SUGAR BEETS.
Why New Mexico should 60 Into
Raising Beets and Into Beet
sugar Factories.

No time has been lost by the state of
New York IN getting down to practical
ideas in encouraging the production of
beet sugar within its boundaries. At the
last session of the Legislature an appro-
priation of $4,000 was made to promote
the culture of the sugar beet, and a state
bounty will be paid on the crop. The
state department of agriculture has se-
lected Is tracts in 13 different counties
for official tests. Each farmer owning
the land chosen is paid $25 for it's use and
furnished with rain gauges. He is re-
quired to make weather observations
three times day, and to send weekly re-
ports to the state bureau. Sugar beet
seeds are supplied to other farmers who
agree to send in reports at intervals dur
ing the season. By the end of the year
New York will have obtained large fund
of information on sugar beet conditions
throughout the state, and at small cost.
One great advantage to the farmer in
growing sugar beets is that it brings into
his neighborhood large factory with a
numerous force of workers, adding to the
population and to the demand for other
articles produced on the farm. The aver
age cost of factory is $25O,000, which Is
necessarily permanent investment, and
one not likely to be made without large
additional capital. In the United States
at present there are three factories in
California and two more in course of
erection; two in Nebraska, one in New
Mexico, one in Utah and one in New
York state. A comparison with Europe
in this respect creates surprise at the
are in Germany 397 beet sugar factories,
in France 1856, in Austria 216, in Russia
297, and in Belgium aud Holland over
200, total of nearly 1900 great factories
devoted to one article alone. In climate
or soil those countries possess nothing
not found in the United States.
A great revolution has occurred within
few years in the worlds production of
sugar. Though Cuba's export of sugar
has declined nine-tenths, the loss is not
seriously felt. Last year six European
countries produced 4,750,00O tons of beet
sugar. Under the stimulus of government
protection and export bounties the price
of sugar, free on board for export, has
declined to about &c a pound. Yet the
area of land planted with sugar beets in
Germany this year is 1,062,90S acres,
against 1,054, 1874 acres in 1896 and $50, ,749
acres in 1895. Another important fact lie
that German farmers get as much sugar
from 1926 units of raw beets as formerly
from 1S units. 1t is manifestly absurd for
the United States to be sending abroad
every year more than $lOO,OO0,O0o for
sugar. The money should be kept at
home and 60 into the pockets of our own
farmers, factory Workers and manufac.

Mckinley at Canton.

Canton, July 3.-President Mckinley
and his party reached the city by the 1890
train and we're met at the depot by citi-
zens enmasse. The crowd almost equaled
that of the lst of March, when the prssi.
dent departed for the inauguration.
Although the McKinley's travelled qui-
etly on a regular train, thousands of peo-
pie we're gathered at nearly every station.
At Alliance and Salem the crowds were
particularly large. The president unat.
tended, went to the rear of the platform,
and shook hands with hundreds of his old
congressional district constituents. The
Canton crowd was 80 great that police
patrol was kept busy making way from
the station platform to the carriages.

She said: "You may call this love

with Mr.. Ward. He can support me, and

Bradbury denies that she pawned her
jewels, but confesses to a shortage Of

good time, and seems surprised her
capitalist husband has not pursued them.

Special to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican.
Silver City, July 3.-Judge Baptz hand
ed down 40 opinion in the injunction
case of the United States VS.. The Rio
Grande Dam & Irrigation company, late
last night.
The Injunction was dissolved, the court
holding that acts of congress forbidding
the obstruction of streams and the diver
sions of water to the detriment of the navl-
gable capacity of such streams, was not in
tended to apply to arid regions even
though the stream should become navi-
gable at point lower down. The court
further held that treaties with Mexico
have not surrendered the rights of Ameri-
cans to divert the waters of the Rio
Grande, and that the Rio Grande in New
Mexico is not navigable stream actually
or technically.
The following syllabus of the opinion
will make clear the detailed opinion of
Judge Bantz as rendered last evening.
First-Under our treaties with Mexico,
each republic reserved all rights within
its own territorial limits. This would be
so upon the principles of international
law, even without such a reservation
The waters lying wholly within the United
States, belong exclusively to it, and the
soil within the United States is not
burdened with servitude in favor of Mex
leo, in respect to any duty, to SO discharge
water, as to promote or preserve the
navigabilitY of the Rio Grande.
Second-It is not the capacity of a
stream to float a log or row boat, which
renders it a navigable river, within the
acts of congress of 1890-l892, but whether
at regular periods of sufficient duration,
and its regular condition, its capacity is
such as to be susceptible to beneficial use,
as public highway for commerce. The
Rio Grande in New Mexico is not navi-
gable river.
Third-The power to control and regu-
late the use of waters not navigable, ex-
ercised by the states and territories In the
arid west, was confirmed by congress by
the act of 1866, and that power now re-
sides wholly in such states and territories
under the act of 1866 and subsequent
ones, therefore the diversion of such local
waters is not in violation of any act of
congress, even though the navigable
capacity of stream, at distance below,
may become thereby impaired.
