1t Is interesting to note that, not
more than four years ago. the cane
sugar crops of the world amounted to
less than the beet sugar production,
but last season the cane crops were
663,3S tons larger than the beet crop
end this season cane gives promise Of
exceeding beet by 100000 tons.
Last year at this time We estimated
that the stock in principal countries

It turns out, the year closed (Septem.

what's The Use,

Hon. Joel Cohen. Representative

mistakes. and lately he has made
two very bad ones. The people do
not forget such things easily--and
the people are Cohen's stock in trade.
His agreement" with the Anti
Saloon League has proved about as
big a fake as was ever perpetratcd'
But he still has confidence in his
great abilities. During the special
session of the Legislature Joe was
heard to say in confidence to one or
two of his friends that he had the
House about where he wanted it--in
other words, IL he wanted to get
through a resolution or a bill all he
had to do was to make his silver.
tongued orations and little pulling
and the thing was done.
His words were: Il can get any
d thing through"
This stunt might have worked
had not this friend told a Senator
another friend. They both winked
and the Senator said: Let the
House pass the resolution-watch US
In he Senate"
So Joe made his great speech on
the coastwise suspension resolution
1t was entirely free from effective
logic, but Joe was so pleased with II
that he ordered his toupee painted
red.
His last mistake, as usual, was
worse than his first. The House lei
hi mhave his way, as II couldn't dc
much harm, and they were charmed
with that brilliant oratory. They
knew that the Senate was lying in
wait, and the coastwise shipping law
suspension resolve had no more
chance of getting through the Leg
islature than snow balls have of &c
cumut2ting In the crater of Kilauea.
The Honorable Joel still has the
brilliant speech to his credit, and he
is wondering yet what good II does
him to make the statement to his ad.
morers that he can get ANY d
