The Ellensburg dawn. [volume] (Ellensburg, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1905-11-23

HE Spokesman.Review OF Spokane
gives its version of the disposition
OF Washington's share of the
irrigation and recla nation fund:
Within a few days Congressman
Jones has received a telegram from
the secretary of the Interior, which
put a different face on reclamation
projects in central Washington from
that contained in other dispatches.
1t was as follows:
"The statement published in the
Spokane and Portland newspapers to
the effect that the reclamation fund
has been exhausted by projects al
ready approved are wholly unauthor-
lied and without foundation. The re-
stricted fund of Washington has not
been and will not be used elsewhere.
The proposed projects in Washington
are still under consideration"
That the secretary had not taken
any decisive action on the projects
under consideration is evidenced by
the fact that the engineers in the field
are preparing to continue the WORK
that will be necessary before anything
can be done toward commencing
actual construction. 1t is stated by
the engineers that it will be next
summer before construction work can
be commenced, even should the Tie
tan or any of the other projects be ap'
proved.

G.. II. FLUMMERFELT, President Com
mercial Club, Ellensburg, Wash.
Dear Sir: have completed my tour
of the Loveland territory and will go
up to Fort Collins this evening. did
not hear word of dissatisfaction
nong the farmers interviewed today.
The yield of beets around Loveand is
heavier than at LOngmont, and | think
the average will be right around Is or
/ tons. The beet factories certainly
have been the salvation of business
around Loveland; nevertheless, their
business situation, previous to the SUI
gar factory construction. was not as
good as ours at present in Klttitas.
send you the yield of one average
40-acre tract that has been continuous
ly in beets for the last five years: %
y, IS. Il and IA tons respectively. This
l0-acres has just been sold for $3.50
and has ust about doubled in value
since the factory was put in. saw
beets today that would make % tons
per acre and the yield of wheat follow
ing l'eets 500 to 80 bushels per acre.
The soil is not as good as our soil,
only being from five to twelve inches
deep on top of clay with considerable
clay mixture throughout the soil. This
heavy yield of wheat is the result of
beet culture.
have discovered some features of the
questions consider well for US to know,
both from factory as we'll as farmers
standpoint. For instance we must have
good roads for delivery, and we cannot
depend on the roads in Kittitas after
November l.. Furthermore the fac
tory people here seem satisfied if the
beets are delivered at the dump or the
factory provided there are no wet, i'm.
mature or frozen beets in the pile. At
t or they are piled up 10 or - feet deep
| the LOveland superintendent thinks
neither frost or rain will injure them:
but if there are frozen or immature
beets inside tae pile they may heat and
cause considerable loss. | hardly
think there will be any danger of ar
ranging details satisfactorily when the
whole situation is gone over carefully,
provided, Kittitas farmers want the
best paying steady business that has
ever knocked at our doors.
If we can get the acreage inside of a
reasonable haul, E.llensburg will be a
capital place to put the factory own 6
to convenience to water and coal.
Truly truly,

/ Asst week we gave a report from
- the sugar beet growers of Min
ntsOta This week we present
detailed Abatement from the sugar
beet growers of Colora 10:
The American Beet Sugar company
of Rocky Ford, Colo. according to the
Holly Chieftain, has nst published in
terestilg information concerning the
beet crop Of the Arkansas valley.
During the first campaign, which
started October 10, and closed Decem-
Der 8, 1900, the factory sliced 1,G56
tons of beets. The campaign of 1901
was longer, starting October ., and
closed January Is, 1902, and SO, S5l tons
OF beets were sliced, or more than
double tie tonnage of the first year.
When the Rocky Ford factory was
built, in 1899. the owners made
the statement that an acre of beets
could be grown and harvested for $50.
Farmers now say that the estimate W;
conservative and that the cos. genel-
ally does not exceed 80
Farmers have frequently realized
over 500 per acre and large numbers
of them received 500 to 800 an acre.
The following are some of the returns
received by farmers who have grown
beets for the factory:

The official estimate of accessions to
the reclamation fund through public
land sales during the next three fiscal
years is as follows: Fiscal year end
ed June 80 1906, e3,250,000; 1907, g.
900, 600; 1908, $3.50, 900. This would
raise the total fund to S37 OPS, 571,
1t may be surprising to some per-
sons that the total expenditures on
account of federal irrigation up to the
end of the fiscal year 1905, including
all of the expenses of construction,
engineering and administration, were
only 50. 462. 1859. Contracts already
closed will bring these disbursen ent u
up to 81, 200, 900, but even that amount
will not be entirely disbured for up
wards of two years, for the work Will,
in the natural progress, not call Tor
the whole amount before the end OF
that period.
Estimated amounts to be covered
into the treasury to the credit of the
reclamation fund from the sale OF
public lands, and fees and commis-
s;ors in the several states and terri
tories during the fiscal year l9oo'
under the provisions of the act OF
congress approved June H. 1902 are

Chinese Boycott More Than
Commercial Menace
ANTI FOREIGN AGITATION
Cinnamon Have Learned to Read in
the Last Ten Years and All Goods
That Look Like American are Put
Under the Ban.

Shanghai, Sept. 13-The American
boycott in China is already more than
a commercial r7enace. 1t is now con-
sidered by many to be the forerunner
of an anti-foreign agitation. Business
men in Shanghai, who at the begin
ming were inclined to laugh have been
astonished at the manner in which the
propaganda has been promulgated in
the interior.
The movement has now passed en-
tirely out of the hands of the mer-
chants. The larger piece goods, kero-
sene and cigarette wholesalers all sug-
gested that it was time to call halt.
But the agitators are in power. Where
ten years ago there were not more than
a dozen there are today fifty Cinnamon
who read newspapers.
The reports of murders and out
RACES in America nave incensed the
people. They now refuse even to buy
certain kinds of Japanese and Shang-
hal miIled goods because they resemble
the American articles, being afraid that
the merchants will try to dispose OF
soma of their boycotted stock under
another Euise.
The men who encouraged the Scheme
in the beginning are now sufferers
where they had expected to reap {
rich harvest. The American manu-
facturers must be paid for all the goods
/ that have been ordered ahead and i
! is doubtful whether number of th'
! wealthiest men in Shanghai will bt
