OHAND ISLAND , Neb. , Jan. 1C. ( Spec ! * ! .
The sugar beet ralncm of thU county had
'a rousing meeting at the city hall In this
city yesterday afternoon , permanently or
garilzlng themselves Into a beet growers' < is
.naclatlon , for Ihclr mutual protection and ad
vancemtnt , and adopted a contract which
will be submitted to President Oxnard a
once , and It la hoped will bo adopted , to
cover the growing of beetn for the Oxnard
company for the coming mason.
Heretofore the Iccl growers have never
, liad a voice In the formulation of the con
tract between the company and themselves
covering the cultivation of the beet crop
and thn result hai been that there has been
dissatisfaction , moro or less , every year
For the year Just past , and In one or two
other years , when the seaoon wao pirtlcu
, larly favorable , the complaints have no
"bcon of a serious nature. However , It Is
known that , surrounding every factory In
California and oven th.it at Norfolk , there Is
n beet growers' association , ami It was con
dldered best that organization bo effccte (
hero also. The only wonder In that such a
etep has not t.con taken years ago.
Thecoverfst complaint last > eariirc.jo fron
the Etrlct adherence to the contract by the
factory In regard to the content of the beet
There are aald to be Iratancci without num
her In which tlio Oxnard compiny paid les.
than the contract price for beets that Is less
than $1 when beets were found to contain
a purity of over SO per cent nnd a conten
of ailghtly legs ttun 12 per cent , or vice
versa , a purity of oay 7 ! ) per cent emd a
content of over 12 per coat. The require
ment of the contract wn. SO per cent purity
nnd 12 per cent sugar. The growers contend
' that In many IneN mcos the beets would It
fact be Lvqi ! il to the required standard , but
they wcro "docked" for the difference ex
isting In ono of the teats.
The company has already submitted Its
contract for the ensuing year , In which It Is
Htlpulated wh'U reduction shall lo ; made for
beetci comlJiif below the ataciUrd iequip
ment. The producers , however , felt that 1
lioeM falling below tlio contract standan
wcro worth less , those ranging above the re
quired standard vionUl bo worth compara
tively moro. The contract adopted by the
association section by section , yesterday
therefore makes n straight price of $1 per
ton for all beets that may bo .grown upon
the acreage contracted for , regardless of con
tract , specifying , however , that diseased or
worthless beets should not to Included. It
nluso rcgulatoa the "delIvory , specifying that
the company has the right to order In as
many bt'i'ta as It may need before October
10 , but 'that It must order In at least four
tons per acre between the 10th of October
end the 6th of November , etc. The cntlio
crop must be delivered before- the 20th day
of February. 1S99 , nnd 25 cents extra per ton
Is to be paid by the factory for all beets
sliced.
At the meeting yesterday there were over
150 beet m'ners In attendance and 110 p.iM
a small membership fee rnd became member *
of the awo-clatlon. Fred Haley Is president

