Some tiny " a letter was pub lish! hi the Or-j(iiUU written by parties la tlx ea-tt who want to In augurate a 1-M-t sujrar refinery at or tu-ur l'orttiiKl. Il this letter the c-ofujAay propose to set up a pi mi t oft lie most complete mai'hiuery tliut s!wll have a capacity fwr using WX to ytlO tons of twt per lay, uni will run five month In the year. For the Uh-Is the coiiitsiny nays It will pay H.M per ton rvtfitr'l Uni tit the amount of sivvhanue mat ter they may contain, and to a fiiriui-r who deliver loo tons or over a bounty of fifty dollars will be pald. This, virtually, I five dollars jx-r ton for the tlr-it hundrel tons. The farmers on their part will be asked to (fuarants th cultivation of .Vxnj ai res in beets. There may !e other details, but these ure all the eonditions immeil in their tirt letter. Now then. How many lusts can le rai.sel on an Here? From our own country there are only meagre r jiorts. In KuroH-, however, the returns are more complete. For the HftMOiifif 1VM-9I, the lust report at hand, there was ral-s-d in Tun prr fit Austria limitary Prune Ci.rtuany ti it it a 1.I.S On the Schuyler, exM'riment station at NebriLsku, then were harvested 21.7 tons. These lijjun-s are fou in I at piijfe 1 rcjwirt of the United Stutm di-partim-nt of nu'ricul- ture for the year 1891. The Schuyler experiment wart under fuvoruhli: circumstances, though it is no higher than is sometime grown in Kurox The yield of the beet fields taken as a whole will probably not I greater here than the fields first nbov quoted. Suppono we base estimates on the French yields. Die veil tons at will return u gross income of 19 per aire. Compare this with wheat. Kay thirty bushels of wheat to bo taken from nn acre, and this is perhas the limit of avenge yields, which marketed at $1 per bushel, an outside figure, and we have mi in come of f:it) per acre, a difference of $19 in favor of the beets. Hut there will be necessarily closer cultivation In the let field, but it will give employment for more ixtiple which ts the very thin;; needed. More meat will be eaten, more bread will ls put w here it w ill do most good, more clothes worn. Adam Smith, the economist, nudes that the wealth of a peoplo is increased in three ways more capital, more laborer, and an increased incentive to labor. A sugar factory would certainly bring capital and laborers and by so much Is the community enriched. Four and a half dollars is counted ft large prico for beets, but tho com pany claims it is justified In ottering that sum sini-w by a new process the entire wuvharino matter of the Iss t Ls extracted whereas before only 80 or 85 per cent, is saved. The oily hinderauce now noted to prevent tho successful planting of this new Industry Is tho conservatism of our farmers w ho ar prone to stay with whi'at. Five thousand acres of beet land can le readily net apart for beet within a radius of three miles of Hillsboro. Fuel Is cheap lu re and shipping facilities convenient. To the I.M.Ki KMiK.NT there is but one thing necessary for the successful establishment of a sugar refinery here and that is tho Intelligent and per-aisU-nt cultivation of tho beets. Ol course farmers must first be, assured of a market for the crop. Mutual pledges must be made. hECESTLY ASP I OA'PEE. In the news column Is something of an account of the doings of a com mittee of regulators. crime against the jeace and dignity of the community has been committed. If "Tinhorn" is innocent then the com mittee had no right to run him out of town. If he gambled, and no one denies that, then helms confederates. They are law breakers, and deserve punishment to the end that good order he establish"! and maintained. Hut no punishment should Is' inflict ed in an unlawful manner. Mobs are dangerous organization. They bring disgrace and violence to so iety and shame to thow composing it. If there are any persons in our community that have engaged in unlawful acts sutHcicut to justify warning letter let the authors of audi warnings, decently and in order, make complaint to the otHivrs and lvc the deliii'iuents publicly nr rdgiHsl to answer fur their tnisd.vds.

