will introduce in the South
an industry which will prove inn
mensely profitable to this section. -

Evans and Gartners Tobacco Farm.

One of the largest tobacco adven-
lures in this part of the state is that
under the management of Evans and
Gartner. This beautiful plantation is
located on the land known as the
Hendry place and is owned by the
Virginia and Florida Phosphate Com
pany.
The Cubans were greatly pleased
with the location of this land and the
suitability of the soil for tobacco cul-
ture, as it is one of the richest spots
in the country. In the early part of
the summer Mr.. Gartner visited the
company in Virginia and succeeded
in leasing the property for period
or six years.
1t was the intention to put out
about fifty acres, but owing to the
fact that they were unable to get the
plants they will fall far short of their
expectations. They have about so
acres under fence, have built three
dwelling houses and one large curing
house, and will have about twenty
five acres in plants by the first OF No
vember.
While they are somewhat disap-
pointed because they could not get
plants for the whole field, yet they
will begin in time next year and will
raise their own plants.
In tobacco culture as well as in al
most all other kinds of farming the
principal trouble is the dry weather.
1t is this fact that has caused so
many growers in other places to fail
This difficulty has been overcome by

The Mode of Making Cheap Jellies

Inc MOQ6 OF making OHodp J6llloS
We have known for a long time, in
a general way, that commercial jel-
lies were gotten up and put upon the
market very cheaply. The Grocery
World seems to have come into some
inside information upon this subject,
getting this knowledge from one who
assists in the discreditablc manufac-
ture. His description of the method
used in making these jellies is some
what interesting. Apple Jelly is the
base of all these cheap jellies, from
which they differ only in name, and
in the coloring and favoring materi-
al used. AS sort of guarantee to the
buyer that he is purchasing fruit jel-
jy, a few seeds are left here and
there, as through careless processing.
These seeds are obtained, to do this
duty, from currants and berries
found in waste barrels and boxes,
given away by the commission men
as food for pigs. The seeds are wash
ed out from this fermented dead
fruit, and the remainder goes into
the swill barrel There is said to be
splendid profit in the manufacture
of apple jelly, which, as we said,
forms the basis of so many others.
Continuing this information, this jel-
ly maker says: All the pOmace of
the cider mill made during the day
is thrown into pile in d corner of
the mill, and when the mill closes
down after the days run, the jelly
makers shovel into await enough pom
ace to make good sized cheese.
About 1875 gallons of water are pour
ed carefully all over it, and it is left
to soak about one-half hour. 1t is
then shoveled on to the press and
der. The juice which is expressed is
boiled down to such a consistency as
will result in it's congealing or jelly
ing when cold. By working another
cheese while the boiling of the juice
is progressing, much time is saved,
and as nothing is used but the pom
ace or refuse, water and labor, the
expense cannot be very material.
From each cheese they obtain from
eight to thirteen gallons of jelly. In
the case of sweet apple pomace, the
yield of jelly is greater than from a
cheese made from sour apples. There
| is a ready sale for all this at rs cents
per gallon. Cheeses soaked a second
| time, and put through the same pro-
| cess, have produced five gallons more
of apple. jelly. AS an idea of the
| money which can be made in this
business; in one night there were
made Is gallons, which at rs cents
per gallon, amounts to $56.25. From
the foregoing one can infer that the
profits of the business are too salts
| factory to allow of it's being aban-
| doned.- California Fruit Grower.

Fusion in the Campaign.

