I TAFIFF QUESTION MISUNDER STOOD "The averagfe production of sugar in Louisiana is ope ton to tho ucre. The average production in Cuba is four tons to the acre with cheaper labor. It is to make up this differ ence to a few Louisiana sugar plan ters that 112*000,000 inhabitants ^of the Uniter States are taxed 1 8-4 cents a pound on their sugar."? To peka State Journal. ' It is regrettable that the forgoing statement is in line with the misun derstanding that many people liave of the sugar tariff. As a matter of fact, Louisiana cane growers are but a small part of the American sugar industry. A tariff of 1 3-4 cents means $1. 76 a hundred pounds. If the avei age American family uses three sacks of sugar yearly, theoretically it pays ?6.25 more for sugar than it might pay if the foreigner did not have' to pay this as a tariff tax to support our government when he ships his sugar here. Yet our domestic beet sugar pro duction is the safeguard that pre vents us from being completely at the mercy of the foreign sugar pro ducer as to prices. But for the tar iff that enables American sugar pro ducers to exist and compete, -Ameri can consumers would pay a higher price for sugar than they now pay with tariff tax. Also, any reduc tion in the tax now levied on foreign 3U(jtlr which aggregates dbout $100 000,00 a year would have to be made upi by increased taxes on American property. Let the tariff quesiton be under stood as a business, not a political issue. V ' ROOM and meals ? npecial fall and winter rates ? Mrs. C. C. Kilpatrick, Main Street, Brevard, N. C. 4 t. pd. Oct. 30.
