A SLUM OF CANTON.

Where the Many Poor of a Great
Chinese City Live.
The Lady's Realm.-Stand beside
the imperial custom house at Can
ton and let the eye range down the
river toward Hongkong. As far rs
the sight can reach lie boats, boats
and again boats. These are no ordi
nary craft, mere vessels Of trans
port plying hither and thithcr but
the countless homes of myriad Chin
csc, in which millions have been born,
have lived and died. They are the
dwellings of the very poor, who live
in them practically free from rent.
taxes and the other burdens of the
ordinary citizen.
The taukia (Which means boat
dwellers), as the denizens of these
floating houses are called, from sort
of caste apart from the rest Of the
Cantonese. The shore jewellers re
gard them as belonging to a lower
$ cial order and indeed they have
many customs peculiar to themselves
which mark them as a separate com,
How the swarming masses
of them contrive to support existence
is a mystery, but their chief mode of
is in carrying merchan
disc and passengers from place to
place In some cases the daughters
of the family go ashore to work in
factories, as do the girls in other
countries; but the years earnings of
a Chinese factory girl would scarce
suffice TO buy hat for her western
sister. OF course as against this low
rate of pay the standard of living is
poidingly different.
The houses which make up these
vast floating slums are Of all sizes.
Some are but fifteen feet long. From
these cramped dimensions, however,
they range up to a length Of fifty or
sixty feet. A boat large enough to
a family of moderate
size can be obtained for $40, and
since the anchorage is free IT is OBJ
vious that the taukia effect many
savings impossible to the shore

Tit Bits.-The bulk of King Ed
wards wines and spirits is stored in
huge cellars beneath ST. James's' pal
ace. A certain supply is kept at
Windsor castle and Buckingham pal,
ace, but in each case the stock is of
comparatively small dimensions, and
on the occasions of state banquets or
the entertainment of royal guests the
necessary supplies are drawn from
the st. James'S palace stores. At one
time the stock of wine, accumulated
during various reigns, was of enor.

was available, and one of the first
acts of the king on coming to the
throne, was to order a thorough over.

NATIVE WINES ARE
NO LONGER BARRED

OF PROPRIETARY
MEDICINES.
RULING OF VAST IMPORTANCE
TO PRODUCERS OF
SWEET WINES.

Notification of the removal by the
government OF the restrictions against
the use OF native sweet wines in pro-
prietary medicines has been received
by Wisconsin druggists from VIM. r.
Wheeler, assistant secretary of the
department of commerce and labor
The telegram is as follows:
The action of commissioner of III,
ternal revenue is the result of the
fight made against a former ruling,
which went into effect August l, by
the manufacturers and producers
and grape growers.
The reversal of the ruling will
| mean a saving to California alone of
from 100000 to 100000 a year.
The ruling, which was promulgated
last March and went into effect
August list, caused the price of
grapes in the sweet wine district to
drop to Sc a ton, while in past years
the growers received from $40 to SIS
a ton.
A law passed two years ago permits

untaXed spirits. All sweet wines
are fortified by the addition of brandy
at a certain stage to stop fermenta-
ton and preserve the sugar.
The commissioner last March ruled
that the use of these wines, fortified
with untaxed spirits, in medicinal
compounds must stop and the order
went into effect last August This
drove the manufacturing chemists TO
the use of imported sweet wines
which paid duty of 35 cents a gal
lon.
A large portion of the California
sweet wine product was used as a
component for medicinal compounds
The growers of from 10000 to 1900
acres of grapes were affected as the
winemakers could not use their
product except at ruinous prices
Many other states also were deeply
interested.

DEATH AT GILSTRAP.

Mr. Riley, father of Mrs. b. r..
Lawson, passed away Tuesday
evening about six O'Clock at his
homestead near Gilstrap. Bur-
dened with the weight of many
years the old gentleman had
been ailing all winter, and as
last hope to save the beloved
life his children had attempted
to send him east t. his former
home, but this had to be given
up when they saw that his
strength was failing and the in
evitable dissolution must needs
come soon. A son and two Of
his daught RS. Mrs. B. F. La wson
and Mrs. McLain, were at his
bedside when death came, The
body was taken to Dunlap, La.
for interment.

PASSED THE SENATE.

The good folk of Lennon
were overjoyed Tuesday morn
ing in receiving a telegram ann
ouncing the good news that the
bill creating a land Office at
Lennon had successfully pass
ed the senate. The telegram
came from Senator Gamble who
thus far has SO faithfully be-
frien led the northwest corner
of the state, and has done SO
without expectation of political
gain, going entirely on the prln-
oiple that the accommodation
asked had come to be a crying
necessity. Sen. Gamble. in sup
porting the measure with his
best Efforts has proved himself a
genuine representative of the
public, and deserves the heart y
tn anl1s of the people hereabouts
which no doubt he will receive
as freely as he gave.

AS the primary election is ap-
preaching the candidates foi
Office are becoming active and
Hettinger County seems to be
ahead of the other new counties
in this respect. On February
20, 1908 they held the first County
Convention held in the state for
1908 and elected delegates to the
Republican State Convention.
The main fight in Hettinger
County centers now on the
County Auditor. 1t seems as
tho the situation there were the
same as in our county, that it
has taken considerable time and
effort to get the office of Auditor,
the vital part of the County busi'
ness, in running shape in the
new Counties and that a new
man in the pace at the next
election would be just as much
handicapped as the present in
cumbent was to start with, that
for the best interests of the
County the prest mt incumbent
should be reelected and we be-
Iieve he deserves the place.
After having shouldered the
hard work of getting things star
ted right, he should be allowed
to enjoy the fruit of his labors
and see we'll ordered office in
operation. Auditor Beery is a
good man and has made an ex.
cellent Auditor for Hettinger
County and the Herald trusts
that our sister county may be
favored with t'le reelection OF
Mr.. Beerv.

CREAMERY MEETING.

On Saturday, April llth, will
be held a second meeting at
Lennon in the interest of the
Lennon creamery project. Prof.
VIII. atom, the dairy commission
er of South Dakota has agreed
to be present, and will doubtless
grea 5ly add to the interest of
this gathering. 1t is hoped sim
cerely that the rural population
will make it a point to attend
this meeting, as it is solely for
the benefit Of the country that
this work is undertaken.
The First State Bark, which
has taken up the pioneer work
in this SO weighty matter, tells
us, that the requests for cows
are coming In SO strongly, that
they will probably have to ship
in not 5 q head, but nearer to
600 head of dairy >teck-a mos
hopeful sign that the country
side has taken up tie problem of
creating wealth.
Swimming stations are also
being talke of, and there is no
doubt but that several commun-
tiles both north ard south. 10 t.
20 miles away, will thus aim to
to aid the project. Mr.. Dewitt
is authority for the statement,
that inhis mediate neighbor.
hood alone 20D COWS can be de
perded upon.
This matter Cemands the en-
ergetic attention of the farmers.
II is to them the one great ques-
tion of how to obtain steady
income where steady income
is absolutely needed. And let
no one dream that he can do
wei! enough by making and mal-
keting the pr duct of his cows
himself. His product will be a
II cent to ) cent product, while
organized effort will secure him
So cent product. That is big
difference indeed, and now, now
is the tille to 60 at the task Of
securing the benefit of this diff
ference in i business like way.
