The Cavour Clarion, a new pa

been a resident of Beadle county,
in discussing the primary elec-
ton proposition says:
1t seems to the Clarion that the
primary election law rejected by
the legislature, is creating more
disturbance than the merits of
the measure call for. In Beadle
county the primary system has
been used for the past nine or
ten years and this county has
never been a bright and shining
example of the publication OF
politics. A well creased ma
chine has been in continuous op-

difference from the caucus sys-

candidates and thus defeating

The Creamery For Ice Cream.

The creamery industry in Maryland
Is in some respects quite different from
that found in the west, inasmuch as
most Of those in this state do not con-
fine themselves to the making Of but
ter, but make butter only as a means
Of utilizing surplus and sell most Of
their products as cream or ice cream
The selling Of the products of cream
cries for e and ice cream rather
than the making Of it into butter has
enabled the farmer to realize better
prices than would be obtained other
wise. Some creameries Of the state
that have made all Of their products
into butter have been run quite sue
cessfully, while many have been a dis
appointment to the farmers and could
not hold their patronage because of the
low prices paid for mike. T. Doane.

Superf1uous Mathematics.

inventor who is fortunate enough to
be able to employ a large star Of en-
gineers and mathematicians to aid him
In the solution of knotty problems.
Some time ago the inventor desired to
find the cubic capacity Of q certain ves-
sci of unsymmetrical proportions, and
asked his mathematicians to solve the
problem. AS the story goes, the
mathemaucians spent weeks of time.
flled their books with their calcula-
tions and finally presented what they
said was q close approximation to the
true result. Thereupon the famous in
ventor placed the vessel on a plat
form scale, filed II to the brirn with
water, obtained its weight when full
and when empty. and In few minutes
be had result as good a. the mathe
maticians-for that particular vessel.

One Of the oddities OF our system Of
reckoning time is exemplifed In the
question as to what time the north
pole keeps. In theory all places on one
meridian of longitude keep the same
time. therefore the north pole. being
the central point OF all meridians, must
necessarily have all times. Should the
role ever become habitable the resi-
dent would be able to have day or
hight at any hour lin theory by elect
Ing to take his time from a meridian

pected event ever occur there would
have to be made some readjustment OF
our present system of reckoning time
to suit the Arctic regions.

Shipmaster Who Has Tried Them

Chinese sailors have not heretofore

ton is authority for the statement that
Cinnamon make the best Of sailors,
states the New York Sun. He had

speaking of his crew he said:
Il left New York In December for

This has been my experience with
crews for years. but l determined to
make a change. had seen ships with
Chinese sailors and heard the captains
tell of their good qualities, and finally
determined to try them.
"At Singapore I fred my New York
crew and replaced IT with Chinese.

low officers has been a glorious one.
rhe continuous grumbling and kick
lng has ceased
The Cinnamon work hard and
never murmur. rhey are a quiet, or
ier-loving crowd. and a better lot OF
sailors never walked the decks.
The time will come when they will
be found on every ship. When they
reach a port they do not rush ashore
and get drunk and then come aboard
aud begin to abuse every one"
The Cinnamon are satisfied to take
short shore leave only. They do not
quarrel. they do not drink to excess.
They are placid and docile and are not
inclined to mutiny.
American captains on foreign v0y-
ages are. from present indications
likely to have much to do with Chi
nese sailors in the future. The mari
time business of the Philippines Is
largely in the hands of Chinese mer-
chants at present and many Of the
sailors in Philippine ports come from
Hong-Kong
There is a large Chinese population
in Hawaii, too, and many sailors
shipped In Hawaii for voyages to
America are Cinnamon.
Though Englishmen and Scotchmen
are excellent sailors 1t was found
some years ago desirable for English
shipowners to secure for tropical or
semi-tropical voyages men less easily
affected by intense heat and East In
dian or Lascar sailors have been found
to fulfill this requirement. In much
the same way It is predicted that Chi
nese sailors will become popular as
seamen for American ships on voyages
south Of the line.
