BIG PROFIT IN
SUGAR BEETS

Secretary Jacobs, of the Chamber of
Commerce, is making an effort to in
crease the demand for sugar made at
Fallon and has received letter of
appreciation from the Nevada Sugar
company of that place The follow
ing extract from the letter will be of
special interest in view of the fact
that a great area of land was planted
In sugar beets at Lovelock this season
and farmers in other parts of Hum
boldt county are becoming interest
ed in the mater:
In regard to the production of beets
per acre, depends somewhat on the
KIND of soil, the water condition and
the care given to the beets in planting
and cultivating. For instance, this
season in the valley around Fallon it
runs IL tons per acre. But we had one
farmer who had twenty and one-half
acres planted and got 21 tons. His
gross receipts We're $2,347.52. We
have another party who had about
thirty-two acres. He expects to get
not not less than twenty tons per
acre. There is another party who had
of an acre planted, actual measure
ments, whose gross receipt is $165.
There are number of others who
have large yields, bnt there are some
who will not obtain that much. This
brings the average down to twelve.
The farmers who had the heavy yield
per acre planted early and took good
care of them.
In the Lovelock valley we do not
know exactly at the present time, as
the harvesting is not completed yet.
but we expect they will run from eight
to ten tons per acre. This low yield up
ing late. I presume you were familiar
with that condition, last spring, in the
Humboldt valley. We figure that the
average crop in Nevada will bring
fifteen tons per acre. We have no
doubt it will as soon as the farmers
get more experience in raising sugar
beets.
The price we pay is $3.50 for Is per
cent sugar in the beets, and 30 cents
more for all per cent above Is. Our
beets are running from IS to 90 per
cent this year. The price above is
here at the factory at Fallon.
The cost of raising an acre of sugar
beets does not exceed more than $50
to sS5 per acre, all team and hand
labor included The cost depends
somewhat how far the beets have to
he hauled from the land to the railroad
station or factory This is included in
the above mentioned price.

DEATH BLOW TO
BATH TUB TRUST

Washington dispatch, dated Nov.
18th, says: in an epoch making decis-
ion today in the so-called "bathtub
trust case the Supreme Court of the
United States laid down the broad
principle that there can be no monop-
oily in the unpatented product of a
patented machine without violating
the Sheman antitrust law. Justice
McKenna delivered the unanimous
opinion of the court
Tn accordance with this doctrine the
court struck down as illegal the eli
cense agreements by which manufac-
turers of So per cent of the sanitary
enameled ware in the United States
were bound together in combination.
The license agreement allowed the
manufacturers to use patented dredg-
er, but only on condition that they
abide by an attached price list, would
not sell to jobbers who bought from
iDdependeL is, would not sell in certain
territory and would not sell seconds.
Officials of the department of JUS
tice were highly elated over the de-
cision which it is claimed will have an
important bearing on several investi-
cations now under way as well as on
antitrust suits already fled against
the so-called "moving picture trust =
and the United Shoe Machinery com
pany. The decision is regarded as inn
portant because of the government s
claim that the "patent license agree
ment' plan was being adopted by
many concerns as a result of the ju-
dIeial ban upon the "pure trust plan
as exemplifed in the case of the Stan
dard Oil company of Ohio, the "hold-
ing company plan as declared invalid
in the Northern Securities case, and
the combination of holding company
and manufacturing company as
shown in the Standard Oil and tobac-
co eases.
Effect of Agreements.
Justice McKenna in his opinion
said that the effect of the agreements
was to controvert independent and
competitive companies into combina-
tion subjected to rules and regulations
The trade was practically controll-
ed from producer to consumer said
he, "and the potency of the scheme
was established by the cooperation of
65 per cent of the manufacturers and
their fidelity to it was secured not only
by trade advantages but by what was
practically pecuniary penalty, not
inaptly termed in the argument ash
bail. -
The decision sustains the decree of
the United States District Court for
Maryland abrogating the "license
agreement, and paves the way for
the retrial of the criminal suit against
the "bathtub trust the first trial of
which, at Detroit several months ago
resulted in disagreement of the jury

FOUND DEAD IN THE SNOW
w. j. Towle Represented Franklin In
the Legislature Of 1896.

Franklin, Jan. 11--W. J. Towle,
aged 76 years. was found dead in the
snow in the woods short distance
from his home at about seven o'clock
this evening. Mr. Towle had an APP
pointment with Asa Goodhue. who
was to do some cutting for him, at
four this afternoon at the wood lot
about mile from the house. As
Mr.. Towle did not return, an investi-
cation was made and it was found
that Mr. Goodhue had waited till five
o'clock. A searching party was or
ganized and Mr.. Towle's body was
found in the snow. His death was
probably caused by heart failure.
Mr.. Towle represented Franklin in
the Legislature Of 1896. He was
prominent in the church and was a
man of a kindly benevolent nature.

