SUGAR IN
By PROFESSOR E. w. HlLGARp, State
University.
From the Sugar Cane.)

The late rise in the prices of sugars has
once more directed public attention strong
ly 10 the possibilities of producing at home
this important article, whose increasing
consumption shows that it is more and
more taking the position Of an article OF
TODD instead of that of q mere condiment.
The movement toward the Iarge-scaIe
cuItui6 Of sorghum for this purpose at the
East is significant of an intention to
become independent, if possible, Of the
frequent ADD violent fluctuations in the
price Of q prime necessary of lie, brought
about partly by speculative operations,
partly by the political troubles to which
several ofthe sugar cane growing countries
are periodically subject.
In California the matter Of sugar pro-
duc.ion was taken in hand at an early
period aud considering the climates at
command within the State, it is perhaps
IL little strange that the FIRST thought and
attempt should nave been in the direction
Ut the manufacture of beet sugar instead
Of the cultivation of sugar cane.
That, in general, sugar beets of unusu-
ally high quality can be successfully
grown III many regions of California, has
now been sufficiently proved by the tests
made up to this time, as well as 10y the
practical working Of the manu- featuring
establishments that have been managed
with u reasonable degree of business tact
and technical skill. That the probable
8production OF beet sugar dependso on a great
nmany conditions besides that of the quality
OF the raw material, is too we'll known 10
need discussion. The beets will not bear
transportation to any distance, and In
order to render them available for sugar.
lnaking, their successful growing must,
within a limited area, be coupled with
heap fuel, good and abundant water sup
kly and reasonably cheap and reliable
xIhbour.
5 1t has often been attempted to free this
Industry from some. of these restraints, by
Rendering the beets transportable and
capable of being kept all the year, by
drying. But to do this By artificial heat
is so costly an operation, that 1t can be
made 70 pay only under peculiar circum-
stances hence, as a matter OF fact, this
se&pedient has been little resor ted to.
M34 liz III hti tlIoO Va AN
<pf California, however, seems to offer ex.
|ceptIoDGl facilities In this direction /; for
swhere raisins Can be made successfully.
Cut beets can be dried without artificial
heat. So far no .aisin-making country
has attempted the beet sugar manufacture;
hence the conditions offered here are
entirely new.
] The experiments made in beet-drying in
che open air in Southern California during
the past season have demonstrated that
beets cut crosswise into slices half an
inch thick. can be reduced to about one
nth Of their original weight in the course
of forty hours, The resulting material for
sugar manufacture, containing from SO
to "a per cent. of sugar, will of course
keep indefinitely, and bear transportation
to any, reasonable distance. Moreover,

production Of sugar from cane, therefore,
requires ouly sery)simplo appliances, such
as can be procured at a moderate cost by
any large grower, and managed by intel
ligent overseets, after n little experience.

The mining outlook for Silver Reef

next month will be in the neighbour

has been done the past week on the

Hereafter, on dark nights, there will
perhaps be less blasting done by pc

OF falling over those rocks and peel

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Delivered by Judge Hunter Con-
corning the o. 2. &. &. Co.

Judge Hunter yesterday made 6
very important decision in the case
of Helen Bankhead against the
Union Pacific Company, the suit
being for the recovery of damages
for stock killed by the trains OF the
company. The suit was brought
under the statutes of the territory,
the section being incorporated in the
railroad act. and reads as follows:
Section 35.-It shall be the duty of
any company operating lines OF rail-
road in this territory to make and
maiDtain a good and sufficient fence
On either or both sides of their entire
railroad. where the lines run through
lands which are now or may here
after be enclosed or improved; and in
case they 90 not make and maintain
such fence, along their entire line, If
their engines or cars shall kill, MAIN
or destroy any cattle or domestic
animals, they shall pay the owner
thereof fair market price for the
same, unless said owners shall be
proven negligent or ct fault.
1t was urged by P. L. Williams,
Esq, of the defense, that the pro-
visions OF this act could rot be ap-
piled to the Union Pacific, as its
charter was derived from the national
government; but he admitted its force
as regards local roads. Judge Hunter
held the same ground, maintaining
that the road in question could not be
held to the provisions of any law
passed by local government, such
as this territory. In reply to the
motion for a non-3uit, based on this
decision, E. D. Hoge, Esq, COUNSEL
for the plaintiff, stated tle could
not but confess that he was thunder
struck at the ruling of the court, and
argued that, carried to its extent, the
decision meant that this territory
could not assess a tax on G dollars
worth of property belonging TO Ioad
whose charter had been derived from
Congress. The motion for a nom
suit was granted, the plaintiff except
ing. 1t is possible the matter will go
to the Supreme Court of the Terri
tory bat as it now stands,
The ruling OF Judge Hunter prevents
the possibility Of damages ever being
received from companies not Of local
foI the destruction Of prop
srty or cattle, no matter how negli- |
gent the employees of the real may |
be, unless the charter OF the company |
makes provisions for such emergeL-
lies.

