ducers. The Fresno journal is in error in
stating that The CALL has said that the
foreign producer paid the duty on sugar.
The foreign producer pays the duty or a
large part of it on articles which we can
produce IN abundance at home. but on
articles that we necessarily import in all
or in large part the consumer pays the
duty. THE CALL has advocated duty on
sugar as a means of protecting valuable
home industry. In taking this position
the admission has freely been made that
the price of sugar in this country would be
increased by the amount of the duty until
such time as the domestic product should
be large enough to influence If not to
absolutely control the prices. The fact
that the duty is paid by the consumers is
admitted by the provision in the NJ Kinley
bill. giving home producers bounty OF .
cents in place of the protection they re-
eeived under the law imposing duty.

LUCKY MILLET.

SUGAR DUTIES.

The Fresno EIpositor does not yet seem
to understand how duty on one article
may be paid by the foreign producer ard
the duty on another article be paid by the
home consumer. The EIpositor finds an
incon sIstency in THE CALL in arguing
that the domestic consumer will have To
pay any duty that may now be levied on
sugar in the face of former arguments

IN THE BACKGROUND.

The Pdiaronidn intimates that some big
corporation must be backing the Monterey
Fresno road. The Holister Free Lance
is of the same opinion. The former jour-
nal remarks:
The readiness with which the bonds have
been taken, the speed with which the contrac
has been let. indicate that there is something
larger than Colonel Jones in the background.
One of The big railroad systems of the country
must be in the back ground OF this project-and
there are many things that point in the direc
tion of Z. Z. Huntington and the S. p. Co. The
Traffic Association and the opposition steam
ship line have lessened the love OF The S. p Co.
for San Francisco. and IL is possible that the
railroad people are backing the crosscountry
line to give them short route 10 deep water
and at the me time frighten the merchants of
the metropolis.
The merchants of San Francisco are not
in the least disturbed at the success of the
Fresh o. Monterey road in placing its
bonds. The completion of a road from
Fresno 10 Los Angeles will not hurt the
prospects of the Bakersfield and Stockton
road. The ocean route and the Stockton
road will enable San Francisco to place
goods all along the San Joaquin Valley at
lower cost than any other distributing
point can afford. The purpose OF the
Stockton road will not be so much to
make large dividends to stockholders as to
open country to trade. The distributing
point that can supply a given territory at
the least cost will get lis trade.

then beat her If she didn't save half Of il. Yes
terday he beat Eer, and before Justice O'Dou-
nell gets through with him he'll wish he hadn't.
He is held for further examination.

be a professional wife beater, yesterday he be-
1abored his betterhalf with abroom stick cutting
open her head. He was arrested and ia default

A Queer Annual Fair at Helmagsn and
the Strange Origin Alleged.
Helmagen, a Roumanian country town
of 1000 inhabitants, holds its annual fair
on the feast of St Theodore. On this oc
casion the place swarms with newly mar
ried brides from sixty or eighty villages in
the district; widows who have taken fresh
husbands remain at home. The young
women in festive attire, and generally at
tended by their mother-in-law, carry Jugs
OF wine enwreathed with flowers ii their
hands.
They kiss everyone they meet, and after
ware present the jug to his lips for a
nip" The individual thus RECALLED be-
slows a small gift on the fair Cybele. Not
to partake of the pfoffered wine is re-
g+rded as an insult to the young wife and
her family. She is, therefore, reserved
toward strangers, and only kisses those
whom she thinks likely to taste of her
wine. The kissing is carried on every
where in the street, in the taverns and in
private houses.
The origin of this custom is yelled in
obscurity. Some say that it dates back
to the time when the Turks made fire.

away all the young women they could Law
their hands apon. Such of them as con-
trlved to escape fro M captivity happened
to return to Helmagen at the time of the
