An urguint-nt often liuiltd ut the saloon-less condition of affairs in this city is to the effect t ha' more drunkenness is to be seen here auy time than is seen in a saloon town of correspondin 5! siza. true, mere is a goou iea no . a 'II of drinking done here, und u goodly number of drunks are in evidence at stated periods, but they are the exception ruther than the nil". Since saloons have been barred out of the city no such condition of affairs, or anything approaching it, has been known ns that which called out the following wail from the Payson Header: A UKist deplorable state ofafTairs was evident here on Christmas Some of our best (supposed to be) citizens fathers anil brothers were in such a despicable state of intoxication v, hich knows no decency; no reason; no man-fulness. man-fulness. Some of these neruons are the holders of important positions in social and ecclesiastical functions and it is a shame that any one of them should so far forget and mal-trcat his trust, his duty to family and friends to decency and prosperity. A person witi do well to guard his act ions at all times and not blight the fond hopes of loving- parents and ruin his own career by dissipation; which evil is itrowini: to alarming proportions. It is distrusting to see men, fathers of bright families, socompletely'loaded" that navigation is almost impossible; thereby losing all a man can, by be coming a drunkard. We will not see prosperity until our people become more saving, industrious and farther vitinned, then will the day draw near when our youth and manhood will assert itself throw off the gowns of intemperance and immorality, and at last become a community of eople superbly developed physically, mentally men-tally and morally. There may have been, and probably was, drinking here in plenty on Christmas day, but no such exhibitions as depicted nhov occured. Whatever liquor may have been imported from Provo and Spanish Fork, a very small quantity evidently, was exhausted early Christinas Eve, and Christmas morning s.iw the beginning of u very drouthy day. The writer saw out-of-town lads struggling with "horrible thirsts" and heard them bewailing be-wailing the fa :t that there was nothing to drink to be had in town. No, Sir, there was no Saturnalia Saturn-alia of debauchery in this city during the holidays. BEET SVGAR POSSIBILITIES. In a letter to the New Yoik Sun of Nov. 17, Mr. Francis Wayland Glen presents some interesting facts in reply to the recent attack upon the btet sugar industry of America in an ariicle by Edward F. Atkinson of Boston in the Forum. For the year 1896 tho record of the beet sugar manufactory at Wat-sonville, Wat-sonville, Cal., showed that the awrage yield of beets was 1-1.06 gross tons per acre, producing an average of 3,545 pounds of sugar. The farmer received $4 per ton for the beets, or $.r0 per acre, says the American Economist. Econo-mist. Here comes in a valuable comparison of the results to the firmer in thecullivation of sugar beets and of wheal. Mr. Glen finds that with the present duty upon imported raw sugar, it cannot be laid down in New York or San Francisco, duty-paid, duty-paid, at less than 3J cents per pound. Therefore, to pay for the sugar product of the average aver-age acre of beets will require $124, or 165 bushels of wheat ut 75 cents per bushel, or the pro-dactofSi pro-dactofSi acres of land ut 20 bushels per acre. Allowing that the average per acre of good land is 12 tons of beets, yielding 3,000 pounds of sugar, this gives the farmer $50 per acre, while the refined sugar at 3J cents per pound gives the refiner $105 per acre, or a margin mar-gin of $55 for his services in converting an acre of beets into refined sugar. With an average of thirteen bushels of whaatto the acre in the United States for the past seven years, and an average price of CO cents per bushel, the farmer has realized but $7.80 per acre as the gross result of wheat growing. He must use more than sii acres of his land to produce the amount that he can realize fer one acre of beets. LUHlS WHlUf 111 (1st (A11S. w Bert Couh Syrup.

As regards the financial re suits of the beet tugar industry to the entire country, tlie ili in-onUration in-onUration which Mr. Gicn obtains ob-tains from his facts inid liuuies is an important one. He says: We consume 2,000,(;C0 tons of sugar annually. To produce, it at 3.U.0 pounds an acre will require I, :!.'W,!M.'i acres of land of ood quality well cultivated. cul-tivated.

Sugar is one of the must valuable and Important foods consumed h.v highly civilized people. We should not h.; dependent upon any other people for our supply. Our I'i ui t industry in-dustry demands sugar .for it- promotion; promo-tion; so does our condensed miik Industiy. We are producing many all of the iron, steel, glass, vihiii-lead, vihiii-lead, pottery, tin plate, rope, t '.v inland inl-and machinery we consume, and shaii ut no distant day produce at lea-4 the sugar we are compelled to import for home eonsumpt ion. The heel sugar industry, like Hi it of tin plate, has come to stay. Next, year the largest heet simar manufactory manu-factory in the world will he consum ing 3,000 tnn.i per day of California beets. This means paingthe tanner $120,000 per day for heels. If the factory runs 120 davs for the season of 18!)8, it means $1,440,000 ilislmrsed to the farmers in a single locality for sugar beets. The sugar beet Industry has passed tho experimental stage. When a practical sugar producer and refiner like Mr. Clans Spreckles invests in-vests $2,000,000 in a beet, sugar refinery, it is proof poiive thai the industry is one of great value to the farmer and refiner. The gain in volume of business of niercantlle and nianufactiiritig industries indus-tries in 1897 over ISiKi was 20 prr ce nt. Money was easy during the entire year. Prices of staples have ruled lower. The fruit and grain j ield was up to tho average ami demand was good. Collections have shown a decided de-cided Improvement.. The outlook fi r 19S8 is regarded as very fair. The above Silt Lake repoit from Bradstreet's shows tin t there is something in the pros perity talk after all. The slate of business in Springville for the past year fully bears it out. Recovery from the effects of the crash of 1892 is slow, of course, but we believe is not e the le.s certain. A contract has been closed for the erection of a beet sugar factory fac-tory ,nt Ogden. This u good news, and means much for the Ji n!ti )n City. The public spirited cit zns who have pushed this matter through to a highly sntsfactory conclusion are worthy of the support and gratitude of tho people of the northern part of the Stale in general, and of Ogden in particular. par-ticular.
