Report of the Committee Appointed to j ' Secure It* Promotion. The committee appointed to consider means of promoting the sugar beet in dustry submitted the following report: Your committee appointed to take under consideration the subject of en couraging the beet sugar industry in Nebraska begs leave to submit the fol lowing report: < * Your committee invited the counsel of experts and those who have had practical experience in the manufac ture of beet sugar. We sought infor mation that would enable us to draft a hill to encourage the erection of new factories in the state without the aid of a bounty and at the same time not con flict with the constitution of the state. We did not have our labors completed when the time expired for introducing bills. Consequently we introduced the Brat page of the bill we prepared, which is known as house roll No. 819. Your committee now has a bill drawn which it wishes to substitute for house roll No. 813. While this bill is not what we should like to have had, yet it is the best we could prepare that would be constitutional. The substitute bill simply provides for the organization of sugar beet dis tricts simitar to the irrigation districts ft the state. These sugar beet dis tricts will have a board of direction who arc empowered to contract with beet sugar construction companies to furnish a given number of acres of sugar beets for a given term of years. When the individual citizens of the dis trict fail to contract to grow the re quired number of acres of beets, the board of directors of the district is smpowered to rent land and plant a large enough acreage to supply the leficiency. The district shall nave an assessed property valuation of not less than four million dollars. E. M. Foi.T.abd, '' E. SODKRMAN, Patrick Kopdy, A. E. Sheldon.

The Mexican Financier, a weekly journal of finance published in the Olty of Mexico, in its last number has an article on the subject of expositions, whieh advocates the advisability of making creditable display at the Trans Mississippi show in 1808. The article speaks of the invitations which have been received by the government to exhibit the country’s resources at the Nashville exposition during the sum mer of tho present year, at the Trans Mississippi exposition and at Paris in 1900. The editorial continues as fol lows: “Though those expositions are t6 be on a far smaller scale than that which will signalize tho close of the century at Paris, and for which a pre liminary appropriation is incorporated In the budget of expenditure of the Mexican government for the coining fiscal year, wo do not hesitate to say that more practical utility is calculated to accrue to Mexico from a comprehen sive exhibit of her resources at the comparative unpretentious displays contemplated in the states of Tennes see and Nebraska during this and next year than on the more imposing stage of the French metropolis in 1900.” I ' Mr. Bryan and Hla Book.

V HELP HOME INDUSTRY THAT IS WHAT CONGRESSMAN MAXWELL WOULD DO. j Ha Would Encourage ligir Miklag Gen j "rally and In Kabraaka Particularly— A BUI With that Object In Tlaar Iatroduced and Appropriate ly Referred. Maxwell Favors a Bounty. Washington dispatch: Congressman Maxwell’s bill, which he introduced in the house to encourage the erection of mills to manufacture sugar and syrup trom sugar beets, has been referred to the committee on ways and means. The text of the bill follows: A bill for an act to encourage the erection of mills to manufacture sugar and syrup from sugar beets. Whereas, Sugar beets containing more than 13 per cent of sugar and 80 per cent purity are now being success fully cultivated in many parts of the United. States, the production thereof being limited by the want of mills to extract the sugar from the beets, and with a sufficient number of mills to manufacture the annual crop of beets there is reason to believe sufficient sugar would be produced in the United States to supply the nation; and, Whereas, Such mills require costly and elaborate machinery and a large outlay of money to put them in opera tion, which ordinarily is beyond the means of ordinary individuals; there fore be it enacted by the senate and house of representatives of the United States of America in congress as sembled: [■Section 1. That to encourage the erection of mills to manufacture sugar from sugar beets a bounty of 75 cents per ton shall be paid out of the treas ury of the United States for each and every ton of beets raised in the United States and the sugar extracted there from by mills erected under the pro visions of this act, within the United States, and such bounty to continue for three years from and after the passage of this act. For the next suc ceeding three years, that is to say, for the fourth, fifth and six years after the passage of this act, a bounty of 50 cents per ton shall be paid as afore said, and for the succeeding three years, to-wit: Seventh, eighth and ninth years after the passage of this act a bounty of 25 cents per ton shall be paid as aforesaid, when said boun ties shall cease and determine. Set. 2. The person operating any of said mills and claiming the bounty under the provisions of this act shall, during the time each year when said mills are in operation, males report by mail at the close of each day's business to the secretary of the treasury of the number of tons of beets purchased dur ing the day, the average amount of saccharine matter therein and degree of purity, and the • postoftice address and the names of persons from whom beets were received apd the price paid, and shall make oath to the correctness of the same before any sftlcer author ized to administer oaths. A false oath shall Bubieet the afliant to all the pains and penalties of perjury. Sec. 3. The person operating any of the said mills and claiming a bounty under the provisions of this act shail also, at the close of business of each week, make a sworn statement of the amount of sugar manufactured in said mill from sugar beets during the week just then closed and also state the quality, whether refined or unrefined. •Sec. 4. The secretary of the treas ury shall provide such rules and regu nlations as arc necessary to carry this act into effect and secure the faithful observance of its provisions by all per sons connected with the business. This act shall continue in force for the period of nine years from and after its passage. Nebraska Patronage Prom Washington. _ Washington special: It has not been decided yet what offices of importance outside of the main federal offices in Nebraska, President McKinley will be urged to apportion to leading republi cans in our state. There are. rumors that one of the South American mis sions will be requested and that it will be tendered to John L. Webster and in the event of his declination to John 0. Uowin. Kx-Representativc Meiklejohn is on the slate for a position at the national capital if one worth his while can be secured. C. A. Atkinson and F. W. Collins both long for a desk in the department of justice. One or both will be disappointed. Senator Thurs ton feels inclined to do something for Church Howe and has carefully filed away his long list of places that would suit him, promising to take them up in the near future for examination and selection. Church feels quite confident that he will come under the wire a winner, and some of his friends share with him in his belief. One thing can be set down as certain that Nebraska will not fare as well in matters of federal appointments out side of the state under the present ad ministration as she did when General Harrison occupied the white house. Then she had the minister to Chili, a commissioner of the general land office, two successive assistant secre taries of treasury and an assistant attorney-general. None of these places were under the civil service rules and j none are today. Hut Nebraska in 1888 I cast her elcctorial vote for the republi can ticket, while in 189« she gave a majority for the opposition. This fact will of course count against her in the distribution of the ‘ small number of important offices at the disposal of Major McKinley.

For the first time the committee had before it the consideration of the details of construc tion and the session was an animated one, lasting all the afternoon, and an adjournment was taken in order to give this most important matter still further consideration. The estimate presented by Mr. Kir kendall was explained by that gentle I man as being a rough, approximation designed to acquaint the members of the committee with the probable cost of an exposition constructed along the lines which have been laid down, lie said the. list in question did not include the buildings to be erected by the federal government or the state of Nebraska, but was only designed to Include the buildings to be erected by the exposition association.

Members of the committee were unanimous on the point that the agri cultural feature of the exposition must be one of the most prominent, in honor of the importance of the agricultural industry of the entire Trans-Mississippi region. The auditorium will be an immense structure, a duplicate of the world famous Mormon tabernacle in Sait Lake City, the most perfect auditorium in the world. It will probably be con structed of steel framework us such, a manner that it may be removed when the exposition is. over ami erected near the business center of town. _ A special feature will be made of the live stock exhibit, and extensive pre parations will he made to make that one of the most attractive departments.
