quite prominently in a recent dispute
in the Cotton States league. To help
Vieksburg beat Yazoo City out in the
first half of the season, Greenwood
sold" the pitcher TO Vicksburg,
When the first half ended, Greenwood
wanted McGehee back, but President
Lewis of the league and Secretary
Farrell ruled that ne had to stay with

Never before in the history of the
Western league has the pennant race
been so thrilling as this year. 1t is
a neck and neck run between four
clubs. Omaha and st. Joseph have
been alternating in the occupation of
the lead. Sioux City and Denver re-
main only a few points below these
might soon be in first place.
Zimmerman, of Chicago, has the
best batting average in the National
league, 1t is 1917. Meyers. of New
York, has second place, with an aver
age of 1881.
Johnny Dundee has got restless
again and will leave New York soon
on a long jaunt. First he will drop
down to New Orleans and meet a local
boy there the middle of August. Then
he will skip TO Los Angeles, where
he hopes to do battle with Kilbane
on Labor Day.
It seems almost impossible to be-
lieve, but the Boston Americans have
lost but four series out of twenty five
this season. Such a record has not
been made more than once or twice
before in the American league.

Fhe Price Of Sugar.

The wholesale orice of standard
granulated sugar in New York on the
day this item is written is SIS. 85 per
hundred pounds. One week ago today
the price was $5.75, one month ago t.
day the prices was $5. 45 and one year
ago, $4.6O. These figures are taken
from the weekly Statistical Sugar
Trade Journal, the ocffiial publication
of the sugar industry of the u. S.
Whether the sugar trust finds il
necessary to increase prices to reim-
burse itself for the stolen millions it
was forced to disgorge to the govern
mont. following the exposure of the
underweighing frauds, or whether the
increases are really justified by a
shortage of sugar production abroad.
is considered debatable question bv
many. But the fact that the whole
sale price of sugar in London averages
2 cents pound less than in New York
the year around, shows beyond question
the advantage in favor of the consum-
ers in the country where there is
neither sugar tariff nor a sugar
trust.

Ruined Again.

The sugar Industry in the United
States, according to the wall going
from protectionists, will be ruined"
by the bill removing the tax from
sugar, reducing the price to the ccr-
sumer approximately 2 cents a pound.
This, then, will be the fourth time the
industry will have been ruined, "
according to the protectionists-always
according to protectionists.
The standpatters said the industry
would be ruined when Porto Rico sug-
ar was admitted free. But it wasn't.
Then they said 1t would surely perish
when PHILIPPINE sugar was admitted
free and again when CUBAN sugar was
admitted.at reduced import: tax.
But during this time of "ruiD,
cane sugar production in this country
increased materially, and beet Sugar
production more than doubled.

Where Underwood Stands.

Chairman Underwood, of the Ways
anc Means committee was interrupted
in his speech against the sugar tax by
a Louisiana member. who inquired of
MIR Underwood what he anticipated
would happen to the sugar industry in
Louisiana if the tax was removed from
sugar. Mr.. Underwood replied frank
ly that he did not know what would
happen to the sugar industry of that
state. but hoped it would survive, as
it had done on previous occasions. He
added there was one thing he did
know. however. and that was that the
total production of sugar in Louisiana
was less than one-tenth of the entire
sugar consumption lin the United
States. and that ne did not believe in
the principle of taxing $4,000, coo
American citizens in order that COM
parative few sugar producers might
make an extra profit.
