The ruling Of the interstate COM
merce commission on beet sugar
rates to the south handed down, Fri
day. will openth southern markets
to the product OF the Michigan and
Ohio beet sugar factories, and Michi-
gan sugar men are much pleased. The
commission has ordered readjuA-
ment Of the freight rates from points
In Michigan and Ohio to Knoxcille
and Chattanooga, Tenn. The freight
rate was found to discriminate
against northern beet sugar produc-
ers in favor Of the southern cane
sugar producers, the rate from Ohio
river points to points in Tennessee

ment with the rates from other
points. 1t Is expected that the ad-
justment in rates Will be completed

the expedition OF Colonel Brown had

The blockade of southern ports. at
which the southerners aud Europeans
had scoffed in the beginning. was
being made more effective as the
months went by. but was still far from
being complete 1t was a Stupendous
undertaking. as never in history had a
serious effort been made to blockade so
long coast line The lack of avaiia-
BILE vessels on the part Of the north
made the task so much the more diff
cult. but by the conversion Of all
sorts of craft into gunboats. by whole
sale purchases and by feyerish activ-
ity in shipbuilding the blockade was
at last made much more effective than
ut first seemed possible. This became
an important factor in conquering the
south. as II isolated her from the
world. shut off supplies and threw her
on her own resources. which were rap
Idly depleted. Thus in the end tie
blockade justified itself Even In o.
