most extensive and valuable product of
their fertile fields. 1t was his careful and
intelligent selection of the best machinery
and methods for the extraction of sugar
winch has caused the Watsonville factory
to grow to its present proportions and
achieve its present success. 1t is to-day
the splendid faith and liberal aid which
Claus Spreckels devotes to the sugar in
dustry that gives it reasonable assurance
OF becoming the largest enterprise for pro-
duction and profit the Pacific Coast will
possess.
The people of California are not blind to
the greatness of this industry nor un-
mindful OF the men who have made it
successful. nor regardless of their own in-
terest in its further growth. In various
portions OF the State the owners of lands
and the promoters of industry are plan
ming and preparing to engage in the rais-
Ing OF beets and the extraction of
thelr sugar. The Watsonville plant is
certain soon to become the nucleus of
other factories for the utilization of thou
SANDS OF acres newly devoted to beet cul-
ture. When it is remembered that last
year the total output of American sugar
was only adequate to supply 10 per cent
OF the demand of the United States and
that more than $125, COG, 900 went away to
Germany, Cuba, Hawaii and other foreign
lands for sugar alone, it will readily be
seen how mighty are the possibilities of
this great industry and how important it
is to Californians that it should be pro-
tected and encouraged.
The Repu blican party is expressly
pledged to the ample and adequate pro-
tection OF the beet-sugar industry. Every
Californian, therefore, who believes in the
upbuilding of such enterprises in his own
State, and even in his own neighborhood,
should see to it that his vote in the COM
ing election shall be cast for the Republi-
can party, which guarantees protection to
the California beet-sugar industry.

THE STATE COMMITTEE.

We regret to note that yesterday some
Republicans permitted their disappoint-
ment over the decision of the party con-
troversy in this City to lead them into
hasty and ill-advised criticisms of the
State Central Committee. Such criticisms
were uncalled for and unjust. The COM
mittee did no more than due regard for
the facts and the law of Republican regu-
larity required it to do. A calmer con-
sideration of the subject will, we believe,
lead all Republicans to give cordial ap-
proval to the committees decision.
The State Committee is made up of i'm
partial men chosen from all parts of the
State. 1t includes such well-known and
honored Republicans as A. B. Lennon of
Santa Rosa, S. n. Androus OF Los Angeles.
f. L. Coombs of Napa and I. B. Dudley Of
San Diego. The re putation of these men
and of their colleagues for honesty and
party loyalty is beyond question. Why
should any Republican assert the con-
trary2
1t must be borne in mind that the men,
bers of the State Committee did not seek
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-02
UNITY AND VICTORY.

The decision of the State Central Com
mittee will be accepted by all loyal Re-
publicans as final settlement of the dis
sensions in the ranks of the party in this
City. These dissensions were unfortunate
and should never have arisen. There has
been at no time any good reason why the
Republicans OF San Francisco should not
have been as steadfast in support OF the
party organization here as the Republic
cans of other parts Of the State have been
of the organization in their localities. 1t
is useless, however, to go back and dis
cuss these differences now. fney existed,
they have been appealed to the highest
authority of the party in the State and
they have been settled. The rest is clear.
All Republicans must bow to that deci-
sion. Those who differed before must
unite now and move forward in the work
of carrying San Francisco for Colonel
Taylor and for Mckinley and Hobart.
The outlook for united Republicanism in
San Francisco is certainly cheering enough
to rouse the spirit of even the least sanguine.
With the Democratic bosses and their
"push" and pull divided and wrangling
among themselves, if the Republicans of
the City unite in support of Colonel Taylor
it will be possible to achieve the best VIC
tory for good government known to our
records for many year. We may be able
to establish q complete Republican admin
istration in all departments Of the City,
elect legislators who will carry out Repub-
lcan measures for the State and send a
stanch Republican 10 the United States
Senate; and moreover, roll up such a Re-
publican majority in San Francisco as will
make the State sure for the Republican
National ticket, protection and prosperity.
Why should men permit petty differ
ences OF opinion on small matters to pre-
vent them from uniting for the accom-
plishment of great results2 Why should
any Republican carry these differences OF
opinion beyond the limits of the party and
seek some tribunal 10 overthrow the high
set party authority2 How long will the
Republican party be self-governing body
if the decisions of the State Committee are
to have no weight and authority with the
rank and file2
Surely it is time to stop fighting. Elec-
ton day draws near and WORK must be
done against the common foe. If this City
is not to be ruled by Boss Buckley or
Boss Rainey the people must elect Charles
L. Taylor to the office of Mayor. That is
the issue before the Republicans of San
Francisco. All Repu ublicans in the Fourth
District are Loyalty supporting Mr.. Spear
and Mr.. O'Brien. Why should not the
Republicans of the whole City follow the
decision of the State Central Committee
and give loyal support to Colonel
Taylor and the whole municipal and legis-
latiye ticket?
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-02

