BEET MEN WANT STABILITY
VIII Not Oppose Cuban Treaty il il
il for Term of Five
Years.

WASHINGTON, jan. 10.-For three days
representatives Of the beet sugar industry
OF Michigan have been in conference in
his city, not only among themselves and
other beet sugar producers from other
states. but also with the Michigan delega-
ton in congress.
Senator Burrows, who last spring opposed
the Cuban legislation then pending, has
been prominent liz the conferences. Today
Senator Burrows had a long interview with
President Roosevelt, during which, 1t is
understood, he indicated to him, that the
Cuban reciprocity treaty now pending in
the senate was not satisfactory to, the
sugar beet interests of his state and that
1t was likely to encounter serious opposi-
tion unless It could be so amended as ia
provide that the concessions made to Cuba
as to tariff rates should remain in force
for five years.
After mature consideration Of the treaty,
the Michigan sugar producers had con-
cluded that the treaty was open to objec-
ton in that it did not insure stability OF
tariff rates for any clearly specified period.
What the producers chiefly desire is sta
billty of rates which would enable them to
put additional capital in their industry
and develop it further with some assur-
ance of success.
The strong intimation is hat unless an
amendment can be made to the pending
treaty fixing the rates between this coun-
try and Cuba for FIVE years, the Michigan
congressional delegation will feel con-
strained to oppose ratification Of the
treaty. In this opposition, it is said, the
Michigan congressman will be Joined by
others representing sugar producing states.
So far as known the president has not
indicated what his attitude might be in
regard to the proposition to amend the
nnndinn treaty

An interesting piano recital was given
during the holidays in Grand Island, and an
Omaha music lover who was present gave
me a program of it the other day with the
remark that he had most heartily enjoyed

brother and sister musicians should receive
notice in The Bee.
As l have every confidence in the gentle

to mention this concert, which was given
by Miss Abigail Willard at the Grand Island
opera house. Her program consisted Of Men

a group Of Chopin numbers, the Rubenstein

Miss Munchoff hit the nail on the head
when she said hat there were hundreds of
great compositions which could be UNDER
stood and enjoyed, such works as have come
from the brains OF Mendelssohn, Schumann,
Schubert, Chopin, List, Brahms, Massenet,
Gounod, old melodious Verdi and hosts OF
others whose names are guideposts in the
streets of music.
In connection with this subject l have a
paragraph clipped from the editorial page
of a Chicago paper which l think l shall
dare to disagree with in next weeks issue
of The Bee, in an article which would be
too long to print in this connection. l want

verses of the heart with some OF the dis
gushing rot which is d~ecomposed today, and

will not contain anything technical. 1t has
