The sugar question is still being
fought out in Congress, with the
indications that the Louisiana
sugar industry will be sacrificed
to the sugar trust. The bill to
put sugar on the free list, recently
passed by the House of Repre-
sentatives, is now before the
Senate, and what fate it will have
there remains to be seen. Our
representatives at the National
Capitol are doing all that can be
depended on them to encompass
the defeat of the measure and it
is to be hoped that they will be
successful. Among them Sena-
tor Foster is working like a Tro-
jan. The failure to make Louis.
lana Republican State is prob
ably the reason why there ia such
persistence to kill the poor little
Louisiana sugar industry-that's

Rules for Talking Weather.

The English are as insensible to their weather as they are to a vast number of other things. They talk oi nothing else; but there is yet an arti- ficiality about the conversation that denotes it to be a standardized topic. If genuine feeling and emotion are ex- pressed regarding t by an outsider they become suddenly touchy. and what seemed neutral ground on which differing temperaments could meet with perfect amiability is seen to be no better than a bank of bristling thistles. It is here that the rules of the weather game are seen more clearly. You may talk of t to the exclusion of everything else; you are regarded as difficult if you have an aversion to a certain amount of speech about it, and yet there are cer- tain things you must never say about 1t, or. if you do. you must say them as though in spite of everything you would not exchange it for any other weather in the world, and you would defend it with your last breath.--Flor- ida Pier h H>rperis Weekly.