WASHINGTON , Jan. 1C. ( Special. ) The
debate on the Hawaiian treaty during th '
last week has brought prominently before
the country conditions which the advocate
of the measure have been loath to concede
and ns It tookij at the preser.it moment the
bottom la liable to fall out of tha debate
within a very few days , The nnnexatlonlstii
are losing ground dally , they are losing hear
at the same time , nnd they are becomlnj
crabbed and somewhat soured over condition
ea they at present exist. They are In hopes
that should the mecsurc fall of ratification In
the senate that the legislative bill , whlcl
will In all probability bo brought In , wll
receive a majority in both houses. In this
the wish Is father to Iho thought , and there
Is no certainty that the house In Its presen
feeling will adopt cay measure looking to
the annexation of the Island ? .
Senator Thurston baa outlined his pcaltloi
In the public prints and his refusal to follow
the administration has. brought republicans
to a realization that Iho mere annexation o
the Islands lo not tlio only thing that we
must take Into consideration. Senator Gear
of Iowa , Scoator Spooncr of Wisconsin am
Senator Hoar of M.nisachusetta have within
the last day or two Indicated to their frle-ads
that they can sec no reason why they shouli
support the measure , and thus dally the
defection gees on.
Senator Alton outlined hi * pcaltlon very
oirly 'n the prrcent session , and with Thurs
ton In the opposition , Nebraska Is oolldly
arrayed against annexation. The senators
from Utah are wavering In the balance , am
It would not surnrlso anyone to llnd them
with the opposition to the measure when
the voteIs taken.
Senator Clark of Wyoming Is a pronounce
annexatlonlst and aces no rcusrri , ns he salt
to The Bee man , for any abatement of hlo
pcoltlon. Senator Warren of the same state
la on tha fence and there are so meay litho
the same position , It leads the disinterested
obssrver to believe as above , that the opposi
tion Is growing stronger dally.
Strollers In and out of the Rlggs house laat
week were somewhat surprised to tiee sitting
In ono corner of the lobby end unconcern
edly pulling large rlnga of tobacco smoke
Into the air an old man who wzij a deat
ringer for the president of the United States
There were excellent reasons why this little
old man end 1'rcaldcnt McKinley should look
alike ; they are what genealogists call double ,
twlctcd cousins. John Campbell lives In
Warren , 0. , where he Is the proprietor of the
Campbell house , a homo-like hostelry known
to all the country round about , and a haven
for theatrical companies visiting there. Mr.
Campbell said , Im speaking about his remark
able resemblance to the president : "Yen ,
William and I arc double cousins. Will'am's
mother and my father wera brother nnd sis
ter , and my mother and his father were
cousins. The raseniblar.ee between William
and mjself has gotten mo Into a lot ot diffi
culty , raid sometimes I regret that ths re-
oomblance Is so marked. And to be atoo-
lutcly correct , he looks llko mo more than I
look like him , for I am thirteen years his
senior. When I met William at his mother's
funeral he asked mo to come down and visit
him at the Whlto House , and I have decided
to Just run down and see how ho looks tri
that place where so meay of the illuutrious
men of the past made their home while In
Washington. "
There Is considerable crltlcl-m of the man
ner In which John Russell Young , librarian
of congress , Is dispensing patrcoago In con
nection with the library. In reply to a reso
lution of Senator Thurstoa calling upon him
to show the number of employes In that In-
etltutlcn , their fitness for library work , and
the states to which they are accredited , Mr.
Young shows that fifteen states are unrep
resented in the distribution. The summary
la interesting , the classification by states being -
ing as follows : Alabama , 1 ; Arizona , 1 ; Call-
foinla. 1 ; D'strict of Columbia , 1C ; Georgia ,

cut , Mi .sirsippl. Utah , Florida , Washington ,

The icply of Librarian Young having been
called to Senator Thurston's attention , he hcs
written a letter to the president In which he
Invites a perueal of the document , nnd very
courteously asks whether the d'atrlbutlon ot
patronage is In keeping with a former con
versation had with the president , wherein lie
said that the policy of the librarian would be
to apportlcn the employes to all the otatea.

Very few persons are probably aware of the
orlfi'lH of the word "deadhead , " which Is BO
retmently used In connection with theatri
cal representations. It la stated to bo an
follows : Many years ago , In the time of turn-
) lkc3 , the principal avenue or a town passed
close to t'ho entrance of a road leading to
ho cemetery. As this cemetery had been
aid out some time- previous to the construe-
Ion of the road It was arranged that all
unoral processions should be allowed to pass
along the latter free ct toll. Ono day aa a
veil known physician who was "driving " along
ho road stopped 'to ' pay ( Ms toll tie observed
o the keeper , "Considering the benevolent
hanjctor * f our profea lon I think you ought
o lot us pass free of charge. " "No , no ,
doctor , " said the gatekeeper , "wo can't af-
ord that ; you send too many deadheads
hrougJi as It to. " Tbo story tiaveled around
ho country and the word "deadhead" wis
eventually applied to those who obtained free
admission to the theater.

