The SUGAR Trusts Grip.

There does not seem to be any longer
room for doubt that the real obstacle in
the way of tariff agreement is the sugar
trust. That powerful combination practi-
callv dictated the sugar schedule IN the
German tariff bill, and it is not going to
give up that schedule if it can help doing
so. A Washington dispatch says that
there are a few democratic senators
enough to defeat all tariff legislation
if they should be so minded-who could
not be more anxious TO please the sugar
trust if they we're its attorneys.
A day or two ago when the House con-
ferees proposed to so change the sugar
schedule as to put an ad valorem duty of
40 per cent. on raw sugar and a specific
duty of one-6fth of per cent. on refined
sugar it could not be discovered whether
or not the Senate would accept this prop
osition until the trust senators had con-
suited with. the agents of the sugar trust.
The trusts agents, it seems, said
the trust would accept the offer,
and the trust senators hurried to the cap
itol to inform the tariff conferees that the
proposed new schedule wo uld be satisfac-
tory. 1t turned out, however, that it was
not satisfactory to the president of the
trust, who telegraphed from New York to
his Washington representative that the
proposed change in the sugar schedule
would not be accepted by the trust. And
thus, by the trust, was the work of the
CoEferees again checked.
1t is a remarkable condition of affairs
that all other interests of the country
must be injured by delay while the
sugar trust is getting what it wants.
And its demands are not easily satisfied.
Under the present. tariff it has protection
TO the extent of 60 cents per 100 pounds
on the product of its factories. In the
German bill the protection provided is
estimated to be all the way from
4213 cents peril pounds to Az cents.
The change that was proposed the other
day would give the trust about 80 cents
per 100 pounds.
And is not 80 cents per 100 pounds
enough That amount of protection
would enable the trust to make, net,
millions of dollars every year. 1t would
not enable the trust to pay as big divi-
bends upon its watered stock as it has
been paying, but it would let it take as
much money out of the pockets of the
people as it ought to be permitted to take

The Dixie Interstate Fair.

The efforts that the managers of the
Dixie Interstate Fair are making to in
sure the success of that undertaking are
attracting a great deal of attention in
this and other states. 1t is certain now
that the fair will not be an ordinary state
fair. 1t will be great deal more than
that. 1t is under the auspices of the
State Agricultural Society and the Macon
Exposition Company, and the cash pre-
miums amount to 1000. 1t is apparent
from this brief statement that Georgia is
to have an exposition this year that
will be highly creditable to her. 1t
will open on Oct. % and close on Nov. s.
a season of the year when the weather in
Georgia is usually extremely pleasant
Assurances have been received that there
will be exhibitors from many states. In
deed, it is cafe to say that at least half
the states of the union will be repre-
scented.
The men at the head of the fair are
broad minded, progressive and ener-
getic. They understand thoroughly
what is required of them, and
the results of their efforts
will astonish all who have the good for
tune to visit the fair.
A feature will be the races, for which
ample provision has been made The
track is an excellent one and is being
greatly improved. Some of the best
horses in the country will contest for
the prizes.
In this fair Macon proposes to show the
country what she can do, mainly through
her own resources, in providing an exposi-
ton. Unless all signs fail it will be
worth travelling from the most distant
states to see

Representative BANDS bill to raise
Sl00,000,000 by en- income tax, prepared in
anticipation of the defeat of the tariff
bill is merely an illustration of the ex-
tent to which an Ubiquitous proposition
will sometimes lead people. Bland, and
the other southern congressman who
stand with him in favor of an income tax.
know very well that the few men in the
south who have taxable incomes
are the most unevenly and I'M
justly taxed people in the country, con-
sidering all the circumstances. They pay
for the state. county and municipal gov
ernments by direct taxation, and contrib
ute as much as, or more than, they ought
10 the national government by indirect
taxation. Yet Bland and his cohorts pro
pose to increase still further the burden
of southern people by putting direct
taxes upon them for the benefit of the
north and west. Whatever amount of
money might be squeezed out of southern
men in direct taxes would go at once to
the north and west to pay pensions, build
ships and support the army and navy.
The pension payments last year amounted
to Sl5Sl55, 1925 and hardly more than
one-half of per cent. of that amount was
discussed in the south. Practically all of
the naval vessels are built at the north or
on the Pacific coast. The army is main.
tanned for the protection of the west, and
all the money spent by the army is spent
in the north or the west. The north and
the Pacific coast are the only sections
whose cities have been provided with har-
Dor or coast defenses. All that the south
gets from the public treasury is few
grudged appropriations for rivers and
harbors, and few second or third rate
public buildings. Yet the Blands in con
gress favor squeezing more money out of
the southern men for the benefit of the
north and west.

DESERVING the Populist Party.

Later returns from Alabama show that
the democratic victory in that state on
Monday is much greater than it was
thought it was on the night Of the cleo
f.. ton, and greater than the democratic
leaders thought it would be when they
were making estimates prior 10 the cleo
| ton. The conclusion is that the popuIist
/ party is losing strength in Alabama. In
| fact, il is losing strength in all of the
! states. The reason is that its demands
| are unreasonable. They do not appeal
to the common sense of the people. The
purpose Of the most of them is 10
catch votes. Every man who IS capable
of thinking clearly and logically knows
that the sub-treasury scheme is impracti-
cable, and that government control Of
railroads, even if it were practicable,
would result in a dangerous Capitalization
of power. Indeed, there is no one of the
demands of the populists that promises
any benefit TO the people.
There would be no populist party if
there were no disappointed Odiceseekers.
The leaders of the party are, as a rule,
men who have been repudiated by the
people and who have failed at almost
everything they have undertaken. The
people are not going TO confde their inter
ests 10 such men. With few exceptions
those who compose the mem bership of the
populist party are not men who are the
leading and thinking men in their respect
i've communities.
This man Kolb in Alabama is typical
populist He wants to be governor of his
state. Three times he has been a candi-
date for that Office and each time he has
been defeated. He began by calling him
self a "Jehersonian democrat" He had
only vague idea of what was meant by
that term. He certainly never advocated
the political principles in which jefferson
believed. He next affiliated with the
populist, and finally in the campaign
which ended Monday he stood upon
platform made up of pOpulist demands
and republican principles. 1t is doubtful
if he knows now whether he is a "Jeffer-
soniad democrat" pOpulist or a republi-
can. He would willingly acknowledge
himself to be either probably if, by doing
so, he could get to be governor
At the state election, previous to the
one of Monday, he was supported mainly
by populists and democrats who were his
personal followers At the last election
he had beside the support of his personal
followers and the populists, the help of
the republicans. The republican vote in
Alabama must be quite large. Still, not
withstanding the support of the republi-
cans, he was beaten by majority more
than twice as large as that by which he
was beaten two years ago. Is it not,
therefore, apparent that the populist
party is losing its hold in Alabama
One thing that Mondays election
showed beyond all doubt is that there
was no foundation for Kolb's assertion
that he was counted out at the election
two years ago. A good many well mean
ing people believed that assertion. They
believe it no longer. Kolb has teen
weighed in the balance and found want
ing. He is what is sometimes called a
political dead duck.
