taxes with the greatest incidental
advantage to taxpayer and to the
manufacturer. The Republicans pro-
pose to make reduction that would
inno wise relieye the burden of inci-

Another sugar refinery. the Bay
State, has been shut down by the
Sugar Trust, and its owners hand
aomoly paid not to work. But no
one pays the workmen not to work.

1t may be that antagonism or re-
pulsion, both at the North and at
The South, IL all wrong and unnatur-
al and merely q relic Of the injnr-
ious system Of slavery: but so long as

snicuous force, The North has 10
right to lay special blame upon the
South Tor manifcsting the same feelr
