public spanking administered to six
youthful delinquents in Kearney, n.

ages ranged from 10 to II wears

Krebs sentenced each to "a good.

the boys and chose the spanking.
Chief of Police Tolen selected two
ablebodied policemen. Each took a
boy and placed him across his knee

W. I. Geissinger, a travelling sales
man of Braddock, Pa, tested the
honesty of postoffice employees a few
days age by sending a silver dollar
to his daughter through the mails.
He received a letter yesterday thank
ing him for the present. A number
of statesmen of foreign birth, in dis
cussing the United States postal mat

the employees. Geissinger resented
this statement an took steps to dis
prove it. He pasted a strip of white
paper on the back of the dollar and
wrote the address. A stamp was
placed on the reverse side. The
coin was accepted as merchandise.

1t is probable that we will have
three tickets in the field this fall II,
this state. The state law provides
that no name shall be on the ballot
more than once, the populists refuse

on either ticket are like hens teeth.

Sugar Duties On And Off.

By the removal Of the duty on su-
gar from Cuba the American people
are asked to consent to loss of
Treasury revenues amounting to
about $50, 900, 900 year and to
continue to pay an equivalent
amount in the class of internal rev.
enue imposts known as war taxes.
They are also asked to consent
that some millions of acres of farm
ing lands now profitably employed
in growing sugar beets shall be turn
ed back to the less profitable grow
ing of wheat and corn, because of
the free importation of Cuba's raw
sugar product. Some consolation
for these heavy sacrifices in behalf
of Cuba is held out to American
farmers and war tax payers IN the
shape of promise that the price OF
sugar will be reduced to American
consumers. Nobody believes this,
however. The sugar trust, which
has alIeady taken time by the fore
lock by arranging to control the Gu
ban sources of supply, is not going
to divide the profits with domestic
consumers. 1t is not built that way.
The price of sugar will remain the
same, duty or no duty on the Cuban
output. The only difference would
be that with the duty taken Oft the
government would lose $50, 900, 900
of annual revenue, the people would
continue to pay $50, 900, 900 year
in war taxes which could and should
be abolished, and the domestic sug-
ar producing interests in fifteen or
twenty states of the Union would be
driven out of business. And all for
the benefit of Havemeyer and the
Trust. Economist.
