A Guilty Conscience.

1t is little suspicious that the
sugarites should so violently resent
the imputation of President Wilson
in regard to the lobby that is said
to have established its quarters at
Washington. If they are not guilty
no harm will come to them. In place
of resenting the charge it should
have invited investigation and CO.
operated with the President in his
efforts TO investigate the existing
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
This is another instance of
guilty conscience being a self-ac-
cuser. The sugarites are Interested
in sugar only, and are bound by no
principle of party. What would the
sugarites not do to keep sugar on
the Republican protection list of
infant industries.
