A resolution has boon introduced into
tlio United Staloo senate providing for
the recognition of Ihorcpubllcof Brnzil
by the government o/tho / United States
It congratulates the pcoplo of llrn7il
"on their just and pcacoful assumption
of the powers , duties and responsibili
ties or scU-govornmcnt , bnsod upon the
free consent of the governed , " nnd
rccogtiuos the Unltod Stntosof Brazil
"ns a lawful nnd rightful government
of right entitled to exercise nnd enjoy
international comity nnd nil the
benefits of the laws of na
tions as a sovereign power " The prcsl-
dent is required to notify the states of
Brazil of this declaration , and by proc
lamation to require the pcoplo nnd
government of the United 3tutc9 nnd of
the sovornl states , and nil persons in
authority thcroln , to recognize the flag
of the United States of Urazll as the
flag of a free , sovorolgn and independ
ent stnto "
There appears no sound ronson why
this action should not be taken It is
true that the republic of Brazil has
bcon established but llttlo more than a.
month , that.no other ' nation has yet
recognized the new government , and
Mint doubt regarding Its pornmnonuo
still oxlsts , nt lenst in qunrtors where
Btioh doubt in natural Hut so far as ap
pears the whole pcoplo of Brazil are
satisfied wltli the now order of things ,
the imperial family , accepting the
situation when it loft the country , has
since shown no disposition to attempt a
restoration of the old condition , there is
peace and order in Iha * * republic ,
the provisional government is per
forming all its functions nnd is pledged
to the observance of every interna
tional obligation inherited from the
monarchy , business Is going on without
Interruption " , nnd in all respects the
United States of Hra/.ll presents a per
fectly clear claim to bo regarded and
rccopni/od as a Bovcroign and inde
pendent state Not the Btnallcst fac
tional opposition to the now gov
ernment is manifested to give
wnrrant for a doubt as to the
permanence of the republic or justify
hesitation in recognizing it
IIow far this country is called upon ,
in the observance of international com
ity , to regard the opinions and await
the action of other nations respecting
Brazil , may bo a question Certainly
if there had been auy conflict over the
chuugo of government , and it was still
opposed by any consldorablo portion
of the people , or it the now
government proposed any policy -
icy ' in violation of the international
obligations entered into by the monl
arehy the United States could not with
a proper regard for the rights and in-
tore-its of other nations cxtond its roe
ognition But the opposlto of all this
1b 1 the case Tbo revolution was absolutely -
lutoly peaceful , the result is accepted
by the people of the oniiro country , or
at any rate if any oppose it they do not
show their hostility , nnd the govern
ment has declared Us purpose to faith
fully f respect every international obligation -
gation of the monarchy Under these
circumstances it would socm
J
that this government might , with every
propriety ' , and without wrong to any
ether nation , recognize the sister ro
public
It is both the duty and the interest of
the United States to in every legitimate
way oncourngo the new republic , and
by ' its countenance , friendship and in-
lluonco ' to strengthen it in the confi
dence ' of its own people and in the respect -
spect ! of the world Recognition would
go I far toward bringing about these desirable -
sirablo i results , and it would undoubt
edly < have the very general and hearty
approval of the American people , while
it would bring into closer relations of
friendship with us apooplo whoso coun
try Is nearly as great as ourown in area
and no less rich in resources
JXVLUX OP FOrtlilON CAPITAL
It is estimated that the investments
of British capital in the United States
during the p'-csont year amount to nt
least o ' no hundred millions of dollars
Some Gorman capital has also found in
vestment in this country , though the
amount is comparatively small The
greater part of this money has boon
paid in cash or in obligations
which have been turned into
cash abroad , so that it consti
tutes an important addition to
the wealth of the country The amount
of English capital invustod here this
year is greater than in any provioua
year , nnd it is intorosllng to note in
evidence of the vast surplus wealth of
Kngland that the ugirrogato actual in
vestments of British capital in now en
terprises , in 1889 , amount to not less
than seven hundred nnd fifty million
dollars Tills vast sum , remarks a
wrltor in the Now York Sun ,
represents , for the most part , not
reinvestments , nor the total an
nual gains of the British pcoplo ,
but only tbo excess of these gains re
maining above the expenditures upon
necessities and upon pleasures It is
the product , too , not of gambling nor of
stock-jobbing , but of skill and honoBt
hard work It is dug out of the ground
in the shnpo of coal , iron , tin , copper
nnd ether minerals ; it is sntin out of our
raw cotton , Italian nnd French Bilk ,
nnd the wool of various countries A
largo proportion of it is earned in the
carrying trade
The Interesting quobtion for
Americans is whether this great
inllux of British capital is
likely to bo maintained Shall wo
contluuo to got ono-sovonth or mora of
the annual Investments made from tha
surplus wealth of that country in for
eign enterprises'1 ! Kvidontly the op-
portunitios for the prolltahlo homo investment -
vestment of British capital nro about
oxhuustod Only upon this assumption
