The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Kuchel, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY...DECEMBER 21, 1891. THE MAGNITUDE OF THE SUGAR INDUSTRY. GERMANY produces annually 1,260,000 tons of sugar, France 775,000 tons, Austria 760,000 tons, Russia 420,000 tons and Denmark 140,000 tons. Last year these five nations produced upwards of 2,355,000 tons of this staple article of commerce. All the other countries of the earth, including the United States, produced but the paltry amount of 25,000 tons, little more than one per cent of the output of the live mentioned European nations. Last year we sent abroad nearly two hundred millions of dollars for sugar. This perpetual outgo of money is in a fair way of being checked by the recently adopted Government bounty on sugar. In order to keep this vast amount of money at home, as well as to introduce a new industry into the affairs of the nation, the statesmen of the republic have offered this bounty, to continue for a period of fifteen years upon every pound of sugar produced in this country. We think it is stating the case very mildly to say that the bounty money to come to California during the lifetime of the bounty law, will go beyond ten million dollars. This year alone the bounties to the three factories at Chino, Alvarado and Watsonville aggregated $161,000; and the season at Chino was so short, owing to the small time given the factory to get into readiness for operations, as well as to the other disadvantages that militated against the first crop, but which will be obviated next year, as practically to amount to less than one half of the average season's run. Next year the factory will work up four times the quantity of beets handled this year, the bounty to the three factories will go to a quarter of a million of dollars, and it will undoubtedly go on increasing, what with the establishment of new factories and the increased area planted to beets, with each succeeding year thereafter. During the fourteen years remaining of the lifetime of this necessary, in order to form this corporation, that we pay up ten per cent of the cost of the factory. We must pay $12 50 per acre, or $37,500. Then a syndicate of German capitalists, who know all about the sugar business, and know furthermore that we have here the finest best land in the world, stand ready to advance the remaining ninety per cent, or $337,500, for the completion of the factory. Was there ever so liberal an offer made a community? In another column the profits of the factory are given. It is shown that in one year the receipts overbalance the expenditures by $132,318. This is sufficient to pay for the cost of the factory in three years' time if necessary, or a comfortable dividend may be declared, letting the factory pay for itself in five years. These figures are given at length, and are based upon the results of practical experience. Now we have a word for the people of Anaheim. This is the first time in the history of the United States that a co-operative sugar factory is to be established in this country. This is the first time that the benefits of the Government bounty are to be given the people. We have it on the best authority that only two co-operative factories are to be erected in California. The profits are so manifest that in future capitalists will combine to erect the factories and reap the benefits of the bounty themselves. There is an untold mint of money awaiting them if they do it. The first co-operative sugar factory is to be established here. That is, it will be established here if we plant a sufficient acreage to beests. It would seem that this beneficent bounty law had been enacted for our especial benefit. Are we going to build this factory, then, or shall we allow it to slip from our grasp? After this enterprise has approached so closely to our doors, let it go will mean death to us, and nothing short of it. We shall never be anything but a sleepy village—never amount to a row of beans—never be mentioned in the same breath with the dozens of other lively, buatling, vigorous and growing cities and towns springing up all around us. But if we build this factory we shall take prominent rank among them, and perhaps lead them all. Let us build the factory. Let us build it even if it should take every dollar we can rake and scrape if you can have but a single old idea of keeping Christmas of waiting and watching for the new day. And in the southwest there are people who say that all the oxen in their mangers knees. And some people say, era always bud on that night. Now, besides having light on one can, have festivity too. You to be eaten in the oldest time, buff puss in the corner and were played. There was mass cheats were searched for clothes burnt to blacken faces on looks of eyebrows and musculus. There are so many things hardly knows where to begin: play; then dancing under; you have seen pictures of you can remember Christmas That custom began when girls fully afraid of being old maid to believe that if no one kisses the mistletoe bough they married. But if all the bees branch before her turn came as not being kissed at all. Poultry raisers complain and turkeys dying of swelled Farmera' Healing Liniment to cure this.

