And he got in at noon
And addressed the postmaster.
Then up and away,
To bis subjects impartial,
At 2 he addressed
A United States Marshall.
Still on and yet on,
AS untiring as Hector,
He was speaking at 4
To a census director.
In the meantime be shaved,
But had scarce shea tined his razor
When he rushed out to talk
To U. S, appraiser.
Then one more ovation
Upon his great journey,
And a speech from the rear
To U. S. attorney.
They feared he was spent,
But he proved q great slayer,
And the next stop he talked
To Il custom surveyor.
They begged him desist,
But he answered them 'FudgcI
And at 6 was addressing
4 Federal Judge.
Refreshed by some tea
And a couple of crulls,
He addressed an Inspector
OF boilers and hulls.
Then on and still on
The swift special ran,
And he piled out and spoke
To a revenue man.
Then hol for the night,
Without station or steep'e,
and he hit the hay saying,
'Huriah for the people. >

This table shows that during the
two years from July l, 1905. to June
80. 1907, there was an increase in the
total production Of liquor of 300,OSO,-
702 gallons.
1t is natural that the liquor trades
minimum expectation should reckon
on an increase during the two years,
June 80, 1907, to July 1, 1909, at least
equivalent to that of the preceding
two years-that is. 300,0S0,702 gallons.
Did it happen?
Well, hardly so you would notice it.
AS an actual fact during those two
years. instead Of the gain above men
toned which might naturally have
been expected. the table above shows
that there was an actual decrease of
S9,006,631.31 gallons.
And here drop tear for the poor
alcohol mixer.
For in just two years, from June 80,
1907, to June 80. 1909, the total diff
ference between expectation and real
ization was actually the mere baga-
telle of 3S9.0S7 ,333.97 gallons.
OF this enormous shrinkage from eX-
pected figures of increase of liquor
production the whisky total is 81
$50, 607 gallons less than was expect
ed. while the beer production in the
same time shows Il net shrinkage of
not less than 351, 204, 1851 gallons
from expected developments.
Those Seven Billion Drinks That Never
Happened.
These thirty-seven odd million gallons
of whisky mean total of 1874, $50,
800 drinks of firewater, reckoning fifty
to the gallon. u conservative estimate,
and 5,619,267 ,631 drinks of beer, reck-
oning every schooner ut half pint.
The cost of these seven and a half
billion of drinks of booze, reckoned at
the current market value. would have
/ been not less than 1854 ,449, 99T.15.
/ This is the sum the liquor traffic
! two years ago might have expected
/ would pass through their tills in the
/ twenty-foUr months which closed June
/ 30. 1909. but of which, sad O. to re-
/ late. they have never seen penny.
Isn't it about time for the brewers

take vacation till further orders?

FOURTEEN MISSING

Havana, March 3o.--Fourteen MEM
bers of the crew of the Hamburg

was burned here yesterday. are miss

ished. ..5s
The Altenburg caught fire at the
burning piers ofkfse Havana Central
Railway, and the flames spread so
quickly that the officers and crew were
forced to abandon the ship. The miss
ing include Second Officer Rudolph
Horn of Sensburg, East Prussia; Third
Engineer Carl Wittkoff Of Stettin; the
cooks steward, cabin boy, four white
members of the crew, and five st.
Thomas negroes.
The steamer was beached last night
at Reela, on the east side of the har-
Dor. The fire is still burning in the
coal bunkers and cargo and this makes
a search for the bodies impossible.
The steamer and the cargo which
was valued at 100000, are almost a
total loss.

SOUTH IS SIGHTED
ELkINS AND SCOTT CENSURE COM
MITrEE REPRESENTATION.
Not "a Southern Represe ntative Can
BE Found ON Committee
Finance, and West Virginia
Senators Protest.

Washington, March 30.-Much in
terest attaches to the attitude of Sem
ators Scott and Elkins. of West Vir-
ginia, toward the distribution of the
membership of the Senate committee
on finance because largely OF it's pos
sible bearing on the tariff bill In the
Senate.
In the Republican caucus last Mon
day Senator Scott referred to the fact
that none of the Republican Senators
from the South had been given repre-
sentatlon on the committee and in the
open Senate yesterday his colleague.
Mr.. Elkins, followed in similar strain.
Mr.. Elkins and Mr.. Scott both as
sert that their criticisms are due to
the fact that the South has been en-
tirely neglected. With the Southern
Democrats excluded from the commit
tee room during the preparation of
the bill, they declare that immense in
terests of the South. including iron ore
and the manufactures of iron and
steel, cotton and Its products. lumber
and the various other interests of the
entire section south of Mason and Dix
on's line, are without representation
on the committee at this important
stage of the proceedings.
There is much speculation as to
what will be their attitude when the
bMl reaches the Senate but the prevail
ing opinion is that they will make a
strenuous effort to amend 1t in many
particulars.

SUGGESTS COMBINE
HARTMAN WOULD HAVE ALL
RAILROADS UNDER ONE HEAD.

Among the People as He Had
Forecasted to Roosevelt.

Hartman could have his way, hi
would bring all the railroads Of Amer

$500, 600, 900 on improvements of the
weaker roads. both physically and
financially. In this way he says, he
believes he could do the greatest good
for the government, the people gen
orally, to the railroads and finally to
the owners OF railroad stock.
Mr. Hartman who passed two hours
in Denver today on his way East, said
in an informal talk at the chamber OF
commerce.:

cloak over the weaker lines through
out the country and begin immediate

900 and 5000. 200. 900 to improve them.

on these matters This should be
done openly and under some sort of
Government supervision. but we woufc
all be put in prison IL we tried II.

have spent about $350.O00.00 sincI
