| Show ANOTHER SUGAR nothing seems too mean for the enemies of home industry in utah to eay of the utah sugar factory since our local contemporary has learned that the bounty ia not democratic it publishes all kind of evil reports concerning it last week it declared in order to prejudice the people that the sugar company had joined the Gp ecklas sugar trust which report there is no more foundation for than that mythical bishop of whom we have heard so much and that no one baa yet been able to locate in its last issue the same paper publishes a another libel on the sugar company and attributes it i to mr S E it appears that gentleman lectured at pleasant grove a few evenings ago and this is what he is reported as saying i la speaking of bounties be said he voted for the bounty which was given the sugar factory at lehi but was not in favor ot bounties in general the reason he voted for the sugar bounty was because the managers of the factory name to the committee of the legislature that had this matter in charge and asked them to biye them a little aid in the start this bounty was granted anly upon the factory managers giving a solemn promise that iliev would never ask for another only two yeara have elapsed when they come asking for another bounty thua breaking bre akine their solemn pledge mr JOBS E BOOTH was a member of the twenty ninth session of the legislature that ga the sugar bounty he was chairman of the committee on manufacture and commerce and made the report recommending that that bounty be given we called on mr boom and asked him it he knew anything in relation to the above premise he said that so far as the council was concerned there was such promise exacted or given of course he eaid 1 I an a n unable to say what was done in the house at the same time I 1 never before heard of it or of its being mentioned mr statement is to every one because its origin we believe can be traced to his own fertile imagination there was no sugar company in existence when the law was passed giving a bounty so how could the managers give a solemn promise that they would never ask for another bounty the utah augir company was not organized until about october following the adjournment adjourn mant of the twenty ninth I 1 legislature those holding stock can verify the truthfulness of our statement this seems to be similar to the case democrats and dates somehow do no agree |
