Sir: The House Committee Territories has
unanimously determined to prepare the way for
the admission of Oklahoma New Mexico and
Arizona AS to Oklahoma. objection mainly rests
on her unsatisfactory boundaries and her people

gentleman from blame for the accident although
i was admitted that the speed at which he was
driving exceeded the legal limit This IS at least
prima face evidence that compliance with the
strict letter Of that law is rot exacted by its ad-

AUTOMOBILE SPEED.

10 the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir; Referring 10 your comment my letter OF

Fent-ave. and the legal limit Of speed for vehicles
IN New-York streets. did not charge you with in
Justice for stating that the automobiist had ex-
ceeded the legal limit, but for censuring him FOR
doing
Apparently you assume that II is always and IN
svItably a censurable act TO break law which
stands unrepealed on the statute books even
though that law be dead letter in that II IS never
enforced and even though its enforcement would
be an act OF oppression. This assumption. I con-

A FARMERS IDEAS ABOUT

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir glad you take such firm stand in your
paper in dealing full justice to Cuba. While can
not speak for the beet sugar interest in other
States. say in truth that the practical farm
in Broome County nothing whatever for
the beet sugar industry, nor the beet sugar rails
ing. For the first two years a number of
farmers around me tried growing beets. and almost
10 man the one trial was quite enough. They
found it hard laborious work with expense far ex-
ceeding any profit.
Were you TO send a representative here to IN
vestigate matters. think you would find that the
sugar beet raising is almost entirely in the hands
of the Binghamton Sugar Beet Company. To make
sugar beet growing profitable for the farmers the
State bounty should be given to the farmers and
not to the Sugar Beet Company. NJ. Y. PARK

Of entr sucS citizen shall he entitled to rebate
of - per centum OF the duty otherwise payable
of the island of Cuba, thereafter by such citizen

officers of the United States to apprase articles

bates hereunder to cancel and file the surrendered
certificates as vouchers.
Under this plan II will be observed. Cuba gets
the rebate and we get the trade. Our goods and
not our money must pay for Cuban products
With an advantage OF - or 30 per cent ever
other selling markets conditioned upon the
spending Of the price in the United States, there
need be no conundrum as 70 the course of the
commerce.
Upon enactment of the law proposed the relief
70 Cuba would be immediate. Shipments or
articles necessary to her people would at once
go out. Certificates good as cash when pre-
sented with return cargoes would 60 with
them. and our traders would bring back Cuban
products.
Under an ordinary cash rebate OF duty on I'M
ports s4OOO0OOO or S5OOOOOOO annually might
go from us to Cuba. to be spent by her citizens
upon the products OF other countries. Through
the plan here outlined, the contrary, the re-
bate IS conditioned upon extension or the
trade OF the United States. which would bring
those millions in value to our shores exchanged
for our products -.
The fact should not be overlooked that rates
OF rebate may be varied among the several artl-
cIes or import 10 which they are made apphca-
BILE or may be specialized in other respects.
II will also be discovered that the plan indi-
Gated is applicable 10 countries other than Cuba
and well adapted to furnish protection against
adverse trade balances without treaty or the
consent Of other nations. We should be dealing
directly and only with commercial conditions

New Trolley Line Project.

It has been quietly whispered
around for several weeks that the
trolley car line which now con.
meets Wil!lamstown and Parkers-
burg Is to be extended on to this
city at no far distant day. While
there are not as yet no definite
plans formulated, the project Is be-
Ing seriously considered by those
In control of the line In question.
It has been but a few weeks since
the Review made the assertion that
ere many months rolled by Par.
kersburg and Moundsville would
be connected by An electric railway.
Such a venture would be bonanza
for the projectors, and the only
wonder Il that such road has not
been constructed long ago. The
Ohio Valley Is rapidly building up
especially on the West Virginia
side of the river, and with the COM
pletlon of a trolley line referred to.
would iucrease the population
along the line of the road ten fold
In tew months. Let everybody
who Is interested In this important
matter, continue to advocate the
good cause and assist In every pos
sible way and by so doing the de-
sired end is certain to be accom-
plished.
