Colorado Honey to the Front.

Not though beet sugar or Rocky
Ford melons alone is the saccharine
fame of Colorado fast extending
throughout the length and breadth
of the United States. The honey Of
the state stands today in every city
in which it is known as the ideal pro-
duct of the industry of the busy lit
tie bees. The market for it is grow.

that it will soon command as high
premium with epicures as do the can.
taloupes of the Arkansas valley, or
the peaches and apples and plums Of
Canon City and Grand Junction.
The sweetness distilled by the bees
from the irrigated alfalfa makes the
purest and best honey in the world,
superior in quality even to that of
the ancient Hymettus and rivaling
of the rose fields of Asia Minor. This
has been known to the ranchmen of
Colorado ever since the first seed Of
the plant was sown, but, until COM
paratively recently, due advantage Of
this fact has not been proftably
taken, the product of the hives hav-
ing been retained for home delecta
ton.
In the last few years, however, the
honey industry has forged forward
with great strides. Last year the
product yielded the farmers 1884, 900
and this year it will be close to $780,
900. This is almost pure profit, for
the hives once established and the
bees set to work, comparatively little
work with them is required. The
consequence is that more and more
attention is being paid to the bust
ness and it was not surprising when
over 200 beekeepers met in state con-
yention here recently and compared
notes.
The honey industry of Colorado
will bear close watching as a source
of great profit to the state and as a

Tarrln Probabilities.

Those who are exercised over the
possible success of the sugar trust
in securing a reduction of the tariff
should stop and consider for mo-
ment the relative chances of both
sides to the controversy. 1t must be
born in mind than any change IN the
tariff must be the result of an act of
Congress in which majority of the
Senate and House of Representatives
must concur and such act must be
approved by President Roosevelt.
It should also be borne in mind
that both houses of Congress are con.
trolled by the republican party, by a
great working majority. 1t should
also be remem bered that the record
of the Republican party for. forty
years has been that of affording
American industries liberal plotec
ton until they are 80 we'll established
that at least the home market can be
supplied by the home product. In
most Of the important industries, the
policy Of the republican party has
been to afford such protection as
would insure American labor the
highest possible wages and a contin-
uance of prosperity. Thus, unless
the republican party repudiates its
record of more than forty years.
standing, and deliberately discrimi-
natas between the sugar beet indus
! try and the hundreds of other pro-
tected industries, which are still re-
ceiving the benefit of high protec
tive tariff, it is not only improbable,
but almost impossible to conceive OF
such radical action being taken
against the industry which promises
SO much, and which has begun to
show it's capacity for development.
Again, the sugar beet industry is
practically the only one protected by
tariff, where the farmer directly or
indirectly shares to any great extent
in the benefits. 1t must be appar
ent, too that any argument which is
adduced in favor of the reduction OF
the sugar tariff, would also apply
with equal force and in most cases
with greater emphasis, to almost any
other protected industry in the
United States. And because any
