bell to warn the other skaters to look
out. The bell resembles a cow bell
to a great extent. and when it's pca1s
rang ont Saturday night for the first
time, the skaters almost tainted with
fright. Owing TO the great number
of skaters on the floor each skating
night, a fall by any one, is dangerous
as many are always sure to follow and
it is thought that the use of the bell
will greatly protect the skaters, as
they can hereafter look ahead when
the gong rings.

OF MILK LIKELY
Dairymen Say Expenses Are

1t is one OF two things for Richmond

without milk, or pay more than five
cents a quart for 1t. Dairymen Of
Richmond are now complaining that
the expenses connected with conduct
ing their dairies is too high to per-
nit them to continue selling milk at
five cents quart. They say that the
cost of feed, of labor, cows and all
necessaries connected with supplying
the public with milk has greatly adj
vanced, while the price of milk has re-
manned the same. A number of dai
rymen have been forced out of the
business in this city as we'll as in
smaller towns throught the county.
Several have tried the business seeing
that the field was not fully taken, but
did not remain long at it. About all
who now supply the people of Rich
inond with milk are the old time dairy
men. who have so fitted up their farms
for the purpose that they cannot well
leave the business without a loss.
How Expenses Have Advanced.
Milk sells for five cents in Richmond
now and sold for that ten years ago,
yet the price of brand and middlings
sold for COW food is $40 per ton where
it was formerly 81 and IS. Hay sells
from $12 to Sic: was formerly about

per bushel in contrast with 20 and p

His Use of Private COrrespon-

Washington, ID. c.. Dec. 9.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt issued a statement
from the White House tonight in ans
wer to the correspondence made by
Bellamy Storer. in which President
Roosevelt was charged with having
intervened at the Vatican in behalf
of Arch Bishop Ireland and then hav-
ing been guilty of a grave injustice
in criticizing Mrs. Storer and in re-
moving Bellamy from the diplomatic
service.
The Presidents statement takes the
form of letter addressed to Secre-
tary of State Root, and bearing the
date December 2. 1t consists of cor
respondence that has passed between
the President and the Storers and
his explanation of them as bearing
on the matters of the controversy.
Charges DishonorabIe Conduct.
The President charges the former
ambassador with dishonorable con-
duct in putting down the substance
of private conversation; declares
that it is hard to find the exact word
to criticize Mr.. Storers efforts to
twist the meaning of a letter written
Mrs Storer in reference to sending
her husband as special ambassador
to the wedding of the King of Spain;

said there was no occasion for his

upon this matter and in concluding
his letter to Secretary Root, the Pres
ident says:

HIGH LICENSE LAW
LIKELY TO PASS
Local Saloon Keeper Says He
Don't Think Measure Would
Lessen Drinking.
REASONS ARE SET FORTH
DAYTON AND OTHER OHIO CITIES
ARE CITED BY HIM WHERE
PEOPLE, HE CLAIMS, ARE AS
INTEMPERATE AS BEFORE.

Richmond salooniSts have been ap-
prised of the fact that there likely
will be an effort made at the coming
session of the Indiana Legislature to
enact a law which will provide a
$1,000 retail liquor license fee. 1t is
understood that the liquor dealers of
posed measure, though none of the
local saloon men talked to could give
any information on this subject. One
Richmond saloon proprietor said: I
should not be surprised if such a law
were enacted. The style has been set
in Ohio and in the city of Chicago. 1t
is my humble belief, however, that the
measure will not do what temperance
people have hoped for it. All claims
made by them are to the effect that
as high license will lessen the number
of drinking places, SO therefore, will
it diminish the drinking.
Cites Dayton and Ohio Cities.
In degree, a very small degree,
this will be the case. But look at
Dayton and other Ohio cities. The
small fry have been frozen out be-
cause of high license. Drinking has
been concentrated to a few places and
the proprietors of these places are
doubling their profits. But brewers
and whiskey distillery men say that
as much beer and whiskey is sold in
Ohio now as before the high license
came. Again, the law fails as reve-
nue. maker. A hundred saloons pay
ing moderate license fee will give
the government of state or city as
much revenue as an exOrbitant IL
cense paid by half the number As /
said before, however, [ will not be sur
prised if the legislature passes a high
license law | would continue in bus
mess just the same and | would nat
urally expect to double my business
ard probably would, for there will be
less competition"
