Beet Growers Fear Cuban Annexation.

Beet sugar growers OF my State were
very tubilant over the defeat of the
House Cuban reciprocity BILL" said J.
H. Brown. of Detroit. at the New Will
lard yesterday. but it seems their jubi-
lation is not destined to be Of long du-
ration.
The temporary defeat Of the Cuban
reciprocity measure has only seemed to
hasten the annexation Of Cuba, and with
the annexation of the island comes free
sugar, which the beet sugar growers do
not want. II would have been better
for the beet sugar industry to have ac-
cepted 25 per cent reduction in the
tarif than to run the risk of free sugar,
which will mean a very hard blow TO the
men who have invested their money In
beet sugar factories.
Il believe there will be very lively
discussion on this subject next winter,
when the question comes up in the Sem
ate, whether in the form of a reciprocity
treaty with Cuba or the House Cuban
reciprocity bill. In the meantime, how
ever Cuba is having a hard struggle, and
with growing internal dissensions the
outlook is indeed dark for the young re-
public

The Last Camp Fire.
BY sHARLoT NJ: HALL.

Scar not earth's breast that may have
Somewhere above her heart a grave;
Mine was life whose swift desire
Bent ever less to dust than fire;
Then through the swift, white path Of

Send back my soul to whence 1t came;
From some great peak, storm chal-
lenging,
My death Are to the heavens fling;
The rocks my altar, and above
The still eyes Of the stars l love;
No hymn. save as the midnight wind
Comes whispering to seek his kind.
To be, n nature will, at length
Part OF some great trees noble
strength
Growth of the grass to live anew
In many q wild flowers richer hue;
Find Immortality indeed
In ripened heart OF fruit and seed.

From next years hillsides something

WHY THE GRAND ARMY
SHOULD PROTECT ITS INTERESTS


the old soldier in the matter of enacting laws for
his protection cannot but bear good fruit.
This is in no sense political scheme, for the
Grand Army is not political organization 1t is SIM
ply movement in the direction Of self protection,
and it has my hearty support.
Laws passed thirty years ago for the granting of
pensions sll rig. tnen, but they do not fit the
case of the old soldier now. The veteran does not
make the discovery until he applies for pension and
then he learns there is law to fit his and he
must apply to Congress for relief.
The money paid out in pensions by the Government
is never missed by the taxpayer because it goes back
to the taxpayer through the channels of trade.
The Government cannct be too liberal in the mat
ter of granting pensions to the worthy veterans,
thousands of whom never apply for pension until
the hand of misfortune strikes them heavily. For this
the pension laws passed thirty years ago
ought to be codifcd and made applicable to the thou
sands of applications pending before the Pension
Office. The people never begrudge the money paid
out in pensions to the soldier, his widow and
phans.

Loves Link.
BY AGNES LEE.

A sad procession sought the church
at noon of day;
A weeping girl along the winding sum-
mer way
Followed the slow-borne bier where
mute her lover lay.
Adown that lowered path there came a
bridal band;
The radiant wife stepped proudly,
strong OF heart and grand
With all the solemn Joy Of Loves still
wonderland.
White garmented like day dawned clear
with cloudless slriesl
Dark-robed like night o'ercast that sees
no star arise!
They met. they paused. they looked into
each others eyes.
And then. for swift is Loves converg-
Ing tide,
Behold. the young wife wept as she
turned aside
The hopeless girl who wept smiled on
the new-made bride!

The movement inaugurated to prevail upon the

next October to adopt resolution pedgng the organ

will give in writing promise to stand by the old
soldier and vote for all measures that will protect
and advance the interests of the veterans is in my
opinion, wise and proper The old soldier has
been too long used a catspaw by scheming poll
ticians to pull political preferment from the ballot
box, and the time has come to call halt
The only way the boys in blue who saved the
Union can make their power felt is to reward their
friends and punish their enemies. The Grand Army
for years has blindly followed one party and it has
followed that party until it has awakened to the fact
that it has neglected the interests of its organiza
ton. The Grand Army has also discovered that it has
as many warm friends and supporters among the
Democrats as among Republicans. This movement

A School Of Housekeeping.

There is q school of housekeep-
ing in Berlin which was founded
under the patronage and with the
active cooperation of the Empress
Frederick. It's history is some
what interesting.
The German is at once the most
conservative and the most progress
sive of men. Tenacious of old
customs and ideas, he yet dis
tances all other scientists in the
boldness and aggressiveness of his
research. The people of Berlin
did not at first take TO this school.
! Some of them said that the place
for girls to learn housekeeping
was in their own homes. The
founder of the school, Frau Heyl,
replied that if the standards of
! living were to be advanced, and the
discoveries of the chemist and the
bacteriolceist applied to house
keeping, as they surely ought to
| be-. it would be necessary for girls
! TO receive instruction from people
who were making a life study of
such subjects. The Empress sent
her own daughter as the first pu-
pill. Court families followed her
example, and the German public
was conquered.
We have not said the last word
! in regard TO women's education yet
here in America. Education for
girls cannot be complete unless it
either makes room or leaves room
for knowledge which will help
them in their home duties. Prob
ably the best way to meet this need
would be to establish elective
courses in high schools, academies,
and colleges. In the homes Of
many girls there is no opportunity
for the proper study of house
',eeping. The mother may have no
taste Tor 1t herself, or no gift for
imparting her own knowledge, or
no time for training her daughters
properly. Girls brought up in
such homes should have a chance
to learn in school the things which
the emergencies Of Life. On The
other hand, a girl whose mother is
a thoroughly good housekeeper,
whose talent is inherited by her
daughter, may find it more useful
to study in school the things which

Politics in Tar Heel State.

Politics are getting pretty warm in
the Tar Heel State" said Mr.. Blackburn.
last evening. ''and the indications prom
Use 4 most interesting campaign. The
Democrats have Just nominated Justice
Walter Clark for chief justice. and the
nomination has made very large ele-
ment in the Democratic party all-hred
mad. Clark's nomination is victory for
the machine, and he will have tc de-
pend on the machine to elect him. The
business men in the Democratic party in
North Carolina are sick and tired Of
machine rule, and in my opinion they
will SO express themselves at the ballot
box next November.
Just who the Republicans will nomi-
rate for chief justice l cannot say. but
II we nominate a strong man, and | am
satisfied we will. we will elect him, for
our candidate will surely receive a large
year. Aside from the election of the
judicial ticket, there is great interest
centered in the election of members to
the State Legislature. which must elect
a successor TO Senator Pritchnrd. We
have good fighting chance for the Leg
islature. and II we carry IT. Senator
Pritchard will succeed himself. He has
made splendid record. and the busi-
ness interests OF the State are more
than pleased with him.

Democrats failed to pay their poll tax

Craig, Bob Glenn, ex-district attorney
for the Western District OF North Caro-
lima; Leo Overman. and Cy Watson.

Effects of Coronation Postponement.

witness what was undoubtedly calcu-
lated to have been the greatest spec
tacle Of modern times" said Mr.. Alfred
Maxwell, an Englishman, at the New

appointment was overshadowed by anx-
iety for the recovery Of his majesty.
For number Of days his condition
was very grave. and 1t seemedslike hop
ing against hope to think that he could
recover, but the great body of the people
remained optimistic and joyfully re-
teived the bulletins which indicated that
his case was progressing favorably. The
fact that King Edward has recovered
from 80 serious an operation Is an In
dication that he is q much stronger man
constitutionally than he was supposed
by many to be.
