CONFLICT OF SECTIONAL IN
TERESTS.

The New Orleans City Item says:
Louisiana has three great staple in.
dustries-cotton. sugar and rice.
The Republican tariff bill strikes at
oil three. Not content with re-.
moving most Of the protection on
sugar and rice. The Senate bill
makes An increase Of 100 per cent.
in the duty on cotton tea
Senators Allison. OF Iowa. and
Aldrich. Of Rhode Island. in sup-
porting the bin. pretended that the
increase Of the tax on cotton ties ID

lacy time and again. and hardly OK

an intelligent body % the Senate Of
the United States. Senators Nor
gan Of Alabama and George Of Mis-
sissippi thoroughly szpossd the
sophistry Of the two Northern Sem
stors. and showed that the money
paid BY planters for ties and bag
giug sis oil thrown away, for they
are not even allowed to have the
discarded iron hoops and the bag.
ging stripped from the cotton balea'
Senator Morgan declared that the
tare on every bale Of cotton in Liv-
erpool is twentv-eight pounde. with
out reference the weight of the
bale. With cotton 1t ton cents this
would be . deduction Of 81 SO per
bale. whether It weighs 400 OF 500
pounda On . crop Of 1000. 600
bales. this would amount to nearly
$40. 600. 600.
II 10 true that there is no specific
deduction in this country for tare
on cotton. bat - Liverpool takes
more than two-thirds of the crop,
the net value Of . bale Of cotton in
that port establishes the market
pcioe in tho United States. The
weight Of the bagging aud ties is
consequently discounted in the
price paid here for cotton.

simplicity...to believe that they
would purchase begging end ties -
Cotton il produced principally By
small farmers, Of whom probably
so per cont are Negroes. It is
planted. cultivated and picked BY
hand labor. In . bill ostensibly to
the revenue. the Senate proposes to
increase the burden Of tax on this
crop. for the sole reason, apparent
y. that it is a Southern industry. i
