THE TARIFF JOKER"

Tt was Senator Morris Sheppard who
called attention of the senate finance
committee to the Joker" i'll the sugar
schedule in the Underwood Bill. 1t was
also due to SheppardS efforts that the
"joker' was eliminated from the bill by
the senate committee. Now that its pres
ence there has been pointed out, it VIII
not be the senator's fault if the joker is
restored. We are not concerned. to know
how Sheppard discovered that 4 certain
clause in the bill was loaded. 1t is en-
ought to know that it was he who drew
the charge so that it is no longer IN
danger Of going off and hurting the
measure.
The "ioker" was Il provision in the
bill hat refined sugar, when tinctured
colored, or in any way adultcratcd.
should bear a duty Of two cents per
pound. People who are acquainted with
sugar refining processes say this would
mean Il two cent duty upon Il very large
class Of refined, high grade sugars,
many Of which are whitened by IN III
tramarinc process. SO far, therefore. as
sugars OF TINS class are imported INTO
this country. they would by no means be
OH the free list.
1t is conceivable that this loaded"
provision crept into the bill in perfect
good faith OF the pert Of the man who
wrote it there. 1t was plausible. 1t per
haps seemed t. the writer Of il and 70
the committee who passed it a prOtec-
ton of the public against the dangers
of an adulteratcd product; that As such
they regarded il. and they passed it. 1t
will perhaps never be known who SUg-
gested to the committee thanks to
Senator Sheppard Of Texas, this par
ticular cOlorcd person III the wo3d
pile is known to be in the wood pile. He
Will doubtless be eliminated from the
wood pile.
We cannot say whether the cducation-
al committee of the sugar lobby hap
pened to be around anywhere when that
particular loaded proposition got by
the house committee.