Next year the factory will work up four times the quantity of beets handled this year, the bounty to the three factories will go to a quarter of a million of dollars, and it will undoubtedly go on increasing, what with the establishment of new factories and the increased area planted to beets, with each succeeding year thereafter. During the fourteen years yet remaining of the lifetime of this bounty law we think it reasonable to say that the bounties to California sugar producers will amount to ten million dollars—perhaps it will amount to double that sum. California is able to supply the United States with sugar. We electrified the world with our gigantic output of the precious metals, and when men came to believe we could do nothing but work our mines, we showed that in fruits and cereals we could lead the nations of the earth. We believe that in twenty years California will add another industry to her resources, of such grand proportions that it will dwarf into comparative insignificance her noble achievements of the past. It is not too much to say, then, that in twenty years our exports of sugar will go to one hundred millions of dollars annually. We are satisfied that in this one single industry this State is yet destined to show the world its most electrical demonstration. In twenty years, while our population is now but little more than a million souls, California will take rank with the most populous States in the Union, while in riches it will stand above them simply unparalleled. We shall be a great manufacturing center, and sugar will be the one great factor in this great development. Instead of producing the paltry pittance of four thousand tons of sugar per annum, we shall take conspicuous rank with the sugar producing nations of Europe. The beginning of this great industry in France and Germany was made precisely as being done in the United States. The industry was fostered by royal bounty, and from nothing it has grown to such magnificent proportions as to be the wonder and the admiration of the earth. To-day in Germany the sugar industry pays the Government a royalty aggregating fifty millions of dollars annually. No other revenue of the Kaiser goes so far to sustain his matchless military organization. Without it, the burden of the army would be well-nigh unbearable. The Government collects a royalty of two cents upon every pound of sugar produced within the empire. In Denmark the royalty is 32 cents per pound, and throughout Europe it ranges between that amount and the lower standard ruling in France and Germany. Were it not for the royalties collected from this industry, perhaps there would be a general disarmament among the nations of Europe! Our sugar output is insignificant beside After this enterprise has approached so closely to our doors, to let it go will mean death to us, and nothing short of it. We shall never be anything but a sleepy village—never amount to a row of beans—never be mentioned in the same breath with the dozens of other lively, bustling, vigorous and growing cities and towns springing up all around us. But if we build this factory we shall take prominent rank among them, and perhaps lead them all. Let us build the factory. Let us build it even if it should take every dollar we can rake and scrape together. We think the indications are good for the Stearns Ranchos Company subscribing for five hundred shares in the sugar factory. The proposition will be presented to the favorable consideration of the Board of Directors of the company at their approaching meeting in San Francisco. Col. R. J. Northam, the local agent of the company, is very favorably impressed with the practicability of starting the factory here, and will no doubt present the matter to his company in the most favorable light. He will also probably himself subscribe for a number of shares. With Col. Northam and the land company subscribing for large blocks of stock, the factory will be an assured fact. The Chilean Judge of Crimes has submitted his findings on the outrage at Valparaíso. Four men are held on the charge of assaulting the Baltimore sailors; the rest are acquitted. A report will probably be rendered on these findings. The affairs between the two governments are strained, and active hostilities may yet be provoked. A San Francisco dispatch of yesterday shows that preparations for warfare continue. It says: The cruiser San Francisco came down from Mare Island navy-yard this morning and anchored in the stream. It is expected that she will put to sea shortly. The entire crew was busy on Monday taking aboard ammunition, and she now has no less than 200 tons stowed away in her capacious magazines. A large portion of this is labeled "For the Charleston," and this will be transferred to that vessel somewhere to the south. To-morrow the San Francisco will still further increase her supply of coal and will be ready to proceed to any part of the world. It is stated that no orders have been received regarding her future movements, but every man on board believes that she will at once proceed to Chile to take part in a naval demonstration there. It was the general impression that the Charleston would come to this port from Honolulu, but the fact that such a quantity of innuitions of war intended for her are on board the San Francisco seems to indicate that she has received orders to meet the latter vessel at some Central American port, probably Acapulco, where the ammunition would be transferred, both ships coal and proceed to Chile together. This is further borne out by the fact that the Charleston's mail is held here for the San Francisco. The crew is elated over the prospect of having a brush with Chile. Christmas Eve.

