Some days before election the PRESS
pointed out that the same ratio of Re-
publican, gain and Democratic loss IN
Maine as the election returns of Ver-
mont showed would elect Gov. Cleaves
by $4,000 plurality, and Mr.. Reed by
over 1000 Gov. Cleaves's plurality OF
$1,000 o. $4,000 shows that that ratio was
Increased. This is to be attributed. we
believe, to the fact that thera are more
men in Maine engaged in manufacture
ing industries than in Vermont; and
consequently more men in this State who
had severely felt the effects of Demo-
cratic policy. If this lie the correct ex-
PLANTATION then it would seem to follow
that the Republican gains and Demo-
cratic loses would be even more notable
in States like Massachusetts and Con-
necticut when the per cent. of men en-
ployed in manufacturing industries is
much larger than in Maine.

Aroostook county, which last year
swelled the State valuation 5000, 600 will
hold it's own this year, but no large in
crease will come into the State assessors

increase of valuation was due to the
building of the Bangor & Aroostook
railroad.

SUGAR AND WHiTEWASH.

Disgrace of the Democracy in tho Tariff
 TangIc.
 The report of Senator Gray's com mittee on the sugar scandal was pro nounced by the New York Herald q "whitewashing report" in spite of which "the scandal that has sur rounded the manipulation of the sugar schedule will remain as one of the most disgraceful chapters in the history of American Legislation" The Herald shows that the main charge to be investigated, whether legislation had been promised in return for con tributions to the democratic campaign fund in 1892, the committee left with out satisfactory answer" and it did not even call the men who could have testified from knowledge. The mem- bers of the campaign committee who did testify were carefully not asked this question. The republican mem- bers of the committee point out that the sugar schedule as it stands is in the form desired by the sugar trust, although with the exception of five or six men at most the senate was unani- mously of the opinion that the refners

and the candidate who is now presi. dent all made pledge to the sugar in- terest, and are laboring to carry it out, how comes the row between them2 Because the president publicly de- nounced as ''perfdy" the bill of sale which the senators had framed. In order to carry any bill, duties had been fixed on coal and iron ore and on woolens and cottons, and pledges had been given that all should stand or fall together. But the president insists upon free coal, and declares it dis honor and perfdy to tax raw ma terials. Then Senator German an- swers that the president was pledged to the Mills bill, which put the tax on coal at seventy-five cents per ton, and that 'there is but one concern in the world to which free coal would give any especial benefit" He describes the contract by which the Canadian government, for twelve cents per ton royalty, gave exclusive control of the Nova Scotia coal fields to capitalists of the Canadian Pacific, and ''certain gentlemen within our own country as- sociated with them" and says:
 Here gre Boston, and Providence and 'New England. which consume tho soft coal of the two Virginias, Maryland and Pennsylvania We are nearer to it. tho Canadians said
 we can deliver the coal there and drive the Americans out of their own territory. Give us free coal, and we will sweep this American in- dustry from New England If you do you will place in tho Canadian treasury money which ought to go into the American treasury. You were thus asked to permit the greatest combi- nation of it's kind to enter the United States, MT. President we have trusts enough to deal with now. l shall never agree that a foreign trust shall enter our territory, and take the substance from our people,"
 It is obvious enough that the people of the two Virginias, Maryland and Pennsylvania will be disposed to ap- prove the position of the senator in this matter, and not that of the presi- dent who acts as agent for the Cana dian government and the Nova Scotia coal syndicate. Yet the conference committee was trying to make com. promise between these opposing in terests-as if it were possible by any
The Coconino weekly sun., 1894-08-23
should not have had so much protec-

should not have had so much protec- tiop.
 Senator Germans public declaration in his great speech on the presidents letter admitted that duty on sugar was distinctly promised during the campaign of 1899 to Senators Gibson and White, of Louisiana. These sena- tors had conferred first with the pres- ident, then the candidate who, in the words of Mir. German, told them that the democratic party was not to de- stroy industries, that it should place a fair duty upon dutiable articles, rev enue duty; that the bill which had met approval was the Mills bill, and on the lines of the Mills bill the democratic party would act" The Mills bill con- tained graduated duty on raw and an additional protective duty on re- fined sugar Then the senator related that he with Senators Brice and Smith were of the campaign committee. and were waited upon by the Louisiana senators after they had seen the presi- dent, and, says MT. German, i've all said yes, it is dutiable article; it is to be and must be the cornerstone by which we will overthrow Mckinley ism; you shall have it." He further said that he would have been glad to get free sugar, but no one had ever known him to break pledge.
 This is straightforward and manly admission that the democratic candi- date and organization were bound by formal pledge to favor duty on sugar, and more than that, dlffes- ential duty for the refners such as the Mills bill contained. But this state ment omits anything about the alleged reason for that pledge, or any contri- button by the sugar interest to the campaign fund. Right there the in- vestigating committee took so much care not to get at the truth that the public is compelled to draw its own in- ference And now it appears, from statements made in democratic jour oals, that the president was willing to 20 even further than the senate had gone in its "bill of sale" and to make the differential duty for refncrs fifth instead of an eighth of a cent. It is further stated that the latest schedule is vet retained, but as to phraseology md detail, the Herald says, the con ference committee has the assistance and cooperation of Secretary Carlisle and the advisory counsel of the presi- dent"

 "I know, measter," said Michael Raine, the publican, flor they owe me for weeks beer and 'bacca-the score is set ag'n' John Todd, Tim Black and Bill Yates"
 "'Bill Yates2' Are you sure?"
 "Sure to certain of that name, measter, for he said he wor come special to get upsides wi you"
 Then the ironmaster turned thought fully home, and as he kissed his wife, said:
 Bill Yates is dead, Laura. My vengeance has been taken from me by Him to whom vengeance belongeth. You may rest safely now, darling"
 "Bud, oh, Henry, what destiny might have been mine!'
 Don't say destiny Laura. Our choices are our destiny. Nothing is ours that our choices have not made ours"
 This is true story, and I tell it to many thousands of young girls with just as much earnestness as Laura told it to her daughters, to show tbem that clandestine love affairs are always highly dangerous; for passion that is cradled in deceit is pretGy sure to end in sin or shame or sorrow.-Amelia E.

 CY~Of course the sugar trust will subscribe heavily to the democratic congressional campaign fund. A re- publican victory would be terrible blow 10 the combine. "-St. Louis Globe, Democrat.
 CBThe tariff bill as it goes to the president is said to be full of blunders, omissions and inaccuracies. That part of it relating to the duty on sugar, however, will be found carefully drawn up and free from clerical errors. rs.-Chi- cago Tribune.
 eY"It is one thing for trusts to con- tribute locally" to the campaign funds of the democratic party and to lobby for eight months in Washington for special legislation. It is another thing for them to make their own schedules the condition of all tariff legislation and to whip in the presi- dent and both houses of congress to their support.-N. Y. Tribune.
