About the best way to avoid fakirs
is to patronize the merchants of your
own city. They are here doing bus
mess all the time and it is to their
interests to give you square deal,
for the very good reason that they
want your patronage in the future.
The travelling man who advertises
himself with his mouth as being able
to undersell local dealers usually
talks through his tile; is generally
an irresponsible cuss who will not
hesitate for an instant to take ad-
vantage of the unsuspecting people
who believe what he says. His goods
are very seldom equal to those of the
home merchant and when they prove
unsuitable, or not what was ordered
he is out of the country and an ex-
change cannot be made. Recent
fakes have Taught some of our people
q serious lesson, but the game will
probably be played as long as the
world stands.-Lsramie Republican

silk, or hemp. Every year we pay
about $1O0,OOO,OOO, or $1.35 for
every man, woman, and child in the
country, to foreign countries for
sugar. Indeed, out of more than
1000, 900 tons of sugar which the
United States consumes annually we
produce a paltry 100000 tons, most
ly from the cane fields of Louisiana.
This does not include the produc-
tion Of the new island possessions,
Porto Rico, Hawaii, and the Philip
pines; but these would add only 46O,
600 tons to our production, still
leaving us to obtain much more than
half of our sugar from the foreign
er. And all this in the face Of the
fact that so good an authority as

why Do We Import Sugar.

Sugar is one of the few great com.

the United States is weak and de.
pendent. In almost all the great
necessaries of life-food, clothing,
fuel, and shelter-the country is
more than self-supporting, but in
the matter Of sugar we are largely
dependent on foreign supplies. And
our sugar bill is the largest by far
of any of our foreign accounts

The Event Of the Season at s

The Event Of the Season at s.
NJ. IrvIn's
1t was ladies' day in town and they
came in twos threes and in crowds,
came early and fingered. There was
much to be seen and it was thoroughly
appreciated. The millinery depart
ment was the shrine to which all gath
cred in admiration of the toques, tur-
bans, picture hats, bonnets, ETC., where
a collection of Chicago, New York and
Detroit styles were on display. To
single out for description is task too
difficult we can only mention some
of the most striking models. A beau
tiful picture hat of gold and white
helped to adorn the window. The gold
tissue crown with its soft tucked lib.
erty silk facing and flowing ties toned
by black ribbon velvet, gave alto
gether a charming effect. An enor-
nous black mushroom design, draped
in straw braid with yards of shirred
maline for the facing, black violets
and gold ornament were added for
the finishing touch. A very chic hat
was Spanish turban edged with
black and gold spangle, the crown
being entirely covered with black
crushed satin roses, a broad alsatian
bow caught with gold ornament fin
ished the back. A red poppy hat
was particular attraction. Miss
Gauld is certainly an artist to design
the variety of beautiful hats that were
displayed at Irwin's millinery opening

An Increase In Tenant Farming.

While there has been a decided
increase in tenant farming during
the past ten years as shown by a
preliminary review of the census Of
1890 it does not follow that this has
been at the expense of those who
originally owned there own fans, as
the number of farm owners has also
largely incrsased. It means, there
fore, that large number of men
who formerly worked for wages have
rented land and gone to farming on
their own hook and eventually pur-
chased the land.
Under these conditions the tenant
should seek that locality which will
enable him the sooner to buy his
own home. The Arkansas valley is
at the present offering exceptionally
good opportunities to this class Of
farmers. If you do not feel able to
purchase land just at the present
you can rent a ten, twenty or forty
acre tract as you desire. There is
probably no state in the Union where
less capital is required to carry on
farming operations. If you can
farm successfully in any state, you
can in few years get rich in Colo
RADIO, so favorable are the conditions.
Last year number Of farmers in the
Arkansas valley made sufficient
money by growing beets on rented
land to enable them to purchase the
land in the fall and pay the full cash
price. What other state can show
like results the first year of the es-
tablishment of a new industry. Out
of the thousands of beet growers in
the valley last year we do not call
to mind single instance of dissatis
faction with the crop as money
maker. On the contrary they are
almost unanimously in favor of in
creasing their acreage.-Sugar City

Senator Farwelrs Maiden speech

Senator FarWell's Maiden Speech.
Senator Farwell made his first
extended speech in the senate last
Monday. The revenue bill was up
for consideration, and in the final
vote Senator Farwell was one of four
senators who voted against the IN cas-
ure. His speech was pronounced
the most effective in opposition of
any, The Denver News of last
Monday gave Mr.. Farwell the fol-
lowing complimentary notice:
"The closing speech was made by
the republican member, Senator
Farwell, and was listened to with
marked attention by the floor, and re-
ceived with applause from the gallery.
This was his first extended speech
since he took his seat.
"His reasons for opposing the bill
were numerous. In the first place,
he thought if the present laws of
the state were enforced they would
yield a sufficient revenue. He did
not think the bill just one, believ-
ing its heaviest weight would rest
upon small storekeepers and farmers.
Neither was he in favor of compell-
ing the patrons of justice courts to
pay tribute. He was not in favor
of the flat tax nor of assessing the far
mer who had $3.50 worth of wheat and
allowing the miner who had S15C
worth of ore "blocked out" in his
mine to go scot free. He could not
see the beauty of the inquisitorial
section (47,) believing it would set
neighbor against neighbor, or in the
difficulties which he predicted woulo
arise in enforcing this proposed law
He concluded by saying he was will
ing the democratic party should have
all the glory and honor accruing from
the passage of the law; he had op
posed it, and when the fact was tax
en- into consideration that the party
that framed and pushed it through
was party with financial RECORD
of complete failure, perhaps the bill
was all that ought to be expected

Massey Investigation Con-
tinued Last Night Behind
Closed Doors

Police Commissioners ClarksOn and
Pyle heard more testimony last night
in the charges against Chief of Police
Eugene Massey. The session lasted
until 1890 o'clock this morning
The leading point I'm the investiga-
tion is whether Chief Massey knew
gambling houses existed in Whining
ton and made no efforts to suppress
them. Many witnesses appeared be-
fore the board and gave testimony in
the case Among them were Captain
Kane Captain Black. Sergeant Bayley.
and PatrOlmen Pierce Davidson, Ward
Brown. Fox, Ralston and McGiHion.
AS before the examination was con-
Quoted behind closed doors When the
meeting adjourned the commissioners
refused to give any information OF
what had taken place but It was learn
ed that all the evidence to be present
ed by the board had been heard and
that Chief Massey had asked that the
next meeting be held on Wednesday
evening, January 1. in order that he
may summon witnesses in his own de-
fense. The chief again was represent
ed by John p Nields, while City So
licitor Reinhardt was present as the

INDIGNATION EXPRESSED.
Much indignation is being expressed
at the manner in which the investiga
ton is being conducted Chairman
Zebley, of the Police Committee o
Council, applied for admission into th'
hearing last night, but was refused
The reason given by City Solicitor
Reinhardt was that he had advised
the commissioners to hold the investi
cation in private. as some of the wit
nesses would not make statements
the public We're admitted.
It is argued, however. that Chic
Massey is a public Official, is paid b.
the public, and therefore the publi
should be allowed to know whethe
the evidence is for or against him.
