conditions. The declining national sentiment should be replaced by movement for the common defense of the central European states against the American trusts which are moving to conquer the foreign markets more surely than they could be conquered by attleships. The American balance of trade has reached an unparalleled figure. It was serious question if the present political units of central Eu- rope were strong enough to make an effective defense, taking into account the physical conditions. The present shifting of the center of gravity of the worlds forces would create three great units-China, Russia and Amer ica. When China was equipped with railroads the people would find that she had the most capable merchants and the cheapest labor. Russia would have the largest army and be the great est peasant state. European capital would flow to the United States and would be an important increase of her economic prosperity. Of the three the United States had decidedly the lead. Its policy was commercial az gression, beyond doubt, and states like the American union and Russia had gained far more in the way of the mo- Utilization of their powers from the construction of railroads than such countries aA Germany and FrancS.

MUCH BEET SUGAR.
Rapid Development of This Indus
 try in the United States.
Growing Belief That We win shortly Be Able to Produce the $1OO, ,OOO,- 900 Worth of Sugar Which We
 Now Import Annually.

The growing belief that the United States will shortly be able to produce from beets the $1OO 100000 worth of sugar which her people now annually import seems to be shared by British Consul Wyndham, who has given the subject close attention and reported upon it to his government. The follow ing is an extract from his report which has just reached the treasury bureau of statistics:
 "The production of beet sugar in the United States is rapidly increasing, and in the Chicago consular districts there are four factories in the state of Illinois, three in Nebraska and three in Colorado; those in Nebraska and Colorado belong to the American Beet Sugar company, and are at Grand Junc- ton, Rocky Ford and Sugar City, and when fully completed will employ thousands of hands.
 Statistics indicate that the United States consumes more sugar than any other nation, or approximately one quarter of the whole of the worlds product. The conditions of soil, eli mate and other advantages are quite as good in the United States, and es- pecia,ly in Colorado, Nebraska and H. linois, for the development of the beet as in any of the countries of Europe or Asia. The worlds production and con- sumption of sugar is now about $780, 900 tons per annum, two-thirds of which is produced from beet and only one.third from cane. whilst the normal consumption is estimated as increas- ing at the rate of 25o,OOO tons yearly.
 "The success attending the cultiva- tion of sugar beet in this district has proved that it may be made profitable and successful investment. A large factory has been built at Rocky Ford. Col, which cost 100000 to build and equip. It is proposed to have it ready for the crop of the coming season. To supply it the farmers in the vicinity have contracted to grow 5000 acres of beets year for five years. From tests made they estimate their beets will yield Is to IS per cent. of sugar. The factory, when running at its full ca pacity, will consume daily 1000 tons of beets, which it will convert into about 100 tons of refined sugar of the highest purity. The beets reach maturity with a high percentage, and seldom go be- low IS per cent; 12 per cent. is taken as the basis of buying beets at the fac tory.
 "A general estimate of the cost of construction. cost of operation and general results to be counted upon of beet sugar factories in this district, as taken from the- Rocky Ford plant. places the general average of sugar in the beets at 12 per cent. So far as the Arkansas valley in Colorado is con cerned, this percentage is being large ly exceeded; the minimum percentage of sugar being IA per cent. while the maximum has reached 23 per cent, with coefiicient of purity ranging from 30 to 95 per cent"

The Matter of JOIts.

The Massachusetts Supreme Court
has decided that street car jolts do not
prove contributory negligence on the
part of the motorman. This seems to
leave the field wide open for the jolters.
The motorman if of a revengeful or
playful disposition can jolt the very
socks off his accomplishing load-for
what's the good of complaining in the
face of the Massachusetts precedent?
Some time ago a passenger on the
Wade Park line happened to let his
gaze wander to the heaving floor of
the car.
"Sir," he said between jolts to the
man opposite him, your false teeth ap-
pear to have been jolted out of your

"Sir," said the unfortunate passenger
as he took a fresh grip on the edge of

LUCKY WAITER
Employee Of New York Hotel Profits by
Tips Given by Huntington

New York, Mar. adam Drummer,
head waiter at the Holland House,
during the life of Coils P Huntington,
looked after the wants of the railroad
magnate when he was a guest at the
Holland, and won his good will. Hunt
ington gave Adams straight tips ON
the stock market and the waiter great
ly profited thereby. When Huntington
died Adam mourned. Fortune smiled
again when Charles M. Schwab, presi-
dent of the steel trust, came as a guest
to the hotel. Schwab took a fancy to
Adam, and expressed opinions as the
way the steel cat was going to jump.
The president was astonished one day
recently when he discovered some one
by the name of Drummer was buying
steel stock, and investigation found
Drummer was the attentive Adam of
the Holland.

he put $4,000 into the stock 1 spoke
about, and the fun of the thing is
that he got in close to the bottom, bet
ter, in fact, than the others got theirs"
AS result of the kindly interest of
Huntington and Schwab, Adam is now
said to be worth $150,OOO, but he still
works at the Holland House, and is
just as attentive to guests as ever.

