sugar dealers to sell at loss while

The people OF Colorado should
be unit in support OF the beet
sugar industry, which gives so
much promise for the future OF the

They should not yield to the temp
tation to buy cane sugar instead of
the beet product, recognizing that
the more closely they hold the
home market for the local industry
the more firmly will the latter be-
come esta ablished. The cane sugar

Protection for Beet Sugar.

The Denver chamber of com
nerce is right in directing atten-
ton to the fact that the beet sugar
industry is one through which The
farmers of the United States re-
ceive direct benefit from the opera
ton OF the present tariff law, and
that TO repeal the tariff on raw
sugar would be to strike blow at
our agricultural interests.
About the only persons who are
clamoring ior the repeal of the
sugar tariff are the members Of the
cane sugar trust. They want the
tariff on raw sugar removed SO that
they may import the raw material
for their rehneIies at small expense
and then sell the refined product
at whatever price they may be
pleased to make. They have no
love for the people and they are
prompted by no desire to promote
the welfare Of the country.
The motive which prompts the
trust managers to seek the repeal
of the tariff is the same that actu-
ates them in reducing the price of
sugar in territory where American
beet sugar is sold. They want to
crush the beet sugar industry or
cripple it to the extent Of enabling
them to get control of it. They
hope to compel the beet sugar
factories to sell their product at a
loss; but it seems that most of the
manufacturers of beet sugar are
