Gently been in this country, in
speaking of our iron and steel manu-
facures, says: "The United States,
with her boundless natural resources
coupled with the energy of her

must have found Il very rapid i'm
provement in their condition since
the rejection of free silver and free
trade, and the adoption of a protec-
tive tariff with a sound money sys-
tenn. late reports from that State
show that a movement is on foot for
the organization of cooperative
beet sugar factories in various parts
of the State and that the area to be
planted to beets this year will be
ten thousand acres in excess of that
of last, and this, too, in the face of
the threat by the factories now ex-
isting of a reduction in the price to
be paid for beets in case Of the annex
