PUSH FIGHT ON CUBA.
Sugar Men Carry War Into House
 Committee.

From Washington to Chicago Chronicle.
 The fight over the attempt of the ad- ministration to secure reciprocal com merciaI relations for Cuba IS becoming more bitter and ugly in Its general Characteristics every day. The House Committee on Ways and Means began series of hearings on the subject thls morning and the beet sugar loopy IS re ioicing because F.. F. Atkins or Boston; a stockholder of the sugar trust. testlned tbat n reduction of the Dingley duties anplied to Cuban sugar would not aiiect the price of sugar. because sugar prices arc made at Homburg, Germany. MT Atkins admitted that he owned 44'o'O acres of Cuban sugar lands.
 The Cuban industries wee represented hefore the Committee by Messrs. Place. Mendoza, Dumois and Francke, choseh by commercial organizations Tn various narts of the island MT. Atkins spoke for the American interests engaged Tn sugar production in Cuba. William Hay wood represented the Hawaiian sugar nlanters and Henry T. OXnard appeared for the domestic beet sugar interests: The tobacco and other interests affected by Cuban production also were well rep resented,
 Chairman Payne announced that the Committee desired to be informed as to the effect of reciprocity both on Cuba and on the people os the United States MT. Atkins made the opening statement in behalf of reciprocity. He spoke or the enormous overproduction of sugar throughout the world, amounting to about l. 500.00O tons. which had resulted in a crisis in the industry. European coun- tries had met this by bounties so that the German producer. by means or a bounty, was able to sell sugar at half a cent a pound below it's cost of production; The cost of production in Cuba was 2G cents pound. which was somewhat above the selling price.

PREsIDENT's SOUTHERN TRIP
Charleston Will Be the Only City
 Visited by the Executive.

Washington, Jan. 17.-Mayor Smythe, ex-Mayor Ficken and J. c. Hemphill, representing the Charleston Exposition authorities, yesterday called on the Pres ident and today had an extended confer ence with Secretary Cortelyou regarding the arrangements for the Presidents trip to the Charleston Exposition.
 While the plans as yet are entirely pro- visional, it is understood that the Presi- dent and party probably will leave Wash ington so as to reach Charleston Tues day afternoon or evening. February Il. Wednesday, the 12th, will be spent in Charleston A program for that day is to be prepared by the Charleston commit tee.
 The President, returning, will leave Charleston late on the evening of the 12th or the morning of the 18th. The trip will be made direct to Charleston and return as the Presidents official duties will pre- vent his being away from Washington for a longer period than that allotted for this trip. Although cordial invitations have been received to visit Savannah. Att lanta and other points, the President has found it impossible to accept them.
 The personnel of the party probably will be: The President, Mrs. Roosevelt, Miss Roosevelt. Miss Carew, A. K Oracle, and four or five members of the Cabinet. It al is pogsib'e some of the ladies of the Cabinet may be of the party.

URGED TO PAY POLL TAX.
Congressman Bankhead Seeks to
 Counteract Prevailing Apathy.

Congressman John H. Bankhead of the Sixth District is alive to the apparent apathy of the white men towards naying poll tax. and Is endeavoring to influence those liable to the tax to pay up before they are disfranchised. MT. Bankhead has mailed copy of the following let ter to every beat committeeman in his District;
 Washington, January 15 1902. My Fellow Demo crat:
 1ou will, l am sure, pardon me for seeking to further impress upon you, for tue good of the Democratic party. the absolute necessity for every Democrat between the ages of 2l and 45 years to nay his poll tax before the first day of February. this year. 1902. Every one be- tween those ages who fails to pay this tax of $1.50. all of which goes to the pub lie schools. before February 1, will dis franchise himself; he cannot take part in primary nor vote in any election I beg you to appoint two or three of the best men in your beat to visit every Democrat who is liable to poll tax and urge him to pay it and thereby preserve the right to vote.
 This is of the utmost possible import ance.
 Truly your friend.
 J. H. Bankhead.

