YET THE COOLIE TRADE THRIVES Supported by American Consumers, Ig norant of tho Dupn to Which May Bo Kspotod. Tiw people probably tne worm oyer, MiticalarlT in this aotive, vigorons tals into their tea and ooffee, ever stop to consider the origin of sugar, its cen turies of nse and improvement, its en ormous factorship in trade channels ramifying the complete circle of the globe, in almost every nation, of every clime, and the prodigious figures reached in the volume of its manu facture and consumption. A brief synopsis of the growth of this remark able produot might not prove uninter esting to the reader hereof. Formerly chemists called every sweet substance sugar. The original habitat of sugar cane has never been fully established, but so far as known, was first cultivat ed in the oountry from China to Ben gal, and did not reach the West from India until a later date. The art of boiling sugar was known in Oangetio India from which it was carried to China during the first half of the sev enth century, dot, sngar renuing was not known, for the Chinese learned the use of ashes for this purpose only in (he Mongol period and from European visitors. Cane sugar was first analytic ally made practical in 1610 by Fra brizio Bartoli, who isolated the sugar of milk and proved its individuality. Not, however, until the 18th century did Marggraf make the important dis covery that the juices of beets, carrots, eta. were identical with one another and with sugar of cane. It is remark able how the trade centers of sugar have during the ages varied. Sugar refining was developed by the Arabian nhysioians. In the age of discovery the Spaniards became the producers of susar cultivation, being planted by them in Maderia in 1420, carried to San Domingo in 1404, and thence into the West Indies and South America in the 16th century, and from the duties levied by Charles V, that monarch ob tained funds to build his palaces at - Madrid and Toledo. In the Middle Ages, Venioe was the great European center of the sugar trade and toward the end of the 15th century, it is re corded of a Venetian citizen being awarded 100,000 orowns for his inven tion of loaf sugar. The earliest reference to sugar in Great Britain is that of 100,000 pounds shipped to London in 1319 in exchange for wooL At this same time the ao oonntsof the chamberlain of Scotland show the payment of 1 shilling OX pence per pound for sugar, or about 47 M cents per pound in United States money. Throughout Europe it con tinued to be quite a costly luxury, be ing used for medioinal purposes only, until increasing use of tea and ooffee, in the 18th oentury, brought it into as it is today the list of staple pro ducts. The first discovery of common sugar in beet root referred to above, was in 1747, by Sigmnnd Marggraf, but no practical use of his disoovery was made until his pupil and snooes- sor, Franz Carl Aohaed, in Silesia, in 1801, took up his sugar predecessor's work and established a beet-sugar fac tory. To show the phenomenal growth of this produot, the consumption of susar in Great Britain in 1700 was 10,000 tons; in 1800, upwards of 150, 000 tons, and in 1885, it had grown to over 1,250,000 tons. In Europe it is an industry of na tional importance, especially in Ger many, which nation oontrols an im mense output The world's product a few years ago was about 1,750,000 tons, the greatest consumers of which are the Gothio and Teutonio stock, the English and their offshoots being the highest. The output in Europe of beet toot a few years ago was 85,000,000 tons, and its product in sugar 1,811, uJf too tons. Crops range from five tons of root per aore in Russia, to nine tons in Germany, while in England it has risen to twelve tons per aore. It takes about fourteen tons of root per ton of sugar generally in Europe, the propor tion of saccharine matter being 7 per oent now, to 4 per cent twenty years ago. Where Do Americans Stand Having given the above very brief synopsis of the history of sugar, let ns now look for a moment at the post tion of the United States in this induS' try and the possible dangers constantly surrounding us, particularly on the Western coast, from importations from Chinese-made sugar, and realize the consequence of paying tribute to foreign labor, foreign capital and foreign ships in an article placed upon neatly every table in the land; from the banquet table of the rioh, to the lowly, humble, uncovered board, serving as table, in the lowliest cottage of its poorest in' habitant, and deduce, if possible our remedy in the matter. It will be oon oeded, we think, that the American workmen, as a whole, reoeive more pay than corresponding labor in any other country; are the most prosperous; have more money to obtain their desires, and consume more of tne necessaries and luxuries of life, generally speaking, than those of any other nation, yet it is a singular faot that in the consumption of suirar they are behind the English about 14 per oent, the proportion being about 781 pounds per capita in Great nritiiln. to 591 J pounas per capita in thA United Statoa. For a long term the working classes have groaned under AamwaiMd times, connniwa sazanon, ,j.a want of amnions eut, and It ii of and to our own home people of the Paoifio ooast we desire to speak more directly, with all the sincerity words may impress. We have called upon our lawmakers to protect them from the notoriously cheap labor aoross the Paoifio, by the passage