MILLIONS IN CORN STALKS.
Valuable Use for What is Almost
Waste Product.
A valuable use of what Is now al-
most a waste product has been sug-
gested by Prof. H. \V. Wiley of the
Department of Agriculture. Ho be-
lieves that the stalks of sweet corn
might be made to yield sugar of the
best quality. They contain much
more sugar than those of the com-
mon field corn, and tlie sugar con-
tent Is at its maximum at the time
when tlie ears are pulled. Sugar, of
course, is readily convertible into
alcohol, and inasmuch as each I •
pounds ol stalks will yield six and a
half pounds of absolute alcohol, it is
easily seen what a good thing the
ignorant agriculturist has been al-
lowing to go to waste. Say that one
acre will yield from ten to twelve
tons of grain stalks, or about 2<>,-
000 pounds, and you have a quan-
tity of raw material which will
produce 1,300 pounds of absolute
alcohol, or 21tJ gallons. Alcohol at
the present time is worth 40c a gal-
lon. Qround in a wet condition
and dried, cornstalks may be kept
indefinitely, and are ready at any
time for conversion into alcohol
Prof. Wiley says that t,h'' alcohol
rl\ab!e fr...A theC fifnstalks that nov'
go to waste In this country would
not only drive all the machinery ot
our factories, but would furnish the
requisite power for all our railroads
and steamboats, run all of our au-
tomobiles, heat and illuminate all of
our houses and light the streets in
every city in the Union.—Leslie's
Weekly.
THE VIEWS OF IIRVAN.
FEAR A CALAMITY.
Urool.ljn Itridge ttelng Worked to
Its Very Limit.
New York, Nov. 23.—Recontmen-
lutlons made by thes tate railroad
commission designed to relieve
somewhat the Brooklyn bridge crush
found n startling echo yesterday
when President Col don wood of th
Brooklyn Transit company declared
(hat the bridge was being worke'
!o Its very limit and that his com pa
ij lived In expectation of a grei
calamity.
Siijs No Man i 'an Serve People and
Corporations.
"Would you, Mr. Bryan, deny to
a prominent railroad attorney, for
example, the right to serve his
country in congress or in senate?"
is the sense of a question recently
put. to the democratic leader. This
man may be distinguished for his
capacity as a lawyer and for his pro-
bity as a citizen. Why should he.
because of the chance that placed
him in the legal profession as ihe
respected representative of a great
railroad, be deprived of the United
States senate if the people of his
state so elected?"
"If the people of the state elect-
ed," Mr. Bryan replied, " he would,
of course, have his seat but. the peo
'>le of his state should not so elect.
My contention is, and 1 am by no
means alone in this, that does not
exist a man who can serve two mas-
ters; the man who is employed by
a great railroad company to assist
in controlling congressional legisla-
tion can not serve his stale while
sittliiK as a member of the national
legislature he fails of duty
m hit) railroad corporation."
"But isn't some cjjeeptio'-,
—isrt'! It possible for n man to pre-
serve a perfectly honest attitude?"
"The ma., who says that he can
thus serve bosses, the public and
the franchise seeking corporation,
is one of two things—he is either
ronsumed with vanity or knowingly
dishonest. There is no other an-
swer."
This Is Brynn'a position. It is I
be one of his campaign cries for
100$, rivaling the trust u:id railroad
!«e ten for pro-emint lwe. He is al-
ready finding support among the
people and the politicians. He feels
lhat the issue is one of great possi-
bilities, and he will urge it in all of
lils public and private talks for ;he
next two years.-—St. Louis Repub-
