TIE American Tea Garden.

The Pinehurst gardens embrace at
present about 80 acres of tea plants
in various stages of advancement and
produce from a considerable variety
Of seed over 10000 pounds of dry tea
annually. The original seed for the
Pinehurst tea gardens was procured
through the Offices of the United States
Department Of State and the Chinese
Government from the celebrated Drag.
on's Pool estate near Hangchow, China
whose output commands too high q
local price to admit of its expectation.
Picking tea at Pinehurst Is done by
a carefully trained and well superin-
tended corps OF colored children who
show great aptitude In this direction In
stances have occurred Of fine plucking
by one child in q day Of over so
pounds of greenleaf whereas the aver
age in the Orient hardly exceeds 20 to
80 pounds. Experiments at the Pine
hurst gardens show that tea from all
modern climates could be made as pro-
ductive here as at their source, a
change in climate and the difference in
cultivation and manufacture having
tendency to affect the quality of tea
when prepared for the table. This is
the reason assigned for the difference

$40.000,00 year for tea as against

been calculated that the American peo-
pie drink 400. 600. 900 gallons of tea an

Tablet fern naturally suggested itself
to them and it Is new believed by the
government officials that the tea tab
lets will fill the requirements not only
Of the general government but those
of general merchandise and family use.
An important feature In connection
with compression Of tea into tablet
form which should be considered OF
prime importance is that modern ma
chinery takes the place Of the ancient
manual operations Of the Chinese. OF
course, a great advantage Of the ma
chine in the tea industry is reduction
in the price Of labor, but more i'm
portant item Is the elimination, as far
as possible, of human contact. By tes-
tinsny of travellers in the Orient 1t
is stated that the tea factories Of that

cleaQly, the result Of the herdiAg to

and often very hot workshops. The

ment of Agriculture, are made from the

experimental tea gardens OF the Dc
partment of Agriculture at Summer
VILE, s. C. A few weeks ago DR.. B. T.
Galloway, chief of the Bureau Of Plant
Industry received a large box of sam
pie packages from Summerville.
Each box of compressed tea contains
twenty tablets about the size of cent,
but probably twice as thick. The
various kinds of tea such as Oolong,
American Breakfast, black and green,
eto, are all prepared in tablet form
f1ngiAg from sepia to dark green in
color. The tablets as heretofore stated
are made from tea grown at the Pine
hurst tea gardens Summerville, s. G.
and contain the purest Of leaves
thought to be unsurpassed by any i'm
ported tea. The tablet form is accom-
plished by compression with machin-
cry. The directions furnished for US

 STATE QUESTIONS
Republican Nominee for Governor Opens
 Campaign at Mammoth Springs.

| that if 1t were true as stated by l Governor Davis in his speeches that the state has piled up in the vaults of the state treasurH more than three million dollars, his first official act, if elected gover- nor, would be to ask the legislature to reduce the rate of taxation at least one half, and he would favor a rate that would bring in from the. people only sufficient revenue to pay the expenses of the state government. 1 Judge Warrington declared that the recent election law and the conduct of the elections M | this state are unfair and unjust and complained that the only representation the Republican party receives on any of the county election boards is just such as the Democratic party sees proper to give. He said the Republicans believe that the minority party should have representation on the state and county election boards by law, and not by the grace of the Democratic party. He said that any law that places the control of | the elections in the hands of one party only will always result in fraud and dishonesty in the con- duct of elections, he cared not which party is in power.
 l Referring to the declaration in the Democratic state platform that the present election law is just and fair, Judge Worthington said:
 '.lf this election law is fair aId just and the elections are held in a fair and impartial manner, and the returns when sent in, repre- 1 sent the will of the people, why not consolidate the elections and thereby save thousands of dollars to the people in taxes every year?
 'sIf the Democratic party has the majority which it claims to have, and which is usually re- turned and counted as having been cast for it, can you see any reason, common sense or justice in making you pay this enormous expense of two elections every two years, when one would answer, and they be retained in power just the same? The very | fact that they refuse this just de- mand is one of the strongest arguments against the fairness of this law and it's operation, for If the elections as now held are
 fair, and the returns represent
 the will of the people the result would be the same.''
 I The speaker discoursed at length on the subject of the elec- tion law and said:
 "Fellow Citizens: We are confronted with a condition and not theory in this matter. Shall the people meet at the polls
 on the first Monday in September and say who shall be the officers of this state for the next two years, or shall a corrupt and per-
 jured set of election officers, by , means of false counts and false and fraudulent returns, thwart the will of. the people? Shall the people rule or shall the election boards rule? Shall the people l say at the polls who shall be elected or defeated, or, as Gov t ernor Davis told Sheriff Williams, shall the election board say who
 shall be elected or defeated?
 l "All we ask is fair deal," he continued, "and an honest elec- lion. We willingly concede to you t IS the party in power two of the
 election commissioners for each l county and two of the election

Mammoth Springs. July 2o.- In the opera house at this place today the Republicans opened their state campaign by putting forward their nominee for gov ernor, John I. Worthington, of Carroll county, who, in a speech an hour and a half in length, de- fined his attitude on questions of state interest. His speech is supposed to be the Republican keynote in Arkansas. The nom- inee, who was formerly county judge of Carroll county, having been chosen as such under the Democratic election law, is regis ter of the United States land office at Harrison. He will make an exhaustive tour of the state preceding the state and county election on the first Monday in September.
 Judge Worthington made a bitter attack on the present state election law, being more vehe- ment along this line, perhaps, than Powel Clayton in his recent speech at Eureka Springs. He favored reduction of the tax levy, but endorsed the proposed constitutional amendment to in- crease the school taxes, which is 8 Democratic measure. !
 Judge Warrington was intro duced by Rev. w. P. Hale. He had good sized audience, which was composed largely of Demo- crats. He was given respectful hearing.
 Hon. Harry H. Myres closed the speaking in 30- minute ad- dress, which won frequent ap- plause from the Republicans in the audience.
 In opening, Judg Warrington congratulated the people on the prevalent general and individual prosperity, and declared that this gratifying condition was due to the laws for which "that wise, honest and patriotic statesman, Theodore Roosevelt" advocated. The speaker asserted that the Republican state convention at Little Rock on May 31 last was the "greatest and most represen- tative convention ever held by the Republican party in this. state. , He believed Arkansashehds only the touch of capital and the hand of labor to make of it the great est in the whole galaxy of states. He thought the election of Re- publican as governor would in- duce capital to come. In his judgement, another great and pressing need is more and better railroads or other transportation facilities. He was therefore in favor of encouraging railroads and railroad building by such fair and liberal treatment as will "put a stop to oppressive taxation and would aid them in any reasonable and lawful way.''
 He regarded the good roads question as one of the most vita and important now before the people of Arkansas. If fortunate enough to be elected governor he said, he would ask the legis. lature to pass such laws as vii forever take the convic labor of the. state out of com petition with free labor in coa min es, or railroads, and in fac on all other public works and pu them to building roads and high ways.
 Judge Warrington declared in favor of liberality toward ed ucation, ,s.for normal schools an( for the constitutional amendmen increasing the school taxes.
 Speaking of taxation, he sai,
