MONTGOMERY, Jan. 23.-Feeling
runs high in Summers county, but vio-
lence is hardly probable, following a
double murder that marked the end of
a feud of lang standing. The vic
tins were j. y. KnuclSles, contract
ing carpenter. shot in the thigh with a
shot gun charge and in the shoulde..
with rife ball, and his son-in-law
Stephen Evans, whose face was rem
dered unrecognizable by charge of
gun shot. The bodies were found by
Squire NJ. NJ, Warren, who fell over
the bodies. in the dusk.
W. K. Eads, against whom charges
have been preferred on the grounds
that he had maintained feud feelings
against the dead men for some time,
was arrested and held for a prelimi-
nary trial in default OF $4,000 bail.
A previous fight occurred between
Eads and the dead men about ten days
before the fatal shooting.

AS the Telegram understands it
Homer w. Williams never had a
commission as postmaster here.
Democratic newspaper stories to the
contrary Notwithstanding. Through
a slight mixup George L. Won Meyer,
then postmaster general, was re-
ported as having removed Sherman
C. Denham as postmaster at the in
sistent behest OF Congressman w. P.
Hubbard, but that was quickly
straightened out and Mr.. Denham
continued to serve out his term and
has now entered upon another. His
re-ap9ointment is well deserved
from the viewpoint of party and Of
faal service. He never had any
agre ement with Postmaster General
hitchcock or even assurance from
him that he was to be re-appointed.

The Hubbard STYLE.

An Ohio county Democrat signing
himself as deceived one sent the
following letter to the Wheeling Reg
lister:
"sir:-1 am one Of those Demo
Gratis who at Mr.. N. c. Hubbard's re-
quest published in your paper, wrote
TO him Indicating my choice for
United States senator. did not tell
him that my choice was Mr.. Camp
bell. have never heard of that gen.
tleman before. Wili your paper en-
deavor to learn from Mr.. Hub
bard what his purpose was in having
the Democrats of Ohio county indi-
cate to him their choice?"
This instance shows as more i'm
portant ones have the play of the
Democratic politicians and ofIicehold-
ers is to make the people believe that
they arc to rule, when in fact they
pay no attention whatever to what
the people want.

Six terra Gotta railroad stations
have bee nbuilt recently by the Lee
high Valley Railroad Company.
They represent a new departure in
station construction. The basic ma
terial is he.hollow terra Gotta block,
which has passed through a heat of
1000 degrees Fahrenheit in process
of manufacture and is absolutely
fireproof. The surface of the walls
is cement stucco, so that the blocks
are not visible after the building is
completed
The freproof stations now complet-
ed are at Cortland, 1nterlaken, Free
Vile, Milan, East waverly and Hone
oye Falls, all in New York State.
The same material was also used in
the freight station at South Bethle-
hem, Pa.
Tic high price of lumber is largely
responsible for the company's use of
terra Gotta. Now that the original
cost of non-drcproof construction is
SO much greater than 1t used to be,
fireproof building is more econo-
mical in the end.

high opinion of the hustle here that
they voice the belief that it will be

more modern buildings win be

is gratifying to realize that clarks-

of other cities of the state and the

due credit to the water works and

situation during the fire which des-

A meeting of the board was held
early in the evening and everything
possible was done to safeguard ad-
joining properties.
An average pressure of eighty
pounds was maintained by closing
all valves on mains east of Second
street, west OF Chestnut street, north
of Pike and by increased and direct
pumpage. Two additional engines
were put on duty at the pumping sta
ton and two men were ordered to
stay on watch on the hill in order to
promptly notify the department in the
event of a break in the temporary
line leading to the tanks.
The water board office was kept
open all night and report on the
conditions at the pumping station was
received every half hour.

was more than 50 times as great; but
the growth Of beet sugar production
las been very rapid in recent years,
and in 1907 for the first time. ex-
eeeded in quantity that produced
from cane and has SO continued since
that time.
OF the sugar brought from other
countries, nearly all is made from
cane. While about half of the worlds
sugar is made from beets, most of II
is produced in Europe and consumed
in the country of production or in
other parts of that grand division,
while most of the world outside of
Europe obtains It's sugar supply from
cane, grown of course, in the tropical
and subtropical sections. OF the cane
sugar which we consume, most Of
that coming from foreign countries
is drawn from Cuba, the Dutch East
indies, and smaller amounts from the
West Indies, Mexico, Central South
America. All of that coming from
our own islands-Porto Rico, Hawaii.
and the Philippines is cane sugar,
while of the domestic product about
40 per cent is produced from cane
The beet sugar of the United States
is grown chiefly in Colorado, Calf
ornia, and Michigan, and some in
Utah, Idaho, and Wisconsin, while
most of the cane sugar is produced in
Louisiana, with smaller quantities in
Texas, Florida. Georgia, and South
Carolina.
The sugar habit" is evidentl.
a growing one with the people of the
United States and probably with til
world production of sugar, including
all countries for which statistics are
available, has increased so per cent
in the last decade and about doubled
in 10 years. In our own case the
consumption has shown. rapid
growth, the per capita consumption
having been, in 1880, 40 pounds, in
1890, 81 pounds; in 1900 so pounds;
and in 1910, approximately 81 1-2
pounds.
What is the cost of this enormous
quantity of sugar consumed in the
United States? This is more difficult
to answer, The valuation of that
brought from foreign countries anG
our islands is set down at about 17i
million dollars in 1910, and the stated
value of that produced in the United
States, at approximately rs million
dollars; though this comparativel,
high figure when considered by the
price per pound, is due to the fact
that the valuation is based upon the
refined article, while that of the suga,
from abroad is the value Of the unre.
fined article in the country of pro.
'uction. If, however, we accept 4
general average of 5 cents per pound
as the retail price paid by our people
for the Z l-3 billion pounds of sugar
consumed by them in 1910, we should
get total of $S96,OOO,OOO, or nm aver.
age of approximately $l,OOO,OOO a da,
paid for sugar by the people of the
United States.
