The Cresset has dug a PIT and fallen
into 1T. Last week it was simple enough
To state that the tariff being taken
from sugar, has reduced the price of
sugar. We do not deny it; never did
always said the tariff was tax. What
we do say is this, and we hope the Ores
set will show us better If we are mis-
taken: The tariff of 2 cents q pound
has been taken from o low grade OF
sugar, and kept on all grades which
the people use. This sugar goes
through the hands Of refiners, and they
get nearly all the benefit. The refiners
now pay q cents for sugar which they
formerly bought at Al cents: they used
TO get 22i pounds of sugar 81, and now
they get 40 pounds for 81, or a reduc-
tiOn To the refners of nearly exactly 81
per cent. Before the removal of the
tax our merchants sold IA pounds fol
81, now they sell Is pounds for 81, or q
reduction of ii per cent. Where is the
80 per cent. reduction? Well, about
IL per cent. goes to the consumer, and
80 per cent. goes to increase the profit
of the reiner. 1t must be supposed
that the reiner made money before the
tariff was removed, and this SO per
cent. is.a clear gain to him, and a clear
robbery of the consumer. While the
Cresset is bordering the above, we ask
it to answer this: II removal OF the
tariff cheapens an article, why not re.
move the tariff from all the necessaries
of life2 Why was the tariff kept on
sugar until the country rebelled against
republican rule, and nearly destroyed
the party last fallY The Cresset has
touched on our strong point, and ex.
posed It's own weakness. We are load.
ed with hard questions which no pro-
lection robber can answer.

The City Narrowly Escapes a Serious
Conftagration.
CoLUsA, Sept. 27.-What came near be-
ing fatal fire for Colusa occurred yes
terday afternoon. The water supply had
been shut off on account of the mains
being torn up and new ones being put in.
consequently when the fire broke out
there was no water and no chance of get
ting any.
The origin of the fire could not be
learned, but it started in the back of the
building Immediately opposite and south
from the COiusa House. This whole
block is composed mostly of frame build
ings, and it was thought for time that
the whole block was doomed as the wind
was blowing southwest. The street is
also very narrow, and if the flames had
not been checked as they were, they
would no doubt have crossed to Rum
melsburg's store and this would have
doomed the business portion of the town.
The firemen and citizens came to the
rescue IN hurry, however, and know
ing that nothing could be expected from
the hose company on account of the
water supply being cut off, they went to
work with will. Buckets of water were
brought from all sides. Others got salt,
and before the building was entirely de-
stroyed they had literally smothered the
flames.
