THOUSANDS FOR BAGGING.

Dawson Warehousemen Have Already In
vested $4,000 in Bagging and Ties.
The opening of the cotton season is
near at hand, and the Dawson ware
housemen are beginning to make prepar-
ations for it. And from the way in
which they are investing in covering for
the staple they evidently have no fear
about Dawson leading southwest Geor-

Last week four warehousemen receiv-
ed a shipment of $l3, 600 worth of ,tton

THE lNCENDIARY'S TORCH.
IT WAS APPLIED TO A BUILDING
THURSDAY NIGHT.


The incendiary is at work in Daw-
son. The burning of the negro house
and stables in Perry & Roberts ware
yard Thursday morning and the at
tempt to burn a servants house at the
Old Baldwin homestead, where Mr.. j.
NJ. Cobb resides, Thursday night are
directly traceable to the fiend who
would destroy with the torch.
THURSDAY NIGHTS ATTEMPT.
About - O'Clock Thursday night a
house on Mr.. Cobb's premises was
discovered to be on fire by negro
named Alfred Tinsley, and by
prompt action the flames were
eXtinguished before any serious dam
age was done. Oil had been poured on
the side Of the house and the fire start
ed with lightwood splinters, and but
for the timely discovery a serious fire
would have resulted.
About twelve inches of the weather
boarding was burned on the side of the
house.
THURSDAY MORNINGS FIRE.
The fire Thursday morning was DIS
covered a little after 3 O'Clock. 1t en-
tlreIy consumed the negro house. where
1t started, and the stables in Perry &
Roberts wareyard. The large variety |
shops of Baldwin & Co. & Geise were |
in great danger, and were only saved |
by the good work Of the tfremen
This fire was also the work OF an in
lncendlary, as oil and spIinters were
seen under the negro house when the
flames were first discovered.
There is no clue to the incendIary.

pions-Bryan, Bland and Teller,
Bland and Teller have sunk into in
significance and Bryan is making his
last great kick. If Mr.. Bryan had
any idea of being presidential can
didate in 1900, he would not be 60
ing about the country making politi-
cal speeches where there were no
state campaigns and charging admis-
sion to the same. He is a smooth
duck, and realizing that the McKin-
ley prosperity Cor the shortage OF
the wheat crop in India, as our pop
ocratic friends say has cooked his
goose, he is going right after the dol
lars. No one blames him for thus
heeling himself.

Loans have increased but not in
the same ratio. Last year they were
$Is,ss7,Ia5.44, or nearly one-third

This year the loans are SI6.945,9aI.-

The reserve of cash and sight ex-
change has increased almost IS per

lieved that when all the reports are
in, the increase will be fully IS per
cent. if not more. Last year all the
banks had in ready cash and sight
exchange $6,439,656.93. This year
those reported have $Io,95a,9S1.24
"a net increase of S4,5I3,324.31.
The anxiety TO pay debts seems to
have affected the banks as much as
it has individuals, for bills
payable have been reduced from
S47I,62o.31 in October 1896, to
S37I,73I in October 1897, reduc-
ion of about 80 per cent.

the banks keep up the average, the
increase will be easily 100 per cent.

deficiency.

- 1t is laughabie to hear the popo-
Gratis attempt to explain the short
age in the state treasury. Some ad-
vance one theory and others an
other but the fact that the treasury
is empty and the great common
wealth of Kansas for the first time
in her history is paying interest on
her obligations stands undisputed.
The facts that taxes in Kansas are
collected closer than for many
years stands uncontardicted. The
facts are our brethren who are long
on theory are short on practice;
talk is cheap but it takes cold coin
to pay debts. All the argument
the pops are able to muster, and
they are profuse in this line, can
not liquidate the debts they have
contracted; it takes cash. The
people of Kansas will decide by
their ballots Tuesday whether they
want this outfit of theorists to dc
business for them during the mex
two years, or the G. o. P, that al.
ways makes both ends meet.

ELECTION.

u ltCllOn.
Ia Next Tuesday occures the cleo
ton; if you are voter, it is both
your privilege and duty to vote; If
you are a republican there is no
good excuse why you should not
vote the republican ticket. The
Neosho county republican ticket
was nominated almost by acclama-
ton and no one can say aught
against the nominees. All are COM
petent, honorable and upright ann
each can fill the Office to which he
aspires. There is a great deal of
buttonholing and personal soliciting
especially In and around Chanute,
but if we are any judge, the repub-
licans of this town will vote their
ticket this year closer than for some
time and it stands them in hand to
do so If they desire their candidates
from this place to be successful in
the future.
From all parts of the county
comes the remark, cit all depends
on Chanute; if Chanute's republi-
cans stick to the ticket as well
as the. rest of the of the coun-
ty, the entire republican ticket will
be elected" The people of the en-
tire county have their eyes on Chan
ute, and if her republicans have the
good of the party at heart, the en-
tire ticket will receive from $50 to
800 majority here. 1t is to the in
terest of Chanute's politicians to see
to it that the republicans all 60 to
the polls and vote the republican
ticket.

