York fPa.) Dispatch: ''The treasurer of the
Michigan Beet Sugar Company told then Gov
ernor Wilson last September that the beet sugar
interests Of that state stood ready to invest mil
lions of dollars in the business if they could be
assured Of the next presidents attitude towards
that industry. The candidates reply, as the
treasurer wrote it the same day to the manager
Of the compahy's factories, was: You need not
be one bit afraid of me, sir
ssIf Wilson's reply meant what it appeared to
and what it was accepted as meaning, the beet
sugar interests would seem to have a legitimate
grievance. If it did not mean what it appeared
to. it might better never have been made"

Hutchinson (Kas.) Newss During the last
ten years, or since beet sugar became a factor,
the price of sugar to the consumer has been de-
creased. The removal of the tariff on sugar is
merely an invitation to the sugar trust to get its
raw product cheaper, hold up the price to the
consumer and let the sugar beet raisers go to
smash. Gid the story as you wish, that is all
there is to the sugar tariff. talk In our judg-
ment.t the people of western Kansas should stand
by the sugar beet farmers and add to their mar
ket instead of driving them out of business

THERE'S A REASON.

Speaker Hull and others complain
that their criticisms of the university,
which they claim are just. are not
kindly received. But the reason is
plain: With representatives Of selfish
interests finding fault with the univer-
sity, because it stands between the PEG
pie and the plague of special privilege,
and with an officer of the state spend
ing a great part of his time in bringing
railing accusations against it, is it any
wonder that IL is hard to get hearing
for criticism which might tend to i'm
provementH AT this time one who
would criticise the university kindly
and justly needs be careful lest he fall
into the company of those who find
fault without cause.

Mr., Mahon is right. A machine may

ticket, regardless of the individual
merits or dement's of the several candi.

FOR A SECOND CHOICE.

Reforms which Mr.. Wilson proposed,
but did not Obtain include bill pro
viding for jury commissions, and an
amendment to the primary laws known
as the Wisconsin system of second
choice voting, and the endorsement of
the amendment for direct election Of
United States senators. Mr.. Wilson
hopes that this program will be com
pleted before the Legislature adjourns.
Press dispatch from Trenton N. j.
Note that President Wilson stands
for the second choice provision for pri-
mary elections, This III what certain
men in Wisconsin calling themselves
Democrats revIed last year as the
MARY Ann" law. The second choice
provision is all right. IL it can only be
preserved from designing politicians, and
followers whom they mislead, 1t will
prove one of the wlsest and best of laws.
