Beet Sugar Industry in Mime

The beet sugar industry is being
successfully agitated for Minnesota.
1t was given out this week that Henry
T. Oxnard, proprietor of the plant at
Grand Island, Neb., is contemplating
the establishment of a factory in Min
nesota. Mankato is the first place to
be inspected. Mr.. Oxnard was in
Washington last week, and to the
officials of the agricultural department
he said that he intended to establish
several branches in the beet sugar
belt. He asked for the results of the
analysis of, sugar beets fromMinnesota
and studied the beet sugar raising of
the western part of this state. He left
samples of the sugar he had just be-
gun to make in Nebraska. His
factory there can turn out thirty tons
a day. He had a long interview with
Prof. Wiley, the government chemist,
who has recently been examining
Minnesota sugar beets. From some
recent tests l have made" Prof. Wiley
said, "Minneasota takes good rank in
the production of sugar beets, especi-
ally the southern half of the state"
He then gave results to twelves
analyses of beets grown this year III
Southern Minnesota towns. He chose
the twelve at random. They showed
1915 per cent, 1913 per cent, 11.3 per
cent, 1876 per cent, 9.5 per cent, 1O.5
per cent, 90 per cent, 80 per cent,
1873 per cent, 1877 per cent, 1928 per
cent and 8 per cent of sugar. Four of
these are exceptionally good, four are
trife above the average and four are
not more than average.

What the Census Shows.

We have received from the super
intendent of the census, Robert T.
Porter, census bulletin No. IL, from
which we learn that Minnesota in
creased 78 per. cent between 1870 and
1880 O,and6 81 per cent between 1880 and
1890,the numerical increase being over
half a million in the past decade. The
state census, taken in 1886, shows
the bulk of this increase occurred be-
tween 1880 and 1886. The numeri-
cal increase during the first five years
was 337,025, and the rate of increase
43 per cent, while during the last half
of the decade the numerical increase
was 82,219, and therate of increase
1863 per cent.

Marshal Field, of Chicago, one OF
the greatest wholesale dry goods
merchants in America, says: Ninety
days from now nobody will know
that new tariff has been enacted,
and in regard to reports that our
house is advancing goods it is a mis-
take" Mr.. Field being a good Dem
ocrat, it is possible if he had come
out before election and declared the
Mckinley bill '.all right" it might
have had the effect to change the
result in Illinois. However, let us
hope that what Mr.. Field says, that
we will know nothing about that a
new tariff has been enacted in three
months.

What Mckinley Says.

j Major Mckinley, ON being inter,
lvieNBd by a reporter a few days since
| in relation to the result or the recent
election, said:
am well satisfied with the result
in my districts. I gained $500 votes
during the campaign which lasted but
three weeks. That was even more
than I had any right to expect. 1t is
certainly gratifying to me-"
"What do you think of the result in
the state?'' was asked.
''The Republican victory on the
state ticket was splendid. The un-
fairness of the gerrymander was man
ifested most clearly by the recent
election. The Republicans carried
the state by a popular majority of
over 10000, while the Democrats Sc
cured two-thirds of the representatives
in congress and the Republicans one
third. This shows the effect of the
gerrymander very clearly"
Has the cause of protection suffered
any by the recent Democratic victories
throughout the country?"
sProtection is stronger today than
it ever was, and it will continue to
grow in favor. The tariff bill, which
was made the issue dnring the cam
paign, was but three and one-half
weeks old when the election occurred,
and many of its provisions have not
yet gone into effect. The bill was
misunderstood and shamefully mis-
represeEnd Isssszsster was done by
the importers, many of whom are not
citizens of the United States, and are
free traders"
what will be the future of the
bill?"
Il am sure it will win in the end.
All great measures have met with
temporary defeat. The emancipation
of slaves and the passages of the 18th
and 18th amendments to the constitu-
tion may be pointed to as examples.
The same issue will come to the front
in 1892, and it will then be better
understood. Our defeat this year is
not greater than it was in 1882, two
years after Garfield was elected. The
Republicans have had majority in
the house of representatives but twice
since 1875. In this congress we have
rs members from the South, while in
the next there will be but two or three. |
We have little to fear in the future if
we have free ballot and fair count"

1t takes the American people to
Jump onto the authors of tariff laws
The Morrison horizontal reduction
bill resulted in the defeat of its sup
porters; the Mills bill was voted a
failure, and the opposition carried the
country; now Maj. Mckinley digs his
own grave, and accommodates the
whole party in it, by the creation OF
another tariff law. Oh, those tariff
laws are dangerous things to monkey
with.-Little Falls Transcript.
Just SO, brother Fuller. We have
been a high protective tariff man ever
since we were old enough to under
stand anything about tie effect of a
tariff; but we now have about come to
the conclusion that, notwithstanding
we are in principle opposed to free
trade, we would like to see it tried for
a few years, in order to show to the
people of the country, especially the
farmers, mechanics and laboring men
generally the effects of it On the busi-
ness of the country. And further, it
would show conclusively what articles
should come into this country free,
and what articles need protection. In
no other way can it be 80 truly shown.
Yes, let politicians quit amonkeying
with the tariff say we. Let us take
down the bars, demolish the protec-
tive barrier and open our markets to
the admission of goods from every
nation on the globe. Then we shall
see whether American laborers can
compete with the laborers of Eng
land, France and Germany, as well as
with the hordes of China and India.
Yes, give us free trade, and quit "mon-
keying with the tariff

A Straight Democrat.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat: A re-
miniscence' Of President Cleveland's
visit to ST. Louis is related by one
who was there. 1t is more or less
timely just now. The President and
his party visited the exposition. They
sat in a box while the band played
and the people surged. The temper
ature was high. Taking advantage
of a lull in the ovation, Governor
Francis-he was then Mayor Francis
leaned over and said to the Presi-
dent, in an undertone:
'Mr. President, if you will step out
with me minute we can find some
thing to drink"
Mr.. Cleveland arose with alacrity
His throat was parched. The ever
present Lamont also arose. The Pre-
sident and his private secretary, escor-
ted by Mr.. Francis, Colonel Grifi
Prather and one other gentleman
withdrew from the box and went to a
room adjoining the stage. AS the
door closed behind the party, Mr..
Francis, with wave of his hand in
the direction of the buffet, said:
"Mr. President, what brand of wine
will you trys I believe we have al
most everything here.'
"Wine!o CALCULATED Mr. Cleveland,
give me straigllf glft t whisky.
MT. Francis looked at Colonel
"Griff'' Prather, and Colonel "Grifff'
turned rosy. There was wine by the
basket, but not a drop of Old Bourbon
in the buffet. The attendant hurried
downstairs as fast as he could and
came back with five small glasses,
each of them about one-third full
the regulation twenty-fve-cent drink.
The waiter was placed ON the table.
There was a glass for each member
of the party. The President stepped
forward, took one glass in his right
hand AID another in his left hand.
He poured the whiskey from the left
hand glass into the right-hand glass,
remarking as he did SO:
s'Dan doesn't drink, gentlemen"
and then the glass was emptied.
Colonel Prather has been heard to say
more than once since then that it was
the only time in his life when his
presence of mind failed him.
The moral of the story, if it has any
moral, is that American Presidents
are usually men of simple tastes.
