ployei in the fac o y had bei well al
-with thvir dite< the firit
year’s pro its, Mr. Spreck -ls thi iks,
would bavo been much graite:-.
He is so well sati-fied wi h his
beet sugar experim3 it ihat ie has formed a
company with a capi a! of $0,000,0U0 to
build ten bee sugar factories ii dffse.t
par s of the country, each of wh.ch is to
cost SSO 1,000.
Sugar beets can bs grown profitably in
mnny fiarts of this country, and farmers
can make as much money by cultivating
them as they can by cjilivati g almost any
otuer cn p. In fact, in California there is
110 crop ihat is more pr. fl able. The beets
there yi Id about 13 per cent, of sugar,
which i, 4 per cent, more than is < bt i ed
from beets in Germany. If. theref re, the
be*, sugir ind istry ii profit iblo in Ger
many, the e is no reason why it should not
be profit tide in th s c untry.
The climate and soil of this section of the
south are probably favorable to the grow
ing of sugar be.-f. Ai experiment with
taem might lead to imp rta it 1 emit'. If
t e opinion of Mr. Sp eckl s, tha i.o a few
vears this oou ilry will supply i,s own de
mand fir sugar, proves to be correc; ab m
$8J,000,03J that aun iallv goes a iroad for
raw sjgar will be kept in the cou itry.
Mr. Bpreekels says that tie sugar tru-t
tried to gel him to j in it, but fc.iat he was
too wide awake to permit a syudiente of
Wall s reet men to take charge of his beet
faetori sand sugar refi leries. He says he
is m a position to fight the trust, aid will
do so if the trus: doesn’. 1 t him alone. He
has just buil a sugar refi ie y in Pniladel
phia, whic i cost $3,000,000, but it will not
be usel in refining sugar which is pro
duced iu thi; cou.itry. It will bs used to
refine the imported article. If Mr. Si eckelf
accomplishes all he pro niS3S, the country
will be under oblig p ions to hi 11.
Oklahoma's Remarkable City.
During the last veek our dispat. bes hav>
told a wonderful story—that of the p iuging
i ito i-xi'tencd, as if by magic, of a City o,
15,030 inhabitants. At 12 o’clock lait M >n
d ly, Gutbri , Oklahoma, as a town o ily
in imag. nation. Before the sun sot that day,
Guthr.e cental.ie 1 15,000 inha ita its,
streets lad been laid off, an ehetion, at
which 10,000 people v tea, had been held
fi r mayor and c uucilmeo, a post office, a
bank aid ad Jy new (paper had been es -
abli-hed, and van >us b ism.ss ent rprisei
were being aiiyer.is and. By the end of the
week a s:xty-roo n hotel was ops \ed to tie
tu lie. Appirentiy tie only thing the
people of Guthrie could not do in a few
hour ,t' give ihe place the appealance of
a city, was to build u mses. T. e/ cmld
have bad them tra sported from states ad
joining Oklahoma, but doubles 9 they were
so t loroughly ab-o bed in theputti g and w.i
f stak s that they considered proper shelter
a secondary consideration. After they
made good their c aims, they could see
about budding or transpo ting houses.
The springi ig up of this citv iu a day is
a stnkmg i ista.ee of tha western way of
ru biug matters. Such a thing ciuld lot
iave been i ccom hshed in any other
country. It shows also that the American
>eople ( are always ready t. go in for tint
which is new. Public lnndi in various
tat have bean open to settlement all the
while, and the peopla have seemed to he
“land hungry,” and yet excellent lands in
pr. >g essive states we 0 ignored to a gre it
extent by them, and they rusued off in
thousands to a country that has ju.t been
opened for settlement.
The that Guthrie can never b>
muc i of a city, n the faith
of the settlers that it w ill be, is one which,
it is hopni, is not true. T.e soil in that
part of Oklahoma, accordi ig t) our dis
patches, is sterile; the cou try is not
uealthy, and blizzards cyclones and ex
treme heat follow each qtber in seison. If
such ia t e case, 1 e >ple will be a< auxiou
to leave Guthrie after awhile as they wore
to go there a wu.k ag >.

THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY. APRIL 29, 1889.
Comin? by houvinds.
The emig at.on from E irope to this
country within the last ie-v mouhi has
r ached extruordmary pro K)rti >l l. It is
esti natel ih it fro n 15,033 to 23.0)) 1 n m
grauts a e now c un.ng into this count y
thro igh the differei ports every week.
The steamsh p ro ufia ues are not ale to
handle all the t migrant truffie offi ell iem,
altnough they are m uii ig g ea; eifirta to
do so.
It is not easy to under'tmd why there is
sue lan outpouring f on E irope at this
ti ne. Tne cmJti ms there fo • poor pe >p!e
are no wrrse tha 1 th y have b e 1 for giv
en! years, aid tue l.iducem nts in this
countr .• to imraigren's are no better tha 1
th y have b -en a. *avs. in fact, in some
re> >ects they are no. so g>oi.
One of the reasons why this country is
receiv ng so naav im nigrunts is that
Europ an emig a*ion to South A ne ica has
p acticallyc ased. Thoss who have go ie
the e have suit 10 their old ho ues sueu un
fav rable r ports that thousands who in
tend:*! going have turajd t leir faces in the
direct.on of tn s c mutry. Anotner reas mis

