THE CUBAN QUESTION Intimately Mixed Up With the Tariff Tax on Sugar. EN0ELI0U3 PEOIITS OF THE TRUST rlie SiiKar Duties Intended ns a Sub liily to Grower Virtually a 'ft' SulHliy o n -lrniit Tne Turin Kcrila IlevUiou to l'rotcvt the Amer ican Consumer. , Tlio sugar trust already has a soft gimp, and if we annex Cuba it will plunder the people of more millions tlm cm-rod liirlff la rovlMiwl. Tho 'y' trust soils Its rcllned sugar on the basis of the cost of the raw sugar aud the tariff duty and prollt added. It liuys most of the raw sugar from Cuba and ou that pays the tariff duty, less a discount of 20 per cent, of which discount the trust gets at lenst oue balf. T'ie sugar from the Hiiilpplucs imported Into the United States Is al lowed a discount ou the tariff duty of 20 per cent, aud of this the trust gets nearly all. The sugar Imported from Hawaii comes in free of duty, so that auy Hawaiian sugar the trust buys It pays no duty upon. Of course the price of sugnr iu Cuba aud the Philippines Is somewhat Increased by the discount on the tariff duty, or, as In the case of Ha waii aud Porto Klco, by being admitted free of duty, there Is a subsidy amount ing to what the duty would be, to bo divided between the sugar grower and the sugar trust. The price of sugar lu the United States is fixed by the trust at Just a little less than foreign refined sugar can be Imported for after paying 1 15-100 cents per pound, which Is the tariff only on refined sugar. The tariff ou raw sugar ranges from 05-100 of a cent a pound up to 1 85-100 cents a pound, according to quality, though when it Is pure enough to be assessed at the higher duty It Is ranked as re fined sugar, and the duty Is 105-100 cents a pound. This difference In the tariff duty between refined sugar and enough raw sugar to produce the same amount of refined sugar Is the "dif ferential" in the tariff duty In favor of the trust. But the important matter to remember Is that as long as any sugar is taxed by the tariff all the sugar that is imported free of duty and the sugar that is Imported at a discount on the tariff duty are paid for by the people at the same price as if it was refined sugar Upon which the full duty had been paid. The domestic cane sugar grown In Louisiana and the beet sugar produced In several states are all sold at the highest price, so that virtually tho tariff duty Is a subsidy to the pro ducers. If all the sugar that can be grown In Cuba should be admitted free of duty and yet the tariff was maintained, the price of sugar would still be as high to the American consumer as if the gov ernment received the tariff tax on the same, which In round numbers amounts to $50,000,000 a year. So there Is an economic problem for the people of the United States to settle la considering the question of tho an nexuUon of Cuba entirely apart from the question of whether Cuba shall b free. If the revenue now produced by the tariff tax on sugar Is reduced or abolished, there will have to be some thing else taxed to make up for th loss of revenue from sugar. GET OUT THE LAGGARDS. Hepubliran Apathy the Democrat! Opportunity. The Republican managers of the con gressional elections are whistling to keep up the courage of themselves and their followers; but, like the boy pass ing through the graveyard nt dusk, thej are really "scured to death." They don't know what Is going to happen, for so many Republican voters are breaking away from their political moorings that nil the Information that comes to headquarters is replete with forebodings of defeat. The old Repub lican machine workers are not enthu siastic in the cause, for they do not see much benefit from success, except those who are holding down federal offices, and they, of course, are cnthu siastlcally putting in their time at poll tics Instead of attending to business. The late conference at the White House of the Republican leaders wai gloomy, although it was given out thai victory was certain. But the Repub lican brethren Bhould cheer up. Th tariff protected trusts are putting mon ey Into the close congressional dlstrlcti to save the stand pat congressional candidates, and matters may not be ai desperate ns the new amateur man agers are scared Into believing thej are. Democrats everywhere should taku advantage of the Republican apathy and by personally urging all Democrat! to tote victory is assured. There ar always enough stay at home voters t change the result lu close districts, and the whole Democratic problem Is to got these laggard voters to the polls. Republican Politic. In Delaware. If you don't believe that some good way come even out of Nazareth, re member that Gas Addlcks and the ne groes of Delaware have Just put an end to the political career of the noto rious Senator Allee. Some years ago rresident Roosevelt. In plain violation of the civil service law, expelled from office an efficient and worthy postmis tress "because she was personally of fensive to Senator Alice." W1H he now torn Addlcks and the negroes out of the Republican party because they have become offensive to Allee? It is sad when even Addlcks and the ne groes rebuke and overthrow the prw lenfs political favorites. For Bronchitis Take VINOL it heals the bronchial tubes and remedies the cough For centuries old-fashioned cod liver oil has been prescribed by phy sicians the world over for coughs, bronchitis, weak lungs and consump tion, but many could not take It on account of its useless fishy oil.

