TO CUT DUTY ON SUGAR.
Bill to Be Offered In House Soon Show,
Big Reduction.

Washington. Jan. 22.-The terms OF
the sugar tariff revision bill that Is to
be reported to the house by the COM
mittee on ways and means practically
have been agreed upon. The measure
will be taken up after the passage Of
the bill proposing a revision Of the
iron. steel and chemical schedules.
II present plans are carried out. the
sugIr revision bill will impose a duty
of 81 per 100 pounds on the raw prod
uct instead of $l.6S, as at present The
reduction will be greater than appears
on the surface. Under the reciprocal
trade agreement with Cuba. sugar i'm
ports from the island are admitted at
a rate OF 20 per cen lower than that
imposed on the product coming from
other countries. As most OF the raw
sugar brought to this country comes
from Cuba. the Democratic rate of 81
really means a cut to so cents.

LOUISIANA
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author of AT Good Old Siwash"

Louisiana is a naturaliZed member
of the United States, having immi-
grated from France in 1903 1t still
has strong French accent and is full
of rivers, towns, and citizens whose
names cannot be pronounced without
the assistance of the shoulders and
eyebrows
Louisiana consists largely of the
terminal facilities of the Mississippi
river and in fact has been made by
this river during its idle moments
during the last few million years. 1t
is the only state which is growing in
size as well as population. 1t has
only $4,000 square miles, but is large
for its age, having acquired several
counties in the last few centuries by
the growth of the delta country.
Louisiana was discovered by the
Spanish, settled by the French, cap
tured by the English, ceded back to
the French, bought by the United
oNItVo. COlN Ci ICu ny tic az >
and finally hauled back into the I'm
ion by the scruff of the neck and
Ben Butler. 1t has lived under five
flags and for time the cautious man
didn't hang out the flag of his coun-
try until he looked in the newspaper
and found out what his country was
that day.
Louisiana is one of our national
curiosities. 1t has the only elevated
river system in the country, the
Mississippi flowing through it so far
above the land that the careless citi
zen has to climb up to it on a ladder
in order to fall in. Louisiana has
more miles of nayigable rivers than
it has railroads. 1t has parishes in
stead of counties. 1t has more pine
land than cotton land, more swamps
than farms, more monsieurs than
misters, and more steamboats, than
automobiles. a...1. .s.-s4..,.
In Louisiana the society people live
in the country and the rustics gawk
at them from the streets of the cities.
The millionaires are the peasantry
and the aristocrats are the poor Gre
oles who can trace their ancestry
back to the French kings and can
trace some of their bills almost as
far. In Louisiana oysters are bev-
erage and crayfish confectionery.
Sugar, salt and rice are three of it's
greatest products, but you cant get
rice pudding nearer than Memphis.
Old furniture and new lumber are
two of its great assets. It's chief
