sentatives in Congress from Ohio
were pulling every string to get
through the bill for the return of
the direct tax fund and Gov. Fora
ker did everything in his power to
secure the money and pay off the
floating debt before an empty
treasury made cOncealment of the
deficit no longer possible. The bill
failed and the state was again COM
PEELED to go begging at every
county treasury door and bills that
should have been paid were held
back until after the fiscal year had
closed. In the end Foraker went
out of Office and his successor had
to face the deficit left by his adj
ministration.
Gov. Campbell proposes that the
money be applied to the use for
which it was designed by Gov. For
aEcr. II the Dill had passed the
fftieth congress the funds would
have been used in paying off the
borrowed money and deferred bills
aud Gov. Foraker would have
boasted in his missage to the legis-
lature that the state was in a sound
financial condition, having no
floating debt and with a handsome
surplus in the treasury. The boast
ing was done all the same, but
every person knew it was idle
swagger only. Gov. Campbell pro-
poses that the money be used to
pay off the debts bequeathed to
him by Gov. Foraker and that
seems to be the most sensible plan.
Certainly the Republican organs
ought not to object when they stood
ready to approve such disposition
of it by Gov. Foraker.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1891-04-11
Cheap Sugar.

From the amount of blow and
brag found in our Republican co.
temporaries one would be led to
suppose that the party of high tar
ifs had Suddenly been converted
and had become rampant free tra-
ders.
This, however, is not true, and
the incipient Mckinley boom is a
myth, without any real substance.
True, sngar has fallen in price,
and the high tariff organs triumph
antly point to this lonesome reduc-
ton as sample of NcKinley
prices.
These organs apparently forget
that low prices were denounced by
them, during campaign times, as Il
calamity to the people and men
ace to our national prosperity.
Now that the music has been
changed, we desire to ask these
gentlemen to answer: IF cheap
sugar is good thing, why is not
cheap clothing, cheap iron, cheap
tinware, cheap hardware and agri-
cultural implements?
If the drop in the price of sugar
gives cause of rejoicing on the
part of our people, why should it
be thought strange that they should
grieve at the, increase in price of
carpets?
The expression "Free Sugar" is
however misnomer, for the sugar
used by our people is not free.
1t is taxed one-half cent per
pound, which amount goes into the
Golfers of sugar trust.
The raw sugar which goes to the
retiners is free, but all sugar above
number 1G Dutch Standard, which
includes all grades in common use
is still subject to the tax.
we, as people, have been and
are using about 3,0O0,OOO,OOO pounds
year upon which, by the provis-
ions of the present law, the sugar
trust is enabled to levy a tribute of
$1J,O0O,O00.
The Mckinley law surrenders
about $55,O00,O00 from the revenues
of the Government to furnish free
sugar to the refineries, and in adj
dition to the above amount, there
will be $l0000,000 or more paid
in bounties to the domestic pro-
ducers, and for this loss of revenue
the duty is increased on every 9TH
er necessary of life, and they ask
us to believe that this increase of
duties tends to cheaper prices.
Our Republican friends should
give themselves a severe and hon
est self eXa mination and see if they
are really in favor of cheap sugar,
and If so, why they do not favor
cheap clothing, carpets and tin

Reciprocity with Canada and Coal.

