THE ONE-EIGHTH OIFFERER-
 TIAL

It was the vote of the presioing officer Of the senate that sent ths infamous sugar schedule back to the conference committee; but the people ought Dot be deceived by this pretsnded struggle. The one eight differential duty seeming ly contended for on refined sugar for the benefit of the trust in all g8mmon. The people may confidently expect to see it abandoned and the 40 or 45 per ceat. duty on all sugars substituted for it.
 Why? Because the latter affords the trust the greatest protection. To demonstrate this fact in easy enough. The price of raw sugar is, say, 3115 cents per pound, which, with the duty of 45 per cent. ad valorem added, makes it's cost cents end fraction per pound. Add the l per cent. for cost of refining and profit to the refner, and it will put the refined sugar on the market at about cents per pound. To compete with the trust the foreign refner has to pay duty on the refined sugar on cents per pound, instead of 31S cents; the difference in duty on the cost of refining is 45 cents per loo poCads, or nearly four times as great as the one- eight dlfferential, which is seemingly the cause of the present contention be- tween the two houses of congress.

THE CITIZEN has all along maintained that Hon. N. O. Murphy was the strong est man before the country for the re- publican nomination for congress; and in view of the results of the Phoenix primaries we have DO good reason for changing our views on the subject. We have maintained he is the stro est man for the reason that the people have so expressed themselves. Everywhere a decided preference for him is be'ng shown, and the many kindly expressions in hIs behalf from men who have hith- erto voted with the democracy is aD evi- dence that he will not only poll his own party vote but will draw largely from the ranks of the enemy. We do not%ay this for the purpose of influencing a y one in his interests, for whether We would or not, this conclusion has been forced upon us by the repeated declara- tion in his favor. We have no assuIance that he will accept the nomination, tut its generally understood that he will Hnd on that understanding friends are rally ing to him from all divisions of the ter ritory. We believe that so far as Mr. Murphy himself is concerned r. is his wish that delegates be sent to 3ha convention unpledged, and further we are satisfied that he will loyelly support any nominee put forward by the con yention

THE primary election in Phoenix on Thursday last was an eye opener and an eye closer so far as Maricopa ecu ty is concerned in the territorial coDven- ton. Two tickets were in the field, one representing the interests of pr. G' cd, rich, the other that of Oaks MuTpht The former claimed to have a call on the republican nomination for congress but when the ballots were counted th"y stood three to one in favor of the i>t- ter. This puts Murphy squarely before the country and his race for congress may be said to have practically btgnn. He will come to the convection with ms own county solidly behind him.
