ing in an address before the Society

The statement was startling to the hun

from experience in the disputed theory.
.'When man goes wrong" DR..
Jones went on, ''society throws its
arms around him and women are the
first to forgive. He does not have to
wear 'hungd dog expression and shun
his fellow beings as though plague

he finally reforms, never really having
lost the respect of his friends.
'.With women it is different. Their

Both adopted the same unfair
policy TO drive competitors out Of
business,
= Both must stand together or
fall together. II the courts hold
that the American Sugar Rein
ing Company, must reimburse
the sugar planters of louisiana
then the sugar beet growers of
the nation will begin to reach
out for the tremendous surplus
funds which have been accumu-
lated by the Great Western and
allied concerns.
REBELLION IN LOUISIANA.
The revolt of Louisiana is one
of the most significant develop
ments of this Sugar fight. For
a quarter of a century the Sugar
Trust has owned that State and
established a political and COM
mercial despotism. When the
Underwood bill was before Con-
gress the Louisiana Senators
abandoned their party rather
than vote to remove the Sugar
tariff. They argued that their
people benefited from protection,
but the fact was at that very mo-
ment the Sugar Trust was paying
more for FOREIGN sugar than
it was for AMERICAN sugar.
The tariff enabled it. to fix the
price it would pay the American
farmers but it had to meet the
competition Of the world when
it undertook to do business with
the foreign sugar growers.
Gradually the tariff scales are
falling from the eyes of the
American people, and they are
being made to see what an ar
rant old fraud this protection
fetished is.
