the American consul at MOneton the
outlook is not so very encouraging.

of the province states that there are

chased for lumber privileges, but the
large majority are available for set

call the attention OF intending emf

and to the fact that this land is fertile
and cheap. and also 10 the educational
facilities existing there. NeighbOrlng
provinces are working on similar lines
with good results. Many who have al

is being made TO induce former resi-

WHAT THEY SHOULD DO.

An exchange of undOubted Repub-
ltcan prOclivities. thereby having the
right to speak right out in meeting
suggests that the Republicans &C
ahead and elect their members of the
House of Representatives and settle
the speakership question when il
comes up. If a majority decides in
favor Of Uncle Joe" let the place be
his. If another is wanted, let the
present speaker stand aside.
That would be the proper way to
dispose of Cannonism. -" says this
valued exchange. In that way no
mischief would result TO the Repub-
hcan party or to the cause of protec-
ton. But to treat. friendship for
Speaker Cannon as crime and to
hail with delight the defeat of his
supporters and the success of his enc
mics. looks very much like personal
politics and small politics.
I'VE hold no brief for Mr.. Cannon.
He is perfectly able TO look out for
Mr. Cannon. What we are concerned
about is that the success of the party
Of protection should be imperiled by
otherwise level-headed newspapers
which, in exploiting the issue of anti
CannOnism, are contributing mate
rally to the prospect Of the defeat of
the party whose success they desire. ."
If the insurgents are honest when
they say they are Republicans, they
viii follow the advice thus given.

CRAZY MANS STORIES.

An amusing story comes by wire
from Beverly. the summer home of
President Taft. A former patient at
the state farm for the mentally insane
was taken into custody the other day
by a secret service agent anG he at
once declared himself the man re-
spOnsible for the stories sent out from
Beverly about the reorganization Of
the Republican party.
That ought 10 set at rest the idle
stories aflOat regarding the Beverly
end. Now, if the crank responsible
for some Of the Oyster Bay yarns
could be apprehenhed and made 10
confess, it would be possible to get a
line on the political situation from tho
Roosevelt point of view. He'll be
caught in time.

sugar imported from foreign countries
fell from 4,1O6 million pounds in the

From these figures II appears that

SUGAR CONSUMPTION OF The
UNITED STATES.

Sugar consumption OF the United
States in the fiscal year Just ended
was larger than ever before and was
also drawn more largely than ever
before from our own fields and planta-
lions in both continental United
States and In the noncontiguous ter
ritories. The quantity of sugar con-
sumed in the country during the ifs
cal year Just ended was, according to
estimates Of the Bureau of Statistics
OF the Department OF Commerce and
Labor, Z l-2 billion pounds, speaking
In round terms. or an average of 81
pounds per capita. On only two oc-
casions, 1903 and 1907, had the con-
sumption crossed the 7 billion line
and on only four other occasions
1908, 1906. 1906, and 1908, had the
total passed the 6 billion line.
