Capitalists have pledged the neeea'
aary money for a sugar-beet factory
at Newbt-rg, Yamh II county. The
money counted is $750,000. The
lai d owners of Newberg have do
nated land for the plant, and the far
uier have bonded themselves to cul.
tivKte 5000 acres of land planted to
beets. In other words New-berg is
to have a sugar factory. The me
chanics will do their part promptly
and well. Ho ought the farmers.
But to do ho they should now set
part the lot or field which is to go
into beets. It ought to be plowed
lhla fall, deep too. The farmers are
really undertaking a new trade.
They know how lo raiae IteeU. The
matter ought (o be studied before the
seed ia planted. The augar industry
came near failing In Union county
the drat year. All because the far
mers did not know how. The ma
chines drilled the seeds well enough,
but the ground was hard; it was
weedy; It was dry. They did not
cultivate the lst way, did not thin
properly. The same experience went
to the Salt Lake factory, and to the
Nebraska imluatry. Can't the New
berg people do la'tter?

When the United Slates secured
posaessian of the Philippines, it was
not foreseen that the policy of her
position there would so soon be vin
dicated. Amid all the riot and an
archy existing in China, the United
States, as no Kuroaan nation could
do, is thus enabled to assume the
leading responsibility in bringing
about a settlement of the serious
complication. She can now aanert
her claims as a world ower, and haa
a reserve near at hand to make those
claims g'HxI. Some people, call this
Imperialism, hut when we are thus
able to exeit an influence in ttie
Orient which iniures safety agmntt a
general disruption among the
powois, it would appear to thinking
and solx-r minded eople that the
practice of this kind of imperiali-uii
has everything to commend itself

The frenzied anxiety of the Ken

of the legislature to reeal the In fa

political pertidity which they dare
not leave open until the presidential

"If we are going to give the Fili

Bryan In a recent letter, -'we ought

that Mr. Bryan should explain if he

It has Ut-u a favor, ta pasiiiue for

There has usually la-eu no bark want

the other hand, has had a well de
fined plau : Save life, protect prop

Kuroisntu rritie who writes Iroiu
Loudon to ttie New York Tribune
His paragraph read:
" 1 he situation Iks vlcared sutuvi-
eutly lo admit a perspective view ol
the British and American policy.
What tiie Biitirh policy in China is,
No one outside the foreign ollk-e here
professes lo know. Lord Salisbury has

haa rescued it. Kugland has taken a
subordinate part in the bombardment
of the Taku forts, and Hi Kuroj ean
forces have rescued the relief ex (edi
tion which was badly planned hy
the British admiral. L'ird Salisbury
will now fall hack witnout doubt up
on the Kuro-aii concert, and the
initiative will be taken by Ku-wia.
Tin; American government, unlike
the European powers, aeenis t know

geut for Seymour's column and
ano' her one was under Hre with the
Russians tefore Tien Tain was re

was no engagement to- do anything
more tian cooperate with other
forces in ttie protection of lie and
the property of the foreigners. The
American activity will end when its
legation is safe and the lives ami
property of Americans in China are
protected. There will be no inter

nor any participation In the partition
of the Empire. The European con
cert will be left to settle the question
relating to the deposition of the Em

United States:
"The principles of the Christit n

The prohibitionists are swing as
men politically cleaner than others
aud demand support because they are
"Is-tler than that 'publican." but in
truth there has been no party of
modem time- that has la-en more
sinister in its attacks upon its oppon
ents, and especially is this true of the
assaults made upon Pres. McKinlcy
l'hi gixaly, goody patty is ready to
seize ou aud circulat- every vicious
rumor aspersing the PresideLt's er-
sonal character. The democrats will
attack the policy of the admiiiis' ra
tion, but they will not throw mud at
individuals. Th.it will be left t
prohibitionists; n this they may Is-
jninet. by Individual democrats, but
the party will attack the republican
policy and administration of govern
ment. It will not silence tins per
sonal attack of prohihit'otiists to de

