Tho Sugar situation.

bssS SSess Sses0esS"s
The actual holdings Of the Am
erican Sugar Refining company in
the beet sugar plants in Colorado is
not definitely known and it is I'M.
possible at the present time to find
out.
Hsvemyer's agent spent several
weeks in Colorado in February and
March last and made efforts to pur.
chass factories already running, but
had only partial success.
His efforts produced a scare at
first that the intention of the sugar
combine was to buy and then close
up all the Colorado plants.
The snnouh ement was then made
that no such plan was contempIs.
ted and that all the Hsvemeyers
wanted was small interest in each
sugar plant, and an agreement giving
them the handling of the output.
On this basis it ls known an inter
est was acquired in at least three fac.
tories. On the last visit of Mr.. Pen
noyer, who is acting as the Have
meyer agent in the west, he obtained
about third interest in the Fort
Collins beet sugar factory, now
building.
Recently the Denver men who
promoted the Greeley beet sugar fac
tory concluded, after several attemps
of the Havemeyer people to get the
factory, to give up an interest in their
plant to the American Sugar company
but what proportion the sugar com
bine got cannot be ascertained here.
One influential stockholder Of the
company was quoted alfew days ago
as saying the Havemeyers had the
controlling interest but did not pos
sess one half the stock. The Greeley
company's capital is S50O,0OO and it
Is to be increased to 100000. 1t is
admitted that all of the additional
100000 in new stock will be taken
by the American Sugar Refining com
pany.
The Grand Junction factory, which
opened for business on the beet crop
of 1900, but was closed last year on
account of financial difficulties. has
recently been put on its feet by
money secured in New York, it is be-
lieved from the Havemyers, and will
be started again this year.
The other beet sugar factories in
Colorado, namely the Sugar City,
Rocky Ford, Loveland and Eaton,
now building, are still independent
of the sugar combine.
The prospects of the beet sugar
crop in Colorado this year are OK,
cellent. Contracts for acreage Of
from 5000 to 10000 have been Sc
cured for all the plants except that
at Grand junction. - The Pueblo

A RECKLESS PRACTICE.

A news item in another calumn of
this issue of the Graphic tells about
the fining of two young men
for discharging firearms within the
city limits. They needed finng. A dis
charge from the gun passed through
heater and damaged it. barely missing
woman sitting near the stove. The
law should be rigidly enforced against
all who discharge firearms within
is entirely too common, and the pO-
lice should make strenuous efforts to
put an end to it, OF course the of
ficers cannot be everywhere in the
city at the same time. and it would
be impossible for them to catch every
person violating tthe ordinance with
reference to the discharging of fire
arms without help from the citizens.
All such violations should be reported
to the police promptly. Not many
young men and boys will have to bC |
arrested and fined before the others |
who are guilty of violating the fire,
arm ordinance will take hint and
luit very reckless and dangerous
practice.

DIFFER ON THE MESSAGE.

President Roosevefts message, ow.
ing to the fact that it's contents were
foreshadowed in considerable detail,
attracted attention only for the style
in which it was written All persons
in Washington agreed that the presi-
dent could make attractive phrases.
The chapters relating to the trusts and
tariff were alone considered important,
and these We're regarded as being
somewhat tanner than had been ex-
pected. 1t had been presumed that the
president would take stronger stand
in favor of legislation against the
trusts and that he would have more
to say about the agitation throughout
the west for tariff revision. His de
fense of protection was grateful to the
men in congress who feel that highest
duty is to defend the Dingley act
Democratic members of congress
generally pronounced the message in
nocuous in so far as it dealt with live
policies and issues. They said, how
ever, that it was in line with the presi-
don't c cnoHrbnc

number of interviews with leading
members of congress, and they show
wide difference of opinion. the Demo
