REPUBLICAN USURPATION.
Roosevelt Rejects Theory of tin
Peoples Sovereignty.

Peoples Sovereignty.
The theory of our constitution is that
all federal powers are delegated pow
ers and must originate in grants made
by the people alone, or, In the language
of the tenth amendment of the consti-
tuition, that "the powers lot delegated
to the United States by the constitu-
ton nor prohibited by it to the states
are reserved to the states respectively
or to the people," But President Roose-
Welt rejects this theory and despises
this constitutional provision. In his
speech at the dedication of the new
capitol at Harrisburg, Pa. Oct. i he
said:
"We need through executive action,
through legislation and through judi
cial Interpretation and construction of
law to increase the power Of the fed
eral government"
How can the power Of the federal
government be constitutionally in
creased through executive action, judi
cial Interpretation or congressional leg
islation? The only power which the
legislative, executive or judicial de-
partment Of this government possesses
or can honestly possess must come
through the action of the people alone.
Roosevelt's declaration is entirely IN
constitutional, and his acts in pursu,
ance of that declaration are usurpa.

A GRATEFUL CORPORATION
The Standard OIL Bank Praises the
Administration.

SAOhs
1t Is very natural that the National
City Bank Of New York in its October
review of United States securities and
government finance should praise Sec
rotary Shaw and pay high tribute to
the work of the treasury department.
1t would be %ungrateful Of the man
ayers of this Rockefeller corporation If
they did not acknowledge the benefits
that the Republican administration has
dealt out to them. They praise the is
sue of $30,000.oO0 of Panama bonds, al
though this Republican administration
Of the United States treasury had at
that time about $13O.OOO,OO0 of the
public money on deposit with the
Rockefeller and other favored national
banks, on which no interest was being
paid. This enabled these favored banks
money so kindly loaned them by the
treasury and at once to begin drawing
interest upon the bonds and then de-
post the bonds to increase their cur
rency circulation, which they could
also loan at the going rate Of interest.
In fact, most of the proceeds Of the
bonds, like the government deposits, at
once found their way to the Wall street
banks, drawn thither by the abnormal
~ high interest rates.
Nor does this conclude the benefits
and special advantages vouchsafed to
the national banks for which the
Rockefeller bank magnates eXtol the
| treasury management. for in the last
week of September S26,00O,OOO more Of
the peoples money was loaned to the
banks, and, although allotted to banks
all over the country, most Of it, by
reason Of the lack Of the necessary Sc
curities, found its way into the Rookie
Teller and other Wall street banks.
This is proved by the statement of the
New York Associated Banks for Oct. 6,
which reported $3O,479,2O0 of govern
ment money on deposit against So
$4,000 shown in the last week of AL
gust, a gain of over $20,OO0,0o0.
Many who read this will no doubt be
surprised that the Roosevelt admins
tration, which boasts of its anticorpora-
ton record, should thus favor the ma
tlonal banks at the expense of the PEG,
pie, but in addition to all these ia
vors the treasury lent the Wall street
banks during August and September
$35,972,0OO Of gold to facilitate the i'm,
portation Of gold. so that they would
not lose the interest on that amount
while the gold was in transit, and
100000 to a Boston bank for a like
purpose.
All this aid to the Wall street cor
porations and trust manipulators very
naturally brings forth high encomiums
from the Standard Oil bank, and nc
doubt the magnates of that giant cor
poration will return these favors by
ample contributions to the Republican
campaign funds to elect q Republican
congress, which proposes to "stand pat
and pass the hat" as Speaker Cannon
so euphoniously expressed it.

THE CUBAN QUESTION
Intimately Mixed Up With the
Tariff Tax on Sugar.
ENORMOUS PROFITS OF THE TRUST

The Sugar Duties Intended as n Sub
sidy to the Growers Virtually II
Subsidy to the Trust-The Tariff
Needs Revision to Protect the Amer
lean Consumer.
The sugar trust already has a soft
Epap, and if we annex Cuba it will
plumber the people Of more millions
unless the sacred tariff is revised. The
trust sells its refined sugar on the
basis Of the cost Of the raw sugar
and the tariff duty and profit added.
It buys most Of the raw sugar from
CUBA and on that pays the tariff duty,
less Il discount of 20 per cent, Of which
discount the trust gets at least ne-
half. The sugar from the Philippines
imported into the United States Is al
lowed a discount on the tariff duty Of
Is per cent, and Of this the trust gets
nearly all. The sugar imported from
Hawaii comes in free of duty, so that
any Hawaiian sugar the trust buys it
pays no duty upon. OF r. the price
Of sugar in Cuba and the Philippines is
somewhat increased by the discount on
the tariff duty. or, as in the case Of Ha-
vail and Porto Rico. by being admitted
free of duty. there Is a subsidy amount
ing to what the duty would be, to be
divided between the sugar grower and
the sugar trust.
The price of sugar in the United
States is fixed by the trust at just 4
little less than foreign refined sugar
can be imported for after paying
/ 95-10O cents per pound, which is the
tariff only on refined sugar. The tariff
on "a sugar ranges from 95-1W of a
cent a pound up to l $500 cents a
pound, according to quality, though
when it is pure enough to be assessed
at the higher duty it Is ranked as re-
fined sugar, and the duty Is 95-1OO
cents a pound. This difference in the
tariff duty between refined sugar and
enough raw sugar to produce the same
amount of refined sugar is the diff
| ferent1al" in the tariff duty In favor Of
| the trust. But the important matter to
| remember is that as long as any sugar
is taxed by the tariff all the sugar that
is imported free of duty and the sugar
that is imported at a discount on the
tariff duty are paid for by the people at
the same price as If 1t was refined
| sugar upon which the full duty had
been paid. The domestic ane sugar
grown in Louisiana and the beet sugar
produced in several states are all sold
at the highest price, so that virtually
| the tariff duty is a subsidy to the pro.
ducers.
If all the sugar that can be grown In
Cuba should be admitted free Of duty
and yet the tariff was maintained, the
price Of sugar would still be as high to
the American consumer as If the gov
eminent received the tariff tax on the
same, which In round numbers
amounts to $50, 100000 a year. Sc
there is an economic problem for the
people Of the United States to settle
In considering the question Of the an
nexation Of Cuba entirely apart from
the question of whether Cuba shall be
free. If the revenue now produced b!
the tariff tax on sugar is reduced o.
abolished, there will have to be some
thing else taxed to make up for thu
loss Of revenue from sugar.

The Tax Appeal Court has begun it's
s,ttings with fewer appeals from
assessment before it, than it ever had.
This is probably due in large part to
the fact that most of the possible ques-
tions that could arise under our present
revenue laws have been raised and
decided. Though this is true, there
seems no more real contentment with
our revenue laws than there ever was
Revenue laws are most difficult legis-
lation. II the general dissatisfac-
ton which prevails here, as everywhere
with revenue laws arouses the spirit
of change and revision, it is to be hop
ed that the revision will only be under
taken after the most thorough study of
tn whole subject. A commission for
this purpose, if composed of men who
would devote effort to the study and
give time sufficient for it, ought to be
able to make a report of real value.
