this was seen when the second speaker of the

SpreckeIs on Sugar.

The San Francisco Evening Bull
letin says: Claus Spreckels has
abandoned for the present his
original intention of going to
Washington on sugar matters, and
will now await a summons from
some of the congressional investi-
eating committees. He says he
don't expect to go there on Hawai-
ian politics, but to work for the
continuance of the sugar bounty.
''The beet sugar industry is GER
tainly not yet ready to stand alone"
said he today. ''In few years it
may be, for improved machinery is
all the time lessening the amount
OF labor required. For example,
when we began at jacksonville we
had to plant by hand, and had to
have hundreds of Chinese to hoe
the young beets. My son invented
a planter, and all the planting is
now done by machine. Then we
devised a peculiar cultivator which
does more in two hours than one
hundred Chinese in a day. Now
we are just perfecting machine
for topping"
tits driven through the field when
the beets are ready to be harvested.
Men pull up the beets and throw
them into the machine. It cuts
off the beet tops, throws the beets
into a box and drops the tops on
the ground. Heretofore it has
taken many men to do the work.
81 believe this country ought to
produce all the sugar it uses
somewhere near 100000 tons. 1t
now produces only 100000 tons.
With encouragement of the beet
sugar industry / believe this will
be brought about. We need the
bounty for few years yet. Ger
tainly the cane sugar men of the
South need it. With the bounty
we have only been able since we
started to declare one dividend of
6 per cent.
1.-THE sugar product of the ISL
ands has increased remarkably
since 1876. That year the product
was about 10000 tons. Last year
it was over 10000 tons, or about
100000 worth of sugar"
