A SECOND TERM.

The increased talk of second term for President Roosevelt. after his gem erous renunclation of all political ann bition four years ago. whether it Is in- dulged in mallciously, or with the idea of again drawing him out. cannot help but cause him more or less anguish of mind. His acceptance of the nomina- tlon after what he has sald, his reluet- ant willingness to run, should the con- yention nominate him and then ad- lourn, would Justify the harshest things which have been said of him by his worst enemies and would com pletely destroy the affeetionate conf dence of his ardent friends, President Roosevelt is a man of many impulses, and 1t is conceivable that he would view the nomination of a man not in sympathy with his policies with great imEatience, but even should that occur. there would still be no room for him to again offer himself to the suffrages of the people of the United States as a candidate for president.

suGAR-cANE WOOD PULP.

In view of the very vital interest the paper manufacturers and paper users took in the ate-lamented for estry reserve bill, the proposition to materially change tariff regulations to allow of the free admission of lum- Der from Canada and other points suitable for use in the making of pa per, and the pulp and paper investi- gation hearings of the special com mttee of the house of representatives, news item which tells of the mak- ing of wood pulp from sugar cane is of importance
 Every year sees the spruce tree, which is the wood most used in the making of paper pulp, scarcer A substitute must be found for wood just as wood was a substitute for the preceding process of using rags in the making of paper The idea of using sugar cane Is no new one but for the man who perfects the idea there will be big fortune in store. There have been those who have believed that the fibre of leaves could be used for mak- ing paper pulp after 1t had been sub iected to some chemical process, but that process has never been perfected. It is probable that the appliance of some simple chemical formula of this sort to the sugar cane will make 1t available
 In spite of the assertion of an, up- sto'e man in the Hartford Courant that the late Hon. F. r. Buell. of Heb ron attempted to utilize the cane stalks for paper stock in this state without success some years ago, Unit ed States Consul General Richard Guenther of Frankfort, Germany has reported that sugar planter on the island of Trinidad has discovered a practical method of making paper from the stalks of sugar cane after the juice has been extracted So confident is he said to be lover his success that he has already built paper mill adjoining his sugar fac
