Beet Sugar In the United States.

Beet sugar factories are now in sue
cessful operation in sixteen states.
Colorado leads all other states en-
gagged in the industry, having sixteen
factories. In 1907 these produced $780,
600 tons of sugar, or enough if it had
been passed around to give all the peo-
pie in the United States four pounds
apiece.
California and Michigan follow Colo
RADIO at a respectful distance in the
race for second place. Michigan has
the same number Of factories as Colo
RADIO, but their product is considerably
smaller. California has only nine
plants. but some Of the latter are very
large. From year to year the produc-
ton Of sugar is about the same in the
two states.
Utah has five factories. and they are
strong producers. idaho and Wiscon-
sin follow with four each. and there
are ten states with one factory each.
The most eastern factory is that at
Lyons, N. z. Hamilton City. CAL. has
the most western factory. Los Alami-
tos, CAL. the most southern and Bill
-lings, Mont. the most northern.
The largest factory in the United
States and one Of the largest in the
world is the one at S%preckels. CAL.
which is able to slice 5000 tons of
beets In a day. Of a hundred carloads
Of thirty tons each.
The oldest successful factory In thu
United States is the one at Alvarado
Cal, which was established in 1875
and has been making beet sugar fol
thirty years.

that the city law is discriminatory IN

SUES BONDING CONCERN
FOR DELAY IN BUILDING
Seeks to Recover Alleged Loss Caused
by Contractor Abandoning
Work

Trial of the suit of the Citizens Sc

American Bonding company of Balti-
more for $4,000 on account of the al
legged failure of contractors to carry
out the terms of a contract for the
erection of the Securities building at
Third and Main streets four years ago,
was begun before Judge Houser of the

The contract was entered into be-
tween the Securities company and the
Henry r. Angelo company in July.
1905, the price agreed on being $40, 900.
The Securities company was indemni-
fed against default by bond of $780,
900, secured by the contractors. The
latter, it was alleged by the owners of
the building, We're responsible for de-
lay in the work, and this resulted in
friction, the contractors abandoning
the labor in December. The building
company filed its suit against the bond
ing company in May 1907. seeking to
recover the loss alleged to have been
sustained by reason of the delay.

ANGLO-ITALIAN ALLIANCE
WORRIES FRENCH JOURNAL

PARIS, May 25.-The international
position of Italy is closely followed
in France, and her attitude as the
friend of England and France and the
ally of Austria naturally draws atten-
ton to the interview of the kings OF
England and Italy at Paia.
The Temps points out that the
Anglo-Italian entente is dictated by
permanent interests, since Italy neces-
sarily must seek the friendship of the
Suez and Cyprus, and remarks that in
1880 an English alliance would have
been best adapted to Italian interests.
England, however remained faithful
to the policy of splendid isolation,
and Italy was drawn to Germany as
being the enemy of France.
Between 1880 and 1890 Anglo-German
relations we're better than Anglo
French, so that Italy was able to carry
on a prudent opportunist policy in the
Mediterranean. The change, however,
in the International situation has made
this policy more difficult. Italy is con-
WINGED, rightly or wrongly, that sud
den change of alliances would mean in
slant war with Austria, and is still
attempting to carry on the traditional
diplomacy of the house of Savoy.
AS for the future the Temps does
not prophesy. There is undoubtedly
some inconsistency between the senti-
ments and engagements of Italy. The
bulk of public opinion is not favorable
to the triple alliance, but the govern
ment has remained favorable and has
not decided to make any change. The
case is certainly difficult, and it is east
ly comprehensive that the kings OF
England and Italy should wish to dis
cuss it in a personal interview. This
does not mean. however that they
have solved the problem and discov-
cred another method than that which
has so far prevailed"

than ten years before the commence
ment of the suits. and that the state

Deny Rights of State
The first of these sections provides
that the state will not sue any per
son in respect to any real property or
the issues or profits thereof by reason
of the right or title of the state to the
same, unless, first, such right or title
shall have accrued within ten years
before any action or other proceeding
for the same is commenced; or, sec
ond, unless the state shall have re-
ceived the rents and profits of such
real property, or part thereof, within
the space of ten years.
Section 31S provides that no action
for the recovery of real property or for
the recovery of the possession thereof,
can be maintained, unless it appears
that the plaintiff, his ancestor, prede-
cessor or grantor. was possessed of the
property in question within five years
