THE SUGAR BEET QUESTION.

The people of Nebraska are greatly
interested in the manufacture of beet
sugar. They have experimental with
it for number of years, until now it
is no longer an experiment, but has
passed into the successful manufac-
turing features of that state. The
report now comes from Omaha that
one of the commercial bodies Of that
city has made arrangements with
Count Iobenskl. VINO represents a Pc
fish emigration society, to establish
sugar beet factory at Omaha, the bus
mess men of that city agreeing to
take 100000 worth of the capital
stock. 1t is also said the count has
secured large farm near Dawson, N.
D., for the same purpose. The count
visited the twin cities last summer
and looked over Minnesota a little
with a view of making some arrange
ments for the location of factory,
but nothing came from the visit.
The people of Nebraska are better
acquainted with the subject, and had
a better idea of the advantages to be
gained therefrOm than the people of
Minnesota, which goes far to account
for the success in locating factory at
Omaha. Then the change which is
being made in the tariff naturally
makes capitalists little chary about
venturing into a business they know
little or nothing about. But the To-
caUion of a factory at Omaha will be
a great gain for the beet sugar inter
est of the west and northwest. 1t
will serve to make the business that
much better known to the public, and
it's successful operation will make it
that much easier to establish others.
Southern Minnesota is we'll adapted
for the culture of beets rich in sugar
qualities, and their raising and manu-
facuure would prove profitable ad-
ditiOnal feature to our farming COM
munity. The successful operation of
the Nebraska factories will doubtless
hasten the lOcat ion of similar inStitu-
tiOpS in this state.
The Oxnard factory at Grand Island,
Neb., produced !, 300 600 pounds of su-
gar during the past season, and the
factory at Norfolk had produced 3, 4OO,
600 pounds the first of December, and
expects to continue operations until
about the first of February.

MANUFACTURE 1T AT TOME.

The Minnea polls Tribune advocates
the manufacture of Minnesota iron
ore into pig iron at home and shipping
the latter east instead of the ore. 1t
says that by doing this the state would
reap ten-fold more from It's iron re-
sources than it does under the system
of shipping the ore. The idea is a
good one to put into practice. There
ought to be- no reason why the ore can
not be manufactured into pig iron,
and to large extent the manufacture
ing process carried still further, and
much of the pig iron transformed In
to the finished products for the trade.
Says the Tribune:
Did Minnesota manufacture instead
of ship it's ore to other ports, even the
miners and mine owners would be
great gamers, for the reason that
hundreds of thousands of tons of ore
that are not now considered high
grade enough to ship hundreds of miles
to Cleveland, could be utilized to good
advantage in furnaces at home. Ac-
cOrding to the present regime. we
ship away the best ore and throw
away the rest. We send the cream of
our mines out of the state, and dump
good second-rate ore into the waste
heaps. This is a system Of waste
which should be arrested if it is pos
sible and practicable.
1t then shows that coal can be ship
ped west for the purpose of manufac-
turing the ore. for less than One-half
the cost of shipping ore to the east,
. and besides this saving the west would
profit by the increased amount Of la
Dor that would be employed here. 1t
quotes from the Iron Trade ReDieaU,
showing that pig iron can be manu-
featured 81 per ton cheaper at Mar
quette than in Chicago, and it can be
manufactured as cheaply in Duluth as
in Marquette. Besides this, the Lake
Superior furnace can get it's ore from
ST to So per ton cheaper than the Chi
cagO or Pittsburg furnace.
Such move would be of vast i'm.
pOrtance to the northwest, for it would
lead to the building up of great indus
tries in the line of iron and steel,
which would also attract other indus
tries in turn. These would attract
vast army of employers and afford a
most substantial market for the farm
ers of the northwest. The Tribune
has struck the right chord, and the
scheme is one that should have the
hearty cooperation of the northwest.

NO SUNDAY NAIL.

