This statement shows that Grand Island
made profit per ton of beets of $3.50 on
tonnages of 1856 tons. Norfolk made a
profit of $3.50 per ton on tonnage of
$1,000 tons, and Chino profit of So .O6
per ton on tonnage of Al 1902 tons. The
above figures are exclusive Of the cost OF

nor tons &c cha did in 1898 namely. 81. so

per tons as she did in 1898, namely, $3.50,
instead of $4.25, as estimated above. We
are led to believe that Grand Island will
have 5000 acres of beets offered to her,
so that it would not seem unreasonable to
suppose that we would have $4,000 tons
or more, rather than the. 26,0o0 estimated,
nor that the profit would not be as large
as that of 1885, namely, $3.50, instead Of
$2.75, as estimated. AS to the Oxnard
earnings, it must be borne in mind that
the factory when doubled will have ca
pacity for fully 1000 tons per day (prob-
ably more If pressed), while Chino is sup
posed to be 75O-ton factory. so that the
estimate Of 100000 is conservative,
based upon Chino possibilities. AS to
obtaining the acreage, there is no manner
of question or room for doubt and 1t Is
certainly conservative to estimate the
profit at Oxnard at the same figure as the
profit at Chino, considering the large saw
ing in operating expense which the size
of the factory justifies us in counting upon,
and which the superior richness of the
beets makes more than probable.

Permanent Future.
Regarding the future development and
permanency of the beet sugar industry In
the United States. there can be absolutely
no doubt for the following reasons:
'First-Of the tropical countries which
it is proposed to annex to the United
States, Porto Rico is too small to cut any
figure, and the Philippine islands have not
the necessary elements for the expansion
Of the sugar business sufficiently rapid to
give any concern to those interested in the
production OF sugar from beets in this
country for the next twenty-five years to
come.
"Second-The island of Cuba is so stu
ated that it's sugar industry can rapidly
recover the ground lost during the insur
rection, provided that the labor question,
there can be satisfactorily settled. There
Is, however, no fear that Cuban produce
ton, even under an annexation to the
United States. can in our day expand to
the point where the United States would
become exporters of sugar instead of i'm
pOrters, and hence that protection would
no longer protect. ... r.-.-.
"Third-Greater than all the above as
surances of the permanence of the sugar
industry In this country is the fact that
sugar can be produced cheaper here than
| IL Gall 10 III huIOp0. Llu6 sugar 1uuuSlIy
is after all merely an agricultural one. We
can undersell Europe in the production Of
all other crops, and sugar Is no exception.
The sugar consumed In the civilized world
| consists of three million tons Of cane
sugar grown in the tropics, and five mill.
lion tons Of beet sugar grown on the con-
tinent Of Europe. Therefore, in consid
ering any given sugar enterprise, if it can
meet and overcome the competition of
sugar on the continent of Europe, it Is per-
fectly safe to say that it has a permanent
future.
"Fourth-In addition to all the above,
the main fact Is to find out what the con-
ditions would be under free trade in this
| country This was tested practically by
admitting the raw sugars of the world free
to compete with us in the period from
| 1891 to, 1894 During these three years,
the duty was entirely removed from raw
sugars coming from foreign countries, and
in place of this duty a bounty of 2 cents
per pound was given to the home pro-
ducers. which was paid out Of the national
treasury, until the Mckinley law of 1890
was repealed, and in it's place the Wilson
tariff bill was substituted on the 28th of
August, 1894.
- Price of Sugar. -
1.-THE average prices of granulated sugar
during the years 1891, 1892 and 1893, taken
from Willett & Gray's Journal, which is
the recognized authority in the sugar
world, are as follows: 1s.s

CHOW as to the maintenance expenses.
The maintenance allowed for Chino in 1898

Grand Island about $4,000. You can, I
think, form your own Judgment as to
whether or not the figures have given

that that even with the present prices OF

however, as conservative calculation,
