| foreign competition, because the duties on
refined give them margin over the duties
on raw sugars of cent and half. With
that margin cut down, even as the Senate
bill proposes to do, the power to exact ex-
cessive prices win be very much curtailed.
1t is true that the change made in the
House bill by the Senate Committee was
one that ought not to have been made. The
duty of four-tenths of q cent on refined
sugars provided by the House bill was
ample protection for refners. The addition
of two-tenths was just so much more pro-
lection that was unnecessary and unde-
served. If the comments of our cotem-
poraries were Tor the purpose of inducing
the Senate to restore the House rate they
would be timely and cogent But when it is
urged that because the Senate reduction is
not great enough, therefore the present
duties which are six times as great as these
proposed, should be indefinitely continued.
the people resorting to that sort of logic lay
themselves open to the charge of rank un-
sincerity.
1t is a little puzzling to decide whether
SenaVor quay Amen0meut W tnc sugar
schedule proposed last week, was for the
purpose of giving some foundation for the
misrepresentation referred to, or to show
that the Sugar Trust is not satisfied with the
Senate bill. Either theory would be con-
sistent with q proposition to raise the duties
on refined sugar to a cent per pound; which
with the bounty Of two cents on raw sugar
would make the burden on sugar practically
as great as under the old duties. It would
be such a complete qualification of the
Republican policy on the sugar question as
could only be accounted for by prospective
contributions of the Sugar Trust to Senator
Quay's campaign fund.
It should be laid down as q principle
that nothing must interfere with the pub
lie duty of radical reduction in the tariff
schedule which places an excessive cost on
this article of universal consumption. The
reciprocity policy can be harmonized with
this course by an amendment like that pro.
posed by Sensor Pierce. But to leave the
sugar tariff at its present excessive figures
or to enact q new one like that proposed BY
Senator Quay would be distinct betrayal
of our public interests.

THE HOTTEST DAY,

The hottest day of the year. so far, was
experienced by Pittsburg Yesterday, the
fercest efforts of June's heated term having
been beaten two degrees by the thsrmomet-
rical record of yesterday. The mortality
caused by the heat does not appear to have
been very great, only two deaths being re-
ported which can be directly traced TO the
torrid weather. If the cooler breezes last
night are the prelude to more moderate
weather to-day, Pittsburg may felicitate
itself on having escaped rather easily; but
if many. more such days as yesterday are to
be undergone the life of the city workers
who cannot escape to the mountains or sea-
shore will be grievous burden.

MISREPRESENTATION ABOUT SUGAR.

The rather persistent Misrepresentation
which has governed the utteranees Of some
OF the Democratic press with regard to the
sugar duties. seems to have got hold of those
supporters Of the Blaine policy who are SO
inscrutably welded to it, that they are not
willing 10 accept the plan of reduction of
sugar duties with a suitable proviso for rec
iproeity. OF the same character with the
New York Worlds assertion that ''the bill
before the Senate does not provide for free
sugar Tor consumption" is the editorial as
ser;ion of the Chicago Tribune that the
Sugar Trust is suited by the present bill.
''and that the revenue surrendered by the
Government will go to it in large measure,
rather than to the consumer"
Both these newspapers ought to be better
informed than this. The present duties on
the great mass of sugar consumed by the
people Of the United States under the pres
ent las ranges from s to SJ<c; and as seven
eighths Of our sugar is imported, that duty
is added 70 the cot of the sugar. Now
when it is proposed to reduce the duty
to iour-teuths of q cent as in the House bill,
or TO four and siI-tenths as in the Senate
bill, it is something very much like disin-
genuousuess to oppose three-cent reduc-
tion on the ground that it does not give ab-
solutely free sugar. 1t does not take of all
the duties; but it takes them of more nearly
thsn any measure proposed in previous Con-
gresses, and viii cheaper sugar very nearly
to the whole amount Of the three-eent rsduo-
tion.
As to the Chicago 7ribune's theory that
the Sugar Trust will appropriate the whole
amount of the reduction, it, is plain that
with sugar refners in every part OF the
world ready to ship to this country, any at
tempt on the part of the Trust to hold up
prices above the 6-1o Of q cent margin af-
fOrded by the duty would De simply hand
ing over the market to foreign competition.
At present the refners arc able to disregard

THE WRATH OF ST. PAUL.

The woes of a city which attacks its
neighbor's census returns are now felt in the
seyerest degree by the people of ST. Paul.
The pernicious activity shown by Minneap-
oils in swelling IT'S census reports was ex-
posed by st. Paul with the result Of cutting
down the Minneapolis total some 5000.
But now come the Minneapolis people and
make representations to the Superintendent
of the Census, intimating that st. Paul has
been Initiating her own census returns;
and Mr.. Porter has committed the unpar-
donable sin, from the St. Paul point of
view, of paying some attention to.these
assertions.
1t is interesting to observe how sharper
than serpent's tooth 1t is, when you have
been pitching into another city's census to
have the charge turned in your own direc-
ton, as exerplifed by the horror and in
dignation of the st. Paul Pioneer Press.
The retort to this charge is that Minneapo-
lis is "Jezabel whose dallying and sin is
the jest or the scorn of the whole people. "
And the idea that st. Paul could tinker
with its census reports is protested against
as coupling the fair fame of that city with
that OF Minneapolis as female of very
shady reputation, which strict regard for
propriety forbids MS to more specifically
describe.
This sort Of beat is rather ridiculous. but
it is possible to regard it as more enterpris-
ing than the quiet stolidisy with which
Pittsburg accepts census total of 239, 900
when all the other statistics indicate q pop
ulation nearer 270, 200.

