Without refinery how is this amount
of cane to be manufactured, and what
shall be made of iti With refinery
centrally located, working with the
proper machinery hap-hazard results
can be avoided, all can be accomodat-
ed and the results will give stimulus
to this industry and profit to all con-
cerned. But to accomplish this UNI
dertaking capital must be invested.
Six thousand dollars would provide
the necessary appliances for manufac-
turing from sixty to seventy-five tons
of sugar besides twelve to fourteen
thousand gallons of the best quality of
syrup. Should this enterprise be ac-
complished, arrangements can be made
by which the work will be conducted
under the instruction and direct su.
pervision of one of the most success
full manufacturers of amber cane SUI
gar in the country. The appliances
will enable the refinery TO place the
dry sugar on the market within week
from the time the cane is ground. Can

to undertake this WORKOUT the shares
at fifty dollars each-cannot enough
interest in this thing be awakened to

OEE of the many instances in which
one branch of American industry is
protected at the expense of another is
the important duty of twenty per cent.
on print paper. The subscription
price of most publications has been
reduced to the lowest possible mimi
mum, and the recent advance in pr
per, sustained as it is by tariff pro-
tective in its nature, must be borne
by the publisher or else he must in.
crease the price of his publication and
thus ask his patrons to pay the iucreas-
ed cost of the article furnished. In
either case one or more industry is
taxed for the protection of another.
Rather than submit to either alterna-
| tive without a protest the publishing
| fraternity of Minnesota will petition
Congress for modification or repeal
| of such tariff. Some of the large city
dailies have already advanced their
price on account of the advance i'll the
| cost of paper.

STATE CHARITABLE AND INDUS

One of the most important measures
now before the legisl tture is propo-
sition to abolish the boards Of trustees

State Board of Charities and Reform
and substitute for the tn rty officers
included therein a board of trustees t.
consist of three members who shall
devote their entire time to the general
management of the States charities.
We heartily endorse this proposition
as being one which if carried out
would result in greater economy in the
management of the several state in
situations of this class while their
usefulness and efficiency woal not in
the least be impaired. We believe

Prominent Republican papers in the
southern portion of the State are COM
planning of the alleged partisanship of
the United States Senate in rejecting
the nomination of II. NJ. kutchin, of
the Fond du Lac Commonwealth, as
collector of internal revenue because
of his alleged extreme partisanship.
That portion of the Republican press
that is denouncing Kutchin's rejection
will do itself credit by dropping the
partisan cry and attributing his de-
feat to the energetic opposition to his
confirmation exhibited by Congress

FRIGHTENED DEMOCRATS.

Our able and newsy contempt
rary, the Nashville American, is
engaged in a labor of love. It is
trying to harmonic the heretofore
discordant elements Of the great
democratic party-that portion of it
to be found in Tennessee. Its
methods are twofold. First, it
administers "taffy" to the Wilson
democrats in liberal chunks. It
tells them that they are not such
wicked fellows after all-that it is
true they bolted, but it was only an
honest difference Of opinion, and
now that by-gones must be bys
cones. Then, again, it frightens
them by holding up the republican
party in general and Horace May
nard in particular, as terrible hob
COLLINS. In order to make it's
bugaboos appear more hideous, the
American keeps in its private closet
the latest pattern of the bloody
shirt, which it waves with great
vigor and persistence. Here is a
specimen:
"The programme OF the republicans
for the four years OF Mr.. Garfield'e
administration includes the admission
OF six OF the present territories into
the union, wit \ twelve republican SEN
ators and twelve republican members
Of the house. 1t includes the partial
Acknowledgement of the southern
states upon the charge of ku klux,
boildozing the negro vote, aud thus
reduce the democratic representation
in the house. To do this IT Is neces-
sary that the republicans shall secure
both the senate and the house. They
have the house. Will they get the
senate? Tennessee says: No."
Now gentlemen democrats, you
have it. It you don't want six
territories admitted as, with twelve
republican senators and twelve rep,
resentatives (how twelve representa-.
tives, doesn't appear, for heavens
sake defeat Maynard. IF you dom
want the representatives Ct the k,
klux klans and the bulldozers dis
turbed, why vote against Maynard
IF you don't want to be disfran
chised,. why vote against Maynard
To convince the editors of tn
American that Maynard will not b
elected to the United States senate
would be like sending a ray O
warm sunshine into dark corne,
1t would buoy them up and max
them happy. With a Democrat

GEN. GARFIELD AND SOU III
ERN REPUBLICANS.

Gently about the probable policy
that General Garfield will persue
towards the southern republicans,
after his inauguration as president.
The discussion arose upon an alleged
expression from Gov. Foster, which
was criticised by Hon. A. A. Free
man, in a letter originally pub,
lished in the New York Tribune.
We endorse what Mr.. Freeman
said in reply to Gov. Foster, that is
if the governor made the remarks
attributed to him. We doubt if he
ever said what he was made to ap-
pear as having said, but if he did,
he expressed only his individual
opinion and nothing more,
We have no fear whatever that as
president Of the United States
General Garfield will not deal justly
with all parties and all sections, in
Guiding the south and the southern
republicans. We know him to be
sincere republican, devoted to the
principles and policy of the party
that has elected him president. We
believe he will do all that is proper
and reasonable to sustain and
strengthen the republican party.
That he will see the necessity of
strengthing the republican party in
the southern states we can not
doubt. That he will do this by en-
couraging the republicans who re-
side in the south we think certain.
That he will attempt to do this by
appointing to important offices men
who are not qualified to discharge
the duties imposed upon them to
the satisfaction of the country,
merely because they are southern
republicans, no one need expect
He is too wise, and has too much
experience ia public affairs to com,
NIT himself to any such an alb
surdity.
There are men at the north anc
in the south, who affect to believe
that all the intelligence and virtue
to be found in the south is in tn,
democratic party, but General Gar.
field knows this to be untrue. HI
knows something about southern re
: publicans. He served in the uniol
army with southern men, and b
/ has served in congress with south
ern republicans. He has knowl
: edge of men, and he will use hi
, best judgment in the selection o
his subordinates without regard t.
, section or locality. He will no
, ignore the south, and he will not g
, outside of his party in making i'm
! portant appointments to Office, an.
. more than General Grant did
Some southern republican is almos
certain to get position in the cab
met, or if it should be otherwise
Z there will be good reason for it
, We know of no good reason tina
can be given, hence we have n
: fears to express.
