Adyices received from Governor Car
fer are to the effect that he is at Ar
rowhead Hot Springs, in San Bernar-
dino county, California, and recovering
slowly. This information as to the
Governors exact whereabouts came by
cable. Arrowhead Springs is a hotel
and health resort in the San Bernar-
dino mountain range. and is one OF the
most beautiful mountain spots IN
Southern California. The air is most
pure there, the altitude not too great,
the weather usually warm and pleas
ant. and the healing properties OF the
waters reported marvellous So are the
healing powers of all waters of all
springs at all resorts. The Governor
will find rest and quiet there, however,
and so should recover his health very
fast The hotel at Arrowhead was
built by the late Governor Waterman,
of California, who owned the springs.

of the sharks on the Atlantic boats.
1.-The first gun in our anti-shark
campaign was fired couple of months
ago, when a company operating a line
of steamers to Honolulu refused to
sell transportation on one of it's boats
to a well known shark, who, after
working the gullibles on the Atlantic
liners for more than twenty years,
took to the Pacific boats about two
years ago. This man is said to be
worth half a million dollars.
when this shark applied, about two
months ago, for a cabin on one of
the Honolulu bound steamers, the
agent of the line was summoned to
the desk by the clerk, who recognized
the professional gambler. The shark
was politely informed by the agent
that he had taken his final ride on
any OF the steamers of the company

Republican Party's Opportunity.

The republicans of Colorado have
never had better opportunity to
perpetuate their party in power than
they will have this fall. The demo-
cratic party is split into two irrecon-
cilable factions, with Speer at the
head of one, and Patterson at the
head of the other. The harty has
no definite policies and is waiting
for something to turn up" to decide
what the main issue will be. The
republican party has definite, specific
and popular policies. 1t was never
more harmonious and free from
chickering's and factionalism than it
is now. 1t promised the state an
orderly, economical business admin
istration, and it has fulfilled its
promise. Every condition is favorable
to republican success, and republi-
cans should help maintain these con-
ditions by taking an active part in
selecting candidates to see that only
the very best material is sent to the
next legislature.-Ex.

New Farm Product.

Secretary Wilson of the depart
ment of agriculture is a strong
champion of the removal of tax from
denaturized alcohol. In the recent
hearing before the ways and means
committee he declared that the time
will certainly come when the world
will have to look to agriculture for
the production of it's light, fuel and
motive power. The day must come,
however distant it may yet appear to
be, when the earth's deposits of oil
and coal and the surface supply of
wood will be exhausted and when it
does, to quote the secretary of agri-
culture, through the medium OF
alcohol agriculture can furnish IN
the most convenient form for the use
of man this absolutely necessary
source of supply"
1t is said that the actual cost OF
manufacturing the alcohol ranges
from six to fifteen cents a gallon and
the amount of heat energy in gal
lon, combined with its chespness,
makes alcohol the most desirable
known substitute for coal and oil
products. The part the farmer is to
have in its general introduction for
fuel and light is to be seen from
figures made on the yield OF alcohol
from various farm products.
An acre of ground planted to corn
will yield 140 gallons. One yield
ing 300 bushels of the ordinary Po-
tatoes will give 245 gallons and it is
said there are varieties of potatoes
not suited to the table and not now
grown which would give as high as
500 gallons of alcohol to the acre.
The sweet potato is also yielder Of
high percentage, as is also the
sugar beet. The corn stalks grown
on an acre of ground and at present
wasted ale said to be capable of pro-
ducing ITO gallons of commercial
alcohol. Almost every thing grown
on the farms is available for its
manufacture and it is to be expected
that with the removal of the tax and
the wider introduction Of the alcohol
for light, heat and power, distil-
lery for its manufacture will become
| in time as fixed a feature OF every
farming community as is now the
-four mill. Each community will be
found to a large extent making its
own alcohol for domestic use out of
the waste products of the surround
ing farms the surplus of its fields.
Experience has shown that for
burning in lamp the light is better
and quart of alcohol burns about
twice as long as one OF kerosene.
With cheap supply, alcohol
would become formidable competi-
tor of gasoline in the operation CT
automobiles and small engines, not
only as direct power, but as fuel
for steam propelled ones. In Ger
many there are said to now be g,

Distinctively Different,
In Every Way the Best.

The Weekly GlobeDemocrat, of St.
Louis, covers a field peculiarly and ex
clusively it's own.
1t is issued twice every week. A big
SEMI-WEEKLY paper. Eight to ten
large pages every Tuesday and Friday.
One Dollar a year.
Nothing particularly different you say,
about that-there are other 'Twice-a-
Week papers.
Yes, but the similarity ends there No
other paper is like the Globe Democrat in
any other respect No other paper
equals the Globe-Democrat in any res
pect.
An entirely unique feature of the
Globe-Democrat, feature which is
highly priced by it's. readers, is its sys-
tematic method of preserving and pre-
senting the CONTINUITY OF NEWS.
The two papers each week, Tuesday
and Friday, are carefully prepared with
the view of giving the complete news of
all the world for that week.
They are so combined in the makeup
as to form continued and connected
stories of the various important events,
day, and the final results.
Other weekly and twice-a-week pa
pers, as a rule, print only few tele-
grams of the day of issue.
