TALK IS CHEAP.

The Reno Journal, i'll referring to
the growth of the beef sugar industry
in California and other places. won-
de1s why TIE attention of capital HIS
not been directed to the State of Ne
vada as a favorable location for sugar
manufacturing operations. What the
Journal says concerning the advan-
climate and favorable soil is unqueS-
tionably true Nature has certainly
dore her part, and with equally fav-
orable artificial conditions, our sage
brush State could probably manufaC-
ture and export enough sugar to at
least re1nove the necessity for the
importation of a pound from any for
But with all these natural advanta-
ges, with the almost unlimited power
conferred upon the sugar trust by the
present Congress and Administration,
and the equally favored railway cor
poration which the same legislative
and executive combination, enables
to fix the price upon all of our pro
ducts of export, it is not a matter of
wOnderment that u State is over
looked by capitalist seeking locations
for manufacturing enterprises.
Either one of the two obstructive ele-
ments above mentioned would be
more than sufficient to deter the most
venturesome investor of private CAPT,
tai from choosing our tax and corpo-
ration ridden State as the scene of his
financial operations, while taking
them in conjunction, it would be
folly, amounting almost to insanity,
to seriously consider such an under
taking as the establishment of extern
sive sugar works within III borders
The beet sugar industry will never
be successfully conducted IN Nevada,
so long as the market is controlled by
the gigantic monopoly whose cOntri-
button of millions to the Republican
election fund was returned to it a
hundred fold in the adoption 0: the
sugar clause in the Dingley bill, MOI
while prohibitory rates for transporta
ton are possible upon our home pro
ducts. 1t is idle to talk of it, anC
the time and labor of the members 0
the Nevada press can be far NOR
prohtably employed at this time il
devising means for removing the OBJ
structiOns to legitimate enterprise
than in useless attempts to perSuad
capital to encounter such insurnOunt
able obstacles as vicious Legislation
and soulless corporations have ereCtet
around the natural of til
State. Perhaps little Nevada canno
do much towards instituting the re
forms necessary to insure her Ow
prosperity, as the abuses are

She can, however. enter her protest
and her people can elect such repre-

Children and a San Francisco
Man Dead at New York

NEW YORK, Oct. Ia woman with
four children registered as Mrs. Caroline

ROYCE'S RECORD
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct clark E
X. Royce, who committed suicide today
at the Grand Union Hotel, New York,

vious attempts to take his life in this
city. He was formerly Secretary and
Treasurer of the California Veterans
Home Association, but a shortage of
over $4,000 being discovered in his ac-
counts he was discharged and indicted
by the Grand Jury for felony embezzle
ment. While the investigation was
pending Royce registered at the Burling

himself in the head. He recovered, how
ever, and stood trial for the defalcatio
but was acquitted upon technicality

FOREIGN AFFAIRS
Cause Long Discussion Among
Cabinet Members


Cabinet Members
WASHINGTON, Oct 1..The first
meeting Of the cabinet since the return
Of the president from Massachusetts,
was held today ard was attended by
every member except Secretary Gage,
who Is not in Washington. The foreign
affairs occupied the greater portion Of
the time given up to discussion, though
prosecution of the governments case
against the Urion Pacific Railroad COM
pany also came in for a good deal Of
considerations Indeed, it is said that
the only action in the cabinet today was
in the interest Of closing this issue, and
1t can be stated that the details Of the
ranged at last.
The Spanish crisis attracted much at
tention and was discussed at some
length. For some reason Minister Wood
ford has still left his governme mt official
ly unadvised Of the recent happenings
In Madrid, and nothing has been heard
from him since his interview with the
Duke Of Tetuan, the Spanish minister
for foreign affairs In the last cabine t.
This fact compelled reliance upon the
newspaper reports Of the recent i'm
portant events in Spain.
The condition of Hawaii, as revealed
to A6niral Beardslee were talked of,
and with evident satisfaction the cabinet
received the admirars statement that
In all his stay In Hawaiian waters his
relations with the Japanese officials, on
shore and on the cruiser. Naniwa, were
OF the most pleasant nature. In no case
had there been the slightest exhibition
Of purpose on the part Of the Japanese
commander to attempt any coup, and
there were constant exchanges Of visits
between the officers Of the Naniwa and
of the United States war ships.

TORONTO, Ont, Oct. 1.-The Mail and

Ontario, one vessel, not exceeding a
hundred tons burden and armed with

lakes. two such vessels, similarly armed {;
ON Lake Champlain, ONE vessel
1T was further proposed that all other
armed vessels should be dismantled and
that no further vessels of war should be
built or armed on the lakes. To all this
her majesty's government agreed. Now
the United States is sending to the
upper lakes the warship Yantic, of 900
tors, as a training vessel. She is not TO
be armed when she passes through the
canals, as that would violate the agree

attention Of the government at Ottawa

them. Why should the International

One Wounded Man May Die-No
Clue Found

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.-Five of
the passengers of the stage coach which
was robbed near Milton yesterday have
arrived in this city. They are Clarence
M. Ackerman, A. Amaloff, Michael Mes
reIla, Mrs. Hanna Abrahams and M.
Singer. Two of them. Ackerman ard
Ama1off were wounded.
Ackerman Is at ST. Luke's hospital
with bullet lodged Immediately under
the cuticle of his left breast. The serious
ness of this wound has not been definitely
determined. but 1t is the belief of DR.
R. F. Gray. the resident physician of
the hospital, that he will not die.
The same bullet which cut a hole
through Amaloff's wrist cut it's way
nearly clean through the body of Acker-
man. There is possibility, DR.. Gray
says, that instead of traversirg a
straight course the bunet struck one of
Ackerman's ribs on the right side, de-
flected and passed around his body at
the back until it's force became spent an
inch below the left nipple.
The stories Of the robbery told by the
passengers merely confirm the story al
ready sent out by the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Oct. lat the city
nomination convention Of the Democrat
ic alliance Of Greater New York. Henry
George was unanimously nominated for
mayor. The nominating speech was
made by Charles Francis Adams. The
nomination was greeted with enthusias-
tic applause.
The platform says:
1--WE deem 1t essential that the Demo-
cratic party of Greater New York should
reaffirm the Chicago platform, pledge It,
self to the policy of municipal ownership
an6 operation of franchises and to the
principles Of direct employment instead
Of the contract system.
1.-THE action OF the city convention Of
September 30 Is clear to all. Tammany
ard her allies hide away the national
banner Of Democracy ard are ashamed
10 march under Its folds. The Benedict
Arnolds of last fall who deserted to the
enemy on the eve Of battle are to be re-
stored to places Of honor and friendship:
the franchise grabbers are to retain their
clutch on the city public ways by
Tammany's aid and coMivance. Thus
Tammany and her allies separate them
selves from the great Democratic party
Of the nation and must be looked upon
solely as local body of unprinclpled
spoils hunters, unfit to sit in the coun-
ellis of the party whose doctrine they ig-
r,ore and whose honor they betray-"
The platform also declares in favor
of municipal home rule, municipal own
ership and operation OF franchises. three
cent street railway fares, dollar gas, an
eight hour day at prevailing rates Of
wages, representation of abor in the ad-
ministrat ton and legislative branches of
the city government, free open air places
for the holding OF public meetings and
opposition to government by injunction.
A conference committee was appoint
ed to confer with all others in sympathy
with the Henry George movement and
to arrange for a mass meeting. Then the
convention adjourned until next Monday
night.
