SENATOR jim SMITH, who represents
the race tracks of New Jersey in the
senate. pumped fat denial in the first
Instance to the investigating committee
that he had speculated in sugars. Some
testimony came in that enlivened
Smiths memory, and he went again to
the committee and admitted that he had
taken thousand shares in January or
February. As the trust had had its
stock knocked down to SO at that time by
the action of the house, it was as plain
as the nose on Mr.. Smiths face to him
that the stocks would go up jumping
the scale if few Democrats in the SEN
ate could make fight for differential.
The Jersey senators do these things
queerly though. Mcpherson leaves
telegraphic order for sugars on his
table and servant girl sends it, unbe-
knownst to the senator. to his broker.
Smith commits his order to a man he
did not know. but who was "great
friend of personal friend of mine." 1t
is getting clearer how it comes that
''some are senators because they are
rich and some are rich because they are
senator's"

SUGAR MYsrIFIoATIONs.

1t is discouraging task to try to find
out just how much tax aud how much
protection there is in the proposed sugar
schedules. 1t is, however, not any more
intricate and confusing than are the
rates on other articles where they are
compounded of ad valorem and specific.
The whole system is cunningly devised
to prevent exact and accurate computa-
tons being made. the purpose being to
render as obscure as possible the exc
tions permitted and covered by the Jug
CLING Of rates.
1t would seem as if straight 40 per
cent Oh sugar was a simple thing, and
covered no protection to the trust, but
those who are skilled in the sugar bust
ness, familiar with their differing quail
tiles and their differing degrees of
saccharine matter. find in this simple
and single tax chance for the refners
to get an advantage of the consumers.
The difficulty is increased by the con-
slant shifting of propositions and ulti-
matumS. and one has no sooner studied
out the effects of one couglomeration of
taxes, specific and ad valorem and diff
ferential, than he has to begin Oh an
other which has been conceded as a
basis of compromise.
The Warner-Harter proposition has
the morality Of being pure revenue
tax and should be adopted if We are to
have taxed sugar. 1t lays a specific tax
of one cent pound on all sugars test
ing 100 degrees of saccharine strength
and reduces the tax a hundreth of
cent a pound for each degree less
than 100. AS the value OF raw sugars
depends on their -saccharine strength
the tax would be adjusted to value by
this method.as we'll as by an ad valorem
duty. But it is probable that the sugar
trust will force the acceptance OF its
terms with some slight and more ap.
parent than real notifications, and no
one will ever know when he sweetens
his coffee or his whisky how much he
is also sweetening the profits of the
trust, and how much he is paying to-
wards the support of the government.
The analysis given in our Washington
dispatches yesterday, though prepared
by as able and accurate man as is Mr..
Schoenhof. will not aid the average
citizen i'll ascertaining how much he is
mulcted by the trust. A plague on the
whole mystifying system.

GROVER OR GoRMAN.
The Main Question Before the
Coming Democratic Convention.

Fergus Falls Journal.
The Democratic state central commit
tee had harmonious little time" at it's,
meeting in st. Paul Wednesday. It
seems that number of disappointed
officeseekers secured proxies. and when,
Daniel w. Lawler introduced a reSolu-.
ton indorsing President Cleveland's
letter on tire Wilson bill, they took ven-
geance OH the old man in regular Indian
fashion. Mr.. Lawler withdrew his res
olutlon, but later Secretary Smalley
forced it to vote with the result that it
was defeated by a vote of 16 to 3. At
this time Secretary Smalley Indignantly
resigned, and said it was the work of
the Doranites. 1t is safe to say that at
the coming state convention the main
question will be, shall Grover or Cor
man be Endorsed. The state central
committee also declared against fusion,
and, it is said. favor eX-Speaker Champ
lin for the slaughter at the coming cleo
ton.