Has the n-ntl U-en tleman'ksl by a people who have clearly mn the difficulty of the times and who have applied ft per fect remedy ? The newsjwpers have largely been responsible for the leg islation thus far but do they reflect the true sentiment of the safe middle das of swple? There are two extreme element in tho country one, the money i-lav dealer iu money, men who do nothing to produce wealth, and only serve the purpose of facilitating exchange, a kind of animate clearing house, whose interest It Is to contract the volume of the currency. Another extreme element numbers tliose persons who want to provide for the issuing of a cheap dollar With w hich to pay debts. They w ould take fifty cents worth of material and make something that they could force otf on creditors for l'XI cents. It is the same commercial tory of the bears and the bulls. Just now the beaf seem to lie planted on the carcass ol the bull. Instead of occupying a conserva tive" pohition, the Administration sis nis to be on the side of the bear. Mr. Carlisle has commenced coining gold, and notice. Ho Ls striking half and quarter ingles. Now, no two and a half dollar gold pieces ought to te minted, and but few fives. Indeed, it is questionable whether gold coins less than tens should be isnutsl. lii t silver do that work. Further evidence of contrac tion is seen in the senate's action on the proposition to allow national banks to issue bills up to the par value of Ismds depositisl to secure circulation. Some of the banks have asked for that privilege but It begins to he apparant that no such measure can lie passed in the senate. There Ls a middle course that must be found. The pywerof the extreme inllationists has Is en broken, and attentnm must ho turntsl to ttie extreme contractionists. Since the Democrat are continually apjsnling to tho Chicago platform, perhaps they will rinit Republicans to quote (he Minncapoli.j resolution: "The He- publican party demands tho use of both gold and silver as standard money with such restrictions and under such provision to Is determ ined hy legislations as will secure the maintenance of the parity of valla's of the two metals, so that the pur chasing and debt paying power of the dollar, whether of silver, gold or paper, shall be at all linn's enual." We can uso more silver. I.et Mr. Carlisle coin it or If ho has no metal which he can use for that purjxise, let him ask congress for permission to use some of tho bullion now in ample stock. Above all stop coin ing those quarter eagles. rut: PEOPLE SPEAK'. After two weeks debate the bill repealing the Sherman purchase law came to a vote on Monday last. "Tho galleries of tho hou-w wero crowded long before tho time for assembling by cron interested in the result of tlw ballotting on the silver question after a two weeks' debate. The speaker commanded order at noon. Nearly every neat In the liall was tllltsi, ami there was unmistakable evideuceof general and individual lnU-rot in tho matter on hand. The chaplain prayed briefly, and hi voice was inaudible at a dis. tance of more than ten feet. After tho reading of the journal, Weaver of .New ork, appeared at the bar of the house, on the arm of his col league, (Jeneral Traooy, and was sworn in by the epeaker. The reso lution contained iu the order of pro eednro on the silver question was roportisl by the clerk, providing for a voto first upon tho free coinage of silver at the present ratio of It) to 1. ltailey of Texas asked if, iu 'ho event fall amendments Included iu the order being defeated, it would be in order to propose an additional amend ment germane to the nuliject. Speaker Crisp replied that, as at present advised, ho would answer no; that tho order provides exhaust ively nil that tho house may consider, but that when tlu time came to formally present tho question tho geutleinan from Texas might be heard. Mc.Millin disinsj to oij'er an amoudeinent provining for the frs' coinage of the product of the silver mini' of the I'uittsl States, but Hland objoctod, saying that such M proposition was no free coinage at all. Then the Wilson bill, repealing tho silver-purchase clause of the Sherman act, was read, and Hland otfensl his first amendment for free coinage at the ratio of 10 to 1 ; de l'ited, 12;t to 2-ti, amid applaun from the anti-silver men, who did not expect so large a majority," The vote as it came over the wires stood: Ayes Republicans 1.1, Ivm (xr.its loo, I'opulist 11, total 121. Nays, Rcpublimns 112, Ih-uhmtiU 112, total 221. The vote w; taken on tho ration.

