TO PROTECT SUGAR IN.
DUSTRY,

In criticising the proposed
tariff on sugar, opponents Of
the measure say it will in.
crease the price to the consum.
or some two cents a pound and
that the ones who will reap
the benefit will be the specu-
lators and not the producers.
Without such a tariff the
American beet sugar industry
cannot exist against compel
ition of foreign sugar produc-
cd with cheap labor.
Without this protection, Am
crican farmers raising sugar
beets could not be paid suffi-
Gent return for their crop to
enable them to grow beets.
With the American beet SUI
gar industry gone. the U. s.
would be wholly at the mercy
Of the foreign sugar producers
md spectators and we would
have no beet crop to balance
the situation.
The tariff on sugar is not for
the benefit Of the Spectator,
hut is for the benefit Of the
American people by assuring
them the development of their
domestic sugar industry which
will make them independent Of
foreign supplies.

UTAH'S OPPORTUNITY

Utah's canning industry
means millions of dollars to the
state, but the average citizen
does not know this. Neither
does he know that out through
the middle west where Utah
canned goods compete with
other canned fruits and vege-
tables, that the buyer will pay
a higher price for the Utah
product on account of its sup
erior quality.
The point is that Utah is not
fully awake to the possibilities
before it in the matter of intel-
s've farming and the raising
of crops that may be canned or
preserved and sent over the
world in this form. Utah's
population is small but results

THIS QUESTION OF
SUNDAY

"Shall the United States
abolish Sunday" asks Henry
Ford's paper.
Of course not. But there is
lot in the viewpoint.
OF late we have been hav-
ing much talk concerning
"bluc laws" and many papers
Rave worked themselves into
"A fine frenzy about it. Most
of the talk is bunk. Very few
of the people who are cam
Taigning for a "purer" Sun
day want to go half rs far as
these organs of opinion say
they do.
Sunday observance is large
ly a matter of viewpoint. What
one man considers Sunday
work is not so considered by
another man. What one person
holds as desccration of the day
another man holds rs no desc
creation at all.
Nevertheless. let the man -
especially the workingman -
who decries all Sunday obser-
vance, beware. On what foun.
dation does the day of rcst-Sun.
day-layi What is the sole in
flucnce that upholds it,
The Christian religion. No.
thing else.
What would happen if the
Christian religion were made
negligible in the United States
and if, thercupon, Sunday be-
came as any other day? Re
salts would be the same as in
pagan China, where the work
ingman has no day Of rest at
all. And as in Japan where
no Christian religion is present
to see that people get their one
day in seven; where the law
allows the worker one day off
in 30, which, however, he does
Mt get if the employer can help
it.
Don't belittle your Ameri-
can Sunday too much, folks,
or some day the mass of the
people may be like the degrad-
cd Chinese and the no less de-
graded people of Japan in the
mass.

The Citizen is in receipt OF a COM

in which he advises us that the gov

sending out separate packages to In

many Of which have been returned
at tremendous expense to the gov
eminent, the senator advises that he

packages to each Of our state news

apportion them among the residnets
OF their respective localities through

To this end Senator Smoot ad-
vises the Citizen that he has asked
the department OF agriculture to send
us II packages OF flower seeds and
10 packages OF garden seeds. He
states that he will appreciate II

In our judgement they will be of

viii commence at an ally date.
The sentiment haf been generally
for the paving and there is no ques-
ton but that the streets will be
greatly improved by the placing of
the paving. 1t will mean that we
are progressing. Another thing to
add greatly to the city's business
condition is the psychological infiu
ence that the starting of the work
will have on all lines of business.
With the starting of the actual con
struction work every business inter
est in the city will take on new life
and every individual will come out
of the more or less monotonous
daily routine of these days of stag
nancy in every commercial line. The
effect of actual work will be un-
measurable in it's benefits to the
city and community. 1t will put
the whole business machinery of the
city into operation with the turning
of its wheels and there will natural
ly and positively result change for
the better in all financial and COM
mercial conditions in the city. Let

QUARTER MILLION TO BE SPENT
IN HOLBROOK OIL FIELD

During the last few issues of the
HOlbrOok Tribune the editor has in
timated that important developments
were taking place in the Holbrook
field. We are now able to announce
authoritatively that S. Earl Taylor
has concluded an arrangement where
by three test wells are to be drilled
in various parts of the field
The suggestion was made in the
last issue of the Holbrook Tribune
that these wells would probobly go
down at certain points near the
town, but Mr. Taylor has told the
editor of the Tribune that the loca-
ton is not yet fully determined upon
and will only be decided after fur
ther competent geological advice.
Mr. Taylor has concluded an ar
rangement with Dorsey Hager where
about two weeks in this field early
in August for the purpose of defn-
ing structures more accurately and
of locating the proposed wells.
Arrangements are being made to
place most competent drilling con-
tractor from Oklahoma in charge of
the operations, and it is proposed to
employ two groups of competent
drillers for each we'll so that the
work may go forward day and night.
That the day of big things is com
ing in the Holbrook field is evi-
denced by the fact that the plans
now under way will involve the ex-
penditure of more than quarter of
million dollars in the Holbrook
field and will result in thorough
test which will demonstrate to all
concerned whether or not there is
oil in paying quantities under the
ground. This of course, is assum-
ing that other wells now drilling
are not brought in before these tests
are completed; but Mr.. Taylor as
