Denver, Nov. ia Republican spec.
cial from Sugar City In Otero county
says that the sugar factory has been
running as smoothly as watch ever
since the opening October 10th. Owing
to improved machinery installed last
summer the extraction Of sacchartne
this year Is 1211a per cent. as compared
with 10 per cent. last year. This Is the
highest percentage Of extraction on rec
ord, and the officials Of the sugar COM
pany are highly elated over their
achievement.
This greatly increased production Is
m embarrassment to the superintend-
ent Of the factory, rs the facilities for
handling and storing the product are
and the sugar u pllink up.

Queen Victoria, when she received at
Windsor the bishops and delegates to
the great convention of the Episcopal
church held in London a year or two
before her death, accorded just the
same amount of distinguished consid-
GRAFTON to the negro race MS to their
white English and American fellow
prelates. When some five years ago
the queen heard Of the arrival In Lon
don Of an old colored nanny from the
free state Of Liberia, who had saved
up her money shilling by shilling for
the purpose OF going to England to
see her majesty, she not only asked
her to visit her Mt Windsor castle, but
even invited her to take a seat on the
sofa beside her during the interview.
The late queen was accustomed to
keep even the greatest statesmen and
grandest ladies' In the land standing

SALISBURY DEFENDS THE WAR
AND SAYS THAT 1T WILL GO ON

London, Nov. 12.-The lord mayors
show took place yesterday and was
more than usually interesting, as there
were q number of new features. Spe-
cial attention WAS paid to the colonies,
which were represented by attractive
cars. The decorations of the streets
were of the customary character. Big
crowds lined the whole route Of the
procession. After the usual reception
at the law courts the procession COM
pleted its tour Of the city and re-
turned to the Guild hall.
The lord mayors banquet at the
Guild hall last night was q spectacu-
lar close of the days festivities. The
historic building was the scene Of a
brilliant pageant, in which modern and
medieval sights were strangely
mingled. A gathering Of 1909 of the
QQst influential citizens Of London, in
ding the heads Of the various gov
fnment departments, gave an oppor-
anity for a loyal demonstration, of
which the government was not slow
to take advantage.
The feature Of the evening was Lord
Saiisbury's speech in response to the
toayt of His Majesty's Ministers"
Referring to the progress of the war in
South Africa, Salisbury said:
ut is pleasant to record that the
peace of the world has been 30 little
disturbed by the events Of the last
two years. Half century ago we
would not have found such n correct
and pacific attitude on the part Of the
great powers. 1t Is a suggestive sign
Of the international amity and under
standing that the cloud of the past
three weeks over the Mediterranean
has SO lightly passed away. Fifty
years ago this would not have been
3d."
Touching upon South African devel-
opment in another part of his speech,
The Meeker herald., 1901-11-16
Lord Salisbury said:

Lord Salisbury said:
II strongly deprecate the spirit of
pessimism SO frequently heard in the
utterances of some of our public men
as to the war in which we are en-
gagged. Unlike the wars Of former
years, no longer does the capture of
the enemy's capital and the dissipa-
ton of his field force constitute
conclusive victory. We are now con-
fronted by system Of guerilla war
fare which must be slowly and eff
fectively stamped out. We are pro-
crossing slowly, perhaps, but steadily.
II cannot take the public wholly into
the confidence Of the government. 1t
would be most imprudent publicly TO
state all we are doing weekly and
monthly at the front, but what en-
phatically declare Ia that, whatever
delays are encountered, these are due
neither to lack of earnestness and
ability on the part Of our generals in
the field, nor-to neglect to comply
with all their demands on the part of
the home government.
1--WE have been subject to much
vague and Indefinite criticism, but our
bitterest opponents have not been able
to point out any tangible defect, any
definite cause OF complaint.
II deeply regret the ravaRes in the
war In the colonies, to which We are
anxious to accord the fullest prac-
ticable measure of self-government.
But we have had neighbors In South
Africa whose conduct for years has
been a menace to stability Of that
section OF our empire. Now we are
engaged in removing this meance and
we are determined to do 1t SO eject
ually that 1t will never require doing
again."
This declaration was received with
cordial but by no means enthusiastic
applause.

SENATOR LODGE WANTS
TO HAVE RECIPROCITY

Boston, Nov. 11.-An exceptional!
large number of members OF the Mid
dlesex club attended the dinner OF thu
club Saturday afternoon. The gather
ing included many of the Massachu
sets delegation in Congress-, state ant
national officers and many prominent
Republicans, Senator Lodge was the
principal speaker. He strongly urged
reciprocity with other countries alons
the lines mentioned in President Nc
Kinley's Buffalo speech, and the up
building of the navy.
Senator Lodge began his address
with a brief allusion to the recent cleo
tons, and then delivered an eloquent
eulogy upon the late President Mchln
lev, He made a lengthy argument FOL
general reciprocity in our commercial
relations.
"To this subject" he said, ut is Ger
tain that most anxious consideration
will be given by President Roosevelt
and by Congress at the ensuing session.
Whether 1t will be deemed best to put
this policy in execution by means OF
~some general legislation equivalent to
n reciprocal arrangement with all the
uJtions Of the earth, or by series OF
separate treaties, 1t Is yet to early to
say"
He said that he considered reciproc-
ity with Cuba as the first and most
important, for political as well as eco
nomical reasons.
He then briefly discussed the reel
procity treaties now pending In the
Senate, and concluded this portion OF
his remarks by saying:
Last we come to the treaty with
France, which Is more important eco
nomically than all the other treaties
put together I should like to see the
treaty made with France. 1t Is a
country with which fain would
strengthen our good relations. re-
gard such treaty as politically ana
economically desirable in a very high
degree"
In conclusion he advocated legisla-
tion which put the American merchant
marine on Al, equality with that OF
other countries the building up of the
navy. He said:
1.-The whole country. 1 think, favors
the building of an Isthmian canal. i
believe, from what little l know, that
we shall have a treaty with England
at the coming session which will re-
move. honofably for both nations,
whatever obstacles now exist to the
building Of the canal In the Clayton
Bulwer treaty. II such q treaty is
submitted to us by the President, there

COL ORADO POINTS WILL GET
LOWER RATES FROM THE COAST

Denver, Nov. 12.-The Interstate
Commerce Commission sat at Denver
for a few hours yesterday to hear COM
plants of the discrimination against
Denver In the matter of freight rates.
The commission some time ago ordered
certain reduction of rates from the Pa
citic coast to Denver. The railroads
did so on many articles. but on 1870
commodities still charged n less rate
from the coast to the Missouri river
than from the Pacific to Denver. Com
plant was made concerning these ex-
ceptiOns and 1t was on these that the
hearing WINS given. At the close of the
session Freight Tariff Manager ]. A.
Monroe Of the Union Pacific said that
the roads would probably grant all the
concessions asked, without whiting for

were objected to. They had found IN
the list commodities that were not ar

rates made by the railroads. His road
