The CAUCUS OF TIE TRUST SER


JANIS
The caucus Of Republican Senators
tried to hoodwink the public by reject
ing the sugar trust schedule. as the
esteemed Intelligencer. with unwilling
wisdom. called the Aldrich schedule;
but they simply made a schedule that
gives the trust scarcely less ''protec-
ton" than the old schedule gave it.
And the specializing Senator did not
fail to get in his work early. Long be-
fore the conclusions of the caucus were
made public thousands and tens of
thousands of shares were bought in
Wall street for Washington account.
1t is known that these buyers who got
in" at the right time made over four
millions out of the rise of over five and
one-half points that followed the pub
LEGATION of the Republican caucus's &C
ton. And nearly all of this early buy
ing was for Washington account"
Now nobody knew the action of the
caucus pending its publication, but the
Senators themselves engaged in the
caucus. and their friends Havemeyer.
Searles x Co. Hence. the inference is
plain as to who bought sugar stock in
Washington and cleared these millions.
II is frightfuuy humilating to every
honest American citizen. but the fact
remains as we have described it.
The caucus schedule abolished ad
valorem duties. but it retains the dis
elimination against countries that pay
export bounties. and allows the trust
an excessive differential between the
duties on raw sugar and those on re-
fined. Ii fixes the tax on raw sugar
testing above 70 degrees by the polari-
scope at one cent per pound. and three
hundredths OF a cent per pound extra
for every additional degree. while its
duty on refined sugar is 195 cents.
After carefully considering the various
factors involved. Mr.. John De Witt
Warner says Of this arrangement:
The total net protection given the Trust
on lis refining process viii range. for most
o. the rawS used between IS and So cents
per 100 pounds with a general average Of
about half a cent a pound. and pCSSibiN-
ties. as 90 large amount Of its business.
or f3r greater erential-this in addi-
ton 90 the amount gained by importation

into operation.
On an annual consumption of four
billion pounds, which will doubtless
soon be exceeded. according to the New
York Journal this would represent a
clear gift 70 the sugar trust, through
the agency Of the taxing power. of 500
100000 year, or half the amount the
government expected to collect from

means of the income tax. In addition

It is thoroughly we'll understood by
this time that the sugar trust needs
no protection whatever. By fixing the
tax on raw sugar at an amount equiva-
lent to that levied on refined, Congress
could put into the suffering national
treasury the s2O,OOO,OOO it is forcing

EWING BROS.
ALrGELn,s SUCCESSOR.

Ex-Governor Altgeld, of Illinois, has
been abused by Hanna's organs prob
ably more than any other public man;
the organs have even tried to make
him out a bank-wrecker and thlet.
because he was unfortunately involved
in the smash-up of the Globe Savings
Bank. but the worst they ever said OF
him has not been as bad as the truth
about Governor Altgeld's Republican
successor, Tanner.
Tanner is known as one of the most
notorious gamblers in Illinois, and IS
continually playing the Chicago
Board OF Trade, when not standing
in poker game. He is typical cor
rupt politician, graduate of the ma
chine and the obedient servant of the
trusts and corporations, who own him
and his party. But we will let the Re
publican Chicago Record speak or
Tanner and his latest infamy. "llli-
nois' shame is complete, says our con-
temporary The State has had Legis-
latures before which were lost to all
sense of decency but it remained for
John R. Tanner to lower the Governor
chair TO the basest level it has ever
reached Altgeld, whom Tanner pre-
sumed to despise-and Altgeld had his
faults-was far superior to the eXecu-
tive who has brought disgrace upon the
State. Oglesby, who as Governor We
toed bill similar in purport to the
Allen bill signed yesterday by Tanner,
must marvel that the chair he honored
has fallen into possession of one so
base. The name of Tanner may go
down in history but if so it will be IN
connection with measures suggesting
infamy. and not honor. Tannerism in
the future will be a term synonymous
with subserviency to Yerkesism, with
all the hateful significance which that
name carries to the people of this Com
monwealth. and especially to the peo-
pie of this municipality. In the battle
between INSCRIPTIONS wealth and the
Commonwealth, he has prostituted his
high office to the service of the same
master"
And this, mind you, is good Republi-
can testimony.

THE FUNNY OLD LADY.

The organic old lady of Fourteenth
street ceases grooming McKinley's
praises long enough to scold the Reg
lister for being so sacriligious and I'M
dignified as TO speak of him as the
little tin major" and of the lawless
buccaneer in the Speakers chair as
Big Bully Reed" The old lady thus
pipes her little lay and the old soul is
so amusing that we produce it in full:
Little Tin Major" and Big Bully
Reed are the dignifiel % terms in which
the Wheeling Register refers 20 the Pres
idsnt of the United States and the Speaker
of the National House OF representa- tlNeS.
This in a newspaper that boasts ii is the
leading exponent of a great party in this
State.
OF course. in this country of a free press
there is little limit 10 the right of an edi-
tor 10 be as undignified and to show as
little respect as his small mind can con-
ceive for the men who have been placed
in exalted positions as the sovereign PEG
pies representatives. and placed there by
the people themselves but intelligent
men. and men who admire dignity and
character in the public press, have but one
opinion of such editors.
We humbly beg the old lady's pardon
for hurting her feelings by thus allud-
ing to Boss Hanna's protege and to the
despotic tyrant and bully in the
Speakers chair. We had no notion
the old lady felt so deeply on the sub
ject
We really have no idea where the
sobriquet little tin major, originated,
but it fits the Hanna-made gentleman
in the White House so neatly that it
has stuck to him. 1t really isn't our
fault. AS for Tom Reed, an indignant
people, whose will he has outraged
continually ever since his advent in the
Speakers chair, are daily heaping him
with all sorts of approbrious epithets.
from car to bully, and they can find
none too opprobrious to suit.
All of which reminds us of the time
when Republican organs, the touchy
old lady of Fourteenth street included,
we believe, used TO refer to a certain
President of the United States as the
stuffed prophet"
In conclusion, we would inform the
fnicky old soul that the use of the in
terrogation point enclosed in parenthe-
sis to express doubt. is obsolete with
writer's of good English.
