If You want to see one of the ca lrSeS

railroad depot and see the amount of
white meat, corn and hay that comes TO
us from the west and north If North
Carolina would only raise enough of
these for home consumption the whole
State would feel the impulse of better
times. Raising cotton for cost to pay
for food ut profit means poverty and

Alcohol in Germany.

The Germans, it is said, are far in adj
vance. They have their own lamps. similar
to those of the French system. Burning
alcohol is now retailed in Berlin at cents
a quart, and carburated alcohol at 30 de-
greeS, will soon be retailed at q cents a
quart. Undoubtedly the domestic petroleum
lamp is seeing its last days in Europe.
In Paris by far the grea test sensation has
been made by the incandecent lamps. with
which M. Loubet is now lighting up the
courtyard of the Elysee. 1t is the same in
candescent system that is used at Potsdam
and in the Berlin Thiergarten. Indeed the
rush for incandescent burner patents is a
phenomenon of the hour in every European
country. There are incandescent alcohol
burners with wicks and without wicks with
points in common with each other and with
the gas burners of certain type-the extra
dnarily brilliant light and the extraordi-
nary fragility of the manchon or film
There is not the slightest doubt of their
successful application to alcohol

PATRONAGE WITHHELD
TO AID BURNS CAUSE

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Jan. 22.-The singular fact has
been commented upon by supporters Of all
the Senatorial candidates outside the
camp OF Colonel D. NJ. Burns. that Gov
ernor Henry T. Gage has not, cOmpara-
lively speaking, made any appointments
at all so far. He has not, up to date, gone
beyond the confines of his own law office
in the distribution of places which he has
al his disposition.
Every man, black or white, who was
directly or indirectly connected with his
Los Angeles law office the Governor has
placed in remunerative position. What
the politicians, outside of those support
Ing Colonel Burns, want to know is why
there are no other appointments being
made by Governor Gage.
An explanation is given by one promi-
nent leader and man who from the
stump rendered great service to the Re-
publican party in the recent campaign in
California. He said this evening:
Governor Gage is making no appoint
ments, for the reason that If he were to
go ahead and do so at this juncture he
would take all the wind out of the sails
of the Burns campaign. The claim is made
by the Burns men that the colonel has
the patronage of the State administration
out as the colonel recommends. This may
be true or II NAV not. But If Gage We're
to go ahead and make appointments now,
every office he filled would cut off one po-
sitOn which Col Burns supporters can
hold out as an inducement to secure for
their chief another vote for Senator. I
understand that Burns touts have al
ready promised about all the positions
Governor Gage has at his disposal, and
that they are now taking tie back track
and promising them over again.
My judgment is that the Governor, in
Difference TO Colonel Burns wishes, is
making no appointments now, and I be-
teVe that when he does make them they
will be made without regard to the prom
ises Burns supporters have given out
Gage is very unruly and stubborn man
He has his own ideas and opinions of
men and things, and ne is not going to
make appointments on the sole recon-
mendatiOn of anybody. He will insist on
knowing something of the man he ap-
points, something as to his character,
standing and ability"
1t is unquestionably true that the Burns
people are making lots of promises and
are still giving out the impression that
Colonel Burns has the State patronage
at his disposal. Governor Gage. has how
ever, never so stated and he has not given
any public promise that he will fulfil the
promises of Burns and his friends.

REVENUE CUTTER ALMA
DRIVEN ON PADRE ISLAND
Those Aboard Escaped to Land and
Will Be All Rescued in
Due Time.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex, Jan. 22-
The United States revenue cutter Alma
was driven on Padre Island, about fif-
teen miles south of here, Wednesday,
during a storm, and all on board es-
capped to land. There were several rev.
enue officers aboard. The party divid-
ed and each party wandered over the
island looking for a sail. James A. Nc
Emery, special treasury agent of the
District of Texas, and Redford Sharp,
Assistant United States District Attor-
ney of San Antonio, sighted a craft and
signaled it, and were taken off the
island and brought to the shipyard at
Corpus Pass. To-day another vessel
was sent to Padre Island to look for
the rest of the Alma's passengers, who
are Captain Laroche and John Laroche
Of Point Isabel, Henry Terrell of San
Antonio and Walter Hudnell of Sabine
Pass, special treasury inspector. They
had sufficient food to last them a week,
and it is thought they will be located
before actual suffering commences.

States is about equally divided between

At the present time there are sta
toned in Atlantic waters two battle
ships. two armored cruisers, one sec
ond-class battleship, six protected and
unprotected cruisers and twelve gun
boats. The combined commands of
Rear Admirals Dewey and Commodore
Kautz consists of two battleships, two
coast defense monitors, six cruisers, in
cluding the Newark, and sixteen gun
boats, which number all of the vessels
captured from Spain at Manila, three
of which are now undergoing repairs at
Hongkong. There are also a number
of auxiliary cruisers, GOLFERS and sup
ply ships. The assignment of the New
ark to the Pacific is due to the neces-
sity of having q cruiser on the Pacific
coast to replace the Philadelphia, which
will leave by Wednesday next for Sa-
moa, orders having been given to push
work on the Newark so that she may be
ready to sail early in February. The
