Raising
Sugar Beets.
Valuable Information to Farmers.

Many farmers have raised sugar beets
for the beet sugar factory at st. Louis
Park and nearly all of them wish they
mad planted double the area of land in
nsugar beets. They were successful, raised
goedly crop and received good prices
for their beets. Beet sugar factories will
be established in Michigan, South Dako-
ia and IN Wisconsin. In Michigan alone
eight factories are to be established. The
price paid for sugar beets at the st.
Louis Park factory was $4.O0 per ton for
beets containing 10 to IA per cent. sugar
and 25 cents mole for every per cent of
,. sugar containsd in the beets until 19 per
= cent. were reached. This means $500
per ton. Why should farmers not plant
to 10 acres in beets as trial. If sue
cessful they Will certainly cultivate more,
like in Belle Plaine, where the farmers
cultivated 1000 acres in sugar beets, real
izing from $40 to $74 per acre. The
Minneapolis Times contains description
of the sugar beet industry and this is the
result:
VIM. Hubs, Waconia, 10 acres, gross
$512.64, not $4O4.s1.
~ Aarens Brothers, of Jordan, 9 acres,
gross $4,000, net 462.90.
Carl Bergstrom, of Carver, 5 acres,
grost $332.73, net $2SS.96.
]. H. F. Buckentin, Hamburg, acre,
gross $91.39, net $74.34
A. N. Moran, Eden Prairie, II acres,
gross $197.10, net $164.38.
Frank Schiebe, Golden Valley, 5 acres,
gross $215.O5, pet $197.55.

4 Anton Reinlan, Rowland P. O., ] acre,
s.Apross s30.53, net $29.o3.

to assume large proportions. For partic-

stay in st. Peter Mr.. Schmitz returned
to New Ulpl and became janitor of the
court house. This position he held un-
til February 1st of this year being at
that date substituted hy Gust. Koehler.
It seems that after this time Mr.. Schmitz
was disheartened, and he began to fail
rapidly. Being of the opinion that he
was amply able to fulfill the duties of
janitor, he thought it an injustice to be
removed for political reasons only, as he
claimed to be, and this grief fastened
his death. He was we'll liked and high

funeral was largely attended.

that he did not want wife, and had
only married her because he could
not endure the idea Of anybody else
possessing her. He then disappeared.
Five years have since passed and she
has neither heard of nor seen him.
Consequently she wants a divorce on
the ground of desertion. She ought to
have it and have it quick. Her expe-
rience has doubtless given her a poor
opinion of men, but possibly second
husband would materially improve it.
She should reflect that the meanness
exhibited by the man who deserted
her under such circumstances is I'M
precedented. If there We're any law

after better methods had been demon
strated. At one time there was dis
position to rest all structures on can
non balls deposited in a socket in stone
foundations, the idea being that the
balls would move under the shock Of
the earthquake and relieve the strain
upon the house. But the advice never
became popular, and now the Japanese

Under Control.

Z YELLOW FEVER, though still
" rampant in Key West, seems to
to be well under control else
where in the South. The quarantine
at Key West is rigid and it is believed
that the spread of the Infection from
that point has been checked. The few
cases that have developed in New
Orleans have been isolated Jackson,
Miss. and other infected centers have
succeeded in stamping out the disease.
In fact. such precautions have been
taken to prevent the spread of the
infection that quarantine regulati lions
against New Orleans. the chief center
outside of Key West. are being with
drawn in all the Mississippi gulf coast
towns, and trains are now being run
regularly. The Louisville Courier
Journal says this is the best evidence
that the disease is under control, for
the towns along the gulf coast and in
Mississippi are morbidly, suspicious,
and under the least provocation would
establish the shotgun picket lines,
which absolutely prohibited travel and
trade during 1892 and 1898. Such ar
bitrary proceedings cost the South
100000 to s6O.OOO,000 during those
years, and a third season would prac-
tically bankrupt the affected cities.

The Recessional.

