'The lowering of prices that en-
sued from the competition of the
department houses was naturally
followed by largely increased
consumption of almost all Of the
kinds of goods in which they dealt.
This increased consumption in
turn gave a great impetus to man
ufacture, and has undoubtedly
been the agency through which
many of our great domestic in
dustries have reached their pres
ent magnificent proportions.
american women are said to
be the best and most tastefully
dressed women in the world; in
fact-except in the remotest Sec
tions of the country not yet pene-
trated by the raiIroads-a poorly
dressed woman is the exception.
We are confident that it is not
claiming too much influence for
the department store to say that
its enterprise in carrying in stock
large assortments of ladies' gar
ments and the stimulus it gave to
the designing and manufacture
thereof has had much to do with
the remarkable cultivation of
taste that is now so pronounced
a characteristic of American

"The Changers have always ap-
preciated the advantage to the
farmer of buying goods at the
least possible cost. In their Coun-
ty, State and National Conven-
tions, there have been constant al
lusions to the subject. Some
Grange communities have tried to
establish stores of their own, that
the members might supply their
needs at the lowest possible prices.
While few of these cooperative
stores have been successful, prac-
tica11y the same ends have been
attained for the Granger through
the rise of the department store
with it's system of fair treatment,
good merchandise and uniformly
low prices.

Who is the Taxpayers Friend
The Man who Makes Lawsuits
or the rian who Keeps the
County Out of them?

Everybody remembers how the
old Republican Board of County
Commissioners kept J. d. Helfrich
and his bondsmen out Of over $4,000
for nearly year, because he had
not made taxpayers hold up their
hands and swear to the list of their
property. They even went SO far
as to put women on the stand to
say that they had not made such
sworn statement to the assessor
Then, in an elaborate opinion, this
Board spread upon its minutes re-
fusing payment of the claim and
forced the assessor to appeal the
case to the district court at great
expense and contrary to the wish of
many heavy taxpayers, who be-
lieyed it was a frivolous and ma
licious objection. In the district
court the case was decided promptly
in favor of the assessors bondsmen.
Even then the one-man Board would
not let up, but prepared to appeal
the case to the supreme court-still
keeping the bondsmen out of the
use of their money.
Fortunately their term of Office
expired, and the present Board, I'M
der advice from the Attorney Cen
eral and District Attorney, dis
missed the case and paid the bonds
men.
Just the other day the Supreme
Court, in the case of the Corpora
tive Savings and Loan Association
ys. Green ct al, incidentally decided
that it was not necessary for the
assessor to demand such statement.
In their decision the Supreme Court
says:
"Section 1888 revised statutes re-
quires the assessor in case any per-
son, after demand on him, refuses
or negleets to give under oath such
statement, to note the refusal on the
assessment book opposite the name
of such person so refusing. The
copy of line and page Of the assess
ment book put in evidence contains
no marginal entry whatever.
In our view of the case, it is not
necessary to a valid assessment that
the statement referred to in said
section 1929 be demanded by the
assessor, or that the person assessed
give such statement or refuses to
do So
But the gang" still insist on be-
ing friends of the Gilmore taxpayerl

The gold output in Colorado this
year will be larger even than last
year. This is not due to any new
discoveries, but to the introduction
of cyanide and colonization plants
for the reduction of low grade ores.
1t is strange that none of these
plants have as yet been erected on
any of the Elmore county gold
bearing lodes-many of which are
known to be large and rich but very
refractory However, Dan Reber
has taken the initiative step in this
matter, and after his cyanide works
at Dixie have proven a great sue
eess-as it surely will-we may ex-
pect to see such plants in operation
at Pine Grove, junction Bar, Rocky
Bar aad Atlanta, and, in eonse-
quenee, all those camps again boom

Meritorious Affair.

The Baptist entertainment given
last evening in the auditorium was
well presented to good and pleas
ing audience. A recitation "Rock
of Ages" by Miss Iona Sprague,
was very prettily rendered. THE
Mermaid" by Miss Jessie Sprague,
showed the excellent talent of that
young lady as an elocutionist. The
Brownies created quite a little
amusement, each little boy being
dressed in the style of the we'll
known Brownie. The dialogues,
watermelon pickle" by Miss Win
ME Wayte and Granville Howeth;
Sewing Circle" by Misses Rosa
Pigg, Pearl Johnson, Elsie Coon,
Bessie Galloway and Gertie Wells
were very amusing, especially the
last mentioned, it being quite up to
the times. Two Little Girls in
Blue" sung by Hazel Harris and
Nellie Turner, each dressed in blue
and wearing large blue hats. seemed
to be well appreciated by the audi
ence. They waltzed around like
little fairies and kept excellent
time with the music. The cantata,
Quarrel of the Flowers by eight
young ladies was the hit of the
evening. The Rose, Miss Ada Rob-
bins, sang her part with ease. The
Crocus, Miss Bessie Galloway, was
the peacemaker, and rendered her
part admirably. The Dahlia, Miss
Elsie Coon, in her stately position
sang we'll. The Lily, Miss Mary
johnson, snowdrop, Miss Dona Har-
ris and the Violet, Miss Susie Chat
tin all carried their parts well. The
trembling little pink, Miss Jennie
Tate, sang sweetly, and the naughty
Sunfiower who caused all the dis
turbance among these beautiful
flowers was we'll represented by
Miss Ruth Robbins. Each young
lady was dressed in white, their
dresses being profusely decorated
with the flowers they represented.
The vocal solo, Lords of Crea-
tion," by Miss Bessie Galloway,
was well rendered. The vocal Duet,
Lilies Game of See Saw" by Dona
Harris and Walter Tanner, was
quite unique. Miss Dona singing
in her clear sweet voice, Walter
Tanner joining in the chorus,
both seated on a see saw keeping
time to the music as they sang.
The tableau Queen of the Fair
les" was pretty. The queen, Miss
Mary Glenn, was surrounded by
her fairies, dressed gorgeously, pre-
sented a beautiful appearance
Dressed for the Party" another
pretty tableau, by Miss Mary Glenn
in party costume, looking back at
her gallant, Granville Howeth, who
was offering her bouquet.
The medley tableau" consisted
of all the tableaux gracefully posed,
making beautiful closing scene for
the evenings entertainment.
The program was interspersed
with instrumental Duets and solos
by Misses Goforth and Payne.
The receipts of the evening was
$4,000, which will go to the Baptist
church fund.

Value of Rice.

Japan, the Philippine islands, the
Sunda islands and 1ndo-Chlna are
probably the regions in which the
great bulk of the entire population
live mainly on rice. In India and
China there are certain regions, and
these in many cases the most popu-
lous; where rice is likewise the
mainstay of the inhabitants. Still
it is estimated that, if we take Brit
ish India as a whole, only about
ore-third of the population is rice
eating, and, since the native states
lie mainly outside Of the regions
suitable for rice cultivation, it may
safely be inferred that much
smaller proportion of the inhabi-
tauts of these states live on rice.
Probably 75,ooo,ooo is as much as
as can be allowed to the relocating
population of the entire peninsula,
including lower Burmah. In China,
again, rice is the great food crop
only in the south and east, aud
probably 400, 900, 600 (three-fifths
of an assumed population of AGO.
900, ooo) will be much more than
enough toaallow for the rice eating
people of that country; and allow
ing SIS, 900, 900 for the rice-ea,ing
