Great Crime.
One Of the greatest crimes perpe-
trated by the Underwood tariff was
the practical destruction Of the sugar
industry IN the United States, the
cane growing producers Of the South
and the beet sugar manufacturers Of
the West and Northwest. This is
brought all the more clearly to mind
by the present exigency caused by
the European war. which has shut of
the supply Of foreign importations
and the price Of sugar mounting up
wards. Under the stimulating effects
of the Republican protective tariff the
United States was fast approaching
the day when 1t would have been in
dependent as sugar producer, en-
|tirely free of Its dependence on the
foreign importer. It is no argument
to say that the present contingency
was not anticipated. It is enough to
know that 1t prevails, and that the
|stringency Of the sugar market would
not have been entailed had our sugar
producers not been practically driven
out of the business by the .iniquitous
Democratic free trade measure.

scented one OF the fastest and best
trained prep eievens seen on The local
field for many year. and completely
outclassed the home team, who never
threatened to score. Not once did the

who advanced the ball with ease.
The Anal score was 46 to 0. the Wis
itors making seven touchdowns, four
of them in the last half. and kicking

the victors had the locals up in the
air and they never failed to gain.

only redeeming feature being the
brilliant work Of the John Marshall

open field running they were hard TO
stop Players were repeatedly