may not in their pride siy there is

how large will be the majority

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM
Phtladei.ttii a. -Following is the full
text of the platform adopted by the Re
publican National convention :
The Kepnblicaitanf the United States,
through their chosen representatives.
met in national convention, looking
back upon an unsurpassed ' record of
achievement, and looking forward into
a great field of duty and opportunity
and appealing to the judgment of their
countrymen, make these declarations:
The expectation -in which the Ameri
can people, turning from tho Dninocratio
party, intrusted power four years ago to
a Republican chief magistrate and a
Republican congress, has been met and
satisfied. When' the people then as
sembled at the polls after- a term of
Democratic legislation and administra
tion, busiue s was dead, indnstry para
lysl aud the national credit disastrous
ly impaired. The country's capital
was hidden awny aud Its lalsir distress
ed and unemployed. The Democrats
had no other plan with which to im
prove the rniuous conditions which they
had themselves produced than to coin
silver at the ratio of 16 to 1.
Preaprrlty nronght llj Rrpnhllrana.
The Republican party denonnclng
this plan as sure to produce conditions
even worse thaii those from which re
lief was souitht, promised to restore
prosperity by means of two legislative
measures a protective tariff and a law
making gold the standard of value.
The people by great majorities issued to
the Republican party a commission to
enact these laws. This commission has
been executed and the Republican
promise is redeemed. Prosperity more
general and more abundant thau wo
have ever known has followed these
enactments. There Is no longer any
controversy as to tho value of any gov
ernmcnt ob igarions. Every American
dollar is a gold dollar or its assured
equivalent, and American credit stands
higher than that of any other nation.
Capital is fully employed and every-
wnero lahor Is profitably occupied.

Uiu, ami at home and abrowl it has dis
tinctly elevated aud extended the influ
ence of the Am.ruan nation. Walk

been in every situation the true Ameri
can patriot and upright statesman, clear"
In vikinu, strong iu judgment, firm iu
action, always inspiring and deserving
the coufiileuce of his countrymen. -
in asking the American peoplo to in
dorse this Kt publicum record and to re
new their commission to the liepubli
oau party, we rejuuid them of the tact
tlial the menace to their prosrity has
always resided iu Democratic priueipkia
and no less in the general incuuu.-ity of
the Democratic pui ty to couduet public
affairs. Tho prime essential of bust
Bess prosperity is public confidence ju
the good sense of the government unci
its ability to dual intelligently with all
new problems of administration ttnd
legislaliou. That oontMeoco Hie B-mo
eratlo party has never earned. It is
hopelessly inadequate, aud the country's
prosperity, when Deniocrutio success at
the polls is announced, halts and ceases
in mere antisipation of UeiiKH-ratio
blunders and failures.
Declaration for the Gold Standard.
We renew our allegiance to tho prin
ciple of the gold standard, and declare
our uouftdenoe in tne wisdom of the
legislation of the Fifty-sixth congress
by which the parity of all our
money and the stability of oar currency
ob a gold basis has been secured. We
recognize that interest rates ant a h
tont factor In production and business
activity aud for the purpose of further
equalizing aud of further lowering the
rates of interest we favor snch mone
tary legislation as will enable the vary
ing needs of the season aud of all s-o-tioas
to be properly met in order Unit
trade may be evenly sustained, labor
steadily employed aud commerce en
larged. The volume of money in cir
culation was never so great per capita
as it ia today.
We declare our steadfast opposition
to the free and Delimited coinage of
silver. No measure to that end could
be considered which was without the
support of the leading commercial coun
tries of the world. However firmly
Republioaa legislation may seem tc
have secured the country agaiast the
peril of base aud discredited currency
the eleetioa of a Democratic president
could not fail to impair the oouutry'i
oredit sad to bring once wore into qnes
Moa the iateutiou of the American ieo
le to Bkaiataiu upon the gald standard
the parity of their money circulation.
The Democratic party must be con
vinced that the American people will
never tolerate the Chicago platform.
On th Qtivatlnn of Trnsta.
We recognize the necessity and pro
priety of the honest co-operation of cap
ital to meet new business conditions, ,
anil especially to extend our rapidly in
creasing foreign trade, but we condemn
all- conspiracies and combinations in
tended to restrict business, to create
monopolies, to limit production or to
control pi-ices, and favor such legis
lation as will effectually restrain and
prevent all such abuses, protect and
promote competition and secure the
rights of producers, laborers aud all
who are engaged in industry and com
merce. Iparatlon for Protection.
We renew cur faith in the policy of
protection to American labor. In that
policy our industries have been estab
lished, diversified aud maintained. By
protecting the home market, the com
petition has been stimulated and pro
duction cheapened. Opportunity the
inventive genius of our people has been
secured and wages in every depart
ment of labor have been maintained at
high rates, higher now than ever before,
thus distiugnislring our working people
in their better conditions of life from
those of any competing countrv. En
joying the blessings of American com
mon schools, secure in the right of self
government and protected in tho occu
pancy of their own markets their con
stantly increasing kuowlege aud skill
hve enabled th. m finally to enter the
markets of rim wr.rl.1 V f,.vor th
associated policy of reciprocity, so di
rected as to open our markets on favor
able terms for what we do not ourselves
produce in returu for free foreign mar
kets. In the further interests of American
workmen, we favor a more effective re
striction of the immigration of cheap
labor from foreign lauds, the extension
of opportunities of education for work
ing children, the raising of the age
limit for child labor, the protection of
free labor as agaiust oonviet labor and
an effective system of labor insurance.
Our present dependence on foreign
shipping for nine-tenths of our foreign
carrying is a great loss to the iudnstry
of thi country. It is also a serious
danger to our trade for its sudden with
drawal in the event of a European war
wonld seriously cripple our expanding
foreign commerce. The national de
fense and naval efficiency of this coun
try, moreover, supply a compelling rea
son for legislation which will enable us
to recover our former place among the
trade carrying flis?ts of tho world.