1t is n little too early to decide ex
actly what part fusion is to play in
the coming campaign, says the Chi
cago Record, but enough is indicated
to show how the idea is being re-
ceived by those who have the great
est interest in it. The indications
are that there is little disposition to
fuse in those states in which either
the democratic or popuiist party is
strong enough, or believes itself
strong enough, to carry the state.
Where the democrats are confident
they can carry the state they do not
favor union of forces with any party,
and fusion is not popular with the
populists in those states they feel
able to carry alone. In all such cas-
es the division of patronage is a bar
to coalition.
Seven states have put fusion tick
cts in the field and in each of them it
will require the combined votes of
the fusionists to carry the state for
the opposition. These states are
Kansas, Minnesota, South and North
Dakota, Illinois, Iowa, and Tennes-
see. Besides these, fusion is prob
able in the nine states of Nebraska,
Idaho, Michigan, Montana. Ohio, Or
egon, Utah, Washington and Wis
%consin. Fusion has been already ar
ranged in Michigan and Washing
TOM There is not much likelihood
of fusion in Florida, Arkansas, Ala
bama, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky,
Louisiana, North Carolina, Mississip.
pi, Missouri and Wyoming, II in all.
1t is uncertain whether there will be
fusion of parties in California and
Texas. In California the democratic
vote is 1884, the populist is 51,-
3O5, and the republican is l1O,732,
from which it appears that fusion in
that state is an important matter with
the supporters of Mr.. Bryar. In
Texas the democratic vote is larger
than the populist and republican
! votes combined.

1T MEANS THE SAME,

Ostensibly referring to what the
HERALD had to say Of our errino
brother Mitchelrs glaring duplicity,
the Miner offers the following rank
apology:
Whatever the object, mislea ling
statements have been made regard
ing H. b. Mitchell, lately proprietor
Of this paper. He has not gone over
to the gold forces as has been de-
clared, and we venture the assertion
that there is no stronger silver man
in these parts than he is. AS we un-
derstand the matter, the business
management of the Leader was off
cred him and he accepted it, but he
has nothing to do with the policy of
that paper.
Come off your stills, sister Miner.
Your remarks upon "misleading
statements" constitute "A very coarse
admission. The fact is exposed that
Mr.. Mitchell is a mercenary republi-
can, writing Mckinley editorials for
money. That he has sold his patriot
ism, and principle, too,-what little
he may have had--for a job. OF
course he doesn't dictate the policy
of the paper. He is only a sort of
trained monkey for the g. o !. p., and
has ceased to affiliate with the d. o. d.
Oh! What a fall was there my II
trymen.
Arnold did not dictate the British
military policy, dear sister, but he
accepted an inferior commission in
the British army. Judas Iscariot die
tatcd not the policy of the murder
Gus Pharisees, but without the blush
of shame upon his pallid cheek, kiss
ed his lord and master in their pres
ence.- Actuated by kindred motives,
Mitchell allows the Wall street min
ion te direct his brain and muscle in
TO a dubious course.
Had Arnold dictated the British
policy, the people might have accord
ed him that common courtesy beft-
ting his exalted position. Had Jud-
as ordered the c%rucifxion, we could
look upon him only as a bloodthirsty
monster in a blind and perverted age.
Did Mitchell control the destinies of
the Leader, we could offer him that
decent respect to which every free
moral agent is entitled.
But he has fettered his righteous
convictions, and battered away his
birthright for a mess of pottage. As
Judas succumbed to remorse, and
hanged himself, so the most grace
full curse for Mr.. Mitchell is to en-
ulate his splendid example.

The republican county committees Of
the several counties in the state will pro-
coed to call county conventions as usual
and elect delegates and alternate dele
gates to said state convention as above
apportioned. In the matter of nominat-
ing candidates for Judges of the several
judicial districts the committee recon-
mends that in all cases where the district
is limited to one county, the regular
county convention make the nomination
ut the time it dominates candidates for
for all other county offices. In other cases
where the district is composed of more
than one county, let the delegates to the
state convention from the counties COM
prising a district meet at the time and
place of the state convention and there
agree upon and make the nomination for
same, being guided by such instructions
if any, as have been given by their coun-
tv conventions.
The following rules have been adopted
conventions in Montana, and are now in
force:
|. Delegates and alternate delegates
shall be elected in future to state cOnvcn-
tons, and in the event of u failure of a
delegate to attend, the alternate delegate
shall cast the vote of the delegate whose
alternate he is.
2. In the absence Of the delegate and
his alternate, "A majority of the dclcga-
lion from that county shall cast the vote
for the absentee.
B. In the absence of all the delegates
and alternate delegates from any county
no vote shall be cast for such county.
4. In the county in which the state
convention shall be held. when any alb
sent, there shall be no vote cast in thei,
behalf.

