Joseph Helmsen BEET GROWERS ON THE TARIFF WRITES LETTER GIVING VIEWS ON LOCAL SITUATION If Foreign Sugar is Admitted Duty Free, Beet Sugar Industry Will be Crushed Out—Weighty Points from Level-Headed Norwalk Farmer Editor Gazette.—A level headed beet raiser wrote and sent to his Congressmen, Hon. Frank P. Flint and Hon. James McLachlan, a letter of which the enclosed is a copy and which was published in the Beet Sugar Gazette. If the beet growers all over the country would express their views as freely as Mr. Donnelly has, congress would not be so much in doubt as to what their constituents desire. Yours very truly, A. W. Jones. Norwalk, Cal., April 15, '09. Hon. Frank P. Flint, United States Senator, Washington, D.C. Dear Sir: I am a beet raiser and have put money in an outfit of teams and tools so that I am prepared to keep on in the business. My judgment is it would be disastrous to the beet sugar industry in this country to encourage the importation duty-free from the Philippines of 300,-000 tons of cane sugar. My reasons for believing this are that this movement is not in the interests of the Filipino planter as he exists today. I think I see a movement on foot to put into the hands of foreign capital a large slice of the Philippine lands to be used only in the interests of the capitalists. I believe that the native laborer would not do the work and that coolie la- PROPERTY CHANGING HANDS Williams Bros. report the following changes of realty: The 33 acre ranch formerly owned by Isaac Clemons, located about mile south of town, but sold time ago to S. H. Watson of Los Angeles, has changed hands again. P. Ustick of Omaha having bought it, consideration $16,000. Mr. Ustick has moved his family out here will further improve this ranch, ting out the unimproved portion Valencia oranges. The 15 1-2 acre young Valencia chard adjoining the city limits Anaheim owned by Frank Bowen bought last week by Theodore Lor and B. E. Pavy of Pasadena, sideration $10,500. They expect further improve the property,and out the three acres of vacant land to navels. The seven acre improved ranch B. E. Pancoast just inside the north east limits of Anaheim,has bought by Henry A. Merrick of Angeles, price paid being $6500. Place is all set to navels and Vacias, with good improvements. The 10-acre walnut grove of C.Ellerkamp, located about a mile south of Anaheim, has been purchased by G. G. Tucker of Los Angeles for the sum of $5500. Mr. Tucker has moved onto the property,and remodeling the house,and expo- to greatly improve the property. JACOB STERN MAKES SALE Jacob Stern reports the following sales of realty: To L. G. Dodge of Los Angeles acres of Hazard's sub-division in range county for $1500. My reasons for believing this are that this movement is not in the interests of the Filipino planter as he exists today. I think I see a movement on foot to put into the hands of foreign capital a large slice of the Philippine lands to be used only in the interests of the capitalists. I believe that the native laborer would not do the work and that coolie labor would be demanded, the same as it has been in the Sandwich Islands. We are not prepared to compete with conditions of this kind in this country where the American laborer is enjoying good times and is getting the best of wages in consequence of which the labor we employ comes high compared with the labor of the tropics. I am in favor of giving the American laborer employment at full American wages and to do this a labor crop such as the sugar beet crop is, must be tariff protected. If the tropical sugar is allowed to come into this country duty free to any great extent, beet raising will be crushed out. I think the twenty per cent reduction in the tariff on sugar from Cuba should be cut out as I notice the price of sugar has not been lowered to consumer on account of it, and also notice the Cuban sugar producer gets no benefit from the reduction, as it is very plain the sugar trust so manipulates things as to get it all. I am in favor of increasing the sixty-six factories now in operation in this country to double that number in the next ten years if possible, and from that to go on to finally produce from beets all the sugar the United States consumes. It seems to us that this would be much better than to open the door to the unlimited production of cane sugar in the Philippines, for I look upon the 300,-000 tons as but an entering wedge. I wish to call your attention to the comparatively prosperous condition of beet raisers during the panic of the year before last. Everything moved right along just the same and the preparations were made for the next year's crop with almost no bad effects from the industrial depress- Jacob Stern reports the follow sales of realty: To L.

