MORAL Law IN POLITICS.
Henry George Introduced it for the
First Time, Says the Post.

New York, Oct. 29.-The Evening Post
says editorially:
''AIr Georges untimely death before
the close of the canvass gives a certain
tragic interest to a contest which al
ready had moved the community to a
very unusual degree. The time and
form his death leave nothing to be
regretted as far as he is concerned.
He had nothing to look forward to, for
it is all but certain that he could not
have been elected.
His real value lay in his stern and
energetic presentation of Platt and
Croker as criminals to be punished.
This was in a certain sense a new idea.
The moral law for the first time in
politics we may say, spoke through
him to the masses of this city. There
were no mincing, no allowance, no
courtesy, no complaints or qualifica-
tions, such as have been showered on
some other city thieves and reprobates
but the ten commandments in their ma
ked majesty. For this we honor his
memory. We believe every word he
said in this canvass will, now that he
is gone, redounded to the advantage of

WHAT BRYAN SAID.
A Great, Pure and Brave Man was
Henry George.

Logan, O., Oct. 29.-On the death of
Mr.. George, w. J. Bryan today said:
Il have just received a dispatch an
nouncing the death of Henry George.
The suddenness with which the sum
mons came will make more keen the
sorrow which the public generally will
feel at the death of so great, so pure
and so brave a man. By his own un-
aided genius he had made his name
familiar to the reading public all the
world around. Those who agreed with
his theories found in him an ideal lead
er while those who opposed him ad-
mitted his ability and moral courage.
He was one of the foremost thinkers of
the world His death will prove a loss
to literature, society and politics"

vised of the death of Henry George. The
senator said:
1T is a shock to the country. Henry
George was an honest man; a man of
conviction. But as far as his usefulness
was concerned, it was neutralized by
his one idea. Had he been broader in
his views he would have been a great
benefactor of his country. But he was
no dema gogue. George was winning
many votes from Tammany."

Thirty-two years ago. April Is, 1866.
Abraham Lincoln, the martyr presi-
dent, was assassinated in a theater in
Washington. d. c., by the elder Booth.
All the world went into mourning for
great man cut off in the midst Of a
career Of transcendent usefulness. To-
day the great republic. saved by his
wisdom and intrepid character. is Just
recovering from the effects of a social
and business rebellion against the best
interests Of the people which threat
ened TO be even more far-reaching and
disastrous than the civil combat which
cost Lincoln his life. Once more the
republican party has assumed the
reins Of government, and with the ex-
encise of the same hard common sense
and patriotism that ever moved the
great war president, the country Will
again be protected from ruin, and the
people, more than trebled in numbers,
can see their road TO national and in
dividuaI prosperity. the like of which
no nation on the globe has ever yet
attained.

AMERICAN BEET SUGAR.

Globe-Democrat
A payment Of about 800. 600. 900 an
nually to foreign countries for a pro-
duct adapted to our own soil and cii-
mate is plainly an industrial error.
Within the last ten years attention
has been directed to this wasteful
method of conducting business, and
signs are multiplying that the proper
remedies will be applied. Last year
every pound OF WHEAT and -four ex-
ported was required 10 pay for the
sugar imported. Our exports Of cot
ton were only double the value Of
the sugar imported. The value Of
all exports Of live and dressed beef.
beef products and lard just balanced
that Of the sugar bought abroad. II
is now known beyond question that
the sugar beet can be grown in many
Of our states and Of a quality unsur-
passed anywhere. Sugar cane, also. is
adapted to a larger area in this coun-
try than is generally supposed, but
taking the world at large the yield
Of beet sugar is increasing twice as
sast as cane sugar production.

portance TO the farmers, manufactur-
ers and merchants Of Germany and
France that the two governments are
engaged in a sort Of protective duel
over the first place in it's expectation,
for which both countries pay a boun-
ty. Some time ago Germany proposed
to gradually extinguish the sugar
bounty, but the popular pressure
against this step has been too strong
bounty on sugar is nearly half cent
a pound, and France has advanced its
export bounty in order " keep even.
Supplying sugar TO the world must BE-
a profitable business. Our own aver
age cash payment for foreign sugar
Of about s274,OOO every day in the year
is proof enough that there is a great
deal of money in it from one customer
alone This stream Of treasure should
be diverted 10 our own farmers and
factory workers, and in the course OF
time this country should reach Sc
cure place as heavy exporter Of
sugar
Our production Of beet sugar be-
tween 1850 and 1896 Increased from 500
tons to 10000 tons. This is not much,
but 1t is beginning. One important
point to be kept in mind is that an
American consumes two or three times
as much sugar as a German or a
Frenchman. Sugar here is considered
necessity, not a luxury, and our
abundant and varied crops of fruit
require its free use. The culture OF
