Prior. to 1S71-2 the worlds produc-
ton Of beet sugar had never reached
1000. 900 tons; In the present year 1t
IL. according to latest estimates. b.61o.-
900 tons. while the cane sugar crop,
which in 1872 was 1888. 900 tons. is in
the present year 2,904.000 tons. Thus
cane-sugar production bas scarcely
doubled during the period under con-
sideration, while that from beets has
more than quintupled. Meantime the
price has fallen more than one-half
the average cost in foreign countries OF
all sugar imported into the United
States In the fiscal year 1872 being 2.s7
cents per pound. and in 1899 2.3s cents
per pound. No instance of the worlds
production of foodstuffs has been more
rapid or striking than that with refer.
ence to beet sugar. In 1S54-5 the total
beet-sugar crop of the world was but
49,, 900 tons: in 1Ss4-5 1t was 2.545, ,000
tons; in 1s94-5. 4.792.793 tons. and In
1ss9-1s00, 5.510.000 tons. In 1Sb4-6
beet sugar formed 10 per cent Of the
worlds total sugar crop. and in 1899
1900 1t formed 66 per cent. Thus the
sugar-producing area of the world has
in less than half-century been shifted
from the tropics northward. and the
farmer Of the temperate zone, through
the aid of science in the remarkable
Improvement Of a plant. has success
fully competed with the low-priced
labor OF the tropics and has also re-
duced by one-half the cost of the ar
ticle produced.

THE VICE PRESIDENCY.

In n year when the nominations for
President are both practically made in
advance, more interest than usual at
inches to the nominations for the vice.
presidency, and there Is more discus
sion than usual MS to the proper men
to receive Il honor from their respec-
tive organizations. On the Republican
side, II Vice President Hobart had
lived, there would probably have been
no more dissent from his re-
nomination than from Mr.. Nc
Kinley's; but now that he is
gone, there is likely to be keen
struggle for the honor. The difficulty
is likely to be In the embarrassment OF
riches, for the general feeling is un-
doubtedly that the Republican ticket
will be elected next fall.
On. the Democratic side. the situa-
uation is perhaps even more interesting
than on the Republican side. No men,
ton is made Of Mr.. Sewall, who was
the Democratic candidate in 1896, or
Of Mr.. Tom Watson, who was the Pop
ulist candidate. or the remaining
possibilities, the man who received the
largest number of votes on the first
ballot for vice president In the Chica-
go convention In 1896, Mr.. Sibley, is
now mathematical because he has
kicked against the kickers, recognizes
existing facts. and is an avowed ex-
pansionist. Mr.. Bland, who received
more votes than Mr.. Sewall ON the
first ballot In the Chicago convention,
is dead; Mr.. George Fred Williams OF
Massachusetts is hardly available; and
Mr.. John n. Mclean of Ohio has since
been beaten so badly for governor of
Ohio that his name is not likely to be
seriously considered. This leaves the
field free for new material. but where
that material is to come from is not
easy to see Mr.. Bryan being a west
ern man, the precedents favor the nom-
nation of running mate" from the
East; but all the eastern states are SO
overwhelmingly Republican now that
the hope of carrying any one of them
by putting up a "favorite son" is
VI 4>tn ioth hao
hopes. but his present prospects are
not excellent. Mr.. Belmont Of New
York has been mentioned" but the
nomination Of man for the sake OF
his barrel would be as ridiculous as
Sewall's nomination in 1896; and be
sides, the naming of such a man would
be likely to ALLEVIATE the Popuiists,
whose help rs badly needed next fall.
If Mr.. Bryan would indicate clearly
his preference, the vice presidential
candidate to run with him could be
named by him; but Mr.. Bryan is not
likely to commit himself so far. and as
n good politician may prefer to leave
that nomination to the convention.
Perhaps after all II may be Bryan and
Hogg.

A Southern Expan.ion,.,. I.

"T will vote for the retention of

Filipino Home Rule.

"If any Filipino" says Prof. Wor-
cester, said among Fillpinos what Is
said against retaining the islands In
our national congress, the majority
without ado, would take that man out
and shoot him. That's how they
treat opposition. And because of that
they conclude that the people in this
country who are supporting them must
be In the majority. for they cannot un-
derstand how persons not In the major
ity should be permitted to utter such
views and live"
To Imagine what kind OF govern
ment these Filipinos would have If left
TO themselves we may picture William
]. Bryan taken out and shot after his
defeat for the presidency by Major
Mckinley. That is what would be
done to the defeated candidate II Lu-
zon We're republic and Aguinaldo
should be elected president after n Sc
we're contest. Tolerance is the only
sound basis of Republican institutions.
SO long as the Filipinos are what they
are. any independent government. set
up In the islands would be nothing
more nor less than the worst sort of a
military despotism.-Nebraska State

