SUGGESTIONS TO THE SUGAR
TRUST INVESTIGATORS.

The Sugar trust is going to be in
.vestigated by the Democratic House.
May we suggest few lines of inquiry
that might well be developed?
For one thing, it would be we'll TO
learn, from the books or from former
officials, how much the trust con-
tributed to the Republican campaign
fund of 1892.
Likewise, it would be interesting to
learn whether it gave 100000 or only
$25O,OOO to the Democratic campaign
in that year.
1t would be illuminating to have de-
veloped the exact part which John G,
Carlisle, while Secretary of the Treas
ury, took in getting a sugar schedule
framed exactly as the trust wanted it.
There was sworn testimony that Mr.
Carlisle wrote into the schedule, with
his own hands, words which peculiarly
served the purposes of the trust. The
printed report of the Lodge investi,
CATION of bribery charges will be
found interesting. If copies are
scarce, this newspaper will be glad to
provide one.
1t will also be found that, after Mr.
Carlisle ceased to be Secretary, he
was engaged as counsel for the trust
to secure from the Government refund
of duties paid on Porto Rican sugar
imported before it was determined
that that sugar must come In free.
The books of the trust will show
Just how much Mr.. Carlisle was paid
for this service. 1t was very liberia
compensation for a formal and nomi
nal service.
Former Senator James Smith, jr., oil
New Jersey, gave interesting testi'
mony before the Senate special com
mittee that investigated bribery
charges. He would be a proper person
to summon at this time. If a politi'
cal investigation is to be made, let us
have all kinds of politics.
These suggestions are made merely
with the purpose of aiding Mr.. Hard
wick's committee to be altogether fail
and unbiased in it's work. Republicans
as we'll as Democrats will be involved
plenty of them. For instance:
During the tariff session of 1905
Senator Burrows of Michigan present
ed on the Senate floor affidavits ant
letters from officers of beet sugal
companies in his State, declaring thai
the trust was in no wise interested
in their stock. These letters were reat
on the Senate floor, printed in thu
temporary Record, and some of then
dropped out of the permanent Record
Later, the trust in its annual repor
for 1910 admitted holding stock il
certain of these companies. 1nvestiga
ton of these circumstances woul'
shed some light on Republican suga
schedule making.
If Mr.. Hardwicks' committee want
more suggestions, they can be pro

MADERO AND THE FUTURE
OF MEXICO.

Francisco /. Madero is more than a
Mexican, more than a Latin-American.
He is proving himself cosmopolite, a
real world-citizen, with that breadth
and accuracy of view that tell at once
of an accurate understanding of his
countrymen and at the same time in
dicate an appreciation of the best in
stitutional development.
Madero has been a Fabius in the
field, content to be moderate, safe,
cautious. 1t has not always been easy,
for his followers have been of the
tropic-tempered race that loves the
spectacular and the dashing. Madero
has shown the quality which his
Anglo-Saxon education and culture has
superimposed upon the Latin founda,
ton.
Peace, not war, has been his pur,
pose in fighting. He has recognized
war as regrettable means to a desir'
able end. The glory of conflict has not
appealed to him. Yet he has beer
steadfast in misfortune, at once firm
against friends who would have had
him make too much concession ant
lose essential results and vigorous in
restraining those overZealous in his
cause who would have risked too much
for the sake of the spectacle. In vie
tory he has been as careful as he was
in fighting. For the sake of his coun
try, he has foresworn the satisfaction
that too many men would have de
manded, of succeeding at once the de
posed Diaz. He has accepted the lead
ership of de la Barra, and for the time
being stepped aside from both military
and civic position, in order that his
country might enter upon the securest
way to better order.
1t suggests no excuses of hero
worshiping alteration to say that thus
far Madero's course is in many ways
parallel to that of our own Washing
ton. 1t is evidence, too, of the basic
solidity of Mexican character that the
people are demonstrating keen, accurate
appreciation of the modest course OF
the insurrectionary leader. Madero will
very likely be called by his people tc
the presidency; but he is DESTROYS that
if that honor comes, it shall come in
such manner that there may be no sus
picion of employing the power or the
glamor which pertain to the victorious
military leader. Madero looks quite al
much the acute politician as he doei
the successful militarist; and beyond
that, we are likely to find in him thu
astute, far-sighted statesman.
Madero represents another forward
step for Mexico. Diaz led it in a lon,
series of advances, but he outlived hi
time, his usefulness, his capacity t,
progress with his times. A new ant
more modern man was needed, an
Madero appears to be that man.

PREACHER SCENTS /.
DANGER OF WAR IN
MEMORIAL TODEAD
The Rev. Mallalieu Says to
Praise Soldiers Too Law
ishly Leads Boys Astray.

Pointing out that the elaborate cele-
bration Of Memorial Day, with its praise
of the men who took the lives Of others
Is likely to result in the perpetuation Of
bloody battles, the Rev. Wilbur ". NAL
laIieu, in his sermon at Union Methodist
Episcopal Church, this morning told his
auditors that they should not glorify
war. He said they should do just the
opposite. and that the celebration Of
Memorial Day should be simply COM
memoration of the noble spirit which
led men to offer their lives. If need be,
for what they believed to be right.
There Is a danger that in giving praise
to war heroes we may be guilty Of
breeding the desire TO emulate those
who fought with their life blood said
the pastor. The glamour OF the SOL
der is apt to appeal and the horrors Of
war be perpetuated thereby.
Bloodthirsty Press.
"A bloodthirsty press is ever setting
somewhere a pretense for war. We
must be careful lest We ourselves be
plunged into war. We are now living
in an age when the dove of peace is clad
in heaviest armor. Peace prizes are Of
fered the most warlike interests. Peo-
pie who assert they want peace are most
forward in securing armament"
In his memorial sermon, the Rev. Mr..
Mallalieu said that peace has her bat
ties and loss Of souls equally as great
as war.
Poverty today presents a worse form
Of slavery than that which caused the
civil war;" he said. Millions of our
people are within one week Of pauper-
ism. A degradation worse than that
caused by slavery comes from our fac
tory systems. and the irony of it is
these people are politically free to Leave
such conditions. But while they are
politically free, they are not economic
ally free. They cannot afford to
change"
Tragedies of Peace.
The Rev. Mr.. MaIlalieu said 1t is diff
ficult to see the tragedies of peace, but
easy to see those of war when blood is
being shed. He cited several of the
problems of this age Of peace that he
considers as serious as those that re-
suited in bloodshed before
This afternoon at 4:30 o'clock services
will be held at Washington Barracks
wharf for the soldiers, sailors, and ma
rines who lost their lives while in the
service of their country. Speeches will
be made by a number of prominent per-
sons, and the Dewey Naval Camp and
the Spanish war auxiliaries will float a
floral boat down the Potomac. The En-
gtneer Band will furnish the music.