of the exclusion aot, yet every day we are aiders and abettors in sending money to that filthy, pestilential, disease-spreading raoe. Just think of this for one mo ment! Daring the years 1894-1895, the people of Oregon and Washington paid to foreign manufacturers and pro ducers in Honsr Kong the enormous sum or $1,000,000 for Chinese sugar alone: this appalling figure, made up from the quarters, halves and dollars of the people, never to return. Just think of it I Could this amount have been retained among ourselves, what a wonderful factor those 1,000,000 hard earned dollars would have been during the many hard, hard months of econo mizing and pinohing and starving through which we have just passed. If it were necessary that we should buy a a necessary staple like sugar abroad in order that we might sell our surplus of some other produots, we might as well, perhaps, buy sugar as anythng else, but suoh is not the necessity, we can sell our products at tne worm s price, which is our market with others, and what we do when we ex port If in return, however, for our products we reoeive baok coin in pay ment we are just that muoh better off. The pernioions trade in Chinese sugars whioh has grown to large proportions on our Paoifio ooast, is deplorable to think of. Americans, free working- men, supporting the labor of a race of people born in poverty, reared in squalor and living in pestilenoe and disease. Yon have but to walk tnrougn any oity of any consequence, having a Chinese quarter, made to a oertain ex tent wholesome by the sanitary laws of a better civilization surrounding them to realize the beggary, the stench, the nauseous handling of a moribund pop ulation whose labor exists upon the payment of 12 oents for a day's labor. We have seen how the Chinese live in our own midst, thousands of them hud dled and bunked together in dark, nar row rooms, void of ventilation, the foul stench of whioh makes the strongest heart wow sick, and draw our own conclusions, in buying Chinese sugar. A gentleman who came to America when the cholera and plague prevailed in the Orient, said "that every pack age of merchandise, and even silk, etc., should be fumigated thoroughly to eradicate the cholera germs lurking in that disease-stricken oountry." These are not idle words, but the deep sounding words of warning from one knowing well the dangers to whioh we are subjected, from an eye-observer of the natives themselves, and the hor rors of the ghastly work of death among that myriad of fast-breeding, pestilential people. Suoh are the risks taken by every person buying umnese- made goods. Suoh the ohanoea, unneces sary chances against the homes of our working people, and without cause other than the support of degraded, ill paid labor, as described. These faota are daily becoming better known to our own neonle. So much so that many stores now display the sign, We handle the American Kenned Sugars only," and it is a safe rule to follow, where no suoh announcement is made, to be sure you are not getting China-made sugar is to ask the question or promptly transfer your custom. See that you are supplied with no other than the Amerioan-made artiole, made by Amerioan workmen, in American cleanly faotories, operated by American capital, paying Amerioan wages, in good American coin and keeping that Amerioan money at home, not sending it abroad to support the Chinese nation. We have here in our own glorious state of Oregon and sister state of Washington as evidenoed by the exposi tion of the Manufacturers' and Pro ducers' Association, one of the greatest fields for beets this or any other ooun try can produce. In rejecting the ooolie-made sugar, and buying only American-made goods, you are enoour aging and strengthening the hands of your neighbor farmer, and building up an industry in which you will your self share, and in time proudly realize the greatness of the soil upon which we live and whioh God has blessed with a special providence as unsurpassed on the face of the globe. "NOT THAT KIND OF A BOY." Queer Aotlr of a Candidate Wot Admis sion to a College Fraternity. A. E. Bailey, a young man from Helena, walked down State street, Chi cago, at 8 o'clock the other night with his eyes tightly ba minced arid wearing on his head au enormous straw hat trim med with old ropes, onions and two de coy ducks. The crowd that followed the fantastio figure grew so latge a police man filially stepped up and said: "Look here, my man, are you crazy?" "No," softly replied Mr. Bailey. "I'm not that kind of a boy." This did not satisfy the policeman and he was about to take Bailey to the station when four yonng men, who had been walking on each side of the blind folded man, rushed up and said Bailey was simply being initiated into the mys teries of the Delta Sigma Delta frater nity of the Chicago College of Dental Surgery. The explanation was sufficient, and the dental stodents and their victim wended on. On every corner a stop was made and Bailey plied with questions, to nil of which he had to answer, in the words of a placard on his bat, "Mo, I am not that kind of a boy." The last seen of Bailey was when he was sitting patiently in a dark stairway on Dearborn street His companions had started to the theater after asking Bailey if be would like to go. "Yes that is, no," said the young man from Montana. "I am not that kind of a boy. "Chicago Tribune. A LIVING SHADOW REMARKABLE TRANSFORMATION OF A NORTH CAROLINA MAN.

