Laws Cure to PRAYER.

Cincinnati. = Rev. DR.. J. w. Nc
Kittrick, pastor of a st. Louis
Presbyterian congregation, has recov-
cred from an illness which physicians
declared would be fatal and for which
he was being treated in Bethesda here.
His recovery is attributed directly to
prayers by two st. Louis ministers.
Dr. G. w. Shields, brother-in-law Of
Rev. McKittrick, said that the mans
recovery was surprise to physicians,
who had given it up as hopeless. Dur
ing all this time the st. Louis min
listers continued their prayers without
knowing his condition was SO critical.

PROFIT TO REE!NERs
Inevitable Result of New Tariff
Duties on Sugar.
Governments Sacrifice of one-Quars
ter of the Usual Fifty Millions Of
Annual Revenue viii In No Way
BENEFIT the Consumer.

The new duties on sugar are now In
effect. Millions Of pounds Of raw ma
terial, now under bond in government
warehouses. have been rushed to the
refineries. There will be an immedir
ate revival of the refining industry
for the former sugar duties, despite
popular opinion to the contrary, were
not a largess to the manufacturers. but
were a protection to the producer.
Lower imports suit the "bloated sugar
magnates' exactly. Why not? The
difference in duties will be absorbed
by the trade, that Is, by the refiners-
They, instead of the government, will
profit, while consumers, who imagt
ined that they were going to save
three or four cents a year In their
sugar bills will not find that amount
to their credit in the banks. No
the sugar barons acquired control Of
plantations in the West Indies, and
on the basis of import duties levied
by the United States, for none
dreamed of free sugar. and those plan
tations are now worth SO much more,
for they are being now placed on an
equality with American lands UNDER
infinitely better conditions Of secur-
ing crops.
The government begins now the
sacrifice of one-quarter Of the USUAL
fifty millions of annual sugar revenue
1t will sacrifice it all beginning March
l, 1916. II there is sugar trust,
the Democracy should have no trou-
Bile in securing large campaign con-
tributions from it, though the Democ-
racy, Of course, would not accept
them. 1t is real craftsmanship to
take money out Of the United States
treasury and store it in the private
coffers of so-called sugar barons. Thai
Is the kind of trust-busting that any
magnate will applaud. 1t Is the kino
Of statesmanship that drives the ma
tional vessel full speed on the rocks
Of bankruptcy. 1t is sort OF insans
ity to take $50.000,000 annually out
Of our national treasury 80 that sugar
planters in Cuba can earn larger divf
dends, while cane and beet growers in
the southern and western states OF
our own country are starved out.

Many Auto Licenses Issued.

One year ago last January, Registrar
Shearer of the state automobile de-
partment considered that he had done
a good months work when he licensed
$1,000 automobiles, but during the last
two weeks this year he has put his
year-ago record to shame. At the
close of the first two weeks business
of this fiscal year, he had handled ap-
plications for almost $4,000 automo-
biles. And we are only an hour and
a half behind the postofice, too," was
his comment in speaking of the rush
of business. From indications there
will be large registration of motor
cycles this year. The total number
of applications was about 1900.
