Twentieth United States infantry at
Fort Leavenworth has received orders
Indicating that 1t will be sent to Manila
to relieve one Of the volunteer regi-
ments or to increase the force already

The first intimation that the regi-
ment was ito be sent to the far east came
days ago in the form Of a order
from the wal department. notifying the
officers to make requisition for such
clothing and supplies as will be needed
In a tropical climate.
Orders have now arrived for the reei-
ment to be in readiness to move or
short notice. 1t Is believed that 1t will
be on it's way to San Francisco.
The Twentieth was in all the fight
ing around Santiago.
The regiment still lacks about 173
men Of it's var footing, but is rapidly
being recruited to it's full strength.

and the future Cuban government will
make Its own treaties. Exactly what
Spain requested was that her ships and
products should be accorded the same
privileges in Cuba and Porto Rico for
a period ct ten years as had been on
coded to Spain in the Philippines. This
request was supported by the preced-
ents in the cases of the Louisiana and
Florida, when the products and ships OF
France and Spain were admitted to the
ports of New Orleans, Pensacola and St.
Augustine for twelve years the same as
those Of the United States. In the case
Of the purchase of Louisiana the same
privileges were extended to the ships of
Spain, because she had coded Louisiana
to France three years previously.
When the commissioners emerged
from the foreign office this evening af-
ter their long session, Judge Day, presi-
dent of the American commission, an
nounced that all requests had been set
tied and that the treaty would be sign
ed in three of four days. The work re-
manning consists largely in drafting IN

BREWERS KICK.
VIII Ask Congress to Abolish War Tax
On Beer.

New York, Dec. 6.-Brewers repre-
senting IS per ent Of the beer manufac-
turers IN the United States will hold a
special meeting in this city Wednesday.
The congress has been called by the
United States Brewers association.
Delegates Will attend from all over the
country.
II is stated that 1t Is the object Of the
brewers to pass resolutions calling up
on congress to abolish the war TAI on
beer. The delegates present will repre-
sent a capital Of more than $400, 00O, 900.
This will be the first time in the his
tory OF this city or any other city where
70 many millionaire brewers have gath
cred in one hall at the same time.
Just what action will be taken toward
having the war tax on beer repealed
has not been decided yet. 1t is likely.
however, that a delegation OF brewers
will be directed to go to Washington
and ask the president to ask congress
to abolish the tax.

orally cooperate and these occasions
are made gala events which our enter

proud Of. AS the state yearly pro-
crosses in new lines OF Thought and &C.

tive to inaugural receptions. and from
present indications. Hon. DeForest
Richards will enter upon his duties in
january, not only assured Of the hear

capital city has exerted more pains md
shown more interest in usherine their

THE TWENTY-FOURTH REGIMENT
Concerning the Twenty-fourth regi-
ment. part Of which is at Fort Russell,
Cheyenne, and the rest at Fort Douglas.
Salt Lake, and Fort Logan, Denver, the
Sun-Leader says:
Preparations for a probable departure
are still under way at Fort Douglas.
Field service is agreeably anticipated
among officers and men alike, and liter
ature from Manila and Honolulu is read
more eagerly than ever before.
As to the time Of departure, 1t was
learned that the war department would
more than likely defer definite orders.
pending the passage of the army bill in
congress this month.
This bill provides for the increase Of
the regular army to 1907 900 men.
For instance. should the proposed in
crease be effected, it is perfectly reason
able to infer that whatever changes
transpire, those regiments most Injured
to the tropics would be selected to gar
rtson the Philippine islands. The
Tw~enty-for-th and Twenty-ifth, both
colored. would stand pre-emdnent in
such a selection and would be the first

FAVORS STATE AID.
The Cost of Building Good Roads Should
Not Fall on the Farmer Alone.

The League of American Wheelmcn
has been the subject of much criticism
on account of its agitation for better
highways We have been accused OF
seltishness III the matter. 1t is believed
by many that we wheelmen expect
farmers to load themselves up with
taxes that they might build roads fol
the convenience of bicycle riders. Nc
greater mistake could be made, says OF
to Dorner We of the League of Ameri-
can Wheelmen, who are engaged i'll this
agitation fer better reads feel that the
farmer today bears his full share OF
public taxation, and that it should not
be unnecessarily added to. We feel that
"a mistake has been made i'll the past III
expecting farmers alone to pay fol
building roads, and i'll leaving the en-
tire responsibility for our roads i'll theil
hands.
The farmers of the United States are
but fraction of our population, and
they are by no means the only ones who
will profit by the construction of good
roads 1t is claimed that i'll the state OF
New York every farmer is obliged t.
build roads for eight persons out of the
states population. Why should not the
other seven contribute to the cost.
While, good roads would save the farm,
ers immense amounts i'll hauling prod
ucts, this saving would indirectly bene.
fit the whole population. Neither is the
farmer the only one who travels the
country highways. Country merchants,
doctors and professional men, peddlers,
pleasure see kers and, last but not least,
the wheelmen, would be directly bene.
fitted by good roads. 1t is unjust, there.
fore. that the farmers should pay fol
building these roads.

Profits Of Good Roads.

Now, as to the profits in GOO! roads.
The towns and cities which have made
entrance easy find that trade thereby
comes to them. Farmers desert old
markets for the new oues, although the
old markets may be nearer home, being
influenced by the knowledge of how
much cheaper large loads may be hauled
over we'll made roads. OF course they
buy where they sell, and one consequent
gratifying result is competition be
tween business centers in the matter Of
good roads. New York Post.

A Great Temptation.

the Virginia penitentiary In his congrc-
cation was one Washington Mills, a con-
Wet from buckingham county, and u
preacher, too, a 'Zorter,' as he styled
himself before he became an inmate of
our state hotel.
The minister, wishing to learn some
thing of the history of Mills crime, asked
him what he was imprisoned for.

nothing of the sort has been done for
the common public road. 1t has been
the stepchild of great nation. Equally
important in its way with the railroad,
it has been left to shift for itself while
the steel highway which spans the
country from ocean to ocean has been
petted and pampered until it has grown
fat
1t is this injustice to the common
road that the League of American
Wheelmen is trying to remedy, and i'll
this effort it looks for assistance from
those who are most directly interested
in the subject-the farmers of the Unit
ed States Farmers are beginning to APP
preciate this, and hence it is that our
work for state aid is continually gain
ing support among them. | am conf
dent that the combined efforts of our or

members, and Of the agricultural So
cieties and oranges will. in few years,

1t would seem to me about as wise to
place a close time on picking blueberries
ON our wild lands, during the summer
months, for the purpose Of increasing the
yield, as to restrict the taking of porgies
when they present themselves to us for
that purpose.
1t would seem to me that il any re-
striction of fishing for them is to be OF
any benefit in increasing their number
or of regulating the business it should
be sought for through Congress where
all the states on the Atlantic coast would
be affected alike.
The porgy is exclusively an American
production. and their habitation, the
waters OF the Atlantic states, exclusively
controlled by he states. A proper con
sideration and investigation OF the sub
ject aud action by Congress l think
would be benefit to the business. But
this is not likely to be done at present,
for the fish are yet being taken in enor-
nous quantities south, and the market
for the productions of them we'll supplied,
so much SO that the present price for the
oil is now quoted at an average of less
than % cents gallon. At such prices no
one could engage in the business in Maine
with gilI-nets with any prospect of sue
cess. And nobody in eastern Maine
seems to have confidence in the revival of
this once very profitable business to pre-
pare for it in the future.
