and women's garments usually button
toward the left side. This custom
dates back to the time when citizens
were compelled to go about armed.
When a lady took a gentleman's arm
she usually walked on his left side.

his sword to defend her. Her left arm
was thus at liberty and her garments

Plea For the Development of Beet
SMEAR Industry

Plea For the Development of Beet
sugar Industry.
The desirabiIity of making Wiscon-
sin sugar beet raising State, and some
of the reasons why sugar beets are
grown there. are given in a recent
issue of the Louisiana Planter. as fol-
lows.
Wisconsin has an immense German
population. and the city of Milwaukee,
next after Cincinnati, is probably the
largest German-American city in the
West. The German element has doubt
less familiariZed the people of that en-
terprising State with the wonderful adj
vantages that have accrued to Ger
many from the development of the
beet sugar industry there. 1t is held
by them that equal advantages will
inure to the people of Wisconsin with
the development of the beet sugar in
dustry in that State.
All this has led TO the erection of
a beet sugar factory at Menominee
Falls. for which factory a large guam
tity of beets were raised this last sea-
son and are now in SiloS awaiting the
completion of the factory. Unexpected
delays in completing the factory have
prevented manufacturing operations
thus far. 1t is confidently expected.
however. that the beet crop held al the
factory in Silos and held by the farm
ers, not yet delivered, will be salts
factoriIy consumed within few weeks.
The Waupaca Republican advocates
the payment of State bounty for the
more rapid development of the sugar
industry. realizing as it does that those
first in the field are apt to realize the
best results.
IL is estimated that ii will take %
factories TO supply the sugar consumed
in Wisconsin alone, and in discussing
the proposed Wisconsin bounty it was
suggested that the first five factories
should have the benefit of the proposed
bounty. Objections are raised to this.
as il is considered wiser to have the
bounty paid to all of those who are
willing to engage in the industry. The
editor of the Waupaca Republican says
that he is anxious to see the sugar in
dustTy go on. not only in Wisconsin,
but wherever IL can be made profitable
in this country to producer and con-
sumner, so as to stop the drain of gold

WASHINGTON. d. c.. March %
The POpulists of the House and
Senate held a joint caucus this even
ing at which a joint address was
issued defining the position of the
PEOPLES party on the tariff bill.
Their address declares that the pend
ing tariff measure in the House is for
the purpose of side-tracking real and
vital issues. The address further de-
cIares that lack of revenue is not the
result of defects in the bill Ohe Wilson
bin as it was passed by Congress. but
resulted from a decision OF the Supreme
Court which declared the income tax
unconstitutional. The most direct and
effective method would be to restore
silver and increase the circulation of
TIE mediums so as TO restore the level
of prices which existed prior 10 the
decentralization of that metal

Eastern situation.

Salisbury and HanotauX Discuss the
Eastern situation.
LONDON. March 2S.-The confer
ence which the Marquis of Salisbury
had in Paris Friday with NJ Hanotaux,
the French Minister for Foreign At
fairs, is regarded as most important,
not only with reference to the Eastern
situation. but as bearing upon the gen
eral relations between Great Britain
and France.
It was noticed that NJ Hanotaux
greeted Lord Salisbury cordially when
he arrived. and that their parting was
even more cordial. indicating that the
conference was satisfactory to both
parties. What actually passed is not
known, but the Figaro believes that
Lord Salisbury suggested that the is
and of Crete be occupied by two pow
ers. one of them being Great Britain
and the other France or Russia. Other
French newspapers and the British
press believe that the conference was
a sign of improved relations. and es-
pecially significant as following the
visits of Queen Victoria and the Prince
of Wales to President Faure.
The British premier. whose health is
much shaken. is expected to remain on
the Riviera until after Easter.
