    THE NEBRASKA INDEPENDENT
January 9, 1902
when he personally rebuked General
Miles, while that officer was-calling
upon the latter at the White house. It
is not possible to justify the incident,
notwithstanding the habit which
President Roosevelt has contracted of
losing his temper. , Much' more dellr
!eate, courteous, considerate and quite
as effective a method was that taken
by Secretary Long in his indorsement
of the Schley case when he conveyed
in unmistakable terms to Admiral
Dewey the departmental j displeasure
at his unwarrantable introduction Of.
irrevalent matter in, that officer's re
markable minority report as' presi
dent of the Schley court of inquiry."

This short -Tipping"-' describes i- the
sentiment in, Washington as well as it
could be described.: That ibe, president
had the habit . of losing t hi3 .. temper, is
a well known factaffd that . he should
have insulted a caller at li is own house
is a new model in:'etlquette.set up by
the original lTedy."- 1 T"
Information has reached the city
that the returns from the election for
the presidency of Cuba have resulted
in the election of Tomas Estrada Pal
ma, as the first president of the Cuban
republic. His opponent, ..General, Bart
tholomew Maso,,- .having withdrawn
the day before from the race", owing tS
the fact that the American govern
ment refused to allow the Cuban pa
triot more time withinwhich to com
plete his canvass. The victory was of
course an overwhelming one; but now
that it is over, we hear the clamor of
discontent and reasons for the victory
of Palma and the defeat of 'Maso. The
Cuban papers describe it as a victory
for the United States government, for
they had ordered, the victory of Palma
and they meant to have it. However,
this may be, it is sure that ultimate
control of Cubaby the Cubans under
American orders ; will tesult. The Pal
ma party elected five of tne -eight gov
ernors of the provinces.".
Next week promises to be a very
busy one in matters political. Speaker
Henderson returned: from Iowa lato
thi3 evening and all day there has
been quite an influx of members for
the session of both houses of congress
will begin anew on Monday. From the
outlook Colonel Hepburn, chairman of
the canal committee, will have a clear
field next week' for the; Nicaragua ca
nal bill, Which is;th.e special order of
the house for; January .7, prpvided no
appropriation bills press for consider
ation: There are no appropriation bills
ready for the house, probably none will
be for a week to corner An urgent de
ficiency bill will be prepared late next
week, , and the pension i appropriation
bill can be prepared: on forty-eight
hours', notice. A Next ? after that, the
house will probably consider the Dis
trict Of Columbia appropriation bill.
' With such a condition of the appro
priation" bills, it looks as though the
house would be able to give its undi
vided time to the consideration of the
Nicaraguan canal bill, and long ago
it was recognized that its, passage had
become .a certainty. Whether many
members .will press for time to speak
is not clear, but probably the debate
will be brief. , . ,
'Some of the main features of the
protocol between the United States
and Nicaragua, referred to in President
Zelaya's message to his congress, have
been made known in recent press dis
patches from Managua, But there are
many other important features which
have not yet been disclosed, one of
these being the complete-American ju
risdiction and the establishment of
American"; courts, civil and criminal,
throughout a zone six miles wide and
extending from ocean to ocean, and in
cluding the proposed terminal, Grey-
town on he Atlantic and Brito on the
Pacific: The entire policing- of this
large tract also is placed in the hand3
of the United States, so that it has the
power to preserve order and after that
to Issue judicial process extending
throughout this zone. .
Besides the authority of American
courts and of the American police on
the six-mile zone, the chief features of
the protocol are, in giving a lease in
perpetuity of this tract to the United
States, and at the same time giving an
American guarantee that the indepen
dence, sovereignty and integrity of
Nicaragua shall r not be disturbed , by
the rights thus conferred upon the
United States.
No exact information is obtainable
as to the price specified In the protocol
as payment to Nicaragua for the grant
to this country. It can be stated posi
tively, however, that this price is much
less than was expected .when, the ne
gotiations began,, and that, It is considi
ered by 'officials -as reasonable. ; It is
understood that at the outset the view
in Nicaragua was' that $20,000,000
would be a proper figure for the grant
to this country, and about $5,000,000
for Costa Rica's grant. But while
there is no information as to the final
sum in the-protocol, it i3 known to, be
far short of the above figures. As the
cession takes the form of a perpetual
lease, it is probable that the protocol
includes the feature of an annual rent
as part payment.
A protocol with Costa Rica, identi
cal in form with that with Nicaragua,
except in the matter of price and ter
ritory leased, has been in course of ne
gotiation, and it is understood that a
satisfactory conclusion will be reached
with that government.
It is understood that President
Roosevelt will present this matter in
treaty form to the senate some time
during this week in a message.
The friends of the Chinese exclusion
- . ( A -M' 1 ,.
act are making the most of recent dis
patches about , the celestials an occa- j
sion to urge early action of the house
in that matter. . The cablegrams about
the empress dowager's refusal to live
up to her promises made to the Am
erican government and other powers,
as well as recent dispatches about the
efforts to smuggle Chinese into this
country from Mexico and from Canada
by way of Buffalo, are arguments ad
vanced to the committee on foreign af
fairs urging action. The treasury de
partment, has several amendments,
proposed by the Pacific coast mem
bers, which will, in all probability,, be
added to the present . bill before its
adoption.
There has been-a recommendation
that Grover Cleveland be appointed to
represent the United States at: the cor
onation of Edward VII., owing to the
fact that lie is the only living ex
president and would thus add dignity
(as well as weighty ito ;the- representa
tion of the United iStat.es at this" great
ceremony. The idea has met with con
siderable favor and it Is now believed
that should the ex-president be willing
to accept the appointment, that it
would be cheerfully,! off ered to him.
Mr. Cleveland has not. been .welj for
considerable time and v it is doubted if
he will accept. He is at present serv
ing on the labor and capital committee
along with Mark Hanna, C. M.
Schwab, Archbishop Ireland and Bish
op Potter, looking after the Interests
of the laboring man. It is enough to
frighten any laboring man in the
country when that crowd begins to
take his interest in their own hands.
There has been no changes in the
cabinet this week, although the name
of Governor Allen of Porto Rico is sug
gested to .fill the place that will short
ly, it is believed, be vacated by Long.
Attorney General Douglas of Min
nesota will be in Washington during
the coming week to file charges

