An Aquatic Farewell.

That total abstinence has not always
been one of the cardinal virtues of all
residents of the Pine Tree state is
shown by a story told by Senator Paris
Gibson of Montana, says the New York
Tribune. Gibson is a native of Maine
and was prominently identified with
the politics of the great prohibition
state before he moved into the Far
West.
In Civil War times rum shared the
high price of other commodities, and in
crossroads gatherings in Maine the ex-
cessive price of all sorts of alcoholic
drinks had as much of a place in the
conversation of loafers as the victories
Northern troops were winning in the
South
Senator Gibson's story turns about a
crowd of Maine woodsmen who were
holding down barrels and boxes in a
country store. After the party had
deplored the high price of rum for an
hour or more, one of the men advanced
the suggestion that as soon as the war
was over rum would drop away down.
why, it won't be more than twenty
five cents a gallon!" he exclaimed
with glee.
An old man who had sat in silence,
relieved his mouth of a great supply of
tobacco juice and began whistling 1.-THE
Girl I Left Behind Me-"
What do you mean by that?" the
twenty-five cent rum man asked, rath-
er indignant that anybody should whis-
tie at any of his ideas.
That's what I'll do to water when
rum gets to be two shillings a gallon"
the man replied. --...'. -.

SYRUP A SOURCE OF WEALTH.

The merits of Georgia cane syrup
have been known in the lower part of
the state for hundred years, but it
is only of late that people in other
sections have become acquainted with
the delightful comestible; and as
knowledge of this particular syrup
spreads, so is the sum of human hap
piness increased.
Until within the recent past the mar
ket for Georgia cane syrup was very
limited and il seemed next to inn
possible to extend it much beyond
local lines. There was a reason for
this. The syrup lacked uniformity in
color and consistency. There was no
standard. In a dozen samples taken
from the products of as many planta-
tons there would seldom be found
two alike. This lack of uniformity
was disappointing to those who test
ed the syrup. The purchaser could
never tell precisely what he was go
ing to get. Now all that is changed,
thanks to the "Tillman process" dis
covered by Judge Joseph Tillman, of
Quitman, this state. For a quarter
of a century Judge Tillman has de-
voted himself TO a study of sugar cane
and it's products and the development
of the industry, and the process"
which he has evolved places it within
the power of every farmer to make
a pure clear syrup of a quality and
standard so high that the article must
by reason Of its intrinsic merit be-
come known and used throughout the
country.
The Morning News has recently had
new evidence of the efficiency Of the
"Tnlman process" and the delight
fulness Of Georgia cane syrup in the
receipt from Mr.. j. d. Wilson. of
Brooks county. Of a large sample OF
syrup made by him on his plantation.
A liberal trial OF Mr.. Wilson's syrup
has brought the conviction that he has
attained perfection in the manufac-
ture Of this thoroughly good and whole

To Catch the Yankee Vote.

1t is common enough in the East
to put a German or a Hebrew or an
Italian on the ticket to catch the Ger
man, Hebrew or Italian vote, as the
case may be, says the New York
Tribune The new citizens of the West
where those of foreign birth often out
number the native have not been slow
to adopt the same policy. Secretary
Shaw tells of the worries he had try
ing to select county ticket in a dis
trict where there were many Swedes.
Il met Swede who is a big farmer
in my district" he said "and talked
to him about the candidates. Olaf 1
asked, whom do you think we should
nominate for county judge?' L tank
Ole Oleson ban goot man, he said. And
for district attorney? 'Yon Yonson.
And for county treasurer 'Neils Pc
terson. And for sheriff. I tank
James Smith, But, Olaf I protested,
you have named a Swede for every
other position, why not a Swede for
sheriff" oh, we must do something
to catch the Yankee VOTE"

Hard to Get Out.

An amusing story, says Stray Stories,
is told by the Rev. J. M. Bacon, the
well-known aeronaut, who delivered
an address before the Royal Society
a day or two ago. He was with
party, and made an unexpected de-
scent in the ground of the Claybury
lunatic asylum.
The gate porter knew nothing of
their novel arrival and refused to al
low them to drive away. He didn't
exactly tell them they were lunatics,
but tactfully implied as much.
He pointed out that as he had not
passed them in as visitors they were
not entitled to go out as visitors.
But" said Mr.. Bacon, 1--WE came by
balloon"
All" said the porter, cycling them
with amused compassion. II thought
as much"
And it was some time before he
could be persuaded that a story he
had heard so often before was for
once quite true.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Albany On. W Argus Dem. }
says: zone thing which esteemed Re-
publican contemporaries fail to note is
that Mr.. Bryan is saying it ALL No
body seconds the motion. So far from
unanimous consent, it comes nearer to
unanimous dissent. Men who have
stood by him through thick and thin
are expressing their regret that he
should exhibit such narrow Bourbon
ism, and destroy his chance for fu-
ture usefulness"
The Baltimore American (Rep.) says:
thority that the method of Sparta
should be followed in the destruction
of human weaklings proves that an.
archy is not the only danger of our
modern civilization. To travel all these
centuries simply to get back to the
barbarous methods of ancient pagan
ism is a sort of progress which ad-
vances crab fashion. 1t is simply
reverting to the primitive law of the
right of the strong to destroy the
weak, which doctrine it is hardly nee
essary to go to all the trouble and
expense of founding and supporting
colleges to revive"
The Norfolk Landmark CDem.) says:
THE Republican elephant is suffering
from an unknown quantity of undi-
gested graft. and he may soon be I'M
able to walk if he persists in refus-
ing to let thorough examination be
made with a view to finding out exact
ly how extensive the trouble is and
what may be done to relieve 1t. Vio-
lent assertion that the animal has no
pain does not cure it or prevent it
from growing constantly worse. In
the meanwhile, the country at large
can sympathize with the fellow who
had an elephant on his hands and
wrote touchingly, lin the following
terms. Of the chief disadvantage of
the situa alton:
The elephant ate all night.
The elephant ate all day."

