I i f the said statement of preference is absolutely untrue The Utah-Idaho Utah Sugar company is In and has hns been at nt al all allUmes times Umes In favor tn of ot giving sI not only American citizens bu citizens of Utah and Idaho the preference and In proof of this I will say that at the Lehi factory which Is one of the be largest of the company's factories none of the alien aBen class clasa referred to are employed because there are enough American citizens to do the work Idaho is a new and aDd sparsely nettled state where the sugar factories are established but preference is ss given gi to citizens of that state when white men inca can bo ho employed b by the tho company com corn pany panr But Dut if tr tho the factories had ball noto now no to depend entirely on residents and citizens to furnish the labor for the tho sugar factories in Idaho they could not run Time will remedy this condition con con- as It has hns done in Utah And I may mar add that when the thousands thousands thousands thou thou- sands of or people now living Ing in want wan In thickly settled parts of ot the East find out that so much better living can cnn be made in these western states than in their congested districts I believe they will wm come west settle on our vacant lands accept tho the labor that these factories and other institutions will be to give e them and make themselves and their fam fain mes independent But until white labor is available these companies are aro under the necessity of engaging such labor as can be had JOHN C.
