THE Seattle Po.-t Intelligencer, .lobn L. Wilson's paper, pays a high editorial tribute to (ienoral HarrUon. Mr. Wilson and General Harrison did not agree on many things but the editorial remarks of the Pont Jittdliycuar are of a most eulogistic character, being prefaced by the statement that "those who I Montgomery county farmers to have differed from him upon occasion small patches of sugar beets

will be the llrst. to pay to his memory them tested at 1'urdue.-1 the tribute that is its due.''

Commissioner Kvans retires from the head of the pension bureau, as it is generally believed he will in the neatfuture, his successor is practically certain to be a western man. ('apt.

Sanger of that state was appointed assistant secretary of war. -,r

THE history of Andrew Carnegie, who has recently given away over twenty-one million of dollars Tor philanthrop'e purposes, and who is not yet through, reads like romance. At an early age he was thrown upon his own resources without education, friends or money. By hard labor he obtained a start in life and by matchless enterprise and indefatigable labor he hasacquired the great fortune which he holds he says as a private trust. His genius and energy have builded cities and established industries that have goue far toward Is on" bl 1T giving this country its commercial im-1 portance in the world to-day. Had he never given a cent of his fortune to philanthropy he would nevertheless

The people of Indiana consume yearly more than loO.OOO.OOO pounds of suiiar at a cost of over ST.000,000, Would it not be well for us if we could manage to keep this vast sum of money at homo instead of sending it to foreign countries':* We, as a nation, are certainly making gratifying progress in the manufacture of beet suga., but are we making ail'the ^progress we can? The greatest obstacle in our way is perhaps the lack of people who are skilled in, beet raising, and who arc willing to get down on their knees and pull weeds and thin beets, for as yet we have no machinery [that will do this work, and, where beet sugar factories have boon successful, it is largely dOno ly women and children. But it has been shown by experience that, when a factory is once started, skilled beet raisers gravitate toward it l'i supply the demand.

Another matter to be considered is I that beets do not exhaust the soil of its fertility. A' celebrated chemist says that sugar is mostly the product of! sunshine, water and air. and hence the same ground may be planted in beets for years*without showing any signs of deterioration.

Why cannot Mont- .John Hell -hasj received a fine imgomery county? Michigan now has ported, rough coated Collie female pup ten beet sugar factories in successful I from Southampton, England. Mr. operation, no ODe of which co^t less Bell is very'proud of his purchase and than $300,000, and all of them have 1 has received with the pup's pedigree boen built within the last three years. clippings from English kennel papers, Michigan has a few active and zealous stating record of pup's ancestors. Kirkpioneers in this business, who went dale Patrick, sire of pup, is absolutely among the farmers and talked them the finest stud dog living, and has won into a trial of beet raising, and then sixty first prizes and championships, talked the capitalists into the belief I Master Patrick, a half brother of that beet sugar factories could be made as profitable as iron manufactories. And it was in this way that Michigan was induced to embark in the manufacture of beet sugar. At Bay City there are three factories within a radius of a few miles, and they are all making money. The country around Bay City, however, is largely settled by Hollanders, and these people were educated in beet raising in the old country, and they are realizing from $25 to $50 per acre from their lands after paying all expenses. It has been fully ascertained that large areas of Indiana are well adapted to the growth of the sugar beet. In fact, sugar beets, with a high per centage of sacharine matter, have been raised in Montgomery county and there is little room to doubt that enough land of the proper kind could be found in the oounty to supply a large factory with beete.
