A BLOW AT THE SUGAR TRUST.
WOULD ENCOURAGE COMMERCE..

With the advent of new tariff policy not
only calculated to relieve the consumers of our
land ia the cost of their daily life but TO invite
a better development Of American thrift and
create for US closer and moro profitable com.
mercial relations with the rest Of the world it
follows as logical and imperative necessity
that we should at once remove the chief, if not
the only obstacle, which has SO long prevented
our participation in the foreign carrying trade
of the sea.
A tariff built upon the theory that il is well
to check imports. and that a home market
should bound the industry aud effort of Ameri-
can producers, was fifty supplemented by a re.
fusal TO allow American registry TO vessels
| built abroad, though owned and navigated by
our people. thus exhibiting a willingness TO
abandon all contest for the advantages of
American transoceanic carriage.
Our new tariff policy, built upon the theory
that IL is well to encourage such importations
| as our people need, and that our products and
manufactures should find markets in every
part of the babitable globe, is consistently sup.
plemented by the greatest possible liberty to
our citizens in the ownership and navigation
OF ships in which our products and manufac-
lures may be transported. The millions now
| paid to foreigners for carrying American pass
engers aud products across the sea should be
| turned into American hands.
Sbipbuilding, which has been protected TO
STANDARDIZATION, shouio DC revived pg tie pros
pect of profitable employment for ships when
| built and the American sailor should be resur-
rectcd and agair take his place, a sturdy and
| industrious citizen in time of peace aud a
patriotic aud safe defender of American inter
ests-in the day of conflict
The ancient provision Of our law denying
American registry TO ships built abroad and
owned by Americans appears in the light of
present conditions not only 10 be failure for
gOOi at every point, but 10 he nearer relic of
barlarism than anything that exists under the
permission of a statute of the United States.
| earnestly recommend its prompt repeal
The National tribune., 1894-12-06
THE TARIFF.

His views on the tariff are:
The tariff act passed at the last session of
the Congress needs important amendments if
it is TO be executed effectively and with GER
tainty. In addition 10 such necessary amend
ments as will not change rates of duty, / am
still very decidedly in favor Of putting coal
aud iron on the free list
BLOW AT THE SUGAR TRUST.
So far IS the sugar schedule is concerned,
would be glad, under existing aggravations, 10
see every particle Of diferential duty in favor
OF refined sugar stricken out of our tariff law
II, with all the favor accorded the sugar
refining interest in our tariff laws it still lam
guishes TO the extent of closed refneries and
thousands Of discharged workmen, it would
seem to present hopeless case for reasonable
legislative aid.
Whatever else is done omitted earnestly
repeat here the recommendation have made
in another portion of this communication, that
the additional duty Of LILO OF a cent per pound
laid upon sugar imported from countries pay
ing bounty on the export be abrogated. 1t
seems TO me that exceedingly important con-
siderations point TO the propriety Of this amend
| ment.

SEATTLE, Oct. IL. 1904
To THE EDIroR: In this mornings Tsle-
graph there is printed what purports to be
report of a speech delivered by Mr.. E
r. Blaine az Du sainish on Saturday night,
IN which report ind the following Ian
guage: He tBlaIne) then told how the

was foreman of the grand jury, had come

poajtion In which Mr.. Blaine has placed
himself. /! Mr.. BIaine's remarks are re-
ported correctly by the Telegraph in the
above quotation, he either lied when ne
made the above statement or he is as
guilty as he would have us believe Van de
Vanter to be.
believe the first of the two propositions
to be true. Mr.. Blaine is q lawyer and is
therefore presumed TO know the law, and
being a lawyer, regularly admitted and
practicing before the superior court of King
county. he is an officer OF the said court
and IS such it was his duty to Immediately
report TO the Judge or prosecuting attor-
ney and the grand jury. then In session,

unlawful proposition. Had he pone so

matter was thoroughly investigated.

An Ia A. R. U. strike. I
CHICAGO, Nov. ga special to The
Post from Denver says that the annual
convention of the American Federation
of Labor, to be held in that city in De-
cember, will develop a hard fight
against the reelection of President
Samuel Gompers, Secretary Mcclure of
the United Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joiners, and General Secretary
Chris Evans. The opposition is the re-
suit of the action of tine Federation last
summer, in refusing to recommend
sympathetic strikes in support of the
A. r. u. railroad strikes. To the ''tri-
ANGLE" Gompers, Mcclure and Evans,
is charged the responsibility OF
the federation's determination to
keep its skirts clear of the A. r. u. i'm
broglio, and to these three officials, the
A. r. u. and its sympathizers charge
the defeat of the great strike. 1t is saiu
that in their efforts to breed disaffection
against the present management, the
A. r. U. have the support of some of
the officials Of the Knights of Labor.
The radical socialistic element, which
has long antagonized President Gom-
pers, will, it is said, aid in the attempt
to secure his overthrow and will prob,
ably endeavor to elect to the presidency
of the Federation President Mcbride OF
this United Mine Workers of America.

DUCEY-CORRIGAN.
Considerable Friction Developed by the
Lexow Investigation.

Considerable Friction Developed by the
Lexow investigation.
NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Itis announced
by the friends of Father Thomas J.
Ducey, pastor of st. Leo's, that Father
Ducey has appealed to Mgr. Satolli for
liberty to attend the sessions of the
LexoW committee, which Archbishop
Corrigan has forbidden him to attend.
Father Ducey has confirmed the story
Of his being forbidden by the arch.
bishop and the situation has become
grave in view Of the probability that
Father Ducey will rebel against the
archbishop's order. tits also possible
that both the archbishop and Father
Ducey viii be summoned before the
Lexow committee. Archbishop Corri-
gan, it is said, will be invited to show
a copy of the letter he has written to
Father Ducey ON the subject of the
Lexow committee. 1t is said that
Father Ducey has consulted with Arch
bishop Ireland and DIR. Burtsell about
the matter. .....-
Thinks Himself q Free Man.
LIZ you IccOSuiAc tud6 tu6 dISA"
bishop has any right to forbid your
presence at the committee meetings.
wal asked Father Ducey.
~ do not recognize that a bishop or
any other nan has the right to inter
fere with the liberty of an independent
citizen, whether he be a priest or a lay
man, unless he is violating the laws of
God, some defined law of the Christian
religion, or some law Of the state or
nation" replied Father Ducey.
Father Ducey has taken great inter.
est in the Lexow investigation. and has
aided in every way possible in~the ex-
posture of official crime.