The vote came on the Wilson bill, which uncouditioii illy reil tho ntieriu:n purchase act. The vote stands, aye llepublicans J7, Dein- K-rats 117, tytal 211 1 n ys Hepubli inns 22, Iieinocr.its 77, I'opulisU Jl, tol.il 110. Say, neighbor, you didn't quote far enough. Tho Ixdlucxdent said, "we are liviug under Democratic exsvtation" and if it is realized thee ill be inoro how U of rngo than yet hit rent tho air, and the old, straight Itopnhlionn won't nuke the m cither. SOME T now ins. Our friend Mr. Lim tatowt the In dependent to lak for ft little para graph concerning the demonetization of silver. Now that little paragraph U not retracted notwithstanding it may be "nailed to the wall." If It I there nailed, it cannot get lost till next we k when If clrcurnistaneet, seem to Justify, more may be aaid. Hut now let this be remarked. From the fervency of our neighbor' lan guage one might properly couclude that he did not hit tho nail ou the head at each ktroke but that there U a bruised finger or two. Would that the unfortunate Messiah craze" could nail the truth of this matter ou the wall and also paste It in their hats. They might then do less "talking through their hati." He indulges in the usual rant about John Sherman. Senator Sherman I in a ioition similar to the hen peeked husband, who, when hi friends remonstrated with him for patiently enduring all his wife's abuse, replied, "O well, It doesn't hurt me and doe her a heap of good." Such reviling might be maliciou were It not so silly. There comes to mind a quotation "forgive them, they know not what they do." A par allel case Ls that of lemetrius and his free silver mob at Ephosus who howled themselves hoarse because they thought Paul' preaching would destroy tho market for silver shrims and little god. Tho arrays of testimony is akin to Pat's defense to the charge of stealing a pig. Ou being told that they would bring a man who would swear ho saw him steal tho pig, ho replied " Faith and Oi'Il bring ten men who will schwenr they didn't sis- me steal it." Ho is greatly excited about that .'00,000 and manifestly t uvies the congressman of that period his sujie rior opjiortunitii's over those of the Populist patriot and statesman of today. Mr. Seyd is accused of making "sensible nuggestions." O that a much might lie said of the silver i tea, Ho round to laud in this sea of verbosity with the statement "Here I Rest." After such an effort no doubt ho needs it. He arrogates to himself great credit for what he has proven. It is admitted that ho has demonstrated his right to a place in that class of logicians who regard a derisive epithet a a conclusive argu ment. It can be understood how man might lie reliable authority on bogus butter or pure milk skimmed on both sides and yet hi Ideas on demonetization savor of "guess work based on moonshine." And then he demands "Inexpugnable' facts. "That was tho unkindest cut of all." Dr. Johnson I said to have struck a fish woman dumb by trailing her an "Isoweles triangle." Some where it is read that the law of nations forbids the use of chain shot in civilized warfare, and if tho gen tleinan has any more ninoteon-jointod missiles it I to lie hoped that he will lire thorn Into "Mitchell's mooushiuo' and allow them to "range with com etary caudaeity from the rolling earth to the sunlit hill of heaven and then through tho wide tract of hell" or words to that effect, so they may not paralyze industry, destroy growing rrops and carry dismay to the hearts of a long suffering nn afflicted people. I-.vory few week there comes floating over from China a statement that tho Oriental government has nothing but good w ill for this bar burian nation and that no retaliatory stops will bo taken until after the aijournment of tho present session of congress, when, If the Geary law is not regaled, notice of the situation will be taken by his Oriental high ness. Wouldn't it bo well in view of these blackmailing threat to unotllc tally inform thono Orientals that we are ready to meet them and try our new Kreg-Jordonson rifle. Those Chinese, tsvause of our hitherto reputation for joaoo, Judge ut to bo iioltroons. A good wholesome drub bing would be of benefit to them. And we can sjs'll a-b-l-e too. A visitor staicxi a row nay ago that if the United States should con tinue the purchase of silver for a few mouths longer a corner would bo made in silver and that wo would be in position to demand our own term. Already it is coming to bo a ditHcult mutter to get together the ViX),(HJi nutnv each month. Our relator claims that it is not the government that is Nuring silver, but it das of middle men. The original holders of the nictul cannot deal directly with tho government because they an' so numerous that there Is not time for tho transactions. Hence the servhv of the-o grinding middle men ha to be ncts-pted. Hut after ull, whil4 tho corner would lorhap have btsn a profitable thing for the United Mate, it would lie a bad thing for mankind. Ss retar Carlisle has ordered that tho mint at Philadelphia and San Francisco at once comnieniv