SENSE AND NONSENSE.
The Louisiana sugar planters who
met in convention in New Orleans a
few days ago, ratified the action of
previous meetings of planters and re
solved to tie themselves to the Re
publican party. They declared not
only for protection for sugar but for
all other American industries. What
a nice figure the aforesaid Louisiana
planters cut when they decided to
form an alliance offensive and de
fensive with the Republican party,
against which they had been fizhtine
for nearly thirty years, because, as
they declared, they were opposed to
it principles, a cardinal one of which
was protection. All this time the
Democratic party had been fighting
the protective policy of the Republi
can party, never met in convention
that it didn't denounce that policy,
ana tnese same planters endorsed
that denunciation and rallied year
after year at the polls and voted for
the candidates who stood on the
Democratic platforms.
With the Democracy of other States,
they held that unnecessary taxation
was unjust taxation, and that a tariff
for protection was essentially
wrong. They voted that way for
years, they voted two years ago for a
tariff for revenue only, and when
the Wilson tariff bill was under
consideration they endorsed all the
reductions of duties that were pro
posed and never thought of finding
fault until sugar was touched and
there was a proposition to lop off
the bounty from that. Then they
showed how far they were actuated
hry principle and how honest they
were in their former tariff reform ut
terances. It was all right to put
other things on the free list, and to
reduce the tariff on everything else,
but sugar was too sacred to be
touched, and the bounty must remain
on that, which means that every per
son, rich or poor, who bought a pound
of Louisiana sugar, had to pay the
sugar maker a royalty of two cents a
pound.
If they had been deprived of all
protection they might have some
shadow of excuse for the position
they now take, but they still have in
lieu of the bounty of two cents a
pound, a protective duty of a cent
a-quarter a pound, which is really
better for the average sugar grower
than the two cent bounty was, which
went into the pockets of the rich
planters and sugar makers, and not
into the pockets of the poorer plant
ers, who sold their cane to the
wealthy men who operated the sugar
making plants.
What a contrast between these
selfish, greedy, unprincipled pro
claimed of their own political insin
cerity and dishonesty and the Dem
ocratic wool growers of Texas who
never whimpered when wool, one of
their principal staples, was taken
from the dutiable list and put upon
the free list. There has been no
kicking in Texas, no denunciation of
the Democratic party, no renuncia
tion of the principles they had been
contending for, and no bolting from
the Democratic party because it en
acted into law the declarations
embraced in its platform.
Like true, consistent and
loyal Democrats they accept the
logic of their own argument, and
like honest men are willing to be
dealt by as they would deal by
others. That's the difference be
tween the Texas Democratic wool
grower and the Louisiana (so-called)
Democratic sugar cane grower.
Aside from the consistency and
adherence to principle which the
Texas wool-grower shows and the
Louisiana planter does not show, the
former shows business sense and the
latter lack of sense in the courses
they respectively pursue. The sugar
grower in Louisiana made sugar and
made money on it when the had no
protection and no bounty. Within
the past five or six years the beet
sugar industry has been growing and
may eventually become a formidable
competitor of cane sugar. This is
comparatively a new industry in this
country; the cane sugar industry
is old. The beet sugar men
declare that protection or a
bounty is essential to their success.
If this be so, then it is the height of
folly for the sugar planters of Lou
isiana to be insisting upon a policy
which the beet sugar men say, and
they admit, will build up the beet
sugar industry. Common business
sense would suggest their advocacy
of such a policy as would not foster
this new industry to become a dan
gerous competitor of theirs. The
reverse of this is just what they are
doing, if a bounty be necessary to
the preservation and growth of the
beet sugar industry.
The Texas wool grower shows
more sense when he cheerfully ac
cepts free wool, because he knows
that he can grow wool without pro
tection, while the wool growers of
the Northern States declare they
can't. If they can't then the wool-
growing industry must perish in
those States, and survive only in
States like Texas, which have the
ample pasturage, climatic and other
advantages which enable them to
grow wool without the fostering care
of the Government. Reducing the
area of wool-growing and the conse
quent reduction of the output will,
of course, make it all the better for
those engaged in the business.
From a business standpoint the
Louisiana planter shows a lack of
sense, the Texas wool-grower lots
of it.
MINOR MENTION.
It is quite evident that the Repub
licans in the North are going to run
their campaigns this Fall on the sec
tional issue, in which they will sub
titute the tariff for the bloody shirt,
which they flaunted until they wore
it out. The key note was raised
during the discussion of the tariff
bill in Congress and has been taken
up all along the line. When Gover
nor McKinley went to Maine to
rouse the Republicans of that State
the burden of his discourse was that;
the new tariff is a Southern tariff,
gotten up in the interests of the
South and against the North, the
great manufacturing section. They
don't believe this and they know it
is not true, but it is politics and
when the Republican politician gets
down to business truth cuts a very
small figure. The Republicans of
New York followed up vigorously
on - this line in their con
vention Tuesday, that being the
striking and significant feature of
the platform adopted. It is a sweep
ing denunciation of the new tariff as
a Southern measure, accompanied by
a denunciation of the Northern
Democrats who voted for it, and
voted for that income tax, which
hurts them about as badly as the
new tariff does. They were singu
larly inconsistent, however, when
they appealed to the voters who do
not want any more tariff agitation to
put the Republican party back into
power and restore McKinleyism.
