President Chester s. Morey Of the Great

Mr.. Morey about the Great Westerns

do you know whether the information
that a beet sugar factory was to be es-
tabiished at scottsbiuff had anything TO ed
in influencing the vote of any western SEN
ator on the sugar tariff?''
NO." said Mr.. Morey Il don't see how
that could have been because of the fac

til after the passage Of the tariff bill"
Mr.. Hardwick explained that Mr.. Burkett
first was reported to be lined up with
Senator Br1stow and other republicans who
wanted TO reduce the tariff on sugar and
that when people in his state became in
terested in a beet sugar proposition he
changed hts mind. Mr.. Morey said he knew
nothing about It.
The witness declared that there was no
agreements or understandings between the
Colorado group Of sugar factories WI
the Utah or California groups as to SELL

tariff on sugar. Mr.. Morey said. would XIII
the beet sugar business.
Would a considerable tariff reduction

1T certainly would. We are running on

dynamiting outrage is the work of some
of the lawless characters. The fact
that the note was found on the steps
of the Methodist church and that the
attack was made on the Congregations
al pastors residence, is taken to mean
that there was more than one party i'm
plicated in the matter and that pos
sbly the man who placed the charge
of dynamite was a stranger in the city
as the night was bright and there is
an arc light burning all night before

Both of the ministers are popular in
the city. Watkins has been here for
the past six years and Hacke has been
here for about six months, coming here
from the east. He is very popular with
the young people of the city.
Up to the present time there is no
clue as to the criminals. but deter
mined effort will be made to run them
down, and if they are captured while
sentiment is at its present fever heat,
there will be difficulty in suppressing
trouble of a serious nature.

garet Taber, an aunt of the wife of Mr..
Hacke, had very narrow escape. The
window near which the charge was
placed was blown through the study
and through the room in which Miss
Taber, who is IS years of age, was
sleeping, and then on through the din
ing room and out the other side OF
the house, carrying with it the win
dow sash and all the curtains.
The explosion was heard in all parts
of the city and a great crowd imme-
diatey gathered at the scene of the out
rage and the place was the mecca of all
sightseers during the entire day.
There are number of interesting in
cidents in connection with the explos-
ion, one of them being the fact that on
the steps of the Methodist church two
blocks from the Congregational house
of worship, there was found a note in
tin,ating that the presence of Mr.. Wat
kins, the pastor, was not congenial to
certain residents of the city, and that
if he did not make himself absent there
would be further results disastrous to
his person and property. On account
of the finding of that note it is the
general opinion here that Mr.. Watkins
is the man against whom the attack
was intended to have been made. Mr.
Watkins has been active in the work of
the enforcement league and is an Of
fcer of the state association, and it
is the general opinion here that the

Especially. The wet and dry campaign
is beginning to grow more intense in
all parts of the state and both sides
are preparing for the election which
takes place on the 22nd of July Coun
ty organization is going on and head
quarters being opened by both sides
in many parts of the state. The indi-
cations are now that Texas atmos-
pere will be full of oratory both for
and against the proposed prohibitory
constitutional amendment. While it
is not possible to know what the re-
suit will be, those in touch with con-
ditions on both sides admit that it
will be very close in the actual count.
Recent local option elections have CIV
en- such unexpected results that they
fail to serve as precedent on which
to predicate an opinion. Counties
which were thought. to be dry by
safe majority have gone wet, while
others believed to be wet have gone
dry. That the question will be be
thoroughly discussed from all angles
is now assured and the voters will
not have as an excuse that they did
not have opportunity to hear both sid
eS of the question.

ISLANDERS were alleged to have been con-

he had no recollection of the same, and
judgment for defendants was returned.
The court room was crowded almost
to suffocation by fashionable throng.
Baron De Forest, whose marriage to
the widow of Monier, the chocolate
manufacturer If France, was annulled
subsequently entered English society

they had falsely accused him of having
beaten his wife, kicked her down stairs
and generally behaved with such out
rageous brutality as to make it impos-
sible for her to longer live with him.
Miner, who married the Duchess of

TEAM IS FOUND.

Jamestown, March 27-After search

Sheriff Romer, finally located the miss
ing city team, which disappeared from

night. Jack Williamson, who lives near

that he could locate the lost team for

he gave the information that lead to
the recovery of the team, which was
found on the Little farm, about two
miles west of Eldridge. They were
first noticed by Williamson near the
Ben Horribly place. but by the time the
officers reached there the horses had
gone on" for about four miles further.
1t is still question whether the
horses broke out of the stables them
selves or whether they were lead out
and turned loose by parties either as
a joke or for spite. Williamson, who

Hen. N. G.. Larimore, the well
known farmer and business man OF
Larimore, has written the following
able and convincing letter to the press
as a part of his contribution to the
cause Of anti-reciprocity.
The writer has been anxiously
seeking to discover some enterprise
or individual outside of the manufac-
turer that will be benefited by the
Cana dian reciprocity. President Taft
says it will greatly reduce the cost of
living. Let us analyze to what ex-
tent the cost of living will be reduc-
ed. The estimated per capita con-
sumption of wheat is five bushels
per annum. If reciprocity reduces
the price of wheat twenty cents per
bushel it makes per capita saving
in the cost OF living, of only one dol
lar per annum and at the same time
it would bankrupt the farmer. When
the farmer is not prosperous, the
whole country is demoralized, and
every one suffers. President Taft
gives as another reason for advocat-
ing the treaty that it would stop
speculation. Does he realize that
speculation down" is far more dis
astrous to our people than specula-
ton "up?" The writer has been in
the grain business nearly fifty years;
about half the time as dealer, and
half as farmer. He well remembers
that some years ago when he raised