Laflin, the strong man, he who challenged Sullivan aud was used as a model by Gerorue, the great French painter, is about to inan gnrate a way on cigarettes. Professor Laflin bos always been a deadly enemy of the cigarette, but now he bos taken his coat off and is going to work to fight the evil in earnest Be is compiling statistics which would frighten any cigarette smoker who bad a particle of sense remaining. These include antbentio records of cases all over the Union of boys and young men who have been brought to on un timely end by indulging the habit. They also include facts aud figures which physicians and college professors have compiled on the subject, based up on experience and experiment This matter will go to form a book which Professor Laflin is writing. He also aims to band together the Sunday schools of the country in one vast anticigarette league that will strike a harder blow at the cigarette trust than any of its competitors. Clergymen are to be interested in the new movements, and there are to be branch clubs in ev ery state and city of the country. No better exhibit could be found for the lecture platform than Professor Laflin himself, who has been called "the per fect man" physically, and who never smoked a cigarette in his life.

Cbolly Knicker bocker in New York Recorder. Photographing French Criminals. The system of photography in nse is peculiar to the service and is the result of its experiments. Tt is free from all conventional operations, for the photo graph is made simply to be recognized. The poses chosen are: A perfect profile, since that gives a sort of anatomical cut of the face; then a full face view, since there one has the habitual expres sion and the pose of the head. The pic ture is never retouched, since scars, moles and spots are such infallible means of identification. Absolute uni formity is sought in the size, form and style of the different photographs. In order that the distance may be invaria ble the chair and camera are screwed to the floor, and there is a perfect system of adjustment. The light is thrown into the face. The result is bard on the sub ject. One does not care to display bis judicial photograph, but for the purpose they are admirably, brutally exact. McClure's Magazine. Thirty-Are Tears For a Fen Dollars. An old man in England was sent to prison for four months for petty steal ing whose record, the judge who sen tenced him said, "is one of the most awful pieces of reading that has ever come to my notice. " In 18G3 he was sent to jail for three years for stealing two tame rabbits. He then got seven years for stealing 5 shillings and a shawl, then ten years, with seven years' police supervision, for stealing three ducks, and finally consecutive sentences of five years each on three charges of stealing a coat, a pair of reins and a shovel, with another seven years' police supervision.

Notwithstanding the continued steady loss of gold, it is still asserted at the treasury department that there is no immediate prospect of a bond issue, and that such action will not be considered while the balance remains above the $75,000,000 limit, and not even in case it should fall to that figure unless con gress fails to take cognizance of the situation at least to the extent of provid ing some other method of maintaining the national credit by the protection of the gold balance. Washington Star. The following interview has just been given our reporter by Mr. G. A. Baker, the overseer at the farm of Colo nel Isaao A. Sugg, of Greenville, N. C. It will interest anyone who has ever had typhoid fever. Mr. Baker said in part: "I was living in Beaufort county, and on the 2d day of October, 1898, I was strioken down with typhoid fever. 1 had the best physicians to at' tend me and on the 15th day of Janu ary, 1894, I was allowed to get up. was emaciated, weak and had no appe tite. I could only drag along for a short distanoe and would be compelled to sit down and rest This continued for some time, and I began to give up hope of ever getting well. I lost my position in Beaufort county, and, hav ing secured one in Pitt county, clerk ing in a store, I undertook it, but was so weak I could not do the work and had to give it up. The disease settled in my knees, legs and feet I was tak ing first one kind of medicine and then another, but nothing did me any good. I was mighty low-spirited. I moved out to Colonel Sugg's about four or five months ago and oommenoed taking Dr. Williams' Pills. I took three a day for about three months. I bejfen to regain my appetite in a week's time, and then my weakness began to disap pear, and hope sprung up with a bless edness that is beyond all telling. At the expiration of the three months I was entirely cured and could take my axe and go in the woods and do as good a day's work as any man. 1 was troubled with dyspepsia and that has disappeared. It is also a splendid tonio for weak people. I say, Mr. Editor, God bless Dr." Williams; may he live for a long time; I know he will go up yonder to reap his reward for he has done a wonderful lot of good. Tell everybody that asks you about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People that if they will oome to me I can always satisfy them as to their merits. I always carry a box of pills with me and when ever I feel bad I take one." We are forcibly struok with the earnestness of Mr. Baker and his state ments may be relied on. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are an unfailing speoiflo for suoh diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St Vitus' danoe, soiatioa, neuralgia, rheumatism, nerv ous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palplitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, all forms of weakness either in male or female, and all diseases resulting from vitiated hu mors in the blood.
