Sugar has been the creates
industry of Louisiana. The Lou
isiana Planter says in a recent
issue: so far as the SUI ar in
dustry of Louisiana is concerned
the situation is worse than it was
after the Civil war. Then there
were prospects ahead upon which
credits were based. There are
no such prospects now, and our
sugar planters are simply trying
to meet the exigencies of the sit
uation."
Commenting upon the Situa-
ton, the New Orleans Picayune
says: ut is worse than useless to
deceive ourselves in regard to
the blow that the new tariff has
dealt our state. The talk of truck
farming is absurd, and if all the
sugar lands were turned into
truck farms it would be impossi-
BILE to market all the produce"

Obituary.

Jacob H. Routson. son of Jos
eph and Emelia B. Routson, wa:
born October 6, 1860, at Hanover,
Penn. His parents were of Ger.
man descent, and to them four
children were born-two sons and
two daughters, of whom a son
and daughter died in infancy.
The remaining daughter grew to
womanhood and was married to
+. c. Otwell of GreenvilIe, Ohio.
Her death occurred two years
ago last October.
In his early childhood Mr.. Rout-
sons parents moved to Arcanum,
Ohio, where he attended the pub
lie schools and later learned the
trade of painting. He also work
ed with his father, whose occu-
patton was that of carriage max
er. He was industrious even in
his youth, and that trait held to
him all his days, and in his cho-
sen line of endeavor was far
above the average, both as to ex-
cellence and ability to do a large
amount of work in a given time.
Previous to coming to Knights
town he was employed at the
Soldiers and Sailors Orphans
Home at Xenia, Ohio. He came
to Knightstown in 1892, and on
February /, 1893, was employed
as painter at the Indiana Soldiers
and Sailors Orphans Home. In |
1895 he assumed the duties of |
foreman of the carpenter shop in |
addition to that of painting, and
in both he displayed superior tai
ent. His was an active life, and
he was always ambitious to per-
form his duties to the best of his |
ability.
He was united in marriage to |
Flora B. Heathco on February 6. |
1896. He was summoned by the |
Master May 7, 1914; aged SO
years, Z months and l day.
He leaves a wife, mother and
other relatives and a host of
friends to mourn his death.
He wasatruthful, honest and
true to the ideals he considered
as constituting true and faithful
manhood.

gainst 295. 600, 900; rubber, 62,
900, 600 pounds against 63, 600, 00(
pounds; and in many other arti
cles of this class there is a like
falling off in quantity imported.
In competitive" importationS
there was a notable increase. In
tin plate, for example, the i'm
ports of the six months under the
new tariff were more than 33,-
600, 600 pounds, against less than
3, 600, 900 in the six months of
last year-an increase of 1000
per cent; while the exports of tin
plate fell from IA, 900, 600 pounds
in the six months of last year to
43,OOO,OOO pounds in the six
months under the new law.
In leather and it's manufact-
ures in which the duties were
either removed or largely reouc-
ed, the imports increased more
than 40 per cent, while the eX-
ports decreased about Is per cent.
Duties on iron and steel manu-
features were reduced, and the
exports in this lire have fallen
off $50, 900, 600 in the six months
period.
AS to the importations of food
supplies, the records of the De-
partment of Commerce show that
prices at which the importation
occurred were more than 30 per
cent higher last March, under the
new tariff than in September, the
last month under the old law,
while in many other of the arti-
cles, on which duties were reduc-
ed the prices abroad were
promptly advanced.
On the day succeeding the pub
lication of the article of which
the above is a resume, the New
York Sun had the following edi-
torial comments, in the style
characteristic of that able jour
nal:
Some, too many, sordid Amer
leans are yapping and kicking a.
gainst the workings of the tariff.
They swear, and the figures seem
to prove, that it is hardening the
arteries of business and drying
up the dregs of revenues.
What of it? A tariff for rev.
enue only is the only constitu-
tional tariff, according to the new
Jeffersonians. Does any good
man want to prosper upconstitu.

the receipts from customs are but

It is pointed out by the Sun
that during the last six months
the increase in the imports of fin

600 more of such imports in the
last month of the six than in the
first month. On the other hand,
the exports of domestic manu-
factures have steadily fallen. II
October, 1918, they were $269,

they were only $184, 600, 600

manufacturers to combine, go in