Public movements Iixiking to per

Koliuitlon of Arid Laeda.
In the further pursuance of the con
stant poliey of the Republican party to
provide free homes on the publio do
main, we recommend adequate national
legislation to reclaim thn arid lands of
the United States, reserving control of
the distribution of water for irrigation
to the respective states aud territories.
We favor home rulo for and the early
admission to statehood of the territories
of New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma.
War Tasks and Nlflarag-ns Csaal.
The Dingloy act, amended to pro
vide sufficient revenue for the conduct
of the war, has so well performed its
work that it has been possible to reduce
the war debt in the sum of $40,000,000.
So ample are the government's revenues
and so great is the public confidence In
the integrity of its obligations, that its
newly funded two per cent bonds sell
at a premium. The country is now
jastified in expecting anil it will bo the
policy of the Republican party to bring
about a reduction of tho war taxes.
We favor the construction, owner
ship, control and protection of an
isthmian oanal by the government of
the United States. New markets are
eoessary for the Increasing surplus of
our farsn products. Kvcry effort should
be made to epen and obtain new mar
kets, especially in the Orieut, and the I
administration is warmly to be com-'
mended for its successful effort to com
mit all trading and colonizing nations
to the policy of the open door in China
rpprmnt of Conimrre Favord. .
In the interest of our expanding com
merce we recommend tliat congress cre
ate a department of commerce and in
dustries in the charge of a secretary,
with a sent in the cabinet. The United
States consular system should be reor
ganized under the supervision of this
new department npou such a basis of
appointment and tenure as will render
it still more serviceable to the nation's
increasing trade.
Tho American government must pro
the person and property of every
citizen wherever they are wrongfully
violated or placed in peril.
We congratulate the women of Am
erica ujion their splendid record of pub
lic service in the volunteer aid associa
tion, and as nurses in camp and hospital

Treatment of the rhlflpplnss.
In accepting by the treaty of Paris
the juat responsibility of our victories
In the Spanish war, the president and
the senate wna the undoubted approval
of ' the American ' people. No other
course was possible than to destroy
Spain's sovereignty throughout the
West Indies and in the Philippines.
That course created our responsibility
before the world and with the unorgan
ized population whom our intervention
had freed from Spain, to provide for
maintenance of law and order, and for
the establishment of good government
and for the performance of international
obligations. Our authority could not
