THE DANGER IN SUGAR
Industry in Which the United
States Should Lead.
YET THE COOLIE TRADE THRIVES
Supported by American Consumers, Ig
norant of tho Dupn to Which
May Bo Kspotod.
Tiw people probably tne worm oyer,
MiticalarlT in this aotive, vigorons
tals into their tea and ooffee, ever stop
to consider the origin of sugar, its cen
turies of nse and improvement, its en
ormous factorship in trade channels
ramifying the complete circle of the
globe, in almost every nation, of every
clime, and the prodigious figures
reached in the volume of its manu
facture and consumption. A brief
synopsis of the growth of this remark
able produot might not prove uninter
esting to the reader hereof. Formerly
chemists called every sweet substance
sugar. The original habitat of sugar
cane has never been fully established,
but so far as known, was first cultivat
ed in the oountry from China to Ben
gal, and did not reach the West from
India until a later date. The art of
boiling sugar was known in Oangetio
India from which it was carried to
China during the first half of the sev
enth century, dot, sngar renuing was
not known, for the Chinese learned the
use of ashes for this purpose only in
(he Mongol period and from European
visitors. Cane sugar was first analytic
ally made practical in 1610 by Fra
brizio Bartoli, who isolated the sugar
of milk and proved its individuality.
Not, however, until the 18th century
did Marggraf make the important dis
covery that the juices of beets, carrots,
eta. were identical with one another
and with sugar of cane. It is remark
able how the trade centers of sugar
have during the ages varied. Sugar
refining was developed by the Arabian
nhysioians. In the age of discovery
the Spaniards became the producers of
susar cultivation, being planted by
them in Maderia in 1420, carried to
San Domingo in 1404, and thence into
the West Indies and South America in
the 16th century, and from the duties
levied by Charles V, that monarch ob
tained funds to build his palaces at
- Madrid and Toledo. In the Middle
Ages, Venioe was the great European
center of the sugar trade and toward
the end of the 15th century, it is re
corded of a Venetian citizen being
awarded 100,000 orowns for his inven
tion of loaf sugar.
The earliest reference to sugar in
Great Britain is that of 100,000 pounds
shipped to London in 1319 in exchange
for wooL At this same time the ao
oonntsof the chamberlain of Scotland
show the payment of 1 shilling OX
pence per pound for sugar, or about
47 M cents per pound in United States
money. Throughout Europe it con
tinued to be quite a costly luxury, be
ing used for medioinal purposes only,
until increasing use of tea and ooffee,
in the 18th oentury, brought it into
as it is today the list of staple pro
ducts. The first discovery of common
sugar in beet root referred to above,
was in 1747, by Sigmnnd Marggraf,
but no practical use of his disoovery
was made until his pupil and snooes-
sor, Franz Carl Aohaed, in Silesia, in
1801, took up his sugar predecessor's
work and established a beet-sugar fac
tory. To show the phenomenal growth
of this produot, the consumption of
susar in Great Britain in 1700 was
10,000 tons; in 1800, upwards of 150,
000 tons, and in 1885, it had grown to
over 1,250,000 tons.
In Europe it is an industry of na
tional importance, especially in Ger
many, which nation oontrols an im
mense output The world's product a
few years ago was about 1,750,000
tons, the greatest consumers of which
are the Gothio and Teutonio stock, the
English and their offshoots being the
highest. The output in Europe of beet
toot a few years ago was 85,000,000
tons, and its product in sugar 1,811,
uJf too tons. Crops range from five tons
of root per aore in Russia, to nine tons
in Germany, while in England it has
risen to twelve tons per aore. It takes
about fourteen tons of root per ton of
sugar generally in Europe, the propor
tion of saccharine matter being 7 per
oent now, to 4 per cent twenty years
ago.
Where Do Americans Stand
Having given the above very brief
synopsis of the history of sugar, let
ns now look for a moment at the post
tion of the United States in this induS'
try and the possible dangers constantly
surrounding us, particularly on the
Western coast, from importations from
Chinese-made sugar, and realize the
consequence of paying tribute to foreign
labor, foreign capital and foreign ships
in an article placed upon neatly every
table in the land; from the banquet
table of the rioh, to the lowly, humble,
uncovered board, serving as table, in
the lowliest cottage of its poorest in'
habitant, and deduce, if possible our
remedy in the matter. It will be oon
oeded, we think, that the American
workmen, as a whole, reoeive more pay
than corresponding labor in any other
country; are the most prosperous; have
more money to obtain their desires, and
consume more of tne necessaries and
luxuries of life, generally speaking,
than those of any other nation, yet it is
a singular faot that in the consumption
of suirar they are behind the English
about 14 per oent, the proportion being
about 781 pounds per capita in Great
nritiiln. to 591 J pounas per capita in
thA United Statoa. For a long term
the working classes have groaned under
AamwaiMd times, connniwa sazanon,
,j.a want of amnions eut, and It ii of
and to our own home people of the
Paoifio ooast we desire to speak more
directly, with all the sincerity words
may impress. We have called upon
our lawmakers to protect them from
