none to dispute.

turnkey, ito eXtinguish all lights at 9

objection to conform to that"
'"That, Dir" answered Burr, Il am
sorry to say is impossible, for l never

In summary of last years result in
the beet-sugar industry in Wisconsin the
general results are set down as good.
Wisconsin is listed by the government
officials s a state in which results justify
considerable extension Of the industry.
It is claimed that the beet crop is be
coming popular with the tobacco grow
ers in southern Wisconsin, and that the
best crops of beets are produced IN the
district where experienced tobacco grow
ers have become interested in the tillage
of the sugar beet. The latest advices
the department has regarding beet sugar
production in the world shows that since
1901 the production of beet sugar in the
United States has increased from 10000
tons to $4,000 tons, which is nearly
equal to the production of all European
countries except Germany, Austria,
France and Russia The total worlds
production of beet sugar is about 7,OOO,-
900 tons, and the four countries iatterly
mentioned produce more than 100000
tons.-Ex. And to think, too, that we
have a congressman so Indifferent to this
vast interest that be is willing to open
the doors for the free admission of for
eighn grown sugar!

No CONGRESSIONAL district in the
country has wider range Of interests
than the First Congressional District Of
Wisconsin has embraced within its Dor
ders. With the lake shipping of the
ports of Racine and Kenosha with ex-
tensive manufacturing of the cities Of
Racine, Kenosha, Beloit and Evansville;
with six of the richest agricultural, coun-
of the western limits; with the largest
sugar beet growing section in the state
and it's extensive acreage devoted to to-
bacco culture, there is indeed an oppor
tunity for our member Of congress to
represent large community OF interests
To be true representative of nearly
100000 people he should be a man thor
oughly familiar with the needs and
wishes of his constituents-one who is in
touch with their success and prosperity
and man who by his vote will not
betray them. Our present congressman,
who is now looking for reelection, has
proven himself incapable OF representing
such a district. Mr.. Cooper's record
shows he is completely out of sympathy
with his people With so large sugar
beet and tobacco growing constituency,
he OF all the congressman of the state
should have been right on the Philippine
tariff bill, when in fact, he was the only
black sheep in the delegation. Having
turned his back upon his former friends
it is now plainly their duty to see that
Mr.. Cooper is not returned to congress.
The effective way to do that is to re-
member the primaries Sept 4th and
vote for a candidate who will pledge
himself not to betray his district. 1t is
time for a change-and it will come if
the voters will only remember the Maine.

GEORGIA MADE MILLION GALLONS WHISKEY
Report of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue VIII
Show Many Interesting Facts. How the Various
States Rank in Liquor and Cigar Making.

Georgia made 96O,6315 gallons
of whiskey last year, ending June
80. The report of the commissioner
of internal revenue will be out in a
few days, and will show this and
many other interesting facts with
respect to Ticker" cigars and tobac-
co.
Georgia is way down, though,
in the production of all things. She
beats South Carolina three to one
in the liquor making business, and
is about 100000 gallons ahead of
North Carolina There are thirty
three registered distilleries in oper-
alton in Georgia, nine in South Car
DINA, and 419 in North Carolina.
North Carolina has more distiller-
les than any other state. But the
greatest number of gallons of liquor
made in any state is made in New
York, being 18,409, 1868 gallons.
Ohio is next, with little over &c.
100000 gallons. Then come, in or
der, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ken
lucky. All of these made over H.
100000 gallons. Next to these the
highest number of gallons was made
in Maryland, nearly 100000 gal
Ions; and staid old, sober Massachu-
setts comes next with over 100000
gallons. Missouri comes next, with
a little less than 100000; Califor-
MIA next, with 3,80O,OOO; Tennessee
with little over 100000; Indiana,
Louisiana, Wisconsin, Virginia and
Minnesota with each a little over
100000, and these. exhaust the
millionaire class of state Ticker"
makers.
Georgia beat South Carolina by
about three to one; Alabama made
about 100000 gallons; while Missis-
sippi made scarcely enough for its
delegation in congress.
Georgia with it's sixty-nine facto-
ries made 9,938,746 cigars; South
Carolina made more, over 13,000,-
600. 1t will surprise some to know
that South Carolina made more CT
CARS than North Carolina. Pennsyl-
vania is first in the manufacture of
cigars, making over 1,800,000,000.

A MODERN UTOPIA
Village in Switzerland Where Natives
Live on $40 Year.


A correspondent has discovered
modern Utopia, where the fortunate
natives are so rich that they some
times do not know what to do with
their wealth. Yet many of them live
sumptuously on about $40 a year.
The happy place is a little village
of Marchesi, at the foot of the Jury
Mountains, in Switzerland.
The villagers number about $50.
A majority of them own their own
houses and farms. They do not pay
any local rates or taxes. In addition
to what their farms produce the vii
layers receive free wood, cheese,
milk and butter, and sometimes meat
and wine, which are practically
forced upon them.
The explanation of this condition
of affairs is that the village commu-
nifty by wise investment and shrewd
business methods has acquired the
ownership of large tracts of titled
land, forests, herds OF cattle and hOgS
and focks of poultry. The produce,
after being carefully weighed and
checked, is apportioned by the elect
ed authorities of the village and con-
veyed to the doors of the villagers,
who thereafter have the disposal of
their respective shares.
Most of the hard work of the
farms and fields is done by paid out
siders, who, although they get fair
terms, do not share in the utopian
conditions of their employers.

BOY HAD FINGERS CROSSED.
So Editor Frost Broke His Own Jaw
When He Yelled at Him.

Col. Max Frost, the blind and Grip
pied editor of the Santa Fe New
Mexican and until the advent of Gov.
Hagerman the republican debater of
New Mexico, fractured his jaw yell
ing at his Office boy.
Answer that telephone" shouted
the colonel at the kid" in voice
that could be heard three blocks
away.
Then his false teeth fell out and
the jaw-bone broke. A physician
called and declared the injury a
compound fracture.
Frost has been a cripple for five
years. He cannot see nor walk. Be-
cause of his physical condition the
doctors say the fracture may prove
serious.
The Office boy says he had his
fingers crossed.

New York is next, Virginia next, and
then comes Florida, which made last

In the making of cigarettes New
York is first, Virginia second, Louis
