LODGES REPORT ON EFFECT
Of ADMITTING SUGAR FREE

The Sugar Factors Company has re-
ceived a copy of the report made by
Senator Lodge, as chairman of the
Senate Finance Committee, on the
House free sugar bill, ano Manager
NOVEL; is finding it interesting read.
ig. Apart from the technical details
which have to do with figures as to
prices, productions importations, etc,
the report contains some general
comments on the sugar situation in
general. The report is in part as
follows:
Changing Long Established Policy
The committee is of the opinion that
the policy of obtaining from duties on
imports q material share of the neces-
sary revenue with which to support
the government and of securing a con-
siderable proportion of these customs
duties from the importation of sugar is
80 firmly established and has operated
so satisfactorily to all interests that it
should not be replaced suddenly by
some other form of taxation.
In view of all the important inter-
ests which would be injuriously affect
ed by it, your committee considers it
neither necessary nor wise to make so
radical a change as. is suggested in the
proposed bill
The sugar industry Of the United
States and our insular possessions,
which together furnish one-half of our
total sugar requirements, represents
an investment of several hundred mil
lion dollars, which has been made in
good faith and is deserving of fair
treatment by congress.
Sugar a Universal Revenue Producer.
One of the most striking facts dis
closed by a recent investigation made
by our state department concerning
the world sugar situation is that sugar
is a commodity which is universally
subjected to taxation, either by means
of import duties, by internal taxation
or by both.
Europe annually derives over 5000,
100000 in revenues from sugar.
Every country in the world derives
revenue from its sugar consumption.
To place sugar on the free list would
be to depart from the custom of our
own and all other countries, estab.
lished upon the teachings of science
and experience from the beginning of
political history.

ton.

sions, all for a prize, the maximum
size of which under most favorable cir
cumstances is limited to II cents per
capita per annum, would be worse than
folly.
The committee is convinced that a
small cut in the rate Of duty on raw
sugar would be absorbed by the refin-
ers and would not be reflected in the
price to consumers, and, furthermore,
that the only other effect of such re-
duction would be to deplete our nation.
al revenues and retard or destroy the
further expansion of the domestic
beet-sugar industry thus benefting
only the refiners and perhaps some Of
those who already have embarked in
the home industry through saving
them from further wholesome compe-
tition.
The committee believes that an APP
preciable reduction in the sugar sched-
u'e would end the further development
of the home beet sugar industry;
would close many of the weaker beet
sugar plants; would permanently de-
stroy the cane sugar production in
the south, and that free trade in sugar
would wreck our continental and a
large portion of our insular sugar in
du,stry. thus re-establishing in the re-
fners a complete monopoly of the sug-
ar business.
From whatever viewpoint the ques-
ton be considered, your committee
fails to discover wherein the American
consumer could be assured Of any dl-
rect benefit by reason of a reduction
of the duty on raw sugar, or any COM
pensation for arresting the growth OIL
or destroying an industry which al
ready contributes $45,OGo,OO0 annually
TO American industry, and whicn
possesses such potentially for furth-
er increasing our national wealth and
prosperity.
The committee is convinced that
the goal of cheaper sugar for Amer
lean consumers can be reached most
quickly and surely through the added
competition which would result from
the further expansion of the domestic
beet-sugar industry and that the d.
rect and indirect benefits accruing to
the farmer by reason of such eXpan'
sion would be of greater value than
the entire sum we expend for sugar.
To make even a slight reduction OF
duty on raw sugar or in any manner
20 indicate to prospective sugar-de-
velopment capital that our govern
mental policy concerning the further
expansion of our ,beet-sugar industry
is not fixed and unwavering would be

DR.. DAVIS TRAGIC DEATH
Not Definitely Known Whether Death
of Former Easton Man Was Suicide.

Not Definitely Known Whether Death
of Former Easton Man Was Suicide.
C. G. Davis received a cablegram
yesterday from Brighton, Eng,
announcing the suddel death of his
brother, DR.. Rington Davis, there
on Tuesday morning. The jury of
inquest rendered an open verdict,
from which it is not known whether
it was a murder or a suicide. DR..
Davis was born in Cincinnati, O.,
October 26, 1856. He practiced
medicine after graduating from the
Ohio Medical College Of Cincinnati,
and later he moved to New York,
where he practiced for number Of
years. His health falling, DR.. Davis
moved to Talbot county and lived
with his brother on the farm known
as Poplar Dell, in the peach blossom
section, near Easton. Two years
ago he went to England and had re-
sided at Brighton and London ever
since. De. Davis was unmarried.
The remains will be inferred tenn
porarily at Brighton. Press dis
patches from London say DR.. Davis
shot himself at the Old Ship Hotel,
Brighton, where he was staying with
his valet. At the investigation the
valet testified that DR.. Davis suffer
ed from severe headache, following
influenza, but never threatened to
take his life.

EX-STATE SENATOR LINGO
MEETS ACCIDENTAL DEATH
BOY HANDS HIM REVOLVER
WHICH IN SOME WAY GOES OFF
Bullet Enters Senator Lingo's Head
and he Lived But Few Hours
Was a Prominent Republican

Former State Senator A. B. Lin
90, of Trinity, died Friday morning
about l O'Clock never having re-
gained consciousness, as a result of
being shot accidentally Thursday
evening by Harry Wilson, aged l9,
who lived with him. Mr.. Lingo
was 95 years old. According to one
of the physicians in attendance who
remained with him until death, the
bullet entered the right side of the
head near the eye. Mr.. Lingo had
been to Lewes to take an automobile
for repairs and returned home with
a team. While in Lewes he made
some purchases and upon arriving
home asked Wilson to unharness the
horse and give him the bundles.
Wilon took the things out of the
carriage and found a revolver which
he asked Senator Lingo if he wanted
and started to hand it to Mr.. Lingo,
when it was discharged. 1t is said
the boy did not have his hand on the
trigger. The bullet entered Mr..
Lingo's head, and he fell over un-
conscious. DIR. William B. Jones
of Millsboro, and Or. Rowland 3.
Paynter, of Georgetown, were sum-
moned and went to Trinity as soon
as possible. They found that the
chances of recovery were remote,
but they did all that could be done.
The bullet had penetrated the brain.
Mr.. Lingo never regained conscious
ness. He was an active Republican
and had many friends throughout
Sussex county. Of quiet and re-
tiring disposition he was hard
fighter in politics and a big factor
for his party in his district. He
was elected Senator from the Fourth
district in 1904, and during his term
fought for a bill for the construction
of an improved highway through his
district. The bill, however, was
declared unconstitutional on the
ground that the Legislature could
not provide for the improvement of
a specifically designated road. Mr.
Lingo is survived by his wife. He
was a brother of Register of Wills

Mrs. Burton. wife or Postmaster

afternoon a 'clock his late res
idence, with interment in Brother
hood cemetary. Millsboro. Wilson,
who did the shooting, is an orphan
and had been given home by Mr..

Newark Had Four Electric Storms

From $3.50 o'clock Thursday after
noon until $50 O'Clock the same
night four electrical storms passed
over Newark. Although several of
them were severe and seemed to
hang right over the town for time,
no damage was done. There was
heavy rainfall. which Prof. Harry
Hayward, director of the Expert
ment Station, stated was worth
thousands of dollars to the farmers
of the vicinity as the rain was badly
needed. The steeple of the Catholic
Church on Main street near Newark
Center depot, was struck by light
ming during the storm of Wednesday
night. Some slate was torn from
the roof and other light damage