The Emmons mines are being worked full time these days and everything is in good shape and is prosperous. A party of northern men, including several of the mine owners, are there this week.

As the star Republican spellblndet Secretary Shaw Is, as Artcmus Ward would sny, "an nmusin' cuss." The trouble with Shaw is that his partisan philosophy Is out of pear and will not ftnnd the test of application to particu lar cases. Shaw In a speech at St Louis said, "I advise young men to vote for parties and not men, for par tics stand for principles and men do not always do so." Rut f the party Is corrupt and Its principles rotten what Is tho young man to do then? And ns unfortunately the Republican machine politicians in St. Louis and nearly ev erywhere else are under a cloud and Republican reformer. are declaring that Republican politicians are rotten to tho core and lu many states have proved that contention what would Shaw advise his young Republican friends to do under such circum stances? Does ho advise the young Republic ans of Iowa to vote the whole Repub lican ticket or would he say If his ad vice could be tendered privately, "Vote the Republican ticket, but scratch Cummins?" All the corrupt rings advise the young voters to support the whole tick et and pay no attention to the charac ter or corrupt doings of the leaders oc candidates. The Republican party In Philadelphia and Pennsylvania, In New Jersey,' In Now Hampshire, In New York aud other states will forever be wallowing la the mire of Penroseism, of Dryden corruption, of Oalllnger and Boston arid Maine railroad domination and of most disreputable machine politics in the Empire State If Shaw's advice were followed. The Republican party has conic to a sorry plight even with the utmost that the reformers In Its ranks can do, but when Its young and enthusiastic voters are advised to shut their eyes and vote blindly for all the rascals and stand pat policies and all the foolish old schemers of the Shaw typo who are labeled Republican no wonder the youug men balk. Shaw's advice would not only make the party a stench In the nostrils of decent peo ple, but a political cadaver that every one would be anxious to bury. The Democracy is different from Re publicanism. The independence of the young Democrat and his attraction to the honest and able leaders of the parly have been and will forever be the salvation of the party of tho peo ple. The Independence of Democrats makes platforms that will stand pop ular approval and candidates that will bear the Investigation that is the solo safeguard of the voters. The Democ racy Invites the young voter to study the former aud present policies of the party, to probe the character of Its candidates and aid in the nomination of able and honest ones and vote ac cordingly. STRAIN UPON VIRTUE. Contaminating Influences That Sur ronuil the President. The remedy of President Uadley of Yale for the political and other ras calities of the present day Is to ostra cise the eminent perpetrators. Presi dent Roosevelt evidently believes In the old plan of consorting with the sinners and thus engendering iu them perhaps fruits meet for repeutauce. Or is It the exigencies of the O. O. P. that require the president to Invite Ross Penrose to Oyster Bay to consult about haw to beat the Lincoln Repub lican reformers, aud Congressman Llt tauer, who escaped prosecution for the army glove contract frauds by virtue of the statute of limitations, on the factional tight In New York; and Cor telyou, chairman of the Republican na tional committee, who was receiver of the stolen funds from the policy hold ers of the life iusurance companies and who used the money to debauch the voters iu the doubtful states, whose aid lu again raising a campaign fund Is na doubt considered Indispensable; and Paul Morton, the self convicted re bater who was too warm a proposition to keep iu the cabinet, but his advice about railroad and Insurance contribu tions may be necessary. Perhaps constant association with the president will do more for these sinners than to ostracise them on the Uadley plan, but the question is. Can the great virtues of President Roose velt forever withstand these and like contaminating Influences? To consort all the winter with Republican con gressmen would make most of us quake, but that strain upon virtue, to be followed during the recess by the contaminating Influences described, would be too much for most patriots. Protection and Idleness. The window glass manufacturers are loaded, according to the New York Journal of Commerce, "with 2,000,000 boxes of glass, a third of a year's sup ply, which they have decided to work off at the present market prices before opening up the factories again." The men have been Idle almost a year and want to work. This shows that ultra r otectionlsm does not protect even the workers In this tariff protected In dustry, and every one has to pay dou ble price for glass because the tariff prevents competition and thus keeps the price unreasonable. The workmen are Idle more than half the time under this system and yet the Republicans stand pat. Ad&Fterated Medicines. The New York board of health has discovered that 72 per cent of all drugs on sale in that city arc "adulterated or In sonic other way fall to comply with the standard of the pharmacopoeia and are consequently unlawfully sold." These figures are .not guesswork, bui are founded upon analyses and assc7 of 10,000 specimens or samples.