Bad Eggs-LOOk Ont.

The recent robberies in Ogden and
this city prove the existence here Of
crack thieves, and men whose pro-
fession is burglary and highway rob-
berry. OF these new importations
from the east and west, three have
been captured, and are now in Jail;
but there still remains. q gang of
from twelve to fifteen. For several
nights past attempts have been
made to gain access to hou les in
different parts of the city, so far,
however, unsuccessfully. They sre
easily detected, and an observer can
see them eyeiBg parties as they pass
We mention this fact merely to warn
people to be on their guard and give
these characters a warm receptions.
It will be surprising, indeed, if We dc
not hear OF more robberies, or thai
the gsrroter is at work. These fel
lows will live, and generally live well
and someone will be forced to support
them. It will be equally surprising
in the event that these prowling;
around houses are continued, if vs.
do not hear of someone being shot
Their business means desperate
chances and blood, and they ar
likely 10 get blood.

Another Row.

Last evening a soldier ran excitedly
along First South street, on the side
walk opposite the Theatre, followed
by another soldier and a civilian. The
pursued ran into a little store, dropped
on his knees, and said to the civilian:
"For Gods sske, don't murder me. /"
Just then the other soldier stepped
in, and the civilian struck him In
the face, and a general melee eneued,
which resulted in the arrest OF all the
parties, and their l0dging in jail. 1t
appears that they had been in the
Delta Saloon, had got into some diff
Guilty, and the soldier that did the
running had broken a window in the
saloon, as we'll as one in an adjoining
saloon, when he got out; the damage
being done by yock. The civilian
claims that the soldier struck him
first, and that ne naturally retaliated,
but the whole matter will be solved
before Judge Piper this morning.

as the absence of these in the preyi-
GUS performances of this troupe was
the only objection expressed, it will
now be met and overcome, and those
that desired go much to hear him
perform sirs we'll known to all will
have an opportunity. II Herr
Wilhelmj would crafty his audience
unexpectedly, he would perform as
an encore, which of course he will be
called to give, the beautiful "Hun'
garian Waltzes.'' which at once
struck and captivated the audience
on the night of his first appearance
liz will also be observed that Mr..

and that 5iguors Salvotti will sinl

They do me, but my surprise is thai
the amount is so small. Most of the

the taxes at one-iourth, or % per
cent. One-iourth OF 1892, 600 is

$I48, 600 leaves $64. 0O0, but If we
allow for uncollected taxes 10 per
cent. of the assessment roll, it will be
in round numbers $50, coo, or So, 900
less than the $4,000, showing that
Notwithstanding cur poverty, our
taxes are raid as closely as the taxes
of our more WeslIhy neighbors.
And further, mere glance at the
reports and at this computation will
show that many items are included
which are not properly charges for
assessing, collecting, retaining and
the revenue. In some OF
the reports this class of item could
not be separated from others. When
this occurred took them all in, which
swelIed these sums very considerably;
| presume in all not less than $40, 900.
[ have heard many complaints about
the non-payment of taxes and the
neglect of the collectors, and perhaps
not without cause; yet 1 find no
greater delinquency here than in the
states. Yours truly.
