Sugar Factories Start.

Greeley.-The Greeley, Eaton and
Windsor sugar factories have started
the sugar campaign in the Greeley
wheels of the factories will not stop
running until 100000 tons of beets are
made into sugar and nearly 100000
put in the pockets of the Greeley dis
trict farmers.
For the last ten days the engines of
the factories have been in readiness
and the crew of $50 men selected and
ready for duty. AS usual, the facto-
ries will be run in two shifts. The
gregate s65,000 month, making to-
tai of at least 100000 during the
campaign for labor.
Manager Edgell of the Greeley fac
tory states that indications are that
the sugar contents of the beet will
reach an average of 161a per cent,
thus giving the farmer S5.671a a ton
for his crop. Some fields have al
ready tested 10 per cent. sugar and
few almost 20 per cent.
The yield will average close to 16
tons an acre, and some estimates are
even higher. On the McKelvey farm
in Lone Tree, beets will give a ton
mage from 20 to % tons an acre. and
had not the dry weather and winds of
spring interfered with the stand, beets
on this place would have gone 80
tons.
There is plenty of labor to handle
the crop in the fields, and while farm
ers will pay $40 for pulling and top
ping per acre, they are contemplating
arranging a sliding scale of payment,
based on the tonnage per acre.
Practically all of the beet pulp has
been contracted by the growers for
feeding sheep and cattle and there
promises to be more stock fed in the
county this fall and winter than in
the last three years.
This has been an ideal summer and
fall for the beet crop, which has dem.
onstrated again that it is the most
hardy and dependable crop In the dis
trict. Farmers last year were slow
about contracting to grow beets, but
many say that they are ready to put
in a big acreage for next year.
Including the amounts paid the
farmers for beets, the factory EN-.
ployes, the money paid for coal and
general running expenses OF the three
factories. the Great Western Sugar
Company will put close to $3,000.000
into circulation IN the Greeley dis.
trict during the sugar campaign Of
this season.

Women After Penitentiary Warden.

Denver.-The State Federation of
Woman's Clubs, by accepting and ap-
proving the report of the committee
on state institutions, stands in the po-
sition of making these charges against
Warden T. j. lyman, of the state peni-
tentiary:
That prisoners are not taught
trades as provided by the law.
THAT paroled prisoners are fire.
quently sent away from the peniten-
tiary without being given the money,
clothes and transportation to which
they are entitled by law.
THAT the prison is under political
domination, and that the warden is
Independent of the board of commits
sioners."
Warden lyman makes this flat an
swer:
THE report is unfair and untrue in
every particular, and l challenge the
committee to substantiate a single
one of the charges. The arts and
crafts, the trades, farming, poultry
raising, poultry incubation, scientific
hog, cattle and mule raising, are being
taught to the men in the penitentiary.
Btsides this, we have taught and are
teaching scientific cement and brick
work, and all of the building trades,
and in our schools 165 convicts are
being instructed in everything from
the, alphabet to civil engineering"

In the minds of the baseball public
the coming duel between the Giants

championship has narrowed down to
question of pitchers. This is the
opinion of Connie Mack, and McGraw

gued that hitting will settle the cham

same thing, as the hitting will depen
entirely upon the strength or ths

JUDICIARY RECALL WINS

western Newspaper Union News Service.
San Francisco - Woman Suffrage
has been defeated, and the Initiative
and Referendum and Recall which in
cludes the judiciary, have received
most emphatic endorsement by the
voters of the state.
The enlargement Of the powers of
the State Railroad Commission also
undoubtedly has carried, though by a
smaller majority.
The vote in favor of placing in the
hands of the electors the power of
recalling it's public officials, including
the judges on the bench, was some
whet amazing, even to the friends of
that proposed constitutional amend
ment. San Francisco, which voted
almost two to one against woman suf-
frage, votes more than four to one in
favor of the recall, while the vote for
the initiative and referendum was al
most equally large.
With portion of the state heard
from, the vote stood:
Woman suffrage, for, 37,17O;
against, 1859.
Initiative and referendum, for 50,-
651; against, 1881.
Recall, for, 52,997; against, 1904.
Appointive railroad commission,
for, S9,s21: against, 22,334.
Southern California voted heavily
in favor of granting suffrage to
women, probably by at least 5000.
But in San Francisco and other bay
counties and in the northern citrus
roII. III
cred that the ballot was a dangerous
thing to be placed in the hands of wo-
men, and in some of the counties, not
ably San Francisco, majority was
polled against the proposed amend
ment.
This election carried to a conclu
sion the campaign for reform meas
ures started by Governor Johnson and
the last Legislature, which was over
whelmingly progressive" Republican
Governor Johnson stumped the state
in advocacy of the proposed constitu
tional amendments.
One unique feature of the campaign
was the prominence which the ques-
tion of woman suffrage took. 1t was
thought when the campaign started
that teh recall, with the judiciary in
volved, and the initiative and referen.
DUN would engross public attention.
But the enthusiasm with which the
women of the state entered into the
campaign for equal suffrage practi-
cally made that question Qvershadow
everything else during the closing
days.
Suffragists in Los Angeles became
SO militant in their electioneering
methods in the fashionable West End
and University districts that Capt. j.
]. Bradish. commanding the universi-
ty police station. sent out squads of
patrolmen with instructions to arrest
the women poll workers.
The campaign has been the hardest
fought political contest this state has
ever seen. Throwaways, posters and
banners have been displayed every
where, and for the past week San
Francisco has been the scene of
speechs, rallies and parades, while
prominent women from all quarters
of the United States have sought to
clinch the predicted victory with
eleventh-hour oratory.
