THEY WERE MARRIED.
Comedy and Tragedy Seen in Wed
ding Of Brazil Couple.
rom Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily,
A tragedy that was not without its
element of comedy was witnessed this
morning when after a series of intri-
cate maneuVers, VIM. Lampkin and
Miss Emma Crooks, both of Brazil,
were united in marriage. Last eve
ming the young people came to this
city and went to the home of a friend
Shortly after their arrival Frank
Crooks, a brother of the young wom-
an, and VIM. McWillams arrived up
on the scene and by causing the ar
rest of Lampkin fastened the pro-
ceedings which terminated in the naI
rage of the young people by Justice
o. l.. Campbell.

warrant against his sisters lover he
stated that he wanted him held until
he could file charge of seduction
against him in Appanoose county. Ac-
cordingly a charge Of "concealing him
self with lewd persons" was made
against Lampkin by Crooks and the
defendant pleaded guilty to the
charge His hearing was set for to-
morrow morning
Arrange Marriage Ceremony.
In the meanwhile the brother of the
young woman and his friebd got busy
and they decided that the hast way out
of the difficulty was to procure a mar
riage license and dismiss the proceed
ings against Lampkin upon bis consent
to be one of the principals in the we'd
ding ceremony. Lampllin acquiesced
and in company with Acting Chief of
Police Gallagher, the quartet repaired
to the Office of the county clerk.
Prospective Groom Nearly "Broke."
Upon arriving at the clerks Office,
however, the groom discovered that he
had but ten cents and it was up to Nc
Williams to furnish the necessary $1.35
The party then took up the line of
march to Justice Campbells Office
where after again calling upon Nc
Williams the Justices fee was rails
ed and the knot tied that caused the
dismissal of the charges against the
groom and ended the labors of the two
young people from Brazil. Lampkin
claims to be a brother of James Lamp
kin of this city. He was rather reti-
cent as to his future plans but is is
probable that he and his young bride
will return to their home in Brazil.

Mr.. Bryan in London.

VIM. Jennings Bryan is now in
London sporting with royalty. He
has laid aside his western slouch hat
and donned the silk tile and a full
dress suit.
He attends dinners and like
functions with the titled and money
lords of the metropolis and seems
to be cultivating the air and man
ners of the upper set.
This does not accord we'll with
the former ideas of the champion
of the poor and oppressed, but we
presume Mr.. Bryan's changed finan-
clal condition accounts for the
change of heart. Would not those

A Comfortable Oppression.

(From speech of Congressman Cousins OF
Iowa.)
During the sixty odd years that the
settlers of Iowa have been culti-
waiting corn and doing fall plowing
and helping each other thresh they
had a pretty good chance to find out
about the general run OF things and
they've heard a mighty sight about
being robbed" and "downtrodded," "
and so forth at different times, and as
nearly as l find out, it's generally
considered now that the oppression of
the present times is about the most
comfortable of any they've ever had.
It's a trifie annoying TO hear so much
about the trusts" said to be orga-
nized to eat us up, but compared with
times when we had to give bushel
OF wheat for two yards OF calico made
by fereign mills and fourteen cents a
pound for fence wire and IS box for
tin plate brought over the sea, there's
general impression that making
things here at hume pays after all,
and that, like enough, all the stories
about trusts may not be true.

BEET SUGAR CAMPAIGN

ne anhua' Oeet sugar ainpa'gn |
has now begun in this state and the
indications are that the output for
1909 will break all records.
Most persons do not realize to
what extent this "infant industry"
has grown in short four years. 1t
is now one of the most important
sources of revenue from agriculture
which the state possesses. From
one factory with meager output
there are now eight and the indica-
.ions are that Colorado will soon
lead all the states in the union in the
amount of beet sugar which is turned
out annually.
The reasons for this are quite ap-
parent. No State possesses soll
which gives such abundant returns
in tonnage of beets and in the sugar
making values of those beets as
the Centennial State. Michigan
and California are good states on
the beet proposition but neither
state Is able to secure such results as
Colorado gets from year to year.
The farmers are gaining crop
knowledge, too, year after year,
and they are thus enabled not only
to produce larger tonnage but
better quality of bees. The out
put last year was somewhat over
I, 900, 600, 900 pounds. This year
will probably show an increase of
10 and possibly 20 per cent.
When one considers that the
farmers of this state get prompt re
turns from this enormous crop and
that it requires less work than
m any other products 1t is apparent
that the growing of sugar beets in
the Centennial State is yet in its In
fancy and that ultimately it will be
by far the largest agricultural prod
uct in Colorado. Colorado Springs
Gazette.
But few people in this part of the
country seem to realize the i'm
mense profits that are derived from
the production of the sugar beet.
AS is claimed in the above article
the beet is about the most import
ant agricultural product of Color
ado, and we see no reason why it
may not become so in Kansas.
If Colorado soil and sun will pro-
duce the beet with the greatest
sacharine test, it would seem that
Kansas should be able to produce
them rich enough to make the crop
very profitable at least. Our judg-
ment is that this sandy soil In this
locality will produce a beet rich in
sugar qualities, probably equal to
those raised Colorado.
We notice that some sections of
the state are experimenting with the
product and claiming good results.
We believe it would be a good plan
for number of our farmers to try
the matter in a small way, next
spring, and if results are favorable
experiments could be carried on
more extensively the next year.
The beet crop is wonderfully pro-
fitable in a locality where they do
we'll and gives employment to a
great many people.
Any locality is exceedingly fortu-
nate to discover that it can success
fully raise sugar beets of the proper
test.
Let us experiment little on
this line.
