j. NJ. Coulter, of Portland, had
IN exhibition his Surprise Steam
fruit dryer. This Is the cheapest
aud most durable fruit dryer that
has ever been presented to the pub
tic of this state. 1t is cheap be-
cause of its simplicity in construc-
tion and management. Any person
eau learn to use it by few moments
instruction, besides it comes within
reach of all in matter Of costs and
can be attended by any one without
danger as it cannot be exploded,
and there is absolutely no smoking
or burning the fruit and it dries
faster and better than any other
dryer now iu use. This process of
drying fruit with steam never
breaks the skin of prunes
and consequently retains all
the juice when being dried. 1t
can be used on the cook stove or
furnace just AS suits the convenience
Of the owner, and is made in sec
tions and can be taken apart when
ever desired. The water tank or
steamer and fruit tables are all
made of the best galvanized iron
aud will not rust or stain the fruit.
and they can be any size wanted
from family dryer to large business
dryer. Mr.. Coulter has this dryer
on exhibition at the state fair of 1889
and was awarded diploma. He had
the same at the 1880 exhibition
which has just closed and was
awarded the first premium rs being
ing the best dryer on exhibit by
committee of good substantial fruit
growers showing thereby the un-
questionable merits of the dryer.
The inventor deserves great credit
for his perseverance in constructing
this much needed improvement In
fruit drying.

Make All Sugar Free.

Oregoniap: Sugar, from the tol
of the refined to the bottom of th'
raw schedule, ought to go on th'
free list. Every duty on sugar
Of whatever quality and grade, Is
needless tax upon the consumer
and an uncalled for donation to O
monopoly. Sugar is the food product
Of largest and most universal con
sumption In the United States, aftel
meats and breadstufis. Our con
sumption In 1889 amounted to ov.
er three billions of pounds, of which
nearly two aud three-quarter bill.
ions were imported. The actual tax
on this sugar, paid at the custom
house, was ne arly $55, 100000 This
went to the United States and was
paid by the refiners' trust. The in
direct tax paid In the form of high
er prices on account of duty to the
sugar trust ammounted to 1000,
600, 3 cents per pound being the av-
erage duty on refiled sugar. This
was paid by all the people of the
United States to the sugar trust,
whose profit, after paying $55 600,
900 duty to the government, was $50,
OOO,0OO.
To what end is this enormous and
all.pervading tax on consumption?
To protect the sugar planting indus
try in Louisiana? LouisiaDa's pro-
duction In 1889 was less than $40,
000.O00 pounds, worth perhaps $40,
100000. Is it to nourish this pitiful
industry that the people of the
United States pay 800, $780, 900 to the
sugar trust? If 1t is, the game Is not
worth the candle. The Louisiana
sugar planting industry is not only
insignificant ut present, but it's in
capable of expansion. Its physical
limitations are invinciblc. Sugar
cane can only be grown in few
par shes in Louisiana, and even
there the industry can never COM
pete with the more favored soil and
climate of Cuba. The Louisiana
sngar planting Industry is not worth
protection.
If it is not woi tn while to pay this
enormous tax for the benefit of the
sugar planting interest, is it worth
while to pay ii for the benefit of the
sugar refining industry? The senate
seems to think il is, for, while con-
sentiug to the house repeal of the
duty on raw sugar with two cent
per pound bounty compensation, it
insists upon retaluing duty of six
tenths of a cent per pound on refined
sugar. This would amount to IL tax
on the consumption of 1889 SlS,00O,-
900 for the benefit of the sugar trust
or about half what IL now gets, after
paying the duty on raw sugar to the
government.
