'Flagpoles," said man who makes
them, "are the pick OF the forest
whence they come. Up to sixty feet
in length. and this would include the
great majority, they are commonly
OF spruce. Flagpoles more than sixty
feet long are of pine.
1.-THE spruce poles come from New
Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The
pine poles come from northern New
York and Michigan.
up &c fifty feet in length. and a
1fty-foot staff would be counted a
good, big staff, flagpoles cost, all set
up, truck on the top and halliards
rove, ready to bend on the flag, from 81
to 81 25 a foot. Inc cost depends some
what on the situation. the latter Ques-
ton involving the difficulties attend
ing setting the pole up Longer poles
cost proportionately more A seven
ty-hve-foot pole might cost, set up
ready for use. $3.50 Flagpoles for
buildings are sometimes made up to
eighty feet in length, but not often
"A fifty-foot pole of the usual pro-
portions, which would be ten inches
in diameter at the butt and four
inches at the top, would weigh about
$50 pounds. A seventy-five-foot pole
would weigh about 1,500 pounds, SO
that when you put up pole of that
size you would be standing upon one
end a weight of three-quarters of a
ton.
"Of course, the flagpole must be
securely set up. There are two ways
of mounting flagpole. One is to
step it. running the lower end OF
the pole through the roof as you
would run mast through the deck
Of boat. The other way is to set
the butt of the pole in shoe placed
on the roof The very tallest poles
are always stepped through the roof
"a good flagpole, properly put UP
and properly cared for, is long-lived;
it might wear as long as the building
on which it was placed. A flagpole
really ought to be painted every year
Flagpole painting is done by the rig
gers employed by flagpole makers
by steeple climbers, by men who
make a business of it, who go about
seeking flagpoles to paint. To have
a flagpole carefully and properly
painted costs, according to the size
of the pole, S. to so.
"Flagpoles are made nowadays
rather longer, if anything, than form
erly Their greater length is to
make them more nearly proportion.
ate to the higher buildings.
There are now sold more flagstaffs
than ever before in proportion to the
population. There has been an in
crease in this respect in the past
few years. This has been due some
what to the Spanish-American war
The law requiring the flying of the
flag from school houses has increased
the actual number of poles. and the
presence of those poles and the fly
ing of the flag from them has
prompted the raising of other poles
I think, also, that people are more
likely now to put up flagpoles thar
they formerly were, anyway. that they
have more disposition now than eyel
to show their colors-"

II should be remembered that the beet
sugar industry ia primarily an agricul.
tural industry and that the farmers have
a greater interest in its success than any
other class of our population, says the
Beet Sugar Gazatte. In what way the
beet sugar industry benefits the farmers
has been repeatedly explained at length
in these columns. 1t is therefore unneces-
sary at the present time TO go into the
subject again; suffice it to say thar the
direct returns to the farmer from grow
ing beets are greater than from almost
any other crop, without counting the
great value of the by products of sugar
manufacture, which are returned TO
HIM, chief among which is the beet
pulp, which is being recognized more
and more as an exceedingly valuable
stock feed. Then there are the indirect
advantages, chief among which Is the
fact that sugar beet culture leads 10 in.
tensive and scientific farming, and
emaucipates the farmer from the acct
dents OF climatic conditions and
changes, which, under the present sys-
TEN, where farmers confne themselves
largely to one or 5wo crops, make them
the victims of speculation in the great
markets of the world Any fight against
the beet sugar industry means direct
fight against the farming population of
the United States. This is matter
which our representatives in congress
ought TO bear in mind, ana it is a matter
to which their attention ought to be
called by all persons who have the in
terest Of the beet sugar industry at heart
II there is to be any game of politics in
this matter az all, II Is well to point ont
20 the party in power that their main
reliance in the past has been the farmer,
who has been voting for protection for
great many years, but has been getting
very little benefit out OF 1t. For the
most part the benefit of protection has
gone TO the manufacturers in industries
far less closely associated with agricul-
tural pursuits than is the beet sugar in
dustry. Here is case where protection
directly benefits the farmer, and any
action which will tend TO weaken or
destroy this industry will strike blow
at the prosperity of our farming popula-

Justice Furches and Associate Justice
Douglas, of the North Carolina Supreme
Court, rested their case at D o'clock this

hearing rebuttai testimony offered by
prosecution. It is expected that all eVi-
Gence will be in by noon Tomorrow. pro-
vided the prosecution doesn't put Justice

on a very lively time is expected.
The witness for the defense to-day was
Justice Mont tgonlery, whose testimony
was very harsh against Justice Clark. so
much SO that it is believed Clark will
demand to testify in self-defense
TAINTED WITH POLITICS.
Montgomery testified that Judge Clark
caused the whole trouble III the ONCE
holding cases, that when opinions or q ma
iority of the court were in favor of DEM
ocr,.tic otfice-holders Judge Clark would
concur but in cases of Republican office
holders would offer dissenting opinion.
He said CIark's judicial opinions were
tainted with politics. Montgomery tes-
timony was wholly in favor OF the accused
judges and rigid cross-examination by
Hon. C. 3. Watson failed TO develop any
advantage for the prosecution.
REFUSED TO ANSWER.
At one time Judge Montgomery refused
to answer questions unless propounded
by Watson more respectfully and he be-
allowed to answer one question TO his
satisfaction before another was fired
at him; that the questions asked in-
volved his personal integrity and the con-
duct of his associates on the Supreme
Court bench. Mr.. Watson said he had
not intended TO be disrespectful and
changed his method. The defense offered
expert testimony as to the legality OF
the course of the judges in issuing the
Ynandamus and in their ruling in the
White case, but it was ruled out by the
court.

duced as experts were: Judge j. G. Nc

COUNTERVAlLING DUTY
Added to Regular One Makes Excess Over
Invoice Value.
(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, March 2O-The protest of
Gustave Ajahn & Company against the
assessment OF countervailing duty on a
lot of Russian sugar imported by them
was sent to the Board of United States
General Appraisers to-day.
The sugar in question was produced
and refined in Russia, although it was
shipped via Hamburg. The invoice value
was slo,ss2; the regular duty was s1s,o1s
The countervail1ns duty assessed was
Si.S21. The regular and extra duty to-
gether thus exceed the invoice value of
the sugar.
