/ append an extract from the speech
delivered by the Hon. T. w. Hard
wick i'm the House on April 2Sth:
Let me refer you to several in
stances in which our political adver-
saries have advocated free sugar.
read first from the speech Of Will
lam Mckinley. delivered on this
floor on May 20, 1890, when that dis
tnguished gentleman presented the
Mckinley bill:
4 would have preferred, Mr.. Chair
man, II the article OF sugar could
have been left in the tariff sched-
ule upon the dutiable List. This, how
ever, was not prac ctica'ble in the pres
ence OF an almost universal senfd-
meIt in favor of the removal ct en-
tire duties upon this article of uni
versal family use.'
Again, hear the Hon. Nelson Ding
ley during the same debate on May
10, 1890:
The duty collected on sugar and
molasses the last fiscal year was
$55 ,610, or nearly two cents per
pound. Adding to this the increas-
ed cost of two hundred and seventy
five million pounds of sugar produc-
ed in this country, equivalent to the
duty of two cents per pound, and the
duty imposed on these articles was
practically a tax of SOS 800, 900 or one
dollar per head, on the people of
this country.
Irasmuch as there is scarcely an
either article of common use not NOW
promptly produced or made here
nearly or substantially to the extent
of our wants, the transfer of sugar
and molasses ITO the free list will
afford conspicuous relief to the peo-
pie of this country
81 next read to you from a speech
of Hon. Jos. G. Cannon of Illinois.
who on May 20, 1890 SAIL:
Mr.. Chairman, the placing of sug-
ar on the free list will relieve each
inhabftant, rich and poor, of one
dollar per annum of tax, and at
least fifty cents of extortion levied
by the sugar refiners.
My principal anxiety is to place
sugar en- the free list and relieve
the people from this great burden of
taxation
'In 1894, when the senate amend
ed the Wilson bill, the late Senator
William B. Allison of Iowa. said on
June s, 1894:
If l had my way, would strike
from this bill every vestige which
provides a duty on sugar
''And yet Republicans of today, the
few that are left, first at this end
of the Capitol and a little later,
suppose, at the other end of the
Capitol. denounce this bill as radi-
cal, unjust and indefensible, and as
sert that in presenting it the Demo
cratic party is destroying great
American industry Like the French
Bourbons, these gentlemen seem
alike unable to forget anything and
to learn anythi-G," u-fn