BEET SUGAR PROBLEM
Farmers Would Get Eight Dollers a Ton
For Beets if the Price of Silver Had
not Beta Beatea Down ,
Editor Independent: As the states
in which The Independent has its
largest circulation have several beet
sugar factories, any discussion of the
beet , sugar, interest in your columns
will be of interest to many, of your
readers. The great, dailies devote
much space in their editorial columns
.discussing " question connected with
the beet sugar industry that they know
I but very 'little about. These daily pa
pers urge the farmers to do things that
would utterly ruin them financially.
The following editorial I clip from
the Nebraska State Journal . of De
cember 17;
"Uncle , Sam's sugar bill increases
amazingly notwithstanding the grad
ual decrease in the retail price per
pound. It is now $100,000,000 a year,
and we pay out $7o,000,000 to foreign
producers, notwithstanding our recent
accessions of such sue growing isl
ands as Porto Rica, Hawaii and the.
Philippines. It is time the Nebraska
farmers were uracing up and giving
their attention to sugar beets and beet
sugar mills. Our farmers are getting
forehanded enough now to make
neighborhood combinations for the
manufacture of the sugar from the
product of their fields. That is the
method adopted mostly in Germany
and France."
If any farmer in Nebraska or any
other state should follow the advice
set forth in the following quotation
which I quote from the above, "It is
time the Nebraska farmers were brac
ing up and giving their attention to
sugar Deets and beet sugar mills." The
editorial goes on to urge the farmers
of Nebraska to combine and build
sugar mills. While 1 would urge the
Nebraska farmers to plant sugar bee'.s
in large quantities as long as the
three beet sugar factories in this state
would contract to pay such prices for
the sugar beets as they paid during
1901. I would not urge the Nebraska
farmers or the farmers of any other
state in our country to invest one dol
lar in beet sugar mills or factories.
These , editors of the daily papers aro
very free to make general statements,
urging farmers to do this and to, do
that. It is a waste of time to discuss
in a general way any question which
involves farm economics with any f
the editors of the, great dailies. The
only way to discuss such' questions
with the editors, of the dailies 6r be
fore the people is to take some live,
up-to-date object lesson ' and for that
purpose I will take the. tables showing
our imports of sugar from Cuba,, Chi
na and India for. some of the years

