of money to stop the process of get
ting the molasses out of the sugar in
time to escape being too light in color
for the purposes of this test. They
could make light brown sugar good
enough for the table for less money
than the dark brown the test demands,
because they would not have to have
such a force of men watching lest
too much molssses be whirled out in
the centrifugal mills.
But.
If the sugar goes lighter than No.
l6 Dutch standard, it has TO pay as
much duty as If chemically pure. double
refined, white as snow, and pressed in
to cubes for the table.
This test let's in the sugar that is
so dark it must be refined.
That which is unrefined. but good for
81 cooking and preserving purposes,
good for the table, good for the factory,
good for everything but the highest
table and chemical uses, it refuses to
let in except after paying the pro-
hibitory s1.95 a hundred of refined
sugar.
The reason for leaving the joker in
is simple. II is a trust reason, and
not a revenue reason or a peoples res-
son. II is not a peoples reason, be-
cause with the color test abolished, the
people could buy a great part of their
sugar from some one else than the
American Refining Company. 1t is not
a revenue reason, because with the
color test abolished, vast volume of
sugar would 90 direct to brokers and
jobbers from the tropical producers,
testing 90 degrees or higher, and light
brown or white paying the duties which
unre6ned sugar of the higher grades
would pay, and thus increasing the
revenues.
But the trust, with the abolishing of
the color test, would lose its monopoly
of taking the molssses out of sugar,
and its power to force the sugar mills
to leave the molasses in. But the in
terests of the sugar eaters, the fruit
growers, the Gamers and preservers,
are not with the trust. They are with
the demand for the abolition of the
obsolete and crooked Dutch color test.
And the Honorable Members and the
Distinguished Senators had far better
give half day to the study of this
very elementary, though colossal bit
of graft, than TO occupy a campaign
explaining their lack of interest to the
people.

MORE PAY AS YOU ENTERS

Beginning Sunday, May I6." paw
as-you-enter cars are running in Elev-
enth street. They are the first of that
type to be operated by the Washington
Railway and Electric Company. They
follow q thorough trial of the same
type by the Capital Traction Com
psny. Yet these new cars reproduce
every single defect so far developed in
the cars of the same style earlier put
on our streets.
Pay-as-you-enter cars of this type
are stufy and ill-arranged. They ap-
pear to be designed on-the theory that
the many shall stand and the few sit.
Every available inch is saved for stand
ing ROOM The seats are confined to
the sides of the car.
These defects were urged in these
columns as soon as it could be said the
type had been fairly tested. The direc-
tors of the Capital Traction Company
have now ordered cross-wise seats sub
stituted-thereby increasing the seat
ing capacity of the car and evincing in
results q genuine desire to accommo-
date the passenger. 1t must be re-
gsrded as unfortunate, in the light of
that experience, that the management
of the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company did not profit through
the experience of its competitor. 1t
viii now be interesting. as it was in
the case Of the Capital Traction, to
note if the change to cross-wise seats
viii be made voluntarily, or if it must
wait for direction from the Interstate
Comrorce Commission and be tainted
with an apparent unwillingness on the
part of the company.

