THE SUGAR INDUSTRY.

Few people in this state are
giving the sugar industry the
thought and consideration it de-
serves. There is no industry
that we conceive of which has
made the remarkable growth the
sugar industry has in our state.
This year it is estimated that
Utah will produce 36,500,0O0
pounds. OF this amount Utah
will not consume more than 30
100000 pounds. The other must
find II market outside.
1t is only II few years ago that
over million dollars was sent
out of this state every year for the
purchase of sugar. This money
is now kept ut home and finds its
way to every business avenue IN
of the state, to say nothing of the
other amount which comes in
through the sale Of that which is
sent out of the state, This in
dustry is making many men rich
and hundreds well-to-do in our
state, and yet what an effort it
took to establish this industry
eleven years ago. We can re-
member when sugar stock was
not worth more than so per cent
To-day it is worth 200 per cent.

of that rugged path by which We came
and of that awful bridge that swings and
sways as il it longed to hurl us to the
water as a prey to the powers of the
deep. We gather up baskets. boxes. kc
daks. and other traps. and once more our
faces are turned toward the canal and
home.
Homeward Bound.
When we reach the spot from which we
had started for the Falls. we find the
ing US. The boy who took toll Is con-
spicuous by his absence. We step aboard:
the chill of evening deepens TO the greater
chill of nightfali. and the heavy wraps
and even furs we scorned to bring with
US are objects of genuine regret The
mysteries Of twilight descend upon US.
Some of the party decide to tramp down

iority determine to stay by the ship. We
draw closer to each other; the boat
creaks and strains. the ropes are cast of.
and we are once more afioat- AS we
sweep down the canal voices are raised in
song and the moon rises and adds her
glory to the sky; she casts her silver light

the more substantial passengers Of the
expedition face the problem of crossing
that awful bridge there is a struggle be-
tween courage or nerve" on one side and
ignominious flight on the other; but We
have not come SO many miles to be put to
rout at the last moment. We take our
courage in one hand. and 1t is sufficiently
small to be so carried. and clutch
the handrail despairingly with the
other. The wag of the party
stands on the further side. after he
has passed triumphantly over. and ex-
plains to us that 'one long step and one
short one. alternately, will break the
strain on the planks." He is quite serious
at last. But. oh. the strain of counting
that "one long and one short step Mid
way over we spy, to the right, singular
appearance caused by an old stump on a
rock. which looks exactly like a huge
black bear sitting on his launches. with
back turned to the bridge. and looking
down the stream.
Like the Ascent and Descent of Pyramids
After the passage is safely made we find
out that our troubles are by no means
over. We follow as best We can winding
path which leads through thickets over
grown with rank weeds. over rocks and
across old planks thrown across abortive
streams; we are hauled up and pushed
down places which remind one of the
ascent and descent of the Pyramids until

woes are forgotten: the merry company is
awed into silence by the rugged grandeur
of the scene. They seat themselves on
the rocks and gaze at the scene spread out
before them. One OF the party stands a
tall and silent figure, silhouetted against
the evening sky 1t is impossible not to
recall the incident of some years age

Boiling Water of the Falls.
The shores across rise. beautiful back

boiling water of the falls and rapids. The
silvery plumes of spray are thrown high
in the air, to be hurled back from those
rocks. but the water. like an athlete.
wrestles with its foe. only to be thrus'
back as by the hand of giant.
From another point we see the sweep
of the rapids, for they are more of the
character of rapids than falls. and that
majestic sweep of water paints upon ones
memory a picture whose beauty is not
soon to be forgotten. 1t is akin to the
savage beauty which makes Niagara SO
famous and so awful.
BY strange trick of fancy, the water
discloses. midway in the stream, the head
