The NEGRO ana Free Sugar.

Chas. A. BoXborough, Il leading
negro Of Louisiana, makes the
point that Mckinley proposes to re-
duce the income of quarter Of a
million o negroes, who produce the
sugar Of this country by putting
sugar on the free list, and increase
the cost Of their living by increasing
the tax on everything the negro uses.
He claims that there is millions OF
capital invested in the production of
sugar, and that it is all made by
negro lab0rers who must suffer the
consequences Of the reduction in
price, and that sugar making is an
industry as much entitled to protC C.
on as the iron and coal of Pennsyl-
vlnia, the wool Gf Ohio, or the lum-
Der of Michigan. He thinks that
sugar is put on the free list to punish
the South, and that the negroes are
to be the real sufferers, and concludes
that all Of this tariff legislation IS
against the negro, and so it is
Everything that the southern negro
uses pays high tariff and every
thing he produces is reduced to the
lowest price with the markets Of the
world shut against him by the repub-
lican tarif wall All republican leg
isation has proven to be war for
negro extinction. The force bill,