I'ExDlanation of the
No. 1, years; No. 2, pounds of sugar
imported; No. 3, import price mado
by the appraisers at the various cus
tom houses; No. 4, prices received by
the producers in their money.)
How an editor of the daily papers
could have the gall to advise the farm
ers of Nebraska to join together and
build sugar mills is more than I can
understand. Just look at the table
showing our imports of sugar from
Cuba more than a billion pounds dur
ing 1901 and the producer in Cuba got
5 1-10 cents (.051) per pound in his
money while the producer in Nebraska
could only get about 2 i-10 cents (.021)
per pound for his raw beet sugar plus
the amount of the tariff which fs
about V-k cents per pound. The editor
of the Journal knows very well that
if this tariff of 1VZ cents per pound Is
taken off or reduced very much that
the three factories that are in Nebras
ka now and all the sugar mills that
might be built would have to be closed
down and become a dead loss to the
people that own them. The editor of
the State Journal knows that there
has been great pressure brought . to
bear on the president and congress to
remove the tariff on the Cuban suga-.
There Is another factor that.' must "be
considered in connection with this
sugar uestIon. I presume that the edi
tor of the State Journal knows but
very little about this "other factor"
and . would like to know less about it.
Ho would tell his readers that it was
overproduction of sugar In the world
that pressed down the price of the Cu
ban sugar as shown in column No. 3.
from five to seventy-five hundredths
(.0575 cents in 1873 to two and four
tenths (.024) cents in 1901. He would
make the same statement in connec
tion with the table 'above showing
our Imports of sugar from India as
well as China.
It was the pressing down of t.h
purchasing power qf the Cuban dollar
from 100 cents in 1873 to 45 cents in
1901 that pressed down the price of the
pound of sugar as shown in column
kNo. 3 from .0575 cents in 1873 to Mi'
cents in 1901 and if what is called the
great financiers of our country In col

lars with gold .which would probably
still further press; down the purchasing
power of the Cuban dollar from 45
cents which it had in 1901 to about 30
cents that it will have during iy02.
this would cause the price of sugar to
decline from Z024 cents per pound ' as
shewn in column No. 3 for 1901 to
about, one -and a half (.015) cents per
pound during 1902. With the purchas
iMfc power of the Cuban dollar at 30
cent the lib cents per pound In our
money would net the. Cuban in his
mcney about five' cents per pound,
vh?ch has been his average price for
the last thirty years. Placing sugar
at 1 cents per pound instead of two
and four-tenths (.024) cents would
probably close every factory in our
country as the large factory at Grand
Island was closed during all last year
because there was not enough sugar
beets to run it. . -

Editor Independent: I. have been
receiving your paper for the time you
agreed to send it, . and can say that
you are publishing a fearless and out
spoken paper. I do not agree with you
on gome thirtts. Neither dojl with
Mr. Bryan. I have been in the reform
movement since Peter Cooper ran for
president. I never was a fusionlst,
but in '96 and 1900 they tied my hands,
also all like me, and it was vote that
or nothing. In 96 I voted for Bryan
and Watson. But how did the dem
ocracy use Watson in 1900; bow did
they use Towne? My first voting was
with the democratic party, the last
time I voted with them was for Gree
ley. The Bryan , democracy (as W3
call it) failed to satisfy the old green
backers on the money plank and I
think that Mr. Bryan said they would
not.'f ' : ..-." ',

It and just for that reason. I believe
he is an honest man and he is the
first reformer of national reputation
who has ever gone east and told thone
fellows Just what they are doing. But
I will never vote for him again as
democrat. If the gold democrats got
control of the convention In 1901.
then he will have to come out of the
party or take the back track and I
don't think that he will do that.
I surely have enjoyed reading your
paper. You keep pretty close tab on

You see what fusion has done in
Kansas. It has disrupted the popu!i.-t
party. A handful of democrats tell u
now that we can indorse them if we
want to. I don't think that we wan
to, at least I don't. I live in a town
ship that hasiven a majority for ev
Bryan. There are more men in it to
the square mile who believe in demo
cratic socialism than in any other
township in the United States. Wo
have a paper that they are trying to
suppress (the Appeal to Reason) anl
we will help him all we can. We would
help you If you were In the same fix.
If they are successful with him. it
will be only a question of timo when
such papers as yours and Bryan's will
have to face the same music. I am a
hopeful creature, so I think that such
things only hurries reform along th
faster. I think that there is an un

Ruler of the universe intended

You know our financial condition on
account of the drouth, and we have to
contribute to paying the handsom
dividends on the watered stock of the
corporations, such as the Standard Oil

last paper that was handed over to
Rockefeller, and will now have to be
gin on the next $16,000,000.
I was a soldier In the civil war and
in 1890 was Allowed a pension of $12
per month. My political opinion-
caused it to be cut $6 under Cleve
land's administration. But they can't

whom I knew and you will likely get
some subscribers from them.