GREAT FIRE IN ST. LOUIS.
Ono Fireman Killed and Several Injured
Loss of 81 100000.

st. Louis, Feb. 4.-Property to the
estimated value of $1.50O,OOO was
burned to-day, the greater part of four
blocks of buildings and their contents
between Third and Sixth streets and
Franklin avenue and Morgan street, in
the heart of the retail section, being de-
stroyed.
One fireman was killed, nine other
members of the fire department were
injured more or less seriously, and five
or six citizens slightly hurt. None of
the injured Will die as far as known to-
night.
The fire broke out at o o'clock in the
five-story brick building Mt Broadway
and Franklin avenue, occupied by the
dry goods firm of Penny & Gentles,
and In few minutes enveloped the en-
tire structure. Sparks and brands were
blown in every direction by n strong
northwest wind, and the destruction of
adjoining property was threatened. A
general alarm was turned in and soon
every engine in the city was at the
scene or on the way there.
On the south of Penny & Gentles' the
flames communicated with the build
ings occupied by Schaper Brothers, dry
goods, and the Famous dry goods store.
1t was not long before the upper
floors and walls of the building op-
posite Penny & Gentles on Broadway
began to fall. Casualties to firemen
were numerous. When the walls of
Deere Brothers and 1O-cent store col
lapsed, several members of engine COM
pany No. IL were in the building. -Four
firemen were covered by the debris, and
1t was several hours before they could
be taken out
John Judge, foreman of No. IL, was
wedged in with debris. Across his feet
lay the body of Mappes, but with n
cool head he directed the efforts of his
comrades in their work of rescue
When he was finally removed he was
taken to the hospital in an ambulance,
where several others of the injured had
been removed.
From Broadway the flames ate their
way through to number of three and
four-story structures occupied by num-
erous firms In various lines of business.
These We're soon on fire from top to
bottom, and were gutted. Heroic ef-
forts to keep the flames from the build
ing on the corner of Fourth and Frank
lin avenues, occupied by the German
American bank, were successful and
this and two buildings adjoining on
the south were saved.
Across on Fourth avenue and extend
ing through to Third avenue were a
row of old buildings, which were swept
away.

HOME RULE FOR FILIPINos.
Report of tho Commission Favors Such q
Course.


Washington, Feb. 3.-The report of
the Philippines Commission, as sub
mitted to the President. has been made
public.
The commission believes 1t would be
safe and eXpedient and desirable to
grant to the inhabitants of the archi-
pelago home rule In local affairs. The
towns should enjoy the rights and
privileges of town in the territories of
the United States. The provinces
should be turned into counties, with
the same functions as counties in the
United States. This system might be
applied TO Luzon and the Viscaynn is
land at once. 1t is intended that the
Filipinos shall govern towns and coun-
ties by self-elected officers, subject to
general laws.
The suffrage should be restricted by
educational or property qualifications,
or both
small body of American officials of
great ability and integrity should be
appointed to advise the town and coun-
ty officials In the discharge of their du-
ties. One commissioner for each 2SO
natives might suffice.
The commission advocates a second
class territorial government for the
archipelago. in which only portion OF
the legislative should be chosen by the
Filipinos
Filipinos should be given preference
In Office when they will do as well snd
the merit system should be ndopfed.
The finances should be managed for
the benefit of the islands. The scheme
OF government should be put into effect
as soon as possible.

SOLDIERS WIDOWS MEET.
Wife of General Lawton and Mother of
Major Logan Faint In Each Others Arms.

Chicago, Feb. 5.-The funeral train
bearing the bodies of Major General
Lawton. Major John A. Logan, and
Major Il. l.. Armstrong, arrived here
from the Pacific coast at o o'clock to-
night. Awaiting the train were Mrs.
John A. Logan, Major Logan's moth
er; Charles L. Wilson, secretary of
Governor Mount of Indiana, represent
ing the state In receiving General Law
toms body, and several local commit
tees.
Mrs. Logan, followed by the escort
of sixteen men from the Seventh ILL
nois infantry, was one of the first to
enter the sleeping car in which was the
widow of General Lawton.
Mrs. Lawton was comforting her
young son, Manley. when Mrs. Logan
appeared. There was a moment of 81
lence and suspense. Then the two be-
reaved women, overcome by emotion.
embraced and mingled their tears.
Finally Mrs. Logan said:
MY dear child, my woe is yours: we
have given that which we loved best
to our country. God is the Judge. and
before him we must bow and say
Thy will be DONE"
Mrs. Lawton was unable to speak
She was violently shaken by her grief.
and as the two women wept together
their emotions proved too strong and
they tainted simultaneously. Captain
King and his orderly resuscitated
them. Then entered Mrs. Samuel Cul-
bertson of Louisville, Mrs. Lawton's
sister, and her husband, and Miss Fan
nile Craig, another sister, also Of Louis
