CUBA DON'T NEED IT.
Senator Burton Defends His Attitude
on the Reciprocity Measure.
rhe Beet Sugar Industry. He Says, Must BE
Protected as Are Other Struggling In
dustries-Denies Charges of
Party Disioyalty.

Washington, June 21.-The repub-
fcan senators held another confer
ence yesterday on the question of
Cuban reciprocity and after three
hours discussion adjourned, sub
without action. Almost all the re-
publican senator's who are in the city
were present.
The meeting had almost concluded
when Senator Burton, of Kansas,
took the floor to make a brief but
impassioned and eloquent speech in
support and defense of the attitude
of the beet sugar republicans. He
took as his text certain remarks
which had been made by Senator
Platt, of Connecticut, at the Wednes-
day evening meeting and by Senator
Foraker at yesterdays meeting. He
spoke especially with reference to
an intimation that the beet sugar
senator's were not loyal to the party.
He said that the press of the coun-
try had presented only one side of
the question. His side, he said, stood
for the support of the most prom
ising, as it was one of the most de-
serving of infant industries. The
beet sugar interest was coming to
the front with rapidity and prom
Use to the future such as had marked
the history of few interests in this
country and he urged that this in
terest should have the same protect
ing care that the republican party
had given to other struggling indus
tries. He said that it was not true
that the beet sugar men were not
willing to extend a helping hand to
the people of Cuba if they needed
help, but he contended that there
was no need for assistance to the
people of that island at this time.
Nor did he believe that if the con-
templated legislation should be en-
acted the Cubans would secure the
benefit. Senator Burton said SEN
ator Platt, OF, Connecticut, in defend
ing the committees action in strik-
ing out the house provision for the
extension of our labor laws to Cuba
had said that Cuban labor is as well
paid as farm labor in Kansas or any
Burton said that if this were true
the Cuban laborer certainly was not
in need of aims from the people of
the United States. He also urged
that if the plantation owners were
able to pay Kansas prices they could
not be in desperate straits, as had
been represented. Nor, he added,
could it be said that the Cuban gov
eminent was in position to ask as
sistance from anyone, for when Gov.
Wood surrendered the reins of gov
eminent at Havana there were $780,
900 in the Cuban treasury and the
government had an assured annual
income of $17,O0o,OO0. His conclusion
was that as neither the government,
the planters nor the Cuban laborers
had any need of the proposed as
sistance it was unfair and unjust
to ask the farmers of this country
to sacrifice their own interests for
the purpose of granting an annuity
of 100000 or $6,OO0,OOO.

The Standard Electric Construction Camp.

We hear from the Standard Electric
Company's pole camp at the Oneida,
that the Sutter Creek electric line.
which has been under construction for
the last six months, was completed last
week. The construction gang is now
engaged in re-constructing the ANA
dor power line running between Sutter
Creek and Amador City, distance of
about two miles. The engineer in
charge expects to have this section
completed in about two weeks. The
crew consists of 20 men. Mr.. Finnegan
is the foreman in charge. After the
completion of the new Amador power
line, the old Sutter Creek line will be
reconstructed. Last Sunday after
noon the construction gang had base
ball game in camp between themselves.
George Baker, one of theiinemen, was
captain OF one nine, and Mike O'Meara
OF the other. After an exciting game,
Bakers team put O'Meara's to rout,
the game ending with the score at IA
to 10. A friendly boxing contest of
five rounds has been arranged to take
place in camp next Sunday, between
George Baker and Mike o Meara. Six
ounce gloves will be used.

At Jackson Brewery.

The Standard Electric Company will
shut off their power from the Jackson
brewery in about two weeks from now,
in order to enable them to place
stronger cross arms on the poles from
which the brewery is supplied with the
current. This operation will probably
take two weeks. In the meantime,
however. the brewery will obtain
motive power from their old gas engine
plant, which they already have on the
premises. With regard to the ice
making plant adjacent to the brewery,
we are authoritatively informed that
the output last season was about 500
tons, of which about 80 tons was sold
for domestic consumption in Jackson
and vicinity. About so tons of ice are
now stored in the brewery ice house
for use during the next few months.
