THE nsMimption that a state olRco

delusion. Precedents of oflloials 1m

There are al o a number of precedent

A New Orleans newspaper that should
bo well informed on the subject of sugar
sajs : "With the prospect of n short
sugar crop there is reason to expect that
the United States will have to draw
upon Kuiopcan supplies of beet sugar
later in tlio season. This prospect lias
already assisted hi the advance inLm-
on. " The market has been steadily
row ing stronger for some time past ,
bete having been two advances of one-
ighth of a cent each in the now prod-
ict. The causes assigned for these ad-
anccatirocimparathel } light supplies
f sugar in Europe and the pros-
ii-et that the I'ubm crop will
'all c msidetnbly below that of last
.casoti. If theie ib anj thing in the pie-
iction that there will bo an increased
eiiiand for the buet sugar product of
Europe , it must follow that the same in-
: lustry in this country will bo eorro-
pondingly stimulated by the anticipated
hortago. Sjmo color is ghon lo the
.tiilement . Unit the eauo sug.tr supply
o bo short by the fact that the price of
ho law product is going up , with a
nospcct of going considerably higher
jet.
jet.If
If it bo true that there is a prospect of
lighcr prices for sugar and an increased
[ leinand for the boot product on account
if reduced production in the great cane
iiigar districts , it is a matter of some
nterest to those who are engaged in the
sugar beet industry in Nebraska. Thai
> riees are advancing is undeniable , and
tlio fact that the ad\.iueo extends all
o\er the world indicates that it is due
o the operation of the law of supply and
demand rather than to speculation. II
may prove to bo only temporary , but
t has the appearance of being genuine
Such a strengthening of the raw sugai
.narktt at n time when the tendency o :
prices of nearly all commodities is down
waid where any change whatever i :
noted , should bo regateled as cnoiura-
ging by producers. The beet sugar Indus
try of this state , though yet In its infancy
: md no doubt conducted lesad
I'ajitageoiiHly than it will be when it ha1
bee ) ine better established , ha- > already
ppov en highly profitable at such pi ice-
as hae pi oviiilcd. It cannot be doublet'
that the sugar demand will increase ii
ptopoitlon to the world's giowth ir
population and wealth , and this mean-
that new sources of supply must bo Initi
under tribute to meet it. There is m
longer any need of proof that Nebraski
boil is in the highest dogieo suited U
sugar beet culture. Unlike many otlioi
agricultural products the sugar bee
cannot be successfully cultivated ovorv
whoio. There are favoied localitie
in which the conditions of soi
and climate are adapteel lo it
and such conditions exist ii
this state , as lias ah e.idy been practicall ;
demonstrated by the development vvhlcl
this young industry lias attained hoio Ii
a few j eai s.
Tlio present advance in the price o
raw sugar as a icsult of an anticipate )
shortage in production may have n
great significance , but it certalnl ,
alloidssomo eneouiagement to the pit :
ducer. It proves to the beet giowo
that the production of the cane district
is not likely to destroy his market
though if he is a philosopher ho need
no evidence that so staple an article u
sugar must always bo in demand.

Tlio appointment of Judge Loclnen e
Minnesota as commissioner of pension
is generally commended. IIo is hiiiise
an old soldier , having gene into the wn
as a member of the First Mmnciot
legimenl , and his military iccord i
highly honoiable ? though ho did nf
attain high innk. Although a demi
ciat he was appointed to a judgeship 1 :
a republican governor and was twice n
elected. Ills candidacy for the con
missionership was endorsed by the n
publican legislature of Mimics ) ti
These facts indicate that ho is not n
olTcnsu o partisan. It is understood to 1

rolls , and If this task woio committed
a man who , like the hourotary of the li
torior , was not a soldier , and might hav
litllo interest In the welfare of the vu
eians , it is easy to understand that thei
would bo danger of much injustice boil
done. A man having nocjnimoii '
pathy with tlio old soldiers would' 1
very likely to sacrifice them in the I
toio t of his i pularity with those wb
are demanding a radical change in tli
pension pul'oy ' of the government ,
will thoiof n-o bo reassuring to the ve
eians to know that one of the
own number , with an excollei
record m a soldier , and who has ulwn
heartily sympathised with .those wl
wore deserving and justly entitled

in charge the work of revising t

SOUTH CAKOUNA has a unique law ,
pas-cd by Iho last loglslaluro , and to go

governor is Iho head , will appoint Iho
saloon keepers in all Hie cilies and low us ,

Platte County Argus The state oxecu
live committee of the Nebraska Millets as
sociation was down at Lincoln ilia liodv ,
protesting against the passigoof the max
imum Height rate bill This committee , in
ti-eiraddiess to the legislature , setfotth
that there weio several million dollars In
vested in upwards of .300 Homing mills in
Nebraska , that these mills eniplo.yedbo
twecu 'J.OOO and ! ) 000 men and that the pro
posed maximum freight rate bill would ralso
the f reiglit rate on " 00 miles and ov er for ship
ments of Hour I cents on the 100 pounds , and
if thlswasdono it would bo a scilous If not
fatal blow to the milling industr ) of the state
All of this sounds pitiful if not heirt-
icnding But it Is all twaddle It does not
e-ontam even so much common sense as Sen
ator Ninth's statement that the proposed
bill will raise the freighton coin , wheat , etc
Tlio mllleis of Nebriska have a specill ] rate
as follows On shipments of 100 miles and
under , 'J"i pentout off , over 100 and less than
200 miles , 'U\ per cent off. 'JOO miles and
over 40 per e-ont off So the railioid com
panies threatened the Millers assoclition
that if they did not protest against the
passigo of this maximum fieight i.ito bill
the companies would cine-el their sped il
rates and henceforth chat go them not simply
all the tailff will bear but all tlio law will
.allow Heneo the milleis executive com
mittee hastened to Lincoln and began to
protest The millets hive a speciil rite of
from " . " > to 40 per tent less than the published
tiiitT sbcot The prop-sod ft eight tale bill
will reduce the regular fieight i.ates to
within a fraction of the millers' special rate
of 40 per cent How bungling is the effort
to show that the proposed bill will raise the
fids-lit The milleis assoeiitlon lias fool-
ishl ) allosvcd the toipoiatians to use them
as one of their m inv clubs to beat down tlio
people In their effott to establish justice be
tween the tailioad coipoi.itions and tbo
oilier commcKt.il industrial and agiicul-
turil inteicsts of Nebraska , and to estab
lish the fact that ladrout e-ompinles are
amenable to the laws of the state the s line
as aie the citl/cns of the state
The truth of the matter Is , If the milling
industiv is so dependent upon u low and
icasoniblo fieight rate , the proper place for
thorn Is on llio side of the people who have
the power and will see to It tint fieight
1.1 tea will henceforth be low and tcasonable.