It was a homo talent show and wo But pa
tiently waiting for Iho unexpected to hap
pen , relates the Chicago Record. The
unexpected always happens with a homo tal
ent show , and an Inner mountain village
Is not proof against thin long accepted stage
fact. Wo strangers from the unrcKWicrato
cast , who were there In the mountains for
our healths' Bike , felt assured , therefore , of
an experience before the night shouM bo
over.
"It was "The Mikado * which was to bo pre
sented , tattered and torn by Its transit from
flrst-clasa theaters In the cast to the town
hall of Teton City. Wo had heard Nankl-
Pee as ho had sung about being n thing of
ahreda and patches , and wo had heard Ko-
Ko's announcement of his theories and
Ideas , and , were setting along fairly well In
our listening -when the kissing song was
reached. Then Red Pete Darker , who was
flinging Nankl Too , advanced to the foot
lights.
"Ladles and gentlemen , " the tenor singer
began , "this is a mighty poor place In tlu
show to Interrupt the proceedings to mnlto
a speech , but as certalra things are about to
hapnea , I think It la only fair that yon bo
put on. I have heard that Holy Moses Per
kins , who Is known and generally hailed
and greeted as the eventual husband of
Miss Betty Hoyler , who U taking the part
of Yum Yum has announced to nil concerned
that If I followed out the directions of the
book of this play and Insist on kissing the
lady there will 'bo ' five different kinds of
trouble. I hereby announce that I am going
to begin kissing the young lady In about
three minutes and shall keep right on klrs-
InK her through the whole blamed song , and
I further announce that I shall do that hiss-
Inc In full view of the audience. More
over It may be of Interest to you to know
that I have secreted In these long nnd flow-
lug robes two flrst-rato six-shooters right
ready for business. I am also armed with
fact that Holy Moses Perkins Is sitting In
seat No. 1C7 , which Is In plain view from the
stage. As the scene which Is about to bo
presented Is a cross between a delirious love
none and a homicide , awl as I shall caress
the young woman with ono eye on her beau-
tlous charms and ithe other on real No. 1C" ,
I hope you will overlook any little short
comings In the affair. I hate lo mention
such low , coarao things , but the gun which
I shall use first la a self-cooker and has
been recently oiled. Thanking you for your
kind attention , the show will now go on.
W6 listened to the rendition of the kiss-
kiss song with great Intercut , especially
those who wcro In range of scat No. 1G7.
Nothing happened , however , Mr. Perkins re
maining statuesciucly mute. Ilut when the
applause continued on Us demand for an en
core , Mr. Barker appeared once moro at the
sUgo front :
"Thank you , " ho said , "for this ? vindica
tion , but If you want some more of , It I am
compelled to say you can't hove it. I respect
Mr. Perkins' claims on the premises. Thank
you ono and all , and especially Mr. Perkins
who has this night sacrificed his feollnsj for
the advancement of art. The show will now
proceed. "
Wo then leaned back and listened respect
fully while Pooh-Bah told about his troubles
and his expectations.

An East End man wcs advised some tlmo
ago not to drink coffee , relates the Cleveland
Plain Dealer. His doctor told him It helned
to make his liver torpid and his liver was
doing Its beet to render llfo miserable for
himself nnd oil the rest of the family.
But , no. ho couldn't glvo up his two cups
at breakfast tlmo. He couldn't make the
sacrifice. Nothing could take the place of
the delicious Java and Mocha mixed that he
had learned to love.
Ono day his wife suggested In a mild way
that ho might bo just as well satisfied with
ono of the brands of Imitation coffee. Hi > ni _
most frothed at the mouth.
"That Infernal stuff ! " lie crli > d. "Not
much. The very first gulp would cettle me.
I d like to see anybody to try fool mo with
a counterfeit of that sort. "
Ho dld't notice that his wife quietly
smiled. But , strange to say , from that time
on ho grew better. Hla bilious tendency was
greatly lessened. Ho felt llko a new man.
Ono day he mot the doctor.
"Hello , doc , " he cried. "I'm getting hot
ter In spite of you. "
"Given up coffee , have you ? " queried the
smiling doctor.
"Given up coffee ? Not much. Coffee's-all
right. "
A few weeks later he met the man from
whom ho orders his groceries.
"Hullo , " quoth the grocer , "how well you
are looking. "
"Yes , " said the convalescent , "I'm feeling
a great deal better. "
"By the way , " said the grocer , "you seem
to llko that substitute I've been sending
you. "
"What substitute ? "
"Why , that substitute for coffee , " nud he
named ono of the numerous Imitations of the
fragrant berry.
"Never had a cup of it In the house , " said
the bilious man emphatically.
"That's funny , " said the grocer. "I haven't
sold your folks a pound of genuine coffee in
the last three months. "
The bilious man didn't say anything
further , but his thoughts were busy. The
noxl morning ho looked at his cup a lltt !
suspiciously , but he drank It without a
tremor. Perhaps ho fancied ho detected the
difference. Perhaps not. Anyway , his wife
still fondly Imagines he doesn't know of the
deception. 'And ' every tlmo ho drinks a cup
of the decoction ho congratulates himself on
the fact that his health Is so much Im
proved that ho can control his temper.
