THE TARIFF ON SUGAR.

II seems that our friends OF the Sugar
Planters Association were premature In as-
Stunning that the question of the sugar tariff
was finally disposed of. for the present ses-
sion ut least. The fact is TINT the question Ia
far from being disposed Of, and tho very per-
sons who. three days ago, were singing that
syren song to us are now the very ones who
ars telling the bad news. The situation Mt
present appears TO be that the sugar importers
will succeed In reviving thu whole discussion
through the medium OF vote OF reconsidera-
tlon, and with the matter once more opened
and with all the agencies that favor n reduc-
ton OF the tariff once more Mt work, there is no
telling how the controversy may end. Alto
gether the most powerful influence In the
the country. 30 far as concerns Congress, are
enlisted In the struggle to secure n modtiica-
tlon Of the tariff. The importers and retiners
have common cause. They constitute a
large and potent element by reason Of their
wealth, and they are made stronger still
through tho geographical consideration Of
belonging to tho East instead Of the South
With such men rs Sam Randall, Fernando
Wood, and the other leaders In the House. the
Havermeyers exert larger influence than
the whole State Of Louisiana, under existing
circum stances, is able to exert.
As we have commended from the outset. 1t Is
all humbug to say and mere infatuation to
believe that we are really factors In the pro-
blem. No Intelligent and well-informed OBJ
server or the question can possibly delude
himself with the idea that regard for Louis
lana or desire to encourage our great indus
try enters into the calculations OF the gov
eminent for one single moment. The reflners
ara endeavoring to obtain lower duties on the
grades OF sugar they employ In their busi-
ness, and, as this would result in some
dimlnutlon Of the price to consumers.
1t has presumptive claim to the aid and ap-
proval OF Congress-. II there were no other
conei Iteration involved. 1t cannot be doubted
that Congress would, without an instant's
hesitation grant the prayer Of the retiners,
and thus crush the sugar interests Of Louis
lana. There happens to be, however, another
consideration "a far more powerful
one, too, than the whole Southwest
could bring to BEAR and that con-
stitutes our protection. The government
cannot afford to lose the revenue
now derived from the imports Of low grade
sugars. An attempt to relieve the low grades
and to make up the needed quota by duties
on the higher grades, would result In stopping
the Importation OF the latter, and SO cutting
off tremendous revenue altogether. And 1t
Is In this fact, and this alone, that our safety
lies. The question Is not how much protec-
ton the Congress will extend to q Louisiana
interest, but how much of the revenue from
low sugars the government can afford to fore
90 In order to accommodate the refners.
Any other view Of the matter Is fatuoue

A THREAT,

In another column we print this morning a
manifesto from the United LaboriDg Assoc
Citations OF this city, ITO all whom II may
eoncern,a which is very emphatic warning
to the Chinese laborers In California that,
them by Our Cotton Exchange and ghamber
Of Comheroe, they will meet with very
hostile reception. The manifesto, after de-
elarlng that the association will use all hon
orable means In Its power to prevent the
introduction OF Chinese labor Into Louisiana,
proceeds to make this very distinct and un-
mlstakable threat:
therefore we call upon all laborlng Glasses
TO organlns forthwith and prepare themselves
for any emergency that may arise hereafter"
Il this means anything 1t ls threat To COM
init violence upon the persons Of the Chinese
should they conclude to come to this city.
Tho United Laboring Associations may ~
well understand once for all that this ls a
community OF law and order, and that the
authority are fully able to cope
with any difficulties that may arise. The
Chinese are not, In our estimation. q valuable
acquisition 10 our population, we think that
there are many reasons why they should not
be induced to come here, and believe that
with y little exsrtlon much more desirable
class Of laborers could be secured to develop
the agricultural resources ef our State. but,
ut the same time, should the Chinese come
they will BIO protected In their lives
and liberties against assault from any and
all quarters. The dlsgraceful scenes enacted
ID Han Francisco will not be tolerated here for
q moment, and we now give such sootallstic
aud chronic agtators as are among
lis fair warning that they will not BIS per-
mltted to use violence toward any class OF
people Whatever. They must eonflne their
opposition to strictly legal methods, or else
they will array against themselves the law.
They should disabuae their minds at once OF
any idea they may entertain that they would
be permitted 10 take the Inv into their own
hands, for 1t ls n most dangerous fallaey.
The authorities are prepared to execute the
laws throughout the limits of the State, and
they Will not permit them to DO violated by
any man or association I'll men.
