The acquisition of Cuba, Peurto
Rico and the Philippines will give
the United States a monopoly OF
the sugar production of the world.
The import duties alone ON sugar
costs the people of the United
States S45 ooo, 600 annually. This
one item is worthy of consideration
1t effects the economic question OF
government as well as finances OF
the people. The planters Of the
south will be concerned in this
subject. Their protection will be
removed by this acquisition. This
is only one question for the re.
publican administration to solve
in the settlement OF the war prob
lem. Many complications will
arise when territorial and CONNER
cial extension is fully considered.
With this new territory under the
control Of the influence and the
laws of the United States, sugar
production will take a place of i'm
portance right along with that of
wheat. corn and cotton In the
case of sugar there is less to fear
from competition than from any
other product. Beet sugar has
never successfully competed
against cane sugar except under
the stimulus of government
bouuties. The sugar question just
now becomes an international
economic question.

When the trade for office called

the republican party they readily

observed an effort to put in Office

and not the creatures of demagogy
OF barter either in party lines or
between leaders OF parties who did

Oh the silver question. One great
reason for this tendency was not
noted by that journal. The demo
Gratis have nothing left but silver
aud that is forlorn hope. Free
trade is AS dead as the old policy
OF secession. The war may bring
new issues but while the spirit OF
patriotism burns in every heart the
parties viii not divide on questions
of war policy. The falling in line
on silver at this time is a meek
submission TO the inevitable.
Every other tenet of modern
democracy is dead, aud silver is

Mr.. Stainton'S Election.

The Tribune in commenting on
the election of Mr.. Stanton to the
legislature aninadyerts upon the
blind partisauship Of the republi-
cans Of Nez Perez county. The
case in point illustrates the liberal
ity of republican voters. Mr..
Stanton is one of the Tribune staff
and that paper should be the last
TO -deprecate the voters and the
condition which honored him. He
is an example of a condition the
opposite of blind partisauship.
Mr.. Stainton's election was the re-
suit Of liberality, Of the exercise Of
the spirit Of independence Of party.
which marked the late election in
this county. IF ever the voters put
party prejudice in the back ground
it was on Nov. s. and the example
OF Mr.. Stainton's election is the
best possible illustration of that
fact.
Mr. Stainton's election over
either Of the republican candidates
who were the best men in the
party for the places is a very high
compliment to any young mau.
His republican friends unanimously
and unselhshly congratulate him.
One Of Lewiston's b.ightes. young
men has been fittingly honored.
The only unpleasant feature about
the celebration Of his victory is the
senile reflections of the Tribune
upon Mr.. Stainton's republican
friends.
