Beet Sugar Factory Here
Will Care
Farmers of Willamette Valley to Be Asked to Sign Up 8000
Acres; Eugene and Salem Growers Equally Favored,
Firm Pays Freight
This is the biggest news feature of the year, for Salem and
the whole Willamette valley. It is the news of the fact that
Salem can have a beet sugar factory, ready for the 1927 crdp,
if the Willamette valley will grow 8000 acres of sugar beets,
on the right kind of land, under proper cultivation. On this
condition, with that acreage signed up on contracts such as
are used in all the districts where the company has factories,
the Utah-Idaho Sugar company will build a factory in Salem,
or will move a factory from some other point, with capacity
for processing the beets from

Paul F. Burris, chairman of the
Marion county republican central
committee last night sent forth
me ioiiowmg appeal to voters.
members of the central committee
mjid to republican candidates in
dicating that a meeting would
probably be called on Wednesday,
at the state fair grounds:'
. "Our primary law requires a
candidate to take the pledge, If
I am not nominated, I will not ac
cept the nomination or endorse
ment of any parry other than the
one. in which I am registered.'
"Oregon history shows that no
man has ever violated that pledge
and been elected. If wo do our
full duty in the coming election
we will administer such a rebuke
to party traitors that in future
elections disgrunted candidates
in the primary election will not
become , the tool of the opposing
party In the general election.
"Our theory of government calls
calls for! control by a political par
ty, and that In accordance with the
provisions of the -party platform
laws shall be passed for the reguJ
iation of our national -affairs.
"This is a repubUcan adminis
tration and It will remain In pow
er If prosperity continues to in
crease as it has during the last
five vears. Republican Oregon has.
and will have, many things to ask
of the republican administration
that can only be procured by a
regular republican delegation.
? .THow; foolish we would. Tie If
because of any laxness on our part
we 'should allow a democrat to be
elected United States senator from
Oregon to antagonize and hamper
th4 administration and to split
our delegation. Even moreoolish
it would be to elect a traitor to his
prty, owing allegiance to a group
whose platform is 'rule or ruin,'
and as a reward for unfaithful
ness send. him back to Washington
to. further the interests of that
group.

OREGON SUSPECT HELD
RAY CHARLKH D'ATJTREMONT
THOUGHT CAPTURED
NEW ORLEANS, ' Sept. 25.-
(AP) A man believed to be Ray
Charles D'Autremont, one of three
brothers sougnt . lor three years
or; the dynamiting of a Southern
Pacific . mail car in the Siskiyou
mountains in Oregon and the slay
ing of a mail. clerk, was. arrested
by police1 hero tonight ; .
"He Is Jjolug. held incommunica
do pending further identification.
The suspect gave, his name, as
George N, Fletcher, 25, and Bald
for 1927 Crop
that acreage.
That is the information given
by J. W. Timpson, Washington
manager for the Utah-Idaho Sug
ar company, yesterday at the of
flee of the Salem Chamber of Com
merce, which has been. negotiating
with his company with this prop
osition in view for some time.
Under the conditions named, Mr.
Timpson said he would recom
mend this action to his company,
and there was no doubt ir would
be ratified.
' In Salem, Not Ucllinghaiu
Through the efforts of the Sa
lem Chamber of Commerce, a
number of farmers of the Salem
district grew sugar beets; in trial
plots, In 1924 and last year, and
the beets grown were shipped to
the plant of the Utah-Idaho Sugar
company at Bellmgham. Wash,
and there processed, with the n
suit that it, was shown that tiieru
can be grown here, in various
types of our soil, a sugar beet
with a high enough surcose
(sugar) content to justify work
ing, them up in a factory. That
point, in fact, had been settled
ten to fifteen years before the
breaking out of the World wr.r.
Beets with as high a sugar con
tent as 25 per cent hare bse'n
grown in the Willamette valley,
whereas 12 pe." cent is high
enough for a commercial beet,
and the University of Louisiana,
after elaborate experiments, re
cently made the statement that a
10 per cent beet would be com
mercially profitable, and, with a
high per acre tonnage, would pro
duce more sugar to" the acre than
the farmers of that state get from
their cane.
Mr. Timpson believes that the
Willamette valley will produce,
under proper cultural practices,
beets that will go 15 per cent
sugar on the average, and 15 tons
of beets to the acre. With an
8000 acre crop, of course, there
will be many farmers who will
grow a much, higher sugar con
tent beet, and a much greater
tonnage to the acre.
In Sixty Mile Circuit
The factory at Salem will ac
cept contracts with farmers with
in a radius of 0 miles on the 50-
50 basis, and put all growers with
in that' radius on an equality, as
nearly as possible.
This means that the -farmer will
receive $6 a ton when he delivers
bis beets to the factory, or to any
