The Salt and Sugar Trusts.

It is announced that the Sugar
Trust is about to advance prices
further, and that the construction
Of the Salt Trust is about complete,
so that the price Of salt can also be
advanced. The existence Of these
trusts l. evidence, if evidence were
needed, that the tariff in no sense
nor degree promotes the formation
Of trusts. Both trusts are inter
national, having branches in both
England and the United States. A
leading man in the Salt Trrst said
10 newspaper interviewer, that

combine" would be held in this
Countrywide balance in England.
The same man said he "did not care
how soon Congress abolished the
duty on salt. This answers every
argument of the free-traders.
The facts as to the Sugar Trust are
similar. Sugar has been advanced
in Great Britain about 100 per cent.
| and is going higher. II scarcity

raw sugar, American manufacturer,
could underselI English dealers in
refined sugar. Yet the scarcity Of
raw sugar is not the only cause OF
! high prices. The trust is "corner
ing" the sugar supply of the world
and has consumers absolutely at its
mercy, as much so as the anthracite
coal "ring."
Ii is also to be remarked that The
Salt Trust aud the sugar Trust are
both Democratic institutions. Well

dldate for Governor of Michigan in
1855, is the head center Of the
American section Of the Salt Trust
