HAS HEARD THE NEWS.

Uncle Sam is sometimes little slow
 in getting hold of information which he
 needs in his business, but he has, it ap-
 pears, finally heard that there has been
 tremendous increase in the sale of
 soda water drinks, so called, which con-
 tain a dash or two of distilled spirits or
 wines of different kinds, and he has de-
 cided that if this business is to go on
 the proprietors must take out regular liquor licenses. An order has been pre-
 pared for distribution among the collec-
 tors of internal revenue, warning them
 that drug stores, candy stores and other establishments that sell soda water and other beverages in which alcoholic
 liquids have been introduced must pay the regular government retail liquor
 dealers license. Several years ago the department made ruling that ''where
 an alcoholic flavoring syrup is used for sprinkling into 8 glass of soda water a QudHtlLy SO SIIlau dS tO mercy give flavor to the water, the special tax of a liquor dealer is not required to be paid for the sale of such beverages" So great has been the trade established un- der this exemption, however, that it is now found necessary to revoke this rul- ing.
 If the tax of $25 year can be collect ed of all the stores where soda water drinks are mixed with whisky. wines and other alcoholic liquors there will be
 perceDtible increase in the govern ment's revenue.

even carry over to the former the eco- homie advantage that has lately rested with the latter.
 Another new source for paper mak- ing that is coming into prominence promises to be Of immense value for tropical countries-that is, the utiliza- tion of bamboo for the purpose. Bam- boo, which is gigantic grass, grows very rapidly. and produces an enor- nous quantity of papermaking fibre upon given area. Tn addition to the abundant supplies growing wild, it is proposed in various countries to culti- Vate the bamboo especially for paper making. When cut down the bamboo, like any other grass, will spring up frob the roots and soon develop anoth- CT crop. In Jamaica various parties are now going into the systematic util- ization of the bamboo for producing wood pulp. and the colonial govern ment promises to encourage the indus try by admitting the requisite machin- cry duty free and renitting taxes. Since the island abounds in mountain streams of clear water, it should invite not only the manufacture of wood pulp from the bamboo, but perhaps the es- tablishment of mills for the entire pro- cess of paper making on the spot. Our own tropical ossessions-Porto Rica, Hawaii and the Philippines-should of- fer excellent opportunities for the de- velopment of this important resource Boston Herald.

IF YOU PLEASE.

For hold that on the seas the eX- pression If you please" etc, sang the gentIemanIy ruler of the queens navy in Pinafore, and his sisters and his cousins and his aunts joined in hearty commendation of his opinion. It is in- teresting to read that the naval officers of this country have been ordered to treat enlisted men with more consider ation than has been exercised in the past. It is pointed out that the charac- ter of men enlisted has changed in the last few years, and instead of taking men with the sea habit and of the class who have had experience before the mast in either the merchant marine or the fishing fleets the navy has drawn largely upon the farms of the interior States whose boys have never seen salt water before presenting themselves to be mustered in. They are of higher degree of intelligence than the old kind, and of more independent training, and if they can be given liking for the sea they will make 8 better class of sailors and reflect real credit on the service. The same rigid discipline and other treatment which in past years has been necessary to restrain the sea rover, usually of foreign birth and training, and often of questionable antecedents, is thought to be no longer necessary.
 Just how much this order means re- mains to be seen. Probably orders will still be orders in the United States navy, but if they can be enforced with less profanity and bullyragging no harm will be done. and Jack may still be every inch a sailor.

