THE SUGAR BEET.

The Omaha Republican has for some
time made specially of working up the
beet sugar industry in Nebraska, and
experiments are in progress that will.

Of the question of the possibility of max

dustry in the Northwest. The editor of
the Fargo Farmer has given the matter
attentiOnin view of possibilities in North
Dakota, and in his publication this
month doubts that the Saccharne eIe-
ment will sufficiently develop in that
region, although the beet grows luxuri-
antly there. His theory is that the
sugar part comes in the ripening proc
eSs, and the season is too short for
entire ripene5s. This is not given as a
matter of demonstration. A recent
issue Of the Sugar Beet, a publication
devoted to the subject, gives information
of profitable experiments with the beet
by farmers in California. One raised
154 tons Of beets on ten acres at a cost
Of S5f4, and sold them for 1912, leaving
the handsome margin of 1920, or $42.9S

cases are alleged in which the profits
ranged from $50 to $50 an acre, one

finally put to yea and nay vote. The
vote ran neck and neck, being a tie

WILL GAIN INIOwA.

The fact was noted by one Of the
speakers in the alliance convention that
Iowa has but one Democrat and tariff
reformer out of Its eleven congressman.
This would not be the case ii it were
not for the fact that the members of
congress are elected thirteen months
before they convene. On the vote for
governor last November, the Democrats
carried five of the districts, and in an
other were but eight votes behind, two
others giving the Republicans but 157
and 800 majority. The Democrats labor
under the disadvantage OF having the
bulk of their majority in a single dis
trict, exceeding 5000 last year. They
will almost certainly gain several MEM
bers this year, and are hopeful OF carry
Nc five of the districts. They ought to
be able to do quite as We'll as they did
last fall. The prohibition question may
not enter into the contest so much, but
the work OF tariff reform has been very
effective in that state, and the prestige

ton which will be great aid.

MILITARY BURDENS.

It Is not surprising that socialism
should take strong hold of the popular
life in Germany, so far as it is revolt
from the burden of the vast military
establishment supported by the people.
The eXactiOns of the army i'll the service
of the citizen are as oppressive as the
cost is burdensOme, and neither one
willingly borne, except i'll the stress of
a national eXigency. If all the great
armies Of the old world could be dis
banded, the nations would sec the
breaking light of the era when the en-
ginery Of war would be converted into
the implements OF peaceful industry.
Some figures gathered by parties-per-
haps SOcialists-and published in Ber-
lin, show the cost Of the military estab-
Ilshments Of tue chief nations, and
afford proof that the present situation
cannot endure very long. These sta
tistics cover the past three years
and the expenditures OF Ger
many and five other European
powers with great armies. In the
three years France has expended upon
her army and navy the enormous sum of
SI,219, 6O0,6OO, all in time of peace. In
the same time Russia has paid in army
expenses $3.50, 900, or more each year
than the entire expenditures of the
United States government last year.
Great Britain is credited with an outlay
of Sl9S, 100000 for its armament, and
Germany s194, 100000. AuStrO-Hungary
is next. with SlSS, 100000, and Italy
spent $50, $4,000. The aggregate each
year of these half a dozen powers is
$l,42G,OOo,0OO, which is more than the
valuation of the property of any state
in the Union excepting New York and

debts, which are constantly growing
with most of them. This immense ex-

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 5.-When
the tariff reform convention was called
10 ORDER this morning President Brown
announced that the most important
business of the day wonld be the devils
ing of ways and means for carrying on
the work of the league. The report
of the executive committee showed
that during the year every
congressional district had been
organized. OF the ninety-twO counties
in the state all but two or three have
been thoroughly organized, and seventy
five have township leagues, subordinate
to the county leagues. A report in
favor Of the collection Of statistics re-
garding the effect OF the tariff
upon the farmers was adopted,
and the executive committee was
ordered to carry out the work
on the line proposed. The question OF
raising money for the expenses of the
work and tho dissemination of litera-
ture caused long discussion, but it was
finally decided to assess each county on
a basis Of two cents Tor each vote cast
for cleveland in 1888, the presumption
being that all such voters are tariff re-
formers. On this basis the average will
be about $500 to the county, Or total of
about 5000. Edgar A. Brown, OF In
dianapols, was elected president;
Thomas S. Hudson, of indianapolis,
secretary, and John p. Frenzel, of In
dianapoliS, treasurer. The convention
thin adjourned.

wealth of the country, with no produc-

derstanding that the schemes of rulers
and the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of their houses

of these vast armies than the security

other extreme forms OF popular reyo
will continue while the masses are
made to give so much of life and sub
stance for this terrible incubus. 1t is
matter OF necessity for the powers to go
to war with each other occasionally to
give show of excuse for the armies,
