CONTENDS BEER
ISINTOXICATING

TT. Collins. Colo. July 1.-THE initi-
ated petition 10 amend the constitution
Of Colorado declaring beer a non-in-
toxicating liquor" and permitting its
manufacture and sale in unbroken
packages was attacked by Gov. George
A. Carlson today in an address at the
annual picnic Of the State Grange. The
governor contended that it created an
issue even more pressingly important
Than intemperance, in that, if adopted.
It would write a -Iie" into the state
constitution. The knowledge and ex-
fperience Of scientists. doctors. judges
and law officers were cited by the gov
ernor to show that beer is in fact an
intoxicating liquor"
The governor added;
. However. II there happens to be anv
person in Colorado who, in spite Of
scientists, doctors and judges: in spite
Of the experience and observations of
all others. still has some doubt as 10 the
intoxicating qualities OF beer. one hour
II liberal testing and experimenting
upon himself would erase the last shad-
Sow OF this doubt for the rest Of his
life"

 According to the Scotland Yard men Von Der Goltz was a prisoner for some time in the Tower of Lon don. awaiting execution but was promised that his life would be spared if he would come to this country and tell this government what he know concerning the alleg- ed conspiracles to commit unneutral acts.
 After giving his testimony, his GUS todlans said. he is to be returned to England and from there to be sent to South Africa. under his promise that he will not attempt to enter the United States. England or Ger many.
 Von Der Goltz also figured in the exposure of German activities which preceded the recall of Captain Boy Ed the German naval attache in this country and Capt. Franz von Papen, military attache He was reported in cable dispatches to have confess ed to the British authorities that Von Papen had organized the plan for blowing up the Welland Canal last fall. von Der Goltz was first arrested in London in November, 1914 on the charge of travelling under false American passport
 Until the outbreak of the Europ- can war von Der Goltz was an offl- cer in Villas army. and in 1913 was reported to have been arrested by Federal officials in Chihuahua City as a spy and sentenced to death. His life was saved by the intervention of German consular authorities.
 He was taken from the ship to the headquarters of the Department of Justice, where he was examined by the experimenting officer,

BIG MELON ALMOST
 READY TO BE CUT so
 IT HAS BEEN REPORTED

BOSTON. April 12.-It is under stood that the Great Western Sugar Company has been ripening a melon that is almost ready for plucking. This company. one Of the largest beet sugar producers in the world. has prospered enormously since the war lifted raw sugar prices to the highest level Of years The common stock. Of which there is S1O,544.OO outstanding. has advanced from 50 last September Co the present mar. ket of 200. There is likewise S13.- 630.000 [ per cent preferred out standing. the authorized amount of each issue being $15.OO0OOO. The American Sugar and Refining Com pany is a substantial minority stock holder.
 Great Western Sugar common has paid common dividends of per cent since January, 1910 The company issues no financial statements, but 1t is said on authority that the 1915 earnings were safely over 90 per cent on the common stock. For the current year. if sugar prices hold. the company may easily earn S7O 8 share. Therefore. so far as earn ings alone count. the company could easily multiply it's present dividend, but because of the uncertainty re- garding the possible tariff reduction the directors have SO far stifled the temptation. Great Western had ap- proximately S1O.O0O.0OO cash on hand at the beginning of the present year md about the same amount in sugar. It is likely that current liabilities were small. so that the excess cur rent assets were probably equal to S2O0 per share on the common stock, setting off plants against the pre- ferred stock Issue.
 Great Western Sugar Is in posi- ton to pay a handsome extra divi dent in cash. or to capitalize par; of It's bulky surplus by the declara- ton of stock dividend. The belief is prevalent that some such action Is nearby probability.
