In my observations on the sugar question there were some things omit ted, to make the understanding more complete. All of the mills except the Medicine Lodge plant lacked capital and some of the mills in addition found their water supply inadequate. Col.

Eldred, the only successful operator tbe first year, assured me that all the plants in the state would be ope rated, and all the obstacles to success now known, would be removed. The Medicine Lodge plant did not get ready to start until the last of Septem- ber, they lost 18 days. Eldred knows why, and would obviate that In another plant. They run 42 days; dai ly consumption of cane. 166 2-3 tons.

Tbe season is for cane 00 to 100 days. Beets can be worked from November 1st to March 1st, about 120 days. Col Eldred and his associates will bind themselves under satisfactory bonds to put up four plants, each plant having a capacity of 200 tons. Now it is but just to say they might not this season reach a fun seven mon ens run on ac count of tbe delay in voting the aid, but they would be ready next seaton for a full seasons run. Now let us estimate on a full season, 200 tons to each plant, four plants 800 tons, 800 tons cane at 10c per ton 180 daily, 100 days $8,000.

The law does not provide for beets but the local company mentioned in my former letter have talked this matter over an 1 proposes as part of the contract that twenty cents per ton shall be set aside for beets. Two hundred tona beets, at 20 cents, $160.00 daily, 120 days run $19,200.00, total $27,200. Iaterest on tbe bonds as per Hildreth's estimate, $8000. Balance to sinking fund $19,200. Put $19,200 to sinking fund for ten years and we have $192,000.

Total is sue of bonds $160,000, on hand for margin and no( needed $32,000. Tour readers must not confound the figures of a short run the first season with tbe idea that our local board would allow small plants to be built. If the Medicine Lodge plant br any of the other plants had plenty of material to work up, and plenty of capital to have, bought and paid the running expenses, with plenty of water, and had been ready at the beginning of the sea son, far different results would have been shown. Now I ask your readers to bear in mind. First, The local company propose to have 200 ton plants.

Thee i plants will be complete for cane and beets. Al lowing 6 months run say 155 days at 200 tons per dav, total consumption 124.000 tons, 60,000 tons cane at 10c per ton $6,000. 64,000 tons beets at 20o per ton to apply on bonds 800. To pay interest on bonds $8,000. Balance to sinking fund annually 800.

Tbe bonds have 15 years to run. Now in this last estimate I have al lowed for incidental delays of 65 days. One word in regard to my estimate of amount to be paid to farmers and la borers. I estimated a run of one hundred days on cane at 200 hundred ton per day. 200 tons to each plant, total daily consumption 800 tons at $2 per ton, or $1,600 per day, total for 100 days $160,000.

I also estimated 100 days on beets 800 tons per day at $4 per ton, although Medicine Lodge paid $5 for the best quality, $32,000 per day 100 days. $320,000. Total paid out for cane, $480,000. From W. W.

Cook's a 200 days run would cost for labor $96,000. There would be 280 men employed. Total oost for labor, cane and beets $576,000. If the parties wilt not bind themselves to put in plants of the above mentioned capacity the local company will not contract with them. I notice by the daily papers that the Ness City Sugar company have contracted for 2000 acres of cane and 1000 of acres beets.

Chas. R. Munger Death of ReT. Mr. Ferayth.

The Rev. W. H. Forsyth died at his home at Halstead Monday morning, aged 67 years. Mr.

Forsyth was admitted to the Baltimore Conference of tbe Methodist Episcopal church in 1868 and was transferred to the Virginia Conference of the same church in 1869. He afterward came west and was admitted to the Southwest Confer ence in 1885 and was appointed to Leon, Butler couniy. For the past three years he has been living at Hal-stead enjoying bis declining years in quiet with bis family. He was tbe father of C. E.

Forsyth and Clarence Forsyth, formerly of The Republi can office. Another Fire. Fire broke out in the rock building on East tiixth street occupied by J. O. Chandler of the Newton Granite Works, at 12:80.

o'clock to-day. The alarm was promptly given and the oity firemen were on hand at once and in a few moments had the flames subdued. Tbe entire roof of the structure was burned and some of tbe interior walls. Tbe fire is thought to have caught from a small forge or fireplace. The Hop Yeast company were about to begin business in tbe south end of the building and their loss as well as Mr.

Chandler's will be quite considerable. Chandler's building was insured, he having taken out a policy this morning. His stock was saved. The Salva tion Army Barracks had a very close call and owe their existence to the good work of the firemen. The Laat Itajr.

Patterson, are busy at their books. The Rev. Mr, Veazie, state evange list of the Congregational church, will be here to begin meetings at Mr. Pinch's church next Sunday. Becker Garten, the grocers, have rented tbe storeroom on tbe corner of Main and Broadway recently occupied by J.

W. Oakley. They will move in shortly. A special order has been received from tbe Catholic bishop by The Rev. M.

J. Casey suspending the fast during Lent except on Wednesdays and Fridays. This order has been issued on account of the Russian Influenza that has been so prevalent of late. The Republican was mis-Informed in regard to the iremea not being needed at the Ore yesterday in the Lehman block. The Are occurred early and the reporter got bis information from one there, and understood him to say that tbe men that ran to their assistance had the Ore out when the firemen got there.

