tobacco. The removal OF that tax

Coming TO the question ola
BOUNTY OS SUGAR,
he saii it would amount, on a hasis
Of tue present production, TO be-
tween seven and eight millions
year. This was the fist time In the
history Of the Country that il was
proposed TO pay n bounty TO domes-
tic produce, but no pant Of the
bounty, lie asserted, would be paid
20 the grower Of beet or sorghum
cane. Every dollar OF Il would go
20 the sugar manufactured. The
producer would not receive n higher
price for his produce, nor would the
consumer receive any benefit from
the bounty. for bouuiy-paid sugar
would seii in the MARKETS at the
same price precisely as duiy-paid re-
finei sugar coming from other
countries. The courts had invariably
held that no State legislature could
authorize a county or municipality
10 impose taxes for the purpose Of
kSoOURAGING MANUFACTURERS
or any other industry, II the Sen
ate could not do Il without unlim-
tied powers Of taxingl how, Carlisle
asked, could the general govern
ment do il?

sition to confide 10 the Judgment or
caurice Of the President also q de-

facts defined in the law, but Of tile
results aud effects OF those facts and
circumstances. The amendment
was not reciprocity. IL was reialia-

United States by imposing sduiy o.

accuracy. He differed from Car
Isle absolutely ~ 10 the effect %

Coming down 10 the sugar ques-
ton, he said he hal convcrsed With
the planters Of Louisiana who hrd
come TO Washington, and there VS.
not one Of thsm who did not say
that the propO Ell bounty would
stimulate immensely the production
OF sugar in Louisiana, and he
great loon 20 them. But nov the
senator from Louisiana lGihs0ni
charged the c0uferets with us
eliminating against that Industry.
even II il were true that all the
Louisiana sugar planters desired the
bounty. and Denounced II and he
clarei that Il was unconstitutional

would take them at their wOrd. He
believed the bill vas, on the whole,