THE NEW TAMMANY.

People all over the country, Demo- crats especially, are watching the new leader of Tammany, Lewis Nixon, who took charge of that famous political or ganization a few days ago. The fact that he is a Virginian adds to the in terest of the occasion for 1t Is felt that a Democrat from that old State must necessarily effect a revolution In what had become one of the most corrupt political organizations In the Union.
 The wonderful power and influence of Tammany have been notorious for years. There have been times in it's history, as in 1893. when it absolutely controlled every office and position in New York City, and it's influence in more than one election, State and National, has been a determining factor in the result. With such power, practically in the hands of one man, it is not surprising that it should become arrogant. overbearing and eventually corrupt. It was time for a change of both men and methods and the outcome of that change will be closely watched.
 
 indicates that he is determined to rein state the organization in the confidence of the Democrats of the country and make it a political power to be felt for the good it will do instead of a ring to reward friends. punish enemies and con- trol political or personal tools. Two of his announcements are especially signi- to wholesale system of enlisting young men into the organization, and that every thing shall be open and above board. He makes the plainly expressed and uncon- ditional pledge that the public shall be informed of everything that is being done. or. as he expresses it: Whatever is done or attempted the public will be fully and freely informed of it."
 That is an excellent resolution. For ways that are dark" Tammany has of late years been famous. It's ways have been as silent and its blows as secret and effective as anything in the old days of the Spanish Inquisition. and its ability to control politics in New York City and State has been absolute. If the new chief rids the organization of it's un- worthy and disreputable members and puts all power into the hands of honest men he will do a great work, With an honest leadership working openly for honest politics and sound Democracy the organization will place the State in the Democratic column beyond the power of the Republicans to change it.
 And in this connection 1t is of interest to know what the State Democracy will do. David B. Hill is fast becoming, if he is not already, the leader of the Democracy outside of the city, and his future course will be of interest and i'm portance. If MT. Nixon carries out his promises, and then If he and MT. Hin work in unison and harmony they will form a combination absolutely invinci- ble so far as that State Is concerned If they antagonize each other Mir. Hill will be the loser. With an honestly con ducted and united Tammany against him no Democrat can carry the State of New York and Mir Hill will probably recoG- nize and be governed by that Knowledge,

The Birmingham Ledger is talking blackberries and we join 1t. There are few better fruits to be found and the beauty of it is that they grow, as simon Suggs expressed 1t. "spontenaciously" all over the woods and old fields and along the road side. Cultivation improves them. as it does all other fruit but the wild ones are good and very good. If all that are grown within two miles of Montgomery were utilized it would keep thousands of dollars at home that now go abroad. besides making a thoroughly wholesome and toothsome addition to the family table. By all means let's utilize our own blessings.

The New York World Yf Tuesday gives a graphic illustration of the manner in which taxes on personal property are not collected in that city. After a mans personally has been assessed he is given an opportunity to swear off as much of 1t as he chooses, apparently. One result of this is shown in the figures for 1901, where the personal taxes assessed amounted, in round numbers to $3324,- 0eO 900, and the amount confirmed" after the swearing off was due was $j50 0O0, GOO In other words. for every dollar which was confined six dollars had been as- sessed.

prices a considerable part of this would not be harvested. The effect would be serious loss to the planters. The loss to labor, he thought, was likely to lead to disturbances.
 Mir. Atkins said 50 per cent reduction of duties was desired on the various large products of the island, but in re- sponge to inquiries from Mir. Payne he said that the sugar men felt they should have a 100 per cent reduction. Opposi- ton to reciprocity, he said. came from the domestic beet sugar industry, the Hawaiian planters and the sugar interests of Porto Rico and Louisiana.
 Aside from the advantage of reciprocity to Cuba, MT. Atkins maintained that 1t would be of material advantage to the United States, including a reduction Tn the price of sugar to the people.
