BEET SUGAR
MEN BATTLE
WESTERN REFINERs WILL CAR
RY THEIR WAR INTO THE
u ENEMY's COUNTRY.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 23.-The
Call, owned by John d. Spreckels, and
looked on as the organ of the Spreckels'
beet sugar interests publishes the fol-
lowing:
NEW YORK, Oct 22.-Refned sugar
circles are again seriously menaced by
a trade war which is threatening the
East as o result of an aggressive move-
ment on the part of beet sugar refiner-
les of the West
The Havermeyer sugar trust the
ArbuCkles and the National Company
have apparently come to an amicable
understanding on trade matters ana
they are now joining hands in what
promises to be the most bitter cam
paign yet waged against the beet SUI
gar producers of the West. The latter
this year have thrown a bomb of con-
sternation into the Eastern retiners by
their decision to carry their war right
into the heart of the enemys territory.
II was learned in lower Wall street to-
day that the Western beet men have
decided to begin the shipment of beet
sugar to Atlantic seaboard points. AL
ready $4,000 bags of refined beet sugar
are on their way to this city, the mar
Ike ting of which will mark the first
shot to be fired in the present cams
paign. One lot is being sent by the
Alameda Beet Sugar Company of CAL
ifornia and another consignment of
about 1000 bags has been sent by the
American Beet Sugar Company. This
company is sending it's sugar direct by
rail to this city, While the other will So
by water.
The $4,000 bags of beet sugar will
come into direct competition with the
| cane goods refined by the American
Sugar Refinery Company. Howells and
Arbuckles. The management of these
concerns regard the shipments as a
bold challenge of conflict. Early fig.
ures made today were to the effect tia
beet sugar will be sold here at 4.3O
cents a pound
| President Havemeyer says:
| Il do not care to say anything as t
! the extent of our interest in the bee
sugar industry, or how our acquisition!
We're financed. You know that wher
the increase of S15,000000 in the cap
I italization of our company was made
| last year we were in no way restrict
/ ed as to the manner in which we should
use 1t, but whether we have used som,
of this to purchase beet concerns o.
used other available funds is a matte
of little consequence. The sugar trad,
was never in better shape than it is to
day."

The Water Front was practically
dead today. With the exception of the
Oceanic wharf no work was done. The

nothing was being done. Nobody
but few watchmen were on the va
rious vessels, every thing being tied
up. The steamer j. A. Cummins was
the only boat to sail today. She got

.CENTENARIAN VOTERS

One man who will vote at Waianae
today enjoys the reputation and indeed
the fact of being the oldest voter in the
Territory if not in the states. His name
is Kahoe, and he is one hundred and
eight years old. The C entenarian is
still active and able, walks freely and
has cordial word and smile for every
body. Last election he signed his APP
plication in a flowing hand but this
year Father Time has relaxed the grasp
of his fingers and the old mans auto
graph while distinguishable and show
ing traces of a beautiful handwriting,
was somewhat shaky.

WILCOX DID

Wilcox was trying ito run things"
out in the Seventh precinct of the Fifth
today. About as soon as he had cast
of the Fourth, he went loaping over to
where things were hotter.
The balloting in the Seventh of the
Fifth W as conducted on the Reform
school grounds. The voters entered the
grounds by small gate and came out
by the large carriage entrance A ma
tive man was stationed at the latter
gate, probably to keep the crowds out
of the grounds. He permitted numbers
of natives to enter however. One of
the Republican party workers drove
up in a carriage and started to drive
through the gate. The native guard
said that the man could not come
through without a pass. well where
do l get the pass?' was asked.
Il don't know" was the reply.
well, how is it that you let those
people in without a pass" inquired
the Republican worker. Wilcox was
standing nearby.
Here you keep that gate shut" or
dered the latest member of the Butt
ln' family. Don't you let anybody
get in here unless l say so" continued
Wilcox.
Wilcox thought better of the matter
and Incurred if the visitor was a rep
resentative of the press, and added
that If he was the man could enter.
wilcox soon retired, however, from the
gate to help along his cause in some
other part of the grounds.

BEFORE WE CAN

use them, iron and gold must
first be got out of the ore. The
same principle applies to cod liv-
er oil. It's virtues are not in its
fatty matters; much less in its
sickening taste and smell. No
consumptive, or sufferer from any
other wasting disease, was ever
greatly benefited by the so called
"plain cod liver oil. The shock
it gives to the nerves, the repul-
sion and disgust it e1cites in the
stomach, the outrages it commits
upon the senses of smell and
taste, are enough to spoil any
medicinal potency that may be
in it for the majority of people.
This-to say nothing about its
being indigestible. Yet there
has always been reason to believe
that, among the elements which
form cod liver oil, there ex-
listed curative properties of the
highest value. But it was neces-
sary to separate them from the
nauseating waste material with
which they were combined. This
was successfully accomplished in
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
and IN this effective remedy,
made palatable as honey, we have
the very heart and soul of Pure
Cod Liver Oil, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophos-
phites, Extracts Of Malt and Wild
Cherry. These constitute a tissue
builder, blood purifier, health
remover beyond comparison. Dis
ease yields to it with a complete
ness and rapidity which aston
ishes medical men quite as much
as it delights their patients, In
all wasting conditions, Scrofula
and Blood Disorders, La Grippe,
Chronic Bronchitis, Pulmonary
Affections, etc, it never fails to
relieve and cure. DR.. Louis w.
Bishop says: 81 take pleasure in
saying l have found it a most
efficient preparation, embodying
all of the medicinal properties
of a pure cod liver oil, in a most
palatable form" 1t stands in the
front rank in the march of med
icine. Effective from the first
dose. Sold by all chemists here.
