INDEPENDENT SUGAR PLANT.
Arkansas Valley Farmers and Capt..
talists Preparing to Build.

tallsts Preparing to Build.
Denver-A Manzanola, Otero county
special to the Denver News Monday
says:
AS direct result of the fight
unitedly made by farmers of the
Arkansas valley against the demand
of the American Beet Sugar Company
and the Holly Sugar Company that the
growers produce beets for $3.50 ton
Manzanola will have sugar factory
owned by the farmers and local capi-
talists.
Directors of the Arkansas Valley
Beet Sugar Manufacturing Company
met today and representative of the
company, now in New York, was in
structed to close with a beet sugar
machinery company for the necessary
plant. The farmers of the valley have
made determined fight against the
$3.50 beet and now that the factory
here is assured they claim victory is
with them.
w. B. Ebbert, who, with Thomas j.
Stanley, had been sent east to nego-
tiate for machinery, returned today and
reported that several firms had been
visited and that good propositions had
been made. Following the report the
directors telegraphed to Stanley tell
ing him to close the deal for the ma
chinery.
The company perfected it's organiza-
tion and j. M. Beatty was elected pres
ident. E. Brewer was made first vice
president, Thomas j. Stanley second
vice president, w. l.. Cloves secretary
and H. B. Dye treasurer.
The company has filed its articles of
tw,1r to-, l.
state and with the county clerk, and
is capitalized for $1,000,00O.
There is now no doubt that the fac
tory will be built and that it will be
ready to handle the crop of the pres
ent year. At meeting of the farmers
it was decided to extend the time on
the contracts which have been signed
by them for beet acreage. That time
expired today, and the farmers have
all decided to stick with the inde
pendent factory.
The farmers do not look upon the
factory here as Manzanola enter
prise. and from Florence to the state
line along the Arkansas valley it is
considered as proposition in which
the entire valley is concerned. They
are positive that the success of this
enterprise. now assured, will mean the
success of all the farmers who grow
beets.
Word has reached here. too. from
the growers of the northern field that
every success is wished for the new
enterprise. Resolutions have been
passed by the farmers in the northern
beet fields. in which the growers of
this valley are urged to accept nothing
less than So per ton for their beets.
The farmers are back Of the new fac
tory, and its promoters say that 1t can
not now fail.
Active work of building the factory
will be commenced at once. The fac
tory is backed by ample capital. and
the farmers say they will get IS beets
from at least one factory this year.

One of the most striking signs Of
this age is the entrance of science into
every department of life. A symbolic
picture of the twentieth century might
represent the spirit of science stretch
ing her hand out over the temples Of

of Chihuahua, in Mexico, has passed a
sanitary law regulating theaters,
churches and other public buildings.
All such buildings must have ample
fire protection. be properly ventilated.
and provide sufficient seats In the
churches 1t has been the custom of
worshipers to sit and kneel on the
floors. This is forbidden by the new
law, which looks to the health of the
people. Old customs are suddenly,
sometimes violently, upset by new
knowledge, but there never was an
age more confident OF It's new knowl-
edge and more competent to produce
the facts than the present age.

remark of President Roosevelt in re-

made the occasion a decidedly more

Marine band in attendance and his mil
itary and naval aides in full uniform.
He said:

would have the young man drink
whisky not only for his stomach's sake.
but to give him nerve, self-reliance,
etc. Here is what DR.. Wiley states
he actually did say on the occasion re-
ferred to:
II said believed the general ef.
feet of alcohol on mankind was wholly
bad; that 1t was bad even in small
quantities.; that II distilled beverages,
such as whisky, brandy and rum, had
any good effects, they were due to the
fact that the aromatic and fragrant
substance therein stimulated the di.
gestive secretions and thus overcome
to a certain extent the bad effect OF
the alcohol which they contained.
II further said that I was, in theory,
prohibitionist, but that there were
practical difficulties in the way of pro.
hibition, and that the better plan would
be to abolish the saloons and that II
people wanted to drink distilled bever-
ages they should do so quietly at their
homes and with their foods and not in
saloons. =. 10 -, .-. ..rr.,gs,,
