[ From Monclny's Dully. ]
The sugar campaign at the factory
of the American Ilect Sugar company
in Norfolk IB on. The wheels of the
Institution started moving at ? o'clock
this morning and ever since then a
constant string of great , fat beets
have been journeying sugarward
through the hundreds of passageways -
ways , chutes , knives and tanks at
4he factory.
The First Beet.
The very first beet to bo thrown
into the trough for the campaign of
3003 was tossed Into the channel by
the superintendent , N. A. Ixickwood
At 7. A swift current of water
washed it quickly into the inter
ior of the factory and from here it
Vihot up to the top to bo chopped into
shreds. Then it started In to go the
rounds of the various chemical pro
cesses and by tomorrow morning it
will fall out , a bunch of tiny white
> granules of sweetness , Into a , sack.
After it is tied tightly the sack
will he packed into a freight car and
shipped to a jobber in Omaha and be
fore many days arc gone someone
TV ill be eating the prepared beet in
the breakfast coffee.
The stream of water was started
into the factory about an hour before
the main machinery began to whirl ,
And by 7 o'clock the entire force of
laborers and mechanics had begun
their campaign's work.
There are 250 men hired at the
factory and the revenue from their
labor , which is high and steady , is
all spent among the merchants of
Norfolk. The force which began
work this morning are on duty for
twelve hours straight , the shift
changing at 7 tonight. Every other
week the shifts change about so that
those who work nights now may work
during the daytime.
The factory is expected , according
to Manager .1. N. Bundlck , to have
the largest average run this year it
has ever known. The increased ca
pacity is duo to extensive improve
ments which were made during the
summer.
Beets have been coming into the
sheds for the past week and they are
testing up" better than had been ex
pected. The wet weather has not
injured the saccharine roots what
soever.
From now on trainloads and wagon-
loads will be moving into the fac
tory yards at all hours of the day.

C. P. Michael Threatens Fre
mont Newsdealers.
WARNED LOCAL MERCHANTS.
Sayii People Must Stop Selling Sen
sational Yellowback Journals or he
Will Have Them Prosecuted Fre
mont People Still Sell.
ll'Ydiii Tlli'mlny'H Dallv. ]
C. P. Michael of ( tils city , claimIng -
Ing to represent ( ho International
Reform society , has stirred up con
siderable excitement In Fremont by
giving warning to all newsdealers
there that they would have to quit
selling yellowback novels and period
icals like Vanity Fair and the Stan
dard. Before operating thorn Mr.
Michael warned all newsdealers In
Norfolk that , they must stop Helling
the stuff or be prosecuted , and some
of them have compiled with tint de
mand.
The Fremont Tribune lias this to
say regarding the action thorn :
Fremont dealers who continue to
sell yellowback novels and period
icals like tlie Police ( In/otto and Van
ity Fair , stand threatened with pros
ecution by a man living at Norfolk ,
who claims to represent the Interna
tional Reform society. Tills Individ
ual Is O. P. Michael. Ho was In thn
city Saturday and took occasion to
visit every flows and book sloro and
Inform ttie proprietors that they must
take objectionable publication ! ) from
off tlioir shelves and refuse to handle
them , or suffer the alternative of pun
ishment undur an alleged state law
that lie quoted.
This is the first time that any such
stop has over boon taken In Fremont ,
and no ono here Hooms to know any
thing about It. Michael is a stranger
hero and so far as Is known has not
secured the cooperation of any local
organization In his campaign to ox-
pnngo cheap and sensational litera
tim ) from the counters of ( lie news
stores. Tlie dealers look upon his
appearance here as an Intrusion on
the part of a rank outsider who has
no interest In Fremont. They are
considerably Incensed over the
throats of prosecution and unless
confronted witli an Ironclad section
of the statutes on the subject , will
probably go ahead as before without
any regard to tlie warning of the gen
tleman from Norfolk
In justice to the dealers , It should
bi > said that none of them have been
making any attempt to enlarge tin1
sale of the class of litoraturoobjoctod
to , lint as there is a considerable call
for those publications they feel
obliged to carry them in stock in or
der to satisfy tlie demand. The cru
sade against the nickel and dime nov
els is based on the theory that they
are corrupting the boys who read
them. The dealers , however , say
thai more of those.1 stories are sold
to men and women than to hoys.
Never Heard of Sappho.
When making Ills ( tails upon the
dealers , Michael did not at once state
wlio lie was , merely saying that lie
represented the International Itoforin
society. Finally he gave his name'
and said lie was from Norfolk. Ho
said that his society was determined
to stamp out "blood and thunder" lit
erature , storkw of crime and immoral
and sensational publications , to the
host of Its ability.
"Don't yon know that when yon
start out to suppress a paper or a
book on the ground of Indecency , yon
merely advertise it ? " asked ono of
the men who suits nil kinds of liter
ature. "Don't yon remember the
boom 'Sappho' had when thoattcmpls
were being made to rule it off the
stage and out of print ? "
"Sappho. What is that ? 1 never
heard of it , " rescinded tlie gentle
man.
"Von never. Well , I suppose yon
have read 'The Story of Mary Mac-
Lane. ' "
"No. I have hoard of It , but don't
know what sort of a book it Is. "
"Ferninst" Stories of Crime. "
Michael declared that his society
was attempting to stop the sale of
all "bhxid and thunder" books as
well as stories of crime , on account
of their effect on young minds. Ono
of tlie dealers told him that lie had
better begin by cutting off tlie sale of
all newspapers , which were largely
tilled with accounts of crime , and
that If all stories containing that el
ement were ruled out , the supply of
literature remaining would bo very
scanty.
it is not known here whether any
similar effort has boon made else
where in the state to do away with
the sale of trashy and sensational lit
erature. The dealers In Fremont are
careful , as a rule , about letting these
stories and papers go out. There are
four principal merchants who handle
them , who generally take Into con
sideration the ago and mental ca
pacity of anyone who asks to buy
thorn. Instances are frequent where
young boys who have asked for them
have gone away without them.
There Is not much fear on the part
of the dealers that the threats of
prosecution will bo carried out They
are now looking up the state laws to
see just what ground they occupy ,
and if they do not find any absolute
retitrlcllons ( hey will probably con
tinue to supply such literature an
the public calls for.
The dime novel and sonmilinnul
weekly miles In Fremont are not
a large Item in tlie business of the lo
cal dealers , who find the monthly
mngay.lnc.M and standard weeklies far
the hotter seller *

WOULD BRING FACTORIES HERE ,
No Reason Why Norfolk Should Not
Support Industries the Same
as Other Cities.
I From WuOiU'Mlay'H Dally. 1
"There Is no reason why Norfolk
should not have a number of factories
and Industries siic.ii as other cities of
its class support , and I believe the
Commercial club would do well to
provide moans for Inducing tlio.ni to
come in. " said a prominent Norfolk
business man today and ono who
lias done a great deal , himself , in
building up Industries for the city.
"Tho.ro are a great many things that
could thrive here , such as factories
dealing with oils , paint , starch and
the liko. There are a number of in
dustries which could lie made paying
pro | > sitlons here as we.ll as anywhere
else , and with a little inducement they
could bo brought in. We could well
afford to send a committee out to in
vestigate the Institutions which could

not Norfolk ? "
