dropped OF the cabin roof.
His promptness had bred q mOmen

voice began to roar commands; but in

shock Darlington had found and with.
drawn the wooden peg that fastened
the cabin door. He had scarcely done

and again he called to them to escape
by the skifr. The fret of the current
had grown steadily and from beneath
the wide-fiung branches OF the trees

and saw the blunt bow swing of to
the south az they were plunged into
the black shore shadows.
But what he did not see was a big
muscular hand which had thrust itself
out OF the impcnetrable gloom and
clutched the side OF the keel boat. Co
incident with this there arose q per
feet babel of voices. high.pitched and
shrill.
"Sho'-I bet it's him! Sho'--it's I'm

Darlington cast a hurried glance In
the direction OF these sounds. There
between the boat and the shore the
dim outline OF a raft was taking shape.

pale gray smoke that faded from be.

Slosson uttered a cry OF terror. He

the belief that this was the ghost OF

Meanwhile Mr.. C~avendish, whose

equivalent to setting his triggers;
then he launched himself nimbly and
with enthusiasm into the thick OF the
fight. II was Mr.. Bunker's unfortu-

The light from the Cavendish
hearth continued to brighten the
scene, for Polly was recklessly sac

her behavior was in every way worthy

found time to call to Betty and Han

An instant later Betty and Hanni

Cavendishes fiocking about them. Mr.
Yancy's quest OF his nevvy had taker
an enduring hold on their imagina

their one vital topic. and the fight be

The bottom has fallen out of the

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 consump-
ton in the United States, and
that he did not believe in the prin-
ciple of taxing 93,000,000 Ameri-
can citizens in order that COM
parative few sugar producers
might make an extra profit.
THE PRICE OF SUGAR
The Wholesale price of standard
granulated sugar in New York on
the day this item is written is
lS5 45 per one hundred pounds.
One week ago today the price was
S5.95, one month ago today S.. 45
and one year ago, $3.50, These
figures are taken from the Weekly
Statistical Sugar Trade Journal,
the official publication of the
sugar industry of the u. S.
Whether the sugar trust finds it
necessary to increase prices to re-
imburse itself for the stolen mill
ions it was forced to disgorge to
the government, following the ex-
posure of the underweighing
frauds, or whether the increases
are really justified by a shortage
Of sugar production abroad, is
considered a debatable question
by many. But the fact that the
Wholesale price of sugar in Lon
don averages 2 cents pound less
than in New York the year around
shows beyond question the advan-
tage in favor of the consumers in
the country where there is neither
a sugar tariff nor sugar trust
TWO SUGAR TRUST CHECKS.
When the bill to repeal the tax
on sugar was up for discussion in
the House, Asher Q. Kinds OF
Maine arose and loudly proclaim
ed that certain ledger in the Of
flee Of the sugar trust in New York
would show that the trust had sent
checks to the campaign managers
of both the Democratic and Re-
publican parties. Mr.. Hardwick
of Georgia replied. He said that
what Mr.. Kinds stated was true,
but that the same book also
showed that the check which had
been sent to the Democratic head
! quarters had been returned un-
cashed, whereas the one sent to
the Republicans had been cashed
and spent.

Washington Correspondence.
BY CLYDE H. TAyENNER.


WASHINGTON, March 22nd.-Is
it just that the men who own 80
per cent of the wealth Of the
United States should shoulder but
10 per cent of the burden of taxa
tion for running the government?
The Democratic House of Rep
resentatives believe that it is not,
and hence the passage of the ex-
cise-income, tax bill which levies
a tax of 1 per cent. on incomes in
excess OF $4,000 a year.
This does not mean that all per-
sons having more than 1000 must
pay tax on the excess Of that
sum. 1t means that those who
have an annual "income" of more
than $4,000 must pay the | per
cent on the excess of $4,000 year
or to have capitalized sum of
about 100000 before he is called
upon to pay per cent. tax on that
portion in excess of $1,000,
This is class legislation, the
standpatters and protectionists
say.
They were never heard to COM
plain, however, of the existing
class legislation which permits
the burden Of federal taxation to
fall entirely upon the shoulders
Of the masses, taxing the average
man, woman and child on every
stitch of clothing they wear and
everything else they must have in
order to live, while permitting all
forms Of wealth to go untaxed.
The masses of the people pro-
duce the wealth, and by legislative
advantage few get possession of
1t, and now these few object to the
transfer of wealth of even the
amount of revenue derived from
the taxation Of sugar, but one Of
the five hundred things ON which
q tariff is levied. They would
prefer that the government con-
tinue to tax sugar instead Of
wealth, because they eat no more
sugar than the section hand or the
mill worker and therefore under
the present system are compelled
to pay no greater tax to the feder-
al government than does tho poor
est man. These facts may read
strange, but they are facts, and
will not be contradicted.
The United States is practically
the only one Of the great nations
today that raises practically allits

RUINED AGAIN!

The sugar industry in the United
States, according to the wall GO
ing up from proteotionists, will be
"ruined" by the bill removing the
tax from sugar, reducing the price
to the consumer approximately 2
cents a pound. This, then will be
the fourth time the industry will
have been ruined" according to
protectionists- according
to protectionists.
The standpatters said the indus
try would be ruined when Porto
Rico sugar was admitted free.
Butsit wasn't. Then they said it
would surely perish when Phili-
pine sugar was admitted free, and
again when Cuban sugar was adj
mitted at a reduced import tax.
But during this time of "ruin"
cane sugar production in this
country increased materially, and
beet~sugar production more than
doubled
WHERE UNDERWOOD STANDS.
Chairman Underwood, of the
Ways and Moons committee was
interrupted in his speech against
the sugar tax by a Louisiana
member, who enquired of Mr.. I'm
derwood what he anticipated
would happen to the sugar indus
try in Louisiana if the tax was re-
moved from sugar. Mr.. Under
wood replied frankly that he did
not know what would happen to
the sugar industry Of that state,
but hoped IT would survive, as it

revenue by taxing the people ac-
cording to their needs and practi-
cally according to their poverty,
and allows wealth to go untaxed,
SO far as the raising of money to
build battleships, maintain the
army, and run the government
are concerned.
The government now raises
1914, 100000 annually by placing
an import duty or tariff on the
things the people eat, wear or use.
Banks, railroads and steamship
lines pay nothing to Uncle Sam
because they do not come through
the customs houses.
Ii a fiscal system which requires
a millionaire to pay no more tax
to the federal government than the
section hand or the mill worker is
fair and just, there is no need OF
reform: but if such system is
unjust, the excise-income tax is a
move in the right direction to rem
edy it.
