Gou. Len Small's Trial on Charges
 Of Conspiracy and Embezzlement
 To Start in Waukegan Tomorrow
Case Expected Prove One of Most Bitterly Fought in Court Annals of Nation; Battery of Attorneys Is
 Massed by Each Side on Eve of Legal Battle

WAUKEGAN, H., Mar. 4.-For the first time in the history of illinois its chief executive will go on trial during his term of office in the court house here next Monday, March 6.
 Not since the impeachment and re- moval of William Sulzer from the gov ernorship of New York in 1918 has the governor of any American state facel charges so serious or which have attracted the widespread atten tion as those pending against Len Small, twenty-eighth governor Of Hi nois, and his fellow defendants, Lieut. Gov. Fred E. Sterling and Vernon Curtis, banker of Grant Park. III.
 In Illinois 104 years of statehood only two other governors have ever been indicted while in office, and in each of the previous cases the court dismissed the charges without trial because of their trivial nature.
 Granted Separate Trial
 Although Governor Small and Messrs. Sterling and Curtis are charged jointly with conspiracy to defraud the state through embezzle- ment of funds from the state treasury

SENATOR'S SPLENDID RECORD OF
SERVICE TO STATE ANo
NATION ENDORSED
ORGANIZING 'OvER STATE
FOR PRIMARIES IN NAY

Thousands ppf. Republicans in al
parts OF Indiana have expressed their
approval or the record OF United
States Senator Harry S. New and have
pledged themselves TO support the
Senator for renornination at the May
primaries, according to word received
here from over the state.
Included among those who have
pledged their support to Senator New
and who have endorsed his past
record as a member of the United
States senate are many former Pro
gressives farmers, business men
working men; and, In fact, representa-
tives of every class OF citizens max
ing up the electorate.
Senator New is regarded as one OF
the Republican party's most indis-
pensable leaders in the senate and his
friends point out that his renomina-
tion and reelection are vitality neces
sary to the party's success in handling
the difficult problems confronting 1t at
Washington, especially in the restora-
ton OF national prosperity.

What They Mean
DID you DREAM OF FIRE7

TN REGARD to dreams about fire
L the mystics are not entirely agreed
They all seem TO agree that simply
10 dream Of a fire is favorable Omen
but some Of them attach unfavorable
meanings TO different circumstances
which may arise in connection with
the dream fire. Many OF them predict
that IL you dream OF a conflagratiOn
in which your house or your place Of
business is burned down. you will have
many business troubles, but will come
through them all right. Others say
that II you see fire In which the
burning houses have fallen down II
Is a most favorable omen and not so
good a one II the houses still stand.
The consensus OF opinion Is that to
see any fire and not get burned by II
denotes health, fortune and happiness.
To burn yourself In your dreams is
not favorable prognostication, but to
dream that you touch the fire and are
not burned, most favorable one.
Most authorities agree that while to
dream or fire Is a promise OF good
luck. IL also means that you are likely
10 have quarrel with a friend. though
some declare that you must see the
fire start suddenly to be sure OF
quarrel. and all agree that the dispute
will be over a trifle. If you extinguish
the fire, surprise Is In store for you.
To see sparkling fire on a hearth or
in stove, denotes plenty Of money.
Ii a woman builds a fire without any
trouble, she will be happy and have
many children.
II she has difficulty In making the
fire burn, the omen is the reverse.
The scientists regard the fire dream
simply as remlniscence from our
nursery days when we were warned
not 10 play with matches and schedule
this dream as one OF the typical or
standard ones.
AS the scientists don't entirely agree
with the mystics, and the mystics don't
entirely agree among themselves with
regard TO the significance OF dream
fre II would seem 10 be case where
each OF the rest OF US was entitled 10
his own opinion.

Senator New and President Hard

Friends OF Senator New point out
that his leadership. coupled with the
fact that he is so close in the counsel

unusually desirable for another term
as a senator from Indiana X is
pointed out that Senator News quiet,

These friends emphasize the fact
that Senator News ability to cooper

OF an obstructionist.

SUGAR TARIFF NO :
AID TO FARMERS
Consumers Taxed for Benefit Of
Factories, Not Beet Growers.
WOOL BENEFITS QUESTIONED
FaIr TarIfY League Head Says Beets
Are Not Important American
Crop.
BY n. z. MILES,

Chairman Of the Fair Tariff League.
Sugar In the beet, the product OF
the farm. is given a protection OF $50
ad valorem in the Fordney Tariff BIZ
now beforeS Congress.
Refined sugar, the product OF the
beet sugar factory. Is protected with
a specific rate equivalent To from 800
TO 1000 ad valOrem on the basis Of
present prices.
For example, the Michigan sugar
factory receives prohibitlve protec-
tion against the Importation OF the
product OF the Canadian sugar factory,
but the Michigan sugar beet farmer
receives practically no protection
against the Canadian sugar beet
In view of this farmers are asking
II the G0Z Increase In the tariff on
Cuban raw sugar contained In the
Fordney Tariff BIZ. is an effort to pro
tect the farmer or an effort TO pay a
further bonus 10 an already sufficient
ly protected beet sugar industry.
All farmers use sugar. They usually
buy II in 100 pound sacks. Every time
farmer buys a sack OF sugar he pays
$500 as the result OF the tariff on
sugar. Half Of this goes To the Gov
ernment and half Of II 10 the beet
SUGAR manufactures.
This is true because we consume In
this country twice as much sugar IA
We make. but the price Of sugar 70 tn
farmer Is the Cuban price plus tn
tnriff But the farmer pays this price
on both the domestic sugar and tht
foreign sugar. Therefore the farmei
pays half OF this tax TO the Govern
ment end half To the manufacturer o.
beet sugar In this country.
Sugar Beets a Minor Product
The farmer might feel that he was
getting some benefit out Of this II the
raising OF sugar beets was actually an
Important American agricultural pun,
suit. This. however, Is not the case.
The crop acreage Of sugar beets for
1870 was co.. 2.455 The crop acreage
for peanuts was 1.25e.000. almost dou
Bile the acreage devoted TO the cultiva-
tiun OF sugar beets.
The following table indicates the
Importance Of the acreage devoted to
sugar beets as compared with certain
