THE SUGAR TAX.

A correspondent at Ash cave, In
behalf of several readers of THE
SENTINEL" asks that these several
queries be answered.
l. Explanation of the sugar tax
as it has been, and as it is to be in
the proposed Wilson bill.
II. How did the sugar schedules
of the Mckinley bill work profit
to the sugar trust?
Ill. What is the differential-s
of l cent--of the senate bill?
Under the Mckinley law, raw
sugars are admitted free, and a
bounty of two cents per pound to
the domestic producer substituted,
in amount Sl2, 900, 900 or more an
nually.
The original draft Of the Wilson
bill left raw sugars free, and gave
duty of only 25 cents a hundred
pounds on refined sugars. But the
house sent the bill to the senate
with all sngars intended for domes-
tic use free.
Under the Mckinley bill refined
sugars received a specific duty of
one-half cent Per pound. AS the
cost of refining is only one half cent
per pound, and as the sugar trust
controls the entire supply, and as
the i;nportations are 1900, 200 tons
per annum, it is quite visible how
enormous a profit the Havemeyer
syndicate has been reaping since the
Mckinley law passed, and before, so
far as that goes, though it was not
centralized then. A profit of from
to 2 cents per pound flowed into
the Golfers of the trust.
Thirdly: The differeutials in the
senate bill are two, one-eightth of
cent on each pound and an additional
lilo OF a cent pr pound as against any
country paying bounty. And, of
course, the 40 per cent ad valorem
is also to be added. The Mckinley
bill also has this one-tenth of cent
differential.
Now, to figure on 100 pounds of
sugar. The one-elght specific duty
would be l24 cents. The one tenth
of l cent would be 10 cents. The
40 per cent ad velorem would be
abouts % cents on 100 pounds at the
latest market quotations. This ag-
gregates Az cents, not per cent, on
100 pounds of sugar. Considering
again the enormous. importations
the profit to the trust, as assert
ed some days ego, will be nothing
short of fabulous. And yet there is
a reduction from the Mckinley bill
in differentials of 70 per cent and on
raw sngar of so per cent.
The 40 per cent ad valorem on
on raw sugar is pure revenue tax,
and four fffths of the sugar tariff
goes into the treasury. The 40 per
cent on refined sugar is simply the
the necessary compensatory tax fer
the ad yalo1em on raw. The differ.
entail is purely protective tax,
laid upon the theory that Democrats
believe the implied contract with
the Louisiana cane grower and sugar
producer should be respected. lie
went to extra expense in the cultiva-
ton of larger crops induced by the
provision that the Mckinley bounty
should continue for 10 years.
Differential means difference-the
difference between the tax on raw

YESTERDAY Mayor Taylor, of
Newark, issued an order to the
effect that al! ten cent poker games
in that city will be raided in case
they are not closed by the last day
of the month. That Is very tough on
the average Newark citizen, but the
mayor shows his appreciation of the
hardship, by granting them ten
days grace during which time they
can fracture the law to their hearts
content.

County Commissioners.

EDITOR DEMOCRAT:-AllOw me q
few lines on this County Commiss-
ioner business. In my line of bus,
mess of late l have become informed
of the ways of the Board of County
Commissioner in Hooking county.
Early in June last, on business with
said Board, l learned that the next
meeting was set fov the first Satur-
day in August, when they expect to
adjourn until their regular session
in September next. Two of the
Board live in the village of Logan
and could meet every few days if
they wished. How does this COM
pare with the practice in this county;
and why can't the people in this
county insist on and have the same
economy? Some, yes many, predict
that they can and will. Hooking
county, while her territory is little
less than Fairfield, yet with her
mines, furnaces, etc., she is said to
transact nearly twice the financial
and commercial business, and her
road and bridge necessities, because
of her rivers, ravines, hills, gulleys
ETC., are much greater than those in
Fairfield. But one great secret of
the just economy in Hooking is
that the taxpayers still have, and
assert voice in the financial business
of the county, and the Shiny polite
ian and boodler have not yet got
complete control thereof. Now
can't this county turn over new
leaf. We think it can and will.

Detecting a S1nuggler.

