Opponents Of Free Sugar.
The World is informed that the

opposing free sugar or q heavy reduc-

of big sugar plantation in Porto Ri
CO, in which the sonin-law of the Sen

informed that the family of another
eastern United States senator who is
openly opposing free sugar or heavy

beet sugar plantation in Kansas.
Neither of these senators, it is said,
has ever publicly admitted other than
an ordinary "statesman-like" interest
in keeping high protective duty on
sugar.

Hawaii Planters Said to Have
Been Assessed S55, 600 as
Share Of Fund

That Hawaii sugar interests are
contributing $4,000 to the anti-free
sugar campaign is the declaration OF
the New York World, which states
that a fund of s217 900 has been rails
ed to fight for the retention of the
tariff. The Worlds Washington cor
respondent sends to his paper the fol-
lowing:
WASHINGTON, April 10. - The
sugar lobby Is raising big. fund ito
try 20 save the sugar industry" The
money rs to be spent in defeating, in
some way or bther, If possible, the
sugar schedule in the Underwood
tariff bill, which has the earnest per-
sonal backing of President Wilson.
What the president is trying to &C
complish is reduction of approx
mately % per cent in the duty on
sugar during 1913, 1914 and 1915,
with an fntire removal of the duty on
and after 1916. Free sugar is the
administration goal.
Their argument is that free sugar
. would reduce the cost to the consum-
ers at least is cents a pound. In
1893 when sugar was put on the free
list by President Cleveland the price
20 consumers dropped IL cents a
pound the first week. and the con-
sumption increased % per cent. The
net average increase in sugar con-
sumption during the four years sugar
was on the free list was about as per
cent
What the sugar refiners-the old
sugar trust and its present allies and
units--are desperately anxious to
accomplish is TO knock the Wilson
Underwood sugar schedule out of ex-
sstence so as to preserve the present
full duty rate of 81 per- cent. The
Underwood rate is actually
somewhat higher than the tariff on
automobiles. which is 40 per cent

Dear Sirs: Your association
has a large committee in Wash

possible to try and save the sugar

We have hesitated about calling
on you, but as We are now over
drawn in the bank it is absolute
w necessary that we have funds
at once, and therefore call on you
to please send one-half of your
subscription, say five cents per

LOBBY ,O0OT0SPEND

The officers of the American Cane
Growers Association, as printed on
Mr.. Farwelrs confidential circular,
are; Charles A. FaFWell, president;
L, M. Soniat, vice-president; d. d.

well.
Probable Yield.
Based on the figures for the 1911
sugar crop in Louisiana, the full Sub
scription" alluded to by Mr.. Farwell,
would amount to about $4,000. The
half of the subscription, which he
calls for in a hurry, would approx
mate $4,000.
There is, in addition to the Hawaii
Sugar Growers Association, which
also is privately assessed for Wash
ington lobby purposes at 10 cents a
ton. Their 1911 production was about
$50 900 tons-a lobby yield of $55, 000
The Porto Rico Sugar Growers AS
ISOLATION also is privately assessed 10
cents a ton for Washington lobby pur-
roses, which, on a basis of 100000
tons for 1911, means $4,000 from
that source.
Lastly, there is the domestic Beet
Sugar Growers Association, whose
members likewise bow to the yoke of
a lobby levy OF 10 cents ton, an ag.
gregate of $62,500 on the 1911 crop
of 625,000 tons.
So that the total fund now or soon
to be at the disposal of the Washing
tom sugar lobby-said to be the most
powerful lobby in the country will
total as follows:
Louisiana, cane growers ....$ $1,000
Hawaiian cane growers $3.50. So 900
Porto Rico cane growers -. $4,000
Domestic Sugar beet growers. $4,000
$217,5O0
A Clever lobby.
What is to be done with this big
fund which Is avowedly to be used "te
try and save the sugar Industry"
This is a question which the Wilson
administration wants to have answer
ed, it is said by one who stands close
to the president and who realizes how
earnestly he is bent on reducing the
rate on sugar.
The sugar lobby here now consists
of about thirty men, all very clever
men specially adapted by long train
ing for dealing with legislative meas
ures in congress. At the head of this
determined and resourceful lobby is
an individual who receives a salary of
$4,000 year. Some of the men in
the sugar lobby have been here for
years.
The history of the sugar lobby here
while the late Henry Q. Havemeyer
was head of the sugar trust got to be
notorious throughout the country. As
much as 100000 year was spent in
various ways. and it was charged
that number OF senators got tips

Several times within the past few
months we have heard the remarks
that Lewes would never amount to
anything until several first-class flu
nerals took place and the younger
men were put in charge of the affairs
of the town. Is it possible that these
same people cannot see the era Of
prosperity that the town is enjoying?
Can they not see that the town is
growing and that the affairs Of the
town are in very capable hands, and
that If change was made il would
in all probability be for the worse? =?
There are a number Of people here
who persist in knocking the town and
everything that pertains to il and TO
those people we advise that, II they
are not satisfied with the town and
the way its business is carried on.
they leave on one of the three trains
which leave here daily. There is a
town in the South which will not toll
crate a knocker; If any one starts TO
knock the town he is Immediately told
when the next train leaves. Why cam
not Lewes be made an "everybody-a-
| booster town like that? IL can. ali
that is necessary is that everybody
pull together and boost" and what
is now known as the town of Lewes
will within a few years be known as
the city of Lewes.

report presented to Governor Miller
several days ago, Professor Harry
Hayward. director of the Delaware
College Experiment Station tells, Of
the work that has been done at the
Station and State Farm during the
fiscal year of 1911 and 1912. What
will be of special interest to the hun
dreds of farmers of the State and
many other citizens, is a financial
statement embodied In the report
showing all the income during the
year and the expenditures OF monies
used by the Station and Farm. The
feyort shows that the work is becom-
Ing more beneficial to the Delaware
farmers each year.
In describing the work and pur-
poses of the Station, Professor Hay
ward says: with the aid of the
State appropriation for agricultural
extension, the work Of the Experiment
Station has been supplemented in a
manner that has been most acceptable
IN that it has made both the State
and Federal appropriations much
more effective. In general, IL can be
conservatively stated that the Expert
ment Station has made material pro-
gress in its work during the time
covered by this report The equip
ment is more nearly complete, the
value of its work is much better ap-
preciated, and there is an ever in
creasing demand for the assistance
that the station is able and ready TO
give"
The only important changes in the
station faculty during the year was
that Dr. Raymond c. Reed, of Elmira,