coining gold bullion to their full capacity. Ten, five and two and n half pieces will be minted. Metal for this pur lsso will be taken from the hundnvl million reserve fund which is in the shape of bullion. The Capital Journal Is urging an extra Heion of the legislature, not to enact a stay law, but to take steps toward protecting the atato from loss occasioned by defaulting treasurers, and suspended banks. That paper thinks an extra e-sion will not cost more than 1JJ.0O0, whereas it might save n half million. Cl.KR E EE P. Honorable Thomas H. lUssl, of Maine, whom the average Itcmocrat detet, r-poke on the silver question In the house on Saturday last. Here I a synopsis of hi remarks. After sketching briefly tho finan cial condition of tho country, and declaring he had . no desire to deal with the situation from ft political standpoint, he proetded to say : "The Iiemocratle party was brought Into power by a is-ulir combination of circumstances, but in ft large measure by tho American ieople. The consciousness of thl fact, he said, underlie the entire situation. He would not raise the question whether protection was wise or not, but the fact remaiued that, even if h.j admitted thv propositions of the liemocratic platform were entirely correct, the system upon w hich the manufacturers of the country .were regulated for thirty year was threat ened with a total change. Whether that change would be for the better or not no man can know. What the Democratic parly propose to do nobody can say ; they do not even know themselves. The sreaker did not believe the Democratic party were utterly bad, nor that they would be permitted to be so it they desired. If the reformation of the tariff were in the hand even of its friend who favored protection, In stead of those who denouiuxl it business would not be stagnant or at a standstill. Hut when its reforma tion was In the hands of men opixxwsj to the present system, tho. manufac turers of tho country, buildcd ou the present system must necessarily call a halt. If their goods are to come iu comi'tition with the maiiufacUir rs of other lands, where the produc tion ls on a different basis, and w hose labor is differently regarded, no man ufacturer will dare to manufacture more than absolute ncts'ssity require. He characterized this as one phase of the cause of tho present conditiun of ' affairs, tho uudiseoveralile certainty of tho future or bom tne currency question and tho question of proteo lion and revenue tariff, lie consid ered tho Sherman uct and the accumulation of silver a tho earliest indication of approaching disaster, rather than the chief cause. He did not lielieve tho Democratic congress, even under pressure of tho people, would revise the tariff, or that work ingmcit would be brought back even to tho condition of the workingmeti under the Walker tariff, but ho had no doubt there would bo no doubts and ditllculties and retractions. It was not to lie expected that tho Dem ocrat after thirty years of criticism of tho acts of others should ! liftisl at once to tho highest level of respon sibility and iicrfonnanoe. Time only could do that. L ntll that time came they could rely on the assistance of the Itepublican minority in the di rection of sound government and honest administration. The sis-aker was sorry tho Democratic majority would not jicrmit the ItopublioHn to exhibit their wisdom in the way of an amendment, but confined them to tho Democratic prossitlon. He would waste no time showing that tho rights of tho minority wo out raged, uecording to tho Iremocratic position, when tho llcpublican were in ower, for ho reeognizd now, as then, the necessity and duty of tho party in power assuming tho respon sibility of its action. Ho was only sorry tho question could not !o set tled within tno bounds of the Ivmo cratic party itself, but everylxxly know tho majority of tho Democrats would decide against tho good sense of tho nation. Though ho did not believe the repeal of the Sherman act would give immediuto prosorlty, he would vote for it because, whether justly or not, it Is believed to lie tho cause of hoarding currency, and because only by reonl could the nation hope to attract foreign capital. lie characterized tho charge that tho law of 1873 was a trick, ns 'one of the most stupendous fabrications which ever existed in political life.' The ppthway of duty was unconditional repeal. If that did not give relief wo must try something else, and the sooner tho bettor, Tho Republicans found themselves in a peculiar posi tion. The newly chosen Democratic president found himself powerless in Ids first great recommendation to his own party, and forced to appeal to tho patriotism of another party, whoso patriotism hnd never been appealed to In vuln. Tho ("peaker sketched tho salient points in the financial history of the Republican party, and closed by saying that when tho day came, as It surely would, for that party to lead the country back to prosperity, it would take tstck with it our ancient glory u ml i mined by adversity, and our ancient honor unsullied by defeat."