can its largo outflow into foreign invest
ments bo satisfactorily explained It
thib bo bo there is every reason why the
United States shall continue to bo a
Hold for the investment of British
capital on ns great nscnlo as heretofore ,
mid possibly greater Of course much
will depend upon whether the incomes
expected from Investments nlroudy
inudo BMU bo'roultzod , but in any
evontsHnish capital is very cortaln to i
continue to Book employment hero in
very largo amounts The channels of
investment it has already outured do i
not exhaust the opportunities , and Eng
lish capitalists have a very thorough
appreciation of the great possibilities of
this country
I'orhnps the most serious dnngor
which this foreign capital may encoun
ter is adverse legislation , which has al
ready boon directed against it to a
limited degree by national nnd state
laws , There is unquestionably n , strong
sentiment ngninst oncouraglng Its in-
vostinont hero , and it if ' not imnoslblo
that this feeling may in time become so
extended ns to result in ponoral legis
lation designed to exclude this capital
But nothing of this sort is Immediately
threatened , and those who desire the
steady and vigorous promotion of na
tional development will be 9low to nc-
qulcscc in a policy which would almost
cottalnly have the effect to retard It
SUllAR llKVT VIIOVITS
The question of sugar boot culture is
attracting widespread attention With
in the past few years experiments have
demonstrated that the industry can bo
mndo as successful in this country as
in Franco The per cent of sugar ob
tained from samplesrnised in this coun
try exceed the French product , prov
ing that the soli , especially in the west ,
is peculiarly adapted for that purpose
Under the inspiration of Claus
aprcckel's , the farmers of California
will make the sugar beet ono
of the lending crops this
year After building his factory last
year , Sprcckols offered two prizes , ag
gregating seven hundred and fifty dollars
lars , for ilvo and ten aero tracts of
boots producing the largest amount of
sugar per acre The competition re
sulted in the production of beets which
yielded ns high as eighty-four hundred
and soventcon pounds of sugar to the
aero These ligure3wcro never reached
by either Germany or France
The farmers and capitalists of
Nebraska are thoroughly alive
to the importance of sugar
bcot culture The interest is
manifested in the number of inquiries
received nnd the discussions in the
press , and the further fact that the low
price obtained for corn this year oper
ates tis an incentive to diversified and
more profitable crop3. An analysis of
the sugar boots raibed in Hall county
showed sixteen per cent of sugar , dem
onstrating that the rich , sandy loam of
Nebraska is na prolific for root crops as
for corn
The organization of a company to
build nnd operate a sugar factory
in Grand Island promises an early
practical test of the value of this
industry , The state bounty of ono cent
n bound for all the product showing
ninty : per cent of crystnli7cd sugar is
an inducement which will multiply fac
tories in the state , if the first proves a
success , of which there is no reasonable
doubt Exports estimate that a factory
consuming thirty thousand tonsot boots
annually will not a.profit of twonty-iivo i
per 1 cent ou the investment To farmers i
the ' industry is equally ptofitablo From i
fifteen ' to twenty tons of beets can bo ,
raised ' to the acre , which , at four dollars
lars ' a ton , delivered , will net a sura 1
gioator I than is now realized from the 1
loading ' crops
Tinui : is no room for dispute on the
question ' of increasing tbo bond of the
city ' tronsurer The charter requires
thnt the bond of the treasurer shall not
bo . less than two hundred thousand del
lars As custodian of school funds ho is
required ! to give a similar amount
Both bonds are insullleient According
to the report of the city comptroller for
the past eleven months , the city treasurer -
uror has now a balance of two hundred
and forty thousand dollars , and this
sum docs not include the city hall fund ,
estimated at govonty-flvo thousand dollars
lars , besides balances in the various
paving and sewer funds The receipts
from saloon licenses next month
will oxeced two hundred thousand del
lars The two bonds nro ontircly dis
tinct They apply to separate depart
ments of city finnncos It will bo scon
thercforo that both the city and school
board are inadequately protected
There is senrcoly a period of the year
that the city funds in the hands of the
treasurer do not exceed the amount of
his bond The charter empowers the
council to increase the bond to double
the amount of the funds on hand at any
time , and that power should bo exor
cised

It was most certainly a manifestation of

brainless youth , ( who has made so many
failures and squandered bo many of his
uaddv's dollars in newspaper ventures ) nnd
send hiin to a mining camp to write It up
The reason for his intense hatred of Dead
wood leaked out yesterday and is this :
Ho was accompanied b * ladle0 , and as was
natural desired to impress bis companions
that ho had traveled nnd was blooded , " so
to i speak At the hotel they ordered dinners -
nors i that woulu co3t a dollar and a half each
in I any city iu the United States , and jet
they ' made a vigorous kick at the charge of Jl
each ' IIo declared with much feeling that
"I can get a meal cheaper than that in n
lour or five story brick You have no right
to , charge that much for a meal in a fraino
building | " Then ho sallied forth in quest of