NEW SOURCES OF PAPER MATER

The development of various new sources of supply for paper-making material promises to relieve very con- siderabIy the strain upon the forests caused by the<continued cutting off of enormous acreages of spruce, poplar and other trees for the production of wood pulp The demand in this respect has been so far in excess of the visible supply that it has become a serious question not only as to the results of such extensive forest devastation, but where the material for paper making was eventually to come from.
 Fortunately, the tendency appears to be to look for pulp-making material to vegetation of rapid growth, and which is therefore correspondingly easy to re- produce, rather than to trees which represent many years of development. The utilization of waste materials also promises to afford no little relief, and also to present important new means of wealth production. In the latter re- spect great results are looked for from the utilization of sawmill shaw ings in the production of wood pulp. This has been thoroughly accomplished with yellow pine refuse at paper mill established for the purpose at Orange, Tex, where four saw-mills supply ma- terial sufficient for wood-pulp mill of one hundred tons daily capacity. With paper in the neighborhood of seventy dollars ton, this means an enormous source of new wealth in turning to val uable account materials which hitherto have been burned to get them out of the way. This means much not only for the south, where there are many hundreds of such saw-mills, but for all the lumber-p producing parts of the country as well. It is predicted that every saw and blaming mill of any ac- | count will soon have it's pulp making attachment. Many thousands of tons of wood pulp may therefore be expect ed from the utilization of shavings and chips from such mills.
 l Other sources for paper making in the way of waste materials in the south are rice straw and bagasse, the latter the refuse of the sugar cane after it has gone through the mill. With ba- gasse thus utilized in Cuba and in the other islands of the West Indies, the value of the product may turn out to go very far in equalizing the condi- tions between the manufacture of cane
 sugar and beet sugar, and perhaps

OUR RESOURC E&.

There is too much Encouragement in certain quarters over the decision in the Northern Securities case. This country isn't going to the dogs yet, and it wont go there as long as it's resources con- tinue to be what they are. There is nothing serious the matter with a coun- try which can produce such things as that mentioned by the Munchener Neueste Nachrichten, which announces that @ big pressed corn beef deposit has been discovered in the Yellowstone Park. Evidently says the Neueste Nachrichten, enormous droves of cat tie have, during the triocene period, been caught by revolution of the earth and buried by the thrown-down masses. The extensive saline deposits in the district preserved and seasoned the meat; the cold of the ice period kept it for aeons, and under the influence of the immense pressure of the masses of earth and stone it has been transform ed into kind of salt meat, which, as to taste and nutritiousness, is not inferior to corned beef" The Chicago Journal adds some still more wonderful details regarding the discovery of mustard and boiled cabbage in the same neighbor- hood: When the cataclysm occurred the beasts who were canned. so to speak, were grazing on field of mus tard, and the grinding of the glacier pulverized the mustard, favored it with the oil of the animals and impregnated their flesh with it to the queens taste. As for the boiled cabbages and boiled potatoes, they evidently grew uncooked in great abundance in those days, for millions of them are found within half mile of the corned beef mine, boiled and kept hot by hot springs, in which this region ahounds."
 Let us hope on, hope ever. We can get enough to eat and if the Northern securities are finally found to be illegal others can be made. There will be no lack of securities for us to buy.

REG GULATENG CREMATION.

It has been urged against cremation that this method of disposal of the dead might help the concealment of crime, especially that of the poisoner. That there has been some force in that objection cannot be denied. It has been felt in England, and new regula- tions governing cremation there pro- vide that every crematorium must have the authority of the Home Secretary, and that no body shall be burned against the expressed wish of it's orig inal possessor.

Three years ago Missouri was the third apple-growing State in the Union. Now she is the first. There are 20000,- 900 apple trees in the State, five for every man, woman and child, and it is estimated that this years crop will be worth $2O,0OO,oOO, or $S,00oOOO more than the value of the average annual wheat crop of the State.

One of the earliest, steam engines ever built is still the source of power in some rolling mills at Birmingham. It was set up in 1767, and the original wooden beam has lately been replaced by an iron one after 135 years of continuous service. Aside from this iron beam and a cylinder that was put in new in 1902 the egine is the same as at first, even to the connecting rod. For it's special purpose the old engine has been pro- nounced more economical than many modern engines, and 1t is likely to do duty many years more.

The Manchester (New Hampshire) Union prints series of reports from its correspondents on the probable senti- Inent of the various localities when they vote on license next month The points brought out are thus summarized: One is that license, known to be strongest in the cities, bids fair to carry all of them. In some, notably Franklin and Keene, the outlook is for a close vote, but to date the license forces appear to be slightly in the lead. Another is that there will be considerably more no-li- cense than license towns. In some counties the towns are classed as fairly evenly divided, while in other counties, Belknap for instance, the no-license towns greatly predominate. In a num- Der of cases it is noticeable that there is disposition to cut down the esti- mates of probable majorities either way from the figures which were heard in discussions of the subject before the li- cense bill was passed.
