Col A. +. Bucks refusal to resign the
Craftsmanship Of the republican state CEN

direct Georgil's republican politics from
Toxic, Japan, which will be his place OF
residence for the next four years. But the
other aspirants will doubtless rest easy
when they learn that the cable rates from
Japan are $22 per word. as a $4,000 sal

The strawberry picking season has
opened up at Sarcoxie, Mo-, with the
greatest and in many respects the most
picturesque gathering of people ever as
sembled in any community.
The Sarcoxie Horticultural Association,
controlling a farm of $4,000 acres in
straw berries, advertised for 10000 pick
ers. Their circulars were responded to
by fully 10000 people, who are besieg-

SarcOxie.
The overflow has been SO great that
thousands were forced to sleep upon the
grounds and prepare their meals in has

SOME OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
MARKED DIMUNITION IN GUAM.
THY OF INTOXTCANTS SOLD.
Claimed That The Road TO TOperdOm
Is Not StreWn With Constantly
Increasing Number of
Wrecks,

The opinion prevails that the Ameri-
can people are a nation of guzzlers, and
that the evil of incompetence grows
from bad to worse year after year. Col
umns of statistics have been compiled to
show that the demon of drink is slowly
but surely extending it's sway in this
country, and that the road to toperdom
is strewn with a constantly increasing
number of human wrecks. The evil UNI
doubtedly exists, and it is pictured to us
daily in its blacklist and most hideous
form; yet there is an occasional CLEAN
of hope to encourage the advocates of
temperance reform. The American
Grocer, which is recognized authority
in the commercial world, has compiled
statistics which prove beyond doubt that
in the decade from 1887 to 1896 there
has been marked diminution in the
quantity of intoxicants sold and consum-
ed in this country, II PCS, 600 people u.s.
ing less spirits in 1896 than $3.50, 900
people did in 1887.
Sixty m lion gallons of spirits were
used as a beverage in 1896. Barrooms
show an average of sixty drinks per gal
lon, returning about 81 so, thus making
the nations whiskey bill S27O, 900 600
while in 1892 and 1898 it averaged $4O0
100000. The average consumption of
beer for the past three years has been
fifteen gallons per capita, or over one
billion gallons per annum.
In its comments upon this comparative
showing the Grocer makes the following
classification:
