■ Sugar Can®. Though some of the farmers are nearly through planting their cane, some are waiting for dryer weather. The importance of this- crop cannot be overestimated. There is an ever increasing demand for the best Georgia cane sirup.' Overproduction of either sugar or sirup need not be feared, The consumption of sugar in the Unit ed States exceeds the home supply. Raising sugar cane costs less than raising cotton, and to the' planters of many parts of southern Georgia there Is more money in it "When this crop receives the attention due it, sugar re fineries will increase Jn number. As we have said before, there is no rea- eon why the sugar and sirup business of Georgia should! not at least approxi mate that of Louisiana; The sugar refineries at Baxley, in Appling county, and Dupont, in Clinch, are doing good work for their respec tive sections. At Cairo, in Thomas county, is a large sugar plant of the best modern construction, where the juices .of the cane are being chemical ly treated in the most scientific man ner. Within a radius of IB miles from this town there are 2,000 acres plant ed in sugar cane. The shipments of sirup from Cairo amounted last year to 10,000 barrels. At Quitman, in Brooks county, one firm sells on an average 5,600 barrels of sirup a year. The sirup is pronounced by Professor Har vey W. Wiley, chief of the United States bureau* of chemistry, to be of a high £rade, and the market for it ex tends from Massachusetts to Texas. As a result of Professor Wiley’s visit to Georgia an appropriation of. $11,- 000 has been recommended by the con- .Savannah Sews, There is no reason why Mr. Bryan should no.t be the 1 ‘ Last Friday she came down the ... street three steps at a time and Governor nf culu .J 1 . da u te sailed into our- offiee like a. whirl- should be lie wnni < ?c b?a8ka * i3* IIf wi b d - Sfie waited for no ceremo- S’fwm* ■■ for He gressional committee on appropria- tions for the purpose of promoting the development of the sugar interest in Georgia and other southern states. Credit is due to Major D. G. Purse, president of the Savannah chamber of eomerce, who was very active in inter- esting the United States department of agriculture in this work and who took personal chargeVof Professor Wiley during his trip. Professor Wiley re ports having seen near Kinderton, on the McRae plantation, stalks of sugar cane more than 8 feet long and weigh ing froin four to six pounds each. The United States department of agricul ture intends making experiments to ascertain what kind of fertilizer will give the best results upon soils of dif ferent sections in Georgia and other southern states. Hence we are about to see the realization of the hopes that have inspired the efforts of this department ever since our accession to office, that in the great sugar cane in dustry Georgia would find even a bet ter, because a more permanent; source of wealth than, in her rapidly disap pearing forests of pine. was a candidate for President, is popul.ar in Nebraska. It is the understanding among Democrats of New York that it is practically settled that he will lead the fusionists of’his state next fall in the campaign for Governor. But,' if he should be elected, would he as pire to the Democratic nomination for President? There is no reason for thinking that he harbors a hope of being a presidential candidate a third time in succession. There will be a great deal of spec ulation as to his purpose in accept ing a gubernatorial nomination. His enemies will po doubt say that he is taking that course to Becure the presidential nomination again. But they will hardly believe what they say. Mr. Bryan knows that he would not be a strong presidential candidate unless the political situa tion in 1904 should be very different from what it is now. But Mr. Bryan may be aiming to be the power behind the throne. He may be seeking a position from which he can practically dictate the ticket and the platform. If ho were to be elected Governor of Nebraska by a very large majority he would be a prominent and influential le&d^ 1 er of the Democratic party in 1904. He would have a following that it would not be wise to ignore. ■ • But he will not be a candidate for nomination, He has virtually said as much. He understands bet ter than his enemies that his party will not look to him to lead it in the next national contest.

On the day that Prince Henry sailed away homeward bound lie told Chief Wilkie of the pecret service that he hoped p to come back again incognito, “and look at the things he did not see this time.” He will have much to see, and a groat deal that will in terest him. The view of Ameri can life that he got during his three week’s visit was pretty; near ly all artificial, fixed up for the occasion, and not at all represen tative of that American life that goes, to make up the strength of the nation.