Shrewd Sir Tommy" Upton! He
knows how to turn a nimble siXpence
with the best of them. English peo-
pie, it seems, are fond of Irish bacon
and will pay more for it than they
will for the American sort Likewise
they are partial to Irish horses, be-
lieying. that. those of the island are
stronger and harder than others. To
meet these conditions, according to the
statement, of Secretary Wilson of the
Department of Agriculture, Sir
Thomas maintains a packing house in
Chicago, where he lays down light
American hogs, ships them to Ireland,
and then reships them across the chan
mel and sells them in the English
market as genuine Irish bacon. Sim
ilarly he has bought horses in this
country, shipped them to Ireland and
kept them there a few weeks, then
sent them across the channel to find
an English market as Irish stock. Is
it to be wondered at that Upton is a
millionaire?

responsibility; and they go singing
about the open air. work that gives

Some days ago in Philadelphia a
young society woman, the bride of a
year, died and was buried from a
church. The church funeral of one who
had been so prominent socially drew
to the scene a mob of morbid persons,
chiefly women, who pushed and fought
for positions from which to see the
coffin borne into the church. But that
wasn't the worst; when the coffin was
brought out of the edifice to be re-
turned to the hearse the women
mobbed it and stole nearly all the
flowers with which it had been COW
cred. The police were compelled to re-
move the women by force and to pull
their clubs before the funeral could
proceed.

and the physician has a right to charge
than he does the laborer." While, we
believe, it is the custom for physi-

be charged for services, yet it is sim
ilarly the custom for them to suit the
bin to the condition of the purse of
the patient.

THE NEW WAR SECRETARY.

~ Ne" w An SCI
Gov. William II. Taft. who will be
Secretary of War at the beginning Of
next week is n comparatively young
man, being only about AZ years of age,
but he has had considerable experience
in public affairs, and there is no doubt
that he will fill the position with as
much satisfaction to the country as
Mr.. Root has. AS Governor of the
Philippines he displayed ability and
judgment of very high order. He
and did a great deal to bring order
out of chaos. His administration was
acceptable to the natives and to the
administration. If it had not been for
the fact that It was in the power Of
the President to name a successor that
promises to fill the position as salts
factorily as Judge Taft did it is doubt
full if the latter would have been called
into the cabinet
Secretary Root recommended Judge
Taft as his successor and the Presi-
dent was glad to approve the recon-
mendation. While he did not know as
much about him as Mr.. Root did he
knew enough to be satisfied that he
might search a long time without find
ing a man who would fill the position
as acceptably as Judge Taft in all
probability would.
Mr.. Root got his first impression of
Judge Taft in a case before the United
States Supreme Court. At the time
Judge Taft was solicitor general, and
opposed Mr.. Root in case which in
volved an Interpretation of the navi-
cation laws. 1t seems that one of the
Vanderbilts had purchased a costly
yacht abroad, and on bringing it to this
country the Custom House authorities
at New York imposed a heavy duty on
it as an imported article. An appeal
was taken from the decision of the
collector of customs and Mr.. Root was
the attorney for Mr.. Vanderbilt. The
governments side was represented by
Judge Taft. Mr.. Root won his case,
but so impressed was he with the argu-
ment made by Judge Taft that when
Governor of the Philippines was to be
appointed he recommended him for the
position. 1t is evident from Judge
Taft's career at Manila that no mis-
take was made in appointing him.
Mr.. Root goes back to his law prac-
tice and it is understood will not again
enter politics. The chances are that
Judge Taft will continue in politics
for the remainder of his life. 1t is
worthy of notice that it has been stated
frequently in the newspapers that SEN
ator Hanna has him in mind as a can
didate for the nomination for President
1t is hardly probable, however, that he
would accept the place of Secretary of
War if he thought there was chance
of his being nominated for President.
He isn't seeking the nomination, and
if by chance it should be offered to him
there would be no disloyalty OH his
part to the President if he should ac-
cent it,.
