The Philadelphia Record, which
by the way is one of the Demo
cratic advocates of the sugar tax,
comes down hard on the sugar
beet enthusiasts who are booming
small sugar factories" 1t goes
into the s ibject point by point,
demonstrating to the farmers
that even the cultivation of the
beet entails a great deal more
than simply putting the seed in
the soil and letting it grow. Then
it shows that building a factory
and keeping it running requires
IN amount of money of such mag
Eitude that these institutions can
not be regarded in the same cate
CORY with the cheese and butter
factories. The Record says: "Any
one who shall take the trouble to

attending the establishment Of 4
sugar factory, will readily dis
cover how impractical would be
such a scheme. The matter of
cost would in itself be an almost
insurmountable obstacle. The in
itial expense of the plant runs
into the hundreds of thousands
Of dollars. 1t would be impossible
10 raise 80 much money for such
. purpose in the average small
farming community" That the
sugar beet can be grown in many
sections of the United States can
not be questioned, but whether
even the majority of these sec
tiOns can secure the conditions
necessary for successful cultiya-
ton. which includes the sugar
factory and cheap transportation,
is a problem that has not been
solved by the sugar beet pro
motors. The sanguine statements
of these enthusiasts are really
injuring the industry, and the far
mer who is either financially I'M
able or naturally indispOsed 10

When CalifOrnians discuss the
industrial sins of Hawaiian sugar
they seem to lose sight of the fac
that we have anything else in this
country. They forget that there
is an infant industry here which
i'm time bids fair to OvershadOw
even sugar profits. The coffee
planters are quietly at work nurs-
ing thrifty trees which year by
year give increasing evidence of
producing profitable crops. The
coffee planting colony is daily in
creasing in numbers and in indus
trial prominence so that the>mer-
chants here are beginning to put
an anchor to windward to secure
it's business. Can California af-
ford to antagonize the interests
of this country to such an extent
that it will drive the coffee plant
ers to other markets for their sup
plies? The seaport cities of Wash
ingtOn and Oregon are reaching
out and with the new line of
steamers they are brought within
easy distance. They are paying
attention to the small industry
which when it reaches full growth
will not be quick to turn from
early business associations. All
things being equal, the greater
portion of this cOuntry's business
will be done through San Fran
cisco, but the cities of the North

based on cold propositions of dol
lars and cents that are received
with favor.

GENERAL ARBITRATION.

Following in the wake Of the
satisfactory settlement OF the
Venezuelan difficulty comes the
promise that carly in the new
year diplomats of the United
States and Great Britain viii
complete Il treaty of general arbi-
tratiOn to provide for the settle
ment by arbitration of all mat
tiers Of International difference
that may arise between the two
great English speaking nations.
1t is stated that the treaty pro-
vides for an arbitration commits
sion composed of six members,
three drawn from the judiciary
of the United States and three
from the judiciary of Great Brit
ain. Five years is allowed for an
exchange of notifications. Should
this promise be fulfilled and the
treaty accepted, it will mark an
important epoch in the progress
of the two nations and will lend
new strength TO the increasing
power of the English speaking
people.
There is a strong feeling that
Great Britain's latest moves to
secure. if not the friendship, the
positive neutrality of the United
States is due to the developments
among the European powers,
which constantly threaten war.
Nations of the continent are con
stantly crying: Let us have
peace" and yet each one is steadi-
Iy adding to it's army and navy,
and constantly reaching out with
diplomatic delicacy TO test the
temper of its adversary. How long
this can continue and the nations
live at peace with one another is
open to question, in view OF the
tendency to look upon Great Brit
ain as common enemy. If the
disposition was to cut down the
armed forces. the political atmOs-
phere would be less murky.
But whatever the underlying
cause may be, the salutary effect
upon the welfare of both the in
terested nations cannot be over
estimated from a commercial as
we'll as a moral standpoint. The
existence of a general arbitration
treaty. while not an eternal guar
antee against the possibility of
open rupture, gives an assurance
that war will be a measure of
last resort. and prevents the I'M,
settling of commercial interests
which follow a popular outOurst
of the lingo spirit, as was expert
enced during the discussion of the
Venezuelan affair a year ago.
Statesmen can be depended upon
to act with calm precision, but a
popular frenzy too often forces a
situation wherein statesmen are
powerless to act except as unwil-
ling agents. Let the peaceful I'm,
Outstanding once become estab-
lished and the furries of inter
national jealousies will pass as
such and not, as at present, as
sumo for the time being the APP
pearance of a threatening war
cloud which business commune
ties view with alarm.
