Neb., April 3.-(Spe-dlil With tha reclamation of lh seml arid region of th West the ugr beet ha com In for a good share of attention. I'p to tn present J'eaf Colorado has been the Lading state In the union In the pro duction of thla crop, but there In every indication "that Nebraska la on to be in the front rank aa one of the beet producing states. Heels have been rained In Nebraska for year. Under tha direction and manage ment of Heyward ii. Leavltt of Omaha, now of Scott's Bluff, a factory was built hinl operand Ht Ames, Ne!., nearly a decade ago. All along Hie Matte where U la possible and profitable to Irrigate suc cessfully the stiMar beat Is one of the staple crops. The factory at A men, however, did not prove a "success, as the soil In that portion of the state does not seem particu larly adapted tit beet culture. Since lis abandonment the Nebraska crop has been disposed of to the Colorado factories, grad ually Increasing from year to year, and ha formed a considerable ptr cent of the an nual beet crop. Condition favorable. txperlments conducted in the western part of the state have proved beyond a question of a doubt that the soli and climate condi tiona are most favorable for beet culture. and those of the western counties which depend upon Irrigation for their moisture, particularly Scott's Bluff county, are now taking front rank among the beet producing sections of the country. For several year Concerted effort has been made by the beet sugar growers to induce the Great Western Sugar company, which controls the beet sugar Industry, to locate a factory In thla portion of the alate, but u was only last year that their efforts met with any degree of success. Early In the spring of 1H08, however, It was an nounced that the sugar company had de cided to build a factory In Kebraska, and immediately every effort was put forth by the different towns to Induce the company to choose their particular town tor a fac tory site. - .Scott's Bluff seemed to have Hie ad vantage, however, being centrally located and a thriving town, and early In the sum ' tnir It was announced that that city had been chofien for a location. With Its char acteristic energy the sugar company at once began the purchase of lands adjacent to the town and fall saw the factory begun. Neve Settler Hsia la. Since that time the interest of the west ern end of the state has been centered largely on Hcott's Bluff and the new fac tory. Not alone from thla end of the state has Interest been manifested, however. On of the largest Irrigation canals In the west, and the largest In . tb state, the Farmers' - Mutual canal, was completed, about the same time, and a large portion of the lands under, t .controlled, ,by the. Trl btale Land Comanjv were throw p on the market. An OmahaT concern, the Fayne .In vestment Company, was given the sale of the entire tract, arid throughout the sum mer of I'M conduoted one of the most phenomenally successful' land sales on record In the state. Through the advertis ing matter put forth by this concern, the irrigated tracts, along the North Platte in the westnrn part of the state received such an exploiting as seldom falls to the lot of any community, , and there w as an Immediate rush of new settlers Into the valley. , Scott's Bluff, in the aprlng of 19G8. a peaceful town of about 1,200 people la now vailouaiy estimated at from 2,000 to 2.(00, and the other town adjacent have had a scarcely lesa remarkable growth, with the possible exception of Gerlng, which, being on Inland town has been at a dis advantage, though show ing some ' effects of the general awakening. Dl Preparation Made. The factory will be ready to take car of thla year's crop of beets and the acre ag of beets for the 1910 season la variously stlmated at frcm 11,000 acre upward. At Interval along the railroad, "dumps" have been built to load the beet Into cars, thus doing away entirely with lonij haul, which TOIAN By Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Black Duck, Minn.

As compared with the Colorado factories, Nebraska' factory will be second to none. The estimated cust of .the plant is H.MO.OiiO. which Is probably conservative, and there I a strong probability that with continued success In beet rslslng. one factory will be unable to handle the entire crop of beets raited on land tributary to It. Several hundred workmen are pushing the work to the utmost, and hundred of car loads of material are r.ow on the ground and more on the way. Much of the ma chinery In the old factory at Ames Is avail able, and that will be used so far a it Is possible to do so. Those In charge of the work say that nothing will be Omitted to make this one of the largest and most com plete beet sugar factories In th country. Kiuployartent for Many. During the fall and winter, when the factory Is running full force, 400 or 500 per sons will be employed, and this will be de creased to about 100 during the dull season. Every effort is being made by the sugar people to Induce their employe to locate permanently. A large tract of the land pur chased adjacent to the factory has been platted and divided Into lots, which are sold at a reasonable price and on exceptionally eay terms, an I scores, and even hundred of houses and dwellings of different de scriptions are now erected or In course of construction. No town In the tat can compare with Scott's Bluff In th amount of building and general Improvement that Is being done, and the major part of It Is of a character that will reflect credit not only on the town Itself, and lta cltiiens, but on the state at large. Lands that but three years, and even two years ago were but raw prairie, are now dotted with substantial farm houses, the land Is netted with Irrigation lateral and already work has begun In preparing the land for beets and other crops. Prediction is made that five year will ,se the Nortl Platte valle ythe most thickly settled part of the state, and the most Important, from th standpoint of crop value, of any por tion of Nebraska. Season Favorable. The present season look very favorable for the Nebraska beet raisers, as lack of Co-operation between the Colorado beet grower and the sugar company seem to point to a considerable tleereate in the acreage there, Which will mean, of course, that the Nebraska crop will be more than ordinarily Important. Beet sugar has at tained great Importance In supplying the demand for this staple, the quality twlng excellent, and any marked decrease In pro duction Is certain to have considerable effect. Corn is king, and Nebraska's production of that greatest of cereals alone would J give It an Important place, but In the fu ture, In estimating the resources of th state, the vast, fertile Irrigated districts of the western end of the state, with their thousands of prosperous farmers and their fields of sugar beet will furnish an item that is bound to prove a most Important one. Pralrl Fire Damsge Rxagaerated. NORTH PLATTE, Neb., April 8-tSpe-clal.) Statements have been published with reference to the fire which occurred in the south part of this county which greatly exaggerated the actual loss. Some people who hav been perhap overly ex cited have gone so far as to call for state aid. Borne have claimed that the damage was as great' a $1,000,000. A con servative estimate of ' the entire damage would probably not exceed $200,000. Adjust ers for the different insurance companies have gone over th land which was burnt and make this estimate. There W AS' In surance, which will total about 125,000,' It la understood that the Burlington Railroad company is liable for the damage caaed, by the fire and no doubt those Injured will be able to secure the amount of their dim.' ages from th railroad company. If the railroad company doe not settle within a reasonable time there will be a great many suits against it. Th greatest loss was of course, th range, but there will not be any great suffering to stock unless winter weather should return. Traveling Men's Smoker.

MANY REGISTER TO VOTE (Continued from First Page.) cheers to be followed by an awful silence and then a few hisses when h continued: "for In talking for prohibition one ap peals to the prejudice and the passion of men and women. When talking prohibition one appeals to the reanon of his audience." "I recognize that the W-omen of the Women Christian Temperance union whl are here today are doing a good work and trying to uplift humanity and in their own opinion they are accomplishing much good. But they, are narrow minded and they are long on prejudice." Rejoinder Made. When thl wai greeted, with a storm of hisses which continued for some time1, Mr. Darrow said. "Doesn't that prove It?"

One young man, who was netteld at some thing that had been said, falling to catch the. speaker' eye-, finally yelled out above th din and noise: "I1 demand recognition, sir;-1 demand recognition f ,f The prohibitionists had to laugh at that. At the conclusion of his talk Mr. Darrow asked his audience If the legislature gave the city permission to make all Its own laws and provide punishment (or violation, would the town elect prohibitionists or would It elect Its most liberal minded men, men who had bad experience and who had Suffered, and who knew the weakness and the weaknesses of humanity.
