The republican caucuses last evening
were rather meagerly attended the meet

not responsible for this as there war tic
desire in the party for partizan caucuses

stigated by a few personal schemers for
purposes OF their own. About two dozen
were present in the First ward though
judging from the size of the vote a large
majority of them were only onlookers.

THE GRAND JURY REPORT

The grand jury which has just filed
its report seems to have been an ex-
ceptionally courageous and efficient or
ganization. The task which they have
completed, as evidenced by their re-
mort was a work environed by many
difficulties. yet no department OF the
county or city government seems to
have escaped their examination ana
lust criticism. Many cases OF ofhclal
neglect or incapacity have been laid
bare by the jury, as well as some few
cases of what appear to be downright
crookedness. In those directions of dis
honesty, as indicated by the report.
duty is now made to devolve upon the
Office of the district attorney. 1t is
well understood that when public
functionary allows his cupidity to OBJ
tain the mastery over his integrity,
his first interest is to cover up his
tracks. The grand jury will therefore
generally fail to develop more than
positive surface indications, but when
this has been done, and we'll done, there
is generally buried treasure that will
yield abundantly to the energetic on
slaught of the department of criminal
While it is decidedly
that so many of the de-
partments and sub-departments of our
municipal government should betray
such emphatic evidence of mismanage-
ment, or of something worse, the dis
of the plodding taxpayer
will be somewhat assuaged by the re-
ports from the county hospital and the
farm. The fact that so capable
and discriminating a pody of censors
should have felt it duty to so warmly
the management of these in
;titutions is a compliment which means
more than mere favorable
notice.

leave his card In the. ONCE Of the Sec
retary of war as a token of respect.
This assurance Of General Alger is
even better than a previous one he gave
touching this visit of Mr.. Hood. He is
reported to have said on this other oc-
casion that Mr.. Hood called and wanted
to discuss the harbor. but that he cut
him short and would not listen. Had
that been the correct report of the in
terview it would show that the railroad
was still In the ring (however much out
OF wind) to fight San Pedro. But If Mr..
Hood absolutely abstained from any
reference to the matter this would indi-
cate that Mr.. Huntington has given up
the contest, and is ready to accept the
inevitable.
To those of us who know Mr.. Hood, but
are not so we'll acquainted with Mr.. AL
ger, the question will still remain as to
whether Alger was hoodwinked or is
trying to hoodwink us.

THE LOTTERY LAW

What constitutes a lottery, within the
meaning of the United States postoffice
department? Recent complications rem
der an explicit definition necessary, and
one from the department should soon
be forthcoming. The Arkansas Gazette
recently offered a S. gold piece to the
pupil in any public school in the state
who, within month, should send in the
shortest and best answer to the question:
What is news?" The postoffice author
tiles at Little Rock informed the Ga
zette that the publication of such an Of
fer violated the lottery law, and that
papers containing it could not pass
through the mails. An appeal to the
postmasterge general has been taken, and
meanwhile the publication of the Ca
zette's offer has been suspended Many
newspapers and magazines are inter-
ested in this case and may be affected by
the decision. If the Little Rock post
master is Upheld by the department, then
other journalistic enterprises will have
to be stopped. There is. for instance,

GERMANY AND SUGAR

Less than third Of century ago Ger
many imported most of her sugar, but
she has since encouraged the beet sugar
industry to such an extent that, besides
supplying about all the sugar consumed
in that export, the German beet sugar
factories have now a surplus for ex-
port, and the German government has
recently increased the export bounty on
such sugar to enable it to monopolize
the American market
Not only this, but it sent commission
to this country to examine into the pos
sibilities of Americas producing its own
sugar. The commissioners were Prof.
Herzfeld and DR.. Frentzel of Berlin
Mr.. George Scheller of Breslau and Mr..
T. Hecker of Madgeburg.
These gentlemen visited the six sugar
factories now in successful operation in
the United States-at Grand Island and
Norfolk, Neb.; at Lehi, Utah; at Wat
sonville. Alvarado and Chino. California
and were forced to admit that the ma
tional possibilities of this industry were
far more fiattering in this country than
in Germany. Their report to this effect
as one of the influences that induced
the German government to increase the
export bounty on sugar in hopes that the
heavy shipments to this country and
lower prices would discourage the indus
try here. This commission was aston
ished at the fine quality of beets pro-
duced for existing factories in our west
ern states, and laid stress on the fact
that there are a great many sections in
the United States where the industry
has a much better prospect than in Ger
many. Incidentally also the fact is
stated that when they saw the splendid
results in the operation of the Lehi fac
tory, constructed wholly with American
machinery they admitted and were
free to state that American machin-
cry for beet sugar manufacture
is ahead of anything to be found in any
home market?
While our German friends are showing
such aggressiveness, and are so anxious
to control the American market, how
long will it be before the American peo-
pie themselves wake up to the possibil
ties which are just within their grasp
and hold for their own this valuable
market?
