The Prospects for Sugar.

The finance committee of the
Senate is now revising the Wilson
tariff bill. That committee is
willing to put tariff OF one
cent an all sugars, but our
Senators who are doing a noble
work for the sugar industry OF
Louisiana, insist on a tariff of one
and half cents. The latest re-
ports from Washington says, ii
the Wilson bill can PASS the Se-
nate without the vote of the Loul-
siana Senators there will be a
tariff of one cent put Oh sugar, ii
it is impossible to pass the biil
without the two votes OF the Lorl'
siana Senators, then the commit.
tee will be forced to grant then
demand and put tariff OF one
and a half cents on sugar.
All indications are, however
that we will get at least one cen
tariff on sugar. We hope, how
ever, for high rate.
