Sugar Beets I'm Walla Walln.
Walla Walla Union.

Na1th w aha mon.
Many farmers will plant sugar beet seed
this spring, the crop being promised to
the La Grande factory at "a per ton on
board cars, Walla Walla. This, II is be-
lieved, is a nucleus of what promises to
become a great industry In the valley.
Demonstrate once to the small farmer
that from fifteen to nineteen tons per acre
can be grown, and in two years enough
beets will be grown in this section to sup
port a large factory. The rub comes at
the outset. but when II Is seen that beet
culture gives big returns, every farmer.
TO a greater or less extent, will engage in
the industry. Time and again has the
soil been analysed and found decidedly ia
vorable to the growth of sugar beets, and
climatic conditions could not be better.
Therefore. those who plant beet seed this
season. most of whom have thoroughly
investigated the matter. have no fear OF a
failure. There is plenty of beet land
within n radius of fifteen or twenty miles
from Walla Walia to supply a factory
twice the size of the La Grande manu-
factory.

Political Future of Transvaal.

REVIEW OF Reviews.
There has been no chance for perma-
nent Dutch republic in the Transvaal re-
gion since the development OF the gold
district had in a few brief years resulted
In an alien population, outnumbering the
original Boer element. However great the
provocation, 1t was manifest last fall that
Kruger had entered upon hopeless war,
and by appealing to arms had only made
doubly certain the fate which he desired
to avert. The best thing he could possibly
do now would be to lay down arms and
accept the best terms that he can get.
During the months when the English were
collecting their forces In South Africa and
suffering reverses, Ii was to the interest
of the British generals in the field and the
war office at London to make il appear
that the Boer armies were very large and
formidable. Thus they absurdly exag-
geratet. the numbers of men against them.
Mr.. Cecil Rhodes, in an interview with
Julian Ralph last month, reminded us all
again of the perfectly well known facts
as to the Boer population. and made II
clear that the British generals had
stretched the truth by at least 80 per cent.
In their statements as to the number OF
armed men in the Boer camps. With 5000
or 10000 men from outlying British colo
MES. and 1900, more or less. from British
South Africa. in addition to the troops,
regular and volunteer belonging to the
British army popular, including the sue
cessive bodies of men embarked during the
month, 1t would appear that before May /
Lord Roberts will have under his control
in South Africa a force aggrcgating much
nearer 100000 than 100000.

We made note a few days since of the

sands are richer than those OF Cape
Nome, probably twice as rich. A great
quartz lead skirts the coast a few miles
away from this beach, and the grind OF
the glaciers brings this gold from the reef
to the sea. That is an indication that ten

make a feature of the mining world. The
gold in the sands at Cape Nome must
come also from quartz somewhere in the
interior. AS the area there is Of vastly
greater extent than those further south.
greater reefs may be looked for behind
that coast than behind the lower coast,
and that gives an idea that in a few years
more Alaska will produce more gold than
any other country in the world.
1t is a clear case that the country has
not yet begun to be prospected, and II Is
not impossible that twenty-five years
hence Alaska win be the great gold min
ing state of the Union. Certainly gold is
about the widest distributed metal in the
world. West Australia, South Africa and
then north, clear up under the gates that
open into the Arctic ocean, II is found. II
is possible. too, that across on the Siberian
coast equally great results will be at
tanned. Siberia has long been a famous
mining country. and there surely is no
reason why there should be an abundance
of gold on this side of Boring sea and none
on the other.
The young men who are just coming on
the stage and have a disposition to try
their fortunes mining will surely have ter
ritory enough to work upon.

Der of 5000. and that in those circum-
stances the Brazilian government had no
right to dictate their mode of procedure
but that. If Brazil proposed to claim the
