Different People Eat.
As 6esh-eaters Australians are
well ahead Of any other people, the
average consumption Of meat be-
ing 81 pounds a week, compared
with the three pounds Of the Unit.
ed States, two pounds and Ave
ounces Of Great Britain and II
pounds Of France. The German,
says the London Telegraph, eatA
a little less meat than his neigh.
Dor, and the Russian consumes
but one pound in seven days, while
the italian is content with less
than half that amount.
All the maritime nations eat
sugar largely. Britain leads the
way in fondness for sweet things.
John Bulbs sweet tooth requires
20 pounds of sugar a year, and
half the ships on the seas fly the
Union Jack. The next great mari
time power is the United States;
Uncle Sam eats 81 pounds of sugar
a year, and on the strength of this
is extending his navy national and
mercantile. Germany follows
third in number of ships, but the
consumption of sugar is only II
pounds per head. France is the
fourth sea power, though it sur
passes Germany with 30 pounds
of sugar per annum. Tea is the
essential drink of progress. In n
single century Australia has made
itself, and the Australian beats
the rest of the world by drinking
y pounds of tea in II months.
Canadians manage six pounds,
which is also the quantity that the
home-bred John Bull requires to
quench his thirst. The American
has a preference for coffee, which,
added to his tea, makes him drink
no less than the Britisher. On the
other hand, Germany's national
depression is distinctly due to her
consumption of a mere two ounces
of tea per head per annum. Rus
STA takes but one pound of tea,
while the Spaniard drinks only
half a pint of tea in a year.
1t is noteworthy that the United
States, now making such gigantic
strides, drinks less than half the
alcoholic liquor imbibed by Ger.
many, France and Britain. On
the other hand, the teetotal races
are sinking more and more into
subjectivity. Drinking nations
are the most humane. Holland
has the most drunkenness and the
fewest murders, while in Spain in.
toxication is most rare and muir.
ders are most numerous.

Henrik Ibsen, the Scandinavian
poet and d%ramatist, is a man who
has always declined to be hurried,
Although he works hard he takes
things leisurely, and sometimes
spends as much as two years oDa
play. He is m~ethodical to a fault
and anything that is out Of place
In his house causes him acute dis
tress. He has a weakness for
small models Of animals, a group
Of which he feels It necessary to
have before him on his desk in or
der to produce his best work.

G. c. Van Duzen who has been
making an inspection in the states
at the direction Of the national gov
ernment makes very unfavorable re.
port Of the operation OF the new ma
turalization law. The arrest Of AL.
Morrow charged with a techrical vi
olation Of this law lends a certain in-
terest to Van Duzen's report. He
says that be found a Ease Of a Chica-
go Judge who admitted 1900 for
eigner to full citizenship in a single
evening, a thing manfestlY impossible
If the oath had been administered to
each applicant separately as the law
seems to intend In Ohio he found
that more than $50, 900 foreigners
had been n%aturalized by probate
judges, who have no authority to adj
minister the oath. The law was
framed clumsily and has been admin.
istered clumsily. In every state
where the inspector has been, abuses
like those cited above have been
found.

1t seems probable now that none OF
the elastic currency schemes which
we're so seriously threatened six
months ago will come up for consider
alton For some reason the sugges-
tion was not favoratly enough cOnsid-
cred to tempt the republicans into
the experiment in the face OF a ma
tional campaign. UndOubtly the
Wall Street stock market, overloaded
as it is with bogus stocks, would ex-
p%erience great relief from 40 elastic
currency issue; but there are two
many conservative people 10 this
country to be enticed into a scheme
OF increasing the credit issues OF the
government for the relief Of gamb-
lers and bunco ~steerers.

THE ELECTIONS.

So many elements enter into cleo.
lions to affect results that 1t Is hard
to draw general conclusions Of any
great value. 10 most Of the states
In which there were general elections
or important municipal elections last
Tuesday there was little interest and
the results signify nothing. In
Maryland where German, by a clever
tectical move, introduced Mr.. Rose
Welt and his social equality Jews To-
to the campaign, the result may be
taken to indicate that states repu.
dlation OF the president and his OBJ
trusiye notions. In New York
where, whatever may have been the
nominal issues, it was clear that the
election Of McClelland must mean the
certain defeat Of at least the danger
Gus risk Of the republican national
ticket next year, the democrats were
overwhelmingly victorious. 1t is
hardly possible to interpret the de-
feat of Mayor Low, who has given
New York a good, clean ,adminlstra-
tion, without taking into account the
unpopularity of Mr.. Roosevelt in his
own state and the peoples distrust
Of him. If the election results 10
these two states be taken as pointers,
they would seem to indicate that the
republicans will have to choose be-
tween turning down Mr.. Roosevelt,
whom they have endorsed in nearly
all the state conventions, and nomi-
mating him in the face of adverse
election returns.
The tremendous republican MAORI
ity in Ohio shows that Senator Han
ma is a more popular man than Mr.,
Roosevelt, puts Tom Johnson out of
account as a democratic presidential
possibility, and in conjunction with
the Maryland and New York returns
seems to signify that neither freak
democrats nor freak republicans need
apply. The results. are full of encour-
agement to the democratic party. A
sane, conservative democrat would
give Mr.. Roosevelt a hard race Mr..
Roosevelt would not be backed with
much enthusiasm by those influences
which in the past have betn the
strength Of Republicanism.

