Congressman KeatinQ'S Letter.

, deavoring to cut the price paiC
to farmers for their beetS
The average reduction proposed
is 80 cents per ton, and the ar
gument advanced in support O
the change is that the Underwood
tariff bill has forced down the
price of sugar to the cosumers
1t is true that the consumers
have already benefited tremen
dously from this splendid piece
of Democratic legislation. When
l was campaigning in Colorado
in the fall of 1912, | took the oc.
casiOn to ascertain the retail
price of sugar in the various
towns | visited. l found that the
house wives were getting from
II to u lbs, of beet sugar for a
doilor and | told them if they
would elect a Democratic Presi.
dent and Congress, we would
see that they received at leas
20 lbs. for a dollar.
Every corner grocery in the
United States is today " stand
ing advertisement OF thc com,
plete redemption of the pledge.
Three years hence, when the
last veStage of the sugar tariff
has been removed from our sat
ute books, the house wife will get
% lbs. for Il dollar and the party
which attempts to force il return
to the old conditions will expert.
ence mighty rough shedding es-
pecially in those states where
the women have the ballot.
! But this reduction to the con.
sumer does not justify cut in
the price paid to the farmer for
his beets, and hope the beet
growers of Colorado will call the
bluff off the sugar interests and
insist on THE OLD PRICE OR
OBEETS,"
| want to reiterate what
have frequently said in these
letters: An up-to date sugar
factory, properly located in Col.
orado, can compete with the
world on free trade basis and
pay handsome return on tie
capital actually invested.
There are some antequated
plants in Colorado, over cap.
italiZed and in some instances To-
Gated far from their beet supply,
which must be modernized me-
chanically and relieved of the
need of paying dividends on wat
cred stock or they vii! be forced
out of business These are the
concerns that the sugar inter
ests always point to when they
are seeking tariff favors or when
they are pleading with the farm
iers for Il reduction in the price
of beets. In oruer that these
Junk heaps may continue to Oper-
ate The farmers ure asked to
grow bects for less than the cost
of production,

 made 1t in ss. The Chattanooga team won
 the team cup with the following scores: l Garner Watkins 95, Earnest Martin 9f, F. l T. Clark si sand Scott Proba sco 94-total S67
 I The playing yesterday was badly ham
 pered by the heavy rain which fell in the
 morning just as the players made ready
 to begin. The grounds were soaked and the course was much slower than 1t would
 have been otherwise, according to opin-
 ions expressed by many of the golfers 1 present.
 First Flight Players | Over 100 players entered the tournament 64 qualifying for the four flights, f6 in each. The first flight players and the

 F. T. Clark and K. T. Mason Milton Dargan, Jr.. and McGee Tyson. T. J. Watson and G. Fl. Davis. The rain, while it slowed up the course did not dampen the enthusiasm of the players, and the links were well filled with players practically all day. The down. pour started shortly after 9 o'clock and play was delayed for few minutes and then the driving began. Many of the participants played six or more holes in a heavy rain and this handicapped them resulting in high scores. It was predicted that S2 would be an ex- cellent score for an amateur to make over the course, and the lowest for the day was S1. the next being SS.