Editor The Washington Times.
Sir: I have read with a great deal
or interest, and edihcation your "CSance
for Real Revision editorials, even
down to No. XXI, and have noted how
you have sweat great drops OF ink in
behalf or the poor consumer and
with what skill and vehemence you have
thrust your editorial stiletto into the
corporate anatomy or the Sugar trust"
but 1 fear, Mr.. Editor, that too many
of the consumers remember too well
the conditions OF the sugar business
and its prices before the trust got
hold of # to be much affected by what
may be said against the trust" now.
/ do not own a dollars worth OF sugar
stock, nor have 1 any more interest
in the Sugar trust" than I have in
any OF our great industries would
not even recognize the Sugar trust
II I were to meet II in the street. but
I do believe that II is the victim of a
great deal OF unmerlted hatred on the
part of many well-Dieaning people. And
do know that these same people buy
American refined sugar cheaper today
than they did before the trust was
formed. when competition was not only
plentiful, but destructive.
There is widespread impression that
trusts result In unreasonable prices.
through which the many are taxed for
the benefit of the few, and It may be
profitable 20 inquire how far this inn
preston IS confirmed by tine facts.
Three years before the trust" was
formed. twelve sugar refneries failed.
throwing thousands OF operatives out or
employment. To stem this destructive
tide, brought on by too much competi-
ton, nine refineries consolidated TO form
the trust" and these nine refneries
were owned by twenty-seven partners;
now the trust" representing these nine
refineries has over 200 partners in
the form Of stockholders. ard how have
the CONSUMERS" Jared at its hands?
With your kind permission, will give
you the prices per pound Of raw cen
trifugals, refined. and the difference be-
tween the two. for nine years before the
trust was formed, for nine years
after its formation, and for ten years
after the passage of the Dingley bill,
namely:
From 1879 to 1SS7-Raw. 6.43 cents; re-
fined, 7.9s cents: difference. 1.55 cents.
From 1893 to 1S96-Ra-w. 484 cents; re-
fined. 5.33 cents; difference, .s8 cent.
From 1897 to 1906-Raw, 4.0l cents; re-
fined. 484 cents: difference. 50 cent.
Now. Mr. Editor, these authentic Gov
ernnent statistics show not only that
that trust has been a benefit TO the
consumer" but that the Dingley tariff
is not added to the cost price of sugar,
and so long as the trust" has TO de-
pend upon a fraction OF cent for its
profits, and we can buy twenty pounds
Of sugar for a dollar we ought to be
satisfied. This constant agitation has
cost the CONSUMERS more than all the
exactions of the trusts because the
real .srobber''-the -etailer-puts up
prices on the slightest preteXt, and
ascribes the cause 20 the trusts"

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR REAL
REVISION. NO. XXIH.

To the Honorable Member or the
distinguished Senator in whose hands
the people have placed the prices of
their food, drink, and clothing for
years to come, and on whose conscience
the burden of the responsibility NAV
rest never so lightly, we beg leave
once more to state, firmly and conf
IDENTIFY this important fact:
The joker in the sugar schedule is to
be found in the words Not above No.
l6 Dutch standard in coIor.n
We do not expect the Honorable
Member or the Distinguished Senator
TO take our word for it. We expect him
TO use that reason with which God mas
SO richly endowed him-or he would
nc< be a Distinguished Senator or an
Honorable Member.
- Let him inquire as TO the reason
of keeping in the law this Dutch color
test In sugar. He will find that it is
not test Of the purity If sugar; for
there are sugars that have more than
IS per cent of impurities which are
lighter in color than the No. l6 Dutch
standard, and there are those which
have less than per cent of impurities
THAI are darker. And he will find no
less an authority than DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley saying that the Dutch color test
IL sntiquated, obsolete, unscientific, and
absurd, and that it is a pitiable sight
for great nation like the United
states TO place its greatest revenue
producing duty in the hands of ire
sponsible sugar brokers at Rotterdam
and Amsterdam-or words TO that ef-
feet.
And when he finds that there is no
mercantile, trade, scientific or open
reason for keeping these curious old
words in the bill, let him seek for the
political and secret reasons.
Let him look carefully and prayer.
fully; for his constituents will look.
and his vote here, if the color test be-
comes a thing to vote upon, will be a
great asset or a great liability when
he goes before any instructed and edu-
Gated constituency to render an account
of his stewardship of their food and
clothing and shelter. Once made an
issue, the agitation to get rid of the
color test viii go on. The Honorable
Member or the Distinguished Senator
will not be able with very good eoun-
tenance TO claim ignorance. Ignorance
has been quite general on this matter
but before the sugar schedule is dis
posed Of there will be none except vol
untary ignorance.
If the Distinguished Senator or the
Honorable Member will visit any good
sugar mill which sends its outturn tc
the United States past the doors OF
the custom house where the Sugar trust
has had for so long cogged scales on
which TO weigh it, he will find the man
sgement of the mill careful to keeT
his sugar dark in color-snot above No
