Shall We Buy St. Thomas

Secretary knox's visit to st. Thomas
has revived discussion Of the purchase
Of that island This was nearly consum-
mated in 1902, but the Danish Rigsdag
by majority of one finally disapproved
The same kind of patriotism which was
pressed into service in Canada to defeat
reciprocity persuaded the Danish legis-
lators to vote for the retention of a piece
o. territory that has been a source OF
almost unremitting expense. St Thorn
as is one of several islands in the West
Indies that are important chiefly because
they have good harbor. And their
particular value is almost entirely re-
lated to the use to which that harbor
may be put, Denmark is not particular
ly interested in having a eoaling station
within easy reach of the Panama canaY.
or convenient base of operations
against Porto Rico and the southern
coast of the United States. And while
we have no more immediat use for st.
Thomas than Denmark has, we are vast.
ly more interested the moment any other
country shows a desire to acquire it.
This accounts for our interest in the
Durand circular of six weeks ago, in
which the former British minister to the
United States called attention to a Fu-
ropean syndicate which proposed to
spend six million dollars in dredging and
otherwise improving st. Thomas harbor.
He evidently wanted us to believe that
German capital was back of the pro-
posal 1t isn't likely that the proposal
was ever serious. or that Germany had
anything to do with it Denmark has
talked much about improving st. Thorn
as for a score of years but even the few
investments which were made as the re-
suit of the patriotic agitation of 1902
have brought no returns Even the
Danish steamship line that now touches
at the island had to be heavily sub
sidized. The few profitable industries
on the island are largely in the hands
OF Englishmen. In fact, the casual WIS.,
itor at st. Thomas does not realize that
he is on Danish soil unless he happens
to see the Danish flag flying in the public
square. Many steamers touch there for
eoaling purposes, but most OF them fly
the British flag.
We do not need to be anxious about
St Thomas. If Denmark has had
change Of heart about selling this island.

to consider what it might be worth cur

ON RAISING TURKEYS.
Practical Points Boiled Down From Ex-
perience.

As rule, young turkeys are very
tender and difficult to raise. In the first
place, it is necessary to have eggs frors
good healthy stock The hen turkeys
begin laying very early in the season.
They usually lay their eggs on the
ground, and for this reason it is best
to remove the eggs from the nest soon
after they are laid, and replace them
with hen eggs says Anna Wade Galligh-
er, writing in Farm and Fireside. BE
careful not to let a turkey hen see
YOU near her nest for turkey resents
intrusion. Wrap the eggs In paper, anil
place them in boxes, one layer deep,
They should he turned carefully every
day until placed for Matching, Turkey
eggs viii keep in good condition for
three weeks when cared for in this man
ner
We have never tried Matching turkeys
in an incubator but have known OF 9TH
ers who have had good success. We
do not think they would thrive in an
ordinary hro0der. Some people in this
country hatch their turkey eggs under
chicken hens. The one advantage IN this
il that BY 50 doing the turkey hens
can be induced to lay several clutches Of
eggs in a season. When setting tile
eggs we try to guard against lice A
lousy poult soon becomes the prey OF
disease. Provide suitable shelter for
the poults; don't depend upon "eoops.'
Small coops or barrels have no place In
the turkey business.
Almost any house or large shed can
be turned into TURKEY house with j
small amount Of labor and expense. III
possible have the south side enclosed
with fine mesh poultry netting. An oil
cleth or canvas curtain should be at
tached. TO be used IN bad weather. Ii
the entire south side cannot be so ar
ranged, then let the windows and doors
he ut the south side The hens and
poults are put IN the house soon after
the latter are Matched. When the poults
are strong enough to follow the hens,
they are turned out into a yard sur.
rounding the house A few days later
they are given free range. They always
come back at night.
During the first week we feed dry
bread, crushed fine, with some finely
chopped onion tops added A little
clean, coarse sand is also added. Steamed
rice is fed once in a while for a change.
We are careful not to Oyerfeed Whom
the poults get old enough to catch bugs.
a little rolled or steel cut oats are fed
once or twice a day. They are always
hungriest in the morning. Feed regular
ly when kept indoors.

Adverse Report by Republican
Committee Members
REVISION is OPPOSED
Democratic Measure Described as Ill
Advised and Unfortunate and
as Likely to Bring
Disaster.

Washington, April 6.An adverse re-.
port on the House steel revision bill,
signed by all OF the Republican mem
Eers of the finance committee, except
Senator La Toilette, was submitted to
the Senate yesterday.
The bill Is denounced as ill.adyised
and unfortunate.
It is declared that the enactment Of
tile bill would reduce protection below
the margin Of safety and tend to de-
stroy one of the most important in
dustries of this country.
The committee contends that hear
ings of 245 different industrial concerns
of rs states showed a widespread OPP
position to the revision of the present
rates and that representatives of 225
manufactures of machine tools testi-
fled that putting machine tools on the
free list would compel the closing Of
their factories.
Among numerous other reasons given
by the committee for its opposition to
the Democratic bill is cited the absence

COUNCIL GIVES YOU CHOICE OLA
BOND ISSUE OR HIGHER TAX RATE
VOTE TO SELL $4,000 OF BONDS
OR PAY TAX RATE OF $500
ON THE THOUSAND.

The city council needs more mon
ey to pay its own Indebtedness ana
that of the city school board than can
be raised by the usual tax rate OF
$12 on the thousand, and has given
the voters of Dawson the option OF
authorizing a new bond issue Of $lz,-
900 or paying a tax rate OF $50 On
the thousand.
At a meeting of the council FIJI
day night the financial status was
discussed, and as a solution OF the
problem a resolution was adopted
that the question of issuing $4,000
worth of bonds bearing five per cent
interest be submitted to the qualitled
voters of the city at an election to
be held on September goth.
Following this action a motion
was adopted that tax of 10 mills
be levied upon the property in the
city, with a proviso that if the bond
issue is authorized by the voters on
ly II mills will be collected.
Official notice calling the bond
election is published in today's News,
and the books for the registration
of voters have been opened in the
office of City Clerk Bell. 1t will be
necessary for all who have not regis
tered this year to do so if they vote
on September goth.
1t will require two-thirds of the
voters who are registered to author
ize the bond issue.
