PROTECTION FOR BEET

Representative Brooks deserves
high praise for his devotion to Col
orado's agricultural interests as
shown by his opposition to a reduc-
ton in the tariff on sugar imported
from the Philippine islands.
He is right in saying that what
ever our obligations to the inhabi-
,ants OF the Philippines may be. the
first duty of the American people is
to foster the industries OF their own
country. So that. IL reduction of the
tariff on Philippine sugar would Grip

Cotton has brought a good price, but the trade has been slow in opening up for some reason and there has been considera ble complaint from merchants.

 Broke Into Jail.
 John Wesley Lowry literally broke into jail yesterday afternoon. He came from Butler county to Selma to pay a visit to his brother-in-law, Sam Harris, the negro who was shot aboard the Nettie Quill at Portland and was brought to this city on December and placed in the Dallas county jail. Yesterday aft ernoon when Lowry called at the Jail and was admitted he noticed that the tailor had two negroes in his office and was searching them. Thinking that he was to be searched also, he stepped back in the hall and slipped his pistol, as he thought unobserved. from his hip pocket into his boot leg. The assistant jailor saw the act and Lowry was called into the office and the weapon pulled forth from it's hiding place. Then he was locked up and charge of carrying concealed weapon lodged against him.

Minor Notes.
RECOGNIZES THE NEGRO.
Jim Mccall Is Held. for Grave Crime
 In Montgomery.

Montgomery, December 21.-(Special.)- Jim Mccall, bad looking negro, with an intelligent but brutal face, is in Jail here on a charge of being the one who at tackled Mrs. s. A. Reed near her home in the suburbs of the city last night. Mrs. Reed has seen him and says he Is the man beyond doubt. She at once swore out a warrant charging assault, and he will be tried later.
 Mccall was seen in his cell at the sta tion house. but would talk little. He said he was well known about here, and had friends, but would moi discuss the accu- sation made against him Mrs. Reed Is quite positive and seems to be sure the man is the right one.
 Mrs. Reed was going along the street about dark last night alone. Without warning she was grabbed from behind and forced to the earth. She screamed, and a man nearby heard the cries and ran to her aid. When the negro, for 1t proved to be such, saw help coming he fled getting out of sight quickly in the darkness. Later Mccall was arrested and when confronted by Mrs. Reed was recognized.
