from the st. Louis Republic.
Two elements in this country are
most active in fighting the free-sugar
clause of the Underwood bill. One
comes from Louisiana, where sugar
cane is grown under conditions which
everybody admits r not natural.
They cannot grow cane profitably be-
cause the climate is not fitted for it.
They want the country to pay them
for doing an Improbable business.
The other element is the beet-sugar
men. In a recent debate in the Senate
Senator Thomas of Colorado declared
that the beet-sugar interests in his
State were capitalized at $50, 900, 900, of
which about $4,000, 900 is water. The
same debate brought out that one
Michigan beet-sugar concern is capt.
talized at 80, 200, 900, of which $5,000,-
900 is scheduled by the company as
''good will"
The plea of these men is that they
shall have tariff protection in order
that dividends may be paid upon ficti-
tious values. OF course they do not
say so, but that is what it amounts to.
Thus two local industries are seeking
to hold up the rest of the United
States for profits which do not belong
to them. Does anyone wonder that
the House and Senate have decided
they shall not do it?

ACCORDING to J. P. Dunlop, of the
United States Geological Survey, the
southeast Missouri and central Mis-
souri, regions produced about 70 per
cent Of the lead output of the Central
States and about So per cent output of
lead from domestic ore in the United
States in 1912. The production from
central Missouri is very small and it
is included with southeast Missonri
for convenience. The Joplin region
produced 19per cent of the of the lead
and so per cent of the zine of the Cen
trail States in 1912 and was much the
largest producer of zinc in the United,
States, yielding about AZ per cent of
the total zinc production from do
nestle ores. The upper Mississippi
region produced less than 2 per cent
OF the lead and 10 per cent Of the zinc
produced in the Central States in 1911.
PENNINGTON TIMES "If any of the
miners of the Lead Belt are feeling
the least uneasiness over threats or
JUNIORS that the lowering of the tariff
on lead will necessitate a cut in wages,
we would assure them that there is no
ground for such fear. Lead to-day is
selling higher in London than it is in
the United States, which is an earnest
that the price of lead in this country
will not suffer from foreign competi-
ton, and that there would be no ex-
cuse for American operators cutting
wages. From the st. Louis Republics
London quotations of lead last Tues
day, it will be observed that lead was
selling in London on Monday at s19,
los. per ton. Taking sterling exchange
at 4 SO, this would make the London
price $95.94 a long ton, or about
$4.309 per hundred pounds. That
day lead in st. Louis was quoted at
1920, or 1917 less per 100 than in Eng
land. With this difference in the price
what reason is there really for any
tariff at all on lead to protect it from
foreign competition, or any necessity
for cutting wages because of a lower
tariff"
