Republican Outlook Bright

Republicans have no reason to feel
dissatisfied with the outlook this year
or for 1916" remarked former Repre-
sentative Joseph II. Gaines of Charles
ton, w. Va, at Washington.
The Democrats promised to do
great things, the most important of
which, the one closest to the people,
was the reduction Of the cost of liv-
ing. They passed a tariff bill and
proclaimed to the country that the
people would be benefited. What is
the result? There is not a single per
son in the United States who is buy
ing food any cheaper than he did be
fore the enactment OF the tariff law.
The Democrats have always been long
on promises but short on perform
ances and results. Republicans and
Progressives will soon get together
Down in my state the Progressives
are declaring that they are Repub-
Leans, always were Republicans, and
always will be Republicans, but that
they got mad for the moment because
OF the Chicago convention. Now that
they have had time to cool off they
have put on their Republican clothes
again"

PROFIT TO REF|NERS
Inevitable Result of New Tariff
Duties on Sugar.
Governments Sacrifice of One-Ouar-
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
reiineries. There will be an INN edi-
ate revival of the refining industry,
for the former sugar duties, despite
popular opinion to the contrary, were
not 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 reiiners.
They, instead of the government, will
profit, while consumers. who imag-
ined that they were going to save
three or four cents 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 TIE
sacrifice of one-quarter OF the usual
fifty millions OF annual sugar revenue.
1t will sacrifice it all beginning March
/. 1916. If there is a 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. II is real craftsmanship to
take money out of the United States
treasury and store it in the private
Golfers OF so-called sugar barons. That
is the kind OF trust-busting that any
magnate will applaud. 1t is the kind
of craftsmanship that drives the ma
tional vessel full speed on the rocks
of bankruptcy. 1t is sort OF insan-
ity to take $50,00O,000 annually out
of our national treasury so that sugar
planters in Cuba can earn larger divi-
dends, while cane and beet growers in
the southern and western states OF
our own country are starved out.