A rumor was heard today to the effect that there w ill be an attempt made this fall to tljiset the state ass,sMiicnt law and throw us back upon the territorial provision, in force along about 18"3. A gentleman ut tho court house this week Insisted in having his indebttslness noted Umn his assessment, probably surmising that something of the kind will be done. Senator Dolph has IntrtMlnosI a bill into tho senate appropriating 'shj.ihxi to enable the secretary of tho treasury to carry out tho provi Ions of tho Jeary Chinese doiiortatlon law.

Senator John Sherman, than whom there 1 not ft mora able finance minister In United States, made a vrefet res"h In Him wnnta Wixinud. lay on the money legislation now . r engrossing tho attention of Congre- and the country. In hi effort last ing two hour and ten minute he said : ' -il ine repeat or tne act were the only reason for an extra session, it seemed to him Insufficient. It was Justified, however, by th exLst lng financial stringency. Congress ami the people are both agreed that gold and silver should be continued a money. If cheap money L wanted, the free coinage of silver 1 the way to got it ; but it must not be called bimetallsm. it would be the monometalisin of silver. The president, said Sherman, tailed to give the cause of the decline In silver, it was due to the fact that we had to pay our debts, and our debt were payable In gold. Kngland had to make good her los in tho Argentine liepubllo to prevent her own In stitutions from going down, si she returned our securities and demanded payment in g Id. The balance of trade was also against us, and we had to make the difference good. This, nut the Sherman act, led to the present condition. "Sherman nald he had ooussnted i ((1 tie passage of the law to prevent free coinage, and to that exient it had benefited the country, but a year ago he introduced a hill almost in tho same word a the Voohees bill to reeal it. Not ft Democrat voted for it. They must answer why. The trouUo was ft currency famine, not fear a to the sondnes of tho country' money. He did not believe the roiical would overcome the stagnation, but it would ease the money market from the dread of free coinage. He warned them that if tho Democrats attempt to alter the exlsiting tariff it would plunge the country into deeper distress. As to the future, wo must preserve the parity of all our money. The balance of trade might be against us next year and It might bo iwcossary to issue securities to secure gold to maintain the parity. The secretary of tho treasury ought to have authority to make the deflct good. All imrtie heretofore gave the sec retary that authority. Tho surplus In the treasury should Is? coined and used for till legal purposes. He did not lielieve In buying silver from our IH'uple at a profit. If it was a profit, it was an intrigue; If not a profit, it was a fraud. Ho believed It was fraud. Sherman denied VoorheeV statement that the act of 1873 was "healthy demonetization." Voorhees said the remark was not meant to apply to Sherman a he hud cleared himself of participation in it four years ago. Sherman, con tlliuing, said It WRS StratlgO that on the vote On this bill Stewart Of No - vada votetl for it and Mherman nir..i,w If agatnsl Stewart said in duo time he could explain how he came to vote for the I til , , , . .. Sherman caused a laugh by Quoting from one of Stewart's spaechea In the debate of tho bill In 1W3. In w hich larod'gold was tho'unlversnl rd of the world,' and urged i he doc standard j the gold dollar as fixing tho standard by which the workmau knvw exact ly what his labor was worth. It was not until tho silver dollar became cheaper than gold that it was de manded, and then it was to take advantage of creditors, The pur chase of silver by us when all others stopped it was an improvident use of public money. Instead of striking down silver, he wanted to build It up; but it could not he done by us alone. He believed the thing to do was to suspend tiio purchase of silver and devote our attention to the needs nf tho hour, Sherman followed up his advantage over the Nevada sen ator by exhibiting a newspaper pub. tishou in mat state, one w hole side of whh h was occupied with notice nf assessments on silver mining stock all payable iu United States gold coin. Sherman concluded at 2:40, having spoken two hours and ten minutes. 1'ortlons of his speech were rend from manuscript, but the great er part of it was delivered ex tempore and with great rapidity and force. Ho was listened to throughout w ith unflagging attention and Interest." Tho lst Democrat nowadays is the one who gives least thought to to the Chicago platform.
