-, June Is. 1900.
You will not be surprised to lear1
that the symptoms of politics are no
ticeable even in me to such degree
that this letter even will reflect then
when l tell you that here in Washing
ton the main questions fact, as fa]
as l have been able to ascertain with
the white class, the only questions
are those pertaining to "Give us this
day our daily Bread" and "Give III
this day the most sensational politica
news" Every man and woman, anc
| might as we'll say child, are reading
the newspapers in this city. "Whal
is the latest maneuvre made by Tam
many?'' "What has Roosevelt said p
"Where is Bryan!'' "Will Charley
Towne, of Minnesota, gracefully with
draw his candidacy for vice-president
if he be given the promise to be ap
pointed Secretary of the Interior in
case Bryan gets elected?' "What is
Marcus Aurelius Hanna, of Ohio, do
ing?' "What will be the Republican
platform?" ''What are the affairs in
China?" "When will the South AT.
rican war close?"- these are the ques.
tions asked everywhere and by every.
body, at least two times day. The
people of this city are reading pub.
lie, deeply and fast dyed in politics
But it is only natural. They reflect
the form of government and tell of the
stability of its foundation. It means
that the American government is
founded where the people are founded
that our institutions are built upon
pillars ''carved from the rock of eter-
nal TRUTH
The two questions of political ma
ture now occupying the lions share of
attention are the Republican Conven-
tion at Philadelphia and what the out
come Of the pending campaign will be.
By the time your readers will read
this they all know the answer to the
first question, but at this stage of the
game it looks as if Roosevelt would be
forced to accept the nomination of
vice-president. We have entertained
hopes that this hero, statesman and
scholar, all in one personality, could
have been spared to lead the G. o. p.
to victory four years hence, for truly
there is no greater patriot or more

Chanute Has Prospects.

The Chanute Sun has the following
report of the factory application
made to tie city council recently:
A representative of the Independent
Smelter Co., of Webb City, Mo-, was
present seeking a bonus. He pro-
posed to put in $300, 600 plant here,
find his own land and everything and
on the day the fires were started in the
smelter the city should give him So, -
600 bonus. The pay roll was to reach
$4,000 month and POO men will be
employed, The council decided to
think it over for day.
Messers. G. w. Slater and j. n.
Tigner, of Joplin, Mo-, next came
forward with proposition to put in
an ice plant and guarantee the trade a
retail price of 30 and 40 cents a hun
dred. Their first proposition was
for the city to give them water at 6
cents per 1000 gallons two ears and
pay 500 toward putting down and
completing gas we'll. 1t seemed
difficult to agree and finally Mr., Allen
made this offer; If they would sink
well for gas within the city limits
to the depth of $50 feet, providing of
course, they did not strike gas at a
lesser depth, the city should give them
$50, 600 gallons of water a month for
one year free, whether they struck gas
or not. No decision was reached
either way, but the last offer remains
as basis to figure from when me-
gotiations are renewed.

The Zinc Ore Market.

The zinc ore market has opened this
week practically on the basis of last
week so far as has been reported. The
Lanyon Zinc company has bought
some ore on the basis of S24 for 60 per
cent zinc, deducting for moisture and
all gGngue contents, and paying eX-
.clusiyely for the metal contents. Ore
that will assay go per cent clear will
bring S24, with 81 more for each | per
cent of assay. The deductions for
moisture run from . to 8 per cent.
Deductions for iron are made at the
rate of 81 ton for each | per cent or
fraction. 1t is estimated that on this
plan of purchase the average grade of
62 per cent ore will bring about $25 a
ton, the price running no higher
on account of the gangue contents
shown. There is some clear ore, how
ever, which will run to S26.
Deductions for moisture mean that
the Ier cent shown in the assay sre
made from the gross weight. For in
stance, if the assay indicates per
cent moisture, per cent of the gross
weight of the ore is deducted.
This plan of purchase has been uni
versally adopted by the Lanyon Zinc
company and the Cherokee-Lanyon
Spelter company. Other companies
are testing the plan, excepting the two
Oldest ones-the Matthiessen &
Hegeler Zinc company and the Illinois
Zinc company.-Joplin News-Herald.

In Regard to State Twine.

EDITOR REGISTER:-In view of the
fact that certain local dealers have
been using their influence against the
sale of binder twine made by the State
and directly for the sale of twine
made blythe plutrocratic trusts,and Re-
publican gold bug monopolies, by
circulating the report that the twine
made by the State was poor stuff, !"
lumpy, would not work in the binder,
etc, we whose names are hereto at
tached are anxious to state that we
have sold and used the State twine
and consider it equal to any sisal
twine on the market.
Consistency thou art indeed jewel
of the first water. We 'cuss" the
trusts and damn the monopolies and
then consistently back up ourhowlings
by discouraging the sale, of our pro.
ducts. The object of the State in put
ting out this product was to save the
farmers whole lot of money. 1t has
done so and would have done more,
had the dealers stood in with the
State instead of with the trusts and a
desire to add a few more shekels to
their own bank account.

in removing the pebble which was so
large that it completely filled the nos

Astonishing A Figures.

The cement plant is running right
along now, day and night, seven days
in the week and there is gradually
accommodating quite a little store of
cement in the ware room. 1t is esti-
mated that there are 1000 barrels on
hand at present, which means 5000
sacks, as four sacks are figured to the
barrel, although the output is figured
in barrels. An idea of the future
greatness of the plant will be gained
by figuring that when the entire plant
as planned is finished and running
with its daily output of 5000 barrels,
there will be 10000 sacks of cement
turned out every day. 1t would be a
nice little business to have the con-
tract to furnish 10000 sacks daily.
