vested. You would thus keep at home
among your own peopls che S11,0O0,OOO
or Sl2,O0O,0O0 now sent away from your
section each year to pay for the sugar
your people consume. Not only that
but the beet pulp or ~by-product from
the sugar factories, being a most valu-
able feed for all animals, and especially
for cows, would greatly promote the
dairy interests of the northwest. To
work up these beets and produce the
sugar that your northwestern people
now import would require at least forty
five factories of an average capacity of
three hundred tons of beets per twenty
four hours for one hundred days. Each
factory would represent an Investment
of from $250,0O0 to S35O,000, or, at an
average of 100000, would require a
total investment of Sl3,5OO,O00. In other
words, the money your people of the
northwest pay away each year for their
sugar would in a single year pay for all
the factories needed to work up enough
beets to furnish this sugar. N&.
Now, as a man intimately familiar with
the west and northwest and whose early
life was spent in the Centennial state I
am profoundly convinced that it is far
wiser to thus foster the production right
here at home of this great staple Of con
sumption than to foster its production in
Puerto Rico, Cuba or the Philippines.
Even after paying the existing duties
cane sugar sold on the New York mar
ket yields the Puerto Rico planter $50
to $42 net profit an acre over and above
all possible expenses, This is as much
or ever larger profit than our northwest
ern farmers could make on sugar beets,
because they pay good wages and board,
while the Puerto Rican peon is glad to
work for from 10 cents to 80 cents a day,
and lives on 5 cents a day. Remove the
present tariff and 800 to S135 an acre is
added to the Puerto Rican's profits,
while at the same time nipping in the
bud this promising beet industry of the
northwest. You know as well as the
writer that it is this fear of tropical free
trade, of which you would make Puerto
Rico the precedent, that causes capital
to hesitate to embark in the beet sugar
industry. but if you and your party that
dominate the present congress will en-
phatically declare that the American
farmer is to continue to be protected
against free trade competition, then cap
ital will flow into the beet sugar indus
try to the great development and pros
perity of the northwest and of the whole
country. ".r a
1 have said nothing of the enormous
benefit that would accrue to the north
west by paying to its farmers, laborers
and investors the constantly increasing
sums now sent away to pay for the sugar
it consumes. It would add So to $3.50
per capita annually to the wealth or
consuming power of your nearly $780,
600 people in the northwest, compared to
the increase of only so cents per head to
the 100000 Puerto Ricans.

THE FARMER AND SUGAR.

Herbert Myrick, editor of the Orange
Judd Farmer, and chairman of the
League of American Producers, has
written a open letter to Senator Nelson
of Minnesota, who is a member of the
senate committee on Puerto Rico. Mr..
$Myrick takes a stand against the pro-
posed free introduction of Puerto Rican
products to the United States and cites
figures to show that in the three years
il which we had practical free trade
with Puerto Rico the average increase in
wheat -four exported to Puerto Rico was
only 10000 barrels a year. Under the
most favorable free trade conditions the
three years experience demonstrates
that Puerto Rico's import trade from the
United States increased only about so
cents per capita for its million popula-
ton, of which increase 40 cents was for
American farm products, including only
Is cents for breadstufs of all kinds. MI.
Myrick then goes on to say:
Now turn to the northwest Minnesota,
with its population of 100000; Wiscon-
sin, 2,138,000; North Dakota, 235,O00,
and South Dakota, $4,000. The per
capita consumption of sugar in the Unit
ed States is nearly seventy pounds an
nually, but at only sixty pounds each
these people in the northwest consume
nearly $4,000 tons of refined graduated
sugar per annum. At a wholesale price
of four cents a pound, your people of the
northwest consume practically l1,OOO,-
600 worth of sugar. This is more than
twenty-five times Puerto Rico's increased
consumption of all American farm prod
ucts under free trade, and almost one
hundred times as much as her increased
!. consumption of wheat -four. Now, I
contend that it is a far better PROPOSE
tion for northwestern agriculture to pro-
duce this Sl0,000,0O0 or S12,000,OW worth
of sugar within it's own borders than to
kill the beet sugar industry by chasing
after the pitifully small breadstuffs
trade OF Puerto Rico. Or, if we include
Cuba with Puerto Rico, you will see that
the northwest consumes more than twice
as much sugar in value as the two
islands increased their total consumption
of American farm products.
70 produce the sugar your northwest
consumes would require the production
OF nearly 100000 tons of sugar beets, es.
timating each ton of beets to yield 20C
pounds of refined granulated sugar. Al
81 per ton, your farmers in the north.
west would receive nearly $6,000,0O0 an.
nually for this new and profitable crop
and as much more would be paid for
labor, supplies and profits on capital in

value to a large majority OF the people of
the northwest.

That Joseph Barker the convicted muir

which saved him from the gallows.

When asked whether ne thought X the
part of prudence 10 show his qualification
in the presence OF the court before SEN
tence had been passed upon him. Barker
expressed no fears for the result OF that
action. Asked IL he meant to imply that
he was conscious OF having committed
murder in the first degree. the condemned
man grew communicative, and pull

In his cell where he lay. he announced his
intention OF taking a nap.
Offieials at the Jail are convinced that
Barker did not take ground glass or any
other poisonous substance in an attempt
to end his life. and in this they are borne
out by the physician who was summoned
to attend Barker a few minutes after the
latter told his cell mate that he was going