From these figures it is evident
that fusion is popular only in those
states in which it is essential to sue
cess at the polls. There is however
one element Of uncertainty in all the
calculations that can lac made. aud
that is the number of democrats who
will vote for Mckinley, or not vote
at all. and the number Of republic
ans who will vote for Bryan. In
states like California every political
party in the state, at its state conven-
ton, adopted a free silver plank, from
which it is reasonable to suppose that
a large majority of that state are in
favor of change in our laws. 1t is
quite likely that the democrats will
get enough votes from the other par
ties on that issue to carry the state
without fusion. Fusion seems to be
a choice between twoeviIs and to be
prompted by the idea that half a loaf
is better than none. There is an ell
ement of the spoils system in it, and
a lack of the strict adhesion to prin-
ciple, for principles sake, that is
characteristic of all new and energet-
ic parties. For policy's sake it is
popular in some states at this elec-
ton, but whether it is wise can
be told only by its results. If it
should win this fall it will be said
to have succeeded, but winning in a
contest is not always success in the
best sense.

TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT,

The democrats Of Neihart are en-
cased in a rind like a r%hinoceros,
with a cystic gland like a load of
hay. Through some strange manip-
%ulation of numerals they have Sc
cured a squad of eight delegates to
the county convention to represent
the bare 20 votes cast by that party
in the last election. This is a repre-
sentation of II delegate to each
two and one half votes cast in the
precinct.
But this is not the strange part of
the proceedings. The populist del
ega,ion from this place also numb,
ers eight, who represent Il voting
strength in the past election Of 1924,
or one delegate for each fifteen and
one half votes cast in the precinct.
Now these democratic delegates,
whose actual electoral power rela-
tive to that of the %populists is less
than n to six. will go into confer
ence with the populists with a view
to fusion, and will even ask to stip-
ulatc terms upon which fusion shall
be based. The democratic dele
gates, who have virtually no votes
to back them. will make more noise
than a steam separator, attempting to
bluff the populists, until one would
think that they are ready on de-
mand to pull hundreds of votes out
of the abandoned tunnels and drifts
of this camp, sufficient to carry any
nefarious proposition they may be
cunning enough to project.
VIII the populists listen to their
shallow glamour: Will they have
the political acumen to see the dis
paraglng conditions. Robt. Smith
two years ago polled l24 votes at
Ncihart. Hal Corbett got only 20,
so should populist strength in con.
%vention compare with democratic.
Or, while the democrats have eight
delegates the populists should be
entitled to 40. On top of this un-
due advantage, the democrats will
demand all the loaves aud fishes, ex.
cept probably the fshboues and
whatever crusts are left.
The populists have not forgotten
the deal of two years ago, wherein
democrats furnished the offices and
populists the votes. And it will not
happen again.

A Historic Homestead.

Says the Philadelphia Record:
"Among Germantown's many old
time residences one of the most not
able is the Morris homestead on
Main street. opposite Market square.
This old home was the residence of
General Howe and at the same time
the home OF Prince William, then a
youth, who afterward became king
of England. Subsequently it was &C.
cupied by President Washington.
The old colonial house was built in
1872 by the ancestors of the family
now occupying it. The quaint in
terror of this stately mansion always
commands much attention. The
rooms are square and are finished in
solid walnut and rosewood cabinet
ware of a pattern in fashion at the
time of the Revolution. In one
room stands an old clock. at one
time the property of Marie Antoi-
nette, which licked away the hours
in it's same solemn meter in the
gorgeous palaces of Louis XVI.
There are quaint old sofas and tables,
none of them q day under 80 years
old. The parlor is also furnished in
the same antique style. In the bed
rooms there r numerous relics of
Revolutionary times. In n cham
Der is a bedstead IS years old, with
tall, carved rosewood posts. and the
tapestries and curtains, paintings
and bric-a. brac are all of an age long
past"
