The Farmer and the Banquet

The Farmer and the Banquet
To the Editor Of the Los Angeles Her
aid: How may actual farmers will there
be at the Bryan banquet? This is not
intended as a growl of discomfort, fol-
when it comes to the real work in the
cause Of a true democracy the farmer
will still be heard to sing:
''I'll be dar, I'll be dar,
When the muster roll am calling,
I'll be dar, sure's yer born;
but 1t is rather an apology. We woule
like out farmers and our vicinity repre-
sented at the banquet, but to tell ths
truth we can't afford it and. Mr.. Editor

A difference of so cents is here appar-

will see that under the same conditions
as to cost of raw sugars TODAY tho
senate finance committee schedule gives
the refners 1.01 for working expenses
and profit, while the Wilson bill gives
him so cents.
The difference between $1.01 and so

than one-fifth of a cent per pound. The
consumption of sugar in the United
States for year will be about
4,500, 100000 pounds. At 81 cents

of the trust under the senate

The difference between the cost Of Ger
man sugar, 1884 without duty. and the
cost under the senate rate, $4S5, $1.M per
one hundred pounds, being the profit to
the trust, if trust sugar were sold to COM
pete with that refined in Germany This
is one cent per pound, and as the con-
sumption of sugar in the United States is
6S pounds per capita year. it adds So
cents per capita to the cost of living of
the whole population.
During the discussion of the bill in the
senate yesterday, Senator Stewart Of
Nevada asked Senator Allison of Iowa
whether the bin before the esmate gives
the refineries any more advantage than
the law now in force. To this Allison
replied:
1 have no doubt that excluding the
countervailing duty. this bill does not
give a greater advantage to the sugar
industry than the Wilson bill.
The report goes on to say that the
Iowa senator proceeded to make a
general statement" A wise man in his
place, in view of the facts, would make
his statement very general and would
earnestly wish that no one present
would know enough of the matter to ask
any questions that would be specific
The expert from whose work We have
quoted above says:
It will also be interesting to compare

Low priced articles are not
always cheapest. Closing out
and clearance sales are usually
made up of goods priced rs per-
cent above selling value and
double what they are worth.
The cut down does not make
them cheap, it's the advertise
ment. Inspection often proves
the quality. Our store has been
for years headquarters for good
values-it makes no difference
whether it is for a spool Of
thread or silk dress pattern
Once we have had q clearance
sale but it was to rid our shelves
of an accumulation of old goods.
They were sold for what they
were worth and the people were
satisfied with their bargains.
If we put new goods on our
shelves to-day and tomorrow
tell you that we would sell them
at prices below cost you would
imagine there was something
wrong in us or the goods. Our
prices are right SO are the goods.
