Free Sugar.

The fa 1t that the removal of the
tariff tax on sugar gives US from this
week forward for time at least, re-
duced price on an article entering into
universal consumption calls for some
reflections. A reduction of two and a
half cents a pound on sugar is a good
thing for the people and although ac-
cording to the old adage sit is not
right to look gilt horse in the mouth, )"
we question the policy of the change.
The sugar tariff was a purely revenue
tariff and it amounted to $50, 100000 a
year, every dollar of which went or
ought to have gone into the national
treasury.
BY removing this tax that much in
come has been taken from the govern
ment and that at the time lowing to
prof1igate expenditures for pensions
and other expenditures the country
needs it all. Removing this tax was
for the purpose of keeping up the tar
if on other necessaries of life under
the Mckinley Bill, and so in the long
run the people have to pay out for
clothing, farming utensils and house
hold goods the amount taken off them
by removing the sugar tax.
Another thing. The people do not
buy the sugar that is admitted free of
duty. The crude sugar imported from
Cuba is not fit for table use, until it
goes through the refinerics in New
York, Chicago and other large cities
and is then peddled out to the people.
AS the refineries, get the raw sugar
free Of duty, they can well afford to
put it to the people at lower price.
1t does not require a man with two
eyes to see that the whole business
was in the interest and for the benefit
of the refineries one of the richest and
most INSCRIPTIONS cf the trusts which
have both the government and the
people by the throat.
Another thing. In order to disarm
the opposition of the sugar growers of
the South to putting sugar on the free
list, the Mckinley Congress gives
them bounty of two cents a pound
on all the sugar they make. This is
an demonstrations provision, dis
eliminating in favor of a particular
industry, but all the same will take
$50, 600, 900 from the national treasury.
So that losing about $50, 900, 900 from
sugar duties and paying S20,OOo,OO0 to
pre- ducers the revenue is cut off to the
extent of SS0,O0O,OOO, and we repeat,
this amount has to come out of the
people in the increased taxes on the
necessaries of life under the Mckinley
Bill. So it may be concluded that
free sugar is one of the apparent Re-
publican blinds to make party repu-
tation. 1t is a h"mbug. Meantime
the combination between Claus
Spreckels of the Pacific and the refin-
cries on the Atlantic coast will ere
long bring sugar back to the old price.

The Fredericktown argus thinks
the REGISTER is given to "abuse,"
because we criticise the votes of Sena-
tor Newberry upon the Various bills
sought to be enacted in behalf of pa
tient and long suffering people. If.
last summer, when Mr.. Newberry,
was canvas sing this district for the
nomination, he had declared himself
against effective railroad and express
legislation, he would not have carried
a single county. Does the argus b.
lieve he would have even captured his
own county of Madison? We do not.
His votes upon these questions were a
disappointing to all his constituents
except the big lumber men and the
railroads. Mabrey's express bill, if
submitted to a vote of the people,
would receive almost unanimous en-
dorsement from Democrats and Re-
publicans alike; as would the f1eight
bill, and the Hitler bill. No, no! we
do not "abuse' Senator New berry,
but we tell him plainly that his con-
stitutents are dissatisfied with him,
for good cause.

The late Legislature held the power
to make Missouri's Democratic major
ity mount up to $4,000 next year. How
that power was utilized is known, and
we fear the result won't be so crafty
ing as honest, earnest Democrats de-
sire A good deal depends upon the
extra session to be called next winter.
If the Governor will include within his
call, freight and express legislation,
and give the members another chance
at the pluck system, all may yet
be well. In the meantime, wouldn't
it be a good plan to circulate petitions
praying him to lay these matters be-
fore the extra session?

THIRD PARTY POLITICS.

Written for Advocate by Ben Adh hems cousin
Ianohman. poor, but honest, may his
tribe increase
Had one night troubled dream of peace.
In politics he'd been, in New Mexico,
Befofe he struck Sierra's silver wilds;
Republican he, i'll whom there was no
guile.
nd at the polls, early there, and stayed
He worked his ticket, and always voted
straight.
With Sierra's rakes and fakes he made n
sorry mess.
They were too smart for George in primary
caucus.
They mugwumped and jugwumped, and left
him SO dry,
He slipped off to n ranch he had nigh,
His conscience at ease, he slept well and ate
hearty,
And dreampt how he best could serve the
grand old party.
One night he beheld in the moonlight of
his room,
Making it light like lilly in bloom.
Anangel writing in a book Of gold.
Political methods made q. W. bold.
And to the vision within his room he said,
"What writest thouy' the vision raised Its
head,
And with look both fat and hearty,
Replied. ''the names of those who love Their
party"
"And is mine one?" may, not So George
saw the list,
The names of rakes and fakes, but Ills was
missed.
He pondered then'spoke "you can finish up
the rest;'
"But write me down as one who loves his
country best"
The angel wrote and vanished.
The next night came again with great
awakening light,
And showed the names of those whom love
of country blessed,
And 10 G. w IS name led all the rest.
