the Board OF Health is neither, a "spe-
cial commission. private corpora ton,
company, association or individuai," but
is an integral part of the city, govern
ment.
If, under the provisions of this sec
ton of the Constitution, thes Board of
Health is prohibited from employment
of men, why did the learned. COUNSEL
as one of the freeholders who framed
the charter-join in it's ratification
when, in express terms. it gives the alb
solute control and nlanagement Of the
public schools, the school property and
school funds and the hiring, employing,
paying and discharging teachers and
janitors to the Board of Education?
For, if the Legislature cannot delegate
the power to the Board of Health to
employ men in any capacity, it most
certainly does not have the power to
delegate the entire and exclusive con-
troll and management of the public
schools, its property and funds to the
Beard of Education.
To give Article XII, Section Is, of
the Constitution the construction con-
tended for by counsel would be to tear
down what he has assisted in building
up-that is, to virtually destroy the
school department Of the city of Sac
ramento responsibility that, from the
light we now have we have no disposi-
ton to assume
Constituting the charter under the
foregoing rules prescribed for its con-
struction and Interpretation it means
that the Board of Health shall have
supervision of all matters appertaining
to the sanitary condition of the city
and all public institutions thereof, and
full powers over all questions of foul
or defective drainage and of the dis
infection and sanitary cleaning of
streets, alleys cesspools, sewers or
nuisances of any description, and of
low places within the city limits cal
culated to receive and retain unhealthy
deposits, except where it's powers are
coordinate with those of the Board of
Trustees, and to this extent the pow
ers given the Board of Trustees by the
provisions of Section 25 of the charter,
and by it's other provisions, are linn
tied. Hence, it follows that the plain
tiff is entitled TO Judgment as prayed
for in his complaint.
Findings will be made and judgment
entered accordingly.

While prosecuting their search Lawson
heard a gurgling sound as If some one

FUTURE OF BEET SUGAR.

Nebraska is Mr.. Bryan's state. and 1t
also Is a state in which the beet sugar
Industry has attained its highest devel-
opment. Mr.. Bryan has expressed him
self as u~nalterably opposed to protec-
ton to this important manufacture,
either by bounty or by tariff.
Beet sugar has become a very great,
almost an overwhelming, industry in
Germany, and it has been nursed by
bounties. Today Germany, besides
supplying its home market with home
grown sugar, exports beet sugar to the
United States alone to the value OF
about 500, 900, 900 a year. 1t goes with
out the saying chat a system OF boun-
ties applied to the United States would
produce az good or better results than
have been obtained in Germany. For
the soil of northwestern states is
sven better adapted TO the growth Of
sugar beets than rs that Of Germany,
and the manufacturing instincts OF our
people r more highly developed.
The Oxford beet sugar factory, the
largest in the United States, has paid
1920 per ton for beet roots. This gives
the farmer a profit far in excess of that +
which he can gain from wheat or corn. |
And the ching now most needed by the
farmer is q crop that shall be more
profitable than any of the cereals.
Moreover, beet sugar factories must Of
necessity b established in farming

countries: they are not of the kind of
industries that are peculiar to cities;
each factory gives employment to hun
dreds of people hat have to be fed
from the adjacent farms. They open
local and remunerative markets for all
products of the dairy. the garden, and
the farm. The repeal of the Mckinley
law put a check on the growth of this
industry.
Yet we ought to make enough sugar
in the United States to supply the home
demand: We can do it if we will pro-
'tect the sugar industries. The total
consumption of sugar in the United
States for 1895 was 1879, IA tons. of
which about 355,4l3 were of ane sugar
produced in Louisiana. 9,26S tor of
cane sugar produced in other states,
and 80, 900 tons of beet sugar produced
in the United States. In Ithe same
year we imported 1904. S66 tons OF
sugar, of which the greater part was
made in Germany from beets.
Under protection the output OF
American beet sugar will increase a
velously. The Mckinley tariff found
the output of American beet sugar tc
be $500 tons; the bounty system raised
it to &c, 900 tons in less than four years
The bounties ought to be restored