Beginning Sunday, the Sunday day
trains on the Omaha road will be
taken off. This means that no mail
will arrive from st. Paul on Sundays,
and the Sunday papers will get here
Monday. There is no doubt but that
this change will cause great dissatis-
faction along the entire line, aud it is
to be hoped THAI the company will
reconsider it's determination.
Ii the order is carried out, a Sunday

Hon. Richard Crokcr the great Democratic political leader of New York, when passing through Yuma the other day, asked the writer; Do your raise any alfalfa here. When told that we raise from five to seven crops a year. and that each crop yields from one to two tons per acre, he said: Here is where l want to bring my horses. With your even climate and such pasturage and crops of hay, it Is clear to any breeder ofhorses, thatyou can raise better class Of trotters, roadsters and racers, than you can m Il cold. wet. and changeable climate, where stock like men are subject to so many variatoas in the temperature, and so liable to lung and throat troub- les. There k no other reason. for the fact that the breeding farms of the Pacific coast, are turning out better stock than ge can raise in the east. Your Arizona climate is better than that of the foggy and cloudy region ot the coast. | shall return to Yuma and look over the chances of getting myself a 10000 acre stock farm, upon wAich can place my best breeders
 The testimony of such horscman IS valuable, as it shows that the reSourc- es of Yuma are well nigh bonndleSs. It is vet March, and our alfalfa in many fields is ready to cut for hay.

THE PERALrA GRANT.

EDITOR TIE OASIS: In answer to numerous questions respecting the status of the various private inter- ests within the bounds of the BarOny of Arizona, or so-called ''Peralta Grant" will state that each and ey- cry interest acquired by settlement, devc lopment or location made in good faith has ample protection under the law.
 The act of Congress approved March 3d, 1890, Sec. l4, provides for man datory judicial decree by the court of Private Land Claims creating a charge against the treasury of the United States in compensation for each and every acre of land sold by the govern ment within the bounds of any grant said court shall confirm. And the act approved March g. 1887, provides ann ple jurisdiction for the Court of Claims to determine any damages to private rights or interests by reason of appro- priation to public use or trespass or on account Of constructive contracts on the part of the government which covers every possible condition of the settler. the miner, and irrigator who is forced to appropriate and use the waters before the government will al- low him to prove up; nor will it graL f him the title for which he has paid unless such public use is proven con elusive. such appropriation Of water must necessarily be made under Terri torial statute which is or becomes q law by the approval of Congress either by act or implied approval. The ap- propr:ation to a public use by the gov ernmentis evident and private grants interests affected thereby become sub feet matter for the consideration of tue Court of Claims under the act of March 3d.

 Our petitions in both suits pending under act referred to, aver and set forth that there are no adverse claims other than respondent the United States: therefore, no one upon whom service of summons can be made, eX- cepting espondent. tthe UnitedStatesl since each and every private interest held within the bounds of the grant is seized and held under authority of the government.

house dress almost beyond recognition.

house dress almost beyond recognition
The millinery of the season shows nothing
especially new, although the styles are
pretty, and as rule becoming. Fine
straws are used, as also straws so coarse
as to be called basket straws," but these
when trimmed in the fashionable way are
also very striking and effective.
The extraordinary Look of four five or even
six loops of ribbon held in place by an orna-
ment of jet, gold or silver, and having at
the back a tiny frill of lace, which falls
over the hair. does not suggest to the aver
age intelligence either a hat or a bonnet,
but at present such ar arrangement rep
resents a stylish bonnet.
The use of black satin violets, which was
carried to such an extreme last winter has
row been changed to white satin ones. and
nothing can be prettier or more delica tie
than the effect of these flowers upon light
straws Where "a single bunch of this deli
cate trimming used to be thought quite
enough, a massive and copious effect is
row aimed at, great lunches being piled
one above another in effects which are
startlingly pretty and invariably becom-
ing.
The shade of green. whether dark or
light. Is seen in straws as well as dress
fabrics. and is especially conspicuous in
the new coarse StrawS.

stoves Not Desired on Storage,

From the Boston Transcript. 49,
Many of the storage warehouse companies
in the city have this season fnaugurated
a new plan in regard to taking stoves for
storage during the summer, and are refus-
ing to store them unless the fee is paid in
advance or they are stored with other
articles. The reason for the step is that
many of the companies have had valueless
stoves left on their hands by the owners,
who replace them with new ones in the
fall. The stove then had to be kept for a
long while and If the owrer refused to take
it away it was sold for old metal at low
price, 50 that the total loss to the company
was considerable. A few companies in the
city take stoves of all kinds on storage as
formerly, but even those iojpg so complain
that ths business Is attended by loss
