The average yield Is 2.640 pounds per hectare, tbe cost of which varies! from 230 to 131 per 220 pounds; the average selling: price is from S2S to 130 per 100 kilograms. As it requires only about C5 ounces of hops for 1 hectoliter (25 gallons) , of beer, the proposed; protec tion of 220 per ,100 kilograms - (220 pounds) of hope would add but from 2 to- 2.5 cents to, tbe cost of 1 hectoliter of beer. .

" It appears that Mr. Cleveland did. -In fact, have a chat with the newspaper man who Is involved. The matter In difference is this: Mr. Clevetands says that the idea of an interview for pub lication was distinctly disclaimed; he also declares that tbe printed material s is not the semblance of the tbinjrs he " said. V. - On the; other side, the correspondent a vers, that he had an Interview with the Princeton fisherman, be says he is ready, to prove that the Interview was definitely arranged for and he adds that if instead of a general disclaimer, Mr. Cleveland will specify wherein he is misquoted, then bis denials can be dealt with. - One-can easly see where the trouble lurks. This Interview was altogether of tbecommonplace sort. Of late Mr. Cleveland has been prolific. With coy denials of current rumors associating his name with the Presidency. The talk he now repudiates is in the nature t of a statement - that, he, really and truly, ls' not seeking the Presidency and win, not be out for it. But "the trouble with the repudiated interview is that Mr. Cleveland's lay ing aside of a Presidential ambition is not adroitly put. It is too plain as an assertion that he is not to be a candi date. . It does not leave enough open. for the public to guess at. It slurs those who are shouting loud for Cleve land hei is quoted as saying that no body "of any prominence Is advocat Ing himi ; ' ' This 'style of interview doesn't suit, Mr. Cleveland; he repudiates the thing and he hastens into print with his de nlals. . The truth Is that, even if tbe Interview be genuine, it is a matter of very small -account, one way or the other. The presumption prevails that - if the situation looks good to him a year from, now, Mr. Cleveland will go In for It. lOnly. the thing will be done m a way to make i appear that in his case the nomination seeks the man and not the man tbe nomination. nanza creek belonging to tbe North American Transportation and Trading Company.

Last year the Klondike's gold output fell several millions short of what it was expected to reach, and the belief that the district had seen its best days came to be generally entertained. The earlier wash-ups of the present season are. however, causing a revision of this opinion. Latest returns from Dawson City indicate an Increase of from $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 in this year's output as compared with thai" of 1902.

The Klondike is evidently a long way from being a "played-out mining camp. ) ' A NEW RAPID TELEGRAPH. Dean B. Mason, Ice and Deputy Consul deneral at Berlin. Germany, reports to the State Department at Washington that a new Invention re lating to rapid telegraphy Is undergo ing a" practical . tert, - the results of which should receive due consideration In the United States. The system is known as the Pollak-Virag rapid tele graph, and after a careful, examination at the Polytechnic Institute at Char lottenburg it was shown to the Em peror and Empress of Germany about the middle of last February. It was decided at this visit by the chief of the German postal system and other Influential persons that : the new ays tern would be given a practical test on the iipe between Berlin and Konigs- berg, which is some 710 kilometers (447 miles) long." The results obtain ed with the new system are considered most satisfactory,; as it has been dem- onstarted that 40,000 words per hour can be transmitted under the mot varying conditions. The Imperial tele graph' service has decided to ..intro duce the system cm the busy llne be tween Berlin and Frankfort. " a A special writing machine, which Is worked in tbe usual way, perforates a strip of paper which Is. drawn over a roller under metallic brushes with great rapidity. The interruptions of the current move the membranes of two telephones al the receiving station. which write the-roeaags bw means of a small mirror. In scientific circles the new system 'has "created a great deal of. Interest, and some of tbe technical Journals In Germany have given scriptlons of It. ' PROPOSED FRENCH HOPS. TARIFF ON According" to the report to the State Department of John C Covert. United States Consul at Lyons, France, there are now before the French Chamber of Deputies several bills involving tariff changes or tbe fixing of a bounty upon certain products which may exert' an indirect influence on like American products. These 1411s wiU in all prob abtijy become laws at the present ses sions 'of Parliament. According to the custom In French legislation, the i authors- of these measures publish" in ; connection with them the arguments upon which they Christ and civilization to the benighted neatnen. Why should not a concerted effort be made to convert these Ken tucky outlaws? It would be a danger ous and tedious undertaking, but worthy of - the noblest effort of man. Why should not Rev. Sam Jones go straight to Jackson- and begin to preach? He is a brave man. He has met. flaunted vice In every city in the country and put it to rhame; he is not afraid to say what he thinks and to preach the truth, without respect of persons. Why, we ask, should he pot make a characteristic 1 campaign In Breathitt county, and keep at it until he haa the assassins all down on. their knees, praying to be spared from the wrath to come,' Rev. Sam will go. We have no doubt of It, but he ought to be equipped for the enterprise. The lov ers of law, the Christian people of the land, should equip him,, give him the sinews of war. to wit. the money for expense, the tents, the hymn books and the sinegrs. We feel convinced that education in moral life is what those pople need and that Mr. Jones is the man qualified by God to give It. Let him proceed. The harvest Is . great. Mr. Jones will find there labor ready to his hand. The ministers are also enlisted for the war. . It is their hope to arouse a sentiment throughout the land that shall make it Impossible for the United Mates Senate to permit Smoot's re tention of his seat. They will endeav or to show the falsity of the claim that since the enactment of the Edmunds law polygamy has been abandoned In Utah. -They arsert that polygamy is still practiced there, though not .so openly as formerly; that the basic prin ciples of the Mormon church have nev er been changed in obedience to any law of this Government; and that plu ral marriage is still considered the pro per state for the Mormon "saint." The charge is also brought that Mor mon immigrants are landed on our Eastern rhores every week and hurried to Utah. A,t, present the immigrants arov largely. Swedes and Norwegians. They are shipped second or third class to Ogden and each party is under the guidance of one or more members of t he - Mormon church. The immigrants are young and vigorous men and wo men. , It is said' that the young women are jn the majority. It is evident that thw have been tempted to Utah by the tales of . its rich farming lands. This constant stream of immigration Is be ing viewed with suspicion. Mr. Smoot is In possession of his seat and "no charge of polygamy is pending against him "personally. It will require immense effort to oust him, and it Is not believed In well-informed Washing ton circles that his removal will Ue ac complished. But the war against him will be exciting and perhaps Instruct ive.-- The state of Delaware has Its name stained by the disgrace of the burning at the stake of a negro, at Wilmington. The dishonor has been passed around quite! generally among the states. This was the case of a negro who had com mitted the usual crime for which the burnings have been meted out. his vic tim being a young girl, whom the black brute murdered. It Is an awful thing, this burning of human beings at the stake. But place yourself in the place of the fatherpr brother of the, yung girl, and it may not seem so terrible. But the burning of the black brutes at the stakes does not seem to diminish the crime for which they are burned. MR. SMOOT AGAIN. The people who are opposed 'to Reed Smoot in the capacity ot a United States Senator ' are still after him. hammer jjid tonga. They announce that they 'are about to wage vigorous war on Mormon ism in general and Reed Smoot In particular. The other day Mrs. James, president of the Inter- Denominatlonal Council of Women, ar rived in Salt Lake prepared to camp on Reed Smoot's trail- She will investi gate the conditions obtaining amor.