SEINE STILL RISING
Water Is Now Only 10 Feet Below
Level Of 1910 Flood.

Paris, Jan 1.-THE river Seine is
still rising, although it is thirteen
feet below the mark of the great
food of 1910. The situation is con
sidered very grave, the photographic
authorities announcing that as a re-
suit of the overflow of the Marine and
other tributaries of the Seine, on ac-
count OF the continuous heavy rains
for a week part, the river will con
tinue to rise until the end of the
week. This will put all the wharves
under water.
River traffic Of any Importance is
now completely suspended, and the
low-lying quarters of Grenelle and
Auteuil are beginning to be invaded
A great sewer at the Quai de Billy
the construction of which was decid
ed upon after the flood of 1910 and
which is half completed, was destroy
ed this afternoon.

HOUSE SPLITS BUT
NOT ALONG PARTY
LINES
Conservatives of Both Parties
Vote Together
PROGRESsVES LOST FIGHT
Result May Have Been Due to Desire
OF Stand Pat Democrats to Get
Slap at Underwood.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE rules
fight in the House today was one be-
tween the conservatives and the rad
icals in both parties, and was won by
the conservatives, l67 to 107. It was
all a contention over the vacancy on
the rules committee caused by the
death of Representative Madison a
progressive republican. Representa-
tive Mann the republican leader, had
decided that it should be filled by the
appointment of Representative Camp
bell of Kansas, a conservative repub-
lican. The republican progressives
were of the opinion that one OF their
kind should be succeeded by one of
their kind and Representative Norris
moved the substitution of the name
OF Representative Murdoch, long
prominent as a rebellious republican.
The motion was made as soon as Mr.
Underwood had offered his formal
resolution as chairman of the ways
and means committee, in which he
subscribed to the VIII of the recog-
nized republican leadership IL was
great surprise when a great many
democrats broke away from the dem.
ocratic leadership, and for a time it
looked as if Mr.. Norris would I'M
horse the democratic powers, just as
two years ago he endorsed Speaker
Cannon. The vote was regarded as
slap at Mr.. Underwood by certain
democrats, although quite a number
voted for Mr.. Murdoch for personal
reasons, liking the man. Representa-
tive Murray of Massachusetts was
one of these. Representative Thayer
of Massachusetts also preferred not
to follow his party's leader. The
cleavage was thought significant OF
the probable lining up of the mem
bers of the House on some coming
radical legislation. The vote was al
so thought damaging to Mr. Under
woods presidential chances and that
it was intended by some democrats
to have such an effect.
The Lodge resolution in ratification
of the arbitration treaties is all that
was predicted for it, The views still
vary in regard to just what il does
to the treaties. The speeches of
Secretary Knox indicate that the
substance of the Lodge resolution
had always been agreeable to him
and necessarily to the administra-
ton.

BURNS ACQUITTED
Detective Not Guilty Of Charge Of
Kidnapping.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan 12.-TAfter
being complimented yesterday by
the federal court for having render
ed a great service to his country,
William j. Burns, the detective, was
released from the charge OF having
kidnapped John ]. Mcnamara, the
convicted dynamiter. All the charg-
es In the indictments against Burns
for having arrested the labor leader
in indianapolis last April and taking
him to California for trial were held
to be null and void. IF or this
court had had anything to with the
arrest of Mr.. Burns in this instance,
| should certainly now tender him an
apology" said Federal Judge A. B.
Anderson in Diminishing the indict-
ments brought by the county grand
Jury under which the detective had
been held in $4,000 bail.
"The order which the court shall
enter will make impossible for any
prosecutions to be brought under the
indictments" The court held that
when Burns and James Hosick, a Los
Angeles detective. arrested Nc Nam
ara on a requisition from the gov
ernor of California, which was honor
ed by the governor OF Indiana, they
acted legally under the federal statu
ties and any conflict in the state law
with the federal law. which made
IL possible to bring an indictment
was not constitutional.
The federal constitution and Con
gress. the court said. delegated tc
the governors of the states the power
of honoring acquisitions for fugitives
from Justice and the Indiana Legisla
ture had no legal right to take Inis
power from the governor and add II
to the duties of a county judge. The
indictments against Burns and Hos
ick alleged that Mcnamara was
denied the right to resist extraditior
in a county court. Judge Anderson
indicated II Hosick, who also was In
dicted, petitioned for release, the
release would be granted.
Detective Burns said In n state
ment: ever since my arrest
have contended there was no justin
cation in prosecuting me. Then
repeatedly asked for prompt trial
but this was denied by the count,
authorities. At the time ! regarded
Il as an attempt to hamper my &C
tivitles at Los Angeles. | am still
working on this dynamite oonspirac!
and constantly turning up more evi
dence."
