THE TRUST HAS PUT ONE OVER

Now that the tariff bill has become
a law Democratic senators are begin
ming to suspect that the sugar trust
has 'sput one over on them, , to use
a slang phrase, but n that seems to
fit the situation. AS long as there was
a question about the removal of the
duty on sugar the cry was kept up that
the sugar tariff helped the trust. Now
that free sugar is a certainty reports
are beginning to crop out that it Will
be worth $4,000, 900 to 50,000,000 a
zeal to the refining interests by driv-
ing out American brown sugar, the
competition of which has kept prices
down and limited the profits of the
trust. The fact is beginning to leak
out that the refners themselves were
behind the claim that the trust profit
ed by the maintenance of sugar duties,
while under the new tariff the trust
and its fellow r~efners will get their
raw sugar cheaper and will get rid
of the home competition that has cut
largely into their profits in recent
years. In the final stages of debate
in the senate several Democratic SEN
ators, including Walsh, of Montana,
and Newlands of Nevada, declared
that free sugar would be of benefit
chiefly to the trust, but, like their col
leagues, they were bound by the caucus
edict in favor of free sugar to vote
for the provision. The consolation the
Democratic senators have is to point
out that for years the sugar trust fool
ed the Republicans with its differen-
tial duty so that they are not the only
ones to be taken in.-Colfax Qowa)

A PROGRESSIVE CHURCH

Establishment of a social service
commission to have charge of extend
ing the aid of the church to labor in
it's struggle for industrial justice, the
adoption of an annuity plan Tor aged
ministers and the adoption of a
~''peace" resolution criticising the ex-
penditure of large sums of money for
wal were the principal things accom-
plished by the National Council of
Congregational Churches in session at
Kansas City this week.
The social service commission Will
be composed o. nine members and will
take over the work previously done by
the Brotherhood of the Church. The
scope, however, will be greatly extend
ed. The church plans to make an ag-
gressive campaign to aid in righting
so-called industrial wrongs
The secretary of the new commits
sion will be Harry A. Atkinson, of
Chicago, who has had wide experience
in recent efforts of the church in be-
half of labor.
The annuity plan, which in many re-
spects resembles the endowment
scheme of many old line insurance
companies, provides that the ministers
shall furnish 20 per cent of the fund
through yearly payments and the
church so per cent. The church S
share will be contributed in monthly
collections. An effort 80 obtain a
2,000,0 900 endowment also will be
made.
Ministers who enter the plan at Fl
years of age will have cheaper rates
than those who come in at 40. At p,
for instance, the minister's annual
rate is s2I.47; at 40 it is $3.50.
At the age of 65 years the annuities
begin. Then a minister who has serv-
ed the church at least thirty years viii

are made for the support of widows
and dependent children. and there is a
provision covering disability. The

OLD FORT BUILT BY RUSSIANS
ArcheoIoeist's Explanation of Ruins
of Building on the Northern Coast
of California.

Ruins OF buildings on the old Weske
ranch. near Windsor and about thir-
teen miles north of Santa Rosa. Cal,
hitherto unexplained. now are thought
to be the work of people of mechani-
cal skill, probably Russians, who
erected the buildings 100 years or
more ago.
That the edihces were not the work
of the Spaniards is taken for granted,
as the history of this country under
Spanish rule is sufficiently complete
to give assurance that some record of
the construction of the buildings
would have been left.
The construction is too exact to
have been the work of the Indian
races and local investigators have de-
cided that the ruins are those of a
large fort or fortified settlement built
by Russians early III the last cen
fury.
The ruins have the appearance of
being parts of a once massive FORTH

SUFFRACISTS
FACE FINES
Treasury Officials Assert
EmuIatOrS Of DR.. Shaw
Must Pay Penalty

PHILADELPHIA. PA, Dec 29.-
Suifragists who refuse to make re-
turn of their personal property for
taxation purposes will be fined from
$50 TO $1,000, according to statements
made today by Treasury officials in
Washington When the officials were
informed that Dr.. Anna Howard
Shaw, president of the National Wo-
man Suffrage Association, had urged
all women to refuse to make personal
property returns. they replied that
the women who followed DR.. Shaw's
advice will get into trobule."
Dr. Shaw could not be reached
early today to comment on the
statement of the Treasury officials.
She left her home at Moylan, Della
ware county, and went TO New York.
At the suffrage headquarters on
Fifth avenue it was said that Or.
Shaw had gone out and that her des-
tinatiOn was not known.
She was not registered at the Ho-
tel McAlpine, where she usually stops
when in New York.
Dispatches from Washington de-
clare that Treasury officials are
pointing out the income tax law to
uphold their assertion that fines will
be imposed upon those who refuse to
make a return and pay the tax. The
income tax law. they point out, clear
ly specifies that anyone who shall
refuse or neglect to make return at
the time or times hereinbefOre speci-
fed in each year, shall be liable to a
penalty of not less than $40 nor
more than $1,000"
The law further prescribes a fine
of not more than $4,000 and not more
than a year in prison as punishment
for anyone who makes "any false OF
fraudulent return or statement on the
subject with intent to defraud the
Government.
The Treasury officials made it clear
that everyone subject TO the income
tax, whether man or woman, will have
to obey the law requiring returns on
the amount of annual income and that
the Government will take the proper
steps to enforce the law where any
attempt 10 eNdue II is Hdue.
While DR.. Shaw's determination not
to aid the Moylan tax collector in esti-
mating the amount of her personal
property has been endorsed by locai
women who are working for the suf-
frage cause. none of them will say
that she will follow DR.. Shaw's lead
Mrs George Morgan, 441S Usage ave
nue.. endorsed DR.. Shaw's stand, de-
claring that tax resistance was q
cplendid thing.
4 Miss Mary Winsor, Haverford, who
will address the Plastic Club. in Soutr
Camac street. on New Years Day
will speak to a large extent on DR.
Shaw's proposition.