Fresh Fruit Prospects

Delays in transit have cost Califor-
MIA shippers a. large sum already. In
numerous instances cars have been
delayed from four to ten days, with
the market dropping all the time, and
the price realized when they did ar
rive much lower than it would have
been when they were actually lue.
More than a dozen cars shipped 10 one
firm were affected in this way. Com
plants do not seem to make any diff
ference. The delays still continue.
One effect is to take the bloom off the
fruit, SO it doesn't appear as fresh as
when it comes through on time.
Eleven days is about the average speed
provided there are no stops, but most
oranges now arriving are from twelve
to twenty days on the road. Some are
entirely spoiled while others do not
show up well. The six-day service de-
manded by fresh fruit growers in CAL
ifornia meets the approval of all re-
.ceivers. The shortened service would
greatly facilitate business, and might
possibly make the difference between
profit and loss on a good many ar
ticles. York Commercial.

Dewet Gives the British a Good Hunt

London, March General Dewet
lost heavily in men and stores by his
incursion into Cape Colony, but he
seems to have made a clever escape
with the bulk of his commando. APP
parently Commandant Hertzog crossed
the Orange river with him.
General Hamilton who was pursu-
ing, heard that General Dewet was sur
rounded at Phillipstown, northwest of
Colesburg. On arriving there he found
the Beers had not been at Phillips
town at all, but had doubled back
and were struggling across the river
at Colesburg. Apparently this is an
other instance of defective intelligence
regarding the doings of the Beers.
The Daily Telegraph has a dispatch
from Colesburg, dated yesterday,
which says:
"Our numerous columns are still
hunting for Dewet. This place is in
a hubbub, and the troops are march
ing off in various directions to press
the pursuit further"
Colesburg, Cape Colony, March l.
Fifteen hundred Beers with whom, it
is alleged, were General Dewet and
former President Steyn, found a spot
at Liliefontein, near Colesburg bridge,
where the Orange river widens and the
current is slow, and they all crossed
yesterday, both men and horses, by
swimming.

Three-Fourths of Water Saved

The one great point made by Mr..
Stiles in his report on sub-irrigation,
is the saving of at least three-fourths
of the water by this new system. The
statement is rather under than over
the mark, beyond doubt. Indeed, he
says that fully seven-eights of the wat
er is wasted by evaporation by any
system of surface furrow or basin If
rigation, and my own experience on
the ranch near Long Beach during the
past season leads me to believe that
by shallow irrigation all the seven
Fights of the water is wasted.
Readers will at once perceive that by
deep and gradual sub-irrigation eight
acres can be better cared for than one
now is by the common method of shall
low surface irrigation. In other words
the water now available for irrigating
one acre by the shallow or surface
method will irrigate seven acres more
by deep or sub-irrigation as practiced
and so ably commended by Mr.. Stiles.
Hence, not only vastly superior re-
suits will follow the Stiles method,
but the area of irrigated land may be
increased seven fold, if it Is available,
for the present supply of water will
reclaim it and maintain it.
Even if but one-half of the water
now used, or rather wasted, by the
present system of shallow or surface
irrigation can be saved and made far
more effective by deep sub-irrigation,
it follows as a matter of course that
double the number of acres of oranges,
lemons and other fruits dependent up
on irrigation can be brought under Gull
tivation to. much better advantage by
deep or sub-irrigation if suitable land
can be found for the purpose, without
any increase in the water supply. In
any event, very superior crops will be
raised with less than half the water
now used.

The Red Semsch Hop

Much interest will no doubt follow
the experiments that will follow the
introduction of the Bohemian hop in
to Southern California. The Times
has in charge the propagation of roots
from about twenty-five plants received
from Secretary Wilson in January.
The variety is known as the Red
Semsch. 1t gives a much larger yield
than any of the odd varieties; in fact,
is said by the Consul who sent it, to
be the most prolific of all the fine
kinds. The plants produces the best
quality of hops when grown in a yell
low clay siol, but succeeds well even
where the alluvium prevails and hu-
mus is abundant. The cultivation of
this plant is exceedingly profitable in
the north, where the conditions are ia
vorable, and 1 hope the growers in
that part of the state will keep an eye
out for some of the new plants a year
hence.
In curing lemons great care must be
taken to keep the oil cells of the rind
from damage. One of the most sue
cessful curers will not allow the fruit
to be brushed, it can only be rubbed
with a damp sponge. California Gull

