". R. CASTLE BELIEVES CONGRESS WILL
NOT make CHANGE IN SUGAR TARIFF

81 do not believe the outlook for
sugar legislation is necessarily bad for
next year" said w. R. Castle, in reply
to question as to his views of the
matter. 81 do not believe that this
congress will make any changes in the
sugar tariff, and think that in the
next few months the matter will prob
ably be so well talked over that the
people will be educated on the subject.
"The Democrats took the duty off
coffee some years ago, talking of cheap

The price of coffee remained just the
same, and the difference was poeketed

WASHINGTON, March 4. = This
presidential booming business is very
diverting to those members of the
Legislative branch, who have powerful
speaking voices..ii Men of such qualif-
cations Republicans, of course) never
know what moment they may be
snatched away from their work at the
capitol .(if they have any there) or
from their families and friends. The
bugles are calling every little while for
services at tho front. II,
a score of the best Republican speak
ers in the senate and house of repre-
sentatives are on the wing, never sleep
ing two nights in the same bed for a
week at time. They "make" Wash
ington every week or two for little
rest to their cracked voices, and for
conference with their headquarters,
whether it. be the Taft headquarters,
where Representative William B. Nc
Kinley is the presiding genius, or the
Roosevelt headquarters, where Senator
.J6saph NJ, tDix6n, of Montana, is hold
ing forth.
Progressives at Work.
The Progressives have good share
of these Republican orators a.field, but
no more than their share. Senator
CHOSE" Clapp, of Minnesota, is bear
ing much of the heat and burden of
the oratory, and is ready for assign
ment to any point on short notice. He
is entering into the Roosevelt nomina'
ti0n campaign as fervently as he en-
tered. into the La Toilette nomination
campaign, and is doing yeoman service
throughout all the eastern country,
wherever there IS even forlorn hope.
But, on the other side, is Vice-Presi-
dent Sherman, who has virtually given
up his work as presiding officer of the
senate for q while, and is roaming far
and wide and lifting up his voice for
Taft. He is a shrewd politician and
wire puller, az well as orator, and
speaks language that the old fellows
in the business understand. There has
been danger that young Oklahoma
would slip away from the Taft col
umn, and the vice-president is now
ont that way trying by various arts to
dissuade her.
Whether all this speaking amounts
to much is difficult to say, but the cam
paign managers think it does. Both
sides (Rooseveltians and Taftites) are
rushing batteries of eloquence to every
place where the lines are at all weak
all the way from New Hampshire to
Oklahoma. Skilled workers-the sap
pers and miners of the political armies
are going along with them. They are

If the duty is taken off sugar the re-
suit will be the same.
"The Democrats know all this, but
they are leaving no stone unturned to

The sugar proposition is politics. ] do
not think that the outlook is, on the
whole, bad. The issue has arisen early,
and will be so well talked over that it
will be well understood by next year,
and this congress will not complete
any action on the matter at all.
81 am inclined to think that as the
discussion goes on, the people of the
country will come to realize that the
Democratic leaders are working for
something else than the best interests
of the country

The leader then sang two of his solos,

With fully fifteen hundred people

night at the Empire Theater. Led by
the singer Frank Butler, the services of

People of all races and of all ranks
in life crowded the auditorium to listen
to the appeals and to join in the sing
ing. As the Sunday services in most
of the churches had been suspended that
their congregations might attend the
opening of this movement, the floor of
the theater was filled largely with
those who have been mainly respon.
sible for it, and consequently they did
not constitute the general gathering
that it is hoped will be the reward of
the months of preparation.
With the audience standing, the
strains of "My Country, IT'S of Thee, -

George Wallace Melville, rear-admiral,
United States Navy, died here last
night. ~
Rear-Admiral Melville was appointed
to the Navy as assistant engineer in
July 1861, and served through the Civil
War. He was famous as an arctic ex-
pIorer, having sailed with De Long in
the Inflated Jeanette, and was one of
the few survivors of that expedition in
to the North. He designed and built
the two fast cruisers, Columbia and
Minneapolis. He retired from the ser
vice January 10, 1903, and has been liv-
ing in Philadelphia since then. He was
DECORATED with several foreign orders.

MIDDIES COST. UNCLE
SAM A FORTUNE EACH

Washington.-For each MILDLY"
graduated at the U. S. Naval Acad-
emy at Annapolis, Uncle Sam digs
down into his wallet for $1S,1S6.14.
This is the per capita cost of pro-
ducing Ensgns from the naval Off
GERS factory, according to estimates
submitted by Superintendent Glib
bons.
1t is figured that $50 is the aver
age number of graduates each year
from the Academy. Cost of main
tanning the school, on a basis of 500
cadets, in 1911, was $2,727921.
While receiving their education
each mildly" receives $50 per month
in salary for studying his lessons
hard. The cadets also have three
training ships, costing 100000 an
nually to maintain, for their realis-
tic instruction.
After graduating from the Annap-
oils school, the young officers receive
$1,500 a year, and congress is now
considering increasing this to ST.,
500.

As a result of n meeting of Jackson
street property owners last night, the
council will probably be asked to
throw the whole north side of the city
into paving district, all of the prop
erty in which to be assessed pro rata
according to the benefits derived from
the paving of Jackson and Raley and
such other streets as may be ordered

proposition to the council next We'd

The property owners last night also
voted to ask City Engineer Kimbrell
and c. II. Martin, county road build
er, to prepare estimates of the cost of
a street improved with asphaltic oils
in order that this material may be
considered along with bitulithic and

The meeting last night showed that
the Jackson street property owners
are divided into three classes. those
favoring hard surface paving, those
favoring and those opposed to any
improvement work at. all, This latter
class was. however, in the minority,
most of those present admitting the
need of Improvement. 1t is estimated
that about two thirds of the owners

AMUNDSEN'S SUCCESS

London, Eng, March "a tele-
gram bas been sent by King George
of Great Britain to King Haakon of
Norway, congratulating the Morse
ruler on the achievement of his sub
ject, Captain Amundsen in discover
ing the south pole.
All England is disappointed be-
cause Captain Scott did not win the
race for the pole and they now ad-
nit that Captain Amundsen beat him
in the dash.
However, it is still believed here
that Captain Scott also reached the
pole, almost simultaneously with the
Amundsen expedition.
Scientific men here say that Cap
tain Amundsen's telegraphic descrip-
ton of his discovery, which was re-
ceived here, proves beyond doubt that
he made the discovery.
The South Pole is located on a pa
teau which can only be reached after
crossing high mountain range.
Amundsen has wired that he named
the plateau king Haakon's Plateau" d"
