The Sugar Duty.

A long neglected interest of the
people is in a fair way to receive at
tention in the present Congress.
Measures have been taken thus early
in the session by western Members
of Congress to secure the much
needed reduction of the duty on
sugar. The people of this country
have been burdened annually with
an expense of about 500, 900, 900 in
the shape of duties on one of the
chief necessaries of every family in
the Union, that of sugar. A bill has
been prepared, which will be pre-
sented in Congress at an early day,
to reduce the duty to IS per cent. ad
valorem. 1t would be far better to
abolish the duty entirely. Repre-
sentative Caswell declared in Con-
gress last year eff the people of the
United States want cheap sugar, let
them have the entire sugar duty re-
moved" If the now proposed bill
should pass, it would bring the
amount of duty collected on sugar,
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1889-12-19

it is said, to 10 or IS millions. This
reduction would afford consider
able relief of tax that falls as heav-
lily on the poor as on the rich. This
reduction would afford considerable
relief, and if the sugar duty cannot
be entirely removed, the sugar con-
Stunning families, which include all
classes, will be benefited by this
change. 1t might be supposed that
national legislation, so rational as
the adjustment or reduction of the
sugar tax could be readily secured,
but such is not the fact. There has
for years been hesitancy in Con-
gress to interfere with the sugar du-
ty, for reasons which many people
cannot comprehend. Although the
question has been entered upon with
earnestness by active members, it is
predicted that many obstacles will be
interposed to prevent the accom-
plishment of what ought to be done.

IT IS claimed by Democratic edit

IT IS claimed by Democratic edit
ors that State Treasurer Harshaw
realizes $1oo day out of his office.
Making no account of Sundays, legal
holidays and the like, there remain
800 working" days, with total an
nual income of 100000. As the
salary of the office is $1,000, the re-
mainder, SIS, 1000, is the sum that
must be realized from interest on de-
posts. AS no one charges that
more than three per cent. is paid the
treasurer, it follows that an average
sum of over $1,000 mnst be kept
on deposit constantly at interest
paying banks, in order to bring him
in the handsome revenue that is
claimed. But this simple statement
of the case carries its own refutation,
for any one who has given the least
attention to the financial reports
from the state offices knows that
not half the sum named is available
in the way named. There is good
reason for advocating the policy of
having the interest on state funds
inure to the benefit of the state? to
accomplish this the state of course
must take the responsibility of safe
keeping which it now imposes upon
the treasurer. The present method
is one that has been in use under
Democratic as we'll as Republican adj
ministrations, and has no partisan
significance But Democratic papers
seem more anxious to give it a parti-
san character than to consider the
best interests of the state. Had the
latter been their real object, there
would have been no difficulty in en-
listing general interest in the subject
and in securing the aid of a large
part of the Republican press. As it
is, however, the loose, over-state-
ments that have been made, and the
manifest motive that prompts them,
has thrown discredit upon the whole
subject, and will make it much more
difficult to recall attention and &C
complish any change that would 9TH

Madison Haz1ng Cases.

A case of the old time practise of
hazing new students, on entering a
University or college occurred at
Madison a month ago. The Uni
versity students charged with being
engaged in this disreputable affair,
were brought before Judge Keyes,
and his jurisdiction in the matter
denied; the case was brought before
the Supreme Court, where the orig
inal proceeding of the court below
was pronounced legal This case Of
the students caused considerable
comment by the press of the state,
not in justification of such practices,
but in too many instances, apologize
ing for such indecent transactions.
The plea is, that hazing has been
practiced in some of the most
reputable New England colleges in
times gone by, therefore, should not
be so harshly judged here in the west.
This is a weak excuse. for we are
now, nearing the close of the 10Th
century, and these senseless customs
of the past, should have been aban-
doned many years ago. Like anoth-
er senseless custom, common half
century ago. known as charivari,

naded with discordant noises in the

.turbances became so common, it was
not until the law was vigorously
enforced, that the indecent practices

National Election Law

In accordance with the recon-
mendation of President Harrison in
favor Of a national law. to take
control of the election of members of
Congress, prominent members of the
House have expressed a purpose to
frame a bill having that end in view.
The benefit of the law is intended
for those states and districts, where
honest elections cannot be held, but
it must necessarily be general and
applicable to all the states, although
needed in only few. The wisdom of
the republicans in Congress, has been
taxed since the close of the war, how
to reach the outrage of denying the
right of suffrage to legal voters, and
among the methods proposed, this
now suggested seems most practic-
able. Some of our exchanges doubt

available, for the reason it will pro-
woke resistance, even to violence in
some portions of the south8 There
is danger of this from the law con-
templated, but is it not as we'll to
incur danger, as to have it under
stood that this government is too
weak, to protect the rights of its
citizens, and rectify national dis
honor, which has been allowed to
run near a quarter of century.

were suppressed. The practice of
hazing deserves a like effective
treatment. The only alternative of
the friends of the University at
Madison and the state generally, to
shield that institution from damage,
is to offer few excuses for the disor-
derby hazers. The Madison Journal
says some students have left the
University dissatisfied and will seek
admission elsewhere. Public senti-
ment seems understood in the state,
the University will not be cordially
supported, if it have not the will
and the power to enforce good
order.

Death of Gen. David Atwood.

The death of Hon. David Atwood
of Madison, editor and proprietor of
the Wisconsin State Journal, which
occurred on Wednesday of last week,
too late for mention in the paper
Our acquaintance with Gen. Atwood
in the early years of territorial and
state history, leads to adding few
words to the much that has been said
of him by the press Of the state. The
first time the writer of this saw Gen.
Atwood was in September 1913. He
came into the Office of the revisors
of the statutes, his coat off dressed
for work, and inquired if any job
printing was wanted? He indicated
himself man of industrious habits,
BY the force of which he rose to
distinction. 1t is from beginnings
like these, that large proportion of
the prominent public men in this
state and in the states generally,
have reached their present positions.
Gen. Atwood was naturally inclined
to public life, although by no means,
an oficious office seeker. He was
safe adviser in public affairs, a
ready talker. but not brilliant public
speaker He probably presided as
chairman and president of more
public meetings, than any man in
Wisconsin; he was good parlia-
mentarian, presided with dignity and
his rulings were usually correct.
AS an editor he was careful and
prudent in his utterances; a COM
mendable quality of his paper was,
that he refrained from low personal
tiles, and kept within the bounds of
propriety in heated discussions. He
took to newspaper publishing when
quite young. He held Offices at
different periods, military, national
state, and honorary. What must not
be forgotten to mention; his moral
character was irreproachable. With
his long flowing white beard, he was
taken for an older man, than he was;
had his life been prolonged four
days longer, his age would have been
"a years.