Eminence HonOred

The world has always honored emf
nence. At first it was the strong man,
then fighters, generals and kings. In
later centuries honors came to poets,
philosophers, painters, sculptors, his
torians and statesmen. In time great
inventors and scientific discoveries
found places of honor among the great
ones. The time draws near when the
first rank will be accorded to men of
great scientific attainments in develop
ing and perfecting products of the soil
and in breeding better herds and fowls.
We have learned already the propriety
of honoring eminence in medicine, sur
gerry, engineering, electricity, ship
building, mining, transportion, and
armament and otter reward such emil
nence. with great wealth; and we have
even applauded the saying that he who
makes two blades of grass grow where
one grew before is a benefactor of the
race. 1t will not be long now till we
know how to honor and reward him
who finds way to increase five or
ten fold the value and relish of the
product of the orchard and farm.

EARL FRUIT DEAL IS CONsUMMATED
Sacramento Men Elected to Directorate at
Meeting in Los Angeles .<

The Earl Fruit company deal is
consummated, having been brought to
close in this city Saturday night.
Mr.. Earl has disposed of his interests
in the Fruit company, as he has also
retired from the Continental Fruit EX-
press. 1t is claimed by those who are
familiar with the details of the trans
action, that he steps out of active bust
ness with a cool million in his pock-
cts, the profits of active participation
in fruit growing, shipping and trans
portation since the days when the in
dustry was of trifling importance.
He is succeeded by men who have
great capital, and who have been iden-
titled with large interests in Northern
California. The personnel of the new
company is not made public in full,
but the new directors of the Earl Fruit
company give some light on the char
acter it will assume in the future. This
directorate elected in Los Angeles Fri
day evening, consists of VIM. E. Ger
Der, cashier of the California State
Bank at Sacramento; Hon. Fred Cox,
president of the same company; Cal
vim w. Clark, formerly extensively en-
gagged in the cattle business; Adolph
IlCllul Ol, lOlhSlly d WuOlSSdlc DuICA-
er and extensive land owner in the San
Joaquin valley; and George B. Katz-
enstein, formerly treasurer of the Earl
Fruit company and for years widely
known througout the state as high
official of various fraternal organiza-
tions.
The new men of the Earl Fruit COM
pany have been associated with the
prime movers of several colonization
projects and large industrial affairs
in the Sacramento valley, and are cred
tied with possessing several millions
of dollars among them.
The question of relationship of the
new Earl. Fruit company to the Porter
Fruit company or to the car lines is
raised in many quarters, but the new
men deny any utilization either with
other fruit companies or car lines, and
about the only basis on which suspi-
cions are based is the sale of the Earl
car lines to the Armours, who have
long been considered especially friend
ly to the Porter Fruit company, Mr..
Earl's principle opponent in the de-
ciduous fruit trade.

BROTHERS TRADE THEIR FAMILIE!
Exchange Wives and Children With a
Bonus

Middletown, N. Y, March 5.-John
and Eli Reddiker, brothers, living near
Cragomoor (Sams Point, have traded
wives and families. The men are small
farmers and live but a short distance
apart, their father having divided his
farm between them. John is about
thirty-five years of age and Eli perhaps
thirty-two.
The deal in wives and families was
the result of bantering proposition
made by John several months ago,
while he and his wife were spending
an evening at Ellis. The wives took
part in the discussion and the propo-
sition was laughed at as first-class
joke. The subject was brought up
again and again at subsequent meet
ings of the families, and every time it
was discussed the idea seemed to grow
in favor with all parties concerned,
and that which was begun in jest
changed to earnest
John had two children, boy of five
and a girl of three years, and Eli but
one, boy about three years old, and
when it came to, arranging terms for
the deal Eli insisted since the wives
were to take the children, he ought to
have something to boot to make up for
assuming the care and support of the
extra child. Eli won out on this prop
osition and demanded more boot" be-
sides the cows, since his wife was sew
eral years younger and much more
comedy than his brothers.
Mrs. John did not take kindly to this
demand, saying that it was poor way
to begin life together to cast reflec-
lions on her age and attractiveness,
but Eli insisted that youth and good
looks ought to count in wife dicker
as well as in horse trade. John
offered a horse well along in years
to even things up. Eli demanded a
wagon as well, and when this was
thrown in the. deal was made and the
wives and children changed abodes.

Fight With Natives

Tacloban, Island of Leyte, Mar. 2
Lieutenant Steele, with twenty men

North of a line drawn from Dulag

tory. Few rebels are left in that
district. Schols have been established
in that district, English is taught, bust
ness has been resumed, the lands are

cradle ship building. South of this
line, however, the garrison is INSULT

of rebels, and the real work of the
American occupation is just beginning.
