a return OF $50 on every ton of beets
handled. The farmer gets s5. the fac
tory gets $3.50. According tn the
price of sugar in the latter part of last
summer and early fall. when the market
price was s6 and upwards, the factory
would get from SIS TO 50 a ton for max
ing the sugar. where the farmer gets
less than IS per ton for raising tho
beets This is an unequal division. 1t
has resulted in such enormous profits
TO the sugar factories. that the stocks
of these factories have had to be
watered repeatedly in order to keep
down the apparent high rate of divi.
dends
II is certainly true that the Ameri-
can public would be better off if it
raised it's own sugar. But it is not
likely to raise Its own sugar with the
present policy prevailing, which gives
to the beet sugar trusts all over the
country, linked and held together by
their connections with the big sugar
trust, practically all of tho profit there
is in the business. Clans Sprcckols SAYS
that beet sugar can be produced at
three cents per pound. He is a man of
large experience in the business, and
doubtless he knows what he is talking
about. If this rate which he desig~
mates were put into effect here, and
the farmers were given So ton for
their beets, the sugar factory would get
$3.50 per ton for manufacturing the
beets into sugar, on the 121a per cent
saccharine basis, with five cents a
pound for sugar, The factories would
get besides all the by-products, the mo.
lasses, and the pulp which passes after
all the profitable saccharine matter has
been extracted from it, and is still ex.
cellent for feed for cattle 1t is also
true that the saccharine quality of
beets is often good deal higher than
l21a per cent. in fact, 12h per cent
is low average. If the saccharine
quality should be Is 2-3 per cent, as il
often is, and as the average could prob
ably be made, the sharing of the sugar
factories, counting everything, would
range from $40 to $l1 per ton of the
beets; and that would yield profit
enough, surely.
An adjustment on economic lines af,
fording the farmers fully s. per ton for
their beets and allowing the best sugar
factory trust splendid profits, would al.
low of the selling of sugar for from
four to five cents per pound all through
this region at all times, to the profit of
the whole community and to the suffi-
cient encouragement Of the magnates
Of the local sugar trust. Mr.. Rolapp s
idea that the United States should pro
duce It's own sugar is unquestionably
good, but those who raise the beets
should not be expected to do it all.
Those who manufacture the sugar from
the beets should be willing to do their
share, and TO take less extraordinary
profits than they have been enjoying
in the past.

SHIPMENT OF Pipe TO Los ANGELES

The first of series of shipments
of pipe to be used IN the construc-
ton of the fifty million dollar water
system of Los Angeles has left
Chicago. The special train was
composed of twenty-five cars, each
carrying ct least forty thousand
pounds, and there will be many
more such shipments before this
project is an accomplished fact.
The water for Los Angeles will
come from the Sierras, distance
of two hundred and fifty miles.
The aqueducts carrying the water
will have to pass through deserts
and mountains before reaching
their final destination.

DOINCS OF BOARD
OF COMMISSIONERS
Lighting the Parks -Resigna-
ton OF rn- En1et---Dog
Ordinance.

The City Commissioners received
communication from the w. c. I. u.
asking that for the sake of the city's
young peoples morals more lights
should be placed in Central Park.
It was voted to put one more cleo
teic light in Central Park Auditorium
The park already has one big lung
stem which with this one will burn
all night. The object of the lights
is to discourage the custom Of
Young people spooning there. The
w. C. T. U. asked for two but only
one light was ordered installed.
Mayor Lapham Immediately asked
for two lights for Katy City Park
declaring it as essential to have that
Iiebted as Central Park. The
other commissioners failed to see il
that way and when Mayor Lapham
after a rather heated discussion
made the motion that two lights in
addition to the two already there
be installed 1t failed to receive a
second.
Johnson contended that all those
park lights take current and thai
the current had not been strong
enough to light all the streets ano
did not think 1t should be used toi
KATY City Park lighting until the
streets we're better lighted.
In connection with the park
lighting question Mayor Lapham
said. "It IS the parents duty to see
that these young girls who frequent
the parks at night are kept at home

MUzzLING DOGS

The Mayor has issued a procla-
nation stating that all dogs that are
allowed to run about the streets or
public places shall be muzzled from
July IS to September IS, 1912.
1t was thought best to have the
dogs muzzled because those two
months include the time when dogs
are most likely to go mad. Several
complaints in regard to mad dogs,
dogs having fits and strangely acting
dogs have been made to the police
department in the last week.

RESIGNATION OF FIRE CHIEF


The commissioners accepted the
resignation of Fire Chief McClane
at this meeting. In dong so the
Mayor said that he regretted very
much the circumstances which made
it necessary for McClane to resign,
for in the Boards opinion he was
one of the best fire chiefs that Cha
mute ever had and one of its best
fire fighters.
S. O. Mitchell was appointed fire
chief in Mechanics place. Frank
Rhodes is filling the other place
temporarily.
The resignation of McClane came
as a result of the trouble the fire
chief had Friday evening. The
episode happened about 8 O'Clock
and was the elimination of dis
cussion over whether the horse col
lar was the cause for its bleeding al
the nostrils the day of the Asphalt
Plant fire.
