Knocking for Admission.

Four Territories are demanding admission
into the slsterhood of States. They are
Montana, Washington, Dakota and Utah
There is pretty fair prospect that all of
them win be admitted by this Congress,
but not until after the Presidential election.
Congress will have other things to occupy
its time before the summer recess that are
more pressing than the admission of new
States.
1t is not probable that there will be much,
if any, opposition to the admission of Mon
tana and Washington. Each has the
requisite number of inhabitants
and no disturbing issues block
their way. 1t is different with respect to
Dakota and Utah. 1t is proposed to make
two States out of Dakota. An election on
the question of dividing the Territory by
an east and west line was held last fall, and
resulted in a large majority for division
Two admission bills have been presented in
the Senate, one to admit South Dakota and
the other North Dakota The former has
10000 inhabitants and the latter 200, 600
Dakota is certainly large enough to be
divided. 1t has more territory than any State
III lne Union except leAdS anu NdlllOIHld
1t Is hardly probable, however, that the
House will consent to a division of it. In
fact ii bill is pending in the House to admit
as one State. If this bill becomes a law
a few would-be Senators, Congressman and
Governors will be disappointed.
Utah, to be admitted, will have to over
come a good deal Of opposition. There are
| grave doubts of the sincerity of the Nor
mons WHO have pledged themselves to aban-
don polygamy Congress will want to be
satisfied that polygamy will never again be
come a disturbing issue before it grants
Utah'S petition. 1t is true Utah has adopted
an anti-polygamy constitution, but there is
nothing to prevent the amendment Of the
constitution when the Territory becomes a
! State. Doubtless some legislation will be
agreed to that will render the Mormons
poweresS to legalize polygamy before Utah
is admitted.

lion in this country was Slay's rebel
zion in Western Pennsylvania. 1t
came about on account of internal
taxes on whisky. Internal taxes have
ever been in disfavor IN the United
States. At the beginning of our wal
many internal taxes were laid not in
existence at its inception, among 9th
ers, government taxes were laid on
whisky and tobacco. The republican
party in three congressional sessions
reduced these internal war taxes over
100000 per anntsn. At the
present time the internal taxes on to-
bacco and whisky remain. These tax
es are directly from the people, and
are direct burdens on the people. One
half of ali the alcohol used in this
country is used in the arts, sciences,
and manufactures. The revenue de-
rived from tobacco alone is over $50,
O0O, 900 per annum. The tariff on
importations except upon those things
we cannot produce or manufacture
here is not tax on the people for
the reason that home competition in
production and manufacture keeps the
price within proper limits, and in
many cases home competition has
actually reduced the price below what
it was before the duty was placed.
The republican party proposes to
abolish the internal tax on tobacco,
thus relieving the people at once of
$50, 100000 of tax taken from them
directly; it proposes to abolish the in
ternal tax on alcohol used in the fine
arts. medicines and manufactures thus
relieving the people of this direct tax;
it proposes to put on the free list all
those articles which cannot he produc-
ed or manufactured in this country,
and it proposes to protect our agricul-
tural population in their home mar
ket and productions directly and by
the protection of our immense manu-
featuring population against the pau
per labor of other countries. Let
Americans legislate for the benefit of
Americans, is the motto of the repub-
lican party.

THE SUGAR TAN.

An advance of cest per pound on
the price of sugar consumed in the
United States means an increase of
over $50, 600, 900 per yearin the money
paid out for sugar by its consumers
in this country.
The trust which controls the sugar
business has capital Of $50, OOO. 900.
The principal stockholders of the trust
are the Havemyers of New York, who
therefore receive the largest proper
ton of its gains.
One of the Havemyers contributed
s25, 900 to the democratic campaign
fund of 1884. 1t is freely charged
that his influence with the admins
tration and his promise of contribut-
ing a largely increased sum to the
campaign fund of this year, had q
great deal to do with the defeat of
the amendment offered to the Mills
bill in the house, which would have
saved consumers about $28, 600. 900.
1t is stated that the senate commit
tee will reduce this tax fully as much
as this, which will be cutting it in two.
The total tax ON the article is $751;
100000.
It would be better for the sugar in
dustTy in Kansas, for the present at
least, If this tax could be retained, but
the government can afford il adequate
peoeection in some other way, If it

We are still convinced that Mr..
Carpenters was the best speech made
ut the Democratic congressional con-
vention. However, neither his speech
nor any of the others, not excepting
Judge Martins, differed from the
usual democratic harangue. Assertion
is not argument, and unproven asser-
ton makes up good democratic
speech. A close examination of the
speeches reported in the Democrat of
last week will bear us out in stating
that in none is there any argument of
any kind, and there is much false
hood.

THE SUGAR TAX.

Last gear sugar to the value of
$6S, 897, 1927 was imported upon
which 500, 515, 6O1.67 was collected
by the government as duties. Be
cause 50 little sugar is raised in this
country the duty is nearly all added
to the cost of the article. Therefore
any reduction of duty on this article
of prime necessity would be a reduc-
ton to that extent in the price of raw
sugars The first purpose of the
makers of the Mills bill was to reduce
the duty % per cent, but Mr.. Have
meyer, the democratic president of
the sugar refiners' trust saw the COM
mittee and a new schedule was made
to suit close corporation which has
advanced the price of sugar at least
10 per cent since December, by which
a reduction of S1l 100000 in duties
would be effected, leaving the al va
loren duty on sugar GS per cent The
bill which the republicans of the
senate committee is preparing will, it
is said, cut the duty one-half, reduc-
ins it to $2S, 100000, or leaving it at
II per cent instead of 81, as it now
stands.
But for the fact that an effort is
being made to utilize sorghum, with
the purpose of creating great sugar
industry which will ultimately supply
the needs of our people, the repubii-
cans would make a greater cut in the
duty if they could.

: The republicans who worked the reb-
e, debt racket in 1884 without success
now turn to the free trade racket. a
thing just as senseless and untrue.
The theory upon which the free trade
racket is based is simply that Ameri-
can woTkingmen are fools capable of
believing every kind of political false
hood and claptrap, but there are al
ready signs that 1T Hill not work this

The rebels who worked the rebel
racket in 1850 are nov working the
tariff racket in the interest of the
English who aided and sbetted their
efforts to overthrow this government
from 1860 to 1865. The solid south
is the backbone and sinew of democ-
racy.

Here is an opinion on the protective
system of this country from a man
whose words are generally listened to
with respectable attention. Prince
Bismark, in recent speech, said
s'The success of the United States in
material development is the most
illustrious of modern time. The
American nation has not only success
fully borne and suppressed the most
gigantic and expensive war of all
history, but Immediately afterwartl
disbanded its army, found work for
its soldiers and marines, paid off most
of its debt, given labor and homes to
all the unemployed Of Europe as fast
as they could arrive within the terri
tory, and still by system of taxation
so indirect as not to be perceived,
much less felt. Because it is my
deliberate judgement that the pros
perity of America is mainly due to its
system of protective laws, I urge that
Germany has now reached that point
where it is necessary to initiate the
tariff system of the United States"

Among the attractions of this city
which seem to possess all the legal
qualities of fixtures except the one of
usefulness, is the gang of amateur
toughs who station themselves at the
Opera House entrance every time there
is an entertainment, and by their
coarse remarks, lewd conversation and
ungentlemanly conduct, render the
attendance of ladies and gentlemen a
thing of positive dread and annoyance.
Perhaps the corporation does not pos.
sess sufficient police authority to COM
mand Its officers to clear the walks of
these young nuisances, but if that
power does exist it should certainly be
evoked.
