remain uncortain for any length of
time, Thoy aro now waiting to bo an
nexed, and if tho American people
reject them, there are other wide
awake powers waiting and anxious to
snatch them without lomporizing. It
is hardly conceivable, however, that
tho people of this country will be so
blind to thei- own interests as to bo act
in this manner. Those islands, as has
fr'qu-nily been said, lire Uio key to
the Pacific, as they are in the line
of all sinus p'ssing up and down that
ocean and they will bo of vastly more
importance Wthis country when -ore

destroy or cripple the new beet-sugar
industry. It is impossible to under
stand why a moment's study the of
situation does not eliminate this
feature of tho discussion. Th
beet-sugar industry and the sugar
industry of Hawaii do not in any way
interfere. Sugar beets are now boing
raised with profit in various parts of
the country, nowhere more so than on
the Pacific slope, and the California

THE remarkable inert ase in the
consumption of sugar in the United
States during the past twelve months
points to the held which the Deet-
sugar enterprise in this country nas
to till. The sugar consumed during
18!)7 wa- 2, ll'JG,G0 tons against l,'JU0,(i8li
tons in 18!6, an increase of 130,177 tons
or 272,3"4,000 pounds. There were
last year only 41,347 tons of beet-sugar
produced in the United States, 289;000
tons of cane sugar, 5,000 tons of maple
sugar and 300 tons of sorghum sugar,
making a total of 336,050 tons of var-
ious kinds of sugar produced in the
country, and leaving 1,760,607 tons to
be imported, most 01 wnicn comes
from Europe. There is no doubt.