Tbe boys did "get there," however, and it was by their efforts chiefly that the fire was put out. Mr. Lehman and tbe rest are very grateful to the boys for their splendid service. State Journal: At Newton they call them "fire laddies" but honeyed words will not heal wounds or pay doctor bills. One of the firemen at a fire not long ago was badly injured by a ladder falling on him and knocking him through a store front, severing the extension tendon of bis thumb.

The in ured man appealed to the city council to pay his doctor bill, and that gener ous hearted body laid tbe claim on the table, where it bas lain ever since. The accident caused the man the loss of five weeks work and wlfi surgical expenses nearly 100. It the city council of Newton wants to secure public respect, it should pay the bills of tbe city's volunteer firemen, injured in the city's service. i St hosiery yi Trade Villi i wf.a (U Yy 2k. 1 1 7 $3- SR4XT.

One of the politest and moat considerate of those people is Janson B. Butten. a man of limited means, financially, bat rich in courtesy. One day Janaoo, a bachelor, by tbe way. rode np to the fenoe surrounding the house of Mrs.

Greg, a widow, and seeing ber sweeping tbe yard, thus addressed her: "Oh, Mis Greg, have you got time to come here tninltf I want to see you on a little matter of business." "I am in a patty big hurry to git this yard done, Mr. Sutten, an' if your business ain't so mighty important, w'y, I'd like fur you to put if off "All right. rU be back this way in about an hour from now. an' if you ain't busy then I'll tell yon what I want Good mornin'." Janson rode away, and about an hour afterward he again rode up to the fence. "Btill busy, Mis Gregl" "Yea, fur I ain't got the yard done yet, an' I wanted to finish it befo' the preacher comes." "When do you look for himp' "Most any intuit now." "Wall, then, I reckon I'll bave to wait a while longer, for I don't want you to be embarrassed on my account" "How long would it take to attend to tha business you've got on hand, Mr.

Button "Oh, uot long, but we can put It off easy enough. I Jest wanted to aak you to marry me, but I'll wait till you git the time. Good mo'nin', Mix Greg." Arkansa Traveler. Five Times Two English travelers in the east one day entered the shop of a Jew who, though be spoka several other languages, had but alight acquaintance with English. On his failure to make tbe Jew understand what he wanted one of the travelers said carelessly to the otheri "Tha old fool doesnt speak English," Unfortunately this remark came within the radius of the Jew's comprehension and drew from him tbe following questions: "Do you spik ItaJianf "No," answered both.

"DoyoDspikOrikr" "No." "Do you spik TurkT "No." "Do you spik 8panu.hr "No." "Do you spik Frenchr "No." Then, after a pans for preparation, tbe old man ejaculated, energetically! "Me one time fool; you live times fool." Philadelphia Times. A boot Rivers. Rivers have their eccentricities and you cannot always rely upon them. In times of the greatest commercial prosperity they will sometimes get up a run upon their banks. In the dry susson they are very slothful, hardly leaving their beds for days at a time.

You consider them poor housekeepers, until some day you see them get up and sweep everything before them. Knowing little of fruit generally, tbey are well up in currents. Tbe career of a river is short at tha longest, and even then it is liable tn be considerably -bridged. If arrested In its course, how-aver, it Is Judged by a Jury of its piers. When a young man runs wild his friends are always plaaaed to see him change his course, lloto with a river; when it changes Its course the result la often disastrous.

Such waa the case at Los Angeles, CL, recently, worn the river of that name, after being en a "high" for soma time, suddenly changed its course almost at right angles. Just south of the city limits, ruining orchards and destroying tbe growing crops. Texas Sittings. A Gourmand. Graves-Does Feed well live in good stylel Ee haant much of an incoms, I fancy.

To the Editor of 1 he Republican. What shall I write about when nothing happens? As Halstead Is going to build a railroad to connect with tbe Frisco, why not come to Patterson instead of Bent-ly? A ltne will soon be built from here to Hutchinson and then we would hive connections here north, east, seuth and west. Think of it gentlemen of tbe Halstead Belt Line ompany. Mr. Fox is ready at all times to pay the highest market price fur stock, which is a great convenience to farmers who bave hitherto bad to take their stock to the Santa Fe or Missouri Pacific roads.

A large amount of corn Ts being shipped from bere to St. Louis. Mr. Saylor looks very comfortable in his new buggy. He will soon make a short call on all his neighbors.

Tbe preacher went home with Mr. Woodward from church one evening where thev arrived in a very muddy condition. Tbey said they got lust on the way and got into some mud-holes. As prohibition prohibits in Patterson we must accept that explanation. The Drotracted meeting was closed last night and another one commences at tbe Star school house under the charge of Rev.

Irwin, the M. minis ter staUoneJ at Mount Hope. The Hudson Brothers will give llt-literary entertainment at Patterson soon which will doubtless be very fine. We are sorry to learn tbatMr. Cox, our station agent, intends taking another station in May.
