the present committee retires
from service ne waived his per-
sonal wishes and purposes and
began then and there to plan
work for the month intervening
before September Is.
In his brief. but enthusiastic
talk to the committeeman, Mr..
Dickey said that the Republican
organization in the state is in
fine condition and cited some re-
cent examples Of party work
that assure success in this cam
paign. Said he: II have no
doubt whatever about our sue
cess in this campaign if we 20
into it determined to win. He
called attention To the fact that
at the st. Joseph State Conven-
tion i'm 1904 a resolution was
adopted that the State Commit
tee elect the State Chairman in
stead Of the convention. and
that the party has won victories
since that change in the method
of organization was adopted.
Said he. at a state convention
held a few years ago the dele
gates spent thirty minutes nomi-
mating candi lates for state Oil
ces and nearly two days wrang-
ling over the craftsmanship of
of the state committee. In those
DAYS /. was a matter of who
should be given authority to en-
dorse candidates for federal ap-
pointments. We have gotten
away from the idea of selecting
a man to make endorsements
and to the business OF selecting
man to carry the state.
Reports from committeeman
ard from the officers of the COM
mi!-ce were all optimistic. The
comm ttee spent the afternoon
canvassing matters of party in
terests but not the matter of
senatorial candidates. The COM
m.t,ee took no official cognizance
of that matter.
Governor Hadley looks, well,
feels we'll and seems as eager
for a battle with the enemy as a
war horse is eager for the fray.
He has declined to talk about
the senatorSlip for publication
or for information.
Rush c. Lake. secretary OF the
State Committee, gave the COM
mitteemen a graphic account OF
the party work done this sum-
mer. and he explained the great

TEA, NOT BEER, FOR
GERMAN THROATS
Kaiser Leads Campaign Against
the Brew That Has Made
Fatherland Famous.

The force of the old German proverb,
Bier macht DUNN, which translated
means, beer makes you stupid IS
being brought home to the German
people by Kaiser Wilhelm himself, saws
the Rev. j. F. Dickie, founder and pas
tor emeritus Of the American Church in
Berlin, who is now in New York CITY.
He has Just finished a short lecture tour
IN some of the States on what the Ger
man government does for good citizen
ship. Mr. Dickie made close study of
social and industrial conditions in the
Empire during his stay there.
The illustIious William T., grand
father of the present Kaiser, once SAID
that Germany's greatness was due to
Bibles. Bismarck and beer That the
Kaiser does not agree with his grand
sire in one of the particulars is exem-
pliied by the fact that he is waging a
vigorous campaign in the Fatherland
against the lmmoderate use of the malt
beverage. In one Of his recent speeches
to midshipmen at Kiel he advocated
total abstinence.
At the instance of the Kaiser, says
Mr.. Dickie. large Russian samovars
have been placed in the army, where
the men are allowed to Stake their thirst
with tea, in place of the foaming stein
Of beer, a custom followed for centuries
by fighting men OF the empire. Mr.
Dlckle says that many of the soldiers
have come to like the tea better than
beer. The Kaiser, he says, is also rec
ommendng the use of Gretzer beer,
which is about as Intoxicating as ginger
ale, as a substitute for lager beer.
The Kaiser has also urged students at
the University of Berlin to adopt the
American system of athletics as a
more salGtary form of activity out of
study hours than the consumption of
beer in the cafes of the Inter den
Linden.
Change in the attitude of the German
people toward overdrinklng is seen on
all sides, says Mr.. Dickie, mentioning
as a case in point abolition of the sale
of beer to workmen on the floors Of
factories and workshops, which was a
custom throughout the land when he
first opened the American Church in
Berlin twenty years ago.
Mr.. Dickie is the author of several
books on Germany. one of which has just
been published. He is native of De
troIt. and left that city in 1890 to be-
come pastor of the American Church in
the German capital. During his pastor
ate there he has been entertained by
five successive American Ambassadors.
AS typifving progress IN municipal
government, Mr.. Dickie points out that
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1910-12-18

practically the entire population Of the
little town Of Unterammergau, which
IS two miles from Obarammergau profits
by municipal enterprise. The town
has marble quarry from which homes
are made and shipped to all parts of
the world. The revenue from the sales
Of these homes yields a premium of from
$3.50 to $1,000 to five hundred house
holders of the town. This premium
does not require labor gwen in ex-
change for it. To participate in this
sum the beneficiary must have obtained
communal citizenship. which requires
living seven years in the town
More Roadway in the solution of the
problem of model homes for workmen
has been made in Germany than in any
other country, he thinks. In the village
of Ulm, Mr.. Dickie says, about one
thousand of these houses have been
erected within the lost few years. They
are built by the municipality and sold
to workmen so that in about five years
they become the owners. They are
made of brick, well lighted, with mod
ern ventilation Each house sells for
1000 marks, 600 marks down and the
balance IN easy monthly payments. Four
per cent interos st is charged on the
money and the municipality gives
premium for well kept houses and
gardens.

in this country in 1901 was estimated
at $1,943. 100000, and in 1910 at ST.
36S, 100000. This is an increase of %
per cent. Cattle are the one class of
food animals which has come any
where keeping pace with the growth
in population. Cattle has increased in

tion increased 16 per cent.
Lard Makes Big Jump.
There were about 2.3 animals to
each person in the county in 1901; in
1910 about 1.9. A pound of lard in
1901 was worth IA cents; in 1910,
worth Is cents, an increase of 143 per
cent This may be accounted for in
part at least by the fact that there
has been a decrease of 16 per cent in
the number of hogs in the United
States.

pAared before Judge Frazer yesterday
Dwere accompanied by new sensations.
The climax came when George b.
Anderson, a former select councilman,
tainted as the court asked him If he
had ever received money for his vote.
Before the judge could finish his ques-
ton, Anderson had fallen backward,
striking his head forcibly on the hard
wood floor of the court room Attend
ants and attorneys rushed to his aid
and when he was revived he answered
the judges questions as if there had
been no interruption.
Robert K Cochrane, formerly a
member of councils. admitted receiv-
ing $500 to vote for the bank deposit
ory ordinance and $500 for the ordi-
nance vacating South Seventh street.
Judges Questions Arc Unanswered.
His admissions startled Judge Fra
ger, who wanted to know how it came
that he received so much for voting
for these measures while other coun-
cilmen received much less.
Cochrane was unable to make a sat
isfactory explanation. He insisted that
he had distributed none of the
money. Judge Frazer reminded Coch-
rane that this was a serious matter
and he would have to take the case
under consideration. No suspension
of sentence was granted Cochrane and
he left the court room a disappointed
man.

Washington, March 25.-An increase
of 100000 in the population of the
United States during the past 10 years
and decrease of about 100000 in
the number of available food animals,
is the estimate made by the bureau of
statistics from reports on these two
subjects made respectively by the
census bureau and department of ag-
riculture.
Food Animals Scarce.
Another lesson in the law of supply
and demand deduced by the bureau of
statistics is that food animals have
gone down per cent while the value
has increased % per cent. Mean
time the price of grains necessary for
food for these animals has increased
f-sm Sc to 70 per cent.
