An ANALYSIS Of the foregoing figures
will show that out OF the annual aver
age of imports Of less than >, 800, 900, coo
pounds OF raw sugar there we're IL 40
000,00) pounds imported between 80 and
90 degrees test, leaving only 736,0JO,-
900 pounds imported between the range
of 10 and 80 degrees te st. In other
words, during the whole OF this period
of eight years there was at least 10 per
cent. of high grade sugar imported
into the United states, while only 30
per cent. W low grade or the poor
mans sugar"
According to Mr.. Havemeyer's
theory there must be very few poor
men" in the United States. In fact,
they must constitute in all below 30
per cent. of our entire population,
which is remarkably gratifying proof
of the prosperity of the country and OF
the people under "a protective tariif.
Since the operation of the Mckinley
tariff the cheaper price of the high
grade sugar, such as graduated, has
resulted in is much greater consump-
ton, with con equent lessening of the
demand for the low grade yellow sugars
ION which the greatest amount of capt.
tai and labor is employed in its manu-
facture and the cost of manufact-
uro generally is expended" There
fore, it is quite fair TO assume that
more than % per cent. OF the sugar re-
fined now consists OF high grade sugar,
and that less than 20 per cent. Is "the
poor mans sugar." the cost of manu-
facture, therefore, having been de-
creased proportionately.

The foregoing paragraphs are taken
from the testimony OF Mr.. Henry ..
Havemeyer, the President of the Sugar
Trust, in answer to questions pro-
pounded by Senator Gray and Senator
Davis OF the Senate invest eating COM
mittee. Those were the statements OF
Mr.. Havemeyer Now for the facts.
The facts are that over 10 per cent.
of the sugar imp Drted into the United
States is high grade and less than 30
per cent. is low grade. "The poor
man" uses high grade granulated sug-
ar, which can be made out of both
high and low grade raw sugars. The
yell Nv sugars are not found now on the
tables of the people, and the darkest
colored sugars are used mainly for to-
bacco curing and such purposes, very

Lumber Men Suffer.

From present indications the lumt er
business which has been one of the
leading Industries in Western South
Carolina. must go down. Some of our
largest iumhermen say that unless
there is speedy change they will be
compelled to abandon the business. AS
a consequence, every other industry in
this section is simply drag !ing alon 2,
and, one by one, sinking iLto oblivion.
The country is full of Zig, strong men
going in every direction hunting a
job" This dreadful situation is due to
the threatened free-trade policy of the
preseut administration. Give us pro-
lection, and we will soon drift back to
prosperity.

Cleveland's first administration of IL

was elected the prospect of increased
protection induced the growers to stop
the slaughter OF their sheep. and as a
consequence the focks increased from

March, 1893, when President Cleveland
was inaugurated, an in rease under
protection of 81 per cent. The assault
upon the industry by the free wool
policy has so discouraged those en-
gagged in wool growing that more sheep
were destroyed in the first year Of
President Cleveland's second alminis-
tration than were destroyed during the
whole four years OF his first admins

THE TELEPHONE.
A Line to be Constructed Between En-
NETT and Caldwell.
Agent, Caldwell Idaho.

The proposition of constructing tel
ephone line between Emmett and CaId-
well has been considered and talked of
for some time and at last is in a fair way
Of materializing. Mayor Gwinn was
over from Caldwell last week on a busi-
ness and pleasure trip and while here
revived the telephone project to such
an extent that 800 were subscribed be-
fore he returned home and il is expected
enough more can be raised in Cald we'll
70 construct the line. the total cost of
which will not exceed 800.
As soon as enough money is subscrib-
ed those interested will organize a joint
stock company and proceed at once to
put in the line. The shares are placed
at $40 each and Mr.. Gwinn was positive
the required amount would be promptly
subscribed in Caldwell.
BY an arrangement which can be
made with the Central Lumber Co. the
line will pay net dividend Of ten per
cent. right from the start and without
doubt considerably more, as this is only
one firm among the large number who
will have occasion to patronize the line.
Everything connected with this pro-
ject has such favorable outlook that we
feel justified in predicting that the line
will be up and in operation within thir-
ty days from this writing, thus giving
Emmett telephone communication with
all important towns in this section OF
the State that have telephone connec-
tion. II is altogether likely that as
soon as the line is up the Payette peo-
pie will induce the Canal Company TO
put in phone on their line in Emmett.
which will tie Canyon county up in a net
work of telephones, thus placing this
county in the lead in the lead in the
matter Of quick communication facili-
ties as well as in all other things per-
tanning TO advancement and progress

Among those who have been foremost
in accomplishing what has already been
done in this direction we desire 10 men
