James c. Spencer, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, has received =
copy of the Wilkaukee Sentinel, con-
tanning an interesting account of Ha-

before the Y. NJ. g. a. Weldon said in

The islands are the hub Of the Pa
fic They are the key TO the political
situation Of the Orient Uncle Sam
could better afford to lose one of his
own states than these islands. They
lie directly in the established line Of
trade and are in direct touch with 57O,-
600 600 of people. The group constitutes
the most important spot in the whole
Pacific, and when the Isthmian canal is
completed and the Siberian railroad
in operation the American government
will better appreciate the gem it has
lately acquired
The islands constitute the wealthiest
community in the world. considering
that their total population is but l54,
600 people. The coming industry of the
islands is the raising of pineapples. We
shipped a large quantity of pines to
Cleveland and New York recently and
they were there pronounced TO be equal
to any in the world.
I'VE now nave electric lights and rail-
roads, and one of the most complete
telephone systems in existence. We
have no cable for communication with
the mother country, but we are looking
for action by the government in regard
to a proposed line. We have in use a
wireless telegraph system between the
islands which is of great service.

BEET SUGAR
AND TARIFF

WASHINGTON. December 9-Repre-
sentativeS of beet sugar manufacture
erS from many states are here, and VIII
meet tomorrow morning at the Airing
ton to formulate a protest against low
ering the tariff on Cuban sugar. They
are stror~ foes of reciprocity. a big
delegation from Michigan arrived to-
night, including Governor Bliss, who is
heavily interested in sugar manufac-
turei Benjamin Boutelle. ex-Congress-
man Bradley w. l.. Churchill and Ju-
Illus Stoh, a big brewer.
All these men are beet sugar manu-
facturers. They conferred with Henry
7. OXnard tonight who is looked upon
as the leader in the fight against Cuban
reciprocity so far as sugar is concerned,
OXnard is the only representative of
California interests who has yet ar
rived.
I'VE are out and out against any re-
duction in the Cuban tariff" said one of
he Michigan men. "All the beet-sugar
interests in this country are a unit on
this. We claim the protection afforded
TO infant industries, according to Re-
publican policy 1t is less than five
years since we began production in
Michigan, yet we are second to Cali
fOrnia. We have seventeen factories,
whose average output in 500 barrels OF
refined sugar for 100 days a years"
I'VE have been told" added the
Michigan man, by our Senators that
they are in favor of a mild reduction in
the tariff against Cuban sugar. They
say it cannot be avoided, because Cen
eral Wood has made such a fight for
reciprocity. But it is our policy to fight
against any reduction and to accept as
small one as we must"
Henry T. OXnard has had conferences
with the California Senator'S but both
sides are non-cOmmittal, except that
OXnard is outspoken in supporting OPP
position to reducing the Cuban tariff.