the Office, nor did they of their own mo-
tion interfere to arbitrate the dissensions
OF the party in San Francisco. They we're
chosen for the Office by the authorized
representatives of the party and were
called to decide the San Francisco con-
troversy by members OF all elements of
the local party. and especially by the fac
tion of the men who are now finding fault
with their decision.
1t is under the management and leader
ship of the State Committee that the
Republicans of California are to make the
fight for Mckinley and protection. All
who desire the success of the National
ticket and the triumph of Republican
principles at the polls must give an active,
earnest and sincere support to the State
Committee. Disloyalty to party leaders
at this iuncture is disloyalty to :he party
itself. We must have unity of action if we
expect to have victory.
There can be no question that great
majority of the Republicans of this City
win cordially acquiesce in the decision of
the committee. Certainly no fair man will
countenance attacks made upon men who,
to say the least of it, acted according to
their judgment for the right and the best
interest Of the party. Criticism fails to be
effective when it assails men of such
standing on such fimsy grounds and from
motives which are so clearly Ehe result of
personal disappointment. The COMMITTEES
may rest assured that the great majority
OF Republicans not of San Francisco only
but OF the whole State will commend their
action and cordially support them in that
and in all else they do to promote har-
mony, unite the party and make Califor-
mia Republican State.
Uphold the Committee; recognize its
authority; acquiesce in its decision, and
under one flag go forward to victory.

THE BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.

The most notable industrial growth of
the last decade in California has been that
OF the beet-sugar industry. Beginning
with an experimental output of capital in
the production OF sugar-beets and the
erection OF small factory for the ex-
traction of sugar, it has grown to proper
tions which even few of our own people
realize and become one OF the greatest in
dustries in the State.
The honor and credit of having devel-
oped this great industry belong by COM
mon consent to Claus Spreckels. It
was his faith in the responsive qualities of
California's soil and climate, which first
called the beet-sugar industry into being.
1t was his liberality in aiding and encour-
aging the farmers of the Pajaro and Sa-
linas valleys which has made beets the

In a pamphlet entitled "The Silver
Plot d. Griffith, referring to some OF the
names on the above list, says:
The silver interests of the Hearst estate are
immense. The family owns a paper in San
Francisco, and within year or two bought
another IN New York to help along the scheme
OF forcing the Government to buy the family's
silver mines product. The latter paper young
Hearst conducts in person. 1t is the only
metropolitan daily advocating the 10 to i
plank. Most of the mines in which the Hearst
estate is interested are conducted as close
corporations. Only one OF its silver properties
need be spoken OF here to indicate the i'm
mense wealth OF the estate-that is the On.
tario mine near Park City, Utah. 1t has paid
in dividends $13, 10000.
When, twenty years hence, the history of
the present campaign comes to be written it
viii no doubt excite the marvel of the his
torian that this vast conspiracy, this combina-
ton of huge capital and monopoly. should
have been able to successfully mask its exist
ence for so long period and fool the people
into considering proposition aimed to
benefit only monopoly and plutocracy, as
represented by the silver barons, while certain
to spread ruin and despair among the people
rs whole. The historian of that time will
search in vain for any thing like 1t, or for any,
thing resembling this combination, which,
with one hand upon the mining industry of
the West seeks to hold the Government in the
grasp of the other.
1t is an amazing fact that the people should
not have seen the truth, yet that In itself is
not without parallel. 1t has often been the
case that great and stupendous truths have
come to light with full force in moment, to
be instantly recognized and excite wonder
that they were not seen before.
Will this conspiracy succeed?
The same lofty, patriotic spirit which caused
men to leave the pillow in the furrow, to fling
down tools in the workshop and to put aside
meet another great peril of their country will
give an answer 10 that question in November

State, county and National nominations
have now been made. and to the intelligent
voter is presented the opportunity to decide
for whom he will cast his ballot at the elec-
ton this fall. The list of county nominees on
both tickets is, we believe, made up of good,
conscien tious, God-fearing men. In the county
platforms are incorporated wise and whole
some resolutions, and we feel assured that
what either party has pledged itself 20 perform
IL will carry out. Party doctrines need
not guide a man in clecting county officers
The National ticket must, of course, be
viewed in q different light. Great principles.
indeed, the very welfare of the Republic are
atstake. To brins about return of National
prosperity, to save the country from dishonor
and the currency from degradation is the
privilege and duty of every voter this year.

convinced that the Republican party, stand
ing for honest money and protective tariff,
offers a relief to the present National distress.
