Foolish.

1t is foolish to assign war abroad
as a reason for doubling the price Of
sugar to the American consumer.
With the foreign demand either les
sened or destroyed, the effect ought
to be to cheaper the commodity to
the American purchaser. There is
now no tariff to which to attribute
the power Of the trust. On every table
there is today the proof that the sugar
trust is very potential under a Demo-
cratic tariff policy.-weston Indepen-

D. OF |. IN JERSEY
SHOWS BEST GAIN
State Council Gets Prize at Ma
tionaI Convention for Growth
in Membership.

Thirty delegates from this vicinity
and various sections of New Jersey,
representing the State Council of the
Daughters of Liberty, are attending
the annual session of the national
council of the order, which convened
in Washington, d. c., today.
The New Jersey contingent are at
tending the convention under the
most encouraging auspices. as this
State will be awarded the cash prize
of 500 offered by the national body
for the jurisdiction making the
largest net gain in membership dur
ing the past year.
The report to be submitted by the
New Jersey delegates will show that
this State has made a gain of 1,450
members or 400 more than the near
est competitor The statement to be
submitted will also show that the 1870
councils of the order IN New Jersey
have a total membership of 22,179
and that the councils are worth $170,-
600. During the past six months
SAC, 093 has been paid out in sick and
funeral benefits. The largest council
in the State is No. 80, of Paterson.
and in Essex county No. 81, of this
city.
The finances of the councils are in
vested as follows: Cash in treasures,
52,S6043 funds invested. $685. 994.94;
paraphernalia, $50, 1925, and real es-
tate, 81, 430.S0. There are 10000 men,
bers of the order throughout the
country, and this State has nearly
one-fourth of the total enrolment.
The national representatives include
Mrs. Evelyn Seeley, Mrs. M. G..
Cowell, William o. Criger and George
S. Thompson, of this city; Mrs Laura
b. Taylor. of East Orange; Mrs. Cor
don Kendall, Mrs. Alice Reynolds and
Mrs. Sarah T.. Beck and Mrs. Gather
inc Kirkman, OF Trenton, and Mrs
Grace Nixon and George w. Miller,
of Washington.
The State councillor and associate
councillor are Mrs. Elizabeth Holmes,
OF Wcstfield, and Mrs. Sarah Lerch,
or Chatham.
Among the recommendations to
be submitted to the national body by
the New Jersey contingent will be
that the laws governing sick and flu
neral benefits be amended, as well as
the clause relating to balloting for
candidates.
The national council law now pro-
vides that no member Is debarred
from sick and funeral benefits until
she owes six weeks dues. Another
law says that when dues are paid
between meetings the payment can
not be credited until the next meet
Ing. AS the delinquent would then be
seven weeks in arrears, this provision
of the law caused considerable con-
fusion.
The council will be asked to change
the clause so that it will read: THAT
a member cannot become non-bene-
fetal for sick and funeral benefits be-
tween meetings"
Also, under the present law of the
order, every candidate must have a
separate ballot. The council will be
asked to amend this law, making it
read that when there are more than
three candidates "a collective ballot
can be taken.
