the fourth book)-and there, in all reason
the story should close We may be pretty
certain that Lobeira did end it with this
interesting event; but his fat-witted
''redacteurs'' only took a fresh start here
and fell to repeating.
IN the days when great mobiles did not
take the trouble to learn to read and
when their fair ladies were incredibly
ignorant, indoor amusements were at
premium; and the long evenings would
have been dull enough but for the en-
tertainment afforded by the travelling
singers and the professional readers and
story tellers. There were many romances
OF chivalry; every great nation possessed
its cycle of them but the story aof
Amadis led them all. More than any
other book it inspired Ceramics immoro
tai purlesque of Don QuiXote." In fact,
it contained the substance of nearly all
the others. There were captive maidens
to be freed, castles to be stormed, sorcer-
ers and magicians to be encountered
lions and dragons to be met. enchant-
ments and spells to be dissolved. There
were staggering champions and base and
craven pretenders. There were combats
Without end perilous adventures by sea-
and desperate undertakings in the desert.
The story of Amadis proved an mex
hausuble mine of materials for stories:
and it really supplied the stock-in-tr trade
of the StorymakerS of Europe for CEN
turtles. 1t could be indefinitely extended
by a mere change in the order of narra-
tlon-for the stories of chivalry are mere
repetitlonS of few component elements.
All continental Europe unites in giving
to this story a place far above all others
OF its kind. The English are reluctant
to concede that anything could surpass
their 'Morte d'Arthur,'' which Tennyson
extended into the "Idyls of the King
But they have no fair opportunity for
comparing the two as to intrinsic merit,
since the "IdylS" come to them in the
quantity beautiful verse of Tennyson,
While the Amadis is dressed in the Eng
lish of Southey Alas for Lobeira! The
uneXampled success of his work raised
up crowd of redacteurs, and among
them he is likely to lose much of the
honors due to him. OF late there have
been few critics to assert that he never
wrote the book-that there was never a
Portuguese original. Soon they may be
saying that Lobeira never lived. But
what was the original? They do not
say. They make no attempt to give the
source of the story which delighted all
the civilized world. Perhaps some day
the search of scholars will be rewarded.
From some old chest in Spain or Portugal
or Rome a yellow and faded parchment
may be brought to light which will give
the key to the whole mystery; and then
the great magician of romance, the
charmer of generations, will stand Sc
cure upon his pedestal in the hall of
fame.

MOVE OF SUGAR TRUST
In REDUCING PRICES IN MIsSorRI
RIVER MARKET
Is Denounced by President Henry

Rect Sugar Assoc

San FRANCISCO, Oct 5.-Comment-
ing today on the reduction of the nrica
OF sugar in the Missouri market nv the
sugar trust, Henry T. Oxnard, president
Oh the American Beet Sugar association
oehned 1t as move to crush out beet
sugar production in order that the trust
might have no opposition.
If they can succeed in the Missouri
valley" said he, they will then turn
thelr attention to beet factories in Mich
lgan and other sections and by the now
er of concentrated capital crush out
successfully and individually the beet
sugar producers. The trust tries to de-
Ielve the pubic by declaring that the
Deet producers can still make money at
the low price it is trying to ESTABLISH
Ih1s is false, and if it had been true .
then the trust would have tried to es-
tapllsh a still lower price They are
not sacrificing one and one-haIf cent
per pound In the Missouri river markets
TO make price that will still be profit
able to the beet sugar men. But this
particular move on the part of the sugar
trust will fall fat. The beet sugar
factories will not sell their sugar in tho
Missouri river valley at 11kc under the
market when a fraction of that ~ cents
VIII move their sugar to every other
market What the next movement of
the trust will be remains to be seen.
The trust also tries to justify it's
action by insinuating that the beet SUI
gar people have gone out of their right
full sphere in making refined sugar in
stead of raw sugar to be refined by the
trust. Independent beet sugar produce
ers have always made and sold refined
beet sugar. 1t would be putting ones
head in the lions mouth with a ven
geance for beet sugar factory to equip
itself solely for the making of raw su-
gar at prices to be fixed by the trust.
Besides 1T is an economical blunder to
perform in two operations what can be
done as well in one
The movement on the part of the su-
gar trust in selling its refined sugar far
below the cost to it of the raw material
and in the market which is now reached
to some extent by the beet sugar pro-
ducers, cannot but call down on the head
of the trust the condemnation, not only
of the beet sugar producers, but also
of all fair-minded people in the country,
and having done this they have placed
themselves in an exceedingly poor posi-
ton to go before congress and ask for a
perpetuation of their power as refiners,
increase their capital stock to the ex-
tent of s15,OO0,OOO to rivet the control Of
the raw sugar product. In view of
this attitude of the sugar trust the
United States congress can i'll afford TO
reduce the present rate of duty by
reciprocity or other methods which will
have the sure effect of increasing the
trust on the one hand and on the other