A treasury agent, speaking of the
watchfulness Of Uncle Sans officials,
said: "A handsomely dressed man got
off ferryboat and seemed to be unusu-
ally nervous. A moment more and he
was struggling in the hands of the Off
GERS and desperately clutching at the
lapels Of his coat. It's no use, the
officers remarked; we know what you
have and where It is. Better give it up
and save trouble Appafeht1y crushed
by the discovery, the man Quietly as
Sisted in opening Seams and produced
the diamonds from various portions Of
his clothing. Your shoes, please!' This
rather staggered him, but he submitted
with good grace, and one of the heels
being unscrewed another lot, though
smaller and less valuable than the first,
was found there. The diamonds were
Examined and pronounced to be splen-
did article of paste, worth about rs
cents each. This did not satisfy us, and
the man was stripped to the skin. A
huge piece of sticking plaster was on
his back, which was removed, and un-
der it were concealed scores of genuine
diamonds. It is not often that ruse
is SO adroitly planned and practiced. :"

THE SECRETARY BIRD.
Fshe Cool Manner In Which IT Kills s,,,,
Its Natural Prey.

Its Natural Prev
as soon as the secretary bird, or
snake eater, of South Africa discovers
a1lake, 1t advances toward it without
hurry and without hesitation, and when
Within striking distance it immediately
e1evates Its crest and the feathers of the
neck and without losing any time de-
ilVers blow with its foot. If the snake
mas avoided the blow and attempts to
strlke back, the bird interposes a wing,
mus receiving the deadly fangs harm
iessly upon the long feathers and i'm
medlately strikes again.
Inc hight is then virtually over, for
1t the secretary gets in a single blow
the snakes back is broken, and the bird.
Hghtn1nglike, plants its foot firmly on
the reptiles neck and head, pressing
them into the ground, while it delivers
Inc coup dc grace with its beak, and
then deliberately swallows the snake
Wnole' beginning at the tail, and just
before the head disappears, giving it an
enthusiastic parting rap on the ground.
But there is nothing refined about the
secretary birds appetite, for one writer
says he found inside one three serpents
las long as his ARM II lizards 7
inches long, 81 tortoises about inches
IN diameter, "besides a large quantity
or grasshoppers and other insects or
IN other words, ~ feet of snake, 6b
OF lizard, = Of tortoise and say yard
OF miscellaneous trihesl
The secretary bird is protected by the
cape authorities for the immensa nnhlic
benefit it confers in eating poisonous
snakes, and a penalty is attached by
law to its destruction. And if it were
necessary hundreds of eyewitnesses
could be called to prove it's right to the
title OF serpentarius. Curiously enough,
too, this bird may be trained, and is
trained, to protect poultry yards, not
, only from snakes, which are too fond of
eggs, but from other birds Of prey.-St.

cred it an awful problem how to dis
pose of her. Finally they hit upon a
plan They treated her as if she was a

Doubtless, to judge from your aver

cides, crimes and catastrophes, wars
and feuds and frauds, would seem to re-
main the staple Of the human record.
But be it remembered that, for obvious
reasons. all our worst and darkest is COL

ceptions to it. AS for sins--the most Sc
rious of which are only such as are

crease, they seem steadily to diminish.
We had S7,66S "habituals' in 1868:
now the evil roll is only 50, 1853.
When the population of England was
1921. 900 in 1869, there We're 1850

bow, with a population of 81, $50, 179,
the number is only 941. In 1878 the en-
tire number Of prisoners in our ja1ls
was go, 1913; the entire number at the
same date last year was 12, 6G3, though
the population had increased by 6.000,-

WHY AUGUSTUS LIVED.

County of Pike, in the town of D.,
Lived soulful soul named Augustus
And Augustus grew and his soul waxed
strong,
And the hair on his head got extremely
long.
And over his chin, like trellised vine.
Grew the circling whisiers-very fine.
And feelings strange and emotions great
Came into Augustus throbbing pate.
And he beat his breast, and he cried in glee.
"A poet great am bound to be!'
So he sat him down in a frenzied mood
And dashed off a thing that he thought
was good
And he read it again in voice intense
And exclaimed, ''Why, this is simply i'm
