up in 1893, and since that time
has produced, it is stated, about
100000 barrels of oil When
opened the capacity was 400 bar
rels per day and remained so for
years, and it is now doing about
fifty barrels. This is one of the

BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.

West is being heard on the floors
of Congress. Francis Carey, pres
ident of the National Sugar com
pany of Colorado, addressed the
Ways and Means committee in
language which could not be mis-
understood. He said;
my duty as an American citi-
zen compels me to say a most
bitter thing. If this congress
should conclude in their wisdom
to take an industry which will
some day grow to an enormous
magnitude. and choke the life out
il to benefit an alien people, you
cannot expect men of the Anglo
Saxon race to submit to such a
proceeding without single
thought of redress. Mark you,
gentlemen, we will not moan, weep
and wiring our hands with the
readiness and ease of some of our
Latin neighbors, We will face
the bitterness of the inevita BILE, as
Americans always face such situa-
tions, determined to make the best
of it, but | shall say to you, and
the gentlemen from Kansas will
we'll understand my phrasing
'Ossa wattomie Brown is bound 20
give you trouble, though you nail
his ooffin down."
The speaker was frequently in
terrupted in the course of his re-
marks by mem bers of the commit
tee, but he was equal to the oc-
casion and always had good
answer ready for them.
After giving the committee a
detaided account of the inception
of the beet sugar industry in tho
West, Mr.. Carey told them that
the cultivation of sugar beets aided
by irrigation would convert the
arid lands Of this country into a
garden that would blossom like a
rose, He said pointedly that the
beet sugar manufacturers invited
investigation and he hoped that
congress would start one and sum
mon before them other people who
might give them some interesting
information on certain phases of
the sugar situation which at pres
ent were studiously concealed,
This he said WAS thrust at the
sugar trust which is happiest,
when its transactions are under
cover.
There is one thing that the West
can do and should do at once, and
that it get up monster petition
from every town in Colorado, Ne
braska, Utah and California, and
forward it to your representatives
to be presented to congress, pray
ing them to give this beet sugar
industry a fair chance. We car
do this, il nothing more.
