BEET SUGAR.

The Sugar Beet publishes some
interesting information about the
cultivation of beets for sugar in
Germany and Austria, from which
we extract the following:
1t is evident that the manufac-
turer can, under these circumstances,
dispose of greater capital, and
ameliorate the farming condition of
the estate. The cost of manufacture
ing sugar in Austria Hungary is very
low, labor may be had in abundance,
and the wages are small. A curious
fact IS that Notwithstanding the sue
cess Of the sugar industry in the
country, the value of lands is less
than IN France or Germany. In b.
hernia an acre of ground suitable for
beet cultivation is worth $3.50, and
only $40 in Hungary. Women and
children work in the fields for eight
to fourteen cents per day, while the
hands at the factory receive twenty
four to thirtytwo cents.
On model Bohemian farm the
cost of working land cultivated in
beets was $58 40 per acre; this in
cludes working of the soil, chemical
fertilizer (saltpeter), beet seed, thin
ming out, interest of capital, etc.
The leaves and their value are not
considere3-the beets thus cost So 20
per ton Including the interest on
value of land).
The cost of manufacturing sugar
at these factories was So 40 per ton
of roots worked, and in some special
cases 81 80 when 100 pounds sugar
were extracted from 900 pounds
beets. The cost per pound would
be about two cents. Sugar for the
home consumption is made in fifty
six factories, of which eleven are
refneries; of the forty-fve remain
ing, about one-half refine the sugar
made in the factory and the other
half refine sugar purchased from
outside factories.
Of late years the expectation of
refined sugar from Austria has be-
come very important. Hamburg, as
shipping center, appears to offer
many advantages. Trieste is also
one of the important shipping ports. |
1t must be said respecting the latter
that the French have of late years
offered considerable competition
from Marseilles.

ABOUT JURIES.
members.

The following from an American
paper, gives a few valuable pointers
to the Hawaiian judiciary, regard
ing rulings in cases where it is diff
cult to 1mpanel jury. The same
or similar difficulties which have
been SO vexatious and impeding on
these islands, prevail also in the
United States; and Judge McCon-
nell's action, as expressed in his re-
marks, conveys a lesson that might
be considered with advantage even
now, as sooner or later his course
will probably have to be adopted in
similar cases coming before Ha-
waiian courts:
'On September 10th Judge McCon-
nell's remarks to the lawyers in the
Chicago Cronin murder case, after
the talesmen had been peremptorily
excused, were as follows: I want
to say word to the gentlemen on
both sides in reference to this line of
challenge. AS I understand law
and think l have taken it from
very high authority and from rules
of practice well approved-ln the
early impaneling of a jury in
case which has been very much dis
cussed and very much published in
the newspapers as this has, and con
corning which the sheriffs and sum-
moning officers have gone to nearly
all parts of the country and sum-
mon ed nearly all classes and con-
ditions of society, if it becomes ap-
parent that an ideal or a perfect jury
cannot be secured-that is, a jury
which has not formed any impress
sions upon the matter-then the
court must take the next best jury it
can get, SO long as it is legal jury.
So, while great liberality will be
permitted, such as this court has
permitted in this case, in the early
impaneling of the jury, necessar-
lily, as this court becomes convinced
that it cannot be so liberal, that if it
were to continue its course no jury
could be impaneled, that liberality
must be limited. So, whatever
might be the ordinary rules of law
which govern the impaneling of
jury in an ordinary case, they must
bend to the exigencies of case of
more public concern, otherwise the
result would necessarily follow that,
in certain cases, no jury could be
impaneled.
Now, I mean to say by that, that
where I find that those opinions are
simply founded on newspaper read
ing, and where men come here of
whose intelligence and character the
court is obliged to come to the con-
clusion that from what they say they
can fairly and impartially try the case
On the law and evidence, I shall not
be so liberal as I have been. We
have already consumed nine days in
endeavoring to impanel a jury in
his case"
