WHEN THE
 TIME ARRIVES

For the city officials to take the oath of oT1ce here in Waterbury the tax payers will be on the verge of nervous pr0srration. because all the candidates WAo have been declared elected nave iould out they received so many lie gal ballots that they cannot consciell- Uos1sly take the offices; and the other fellows won't take them because a ma 10rity of the voters said they dldn want them, and the latter's pride Tar exceeds their rights. Therefore the taxpayers predicament will be rather serious However, we hope both par ties will come together and reach some understanding whereby we will. at least, have office holders enough 10 run the city. If they will only come together, we know everything twill come out all right in the wash. say, speaking of washing, just brings 10 our mind those bottles we nave dis played in our window. They are filled with the best washing fluid made in This country; each bottle contains enough of the duid to do four wash 1ngs; the price is 15c; in other words. 4c per washing, and you won't feel bit tired after using it. Just think of doing your washing in less than haiT the time it usually takes. and no tired feeling afterwards. We still give four bars of soap with pound of our 5Oc tea at

We Will Haya Ch3auef Sugar.


 Hardly any branch of agriculture is 90 profitable as sugar beet raising where the soil is favorable and fac tory is at hand. The manufacture of sugar at present prices is abnormally profitable where 1t can be carried on on a sufficiently large scale. But most of the cane-producing countries can produce little else. They must stay In the: business, and by improving their methods they can greatly reduce the cost of production. The world Is bound to have cheap sugar, and the profits Of culture and manufacturing will have to come down 10 normal rates.

New York, July i,--R, c. Dun g. Cos
weekly review Of trade says;
The country ls undeniably prosper
ous and with prospect OF an abundant
harvest TO supply our own needs and
increasing European deficiencies, the
situation ls viewed with confidence. A
few more labor disturbances have arls-
en- but Others have been settled, nota-
bly,, the dispute over the tin plate
scale. Some disOgrcements In the coal
regions at times assume n threatening
aspect, but tho troubles have been To-
cal. Reports from tho country speak
Of continual active movement of mer'
chandise with the jobbing trade and
embracing nearly all lines,
The fiscal year closes with conditions
in the iron and coal industry In mark
ed contrast to the situation Mt cores
ponding date In 1900. Quotations were
then receding rapidly without stimu-
lating activity, idleness was tho rule
At furnaces and mills aud wage scales
were under serious discussion, with
employers and labor organizations far
apart in their views. This year diff
Guilty Ia experienced in stopping ma
chlnery long enough to make ncces-
sary repairs. Prices are well main
tanned and steady, without unreason-
able imitation. Construction proceeds
at an unprecedented pace, 30 that
structural material, builders hardware
and kindred goods find ready purchas
ers Railway facilities are inadequate
to handle expanding traffic, and shops
are crowded with orders for new
freight cars and other equipment
Wheat prospects are further improv-
ed throughout the entire producing re-
gion. More satisfactory to the pro-
ducer than evidences Of banner
yield Is the failure OF quotations to
show tho commensurate decline, for
there is good profit at the present
prices. Foreign needs continue the
sustaining influence. The price of
corn is supported by reports OF injury,
and receipts are less than half last
year, but the export movement is
equally unsatisfactory. Many reports of
injury to growing cotton tend to ad-
vance prices in the face OF heavy re-
ceipts Of the old crop

TWENTY. THOUSAND IDLE.
All Union Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers Included In Order.
MEN EXPLAIN THEIR DEMAND.

Plttsburg, Pa, July "A definite
order for general strike OF All union
sheet steel workers was issued by Pres
ident Il, J. ShafIer, of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers. There are over 10000 men
affected by this order, and every mill
operated by the American Sheet Com
pany where union men are employed
all over the country will close indef-
initely or until such time as settle
ment Of the matters in dispute has
been reached.
The officials Of the American Sheet
Steel Company refuse to discuss the
troubles with tho workmen.
The Amalgamated Association asked
that non.union plants now operated by
the combine be turned over TO the
union and be governed by the same
rules at tho union mills, The officials
Of the company declined 10 consider
the proposition at oil.
The strike order in general will take
from the non.union plants all union
men working there, ms we'll as from the
union mills, The men explain their
demand for the unionizing Of all the
mills OF the combine by stating that
last year the combine had taken advan-
tage OF tho situation in its having the
non.union mills operating 6rst and
leaving unorganiaed mills stand idle
until the pressure Of business forced
them to start.
1t was resolved by the men at the
time that such chance should never
occur again for the company That 1t
would be either all union mills or all
non-unon mills To gain this point
no change in the scale was asked, but
n demand for unioniaing all the mills
was made definite.

A Juryman Tells Why,

III Dorado, June 20, r, NJ, Rowland,
one OF the jurors, said '"rhe jury on
the final windup took Miss Morrison's
story of the afPray as the true one;
that is, we believed that Mrs. Castle
called her into tho house and began
the quarrel. But one Of the instruc'
tions of the court was thatif we found
that Jessie continued to use tho razor
after she had disarmed Mrs. Castle and
was out OF danger herself, then she
should be held for manslaughter.
That is how we happened to return
the verdict of manslaughterr." After
the verdict Miss Morrison tainted
twice in tho court room and four timer
that afternoon in her cell.
