The Sugar Men Lining Up.

|, The initial movement in the or
ganization of the American sugar in
dustry against adverse Legislation
which menaces the production OF
sugar in the United States, in the
form of reduction in tariff on sugar
importations from the Philippine
Islands, was taken at a meeting OF
| the beet sugar manufacturers OF
Michigan at Bay City, Mich, on Fri
day.
Every manufacturing r'ant in the
state was represented but one and
that one is in harmony with the
movement and it's representative
| failed only by reason Of missing train
connection.
At the meeting the Michigan Beet
Sugar Producers association was or
ganized with Carman n. Smith, of
Bay City, general manager Of the
Michigan Chemical Co., the Lansing
Sugar Co. and the Owosso Sugar Co.
as president; George r. Robinson, of
the st. Louis Sugar Co., vice-presi-
dent, and E. w. Cressey, of the
German-American Sugar Co., Bay
City, secretary.
In the nature of things the Or
ganization is political. 1t will make
determined fight against any and
all legislation calculated to imperil
the American beet sugar industry,
and it will thus oppose the election
of members of congress and dele
gates to the next National Republic
can convention who are not pledged
in that convention to oppose the
nomination for president Of any can
didate who favors any lowering Of
the tariff upon sugar imported from
any foreign country, particularly the
Philippines.
The Philippine menace is regard
ed as the most dangerous and an ag-
gresive campaign will be waged along
that line. The Michigan sugar men
realize that if sugar from those is
hands let into this country free as
is proposed, the beginning of the end
of the American sugar industry is in

BEST ROAD LAWS IN LAND
Strong Measures Relating to
Road Building Enacted.
Advocates of Good Roads Gain Prac-
tically Every Point Sought Be-
fore the Last Legislature.

Good roads legislation by the tenth
legislature is declared by those who have
followed the work of the law makers to
have made the good roads provisions of
Washington second to none OF any state
In the Union. Samuel Lancaster, United
States consulting engineer, department
OF public highways, said recently that no
other state has as complete, satisfactory
and accurately drawn road laws as those
which Washington has just acquired.
The laws, in brief, which have been
added with the close of the session of the
Legislature at Olympia, comprehend the
following : One providing for convict
labor Oh state roads; one authorizing
county commissioners to buy and Oper-
ate quarriee; one appropriating 1926
600 Tor the construction and repair Of
thirteen state roads; one authorizing
county commissioners to expend part OF
the general road and bridge fund for the
Improvement or construction of roads
within the corporate limits of cities and
towns; the state aid law, Obliging the
state to pay one half the cost of perm
anent road construction; one permitting
the levy OF one half mill tax for the
state highway fund; one providing for
the determination of the state highway
commissioner Of the feasibility of con-
structing certain roads.
Speaking on the convict labor law,
Judge Battle, of Seattle, said that prob
ably one-half of the states convicts
would be used in such work, and save the
state enormous sums of money. Out
side of the Southern states, he declared,
few have this law.

state that they can purchase and ship
them to the Sound as cheap as the Yaki

ton, and it is expected there will be an
increase to $50 per ton before another
week. The farmers have been incon-
venienced in bringing their crop to this
city from the Mckee on account of the
bridge being washed out. A few ship
ments are being loaded in the Selah and
shipped direct to the Sound. The deal
ers have been receiving shipments from
Minnesota and the Palouse country for

SALOON FOR LA CROSSE
B. Y. Rainey Granted License
by Commissioners.
Application Is Opposed by Prosecut-
inc Attorney kipp and Com
missioner Mccoy.

After a contest for over two years,
with several petitions and remonstran-
ces, B. 7. Rainey was granted a saloon
license Tuesday at La Crosse by the
matter has been before the board several
times, and has always been strenuously
opposed by Prosecuting Attorney Kipp
and Commissioners W. c. Mccoy, and
when B. +. Sherfey was on the board
we're always able to defeat the granting
OF the license. Tuesday, however, Mr.
Kipp was present and he and Mr.. Mccoy
opposed the granting of the license to
any one on the ground that a majority
of the people around La Crosse did not
wish a saloon. and the town being unin-
cOrpOrated had no proper police protec
ton, and also on the ground that the
county could not afford to grant saloon
licenses even for $1,000. A roll call re-
suited in j. r Rupley and Samuel Ellis
voting to grant the license and W. c.
Mccoy voting against. This is a mat
ter that will create some stir around La
Crosse, as majority Of the people feel
that it does not fill ''lOng felt want"
Since the above was in type the COM
missioners have granted another license
for saloon at La Crosse. 1t never
rains but it pOurs.

CHARGED WITH ASSAULT
Two Austrians Land in the County
Jail From RosaIia.

Two Austrians, who gave the names
OF Joe Miller and John Bubash. were
landed at the sheriff's office from ROsalia
Saturday night, charged by the Justice
OF the peace OF that burg with assault
with deadly weapon with intent to do
great bodily harm, and holding them to
appear before the superior court. 1t
seems that several Austrians got mixed
up in a brawl in front OF a saloon on
Whitman street in Rosalia on Thursday
of last week. and one Mike Sokologo re-
ceived an ugly wound on his right arm,
and the two men brought here are
charged with the crime. They were
asked to furnish $500 bonds each, but
being unable to square themselves to
that amount they were brought here.
As soon as they were landed in Jail a
session OF the kangaroo court was at
once called. and the newcomers we're
fined 81 80 (the sum total in their pos
session at the time) for breaking into
jail after 8 O'Clock and disturbing the
slumbers Of the inmates of that hostelry,
which, under the rules of the kangaroo
court, is serious offense. This money
will be used to buy tobacco and
other necessaries for the kangaroo court.

warded vouchers in payment of their
taxes in due time, it was thought no
more than right that this sum should
be refunded and it was so ordered. In
this connection it should be added that
the county loses nothing, the company
getting the benefit Of the per cent re-
bate. Furthermore, that the treasurer's
office exacted and received the full
amount of the taxes last Monday, the
1st. This is probably the best way out
OF a matter that would have proved
serious to Mr.. Abbott had he been com
PEELED to pay the rebate refunded, and
does no violence to the county.