~ HE city of New York is to be
congratulated on the manner in
which it conducted the great
Dewey celebration. 1t was carried out
to the letter without serious hitch or
accident. There were some unpleas-
ant features of minor character, some
jealousies and heartburnings, but these
We're to have been expected. AS a
whole the celebration was a magnifi-
cent success, and if Dewey had any
doubt before of the high place he holds
in the affections of his countrymen. it
was banished. All this pomp and
glory might have turned an ordin-
airy mans head: but Dewey behaved
with composure and dignity and with
out sign Of vainglory. Like Grant,
he is modesty personified.
One significant feature of the dem
onstration is the fact that the specta-
tors took almost as much delight in
himself. They felt that here was an
opportunity to show Schley, too, how
much they thought of him and they
eagerly embraced it. Schley easily held
second place in the hearts of the en-
thusiastic millions who witnessed the
monster historic demonstration. How
1t must have CALLED Sampson and his
little clique.
THE tumult and the shouting dies"
There is still another celebration in
store for Dewey-the city of Washing
ton will hold a demonstration in his
honor. more official in character if less
gorgeous and theatrical than New
Yorks. Dewey will make Washington
his home. He will retire from the serv-
ice and pass the remainder of his days
at the national capital where every
possible courtesy will be shown him by
the nations representatives. The at
tempt to inject him into politics will
doubtless end in failure. The presi-
dency could not add to the glorious
fame he has already acquired. He will
be content to remain what he is, a
modest, unassuming citizen, an ideal
American citizen. Long life to Dewey!

Current Comment.
Rrit.in,s Scheme of Conquest.

From the Boston Advertiser.
The present schemes for building up a
great British empire in Africa. extending
from Cairo to Cape Colony, demand that
the little Independent republics like the
Transvaal and the Orange Free State
shall be annexed as British territory 1t
matters little what excuse is made for
this purpose. 1t is not pleasant thing
for Americans 20 contemplate, but even
in this country there are some Americans
who say that such policy is justifiable,
and there are some clergymen who preach
from American pu'pits justification of
the policy of conquest as a thing ordain-
ed from above

A Scarcity of Ships

~ HERE are not enough ships in
the world. There is already a
scarcity Of vessels to carry the
grain and other ,freights, and the, re-
port that the British government is
about to charter thirty-two British
merchant steamers to convey troops
and military supplies from India to
South Africa. is causing anxiety in
American shipping circles. Whether
these vessels are withdrawn or not it
is quite time that American CONNER
cial interests were turning their at
tention to revival of the American
merchant marine. The Philadelphia
Times notes that the special conditions
which withdrew American capital from
the shipping interests after the war,
because it could be more prof1tably
employed in the internal development
of the country, have passed away. We
are producing wheat. cotton, meat
products and manufactured articles for
export and we have abundant surplus
capital which can be employed in the
construction and navigat ton of Amer
lean steamers sufficient to make us
independent of any European compli-
cation which might withdraw a large
number of steamships from the mer-
chant service. The old argument that
steamships cannot be built cheaply
enough in the United States to COM
pete with those built in foreign ship
yards has in large degree lost its
force. Modern vessels are built of iron
and steel, and we are selling American
locomotives and American steel rails
in England as we'll as in Russia, ia
pan, China and South Africa.

rHE power of the press is again
illustrated in the approval by
President Mckinley of the SEN
tence imposed upon Captain Oberlin M
Carter by the court martial that tried
him. Carter was convicted eighteen
months ago of completely in defraudng
the United States government to the
amount of $1,500.00O. The influence of
powerful friends has protected him
from the sentence so far, and it would
have protected him indefinitely had not
the press. practically as with one ac-
cord, demanded that the president take
action. Public opinion, as formulated
and reflected by the newspapers of the
country, finally forced Mckinley to
move in the natter, just as it compelled
him last summer to eject Alger from
the cabinet. No matter how powerful
the influence in Carriers behalf, the
president dared not rehabilitate him;
neither did he dare delay approving the
sentence of the court any longer His
representation was fast becoming a
public scandal.

pertinent comment that mot least
among the reasons which have actu-

enthusiasm is the general feeling that
his advice and counsel have not been
sought and utilized as they ought to
have been in Philippine matters by
our government. 1t was one among
many mistakes of the present admin