These platforms, however, do not
amount to much any further than
that they show the hands and the
game of the party we have to fight.
i
The nomination of Levi P. Morton
as the Republican candidate for
Governor of New York, last Tues
day, has been foreshadowed for
some time. He was the choice of
the machine. Boss Piatt was not
only playing for a candidate of his
own, but for a candidate with money,
who would shell it out freely, as it
is taken for granted Morton will.
Mr. Morton isn't so anxious to be
Governor of New York, but as New
York is a very important State in
Presidential elections, if he can
carry it, it will put him away
up at the front as a candi
date for the Presidency. This
was, doubtless, the considera
tion with him in agreeing to run for
the Governorship. His nomination
under the circumstances is as good
as the Republicans could have made,
if not the best, and it means work
for the Democrats, if they beat him.
He is a man with an unimpeachable
record, as far as we know, and will
command the solid support of his
own party and possibly much of the
floating vote. The Republicans will
work hard not only for the moral ef
fect of a victory in a great State
like New York, which is really Dem
cratic, but for the same reason that
the Republicans of Maine worked
hard. Victory will make Morton a
prominent Presidential possibility as
the victory in Maine did Reed.
The picturesque Republican cam
paign prevaricator is already begin
ning to get in his work from the
other side of the Mississippi river.
The latest is a dispatch imparting
the amazing information that the
sheep owners out in that country
have become desperate since free
wool has become the order of the
day and have gone to slaughtering
their sheep right and left. They are
in such a hurry to slaughter them
and get them off their hands that it
will tax all the railroads out in that
section to carry this mutton to mar
ket, and every available freight
car on a half-dozen of the roads
out there has been impressed
into service to haul dead sheep, and
some of the roads have been com
pelled to borrow cars. Since the
world began, according to this
veracious dispatch builder, there
never was such a simultaneous and
unanimous slaughtering of sheep, nor
such a prospect of cheap mutton.
The only fear is that they will over
stock the market and make mutton
so common and cheap that even the
sheep-killing dog would turn up his
nose at it and pass it by. If there
was any truth in this liar's dispatches,
the Southern wool-growers might
exclaim, "let 'em kill. That's dough
nuts for us."
CURRENT COMMENT.
The New York World's decla
ration that the Sugar Trust is behind
the Louisiana bolters from the Dem
ocratic party may or may not be
true; we have no way of passing
judgment on the case; but this we
do now, that if the Trust thinks the
bolt in Louisiana is going to have
any influence upon Democrats else
where except to strengthen them in
their allegiance to the party, it is mis
taken. Mobile Register, Dent.
If the Republicans are cor
rect in their assertions that the sheep
raising business in this country has
been ruined by the new tariff law,
why are those Colorado ranchers so
wrought up because somebody killed
a few of their sheep the other day?
The ranchers have taken their guns
and gone off vowing they will shoot
or hang the miscreants that troubled
their flocks. Would they do that
if the sheep business were ruined?

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.
For the Week Ending; Monday, Sept.
17, 1894.
Central Office, Raleigh, N. C.
The reports of correspondents of
the Weekly Weather Crop Bulletin,
issued by. the North Carolina State
Weather Service, for the week end
ing Monday, September 17th, 1894,
indicate that the weather has con
tinued very dry. The showers Tues
day evening and Wednesday were
too light to be of much benefit. The
temperature and sunshine continued
above normal except on Wednesday,
which was followed by several com
paratively cooler days. Prospects for
cotton not so good as was once
thought. The crop is about half
open, and picking is progressing rap
idly. Much pea-vine hay saved this
week. Drought is injuring peanuts,
potatoes and other late crops consid
erably. Several reports received of
damage to fodder by army worms.
On account of drought, late hay crop
not very good.
Eastern District. The weather
during the past week has been very
warm and dry. Rain is needed
badly, as turnips are suffering for
lack of moisture, and also peanuts,
late potatoes and peas. Weather
was splendid, however, for outdoor
work, for saving hay, fodder and
picking cotton. Fodder-pulling
nearly over and hay-making going on.
Cutting rice continues. Cotton seems
to be about half open; there are some
complaints of short staple and that it
has been too dry for late crop to ma
ture. The general opinion seems to
be that the cotton ctop will not be as
large as anticipated a few weeks ago.
Central District. The temper
ature and sunshine were above nor
mal daring the past week, and the
rainfall much below. Dry weather
is very injurious to peas, turnips and
potatoes. Since the pulling of fod
der some farmers are disappointed
with their crop. Cotton picking is
going on rapidly, with good weather
for it. Crops will apparently be less
than expected.
