SUGAR MIGHT BE CHEAPER.
Suggested National Policy that
Would Reduce the Price.

Suggested National Policy that
Would Reduce the Price.
Including Cuba, whose interest il
vital, four different groups are con-
cerned by the American sugar situa-
ton. There are (1) the American gov.
eminent, which receives little moro
than $50,0OO,0OO a year In revenue
from the tariff on sugar; (2) our do
nestle and our insular producers, to
whom that tariff Is direct benefit to
the extent Of about $5O,OOO,OOO a year,
(3) the consumer, who Is interested in
lower prices, and (4) the Cubans, who
are so largely dependent upon the
American market for their livelihood
In an article in the Information ed
ward f. Atkins of Boston, the owner
of large plantation in Cuba, works
out this problem along an interesting
and probably correct line.
With general assumption of the
continuance Of present political and
fiscal conditions Mr.. Atkins says:
ITO all appearances our importations
of foreign sugar, other than Cuban, will
soon end and from that time, II do
nestle and Cuban production keeps
pace with increased consumption, as ID
anticipated, a differential to Cuba
would protect her against other coun-
tries and reduce cost to consumers In
the United States" He holds that the
protection Of even the Cuban rate
(about 1.35 cents a pound) now gives
the domestic sugar producers 80 large
margin Of profit that they can well
afford to drop prices below Cuba's cost
in order to market their goods" he
claims that in the almost certain event
Of the reduction Of competition to our
domestic product and the Cuban prod
uct very material reduction could b
made in the present Dingley rate.
Should that be done two results
should follow: There should be reduc-
ton in selling prices and important In
crease in consumption. The initial loss
Of revenue to the government would
soon be offset by increase In imports
from Cuba. Increased demand should
stimulate domestic production. The
Dingley rate, practically a maximum
rate, would keep out the sugar of other
countries If Cuba were given a differ
entail, or what might be regarded az
minimum rate. This differential
would virtually assure to Cuba a mar
ket for her product and so divide the
market between her output and our
domestic supply.
The argument Is certainly worth q
careful consideration by the authori-
ties.-New York Sun.

OUTLINE DEFENSE OF HAYWOOD
Richardson and His Associates VIII
Set Forth Counter Plot,

KlCnafoSon ana his associates VIII
Set Forth Counter Plot.
Boise, Idaho, June 17.-That Orchard
was a wonderful witness cannot be
denied and that all the cross-question-
ing of Richardson only helped to
strengthen the testimony of the state
is also true, but for all this there is
nothing but optimism expressed by
Haywood's legal regiment. in the cele-
brated case on trial here. So far
these men haze been purely on the de-
| fensive. Next week they expect to
carry the war into Africa and they
pi omise a sensational campaign.
The star witnesses will be put for
| ward by the defense and the promise
is made that their testimony will be
TO less alient than that of Orchard
himself One of those men will be
Haywood and the other Steve Adams,
although Adams was first listed as a
witness for the state. He made con-
fesison corroborating Orchards story.
| Then as soon as, he got an attorney,
| he repudiated this statement abso-
lutely, declaring it was eXtorted from
him by Detective MCFARLAND, through
threats and promises. Immediately aft
er he was taken to Wallace, Idaho, and
Fred Tyler. The jury disagreed, stand
ing seven for conviction to five for
acquittal. Detective Mcfarland, how
ever, seems determined to have his
point if possible and it has been an
nounced that Adams will be taken to
Telluride, Colo, for trial for the muir
der of Collins, superintendent of the
Smuggler Union mine.
| Adams takes his situation philosoph-
ica9ly. He feels that every public Of
ficial's hand is against him and that
the officers are determined to have
him dance on the end of rope in one
state or another, he docs not give a
-, but he will give them run fol
their money before they complete the
Job"
1t was decided that Mr.. Darrow will
make the opening statement for the
defense on Wednesday, and immediate
ly after the work of interrogating the
$50 witnesses called in Haywoods' be
half will be begun.
1--WE intend to uncover this bloody
trail which the mineowners have left
Throughout the entire region. The jury
heard this man Naylor take the stant
and recite how the militia had sho1
up miners headquarters at Victor
how he had deported men without re
gard to their legal rights; how min
ers had been openly slain and theil
murderers protected by the mineown
ers' association, and we will show be
fore this trial ends the reason thu
Pinkertons and the mineowners want
ed Haywood, Meyer and Pettibon'
hanged and Orchard, the self-confesset
murderer of score of men, set free.
This statement was made by one o
the leaders of the defense.

Chicago Stock Yard Strike.

Chicago-Peace in the stockyards is
a, certainty. The teamsters' joint coun-
Gil and later the packing house team
sters' union voted to accept the offer
made by the packing house employees
to arbitrate the demands of the
drivers. The men were in session six
hours before this decision was reach
ed. For time it appeared as if the
packers proposition would be refused.
The conservative element prevailed,
however, and ON the final vote big
majority favored arbitration.

Oyster Bay, June 17.-President
Roosevelt has referred to Charles
F. Neill commissioner of labor, with
which have been made to him by wire
and mail to intervene to prevent the
threatened telegraphers' strike. The
position is taken that no emergency
exists such as obtained at the time the
president interviewed in the anthracite
coal strike, but, on the contrary the
situation presented is one where &C
ton by the government, if taken at all,
may properly be initiated and directed
by the bureau Of labor, of which Mr..
Neill is the head.
Attention is called to the fact that
Mr.. Neill has on his own motion acted
with more or less success in several
recent strikes simply by making an in.
vestigation and bringing to light the
salient facts in the controversies, his
reports being the basis on which set
tlement was later reached. Whether
he will feel justified in pursuing the
same course in the present instance is
not commented on here, as the presi'
dent has given Mr.. Neill no intimation
of any kind.

Morning.
But who the melodies of morn can tellf
The wild brook babbling down the
mountain side?
The lowing herd; the sheepfold's simple
bell;
The pipe of early shepherd, dim de-
serted
In the lone valley, echoing far and wide
The clamorous horn along the cli6
above: Il
The hollow murmur Of the ocean tide; ~
The hum Of bees, the linnet's lay OF
love,
And the full choir that wakes the uni
versal grove.
The cottage ours at early pilgrim bark
Crowned with her pail the tripping
milkmaid sings; 80
The whistling plowman stalks aasld; and
bark
Down the rough slope the ponderous
wagon rings;
Through rustling corn the hare astonished
springs;
Slow tolls the village clock the drowsy
hour;
The partridge bursts away on whirrins
wings;
Deep mourns the turtle in sequestered
bower,
And shrill lark carols clear from her
aerial tower.

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,

Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the

The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept

We set to-day a votive stone,
That memory may their deed redeem,

To die, or leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
