SBURGG.-Farmers in the
vicinity of Ellinsburg will market this
season approximately $1,000,000 worth
of hay representing a tonnage of about
100000 tons. All of the warehouses
are filled and large quantities are stor-
ed on the ranches. The car shortage
is embarrassing the shipment of the
crop, but the railroad company has
promised to relieve the situation before
the end of the month.

GIVEN TO BON APARTE
PROPOSED PRESS CENSORSHIP
REFERRED TO HIM.

At the cabinet meeting today the Presi-
dent took up with Postmaster General Cor
telyou the question of attempting to bar
from the mails the publications containing
the full disgusting particulars" of the Thaw
case in New York. After the cabinet meet
ing Mr.. Cortelyou announced that he had
turned over to Attorney General Bona
cases. together with court decisions in the
same direction. The Attorney General will
make a careful examination of the papers
submitted to him, which include a number
of newspapers that have printed verbatim
accounts of the trial.
Although MIR. Cortelyou did not care to
make further statement as to the case,
it is practically admitted by his depart
ment that it is now too late to do anything
to stop the publication of the testimony
in the Thaw case.
BY the time the Attorney General has had
opportunity to go into the case and ascer-
tain whether the laws have been violated
the trial will be nearing an end. 1t is rec
ognized that whatever damage there is to
public morals has already been done.
1t is recognized Dy Mr.. Cortelyou that 1t
will be Impossible to establish any fixed
regulation in similar cases, as no two cases
are alike and each case must stand on its
in nearly all such cases the damage mas
been done before it is possible to get OIL
cial action.
The President, it is said, was moved to
make his ~rekuest of the Post Office De-
partment by reason of a large number of
letters and kilograms he had received ask
ing him to do something.

Harvesting Of Ice.

Ice. and plenty of it. is being cut on the
ice fields of Maine and along the upper
Hudson river, and, it is said, there is no
danger of a repetition Of the short supply
condition that existed last summer. The
winter throughout the north has been ex-
ceptionally cold, and for two weeks or
more in the country where the ice crop is
harvested zero weather has been continue
GUS The ice on both the Maine and the
Hudson fields is more than foot thick and
is in splendid shape. so letters received
here state, to be put away in the big stor-
age houses. On the Hudson, up to several
days ago, 7Sj, 900 tons Of ice had been har-
vested, and the big ice houses, which line
the banks of the river for many miles be-
low Troy and Albany. were being rapidly
filled. The bulk of this ice will be used to
supply the city of New York and the big
towns along the Hudson. In Maine, along
the Kennebec and Penobscot rivers, large
quantity of fine ice is being stored away to
be brought by the vessel load to this and
other cities on the Atlantic seaboard dur
ing the summer. It is stated that there is
no trouble with the amount of ice In sight
on the ice fields, but labor is short and that
may interfere somewhat with the quick
gathering of the crop. AS ice can in many
years be cut in Maine and New York until
the middle of March. there is no danger
but that a full crop will be harvested, IL
the ice men want to put 1t in the houses.

TWO BOYS AND A DOG.
Visitors From Baltimore Appeal to
the Police.

Two small boys. Gilbert James and Ellis
worth Fendly, came here yesterday morn
ing from their homes in Baltimore, bring
ing Sport, a big white bulldog. the prop
erty of Fendly, with them. All day yester-
day the two boys and the dog tramped the
streets, but as they were without cash
they were unable to buy anything to eat.
Sport managed to pick up an occasional
''hand-out" and the warmth from his body
kept the boys from suffering from the cold
to some extend. During the night the two
boys and their faithful companion stopped
in yestibuies and doorways, but this morn
ing after daybreak they were SO cold ana
hungry that they sought police assistance.

taken to locate the launch India. which

to be no doubt that the boat sprang leak

She was a speedy boat, and during the

To this end Governor Haskell in
sists that taxation he not excessive
and that the affairs OF state be
economically administered so far as
is consistent with public welfare. II
the money is taken from the farmer
and the laborer he can not build his
own home as 1t ought TO be built or

tenn in the southern states and the
creation of selling offices abroad will
tend to bring about closer trade rela-

couragement by both producer and

In considering the weight of the
Embellishments words it is well to bear
in mind that the worlds production
OF cotton in 1906 was 1892. 600 bales.
Of which the United States produced

Egypt / 100000 From these figures
il viii be noted that the United

EnPlishman has only one-fourth in

These facts take a good deal Of the

that cotton can be grown elsewhere
