closed down the mine and discharged all

OF the shutdown Is an injunction suit

IDoHo's SUGAR PROPOSITION
The Question of bounty Is Discussed ny
Il Utah Newspaper.

Utah Newspaper.
Salt Lake Tribune: The other day it
was mentioned in the papers that Mr.
James Jennings was at the head of a
syndicate which had gathered up sew
eral thousand acres of land and a
great water right in Idaho, and that the
proposition was, after other preliminar-
les We're performed, to by and by estab-
fish sugar factory. Our near neigh
Dor takes this as a text to show that
'it is believed with proper business
skill and energy and the use of machin-
cry continuously, with the utilization
of all the materials within the product
that is possible. the manufacture of SUI
gar from beets can be carried on with
out artificial aid at a fair profit on the
capital invested" 1t admits that the
Lehi factory has not yet netted any
thing to its stockholders, but believes
that bounty is wrong on principle.
Now, as to the Jennings matter in Ida
no, Mr.. Jennings was for two or three
years one of the chief directors of the
Lehi factory. He learned the business.
Whether he utilities that knowledge in
Idaho or not, or whether the land will
be devoted to other purposes, remains
factory promised there for year or
two to come. Except that the Lehi fac
tory had been built under the provisions
of the Mckinley law, Mr. Jennings
would have known no more about maxi
Ing sugar than he knows about making
champagne, and the object of the Nc
kinley law and the bounty which ac-
companied 1t was to give Americans
chance to gain that knowledge and
to make the probable improvements in
machinery which would be made, so
that the industry could be self-sustain-
ing. 1t was following on the same line
that the industry was established in
France. and which resulted after four or
five years in the saving of more money
to the French people in a single year
than all the bounties that had been
paid up to that date. and changed
France from an importing to an export
ing country, in which capacity she has
worked ever since.
