ALREADY more than half the
worlds sugar is estimated to come
from the European beet root Sci
ence, chemistry and mechanical
skill have combined to transfer the
habitat of a prime necessity of life
from the tropics, where only it was
supposed it could be produced, into
the northern ATTITUDES. California
is now successfully cultivating the
sugar-beet, and it has been demon
strated that Nevada soil and eli
mate is admirably adapted to the
cultivation of this root. A beet
sugar factory established on some
of the rivers in Nevada, in close
proximity to an agricultural count
ry, is one of the establishments that
our State should have at as early a
date as possible. 1t would be the
means of putting under cultivation
much more land, and directly and
indirectly giving employment to a
large number of laborers.

GHDDINESS OF WASHINGTON
SOCIETY.

The giddiness of society in Wash
ington can be inferred, says San
Francisco exchange, from the report,
if true, that young ladies of that
city feel much put out because the
Chinese Minister has determined to
restrict the social intercourses of
the members of the Chinese lega-
ton. It is almost unthinkable in
this portion of the United States
how any young lady, no matter to
what station she belongs, could toll
crate the attentions of SO repulsive
a semi-barbarian as the Chinese
usually is. But there are other
considerations beyond those of a
mere personal nature. When they
are taken into account, it will APP
pear that the Chinese Minister is
more sensible than the parents or
guardians who have heretofore per-
mitted such intercourse. If it is
not already known in Washington,
it ought to be promulgated there
without much more delay, that the
Chinese are polygamists. If the
.dallyings with the almon-eyed Ce-
lestials should have the usual re-
suit, the American wife, on the re-
turn to China, will find herself re-
.duced to the level of the concubine.
The real marriage of Chinese is
usually family affair, and is ar
ranged when the parties to it are
infants. In the degraded position
to which the American wife is pref
ty sure to find herself in China,
she may be sold, whenever her lord
and master tires of her, or feels in
need of ready cash. The laws of
China permit and enforce transac-
tons of this nature. If the Chi
nese husband should die the Amer
lean .concubine would become the
slave of his surviving parents or
parent. This cannot be said to be
a very inviting prospect for the
young ladies who have been carry
ing on hirtations with the members
of the Chinese legation. The pur-
chase of European husbands with
handle to their names is quite poor
enough business. But Chinese in
termarrying is perhaps the most
frightful fate that possibly could
-befall a white woman, no matter
whether the marriage relations are
maintained in this country or Chi

NAGLE has been released by the
decision of the U. S. Circuit Court.
Following is about the substance of
Judge Sawyer's decision: "After
mature consideration we have
reached the conclusion that the
homicide in question was commit
ted by the petitioner while acting
in the discharge of duty imposed
by the Constitution and laws of the
United States. Nagle was on the
scene of action, facing party
making a murderous assault, know
ing by personal experience his
physical powers and desperate char
acter, and by general reputation his
readiness to use them, and his an
CRY murderous threats, he was the
party to determine when the SUI
preme moment for action had come.
In our judgment he acted under the
trying circumstances surrounding
him in good faith, and with consum-
mate courage, judgment and discre-
ton. The homicide was, in our
opinion, clearly justifable in law,
and in a forum of sound, practical
common sense commendable."

TIE principal changes in the new marriage law ofthis territory are as follows; The certificate of marriage must be filed in the office of the clerk of the Probate Court instead of the county clerk, as heretofore; no li- ceEse is required, but the male con tracing party must be 2i years of age and the female Is years, before the ceremony can legally be perform ed without the parents or guardians consent. A yiolrtion of any of the provisions of the law subjects the of fender to a fine of not less than $50 nor more than $3oG; or imprisonment for not less than one month nor more than six months.

FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1889.

TIE Solomonville Bulletin seeming to rely for defense of the printing steal upon a falsehood to the effect that Judge Fitzgerald is financially interested in TIE CLARION, and that he furnishes matter for its editorial columns, we feel compelled to make the statement that he is not nor has he at any time contributed, nor is he financially interested, in the new CLARION; neither has he contributed in any manner one line to it's editori- al columns We do not say this in disparagement of the Judge, who. while he had the management of the old Clarion, published one of the most widely known and largely quoted papers in the territory. We say this for his own protection, that he may not be compelled to shoulder the mis- takes of management or the lack oi. ability of its present editor and man. ager. While ill the. course of long political career in this county he has made many enemies, some ofwhom W c count among our friends, We take pride in announcing that ss far as we are concerned we believe that we have that proper feeling of respect and af- lection for him who personally prov ed good employer and true friend.

Silver Sense.

Ex-Senator Patterson, of Virginia
 says: Nothing las kept the price ot
 wheat and other products from falling even lower than they have, except the coinage act of the United States con- polling the coinage of not less than
 S2,G00.O00 of legal tender standard silver dollars per month. We could qUadruple our silver circulation and still itwould be at par with gold. This is readily proven by comparison with France, which, with only about three tifths of the population of the United States, has about SSOO,000.O00 of silver which floats without difficulty at par. The infamous and detes able conspir ators who demonetized silver in 1873 did their fatal work five minutes be- fore midnight on the eve of the ad- joIrnment of Congress, and the fact was not known to more than dozen IlCN3DCrS or CltuCT mousse uDtiI SOnlC two months afterward. The great difficulty has been that every federal administration, both Republican and Democratic, has been under the with ering ban of Wall street and Lombard street. Mon0metallism is the Gib- raltar of capital. By it the rich are made richer and the poor poorer. The only check to its ruinous course hes been the act compelling the coinage of not less than $2,OO0,O0O of silver dollars per month, the beneficial influ- ence Of which is now being felt. and as the volume of money is steadily in creased, so the prices will rise, espec- ially for wheat and corn. For fifteen years the farmers have borne the brunt of the most terrific deprecia- ton of prices, caused by the demoni- tization act of Germany and the United States.

TIE board of supervisors have cer- tainly subsidized the Bulletin heavily enough for that company to hire an editor of its organ who is no: liable to suffer concussion of ti'e brain every time he sits down in harll-bottom chair. The defense made by that worthy in tc-day's issue of the Btl- letin is certainly about as weak as could have been attempted. Is the fact that the preceding Board of Su- pervisOrs were compelled, without opposition. to pay little more for their printing any reason why. with opposition created, the present board should rot subserve the best interests of the taxpayers and save the county some $!2O0 or $500 per year: Is the Lid of the Bulletin rCasCrable' : one in view of tie fact that it is much higher than paid any other paper in the territory and when an other bId was in offering to do the printing for 1o0 per cent less: Is it any reason why inc board Of super vis0rs should Subsidizc their crcan 10 the extent of at least $lC0rer month, and give it to paper not three months old in preference to cne seven years: Are the property interests of SolomOnviiie any nore valuable than those of Clifton al.d MoreGci: Turn to the tax roll and ooI4Fute the diff ference in taxes paid. And finally, is it an argument in defense of the printing steal for the editor of the Bulletin to try and detract from the ability e the present editor of THE CLARION or to make personal attacks upon its former proprietor. Judge Fitzgerald! We leave the answe.
