The Sugar Trust.

Tho sugar trust is a combination TO
enhance prices that come home to the
business and bosoms of men. II has
raised tho'prices OF every grade OF
sugar--that of refined sugar as much
as four cents a pound. The business
Of refining sugar was reasonably prof
table before the combination, but by
arbitrarily raising prices the sugar
people were able to divide a profit Of
$10,O0O,OOO in 1883, and ssfor Eve
mouths Of the present year $ll,64O.-
600. The sugar trusts profits arc now
estimated at $3,2OOOOO a month.
Their combination in restraint Of
trade has enabled them to lay a heav-
y tax on every consumer Of sugar,
from which the members of the trust'
will soon become enormously wealthy

Educate a free people and il is inn

body Of people Of Europe had been
educated two hundred years ago their

has produced the widespread discon-
tent among her people. Enlighten-
ment of the human mind causes it TO
