A Democratic Delusion.

A statement is going the rounds OF
the state that many Democrats expect
to vote a republican ticket at the pri-
maries for the purpose of nominating
Levi Ankeny for United States sena-
tor, believing that he will be so weak
a candidate that they will be able TO
elect majority of the legislature and
thereby secure the election of a dem
ocratic United States senator. This
is the ground advanced by some DEM
ocrats who are now supporting Sena-
tor Ankeny as an explanation of
their questionable attitude, and will
deceive very few people. The major
ity of the democrats who are sup
porting Senator Ankeny have a much
more substantial reason for doing so
than the fimsy belief that they viii
thereby secure . democratic United

, splendidly its ambition to become a
master of all the trade on the Paci-
fic seas.
The Canadian Pacific, Great North
ern. Northern Pacific, Union Pacific,
Oregon Short Line and Santa Fe
roads have served notice upon ship
fpers that they will go out of the ex-
port trade to China, Japan, Australia
and New Zealand November / and
practically will abandon the trade.
In SO doing the roads are carry
inging out a threat which was made
to the interstate commerce commits
sion at the time that body issued
what is known as rule IS. It is dis
pleasure at this rule and the belief
on the part of the railroads that they
can not comply with it except at Sc
we're peril Of their revenue on domes-
tic business, which caused them to
abandon the oriental trade.
The rule in question requires the
railroads to publish the inland pro-
portions of their import and export
rates, and as subsequently modified
they were ordered by the commission
not to change these rates under a
three days notice for lowering and
a ten days notice for an increase.
This action is taken by the ship
pers to be severe blow not only to
trade relations between the oriental
countries and the United States but
also to immediate revival of prosper
ity. To the trans-continental rail-
roads themselves it means the loss of
between 100000 ana $4,O0O,OOO
revenue annually, but this loss, 1t IS
declared. is infnitessimal to that
which would threaten them If COM
PEELED to comply with the order of
the interstate commerce commission.
1t is said one effect of the abandon
ment of the oriental trade through
the Pacific coast ports will be the
speedy abandonment Of large orien-
tai steamship lines. It Is more than
likely that the japanese will pur-
chase the railroad steamers.

PHENOMENON STILL A CAUSE OF
WONDER TO THE PEOPLE OF
HARRINGTON.

N. M. Streeter is back from a trip
to Harrington and states that the
mysterious darkness which still per-
vades the lake In the vicinity of that
town ID still the cause of much won
ierment to the people there.
The darkness seems to hang over
the swampy part Of the land, and is
believed by some to be due to certain
gases which may be formed as a re-
suit of chemical action of the water,
air and ingredients of the soil.

Paper Making from Sugar Cane.

Paper Making from Sugar Cane.
 The claim Of sugar-planter on the island of Trinidad that he has dis- covered a practical method of making paper from the stalks of sugar cane. after the juice has been extracted. has attracted attention, The claims of the inventor are set forth in a report to this Government by Consul General Richard Guenther of Frankfort, Ger many.
 The increasing scarcity of spruce, which is the wood most used for paper making, is well known. Active search is being made in many parts of the world for materials to take the place of pulpwood. Enormous quantities of ground sugar cane go to waste at the sugar factories. Some of 1t is used for fuel under the boilers. but very large part is left to rot
 From time to time experiments have been made to convert the bagasse, or cane refuse, into paper, but with lin- tied success. commercially. unless tn c Trinidad planters claim Is weii-found- ed. He Is confident that he has made 2 valuable discovery and has built an $S5.o00 paper mill as an adjunct to his sugar refinery. He has turned out pa- per worth s24 ton, according to Con- sul-Generai Guenther. About a ton and a quarter of cane makes a ton of pulp. It Is reported that the process of manufacture Is comparatively inexpen- slve. The planter claims that 1t will pay to grow cane for paper alone. leav- ing the sugar as clearprodt

Japanese Tastes Changing. Hawaiian Gazette.


 There was a time, according to A re- cent consular report, when milk was regarded Tn Japan with the same ab- horrence as cheese is in China, espe- cially the punEsut and strong smelling variety. Recent statistics, however show that time has worked a great change in this respect, and milk and butter are now in great favor in Ja- pan; whereas twenty. five years ago not more than 1 or 2 per cent. of the per- sons visiting a European restaurant or eating a European meal at a friends house. would have thought of touching butter. fully 40 or 50 per cent. now eat t with a relish. They are, however. quite content to do without it.
 As to dairy farms, they have increas- ed notably In recent yeara. Butter however. Is by-product at these places. It Is to milk ths' they look for their profit Milk has a curious history in that country. Thirty or forty years ago 1t was abhorred The average Japanese could not induce him self to drink it. But today many household consumes one or two bottles of milk daily, partly because people have come to like It. and partly be- cause the doctors have recommended 1t as unique and wholesome beverage Milk halls" too, are now quite nu- merous Butter will probably take much longer to come widely into vogue because of it's responsiveness. A pound of fresh butter costs at least one yen (49 Sc. gold) in Tokyo today an ex- tremely high price for Japan.

they are very much in earnest They firmly believe they will pull 1t on: They say they know Roosevelt ts reacy 60 accept as a matter of duty. They also say that from now on the word that the President Is to be nominated and that he will accept in order to save the party from defeat is to be passed from mouth to ear, and that after the delegates assemble at Chicago every one will understand 1t.
 About the Senate chamber, where the Foraker- Dick anti-Taft third-term movement is well known, 1t Is deemed one of the most interesting but not most important developments of these uncomfortable days.
