PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has announced that he will make no change in the pension bureau. Commissioner Evans is satisfactory to him and to Grand Army Commander-in-Chief Tor-re-nee.

HENRY WATTKKSON is a candidate for governor of Kentucky with a view to having his name presented to the national Democratic convention for President. Mr. Watterson is a brilliant, and patriotic citizen and here's to success for him—up to election day.

CONGRESSMAN MIEKS, a Democrat, says of the new President: Personally. I have a very high regard for President Roosevelt. lie is a man of ability, courage and conviction. 1 am of the opinion that his administration will lie clean and, after a time, peculiarly an administration of his own."

THE growing necessity for a study and practice of forestry is admitted by every one who makes the slightest investigation into the [subject. What we need is a practical application of it right here in Montgomery county. What has become of the forestry committee of the Commercial Club?

THE experiment station at Purdue has issued a pamphlet on the production and delivery of milk, which every dairyman might read with profit both to himself and to his customers. It gives in detail the financial and sanitary advantages of up-to-date methodsa A one can secure a copy of this pamphlet by addressing C. S. Plumb, Lafayette.

ROBERT J. LOWERY, head of the Lowery National bank of Atlanta, Ga.. colonel and chief of staff of tho Democratic governor of his state, admitted in an interview that he had become a Republican.

He said: "The old Republican party is composed of negroes, chronic office holders and a few poor whites. Now, however, whites.of the better class are joining the party. "I was a democrat before 1890. Now I am a Republican. 1 think, and many former Demounts think with me, that it is necessary for the country that Republican principles should prevail. Tho Republicans carried thirty or forty counties in the campaign of 18!j(i We have the createst confidence and respect in President Roosevelt."

It is of such men as Mr. Lowery that the new Republican partyiof the south is to be con posed.

8UUA.U WAKKAltH.---

A somewhat bitter warfare is springing up between the suijar trust and the beet sugar manufacturers. The sugar trust has entire control of tho cane sugar production and the refining of that kind of sugar. The beet sugar men have been selling their product a fraction of ft cent low. than tiie price fixed by the trust-. The trust has now rennctd its price for rcfireo sugar in all the Missouri river country to '1/2 cents, which is said to be lower than beet sugar can be sold without lo-s to the manufacturers of that" kind of sugar. The evident purpose of the trust is to break down the supar beet business, and destroy ?all competition from that source but this wlh he a serious undertaking, for the ber-tsu^or indu-try.has been greatly developed in this country in the last few yearthat it, can perhaps hold out against any effort the sugar trust may make to break it down. Many new factories are now being constructed in various states of tho went, and northwest, a*id many congressmen from these states will side with the beer, sugar men in all efforts for free sugar from Cuba.

Porto Rico, the Philippine Islands and Hawaii. But whatever shape the controversy may assume, it is clear that congress should do nothing to cripple our great and growing beet sugar industry, which is now becoming one of the leading indu-tries of the country. Ex-Secretary Wilson, of the agricultural department has recently predicted that in a very few years the beet sugar factories will be able to supply the whole demand for home consump lion. This is a consummation devoutly to be wished.

Captain Cook's new testimony related to the uncoupling of the Brooklyn's engines and to (lie voyage of the flying squadron from Cientueg is to Santiago, explaining in some detail the cause of the slow progress made on that, occasion. Commander Sears spoke again of the conversation reported as having taken place between himself and officers of the Massachusetts. in the wardroom of that vessel on May 111, in which lie was alleged to have said that it had been difficult to get Commodore Schley up to the point of undertaking the bombard lm-nf of the Colon, and he again de uied that he had said anything re.Sect iiig upon his superior officer.

Commander Mason and Lieu ton.nit MeCauiey and Websler all gave accounts of the engagement of July a. Mr. MeCauiey recited in detail the signals made in connection with that historical event at the instance of Commodore Schley. When asked if Commodore Schley had said anything during the battle for the encouragement of ii men this witness replied that: he several times had said: "Give •em hell, bullies."

All tin! witnesses testified that the conduct of the commodore when under lire was cool and courageous.