From the New York Star.J
John e. Edwards, of wilkesbarre, Pa, trav-
cling agent for an agricultural implement man
ufactory, whose business keeps him among the
farmers from February to November, says that
never in his experience has he seen the farmers
Of Pennsylvania so much worked up over DO
litical matters as they are this fall.
II have travelled among the farmers of the
State for good many years, and talked poll
tics In half the counties Of the State. but never
before, not even in Presidential years, have
seen as much interest taken in a campaign as
In the Delamater-Pattison fight. The average
Republican majority in Pennsylvania Is put at
about 10000. Really it is much less. This year
the Republicans may feel well satisfied If they
elect their man. don't base my calculations
on the disaffection or such men as Senator
Emery, Wharton Barker, Chris Magee and Con-
gresham Dalzell, nor yet upon the opposition
to Delamater of the anti-Standard Oil producers
and the miners. though both will be important
factors Of the fight against him, but upon the
ameo, cfSagfs aSa II, TS t%ee1g % going

people, are inclined TO throw off the Quay yoke
THE business is bad, very bad for Eastern
farmers not living close to big cities, where
they can turn their attention to market gar
dening. Eastern agriculturists cannot COM
pete with the Western men in raising either
cattle or grain, and mortgages are increasing
much faster than bank accounts in tWo-thjrds

He ID Boss of Three Other Dogs, and Il IL
Said That All Of Them Vote.
CoNEJos, August 3-Andreas Arehuleta
lives on Los Pinos creek some ~ miles west of
here. He owns $50 goats and dogs. and like
many other Mexicans he is lazy. His dogs are
of the mongrel type, but their education has
made them very valuable, and Andreas
would swear in mixed Castilian and En-
glish If anything serious occurred tO them.
Quedao, which means Lookout in Ameri-
can vernacular, is captain Of the dogs and
Quedao is also dog. He directs the other
three who act as his lieutenants. Every morn
ing Andreas turns his $50 goats loose from his
corral. and Quedao and his assistants drive
them to pasture. Should the grass prove too
short for them in one place, according to
with his helpers drives the goats thither. If
Quedao halts, $50 goats and three dogs halt
also, until he gives the command to move on.
While the herd is feeding, two dogs will re-
main to watch 1t while the other two will go
hunting for provisions for the quartet. Their
game be 1t q jackrabbit, cotton tail, or other
animal. is always brought in whole, and at
noontide the four four-legged goat heyders
have their own picnic. As the sun sinks in the
west behind the mountains the dogs gather the
goats and drive them back to the corral, and
they have done this work for Andreas day
after day without losing goat.
1t is alleged by Mexicans in that part of the
sunny San Luis Park that when election day
comes Andreas gives his dogs rest from their

A COMMON ERROR.

In an article on the cost of the labor in o
ton Of pig iron, the esteemed Baltimore Sun
bases free trade argument on an error
which is very common but none the less
vital. The argument of our cotemporary
may be summarized as follows: Labor statis-
tics show that the labor cost of ton of pig
iron made with coke ranges from AZ cents to
50 so and averages about 81 40. Conse-
quently the duty of s6 72 on pig iron is
three or iour times what is necessary to pay
the difference between the cost of labor in
this country and in Europe.
That would be legitimate conclusion if
the labor statistics cited covered all the labor
necessary to produce a ton Of pig metal.
But the fact is that it covers only a small
portion Of the labor. The statistics only
profess to give the cost of labor, at the blast
furnaces, necessary to convert the ore, coke
and limestone into pig metal. But the ore,
coke and limestone each represents large
amount of labor. The only items in igur-
ing up the cost of the finished product, that
are wholly free from labor cost, are the royal
ties, if any are paid, on the raw materials
Every process in addition thereto repre-
sents labor. How this labor cost extends
may be seen from the fact that the trans
portation charges on ton of metal at Pitts
burg amount to several dollars per ton.
Of these charges perhaps 60 per cent rep
resent the wages paid in transportation;
but the vessels and railways by which the
transportation is performed also represent
labor cost which must be reimbursed out of
the remaining charges.
To follow out and fix the cost of the labor
in everything that unites to produce a ton
of pig iron. or any other finished product,
is task which no one has ever performed.
But q very slight acquaintance with the
subject will tell any one that the total labor
cost OF any product is far in excess of the
labor cost that pertains only to the last pro-
cess. Whatever may be the case with
other products the cost of labor in ton OF
pig iron is largely in excess of the duty.
