Splitter Dampens ArdOr of
Sugar Prosecution.

New York. May 25-OIiver Splitter. the
former superintendent of the sugar trusts
Williamsburg refinery, who was pardoned
by President Taft in order that he might
testify for the government in the trial
Of Charles II. Heike and the other de-
PENDANTS. in the United States Circuit
Court declared to-day that nobody
higher up" in the sugar trust had ever
directed him to have sugar falsely
weighed on the docks and that he had
just fallen into that way Of doing it
when he got the job because he found
that they had been doing il so long before
he got there.
For just a moment it looked, however,
as If the appetites Of the crowd that
filed the court room and the corridors
outside were TO be whetted. That was
when Mr.. LeXow got Splitter to admit
that Mr.. Mackellar and Mr.. Cochrane.
two OF the lawyers in his case, had ad-
vised him TO confess anything that he
knew at the time he went 10 Jail Lexow
asked Splitter what his reply had been.
I said that the only confession could
make would carry me into a cemetery.
and that Mr.. StimSon didn't want that, q"
replied Splitter
You referred TO H. o. Havemeyer and
Mr.. Leroy asked Lexow. and Splitter
said that he did. That was all there was
to this. and later in his talk TO the re-
porters outside the court room Splitter
said that his statement was just a bull. "
as he put il, and that he had never re-
ceived orders from any one to cheat the
government.
I knew Mr.. Havemyer only slightly"
he said TO the reporters. 7 never spoke
to him more than three times in my lie
The frauds began before my time, and
was there twenty-nine years. I don't
know who first suggested them. I just
fell into them"

R EUNION OF THE ENGLISH .
 SPEAKING RACE.

We need not talk about annexation an offensive term; the question is whether there will not some day be q voluntary reunion of the English speaking race upon this continent, for the obvious purposes of free inter course, social and commercial, promo tion of common interest and for com mon defense. Already the social fusion of Canada.w the states is complete. Commercial fusion would now be com plete were it not for the efforts of a body of commercial gentlemen who want a barrier drawn across the conti- nent
 The union of the Canadian provinces resembles, as a wit said in the debate, not that of a bundle of rods, gaining strength by their union, to which a confederationist had complacently com pared it, but that of seven fishing rods tied together by the ends. Such a geo. graphical dispersion seems to preclude identity of interest; though about this we shall learn more when the effects of western annexation are fully felt. There are in Canada no social mater ials for house of lords, nor is there anything like that independent gentry which has furnished the conservative element in the House of Commons. The leading men in Canada are commercial and can not leave their business offices for Ottawa: or if they do, it is on busi- ness of their own.--The Late Goldwin Smith

DOING GOOD WORK.

Under the direction of Marshal Brown, some excellent work is being done on the river road, thanks to the generosity of the council and the auto owners of Tempe who subscribed a fund of $50 to push the work along The full length of the road a coat of caliche has been spread and apprecia- ting the fact that unless this caliche is soaked down with water tke work is practically wasted, the marshal is waiting no longer upon nature to pro- vide the water, but has the town sprinkler wagon at work. The result is proving most satisfactory and in a few days the river crossing will be the best piece of road between here and Phoenix.

4 BOARD OF TRADE MOVE

At a recent meeting of the board of trade, the matter of making up list of available rooms for rent in Tempe during fair time was brought out It is known that there will be a shortage of rooms in Phoenix dur ing that week. In fact, it is under stood that even now the town is pretty well filled up. It was sug- gested at the meeting that it would be well for Tempe to arrange to ac- commodate as much of the overflow as possible. The way the trains are now running, visitors to the fair can spend their nights in Tempe as well as in Phoenix and can arrive at the fair grounds as early in the morning as they may want to and remain there until late in the ev- ening. The little additional that the transportation will represent, will be offset by the excellent accom- modations that can be secured here.
 w. J. Kingsbury is arranging to have the Casa Loma in shape for a big weeks business and the Olive will be able to take care of a good many of the visitors. It is thought however, that these will not be suf- ficient and that Tempe should be prepared to handle a good many more visitors than these two hotels can accommodate. Consequently 1t was suggested at the meeting that every Tempe family who can spare a room or two during fair week, list that room or rooms with F. w. Grif- fen. the secretary of the board. It is believed that if this is done, many visitors to the fair may be given good care during the week in Tempe. They will then leave the valley with a good impression, not only of the valley as a whole but of Tempe in particular In listing these rooms; care should be given to specify the rates and the location of the room. This is not a money making scheme for anyone, but purely a matter of accommodation to the public at large.
