Company may advance the money yet
The Sugar Company takes it out OF the
proceeds OF the farmers beets in the

Tremendous Profits for Sugar
Company.
WHO makes the profits in the sugar

out excessive reserves and alter S5O,-
OOO salaries for some officials, (and no
doubt liberal bonus il the truth were

DOLLARS Ito be exact, S5,5l5, ,24OOo)
1t is generally understood around
Billings that in normal years the Bill

MlLLlON DOLLARS.
Thus, WHO is the real beneficiary
OF cheap labor in the sugar industry
Sugar Company Should Pay
Decent Wages.
The organized sugar beet workers
are asking $1,000 per acre in 1886 to-
enable them to make between 100000
and $4,000 per family, to enable them
to live through the winter without 60
ing on relief or existing on charity. Is
this demand unreasonable?
But outside labor is being brought
in simply to defeat their demands.
And Governor Holt is assisting the
Sugar Company to break this strike
against starvation wages.
There is PLENTY Of labor in Mon
tana on relief rolls. provided a decent
wage were paid.

started bringing in outside
labor to work in the Colorado beet
fields, the Colorado Governor closed
the border to all foreign labor, using

The fireman Is Capt. Robert Whit
taker, who was on his way to work
late yesterday afternoon when he
spied the blaze in the shed owned
by the Southern New England Ice
Co.
He found the caretaker, Thomas
Moran, Of As Plaza avenue, fight
ing the flames. First he telephoned
an alarm to headquarters from a
nearby store, then he Joined Mr..
Moran in fighting the blaze. The
caretaker was almost trapped in the
blazing shed, and his eyebrows and
face were singed.
The fire started when the bottom
fell out of an oil burner as the
caretaker was moving it. The hot
oil quickly blazed up and set fire
to the structure.
Also yesterday afternoon firemen
extinguished a brush fire on the
Scully estate, Sylvan avenue, and a

Station Master w. A. Boegia was
tangled up today in raw meat and
lions. The situation was ernbarress-

that is reflected even in the
attitude of their servants. An
actress of genius can indeed
show upon the stage all the
beauty of Juliet's love, but the
screen far SurpaSSeS the stage
in showing what a barrier her
love had to surmOunt.
Perhaps it is in the beautiful
balcony scene that the screen
shows to best advantage. For
the motion picture, the setting
is one with which stage design
erS have wreStled from the time
of the EIiZabethan stage to the
present day, but in no instance
have they had the opportunity
to more than suggest that this
balcony was a part of the Capu-
let home and garden.
I'm the motion picture, the
Capulet home and wall over
which Romeo climbs is seen in
full. The balcony is high enough
so that it is beyond the reach
of the ordinary intruder and
lends physical obstacle for
Romeo to overcome. The garden
is seen from ROmeO's angle, from
Juliet'S angle and also from the
angle of the spectator. How
different from the stage where
the bancOny must always be
centered and a portion of the
audience, at least, must always
look at ROmeO'S back"
