RUBBER FOR PROFIT.

The views of Mr.. Carnegie on the for
tunes to be made out of rubber are
shared by the experts of the trade.
There is no great available supply of
rubber in the world and the uses of
the product are gaining. all the time.
It is not easy to buy a pair of genuine
rubber boots now. so much old rubber
has to be melted up to exc out the fresh
article. Destructive methods of getting
rubber sap have spoiled vast forests in
Africa. and South America, and refor-
estation is one of the pressing needs.
It seems a pity that TantaIus was not
planted to rubber trees instead of
eucalyptus and any future scheme of
forestry in the islands ought to take
into Consideration the commercial value
of trees. A tree that VIII grow fast,
look beautiful and pay is better even on
a public reservation than one that VIII
merely grow fast. like eucalyptus.
Algaroba is preferable to the latter:
rubber has some advantages which en-
title it to preference with the one and
equal consideration with the other.
The rubber tree has been tried in pri-
vate yards throughout the Territory
and is success. It's culture on a. large
scale in the high mountains might be
highly profitable.

BENSON TO Be DRY.
Majority of Voters Oppose
Granting Liquor License.
LIQUOR Dealers are Gwen an Opportunity to

Favor License.
Especial to News and Observer

Benson, N. c., Jan. 9.-The town of
Benson which now has five open saloons
will be a dry town after April list. This
was virtually the decision of the board
of county commissioners Monday.
The people of Benson presented to the
Board of County Commissioners, through
their attorney, petition signed by six
ty-fve of their leading citizens, asking
that they refuse to grant license to any
one to sell liquor there, except for a
period of three months in order that the
parties now in business could dispose of
their stock, and wind up their business.
There was like petition signed by
seventy one of the leading ladies of the
town.
The commissioners passed an order
granting the applicants license to sell
liquor for six months, to be revoked,
however, at the expiration of three
months unless the liquor dealers could
present as strong petition in favor of
liquor as had been presented against it.
This practically means that the license
will be revoked at the April meeting OF
the County Commissioners, as the petit
ton presented represents a large major
ity of the voters of Benson-the town only
having about 10 voters.