up bu-iuess. Avery considirablo per
centage of tha Europian* who s ek horn l s
he eis dlsap ooin ed. The representations
made to them by stea nship agents are not
always true.
It is a question whether this country is
not getting more i umigrants than it wauts
and more iban it cun well take care of. I.
is certai 1 that ma ly who teach our shores
soo 1 Lee use a burden upon the communi
ties in whiou thivsettla. Thsvcause wages
t b; reduced, b -cause they como ia direu
competition with America! lauor. Tais
immigration q lestioa is o e that ou jht to
' ecu iy a good deal of the atte iiiou of con
gress next wi iter.
Adjuncts to r'armi ig.
Judre Howell Cobb, of Athe s, trdd the
Georg a farnie s. who met ia conventio . at
Brun-wick someciuie ago, that there was
money for them in th? raising of poultry.
Ha said that the demand for pou try and
e Jg s w 8 grea er tnan the supply, and tha,
as the cost of raising poultry in the s >uth
mi ght be said to be nominal, the sou.hern
farmers should pay more attention to
poultry.
Judge Cobb’s suggestion doubtless is a
very good one, and he might have added
that thiri are various othir ways in wh.c 1
sout ern far uers can mak * money in con
n cti ,n wi h farming. Tuey mig.it give a
part of their atte ition to tie breedi g of
horses and mule>. Some of them do, aid
a.Oie who du not only s .ve the money that
they would otherwise pav for this kind of
slock, but they a so make handsome pr fits
on tie silts of their surplus horses and
mules. A Sava na 1 man owns a Georgia
raised horse hich he bought from a Put
nam county farmer for $703, and he is
neg-tiaang for the purcuasi of another
from a d.ff -rent f irm;r of taat county.
Georgia fanners might also, a id so ne of
them do, make money in the dairy bus.ne s.
Tne b-st butter that go-s upo 1 the tables of
Georgians is made in this sta e, and one of
the most extei sive butter-making counties
< f the state has sold annually for some
years bet wee 1 35,030 and 40,U00 pounds of
butter, aid this year it expects 1 1 sell 55,0 0
or 60,003 p u.ids. The introduction of Jer
sey cattle into Ge rgla has made the dairy
busi less one of consid rable importance und
profit, and there will be a demand for all
be go and butte* that ca 1 i e male in the
state. Some Georgia and lirymiu havs sent
their Du ter t> New York, receiving 40
cents a pound for it.
Tne far ners wh > depe id almost entirely
upon csttoii for a living are, as a rule, the
ones who complain that farming and esa’t
pay.
The Oldest Living Postmaster.
A discussio 1 has bei Ig> n; >n in same of
the newspapers lately as to whith post na>t
er in the Uaitjd State; has Uell, wit 10 it
interr iptio 1, his cnumUsintie gre test
number of years. I, ba> reveals i th > fac,
that there are num >rous psst masters who
have been i 1 office continuously throuj 1 a
goid mny administrations. Thev til
offices of miner importance, of co irs i, for
a presidential postmaste. ship is very likely
to be c ia ged every tine timi tnere is a
change of a iministration.
So ne we ks ag> someone wrote to the
New Yrk Tribune that Postmaster
Palmer, of Gerry, N. Y., was entitled to
the distinctio 1 referrel t>. Mr. Palmar wa;
appoin e i in 1841. an 1 has, the 'More, lee 1
in office forty-e ght yeirs. It was s inn
ti me before any o e was found to dispute
Mr. Palmer's cliim, but finally the fact
was brought ont tha P > tmaster Beardsly,
of North Lin iu , Pa., could go bi n
fifteei years better, having been
appointed in 1890, and having serve 1
sixty-three years. That ap ie ued tp settl.*
it, and nothing else was said about the mat
ter until ths other dav, when Pot ua er
Thomas, of Ede 1, Jle., died. It senns that
Mr. Thomas was appoi ite lin 182>, ad at
the time the discussion was being carried o.n
he held tbeoldestc >ram -siou. Mr. Th vmas
having been removed by death, P > tmister
Beardsly’a claim of uaviag served his coun
try longer tha 1 any other living postm ister
must 11 iw be recognized, unless some • ne
should come fo ward to dispute it. There
are some postmasters in Ge rg.a whose pa
tri itis 11 lias caused t iem to hold on to then
offices a long while, but they will hardly
contest with Mr. B lurdsly the distinction of
being the post master wuo has been ia office

The republicm sio.ls.nsi a e ppching

Th>ysavheisv ry jea oas of Mr. Blaine,
a id that he has do ie thi igs wnich, but for
t.ia fact, he would no; avedme, in order
to make the people t ink that he was a

soared ad alie lated Reiator Q ny, and
’hat ne is in a fair wav to break the bonds
of party o ga dzati >n—that he is doing uli
ihat one mau could to rum his party and to
pave the way for a dem cratic Pre ident in
1892, and all because of ..is great vanity.
Tais shows that everything is not lovely in
the republican ca p, anil it is safe io say
that the e will be a big row if the President