If the investigation Of the Indian
Territory frauds proceeds at the
present rate. the republican admins
tration will escape without a scratch.
The newspapers have said all they
can think Of to say, the people have
grown tired Of 1t, and in a few
months 1t will all be ready to be
dropped. Republicans have worked
out the science Of grating to a nicely,
and 1t cannot be said to reflect upon a
republican administration for the
most outrageous scandals to be re.
vealed and left unpublished.

When q reads the testimony Of
John A. Lee before the jury ln the
Farris trial it is impossible to keep
from regretting that there is such a
thing as turning states evidence.
Farris Is believed to be guilty and
deserving Of all the punlshmenb
that the law provides and more. But
1t Is a pity to convict anybody with
the testimony Of such cattle as Lee
upon promise Of immunity. This
whole business may izzle out and
nobody get behind the bars. The
procedure Of a more primitive stage
of socity in which men are tarred and
feathered and ridden on a rail are in
many respects preferable. This whole
agitation may prove barren Of results
except to the daily newspapers which
have reaped a harvest OF sensation
and scandal. The INTELLIGENCER
does not wish to criticise Mr.. Grow.
Often a large number OF criminals
may be caught by permitting one to
turn states evidence. But IL appears
from Lees testimony that at the very
time he was making an excessively
moral campaign for the lieutenant
governorship, pleading bis member
ship Of one Of the large religious
bodies OF the state and urging his
innocence OF all political arts and
ways, he was then 10 the pay Of the
baking powder trust. Not many men
could read Lees testimony without
feeling that they would rather see
him behind the bars than any other
three men implicated.

According TO the statistics of the
director Of the mint the production
Of gold 10 the United States and its
territories for the past year amounted
to $50, 900, 900 OF this sum Colorado
produced $28, 0O0, 900, California S16,-
600, 900 and Alaska IS, 600, 900. If
California be omitted, Colorado pro.
duced as much gold as all the rest Of
the states and territories. Comparing
the countries e the word il is found
that Australia leads the list with

next with $50, 900, 900, then South
Africa with 500, 0OO, 900, then Russia

presidential elections; the election Of
judges, aud the facility Of the divorce
laws, are all matters that we think
we do well in having avoided. The
negro problem. too, with its lawless
lynchings, which must result either
from defective laws or the Inability OF
the authorities to enforce them, is a
blot upon the national e~scutcheon
with which Canadians would not care

II the Iudian Territory scandals
can be explained away in time, it IS
the opinion Of those who are 10 a
position to Judge that Secretary
Hitchcock will resign and become the
republican nominee for Governor in
Missouri 1t is known that Presi-
dent Roosevelt has long been OF the
opinion that the republicans might
carry Missouri, II they would quit
lighting among themselves over federal
patronage and unite upon some strong
leader to wage an aggressive state
campaign. Mr. Hitchcock is certain
~ a much stronger man than any re.
publican nominee in recent years
He is a man Of great wealth and ex.
tenslve business connections The
daily press in Missouri Is aim ,st
wholly republican. The state eiec.
tion will coincide with the national
election, aud much aid can be rem.
dered by the national committee
The republicans are doubtless de.
celylng themselves as to democratic
disa Election, republican immigration,
and the effect OF possible national
platform declarations. Democrats
may, however, expect stronger re-
sistance than usual.

Tom L. Johnson is a good man,
honest, active and patriotic; but he
is a visionary and sensationalist, and
il his defeat removes a temptation
from the democratic national con
v%ention, it will be worth all it has
cost. The democratic party cannot
afford to nominate an ldealist next
time.

Congress will be asked to build
new stables for President Roosevelt
at the approaching session. Plans Of
a $50, 600 structure has been drawn.
The old stable was built during the
administration OF General Grant and

dignity OF a ''grelt nation" which
has under Mr. Roosevelt "takeu its
place among the powers OF the world"

Mr., Roosevelt's fine diplomatic
triumph heralded some weeks ago
consisted 10 obtaining from China
the concession OF two "open ports "
One Of these ports" it has been
found, is $50 miles inland. The other
is on the water to be sure but with a
quicksand bar in front of it extending
out twenty miles, rendering 1t inac-
cessible even to the smallest ocean
