commerce held an adjourned meeting
last evening for the purpose OF receiv-
ing the report of the committees ap-
pointed to investigate the outlook for
raising the money for the midwinter fair

given out by those present. It was I'm

sight could be secured for Southern

SUGAR BEET FACTORIES.
The sugar beet business was brought
up by B. G. Balcomb. He said that he
had been convinced that no more sugar
factories would be built till the tariff
question is settled. He thought 1t
would be we'll for the people OF this vi
cinity to put themselves in communi-
cation with the Chino beoplo and ascer-
tain what arrangements can be made
with them to furnish beets from this
locality on the same principle as they
did from Anaheim this season.
Mr.. Spurgeon thought that the people
around Santa Ana should make tests OF
their lands in sugar beet growing, and
that the seed would be furnished by
Mr.. Gird of Chino. Mr.. Spurgeon said
| ho 81 Mi cd and
that he learned that they were making
no further outside contracts for beets.
