General interest expressed in the sugar trade
this city yesterday in the statement Of Secretary
Wright Of the War Department that he was ready
to fight for a reduction in the tariff on sugar from
the Philippines Although there were those who
said that it than just 10 the phil
ppines to allow their sugar to come m at re-
duced rate OF duty free. as is the case with
sugar from Porto Rico and Hawaii, the opinion
seemed to prevail that il would make no difference
with the price in this country.
The general rate paid for sugar imported into
this country is 294 hundred sugar~fror1 Porto
Rico and Hawaii costs much sugar from Java
Barbados, but the money saved in iinporfstions
from Porto Rico and Hawaii goes to the planters
in those countries This is because the supply OF
sugar from these places Is small that there IS no
difficulty selling It all at the market rate
To reduce the duty Philippine sugar or TO allow
it to come in free would. OF course greatly enceur-
age the production OF sugar in those islands ana
might in time result In the production Of so much

P J. Smith of Smith & schtpper the agents OF

that the present duties sugar are entirely too
high to be fair to the country in general, and
should be reduced or removed entirely. The pres

SOME OBSERVATIONS.

There are two ways OF doing good,
the rampant, rip-roaring way, and the
quiet conservative way. Between these
there are all sorts of shades and de-
grees. But every one is familiar with
those who represent the two kinds,
for they fix themselves indelibly up
ION our minds wherever we go. Too
often they are in antagonism. The
plunging iconoclast, impatient of de-
lay, is filled with contempt for the man
who seems to lag in the work of life.
The plodder is filled with disnfay and
distrust of the efforts of the man who
is in hurry and cares not what he
may destroy in his onward path. The
conservative man suspects the motives
of the man who breaks his way as he
goes, and the air is flld with the
noise of combat between those who
are seeking to better themselves and
their Observation-Disclosures Times.

tural resources of the land, such as
ivory, ginger, coffee. tropical fruits,
mahogany and the palm and bamboo
products
AS indicating the need of industrial
development, the ENJOYS stated that
none of the natural resources of the
country could at present be profitably
marketed further in the interior than
from thirty-five to forty miles be-
cause of the enormous cost of trans
portation. They stated the country
needed railroads, steamboat transport
tation and industrial manufactures,
all of which would mean immediate
profits to the investor.
In speaking of the internal affairs of
their land, the ENJOYS asserted that
though their government had not made
any vast strides toward national inn
provement, the country and purposes
of the founders of the republic had
not been q failure. All NEEDED now
was capital to drive them further on
the path of advancement. They stat
ed that one-fourth of the public re-
venue was devoted to education and
the civilization of the aborigines, both
meeting with pronounced success.
The ENJOYS ended by making earnest
pleas for more material interest in
their country on the part of all Anne
/ ricans, concerted efforts that they
might take the fullest advantage of in
ternal business opportunities offered
and divert the foreign trade of the
! country, controlled at present by the
English, Germans, Dutch and Portu-
guese.
They stated they turned to America,
their mother country, for the material
aid so much needed, for the paternal
interest she has shown the country in
the past and for the interest they
hoped would be aroused in the future,
and, lastly, with the hope of gradually
stamping out and curtailing the en-
croachments of European powers,
which have been increasing steadily
year after year.
