The beet sugar factory near Rome. n. ", cost
1858 900. WAS finished in September. began work
year 1000 barrels Of granunted sugar. It win
not take long TO solve the problem OF American
sugar il approached In this way.--G lobe Demo
crat
1t seems remarkable that the beet sugar
industry should thus take root in the east
in advance of its more general develop
ment in regions that are better adapted
to the growth cf the beet None will
begrudge New York farmers the added
prosperity which the business will bring
them; but the fact Of factories being es-
tablished there should serve as an incent-
i've to western people TO push on in the
work of establishing factories.
Nothing remarkable about it. The
location of this beet sugar factory is
the natural result of the same policy
which has centralized all wealth and
manufacturing enterprises in the east.
A long continued system of legisla-
ton in favor of manufacturing
monopolies, by which the manufact-
urer can build his plant in New Eng
land and by law control western trade,
has centralized everything on the
Atlantic seaboard and adjacent terri
tory. AS long as government favor
itism enables him to control the west
trade and live amid the luxury Of the
east, with the advantage Of a heavy
local patronage, he is going to do SO.
Tear down this paternalism which
puts money into the pockets of man
ufacturing syndicates without protect
ing American labor in the least, and
you will force the factories to scatter
over the land in the place of central
ling. This is true and invincible.
