Maryland Ballots

BALTIMORE, Nov. 6.-The board of sa2-S
pervisors of election of Somerset county
met today and found that 495 ballots lacked
the signature of the judges, as required by
law. The board adjourned until Monday,
when Attorney General Clabaugh is ex-
pected to be present. If the courts declare
these ballots illegal 1t may affect the result
in several counties.

LYMAN GAGE.

This much is known "for sure" OF
Mr.. Gage, the secretary of the treasury
that is to be:
He voted for Grover in 1884.
He contributed to the Henry George
single tax campaign in Delaware last
fall.
He believes in a revenue tariff,
otherwise free trade.
He is thorough going civil service
reformer.
He is down on trusts.
A mighty record all this makes, but
there is no mlstaking the type-Mr
Gage is an lrreconcllable, unadulter'
ated mugwump.
Mr.. Gage is the president of the
American Bankers association. He
has cen the president OF the Million
aires club and OF the Bankers club OF
Chicago. He has published long age
his plan OF national currency for the
people OF United States-we should
rather say, for the bankers of the
United States. 1t is very simple.
Call In, says Banker Gage, the
greenbacks, TO the extent Of $3.50, 600
600. Issue that amount OF interest
bearing bonds and tax the people to
pay them so as TO redeem these green
backs which bear no interest. Allow
national banks TO issue their promises
to pay, up 10 the full value OF the gov
ernment bonds they hold. That is
his panacea.

Not all the dlsgracefuI conduct is

A correspondent In the Eugene

occurrence 10 the Monday session Of
the senate:
The roll call proceeded without In

reached, when he arose In a bowling
manner aud addressed the chair and
holding In his hand what he said was
a communication from the opposition
stating that IL the senatorial question
be dropped and no ballot oe taken this
session they would come in and organ
ize the house. This seemed to some
what arouse the blood Of the salmon
cannery senator from Douglas, who
broke out In voice Of fury and asked:
"What IN hi do they take us for
lot OF d--n fools!' And reading little
further and getting mixed up and dis
gusted at himself, ,knowing'well that he
has no business here and that he ought
to be home sllcing salmon, he dem
anded: "Who In HI is holding up the
legislature?" At this juncture the
Hon. l. d. Driver, D D, in all his Dig
nifty arose and said: 81 don't know
who IN HI Is holding up this leglsla-
ture, but / do know who in Oregon is
holding 1t up" Senator Johnson, OF
Linn, seeing the disgrace those gentle
men were casting upon the state
moved an immediate adjournment.

conduct has ever been charged against
Messrs Barkley and Craig.

THE SUGAR TRUST INDUSTRY

THE SUGAR TRUST INDUSTRY
Daily New York Mail and Express
| Editorial; Nov that the Lexow conI-
mittee on trusts has closed It's Inquiry
Into the operations OF the American
Sugar Refining Company, the results
Of its work may be briefly considered.
II has been d1own by the admission Of
its own wltneeses that the American
Sugar Refining Company:
/. Has destroyed competition ia the
sugar business and realized enormous
profits b. purchasing the property Of
It's rivals and taking the same into its
own system al capitalization repre-
senting twice its original value aud
pay Ing dividends thereon.
2. That It IL able TO dictate, the
price which ii shall pay for its supply
of ra = sugar. wherever IL may buy, In
any part OF the world.
8. That u 80 completely controls the
markets, both as 10 supply and de-
mand, that II Is enabled 10 fix and
maintain the price at which refined
sugar shall be sold 10 retailers and
consumers.
The power which the Rel Iing
Company is thus shown to exercise is
something colossal. Recklessly ex-
erted, IL would absolutely destroy
competitive enterprise la trade, and
80 some extent has already done So,
as the testimony OF the Sugar Trust
witnesses plainly proves. Against
such concentration of corporate
power there can be no safety either
for honorable competitors or for the
public at large. When a corporation
becomes powerful enough TO dictate
the price which a producer shall re-
ceive tor his raw material, as well as
the price which he shall pay for a
| finished product made therefrom, IT
becomes an oppressOr OF the people
and an enemy 10 the material inter
ests OF the country. Its power Is an
act OF usurpation which the govern
ment itself would not dare ito commit
except under the stress OF war, and Its
influence is destructive alike TO bust
ness and 10 morals.
II is yet TO be shown that the meth
ods and purposes of the Sugar Trust
are In violation OF statute law. They
may be strictly legal In technical
sense, but II is as clear as MONDAY
that they are against public policy
aud In restraint Of trade, and that
they are a constant menance TO onT
commercial interest that dares to op-
pose them. TO have learned this
much concerning the power and pur.
pose Of the sugar monopoly is worth
all It has cost. IL abunaantly justi'
fles the whole inquiry which Senator
Lexow has instituted, for II shows
that vast business In this country Is
absolutely under the control OF a mo-
nopoly which acts asa law unto itself
In fixing the vllue Of a commodity
which enters into daily use in every
American household.

such an expense that it always kept
the owners of outfits in debt. Mr.. Kin

ing that there must be some remedy
Tor this, he set himself to work to fig
IRE out the solution, with the result
that he finally evolved "Kinnev's
Heater and Purifier for Locomotives
and Threshing Engines" also known
as the alkah separator
An illustration of this remarkable
device is shown herewith, giving the
end and side views. 1t is constructed
OF boiler plate and is practically indie
struct1ble. For use on threshing en-
glnes, it is set in the smoke box. and
Is heated by all that surplus heat
which is otherwise lost through the
smokestack. The water enters the p1-
ilner from the top and is heated bv
nues the same as in an ordinary boiler
and also by get of steam from the
dome. This jet Of steam is forced into
the water and raises it's temperatI,ra
10 point which precipitates the AL
Kali, mud or other impurities which =
deposits in the bottom of the heater
Inc water is then forced into the boil
er proper by an injector and is bv this
time OF the same temperature as the
water previously in the boiler. At tho
emu OF the days work, or oftener if do

kinney has already received q nI1ohar
OF very hattering offers for this ~
masterpiece creation of his brain hut
he has steadfastly refused tharo Ill
He has, however, given an ontinr " ne
fourteen months to an Eastern svndi
cate, headed by Hubert Gardiner IS
New York, in which to organize a com ~ :
pany and arrange for its manufacture
on royalty. Mr.. Kinney has recently
returned from conference with this
syndicate, and, being philosophical
citizen Of st, Paul, he is naturally
anxious that the device be manufac-
tured in this city, and has labored
long and hard with them to that effect.
1t is more than probable that a branch
establishment, at least, will be located
here. This is the center of the terri
tory where the heater will find its
readiest sale, and the cost of manu-
facture will be no more here than in
the East.
This heater and purifier can be pro
duced at a cost which will enable the
manufacturers to place it on threshing
engines for $3.50, and it would pay for
itself within month, If the test it has
already been subjected to is any critic

Frank E. Kinney, the engineer at the
West side pumping station, is the in
Ventor and patentee of a remarkable
device which apparently is destined
to create a furore in steam boiler prac-
tice-as Col. Sellers would say, it
seems as though there must be millions
in it.
MIR. Kinney has followed his profess
sion of engineer for many years and
much of this time was with threshing
outfits in the grain fields. Thus it was
that he could not but notice the fact
that these engines and boilers were
very short lived, especially in regions
where the only water obtainable for
their use was of that peculiar nature
known as alkan water. The alkali
would form a scale in the boiler and
on the fiues, so that, at the end of
three years, it was necessary to pur-
chase a new outfit, and this entailed
