TRUST THAT COMES HOME
What thfl Advance in tbo Price
of Sugar Means to the Sugar
Trust and the Family.
Baltimore Sun-.
Americana consume some 7,
300,000,000 poimhIh of sugar a
yeao. An advance of a single
ewit a poumd iwiiouuits to $73,000,
000. The Sugar Trust haa raw
ed the price until the consumer
hiiu to Hiy more for this nee
sity than he huus paid n 20 year.
Aocordiiiig to tlie estimate of the
Springfiold RepublivaiH this
meaiw a tax of $7.50 on every
family. In reality it means much
more thtan. that, for we must pay
more for our cakes, candies, pre
serves, jams and everything in
which Huguur ia used.
Tlie refiners promise no relief
in faet, they tell us the price
is likely to go higher. Their ex
planation" is that there is a
"world shortage in sugar"; that
th anon eroD in Cuba and the
beet crop fai Germany have fail-
ed; and while Kunska has a ma
lion tons surplus, that local laws
prohibit its exportation. This is
poor consolation for the consum
er. - lie refuses to accept the
word of a corporation that has
ruthlessly crushed out compe
titors, whose former officials de
ceived the-kr own stockholders,
whose employes were caught red
handed cheating the government
out of customs dues. ' Whether
justified or not, there v a gen
eral feeling that the trust has
seized upon, this pretext to mulct
the consumers. The juggling of
prices up and down strengthens
the kupresskm that manipulation
as much as shortage accounts
for the present market conditions
Trust methods are well illus
trate If in Louisiana. That State
hsis produoed, according to the
New Ouwm Pieayune, "one of

in. it hsitory.". If there is a
scarcity 'of raw sugar, its plant
ers have a right to expect high
prices. They must sell to the
trust, as it controls the refin
eries ami markets. Yet the trust,
the Picayune ways, pays much
less for raw sugar delivered at
its refiivery in New Orleans than
it dotw for foreign sugar deliver
ed at New York. "The excuse
for this diwcrUnination," says the
PicayuiK-. "is that if the pro
ducers of 1oukMHim had to ship
their sugars to New York they
woidd have to pay the freight
and ekirges." This is the sys

this country excited the Utense
interest in liabor circles and
among the public, generally as is
mauiiested in tbe case of the Mc

to be brought to the bar to
answer for allegerd complicity in
the dynamiting outrage that re
sulted in the ' destruction of th,
Los Angeles Times building and
the death of twenty -one men
working there, on October 1,
1910. The long and bitter fight
waged by tbe Times against the
labor unions and their methods,
the confession of Ortie E. Mc
Manugal aUegingthat an organiz
ed band of l:dxr leaders made a
business of destroying tbe lives
and property of those antagnos
tic to the labor unions, and the
active and generous support giv
en by the American Federation