the notoriously cheap labor aoross the
Paoifio, by the passage of the exclusion
aot, yet every day we are aiders and
abettors in sending money to that
filthy, pestilential, disease-spreading
raoe. Just think of this for one mo
ment! Daring the years 1894-1895,
the people of Oregon and Washington
paid to foreign manufacturers and pro
ducers in Honsr Kong the enormous
sum or $1,000,000 for Chinese sugar
alone: this appalling figure, made up
from the quarters, halves and dollars
of the people, never to return. Just
think of it I Could this amount have
been retained among ourselves, what a
wonderful factor those 1,000,000 hard
earned dollars would have been during
the many hard, hard months of econo
mizing and pinohing and starving
through which we have just passed. If
it were necessary that we should buy a
a necessary staple like sugar abroad in
order that we might sell our surplus
of some other produots, we might as
well, perhaps, buy sugar as anythng
else, but suoh is not the necessity, we
can sell our products at tne worm s
price, which is our market with
others, and what we do when we ex
port If in return, however, for our
products we reoeive baok coin in pay
ment we are just that muoh better off.
The pernioions trade in Chinese sugars
whioh has grown to large proportions
on our Paoifio ooast, is deplorable to
think of. Americans, free working-
men, supporting the labor of a race of
people born in poverty, reared in
squalor and living in pestilenoe and
disease. Yon have but to walk tnrougn
any oity of any consequence, having a
Chinese quarter, made to a oertain ex
tent wholesome by the sanitary laws of
a better civilization surrounding them
to realize the beggary, the stench, the
nauseous handling of a moribund pop
ulation whose labor exists upon the
payment of 12 oents for a day's labor.
We have seen how the Chinese live in
our own midst, thousands of them hud
dled and bunked together in dark, nar
row rooms, void of ventilation, the foul
stench of whioh makes the strongest
heart wow sick, and draw our own
conclusions, in buying Chinese sugar.
A gentleman who came to America
when the cholera and plague prevailed
in the Orient, said "that every pack
age of merchandise, and even silk,
etc., should be fumigated thoroughly
to eradicate the cholera germs lurking
in that disease-stricken oountry."
These are not idle words, but the
deep sounding words of warning from
one knowing well the dangers to whioh
we are subjected, from an eye-observer
of the natives themselves, and the hor
rors of the ghastly work of death
among that myriad of fast-breeding,
pestilential people. Suoh are the risks
taken by every person buying umnese-
made goods. Suoh the ohanoea, unneces
sary chances against the homes of our
working people, and without cause
other than the support of degraded, ill
paid labor, as described. These faota
are daily becoming better known to
our own neonle. So much so that
many stores now display the sign,
We handle the American Kenned
Sugars only," and it is a safe rule to
follow, where no suoh announcement
is made, to be sure you are not getting
China-made sugar is to ask the question
or promptly transfer your custom.
See that you are supplied with no
other than the Amerioan-made artiole,
made by Amerioan workmen, in
American cleanly faotories, operated
by American capital, paying Amerioan
wages, in good American coin and
keeping that Amerioan money at home,
not sending it abroad to support the
Chinese nation.
We have here in our own glorious
state of Oregon and sister state of
Washington as evidenoed by the exposi
tion of the Manufacturers' and Pro
ducers' Association, one of the greatest
fields for beets this or any other ooun
try can produce. In rejecting the
ooolie-made sugar, and buying only
American-made goods, you are enoour
aging and strengthening the hands of
your neighbor farmer, and building up
an industry in which you will your
self share, and in time proudly realize
the greatness of the soil upon which we
live and whioh God has blessed with a
special providence as unsurpassed on
the face of the globe.
"NOT THAT KIND OF A BOY."
Queer Aotlr of a Candidate Wot Admis
sion to a College Fraternity.
A. E. Bailey, a young man from
Helena, walked down State street, Chi
cago, at 8 o'clock the other night with
his eyes tightly ba minced arid wearing
on his head au enormous straw hat trim
med with old ropes, onions and two de
coy ducks. The crowd that followed the
fantastio figure grew so latge a police
man filially stepped up and said:
"Look here, my man, are you crazy?"
"No," softly replied Mr. Bailey.
"I'm not that kind of a boy."
This did not satisfy the policeman
and he was about to take Bailey to the
station when four yonng men, who had
been walking on each side of the blind
folded man, rushed up and said Bailey
was simply being initiated into the mys
teries of the Delta Sigma Delta frater
nity of the Chicago College of Dental
Surgery.
The explanation was sufficient, and
the dental stodents and their victim
wended on. On every corner a stop was
made and Bailey plied with questions,
to nil of which he had to answer, in
the words of a placard on his bat, "Mo,
I am not that kind of a boy."
The last seen of Bailey was when he
was sitting patiently in a dark stairway
on Dearborn street His companions had
started to the theater after asking Bailey
if be would like to go.
"Yes that is, no," said the young
man from Montana. "I am not that
kind of a boy. "Chicago Tribune.

