! Gentlemen: At this, our third an
nual meeting, we may congratulate our
/ selves that there is something to talk
about besides expenditures. The time
/ and money spent since February, 1897,
/ have brought their first returns in our
maiden crop of 1900 tons of sugar, or a
yield averaging about Z u tons per acre.
Had everything been favorable no
| doubt this yield would have been larg-
| er. but it was so late before we could
! plant that our seed cane had become
/ hard and poor. when added to the eX-
! tremely cold weather gave the cane a
severe setback. Our mill not being
ready on time, no doubt some of the
cane had begun to deteriorate before it
could be harvested and ground. (See
mill report.) However, taking every
thing into consideration, | think we
! have done well, and have no cause to
complain about the result
! Our mill is one that we may be proud
! of, il is a success in every way, al
though the crushing department did
not show the extremely high results
reported by some older mills, still with
a few trifling alterations, suggested by
/ experience, we have the very finest
! plant in these Islands, and capable OF
| handling an enormous crop.
The next crop will be taken from
about / 500 acres of plant cane and 15O
acres of ratOOns. 1t looks well, and
some of the earliest planted has been
pronounced by several planters, OF
years of experience, as the very finest
they ever saw. We have taken off a
considerable area of ratoons for seed

AMONG NOTED MEN.

Thomas B. Reed will probably be
succeeded in congress by Amos l..
Allen, who has served as Mr.. Reeds
private secretary since the distinguish
ed man from Maine first became speak
er of the house. All that Mr. Allen
lacks is the nomination, as the casting
of the ballots in this case is merely
perfunctory. proceeding. 1t is now APP
parently certain, however, that he will
receive the nomination. A special
election will be called as soon as Mr..
Reed forwards his resignation 10 the
governor. Mr. Allen is one of the best
known republicans in the state. He
has always taken a deep interest in
political affairs and has frequently
been honored by his party. He has
served as representative from lis town
in the legislature, and for many years
was the clerk of York county. He was
a classmate OF MI Reed at Bowdoin
college, and at that time a lasting
friendship was formed. 1t was in the
class of 1860 that these two men were
graduated
Major General Shafser will have

months, and it is said his friends are

reason OF the acquisition Of the PHI

change in its commander just at this

GETTING WARM FOR BILLY BOY

1t is a most trying situation THAT now
comforts Bryan. His followers ara

being called upon to take sides
When he arrived in Chicago prior tC
the recent conference of democrats
he found the Altgeld f1ctioa arrayed
against the Harrison fao-Hon. Both
factions are for silyIsr and for him.
There were overtures from both sizes

A HEALTHFUL CLIMATE.

A few days ago a mob TOOK pris-
oner from the Jail at Alma, and after
knocking him in the head with a heavy
sledge, tied a rope arouno his neck
dragged him through the streets, and
then throwing the rope over limb
| elevated him in the atmosphere and
! left him hanging there for the space OF
six minutes.
All this, of course, IS ancient news
Everybody in Kansas who reads, and
nearly everybody does read in Kansas,
has heard of the circumstances. The
reason we refer to the occurrence is TO
call the attention of the jewellers an
the malarial and microbial regions OF
the effete east to the further fact that
after being knocked in the head with
a twenty-five pound sledge, dragged
several blocks by the neck and then
left swinging for six minutes in the
soft summer air, the negro Williams
is still alive and feeling quite we'll.
We ask IN calmness and with all
modesty, where is there i state that
can show up a climate of such health
giving and recuperating qualities? We
might say that echo answers no
where" Echo would answer that if it
could, but Kansas is no place for
echos The echo dwells among the
hills and rocks where it can get a
chance to back up against the srde OF
hill so steep that the busy goat
stands on it's head to crop the scanty
heritage; in the country where the legs
of men grew uneven i'll length from
following side hill plows, and the
horny handed tiller of the soil can
stand on the crest of his farm and spit
a mile.
Is mere any other locality, we ask,
where man can be hanged by the
mack for two minutes or even one min
ute and get up feeling tolerably we'll
the next week even, to say nothing OF
being ready for work the next day?
OF course not. Yet here is a man who
was dragged and hanged for seven or
eight minutes, all told, and feels in
fairly good shape the next day

IL the capitalists of Prescott would
take hold of the summer resort propo-
sition in earnest they might gather
in a substantial amount of Phoenix
money next summer. At least $780,
900 is spent annually by the people OF
the valley in seeking and enjoying a
cooler climate than the valley affords.
California gets the bulk of this money
now. 1t would be good business
for Prescott to provide sufficient at
fractions to secure at least a portion
of this wealth. 1t would help gen
orally to have this money spent in the

The time for taking the next CEN
sus approaches, and the additions tc
Phoenix are no nearer incorporation
than they were year ago. Do the
citizens of this town and its environs
think it would help Phoenix in Il bust
ness way to have the statement gr
to the world that the population has
not increased to any extent in the last
ten years? That kind of statement
will surely be made if the additions,
which have developed wonderfully
and are to all intents and purposes a
part of the city, are not incorporated
with the city before the census takers
begin thGr rounds. There ought 10 be
enough public spirit in the additions