Clevelad Plain Dealerl
One of the chief materials refer
red to in connection with reciprOc-
ity with Canada is that of coal.
New England particularly shows
what benefits would be derived
were the tariff removed and Nova
Scotia coal allowed free entrance
into her large centers. But one of
the leading mine managers in No
va Scotia, who has been talking on
the subject, does not favor any such
scheme. He says that his coal is
not of as high grade or quality as
Pennsylvania or Virginia coal, and
to come into free competition as
they would under reciprocity Nova
Scotia would be the loser. Under
high protection, he says, the out
put of the various mines in Nova
Scotia has increased from few
hundred thousand tons to over a
million.
This is all right for the mine
owners, but it is hard on the Cana
dian people, for the price of their
coal has been greatly increased
and the quality much reduced to
what was the case before their
high tariff went into effect. The
religion west of Montreal, if not
west of Quebec, would be far bet.
ter off if free coal could he had
from this side of the border. But
we ought to be willing to stand il
with unruffled equinimity if the
Canadians can. The question of
coal is serious one to large part
of Canada, for it must be either inn
ported or carried long distance
and pay high transportation rates
Canada has many commodities
that she could exchange with
much profit to herself and us il
| Ohio could ship coal over the line
| free of duty. But if Nova Scotia
coal mine owners, nearly half OF
whom live in either Boston or New
York, are to dictate the policy,
Canadians will continue to pay
will continue to pay fancy prices
for poor coal.

Mr.. MCKINLEY is being laughed
at because in his recent speech al
Worcester he took up a pressed
glass tumbler and declared that il
the go per cent. ad velorem duty
upon that kind of tumblers were
reduced to 10 per cent, the imports
of glass tumblers would increase
more than fourfold. Mr.. McKin-
ley was not aware that the pressed
glass tumbler he exhibited is made
in the United States cheaper than
anywhere else in the world.
1t is evident that some mischiev-
Gus manufacturer has been trifiing

CINCINNATI, though stronghold
of Republicanism, came within g
handful of votes of being captured
by the Democrats in the recent
Mayoralty election. Colone Tafel,
the Democratic candidate, was a
representative of the cause of per-
sonal liberty against Sabbatarian
bigotry; and yet he was defeated
by the votes of German Turner's,
who on every day of the year eX-
cept election day make profession
of their hostility to those whom
they call "Muckers." While de-
nouncing "Muckery," these Cincin-
natl Germans voted for it's candi-
date in Mayor Mosby. Cincinnati
is not the only city in which this
phenomenon in politics may be
witnessed.

The Direct Tax Money.

| Cleveland Plain Dealer.l
Gov. Campbell recommends that
the direct tax money refunded to
Ohio should be used in paying of
the floating debt of the state, so
far as it is needed for that purpose,
and thus place the state finances
once more in proper condition. In
support of that recommendation a
statement is made of the financial
situation, showing that there has
been for some years serious defic-
it and that the state has been able
to get along 50 far only by adj
vances from the counties, anticipa-
ting the revenues Of the state in q
manner that must inevitably soon
result in bankruptcy.
During the Foraker administra-
ton this state of things was re-
peatedly asserted by Democratic
officials and democratic news pa
pers as repeatedly denied by the
governorand his newspaper organs.
The figures were juggled with to
show that not only was there no
d felt but that there was an actu-
nj surplus in the treasury. At the
same time the Republican repre-

Tn. Deacon stripped IN Church.

BrRM1NoHAM, Conn.,, Feb. GA ripple of
merrimept in a local church OIL Sunday last
gradually developed into uncomfortable
laughter over the unusual behavior of two
worthy old deacons. One. after depositinp
his Bible in the little rack and carefully
tucking bis hat under the bench, prepared
to take part in the service which was under
way. He arose TO remove his oyercoat. and
both coats came off Mt once. Unconscious
of his appearance in his shirt sleeves, he nd.
iusted his spectncles and again prepared TO
take part in the service. The other good
old deacon whose hair has been no.
ticeabiy shorter and shorter for the last
seven or eight years, was shocked beyond
endurance by the spectacle. and leaning
over the back of the pew in front of him hs
called the attention Of the older deacon 70
his GROSS irreverence. The embarrassed
deacon grabbed his cont and the other berit
forward TO assist in putting it on, but ow-
ing to theft haste, agitation, and compli-
Gated struggle, the coat was only half put
on. In the struggle one OF the elder dea.
con u arms hit the younger deacon on the
head and pushed his wig-for wig il really
was--oyer toward his left ear. The volun-
teer choir almost went into commissions
over the episode.
