THE recent statistics concerning the
drink bill of the people of the United
States, which were compiled from the
census reports, has attracted much in
terest, says W. E. Curtis in The Record
Herald. At the same time it is proper
to remark that several good people fail
to perceive the greatest significance of
the figures. In almost every publica-
ton that I have seen they have been
made the text for lamentation, when
they should be the cause of rejoicing, be-
cause they show that the consumption
of liquor is decreasing in the United
States: that the people of this country
are drinking less whisky, brandy and
other harmful liquors. Wherever an in
crease is shown it is in the use of malt
liquors and light wines. The figures show
also that we are the most temperate of
civilized nations; that we consume less
alcoholic liquors in proportion to our
population than any other. The English
are the most Incorporate of all nations,
and consume 33.1 gallons per capita, 14.2
for the United States, 1913 for France
and 800 for Germany.

THE wisest of men sometimes change
their minds. Even that staunch advo-
cate of primary elections, the Madison
Journal, has come to this conclusion:
My present conviction is that the
scheme is practical only in a limited
field, where the Offices to be filled are
single or at most very few in number,
and the candidates we'll known to the
electors. Extended beyond this it will,
in my Judgment, tend to stitfen and
strengthen partisanship and bossism and
to promote secret combines of political
manipulation. Many of us have modi-
fed our views as to this innovation. A
factor in our decision is the conclusion
that if Gov. LaFollette does not hesitate
to make the United States senatorship
vehicle of his personal aims and pref
udices, he would use the nominating
system of the state with the same disre-
gard of consequences. The bill offered
the legislature next winter must be mod
crate and tentative, and be subject to
the closest scrutiny and suspicion

A Kind Word.

Many friendship, long, loyal and
self sacrificing, rested at first on no
thicker a foundation than kind word.
Two men were not likely to be friends.
Perhaps each of them regarded the
other with something of distrust. They
had possibly been set against each 9th
err by the circulation Of gossip or they
had been looked upon as rivals, and
the success Of one was regarded as in
compatible with the success of the 9th
err, but kind word, perhaps a mere re-
port of kind word. has been enough
to be the commencement Of an endur-
ing friendship.

The general government has appro-
priated 100000 in aid of the Worlds
Fair at st. Louis in 1904. To help the
big show all it can, the government has
consented to coin 100000 gold dollars of
special design, and these will be sold by
the managers at double their value, at
two dollars each, thus increasing the re-
sources of the exhibition by just quar-
ter of million dollars. This idea was
also adopted at Chicago, when, as read
ers will remember, Columbian halfdol-
lars were minted and sold at double
their par value, and which are even still
encountered in circulation. To secure
these gold dollars application should be
made 1T once, for the supply is small.

The movement in the republican party
to make sure of the reelection of Sena-
tor Spooner is splendid recognition of
his ability. 1t rarely happens in these
latter days that the people rise up and
in defiance of the party organization
clamor for the reelection of a senator
who makes no effort to advance his own
interests. 1t is one of the healthiest
symptoms to be found in the grand old
party. Of course these Spooner clubs
are reading, or rather writing, themsel-
YES out of the republican party, for they
are repudiating vital plank of the plat
form. M addison Democrat.

Choynski had frequently reached Car

could recover himself Carter chopped
him on the jaw. Choynski went
down but staggered to his feet and be-
gan slugging. Carter, though he had
received a terrible beating, was the
stronger. After missing several times
he finally landed full right swing on
Choynskl's jaw. 1t lifted Choynski
clear off his feet and he lit on top Of

been seriously injured but physician

The facts Of the case as they are in
regard to the small pox scare here
are: Will Greenough called on one
OF the local physicians last Saturday as
bis face was broken out. He was told
to 60 home which he did and DR.. D..
D. Grout, the health officer, was no.
titled and upon investigation he
thought 1T to be the small pox. He
called DR.. G. S. Bidwell for council
and they after diagnosing the case
pronounced it to be small pox as it
was thought to be at first. Sunday
the Greenough family we're moved to
place two miles from the village and
those who we're living in the block
and on the same floor and the floor
above were quarantined and are not
allowed to leave the Dlock as are also
all places where he visited Saturday.
Harry Gabree persisted in going into
the Greenough family's quarters Sum
day morning and it was necessary to
place him in jail to keep him from
spreading the disease. We feel con-
tident that the disease is where t can
be handled providing other cases
should develop without giving it a
chance to become prevalent.

MACHINE FOR STONE CUTTING
Test At Mari & Gordon's Shed Only Partially
Successful Yesterday

The test of the American Diamond
blast Company's method of cutting
granite held yesterday afternoon at
MARI & Gordon.S shed was only par
TALLY successful. This was admitte
by q. S. Ettinger, the manager Of the
company, who said the blame came
from the fact that the sand was Of a
poor quality and that the blast was
not directed by practical mechanic.
He claimed, however. that the test
was successful as it had shown that
the apparatus would cut granite
quickly Practical granite men who
witnessed the test pronounce the ap-
parseus not suitable for doing their
work.
The apparatus consists of a large
tank In which is placed aquantity of
dry, gritty sand. BY a device this is
fed automatically into a pipe filed
with compressed air SO that it is driv.
en- in a solid stream against given
surface. The operation Is very SIM
pie only it would require man with
a set Of iron lungs TO work at it very
long on ACCOUNT of the dust raised by
the saaa as IT grinds away the stone.
At the test yesterday Mr.. Ettingel
tried a number of pieces Of stone or
| which were glued several metal tenn
plets in different designs and letters

so that when the templets were re.
moved the designs stood out in clear
relief. The granite was cut away
much quicker than it could be by
tools but was cut very unevenly, par.
tly because the operator was not 3

Of the dust which did not permit him

Under special conditions some OF

In less than minute a circle three
inches In diameter with large G in
the center was cut out very neatly but
still not sharp enough to satisfy the
ordinary granite man.
Mr.. Ettinger expressed himself to a
TELEGRAM man as. being satisfied
with the test only so far ::as the blast
showed an ability to cut stone. He
said that the failure 10 do better
work could be attributed to the fact
that the operator was not skilled
enough and the sand was very poor in.

While the blast was in operation a
binding cloud Of dust came from it.

any size or depth in stone much
more quickly than it can be done by
hand.
