the men who have led the great polit-4
ical reforms knew neither kin nor

from the political views Of his

Every great reform in England was
achieved in the bitterness of broken
friendships. No public man in Amer

caused them to waver. Perhaps no

A National Measure.

There was no party question in
volved In the currency bill; there IS
no feature Of the bill which is in any
sense whatever an Issue between the
parties, and 1t is gratifying that so
many Republicans at both ends OF
the capitol voted for 1t that it cannot
be regarded as a party measure. The
country Is Indebted to a Democratic
president and Democratic congress
for it, but it is national and not .,
PARTISAN measure, and was not passed
by a mere party majority. The Re
publicans attempted at one time to he
lieve that the gold standard was in
volved, but wheIi the gold standard act
of II years ago was expressly reaf-
firmed they had no further opportunity
of drawing party lines on tho bill.

THEIR GRAFT ENDED
No Wonder Sugar Trust Is Presi-

DisreputabIe Monopoly Had Enjoyed
Its Privilege of Robbing the Pep

The sugar trust is the Most disrepu-

competition and insured exclusive con-

gave the trust bounty on its work.

the sugar trust. Not content with
robbing the public, that trust must

government employees whose duty 1t

cheated on weights like a thieving
fish peddler. For years it was saved
from punishment by the friendship OF
Theodore Roosevelt; but in the ad-
ministration Of William III. Taft 1t was
given a taste--a tin taste-of jus
tice.
The trust collectively and its Off
Gals individually were dragged Into
court, charged with criminal conspir-
acy to defraud the government. Many
of the accused pleaded guilty. Some
turned states evidence. Several were.
sentenced to jail. The underlings,
who had merely done the crooked.
work they were. ordered to do, had to
serve their sentences.
But Charles r. Heike, secretary and
treasurer of the tGust, who was found
guilty OF consplring to ~defraud the
government through false weights,
and was sentenced to. eight months
in jail, was pardoned by President
Taft two days before Woodrow Wilaon
took Office.
In addition to convictions, fines and
jail sentences, the trust paid back
nearly 100000 which it admitted
having stolen by short weights. Cow
eminent attorneys claim that the en-

was between 100000 and $11,00O,-
