THE BOUNTY ON suGAR.

To the Editor OF THE ADVOCATE.
Amongst the reforms proposed by the
alliance, / have looked in vain for a pro-
position TO repeal the state bounty law
on sugar which surely after the bounty
allowed by the Mckinley bill to pro-
ducers Is superfluous.
Further | believe that the production
Of sugar In this country Is given great
deal more Importance than il merits.
Being in Europe in 1886 at the time Of
the sugar crisis, / took special pains TO
find out something about the increase,
profits etc, Of the sugar production, and
| learned that the principal cause the
increase In the production Of that artl-
Gle was the sharp competition Of Amerl-
can wheat and other farm products.
The large land owners could not raise
anything more with profit and the great
increase Of the sugar production was
consequence Of that, not because OF the
raising OF sugar beets Of itself Is moro
profitable than cereals, but because sugar
manufactures could be built GO per cent
cheaper than in America, while the capi-
tai required to build them, also working
capital, could be had at very low interest,
excluding TO "a certain extent competition
as long as that condition Of capital in this
country exists.
A consequence Of the great extension
OF the sugar industries ,s however that II
causes us TO have a market for our sur
plus wheat and other farm products.
The bounty now allowed by the Nc
KInley bill is not only an equivalent for
higher capital but Is actually paying TO
the capitalist stockholders Of manuiac-
tories all that il cost TO produce the sugar
Manufactures that cost $50OOO0 are
going 60 be built according to Secretary
Mohler at Sioux City, Iowa, Grand Island,
Nebraska, California, and other places
which will produce from eight TO ten
million pounds Of sugar per year The
government will also have to pay an In
stitutlon Of this kind from 9l5O,OOO to
100000 yearly.
The question now arises what is better
for the people to have a market for our
surplus wheat and other farm products
in exchange for cheap sugar produced by
cheap capital, than to be taxed for the
millionaire stockholders Of manufactures
Of sugar in this country for all that 1t
cost to produce 1t and at the same time
lower or wipe out our market for Ameri-
can cereals and farm products. B.

arranged mean nothing, and alignment
would be made anew. Administration
and opposition would express the parties.
and no administration would stand or
fall because II was labeled "Republlcan"
or Democrat" but because Of the policy
II proposed or advocated. Dead issues
weuld be buried, or parties would have
10 adopt live ones or be buried too.
Now following the English plan,
wherein the crown Is more Of a figure
head than q real executive, Mr. Harrison
would have commissioned Mr.. Blaine TO
form a ministry. He selects the same
men who have been chosen. They would
have entered upon the discharge OF their
duties. Each minister would have had
the selection Of such assistants or politi
cal force Of his particular department,
while the clerical or administrative force,
constituting very large majority Of all,
would be secure from removal for any
but business reasons, such as inCompe-
tency or lnefflciency. This would take a
very large proportion Of the civil service
out OF a condition Of political depend
ence, and wholly remove from the noml-
nal head of the admlnisha the Presl-
dent, the patronage that is the standing
menace Of liberty, and the spring OF that
Eeeking corruption that has poisoned our
political life and furnished the Doodle
with which TO buy the vote Of states.
Having got under way the ministers
would have done as they have. Window
would have asked that 2 per cent. bonds
for banking basis might issue. Blaine
and Window would have asked that the
bill pass. Wanamaker would
have asked for postal telegraph. No
ble would have asked for "force BILL"
Things would have gone on as they have
until the election and until the assem-
bling Of Congress-. Then comes the min
listers with their recommendations, and
their supporters with bills looking to the
carrying out Of their views. First comes
WINDOWS bond hill. II rejected in the
Senate, the house Of its friends, but that
cuts no figure. II is also introduced into
the House and voted down decislvely.
That means something. The representa-
lives Of the people have no confidence in
the administration Of the treasury. A
cabinet meeting ls called TO see whether
the administration stands with Window
and all go together or let him go alone.
Wall street ls counseled as usual and
says don't stir up the opposition too
much. Let Window go alone; and then
the prime minister, supposed to be Mr..
Blaine, looks up another man who he
thinks will keep near enough to the
views Of the House TO weather the storm.
Then some member Of the opposition,
by what has been gained,
modification Of some Of the
worst features Of the tariff bill just
passed, and Is reinforced by such Repub-
lican members as reluctantly voted with
their party before they heard from the
people at the polls. OF course the ad-
comes to It's rescue, but the
vote ls against 1t, and as this is the ques
ton on which the party went into power.
and can not be shifted onto any particu-
lar department, It's retention becomes at
once government measure, and lts mOdl-
fcation Is the defeat Of the sdmlnistra-