Industrial Progress.

The iron and steel manufacturer
of the United States at the present
time are turning out greater guam
tity of their various. products than
ever before in the history of the
country. The current consumption
of pig iron amounts to aga, 900 tons
weekly, which is over IL million
tons a year.
The greatest single years produc-
ton of pig iron in the United States
was 81 millions tons, in 1895.
Only twelve years ago the output
was but 4 million tons. 1t increas-
ed to o,157, 900 tons in 1892, but
the progress was too rapid, and the
production dropped back to 6,651
900 tons in 1894. The great in
crease in 1895 resulted in the &C
emulation of excessive stocks in
the country, so that there was fall
ing off in 1896, but the consumption
has more than caught up with the
production now. and the factories
are using at the present timei 40,
900 tons more than the furnaces are
turning out. Of course, cohtinu
alton of the present great demand
will result in an increase in the
production of pig iron to meet it,
and it is not improbable that the
enormous total of IL million tons
will be reached in 1898.
1t has not required great adj
vance in prices to bring about this
increase in production. Indeed,
prices of..most iron and steel arti-
cles are lower now than anyone
would have supposed to be possible
ten years ago. But the cost of pro-
duction has been cut down to such
an extent that the manufacturers are
making good profits at present pri-
ces.
The record of the iron industry
in this country is a good illustra-
ton of the almost incredible indus
trial development of recent years.
Changes in methods of manufacture
involving the expenditure of millions
of dollars for new plants and the
practical abandonment of old fac
tories and machinery once worth
many millions have put it in the
power of American manufacturers
to produce iron and steel so cheap
ly as to enormously increase the
uses to which they be can put, and,
more than that, the cheapened pro-
cesses have made 1t possible for
America to ship steel rails and SINH
lar products to England, Russia,
Japan, indeed, 10 almost every
country in the world in competition
with the old world makers of steel.
The great iron and steel manufac-
turers show that faith in the con-
tinued rapid growth of the industry
by investing fortunes in machinery
and new lake vessels for obtaining
ore and in plants for the cheaper
production of iron and steel pro-
ducts on huge scale, so that, great
as the growth of the business has
been in the past twelve years, it
seems now to be entering on a new
era of unparalleled expansion. -

A WIPE'S OBLIGATIONS.
An Important Precedent for Broken
Down Husbands.

An Important Precedent for Broken
Down Husbands.
There are times when under the law of
support her husband. This point was
established yesterday by decision rem
dered by Justice Temple of the Supre m e
Court, which was concurred in by Justices
Henshaw and Van Fleet and Chief Justice
Beatty. The circumstances OF the case on
which this decision was made were Of
themselves peculiar
In Los Angeles County, there live an
aged couple named Livingston. The
wife. Mrs. Mary A. Livingston, has
reached the mature age of 70 years, and
her husband, Samuel W., is even older
than the wife. In fact he IS so aged as to
be infirm and unable to support himsel
Some time ago the wife deserted her hus-
band, and he was left as helpless as a
baby. In their more prosperous days the
wife always carried the handbook, and
furthermore she had money in her own
right.
After the old woman deserted the old
man, he sued her for maintenance and
won the suit, the Superior Court OF Los
Angeles County ordering Mrs. Livin gston
10 pay her usband monthly allowance
OF ia. She at once transferred all oil her
property to her daughter, 80 as to avoid
the execution of he order. She was cited
to appear and show cause why she should
not BE- punished for contempt. The con-
tempt proceedings resulted in her being
committed 10 prison until such time as
size would comply with the order of the
court. From that judgment she appealed
to the Supreme Court, and the judg ment
has been affirmed.

TENTH SESSION
A Big SUCCESS
Flattering Prospects and
Increasing Prosperity
Noted.
Election of Grand officers Of the
Young Mems Catholic
Union.
Eleven Growing Assemblies We're Rep
resented at the Annual
Assembly.

