Sugar Factory Notes.

Referring to any article which recent
ly appeared in this paper, stating that
the contractors were certain the sugar
factory would be ready to make sugar
this fall, the Michigan Sugar Beet says:
"The Kilby company, builders of the
Owosso house will have it ready. They
have never yet failed with any house in
Michigan and the contractors for the
Owosso company need have no fears of
the house not being ready
1t is expected that the brick work on
the main building will be completed
within two weeks. The false roof is
being placed on the monitor and the
cement will soon be spread The roof
will be put on the small Office on the
east side of the building in few days
and the Office finished. In the second
story will be located the laboratory for
testing the beets. On the north wall of
the Office fine tablet containing the
names of the contractor, the Kilby Man
ufacturing Co. has been placed.
The beet sheds will have capacity of
| 1000 tons of beets. In addition fumes
will be built on both sides of the sheds
so that beets can be unloaded and car
ried at once into the factory, thus MAX
ing it possible for many more farmers
to unload at the same time.
A large fan has been put in position
this week at the south end of the boiler
! house to drive air into the boiler fur
naces. Beside the fan is placed an en-
gine with speed of 800 revolutions a
minute to drive the fan.

Wall Must Come Down.

At meeting of the council Monday
evening Mayor Arnold pointed out that
the motion to leave the wall of the
Catholic school building addition un-
disturbed in the street was used to
repeal resolution for. its removal.
This it has no power to do, and the
matter was consequently again up for
settlement. By tie vote of 8 to 5,
which the mayor decided, the council
went on record for the removal of the
wall at once. A lawsuit is expected be-
fore Father Slane will consent to tear
down the building.

was amended, however, to permit the
appointment of any general officer as
chief of staff at the discretion of the
president
1t was understood at the time the
law was enacted that Gen. Young,
who is to succeed Gen. Miles as lieu
tenant general, would be appointed
chief of staff upon the retirement of
Gen. Miles. 1t was also understood
that Adj. Gen. Corbin would be a
member of the staff because of his
mastery of all the details of organiza-
ton and equipment
Gen. Young will be retired Jan. ..
1904, Gen. Chaffee succeeding him as
lieutenant general. 1t is understood
that Gen. Chaffee prefers to remain
on field duty. If his wishes are con-
suited, some other general officer,
probably Gen. Corbin, will he made
chief of staff.

THE ETHICS OF POLITICS.
The President Defles- Precedent and
Da.aands Ohio Endorsement.

The President Defles- Precedent and
Da,Aands Ohio IndOrsement.
Boss Hanna, chairman of the Repub-
lican national committee, is quite as
audacious in his political moves as
President Roosevelt and seems to be
perfectly satisfied with the opportunity
that the appeal of the president afford
ed him. Hanna has issued u state
ment which in effect says that the
president having sent him a telegram
indicating a desire to have the indOrSe-
ment of the Ohio Republican conven-
ton of his administration and candi-
dacy he (Hanna) will not oppose such
Endorsement and has telegraphed the
president to this effect. Hitherto no
president has made such an open ap-
peal for votes. but precedent has no
charms for President Roosevelt. He
is evidently his own campaign mana
ger, and in that capacity he employs
the most modern methods. A citizen
of New York, although he happens to
be the president, debating to the lead
ers of another state on their political
action is new move in politics, and
the implied threat that he would con-
slider as enemies those who do not for
ward his ambition is much below the
high plane that the president of the
United States should stand upon. His
anxiety to secure delegates SO long In
advance of the national convention
would indicate that he Is aware of an
opposition that must be formidable
Public opinion may indorse this open
fight that Mr.. Roosevelt is making, but
heretofore it has stamped its disap-
prevail of official interference with the
free will of the voters. All the federal
officers are virtually invited, If not or
dered, to take an active interest in Sc
curing delegates for their chief or be
considered outside the pale of his eS-
TEEN. If Senator Hanna had called
upon the thousands of federal officers
who are under obligations TO him what
a howl would have gone up of his at
tempt to cOerce the Republican party
to do his bidding. No wonder Hanna
is In a satisfied state OF mind. He has
forced the president to throw the
ethics of civil service reform to the
winds. But perhaps President Roose-
welt can successfully do what other
presidents would not have dared to do

Says Bryan would Favor Parker.

J. G. Johnson, of Peabody. Kans.,
chairman of the executive commit
tee of the democratic national COM
mittee. discussed the presidential
situation while in Indianapolis last
week. Especial interest attaches to
his views because of his intimate per-
sOnal relations with William J. Bryan.
He said:
Il think Judge Parker is a very
promising possibility. 1t looks now as
if it will be neseccary to carry New
York and Parker can come as near do
ing that as any man l have heard of.
Judge Parker seems to have a follow
ing among all elements of democrats
He managed David b. Hills candidacy
for governor and owes his judicial
nomination to Hill, and yet he con-
sistently supported the democratic
ticket in the last two national cam
paigns.
Whether Judge Parker is manag-
ing his presidential campaign or
whether others are doing it for him
great wisdom has been exhibited in
calling halt on the criticism of Mr.
Bryan that has been going the rounds
in the east lately. Evidently Judge
Parker and his friends recognize the
fact that, whether they agree with
Mr.. Bryan or not. he is the controll-
ing influence today in the democratic
party, and that any candidate to be
nominated next year for the presi-
dency, no matter what other inf1u-
ences may be behind him, must have
the support of Mr.. Bryan in order to
be successful"

The Army General Stan.

Lieut.. Gen. Miles will retire from ac-

Judge John j. Glenn. of Monmouth,
who stepped down from the bench of
the Illinois circuit court when his
successor. II. J. Grier, qualified, leaves
q record of 20 years service as circuit
judge. He was elected judge of the
Tenth circuit in 1877, and reelected
every six years since until this year,
when, desiring to retire from the
bench, he declined a denomination.
Judge Glenn was born in Ashland
county. Ohio, in 1881. was graduated
from Miami university, and in 1858
was admitted to the bar. He practic-
ed law at Fort Wa, ne. Ind, for three
years and then removed to Aledo. and
subsequently to Monmouth. He was
appointed judge of the appellate court
for the Third district in 1897, but re-
signed after serving year in the old
judicial circuit when Warren was as
sociated with Rock Island county.
Judge Glenn frequently held court in
Rock Island and was one of the most
popular jurists who ever occupied the
bench here.

TORTURINC
DISF|CURING
Skin, Scalp and Blood
HumOurS
Speedily Cured by CutiGura
Soap, Ointment and Pills
When the Best Physicians and
All Else Fail.

The agonizing itching and burning
of the skin, as in eczema the frightful
scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of hair
and crusting of the scalp, as in scaled
head; the facial disfigurements, as in
pimples and ringwOrm the awful suf-
fering of infants, and anxiety of worm
out parents, as in milk crust, letter and
salt rheum,- all demand a remedy of
almost superhuman virtues to success
fully cope with them. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Pills are such
stands proven beyond all doubt. No
statement is made regarding them that
is not justified by the strongest evil
dence. The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford immediate relief, the
certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy have made them the standard
skin cures, blood purifiers and humour
remedies of the civilized world.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the
surface of crusts and scales, and soften
the thickened cuticle. Dry, without
hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura ONT
ment freely, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and, lastly, take the Cuticura Resolvent
Pills, to cool and cleanse the blood.
This complete treatment, costing but
one dollar, affords instant relief, per-
mitS rest and sleep in the severest
forms of eczema and other itching,
burning and scaly humours of the skin,
scalp and blood, and points to speedy,
permanent and economical cure when
all other remedies and the best physi-
clans fail.