into the hands OF the executive OF the
national government. An extension Of
the civil service and a tightening up OF
the rules might better the worst features
Of the "spoils oyBtem," but the real rem
edy for that most reprehensible and do
morhllzing System will be found In the
details Of that most excellent arrange
ment Of the British government, by
which the political part Of the executive
changes with every change Of popular
feeling, while the clerical or real execu-
tive goes on forever This brings US TO
a detailed consideration OF Mr.. Gould's
first point
That our government lacks feXibility,
none will deny. The people may express
dlsapproval Of the current political pol
Icy, and fourteen months must elapse be-
fore a change even in the legislative de-
partment can be inaugurated, and then
the executive, intrenChed behind a con-
stltutlonal tenure, may bid defiance for
a longer time to the most emphatic dis
sent the people may be able to formu-
late. Nothing can be palmer than the
dissatisfaction Of the country with the
silver and tariff policy Of the present adj
mlnlstration, and no protest could be
louder than the last election, yet no
change comes over those administrators
OF government, who have been 30 com.
pletely buried under their constituents
dIsapprobatlon. The tariff Is not mOdi-
aed, the outrageous force bill Is not
abandoned, nor is financial management
taken out Of the control Of the gold-bugs.
On the contrary, they are counting the
days in which they may still continue to
thwart the will Of the people. A consti-
tutlonal change by which the new Con-
gress would meet on January 1, after the
November election, would make possible
a speedy response to the voice Of the
people.
But Mr.. Gould Speaks Of the lack Of
Congressional hexibilIty. In this he
makes a slight error, The inHexlbility
Of which we justly complain Is Of the ex-
ecutlve, aud Is the result Of a four years
term, instead Of an indefinite ono, ter
mlnable at the option Of the people.
Whenever the policy Of the government,
as shown by the message and reoommen-
datlons Of the chief magistrate, and OF
his ministers (cabinet), does not meet
with the approval Of the House Of Rep
resentatlves, a vote of want of confidence
would be sufficient to notify the head Of
the government that new policy and
new men TO carry Il out would be in or.
der.
Now 70 bring before the readers an
illustration OF the plan, let us suppose
that It we're now just going into effect,
10 is extremely doubtful II the tariff or
silver deluslon bill could have been
passed had the administration been lla
BILE TO be compelled to "back water" as
soon as the new Congress convened, but
II they had been, the result Of the cleo
tion would have strengthened the oppo-
sltlon and weakened the caucus bonds to
such an extent that the Republicans who

Her Parents Objected,

DEMERsv1L1E, July O.-[Special A rip
pie of excitement was caused yesterday
morning when it was found that Miss Hat
tie Hicks had eloped with Osc#r Enge. 1t
appears that Mr.. Engel had been paying at
tentions to Miss Hicks for some time, but
her parents objected to the match on ac-
count of the extreme youthfulness of their
daughter, who is said to be only 15 years of
age. The couple first started for Tobacco
Plains Sunday night on horseback, intend
ing TO cross the line into Canada. But for
some reason they changed their minds and
returned to Demersville and took the
steamer State of Montana for Ravalli, with
tho intention of going to Idaho. The State
of Montana left for the foot of the lake at
five a. m.. and as soon as the parents found
that their daughter had gone with Engel
Mr.. Hicks chartered steam pleasure yacht
and started in hot pursuit. The State of
Montana Was hailed in mid-iake by the pur-
suing party. and from her it was learned
that Miss Hicks and Mr.. Engel had de-
parted by stage for Ravalii. Mr. Engel has
been employed by the Missoula Mercantile
company and bears an excellent reputation,
and 1t is hoped the matter will be smicably
adjusted,

William Barnes Drowned in the
Yellowstone Through His Own
Palpable Fault
He Caught Hold of Overhanging
Willows and the Boat
Floated Away
Before Assistance Could Arrive His Hold
Relaxed and He Dropped Down
Into the Stream.

LIvTNGsTor July 30.-tSpecial. Will
linn Barnes was drowned in tho Yellow
stone river to-day, a short distance below
the wagon bridge, at the foot of Main
street. Barnes, in company with seven
other men, from Tacoma. Seattle and points
west, had boat constructed by Gordon
Bros, for the purpose of floating down the
Yellowstone and Missouri rivers to tho
wheat fields of Dakota, where they cx-
pected to find work. Everything being
ready for start to-day, the men entered
the boat, Barnes sitting in the stern in
order to steer. After going short
distance the boat passed under
nm ovelhanging willow. The Others
dncked and avoided being brushed out, but
Barnes sat bolt upright and clutcbing the
willow with both hands. The hoat passed
on and left him suspended from the willow.
Tho boat was rowed back, but just before it
reached him he let go his hold and disap-
peared under the water. He arose to the
surface once and again disappeared, and
was seen no more. An effort is being made
to recover the body, but it is not thought
that it will be found. The other occupants
of the boat have passed on down the yell
lowstone. Barnes was from Montreal, Can
ada.
