~ NCE more The Call has demonstrated the
| superiority Of its news service that OF all
its contemporaries and competitors by being
first to give information of great importance and OF
worldwide interest. The demonstration accom-
plshed yesterday by the exclusive publication OF the
report OF the Samoan Commissioners the condi-
ton of affairs in the islands and the steps that have
been taken to establish stable government.
This news affects the interests Of three great nations
the United States, Germany and Great Britain
and is matter of concern to all who have dealings
with the commerce of the South Pacific Ocean The
attention OF the world has been for long time di-
rected to the Samoan Islands, and is well known,
the crisis there at one time threatened to interrupt the
friendly relations OF the three powers. Such being
the case all intelligent have been eager to learn
that make any pretense to legitimate gathering
have been on the alert get the information early
as possible.
The success of The Call in this, in other cases,
is due to the fact that while expends neither money
nor energy for fakes spares neither to obtain rel
able news from all quarters OF the globe. gaudy
fictitious interview with the Pope, the Emperor OF
China or the Ahkoond OF Swat, is easily concocted,
and requires little expenditure OF either brains coin
but to be first in obtaining information concerning
peatedly accomplished successes in that way whcd
fully attest its superiority a Legitimate newsgath
erer over all rivals

FLOURISHING, BUT MENACED.

ECRETARY WILSON in the course OF an in
terview published in The Call yesterday gave
- some very gratifying information OF the rapid
advance OF the sugar beet industry in the United
States In the course OF his statement he said:
Last fail we had nineteen factories in the entire
United States for the manufacture of beet sugar This
fall we will have fully fifty. They are being built in
the States of New York and New Jersey for the most
part though there are some going up in other States
as we'll One is in progress of construction in Mime
sofa one in each OF the Pacific Coast States one has
been completed at Ogden, Utah, and another is now
going tip at Grand Junction, Colo"
AS an illustration of the extent to which the industry
can be expanded in this country without exceeding
the present demand for sugar, the Secretary went on
to say: Eve bought IS,oooo tons last year. That
is about the total amount produced in Germany The
purchases we made were contracted for in Germany,
France Belgium and Holland. To offset the neces-
sitv for purchasing abroad and to produce all that
would be needed for consumption in this country
would require the operation OF about two hundred fac
tories, which could be built at average cost OF
about 100000 apiece 1t would require from mil
lion to one million and half acres which to grow
the beets."
That is certainly splendid outlook for American
agriculture and American capital. To cultivate I5oo,-
600 acres of land and and to operate
factories at an average cost of 100000 each
great deal OF work Tor great many men. Unfor-
tunately that fourshng prospect there is the
menacing cloud OF Imperialism. Secretary Wilson did
not call it cloud he did call it imperialism, he
did not call it "a menace Those words are ours and
must not be attributed to him. by ndirecton,
but the Secretary said:
GAS near as can be ascertained by sending agent
to the Caribbean Sea Islands it costs the people OF
those places cents per pound to produce their sugar
Where the pulp from the factory is wasted or fed to
cheap steers it costs the people of the United States
about 3A cents per pound to get their sugar from
the beet, the returns depending in great measure
on the disposition that is made of the pulp
In that statement we have revelation Of menace
though the Secretary does call it so. If by fool
ish imperial policy we annex Porto Rico and Cuba
in the Caribbean Sea and add to them the Phil
ippnes, where labor is cheaper STILL and admit the
product of their labor to markets, how can this
fourishing agricultural industry continue thrive:
With raw sugar costing about cents a pound
brought from the Philippines and from the islands OF
the Caribbean Sea- where it has been produced by
what is virtually slave labor the sugar trust the great
sugar refneries continue their operations but
what will become of the American beet grower and
the factories established to refine the product OF
American fields?
| There may be profit in imperialism to somebody
but there it for the American farmer or the
American workingman