The tenth Grand Assembly of the
Young Mems Catholic Union completed
its labors at Loyola Hall yesterday even
ing. after an interesting session OF three
days.
The organization is in a most flourish
ing CONDITION, and this has been the best
attended and most successful meeting In
its history.
Fifty representative young men of the
Catholic faith, representing eleven pros
porous asse m bIies, were In constant at
tendance. and all took lively interest in
the proceedings. The following grand
officers for the ensuing year were elected
and installed:
Grand chaplain, Rev, Joseph F. Byrne; past
grand president. ?. N. Hanrahan; grand
president, P. E. Mccarthy; grand first VICE
president ]. A. Brien; grand second vice
president d. Cronin; grand secretary, D has,
kins; grand treasurer, J. Engllsh; grahu
2. Brazel; grand outside sentinel, J. Brennan
grand trustees-M. Rodgers, NJ FITZGERALD j.
B. Wizard, J. j. Powers, j. e. Murphy.
The membership of the society has
steadily increased since its organization
in 1887. Its finances also are in the best
possible shape. During the past year
1899 has been paid out to the widows ana
orphans Oh ueCedSS' oIN "
in sick benefits. The treasurer's books
show a balance of cash on hand and In
bank amounting to $47S6.
Grand p esident Peter n. Hanrahan IS
his annual address express ed much satls-
faction with the present condition OF the
organization, and encouraged the mem
bers to continue the good work along the
present lines.
Several proposed amendments to the
CON stitutiOn were productive of much de-
bate, but the majority decided that the
constitution was satisfactory as it stands
and only a few changes of minor I'M
portance were made.
The next Grand Assembly will be held
in this City in August, 1898
Permanent headquarters have been
established at Loyola Hall, corner OF
Tenth and Market streets. Grand Presi-
dent P. E. Mccarthy has the greatest
confidence in the future of the organiza-
ton and intends to establish an assembly
in every parish in the State.

mad patterns on account of size or color,
but several teachers have insisted that
nads of uniform size should be furnished.
It happens that the Myself d Rollins pad
of a baby blue shade has the picture OF
dog on the cover-a large fine dog. Inc
pad with a blue shade ana dog is the
acceptable size. The principal holds 1t up
On all the children can see the dog and
then she tells them to get pads OF tnat
size. The plan works 10 charm, ana
people now say that he ocul1st has come
10 stay in the School Department.
In the Introduction of blank books some
of the principals have been dong the
rawest kind of work, such as telllng each
pupil that certain blank books must De
used. The proof has been obtained on
one principal. and as the law likes pen
altv of $500 for the offense there Is TAX OF
having her punished. She will be taug nt
to stand in with the ring and not 10 at
tempt any business outside OF the COM
bination.
Since the board has authorized so many
changes and put up the cost OF education
on the poor as we'll as on the riG tne d;
has been tremendous drain on the lnol-
gent fund. Out of this fund books may Dc
procured for children whose parents are
too poor to buy the necessary equipment.
The rush on this fund is likely to continue.
Surprise was expressed yesterday Dy
School Directors and at the ONCE OF Inc
Board of Education that pupils had been
instructed TO no longer use straps In car
rying their books to and from school, ont
to use instead bags. Parents heard OF the
new decree yesterday, and much lndlgna-
ton was manifested. There is some boss
devil behind the bag scheme, whose lden-
tity has not been revealed. 1t is denied at
the office of the Board of Education that
any authority has been given for the issue
of this order.
1t is the Judgment Of men who were IN
terviewed yesterday that steps should be
taken to protect the people from this raid
OF the Solid Nine and the book ring. The
proportions of the raid can hardly be cal
culated at present. 1t is estimated, how
ever, that the 45 600 schoolchildren in this
City may be forced to contribute SIS each,
or, in the aggregate, $225, 900. This is only
the beginning.
All the interests of plumber seem to
have joined together. The first concerted
attack on large scale was made at sac
ramento last winter, but was exposed and
defeated in the Legislature. The ring
gained one strong point when the Gov
ernor knocked out the entire appropr a
ton for the maintenance of the State
Printing Office for two years. The ring
hoped 10 gain full control of the entire
business OF supplying books when this
veto was announced, but subsequent opin-
ions by the Acknowledgement defeated
that hone. The present policy of the ring
is to work ON the local boards throughout
the State.
There seems to be fine field open for the
new Grand Jury TO enter.

OF the Lowell MASS association August
5, 1872. This position he filled until sixteen
years ago, when he was called 10 San

been thoroughly identified with the assoc
citation work, and a good deal of the sue
cess of the organization is due to his un-
firing labors in its behalf.
