80 per cent. ad yalorem.
t2I per cent, nd yalOTem.

In March, 1875, 25 per cent nd Valorem was
added TO these figures and in August, 1888,
this % per cent. nd valOrem was taken of,
leaving the duty as It was fixed In 1870.
Thus II will be seen that from the first
meeting OF Congress until the beginning OF
the rebellion there was heavy import duty
on sugar, except during thirteen years; that
after the acquisition Of Louisiana, our only
sugar producing country, that this duty
was largely increased, and that in 1860 out
Of 4l5,0O0 tons of sugar consumed, 10000
tons, or 80 per cent, was made In this coun-
try,
Louisiana produced nearly all OF this
sugar, small quantity being made in
Texas and Florida. The war Of the rebel
lion totally destroyed sugar production, 30
that, in 1866, the year of its close, only
$500 tons were produced out Of 39l, 900
tons consumed.
But the heavy duties levied in 1859,
solely to produce revenue, because there
was not pound Of sugar raised in tue loyal
states, stimulated the production In Louisi-
ana, so that In four years 1t was nearly SO,-
600 tons instead Of $500.
In 1870, Louisiana having again taken its
place in Congress, the rate of duties were
charged somewhat to afford 1t still greater
protection, and in 1875, when Congress De-
came Democratic, 25 per cent. was added to
the already nigh rate Of duty for the pur-
pose Of helping the Louisiana sugar

An Autonomous Administration.

In speaking Of the land Of Malietoa, tho
President informs Congress that "with a
change in the representation Of all three
powers-Germany, Great Britain, and the
United States-and harmonious under
standing between them, the peace, prosper
ity, autonomous administration, and neu-
trality Of Samoa can hardly fail to be Sc
cured"
This lie pleasant dream superinduced by
a conservative slumber The truth is,
Samoa one Of these days will be merged
into the German colonial possessions 80
suddenly and eirectually that It will stay
there in spite Of the growl Of the lion and
the screech of the eagle. The first and most
important steps have already been taken to
secure this result. The Hamburg mer-
chants have placed their commercial yoke
upon the trade of the island, and have for
years virtually controlled the local govern
ment. This commercial influence, sus-
tained by the almost constant presence Of
German war vessels, is gradually working
out the deep-lad plans which characterize
Bismarck's colonial aggressions, aud an
nexation is coming just as sure rs the
CGmerun incident came.
The American people will awake some
morning to find that the autonomous adj
ministration Of Samoa which the President
so modestly hopes for is under the complete
control OF the Hamburg commercial and
Berlin political authorities.

SPEAKING Of the estimates of expendi.
lures for the next fiscal year the Albany
Journal notices that it is proposed to
spend $4,000, 900 on river and harbor i'm
provements, OF which over S7,500,000 is
devoted to the Mississippi river, and re-
marks:
The Mississippi river is the rival of the
water system of which the Erie canal is an
essential part There is the greatest injustice
in spending so large a sum for the benefit of
one system of water transportation while the
competing system is left to shit for itself,
Every patriotic man wishes to sec every part
of the country prosper, and there Is certainly
trade enough from the west to require both
the. Mississippi aud Eric canal routes TO the
seaboard. There should be at least an ap-
proach toward fairness in the treatment of
these two waterways by Congress.
One Of these highways is the work OF
nature and the property Of the nation, the
other is the work of man, and the property
OF a state. Perhaps, II the state of New
York would make a free gift of the canal
system to the nation, Congress might ac-
cept and care for 1t. The general govern
ment will not invest largely in property,
the title of which is vested in a state.

painters. Louisiana that year produced
one-eleventh Of the sugar consumed In the
country, and It does not produce quite
that amount now.
The effort made by the Republican party
TO stimulate the production Of cane sugar
by protective tariff has now lasted twenty
years. When IL began the country pro-
duced one-eleventh OF the sugar consumed,
and at the close OF the twenty years IL pro-
duces one-twelfth OF the amount consumed.
During that time the government has
collected one thousand million dollars from
the people upon one Of the necessares Of
life, and is to-day collecting one dollar a
year from every man, woman, and child In
the country TO aid the Louisiana sugar
planters.
For each pound Of sugar raised in Louis
lana during these twenty years the people
have paid. after paying for the sugar they
use, nearly trenty.ninc cents.
Averaging the population at 45,0O0,0OO,
each inhabitant has paid tigenty.t,Oo dgilars
tax on sugar to aid the Louisiana sugar
planters.
Is II not time to stop this foolishnossY
The people could better afford to take every
sugar planter in Louisiana and board him
and his family at the 81. Charles HOTEL in
New Orleans, during the winter aud at the
Grand Union, at Saratoga, in the summer
than to continue the present method Of
keeping them.
It is very desirable that the country
should produce food, clothing, aud arms
for home consumption, aud protective
tariff, because Of the country's great variety
Of climate and soil and its varied mineral
resources, will doubtless enable II do 30
with all articles not Of tropical growth.
But the experiment has failed so far as
] oane sugar is concerned, and IL is time to
call halt, as the government does not any
longer need the revenue derived from the
duties on sugar.
In disposing Of this subject Congress
should consider one fact, and that is this,
that the family Of the poor man who earns
his bread by the sweat OF his brow will In a
year consume as much sugar and molasses
as the family OF the same size of the mil
lionare who clips the coupons from govern
ment and railroad bonds or collects the
rent from thousand tepements,

Mr.. G. NJ. CADY, OF Atlanta, Ga, has an
interview in the Galveston NcivS, in which
he suggests novel and somewhat striking
idea on the subject Of river and harbor i'm
provements. Mr.. Cady proposes that in
all cases where the federal government is
called upon to furnish the money for i'm
proving rivers or harbors, the cities or
states to be Immediately benefited should
undertake to pay one,half the cost Of the
proposed undertaking. For example, sup
posing 1t would cost eight millions to se-
cure deep water In the harbor Of Galveston,
the state Of Texas and the city Of Galveston,
or both, should undertake to supply one
half Of the sum. Thus, 1t is suggested, the
federal treasury would be called upon TO
help only those who are willing to help
themselves; and, besides, there would, It is
believed, be much greater care and watch
fulness IN the expenditure of the money
with the people of the locality directly in
terested in its economical and effective ap
plication. The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN is
not prepared to say that this plan should
be adop'ed as q universal rule, but 1t is GER
tainly worthy Of respectful consideration.
