CONSUMPTION OF SUGAR.

THE following article, from tho Ssn
Frsncisco Chronicle ought TO have u
local interest,":
"rho roview Of tho sugar trade Of
1901, Published by James Dunn, Of elias.
gov, m acknowledged authority on tho
subject, contains some suggestions very
pertinent to the topic of sugar making In
the United States. The paper in question
says, among other things, that the busi-
ness OF importing aud refining In tho At
lantlc states continues to show u rapid
development and progress which throw
all other countries into the shade, For
tho eleven months ending November
10Th there passed through tho four ports
Of New York, Boston, Philadelphia and
Baltimore /, lIl ,l0i tons Of sugar which,
with tho stock OF 1910 tons lofi over
from last year,gives I, lSi,oii tons A. theio-
tai for manipulation up To that date. TAX
ing out the exports OF refined and crude
sugars, II appears that the American de-
mand, as met through the Atlantic sea-
board, was !, io3 3sj tons for the period of
eleven months, and that the total con-
sumption Of the United safe, was l,7l5,.
900 tons, against 100000 tons In 1890 or
an increase of $4,000 tons in eleven
months,
From these figures certain logical de-
duclion, are drawn which will not occur
to tho casual reader. The Dunn circular
says tina, q quantity equal 10 more than
all the crops 81 marketable sugars Of
nemorara, Trinidad, Barbados, Jamaica
and British India put together was ABB

writer, 1t may mean, in conjunction with

draw. Ilis that unless the United States

Not that there should lie any unusual

ditions. with the restrictions and re-
quiremcnts that W ould form part Of

sufficient 10 meet the demand.
These provisions ought not To be
placed In an enabling act, But u II IL
thought necessary, they can be- Inserted
by way Of amendment TO the Teller
bill. However, seeing that the State
Constitution, after 1t Is framed aud
voted ON by the people, must pass the
scrutiny OF Congress and receive the
endorsement OF that body before II
goes TO the President, there appears to
be no necessity for loading the en-.
abling act with what does not belong
10 II, and no reasonable excuse for
opposing the measure simply on the
ground OF the remote possibility Of
danger from polygamy.
The Teller bill puts of actual state
hood for some time. lie not that delay
sufficient II not, let those who think
10, move for an extension Of the time.

THE NEWSPAPER OF TOMORROW.

FosrKR COATES, managing editor Of
the New York MAJ and Impress, In an
address before the Press Clubs at San

startling statements with regard IN

saying this, he never uttered one word

the San Francisco Chronicle can be-
printed on one press. In the making
Of presses the advance has been greater

ing. The modern perfeotlng printing
prcss Ia one Of the marvcls OF lineage.
Mr.. Coates entertains little hope for
the editorial OF the future. Either IL
must go altogether,or else be written by
a specialist. Alrosdy lac thinks the
editorial is becoming bore, and that
the average reader knows more about
the matter than the scribe who penned
1t. Work OF this kind Is cons oicntious-
ly performed, but In most cares II is
perfunctOry. A man canuot write on
a half dozen different topics and give
new light ON all.
Tho coming great man on the news

line speciality will be- the ruls. The
police court reporter will not 10 for
the theological conference, nor will
the dramatic editor be- suited for the
political convention.
Illustration will be the marked fea.
ture OF the coming newspaper, and In
that department great rewards are
awaiting the future scribe. Mr.Costes,
however, did not mention that the
founder Of Illustrated American jour.
nallsm, Mr.. Glees)n, Is either In a
workhouse at present, or died In one a
few weeks ago.
The most important part In the
makeup OF the "coming newspaper"
IA the advertisement. Genius Of the
highest kind will be- required to write
for this department. Already the
work Of composing acceptable adver.

OF Journalistic literature. MIR. Coates
thinks that the richest rewards OF the
future will lie In writing advertise.
