dragged him up and down the hill until
the boy bled from the nose and mouth,
Harris also tied Anderson to q tele-

in bitter cold weather for moro than
three hours. I have seen Harris string

THE CRACKING OF PAINT.
Property Owners Can Save Money
by Learning the Cause.

Do you know what il wrong when
paint peels. or cracks, or otherwise
necessitates premature re-painting?
Well, sometimes 1t hasn't been
properly applied-the surface being
damp or there being too much turpen-
tine or too much drier.
But, nine times out Of ten, the
trouble is caused by adulterated
white lead.
To avoid all such trouble. every
houseowner should know in a general
dition to receive paint. what kind Of
primer and finishing coats different
surfaces require. and how to avoid
aduiteration in materials.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO RE.
MOVE DUTY ON REFINED
SUGAR.
PARTY LINES IGNORED
RESOLUTIONS OF INQUIRY INTRO.
DUcED BY SENATOR eUGoEN-
Helm AND OTHERS.

Washington.-Indic point to .
contest in the Senate over the sugar
schedule in the tariff bill. not only be-
cause of the proposed free admismsion
of 90 0tons annually from the Phil
ippines, but because certain Demo-
cratic senators plan to open up the
whole subject by introducing an amend
ment to remove the duty entirely from
refined sugar.
So far as the report of the finance
committee is concerned. the beet su-
gar pI oducers have little to fear, as the
whole sugar schedule has been re-
ferred to subcommittee OF Burrows.
Smoo. and Flint. representing Michi-
gan. Utah and California.
The American producers fear most
an attempt in debate to bring the so
called sugar trust to the foreground,
as the Democratic senators threaten.
The Democratic ranks will be broken.
however, as already the cane sugar
states have lined up with the beet su-
gar states.
Most of the big contest over the ta-
riff bill have been fought in the COM
mittees of the House and Senate. The
sugar question is proving different II
became known Thursday that Senator
Clay Of Georgia had prepared an
amendment toi the tariff bill that
strikes out all the differential duties.
the effect OF which is 81 admit refined
sugar free.
This amendment Ia said to have the
Endorsement OF the minority members
Of the finance committee.
Two sessions were held Thursday
by the subcommittee on sugar. at both
OF which the senators from the beet
sugar states were present. AT the
morning session the senators from
Louisiana Joined with their Republi-
can colleagues In asking for protection
for the sugar industry. The matter
which most alarms the American sugar
producers is the proposition to admit
3O0.0 900 gross tons annually OF free
Philippine sugar.
Ii was pointed out that the provis-
ion for admitting Philippine sugar Is
not sufficiently safeguarded to hold
the annual importations down to 300.-
900 tons, and that there Is nothing to
nlnueT tHe importation VI Vv".""V '"""
at half the established rate, or 1900
tons at three-fourths the established
rate. and other increases In like pro-
portions This could be accomplished
by the Philippine exporters forming
pool.
Resolutions OF inquiry to elicit facts
in relation to the sugar industry were
introduced Thursday by Senators Gug-
genheim Of Colorado. Carter OF Mon
tana and Smith OF Michigan. All were
adopted. The senators seek informa-
tion intended to show that the beet sti-
gar Industry needs further protection
and that In the pnd 1t means cheaper
sugar to consumers.
On the other hand. Senator Clay Is
preparing to show that the selling
price OF sugar in Hamburg and Lon
don is S2.7O per hundred as compared
with 1886 in New York. and that much
OF the difference is due to the existing
tariff OF S1.95 per hundred. Senators
taking this position will try to show
that beet sugar producing has not been
successful In this country.
