1F there is any one class Of people
in This country who are benefit ed
above another by the operation of the
new tariff and other reforms set
agoing by the Democratic party that
class is the farmer. The expenses of
the government have been reduced by
many millions Of dollars, thereby
lessening his burden of taxes, while
the cost of his agricultural imple-
ments and machinery, his building
and fencing material, his cl0thing and
family supplies, in almost every arti-
Gle, is cut down from ten to 200 per
cent.

RITTER SWEET TO REpuBLIoANs.


One of the favorite themes of pre-
tion advocates and Mckinley apollo
gists is the sugar question. They as
sert that the Mckinley law made
sugar free, and that the new law
imposes duty upon it. The state
rnent is glaring falsehood as 10
sugar being free under the Mckinley
law II is true that raw sugar that
is, the lower grades of common brown
sugar was admitted duty free. This
was done in the interest OF the refin-
ors, the sugar trust, solely, for that
quality of sugar does not enter into
consumption as does refined sugar, on
which the Mckinley law imposed
tax of half a cent pound the whole
of which was added TO the price of
refined sugar, was paid by the con-
sumer and went into the Golfers Of the
trust, the government getting none OF
it because the tax on refined sugar
kept the foreign article out, only the
grades being admitted.
But this isn't all In order to satisfy
the cupidity of the cane sugar pro-
ducers of Louisiana, the sugar beet
growers of California and the sugar
tree tappers of New England and to
compensate them for the loss OF the
protection" they had had removed
for the benefit of the trust-a tax of
two cents pound for all the raw
sugar produced in the country was
laid upon the people TO be paid to the
said producers In the form Of bounty
and that tax, amounting to Si2.
600 year, was pEid out of the treas
ury and into the pockets OF the favor
ed class named. So that the people
were taxed under the Me Kinley la W
for both the raw and the refined
sugar, every cent of which went into
the pockets of the trust and the fre c
sugar growers here. aud together ag-
gregated a burden of upwards OF $780,
900, 600 annually, to be borne by the
people OF the country.
What does the new law do with
sugar. Its provisions are very simple
and are explained in word. 1t cuts
off the cents bounty, thereby saving
TO the people in taxes Sl2. 900, 700 paid
under the Mckinley law, and imposes
small duty on all sugars, thus af-
fording the producers here protection
70 their 'infant industry" and afford
ing the government nesded revenue
for which purpose alone the duty was
imposed and Of which the government
gets the beneGt.
The differences, in brief, between the
new law aud the Mckinley act Is, that
the taxes imposed upon sugar by the
latter-and all sugar was taxed by 1t
as we have shown-were paid by the
consumers and went 10 enrich the fa-
vored few. while the duty laid by the
new law raises revenue for the sup
port of the government, all Of which,

cans, aided by three Popuhsts aud as

Arguments Begun In Mandamus Pro-
ceedIngs Against Secretary Carlisle.
WASHINGTON, Oct Sin the man
damus proceedings instituted against
Secretary Carlisle General Brent
maintained that the title and right to
bounty is based on the inspection by
the officers of the internal revenue
bureau, and that the bounty was pay
able for five years from July l,
1891, by law. The company had been
duly licensed and had given a bond
for $3.50, 600 and was entitled during
the period referred to, 20 a protection
OF its interests and rights. Counsel
did not claim that the law granting a
bounty could not be repealed, but
they asserted that it had not been re-
pealed. Independent of the payment
of the bounty, the company had the
right TO show that IL had earned it.
That could only be done through an
inspection of its work, and when the
government licensed the company,
il agreed to give il certificate of the
commissioners of internal revenue
that the company was entitled to the
bounty. The company did not ask the
court to compel the secretary of the
treasury TO pay IL the bounty, but
merely TO compel an inspection. The
company was licensed when the Nc
Kinley law was in force, and the act
made a permanent and continuing ap'
preparation to pay the bounty and
just claim on the government
Assistant Attorney General Whit
ney, arguing in behalf of the secre-
tary, asserted the court had no au-
thority TO mandamus the secretary, a
the action asked was purely discre.
tionary. In but three instances had
writs of mandamus from the court is
sued and those were in cases
where the duties to be per
formed were ministerial and not
discre tionary. The contention OF
the Miles company was not that the
secretary should pay the bounty, but
that the inspection should be made
This, he asserted, was in order tn,
company could have grounds or
which to go before Congress and ask
for an appropriation for this year,
and the courts could not be invoked
| for this purpose.

lie Severely Denoun the Organization
In His October Pastoral
DENVER Col, Oct. 5.--In his October
pastoral Bishop Matz says the church
in Colorado is passing through an APP
palling crisis. ''lt is" he says, ''sec-
tartan bgotry, which, led on by a set
OF fanatics, bids fair To outdo the fol-
levers Of Cromwell and the maniacs of
the French Commune. II is fact which
has called forth the amazement of the
most remarkable men of our time,
that an age like ours, and country
over which floats the American flag,
should have fostered this A. p. A.
monster, which, while it carries the
constitution of the United States in
one hand and the bible in the other,
would fain strangle with its deadly
fangs the church whose children
fought so bravely under the stars and
stripes against tyranny and oppres-
sion. But the fact, nevertheless, re-
mains, and is, indeed, more strange
than fiction"
The bishop urges Catholics to vote
for men who are above prejudice,
party passions and seetarian bias.