TO FIGHT THE CIGARETTE.
Professor Laflin to Inaugurate a Crusade
Against the Evil.
Professor John M. Laflin, the strong
man, he who challenged Sullivan aud
was used as a model by Gerorue, the
great French painter, is about to inan
gnrate a way on cigarettes. Professor
Laflin bos always been a deadly enemy
of the cigarette, but now he bos taken
his coat off and is going to work to fight
the evil in earnest
Be is compiling statistics which
would frighten any cigarette smoker
who bad a particle of sense remaining.
These include antbentio records of cases
all over the Union of boys and young
men who have been brought to on un
timely end by indulging the habit.
They also include facts aud figures
which physicians and college professors
have compiled on the subject, based up
on experience and experiment This
matter will go to form a book which
Professor Laflin is writing.
He also aims to band together the
Sunday schools of the country in one
vast anticigarette league that will strike
a harder blow at the cigarette trust than
any of its competitors. Clergymen are
to be interested in the new movements,
and there are to be branch clubs in ev
ery state and city of the country. No
better exhibit could be found for the
lecture platform than Professor Laflin
himself, who has been called "the per
fect man" physically, and who never
smoked a cigarette in his life. New

Kothlng to Attract the Mob.
There were more millions represented
yesterday in the Stillman-Rockefeller

yet the young people most concerned
had fortunately neither divorce nor ti

passed off quietly and with no parade of
police.

Photographing French Criminals.
The system of photography in nse is
peculiar to the service and is the result
of its experiments. Tt is free from all
conventional operations, for the photo
graph is made simply to be recognized.
The poses chosen are: A perfect profile,
since that gives a sort of anatomical
cut of the face; then a full face view,
since there one has the habitual expres
sion and the pose of the head. The pic
ture is never retouched, since scars,
moles and spots are such infallible
means of identification. Absolute uni
formity is sought in the size, form and
style of the different photographs. In
order that the distance may be invaria
ble the chair and camera are screwed to
the floor, and there is a perfect system
of adjustment. The light is thrown into
the face. The result is bard on the sub
ject. One does not care to display bis

they are admirably, brutally exact.

Thirty-Are Tears For a Fen Dollars.
An old man in England was sent to
prison for four months for petty steal
ing whose record, the judge who sen
tenced him said, "is one of the most
awful pieces of reading that has ever
come to my notice. " In 18G3 he was
sent to jail for three years for stealing
two tame rabbits. He then got seven
years for stealing 5 shillings and a
shawl, then ten years, with seven years'
police supervision, for stealing three
ducks, and finally consecutive sentences
of five years each on three charges of
stealing a coat, a pair of reins and a
shovel, with another seven years' police
supervision. In all 85 years of penal

Mo Bond Issue Contemplated.
Notwithstanding the continued steady
loss of gold, it is still asserted at the
treasury department that there is no
immediate prospect of a bond issue, and
that such action will not be considered
while the balance remains above the
$75,000,000 limit, and not even in case
it should fall to that figure unless con
gress fails to take cognizance of the
situation at least to the extent of provid

The following interview has just
been given our reporter by Mr. G. A.
Baker, the overseer at the farm of Colo
nel Isaao A. Sugg, of Greenville, N.
C. It will interest anyone who has
ever had typhoid fever. Mr. Baker
said in part:
"I was living in Beaufort county,
and on the 2d day of October, 1898,
I was strioken down with typhoid
fever. 1 had the best physicians to at'
tend me and on the 15th day of Janu
ary, 1894, I was allowed to get up.
was emaciated, weak and had no appe
tite. I could only drag along for a
short distanoe and would be compelled
to sit down and rest This continued
for some time, and I began to give up
hope of ever getting well. I lost my
position in Beaufort county, and, hav
ing secured one in Pitt county, clerk
ing in a store, I undertook it, but was
so weak I could not do the work and
had to give it up. The disease settled
in my knees, legs and feet I was tak
ing first one kind of medicine and then
another, but nothing did me any good.
I was mighty low-spirited. I moved
out to Colonel Sugg's about four or five
months ago and oommenoed taking
Dr. Williams' Pills. I took three a
day for about three months. I bejfen
to regain my appetite in a week's time,
and then my weakness began to disap
pear, and hope sprung up with a bless
edness that is beyond all telling. At
the expiration of the three months I
was entirely cured and could take my
axe and go in the woods and do as good
a day's work as any man. 1 was
troubled with dyspepsia and that has
disappeared. It is also a splendid tonio
for weak people. I say, Mr. Editor,
God bless Dr." Williams; may he live
for a long time; I know he will go up
yonder to reap his reward for he has
done a wonderful lot of good. Tell
everybody that asks you about Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
that if they will oome to me I can
always satisfy them as to their merits.
I always carry a box of pills with me
and when ever I feel bad I take one."
We are forcibly struok with the
earnestness of Mr. Baker and his state
ments may be relied on.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness
to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are an unfailing speoiflo
for suoh diseases as locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, St Vitus' danoe,
soiatioa, neuralgia, rheumatism, nerv
ous headache, the after effects of la
grippe, palplitation of the heart, pale
and sallow complexions, all forms of
weakness either in male or female, and
all diseases resulting from vitiated hu
mors in the blood. Pink Pills are sold
by all dealers, or will be sent post paid
