The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1906-12-07

THE claim to the effect that there is
an annual deficit 10 the postoffice de-
partment amounting to several millions,
and reaching $l4,600,000 for the last fis-
cal year, is refuted by Congressman Eos
ter iu a speech which he delivered at the
last session of congress. Mr.. Foster con-
tends that there is no deficit and the ap-
parant shortage is due to the present
defective method of bookkeeping en-
ployed by the department. In order to
sustain this contention he calls attention
to the fact that the franking privilege
dumps on the postoffice department a
quantity of mail which it costs some
$20,00n,000 to distribute. II this service
were charged to the departments, where
it belongs, the department instead of be-
ing burdened with a deficit would have
a surplus. The apparent deficit is cited
from time to time as an argu nent for
advancing the rates of postage on news
papers, but it is no argument at all,
since it is the ranking privilege and not
the reduced newspaper rate, that is re-
sponsible for the burden.

Bride of Nine Weeks is Given Divorce.

Mrs. Maria J. Young, the nine waeks'
bride of "Old John" A. Young of Brod-
head, Wis, known all over the country
as the Pearl King" of Wisconsin. was
granted an absolute divorce with $4,000
alimony by Judge Stevens in the circuit
court. This is the unhappy ending'of
romance that had as its central charac
ters gallant, ardent, widowed wooer of
q and handsome, fashionable widow
OF 81. Other features were quiet wed
ding at a leading hotel in Milwaukee, a
hilariously happy honeymoon, recep-
ton of the bridal couple at the groom's
home city by brass band and delega-
tion of leading citizens turbulent mar
ital experience of nine weeks aud then
the divorce court.
Young was a popular silk tiled boni-
face of Brodhead. proprietor of the
Young Motel, mayor of the city director
of leading bank and man OF wealth
and social position. When the little
blue and pink gems began to be found
in the clam shells of The Sugar river Old
John became pearl broker. He bought
the gems and took them to Milwaukee,
Chicago, New York end other cities and
sold them to the big dealers. His fame
grew apace and soon he became known
as the Pearl King" OF Wisconsin.
While at the height of his career as a
pearl broker, Old John met one Butter
worth of New Hagen, Conn, pearl ex
pert who was travelling through the west
buying gems Oh his own account ane
also for large New York firm. Abou
three years ago Butterworth died ane
his wife, who had become an expert il
pearls, continued his business.
She met Old John number Of times
in business way, and finally he decided
to lay siege to her heart Finally tn
widow capitulated to the ardent plead
ings of her venerable gray haired love
and agreed to marry him. The marriag
took place in Milwaukee.

THE report Of Commissioner j. D..
Beck Of the Commission of Labor and
Statistics, is most gratifying in showing
the wonderful progress and resources of
the Badger state. The report deals with
the origin and composition Of the soils in
the various localities of the state, and
points out what sections of the state are
best adapted to the industries, dairying,
general farming, sugar beet culture, to-
bacco, etc. It shows that Wisconsin
leads all other states in the value of its
dairy procucts, in the leather industry,
and that it can lead all other states in
the cement industry, in manufacturers,
in the tobacco industry, in the beet
sugar industry, and others, because it
has more raw materials and larger
amount of water power than any other
state ia the union, barring the Niagara
Falls. The report shows that there is
about 100000 horsepower ia total num-
Der of boilers in the state, while there is
nearly twice that amount of horsepower
in the rivers Of the state and less than
one fourth of it is developed.

REPRESENTATIVE BURTON of Ohio is
credited with saying that "Chairman
Tawney of tho appropriations committee
is conservative when he states that 81
per cent of the revenues Of the govern
meDt now go to cover expenses on ac-
count Of wars that have passed and in
anticipation Of wars that may come. The
percentage is really higher" Today
three tifths Of the revenues Of the ma
tional government are paid out for pen
sions, interest on war debts, and for the
military and naval establishments. The
United States is mighty nation, but it
will be great deal better off if it shall
rest content with boasting of its PROV
ess without putting it to too frequent
tests

The declaration of an extra dividend
of ~ per cent on the common stock of
the American Tobacco Co. makes total
of 2215 per cent. to be paid on that Issue
in 1906, as compared with 20 per cent in
1905, the first year of the present com-
pany. In the two years the dividedds
on the common stock have been 4212
per cent, calling for distribution of
Sl7,1O3,O20. The earnings after all in.
terest and charges, and after the pay
ment of per cent. dividends in 1908,
were equivalent to "a per cent on the
common stock outstanding.
