Utah Sugae Co. in The Lead

When the sugar factory employees
again enter that institution they will no
tice that great many changes have
taken place. Past experiences have
shown that these will lie for the best
and will improve the working OF the
factory. These changes will continue
until the factory is equipped to handle
the juice from 1000 tons Of beets per day.
One OF the most important changes this
year is in the south building where the
old bone black filters have been remov-
ed aud a complete new csmose plant in
stall ed For the fret time in America.
Supt. Vallez made the Osmose process
of working low grade syrup, n success
here last year. Only small plant was
put in but this was so successful that a
larger Que is now being put in. Supt.
Vallez took particular pains with this
part of the factory last season and was
exceedingly we'll pleased with the re
suits and upon his recommended ion the
present plant was.put in. The putting
in of a rasping station at Springvillc
will necessitate some change here
Again this company is in the lead in
this matter as it is the iirst con pany in
America to try this method. 1t has
been in successful operation in Europ-
can countries for some time and there is
no doubt OF its success here. The
Meaux (France) sugar factory is connec-
ted with thirteen rasping stations and
handles the juice from 1000 ton OF beets
per pay, At these stations is a diffusion
battery whose the juice is extracted
from the beets The juice is then mix
ed with small quantity of limo and
pumped to the central refinery to be
worked up. Work has already began
on the pipe line to Springyille and by
fall everything will be IN readiness for
the crop The beet sugar men in this
country will watch the progress of this
method with much interest and other
companies will doubtless adopt it in the
future. The Utah Su gar Go. and Supt.
Vallez deserve much credit for being
the first to adopt these new methods in
America.

More Money for Lehi

During the shearing season just end
ed 10000 sheep were sheared at the
Austin and Webb shearing correll wes'
If here. These sheep averaged q lbs.
per lead or total OF $4,000 lbs. wool
which sold for llle cts. per pound
This means $8l ,74O for the product Of
the one shearing correl. Considerable
of this money will be put in circulation
here. Most OF those who did the shear
ing we've Lehi men and over 81 900 was
paid them. Nearly all the wool was
sold to Reed smeot and $500 was paid

some OF the benfts which comes to us
from the sheep industry yet there is
perhaps no industry in the state which
is more legislated against than the sheep
industry.

Low temperature, frost and high

during the week ending May LIST, al

cured over the State, on April 9th was
beneficial. The frost did considerable

completed. Spring wheat is in good

ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.

That is the verdict of a coro-
ners inquest held over the body
of James Goldsmith, at Hoising-
ton Monday of this week.
1t appears from the evidence
at the inquest, that Goldsmith,
who was a liveryman at Hois-
ington, while in company with
Dave Goosey, Garb Miller and
John Hoch, was drying out of
town Sunday about 2 p. m. AS
they crossed the railroad track
a pistol of Millers' dropped out
of the carriage. Miller got out
and picked it up; it was covered
with mud, and while he was in
the act of cleaning the mud off
of it, the weapon was discharged
in some manner, the ball strik-
ing Goldsmith in the corner of
the right eye, killing him almost
instantly. All witnesses were
positive that there had been no
quarrel, no cause for any trouble,
and that the killing was purely
accident al.
Deceased was a man of about
As years of age. He leaves a
wife and four children-the Oldest
daughter about 16. He carried
1000 insurance in the Modern
WoOdmen of America. This sud-
den and tragical death cast a
deep gloom over the people of
our north side neighbOr.

What the Flag Means.

President Mckinley says the flag
means one thing in the Philippines
and another thing in the United
States.
Well, that sounds all right, but what
does the flag mean in Hawaii?
1t means that slavery fiourishes
under the stars and stripes. The
sugar barons have instituted a feudal
Imperialism in Hawaii aud the laws
they have made are upheld by the
Supreme Court.
Rabbi M. S. Levi of San Francisco,
who has just returned from Hawaii,
confirms this statement as follows.
Slavery and Involuntary servitude
of the most degrading type exist
in the Hawaiian Islands today as a
means for the enforcement of contracts
made by laborers to work on the
sugar and coffee plantations
Thirty six Galicians, subjects of
tue Augustrian empire, are now con-
fined in Oahupire, Honolulu, because
they refused to comply longer with e. e
onerous conditions imposed on them
by their owners. They were convicted
of 'deserting contract SERVICE and
were sentenced to indefinite iDprison-
ment. They can gain release only by
buying their way out of prison or
going back to the cane fields
What does the flag mean in the
Philippines? 1t means government
without the consent of the governed, !,
taxation without representation, and
war of imperialistic conquest.
What does the flag mean in the Sulu
islands? 1t means chat slaves there
can secure their freedom by paying $40
to their masters. Lacking this, the
slaves rem aiu subject to the tyranny
which ended in the United States
when Lincoln issued his emancipation
proclamation.
Truly, President Mckinley was
more poetic than truthful when he
gave that rhetorical recital as to what
tho flag means.

faithless conduct of Mckinley, and as
one of the million voters who stepped
out of the Democratic party, bewails

Watterson appears to be deeply DIS
appointed in the president he helped to
elect aud swears by the point of his
Bowie knife that Mckinley will never
get his vote again. and appears con
vinced that the other ooo,oo Demo-
Gratis who made the mistake he made
will not repeat it.