The eternal problem of how the world will end is in the opinion of many a matter for scientific investigation, and it is curious that the majority believe that the earth will open up and fill up pieces in the most gigantic earthquake ever known, an earthquake th ited production of cane sugar in the Philippines, for I look upon the 300,-000 tons as but an entering wedge. I wish to call your attention to the comparatively prosperous condition of beet raisers during the panic of the year before last. Everything moved right along just the same and the preparations were made for the next year's crop with almost no bad effects from the industrial depression all over the rest of the country. Yours very respectfully, Walter Donnelly. TRAGEDY OF A KISS An El Modena romance: He had not known her long but as she stood in the moonlight a white dress and a blue sash set off her figure so well that he thought he had never seen a prettier picture. And then he did an awful thing; he kissed her. The innocent girl shrank from him in terror, and the young man realized that he had Gone Too Far. Indeed, as the panting girl strove to collect herself sufficiently to express the scorn surging in her bosom, the young man thought of the beating he must endure the next day from her father and brothers, and of the long accounts of the fight that would appear in the newspapers. Fortunately, he had his hat in his hand and turned to go. But the girl struggled to speak; she would express her contempt for his action though it killed her. "When," she said, in a low, faltering voice, full of deep-seated hatred. "are you coming again?" that the end of the world had come is only a pretaste on a small scale of what many eminent scientists believe will be the end of the world. The eternal problem of how the world will end is in the opinion of many a matter for scientific investigation, and it is curious that the majority believe that the earth will open up and fracture into pieces in the most gigantic earthquake ever known, an earthquake that will wipe all life from the globe before the actual destruction of the earth is complete, says Cassell's Saturday Journal. The late Grant Allen firmly believed that the world would end by the crust of the earth eventually giving way beneath the colossal weight above it; and Abbe Dupin, one of the greatest scientists of France, believes that doomsday will begin with a war that will envelope the greatest nations in Europe, this being followed by a plague like of which has never been known, culminating with an earthquake that will practically shake the world to pieces. H. G. Wells, whose scientific prophecies are well known, is, however, of a different opinion. The world will end, he declares, by its becoming entirely frozen over. It is a well-known fact that every year more ice accumulates around the poles; in short, many millions of tons of ice in excess of that of the year previous settle about the earth's extremities each year, and in Mr. Wells' opinion this will gradually extend until the whole world is frozen over and everything is thus destroyed. Several scientists are of opinion we NEW CHANGING HANDS os. report the followrealty: The ranch formerly owned mons, located about one town, but sold some H. Watson of Los Annged hands again, E.

SHE LEARNED SOMETHING The "Talk to Mothers" was over and the earnest settlement worker was having an informal chat with the members of her audience over a cup of tea. "I never come here but what I hear something real useful," said the mother of six small Doughertys. "I'm glad to hear that," said the settlement worker, cordially. "Was there really anything to help you today? I felt so tired, and what I said seemed so very stupid." Indeed, 'twas fine,' Mrs. Dougherty assured her. "And when you spoke about the difference between children and the difference between plants,you said: 'You put your heliotropes and geraniums in the sun to grow,but the fuchsia needs the shade,' says you. And there I've got a lovely fuchsia in a present on my birthday,and I never knew what ailed,to be getting so poor looking,and 'tis because I've had it right out in the sun. You'll never find me missing one of the 'Talks to Mothers' unless I'm sick in my bed." RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT Whereas, The angel of death has again visited our council, and taken from our midst Bro.

Two of the world's greatest scientists firmly aver that the end of the world will be brought about by astronomical conditions. Take Prof. Marienberg, the noted Austrian student. In his opinion the earth will fly from its orbit and come in contact with one of the other planets that may chance to be in a direct line. The earth, being comparatively small, will, of course, get the worst of it, and split into fragments at the collision. But, of course, directly the world swerved from the orbit all living things would die, and such an earthquake take place as would completely put the Italian catastrophe in the shade. Just as interesting is the prognostication of M. Camille Flammarion, one of the greatest living scientists. After many years of study he has arrived at the conclusion that the world will in the twenty-fifth century come across the path of the comet Beila, which crossed our line a few years ago. On this occasion, however, a collision will take place, and Beila being infinitely greater than the earth, a shock may be expected which, he calculates, will be 865 times greater than the shock caused by the collision between two trains, each traveling at sixty-five miles an hour.
