f A Reform Needed.
At the meting of the Chamber of
of Commerce of Knoxville, Tenn.,
Mayor S. G. Heiskell, as chairman of
a committee on industrial education,
presented an elaborate report showing
the need of just that sort of education
In the South. He urged recognition
of the fact that It is just as honorAble
to develop a coal mine as to be
a congressman. Just as Important
to construct and operate a textile
mill as to be a senator, just as lofty
bnlld a railroad and open the riches
JBof a new section as to hold a Judiciary
position. But he recognized that rubHV
He opinion must be brought up to a
recognition of those facts so as to
^ Impress upon legislative bodies the
necessity for providing the proper
sort of education?an education which
should teach the rising generation of
the South that it is just as dignified
just as honorable and just as socially
elevating to be an inventor, a machinist,
a manufacturer, a manager of a
coal mine, a developer of a marble
quarry or a builder of a railroad as
to follow one of the learned professions.
Mayor Heiskell pointed to the
work being done already by the University
of Tennessee, and expressed
a hope that Its influence would gradually
spread until the whole State
should favor practically the never industrial
training.
It is just such speeches as that of
Mayor Heikell which ought to do effective
work for the South. He spoke
as a practical man dealing with a practial
problem. His words, as well as
the words of others on the same line,
should be given practical support, and
the best wav of getting this Is for Individuals
who in their own success
recognize the advantages of industry
? to set the example of liberality on the
part of legislatures acting for the people
of the State by liberality on their
own part toward Institutions already
endeavoring against tremendous odds
to meet the increasing demands of
Southern youth.

rhe Beet Sugar Industry.
A most important article glTing
... I
Messrs. Oxuard's and Cutting's views j
an the beet sugar industry In tills :
country appeared ou the editorial page j
of the New York Evening Post of December
12 last, and as every houselio
d in the laud is interested in sugar
the article will be of universal interest.
THE BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.
The Evening Post bids the heartiest
welcome to every American industry
that can stand on its own bottom and
make its. way without leaning on the
poor rates. Among these self-supporting
industries we are glad to know, is
the production of beet sugar. At all
events, it was such two years ago. We
publish elsewhere a letter written In
1S09, and signed by Mr. Oxnard and
Mr. Cutting, the chiefs of this industry
on the eastern side of the Rocky
Mountains, showing that this was the
happy condition of the trade at that
time. If parties masquerading as beet j
sugar producers are besieging the j
President nnd Congress at this moment,
and preteuding that they will be
ruined If Cuban sugar is admitted for
six months at half the present rat^s of i
duty their false pretences ought to be !
exposed.
The letter of Messrs. Oxnard and j
Cutting was probably written for the i
purpose of inducing the farmers of the
Mississippi Valley to go more largely
into the cultivation of beets for the
sugar factories. This was a laudable
motive for telling the truth and showing
the large profits which awaited
both the beet grower and the manufacturer
if the industry were perseveringly
and intelligently prosecuted. To
this end it was pointed out that farmers
could clear $65 per acre by cultivating
beets, and might even make
$100. But in order to assure the cultivator
that he would not be exposed to
reverses by possible changes in the
tariff, they proceeded to show that the
industry stood in no need of protection.
Tho hppf snrrflr industrv. these een
tlernen say, "stands on as firm a basis
as any business in the country." They
point out the fact?a very important
one?that their product comes out as a
finished article, refined and granulated.
It is not. like cane sugar grown in the
West India Islands, a black and offensive
paste, which must be carried in
wagons to the seaboard and thence by i
ships to the United States, where, after
another handling, it is put through ,
a costly refinery, and then shipped by
rail to the consumer, who may possibly
be in Nebraska, alongside a beet

producer of Beet sugar for suppi/fne
the domestic consumption an? Toy
great. We have no doubt that Measm
Oxnavd and Cutting are within bocode
when they say that "sugar can be pcth
duced here cheaper than it can be
Europe." The reasons for this an*
that?
"The sugar Industry is, after a9,
merely an agricultural one. We pet
undersell Europe in all other troga.
and sugar is no exception."'
It follows as naturally as the making;
of flour from wheat. If we can produce
wheat cheaper than Europe, the*
naturally we can produce floor cheaper,
as we do.
But the writers of the letter <!? act
depend upon a-priori reasoning topror*
that they can make sugar at a prwft
without tariff protection. They point
to the fact that under the McKiniey
tariff of 3890, when sugar vras free off
duty, the price of the article was four
cents per pound. Yet a net profit of
per ton was made by the beet sugar
factories under those conditions, not
counting any bounty on the home piuitnnftnn
nf aiiffir Thpv hn??t Hint
they made this profit while
under absolute free trade, and tky
have a right to he proud of this resadt t
of their skill and Industry. Mny
beet sugar factories bad been started
in l)j gone years, back in the afrcthw
and seventies of the nineteenth eo?~
tury, and had failed, because the pre'
Joi-tors did not understand toe hmd
ness. Since then great program hmheen
made, both here and a breed. in
the cultivation and manipulation c the
beet. What was impossible thirty
years ago is now entirely feasible. He
industry is already on a solid ami emdnring
basis. There are factoriee Sm
the United States, these gentle?m
tell us in their letter, capable of wing
350,000 tons of beets per annum at *
profit of $3 per ton, and this weald
make a profit of $1,050,000 as the hecome
to be earned under absolute Cnr
i:rade.
It mast be plain to readers of He
letter, signed by the captains of the
beet sugar industry, that the people ha
Washington who are declaiming
against the temporary measure Triad}
the President of the United State*
urges for the relief of the Cuban pern
r>l<v nre either srrosslv ienorant of the
subject, or are practising gross deception.
The tenable ground for them is
to say: "Other people are having protection
that they do not need, and
therefore wc ought to have more than
we need." This would be consistent
with the letter of Messrs. Oxnsrd sod
Cutting, but nothing else is so. %