SEED B Kaiser goes so far to sustain his matchless military organization. Without it, the burden of the army would be well-nigh unbearable. The Government collects a royalty of two cents upon every pound of sugar produced within the empire. In Denmark the royalty is 32 cents per pound, and throughout Europe it ranges between that amount and the lower standard ruling in France and Germany. Were it not for the royalties collected from this industry, perhaps there would be a general disarmament among the nations of Europe! Our sugar output is insignificant beside that of the countries of the old world. We produce but one per cent of the output of the five mentioned European nations. For the purpose of fostering this industry a bounty is offered of two cents on every pound of sugar produced in the country during fifteen years. California is the first State to take advantage of this great stroke of statesmanship. The Chino factory, the largest in the world, is likewise the first to be created to refine sugar at a single turn. The improvement in sugar machinery is of course alone accountable for this. In order to secure the establishment of the factory at Chino a land donation aggregating a quarter of a million dollars was made the Oxnards by Richard Gird. The factory has made Gird rich, and has sent the name of Chino to the four corners of the earth. The people of Anaheim, Garden Grove and Westminster are now in a fair way of reaping the benefit of the introduction of this industry. The establishment of a cooperative factory is now being agitated; and satisfactory advances are being made. In previous issues we have recounted the benefits to accrue to us by the establishment of this factory. We have shown that nothing under the sun would so materially advance our interests. We should have more money expended for boots alone in this valley than is now paid for all our products combined. And our business men would have the benefit of a yearly payroll going to $56,000. In five years our bounties would go to $508,000, enough to pay for the factory and leave a comfortable little fortune to us besides. To get this industry started here, it is necessary to bond 3,000 acres of land to be planted to boots for a term of five years. It It was the general impression that the Charleston would come to this port from Honolulu, but the fact that such a quantity of munitions of war intended for her are on board the San Francisco seems to indicate that she has received orders to meet the latter vessel at some Central American port, probably Acapulco, where the ammunition would be transferred, both ships coal and proceed to Chile together. This is further horned out by the fact that the Charleston's mail is held here for the San Francisco. The crew is elated over the prospect of having a brush with Chile. Christmas Eve. Of all the other nights of the year this is the one when the house must be brightest and best. Long ago in England it was the custom to light then the old Yule clog, or Yule log, as it was called. Heap on more wood—the wind is chill! But let it whistle as it will. We'll keep our Christmas merry still. No one has ever known exactly where the word Yule came from, only that it was an old, old word that had always meant a time of great activity. But the clog? There has never been any doubt about that—the very biggest log to be found—or the biggest and most twisted of all the roots in the forest. And such a time of merry-making as there was when men went out to haul it in! Such fun and frolic! Such songs and laughter! Why, the old bullads of England are full of it all. Once indoors the log was put on the kitchen floor (kitchens were great halls in those days), some one singing: Come bring with a noise, My merrie, merrie byes, The Christmas log to the firing, While my good dame she Bids ye all be free, And drink to your heart's desiring. Then each member of the household stood on the center of the log and sang his Yule song or drank a merry Christmas and happy New Year to all. And then the log was put into the fireplace and lighted with a brand of last year's log. No good luck would come, though, if that old brand was lost or if the fire was lighted by some one who did not have clean hands. Wash your hands or else the fire Will not tend to your desire; Unwashed hands, ye maldens know, Dead the fire, though ye blow. When some hundred odd years ago the date of Christmas was changed, men who had lighted logs in January still clung to the old date. For that reason to-day many people wait till Twelfth Night (twelve days after Christmas) and light it then. In places where Twelfth Night is kept in many clubs and houses, the clog is lighted the evening before. Stories are told, songs are sung, good healths are drunk and festivity reigns. But whether you have the yule-log or not be sure to have light on Christmas eve, even NEW ADVERTISEMENTS Grand Inter-Urban -TUG-OF-WARTo take place at REISER'S OPERA-HOUSE.
