THE SUGAR TRUST--ITS PUR'
POSES AND PROFITS.

According to admissions of President
Havemeyer. of the Sugar Trust, before
the Senate Committee, the trust was
organized to control the sugar trade Of
this country, and has ixedthe price at
just a fraction below what sugar Of the
same quality can be imported, which
gives the trust a profit of 81 cents on
each 100 lbs, or a clear profit in the
last three years of more than $34, 00O,-
900. The profits in these three years
largely exceed the whole outlay for
machinery, chemicals and all other
materials used in the purifying of the
raw materials into sugar, while the
bounty they receive from the govern
ment is surplus cash and every cent of
it can be loaned out DR. otherwise in
vested in speculation outside the rein
cry business and the business go on
undisturbed. Here is a short extract
from the testimony given by President
Havemeyer on Tuesday, June 10:
@ -And the Trust was organized,
Mr.. Havemeyer, as / understand it,
with the view of controlling the price
and output to the people of this coun
try7
"A.-That was one of the objects of
the consolidation.
g -And you have succeeded in do
ing it,
"Q-That was the principal object
in organizing the American Sugar Re
filming COmpany9
At may be said that that was
the principal object.
"Q-And making money, incident
to that controls
"A.-Yes, sir"
We add the folio wing extract from
the testimony given by the same gen
tleman on Wednesday:
"Q-Is not this the further fact,
that the Trust, being able to fix the
price in America-has not betn the
policy of the Trust to fix it just low
enough to keep out refined sugar made
in foreign countries9
"A.-That is the business practically
of the American Sugar Refining Com
pany.
"Q.-And have you SO fixed it as
to practically exclude all foreign com
petition9
"A.-Yes, sir.
"Q-In fact, the very purpose of the
formation Of the Trust, as / understand
you, was to advance the price of sugar
to the American c0nsumer9
"A.-Yes, sir.
"Q.-And the American consumer is
today paying 8 of a cent a pound on
refined sugars more than he would be
compelled to pay under a system of
free Cor separately refineries9

THE ALLIANCE AND PARTIES.

The Alliance is often referred to as a
political organization; at least, when
ever the result of its action upsets the
calculation of a polical organization.
The true position is this: The aims
and objects of the Alliance are broader
and stronger than any party policy,
and when they come in collision with
it, it is the party organization that
suffers, every time, The Alliance does
not propose to war on any party, but 1T
proposes to carry out its purposes to
protect the interests of the wealth pro-
ducers; and if it's track lies directly
through a forest of party pines, down
they have to come. There is an ele-
ment of patriotism in this that no party
organization can retain. AS a general
thing, political parties are brought
into life by means of a noble principle
but it is impossible that corruptions
should not creep in. "Whcre the car
cass is, there the eagles will be gathered
together"

their foundation'i in Christ.
After the sermon there was a meet
ing of the Alumni Association. w. e.
Daniel, Esq, of Weldon, offered the
following resolutions:
WHEREAS, DIR. 9. E Taylor has pub
lished in the Biblical Recorder a series
on Chow far ought a State to under
take to educated" and whereas, these
articles discuss questions of great and
vital interest, and of practical import
ance to all our people; therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That, in the opinion of the
Alumni Association of Wake Forest
College, these articles are timely, i'm
portant and wise, and in u judgment
the principles discussed are correct, the
positions taken just to all, and deserve
the support of every citizen.
2 That in the interest of the rights
of citizenship we deem it Proper that
the subject be brought before the peo-
pie from the standpoints of discussion
in the same spirit of fairness which
characterizes these articles.
The resolutions were warmly dis
cussed and were adopted with only one
dissenting vote.
eve would add here, by the way,
that President Taylor's articles are now
printed in pamphlet form, and are to
be had by any one who will send his
address. They should be in the hands
of every tax payer.)
Thursday was Commencement Day
proper. One c. the largest audiences
aver seen at Wake Forest assembled
in the chapel at IL o'clock to hear the
speeches of the graduating class. De-
grees were conferred upon 90 young
men. Mr.. r. w. Haywood, Valedic-
torian, received the highest honors,
with an average grade of SO 81. Mr..
W. Fourshee, Sa~lutatorian, was next
best, with a grade of SO "a. Orations
were delivered by M. O. Carpenter, r.
T. Freeman, j. e. Yates, r. F. Beasley.
and J. D. Robertson, all of whom were
among the Bachelors of Arts. Presi
dent Taylor babe farewell to the class
in words which closed fittingly the
great work done in the college during
the past session.

The Masons will celebrate st. Johns
dav at Oxford, N. O., on the 22d of this
month. The Grand Lodge meets there
at that time. The Oxford Orphan Asy-
lum is situated at that place, and is the
property of the Masons of North Caro-
lima. This ought to be the rallying
ground for Masonry in the State. They
ought to be fully acquainted with their
property-see how it is being con-
Quoted and what it is doing. The
Orphan Asylum is n of the greatest
factors in the State to do good in the
best way to those who, without it's
benefcent influence, would bring dis,
honor instead of credit.

After the address, there was a meeting
