For Presiding Judge-A. B. Owen

For Presiding Judge-A. B. Owen
A. B. Owen of Mt. Pleasant town.
ship announces this week his candi.
dacy for the Democratic nomination
for Presiding Judge of the County
Court. ~~.
Mr.. Owen is well known through
out the county having been active in
the interests of the Democratic party
since reaching his majority and he has
a host of friends in every township
who will welcome this opportunity to
rally to his support.
Mr.. Owen is truly a native son.
He was born on farm in Grand
River township, coming of good old
Kentucky stock. He was educated
in the common schools of the county
and for forty years remained on the
farm where he was born. During
his lifetime he has held several posi-
items of honor and trust, in all of
which he has faithfully fulfilled his
obligations.
There is probably no man in the
county who is better qualified to fill
this most important office and who
will give the affairs of the public the
almost constant attention which the
duties Of this office demand, and Ger
fainly no one is better posted upon the
needs and requirements Of the vari-
Gus sections Of the county.
He is an honorable gentleman, con-
sentative in his views and possessing
marked business ability.

The commissioner,hip Decision.

Justice Stafford, Of the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict Of Columbia has decided that Oliver P. New
man is not in contempt of court in refining the OF
fee of District Commissioner pending the result Of
his appeal from the verdict of jury declaring hin
IA "usurper" and the courts writ of "ousters
The courts decision would also appear to affirm
the legality of the Board of Commissioners as at
present constituted and theSyaldity OF its acts II
this view of the decision is correct the District has
at least reason to be thankful that it has escaped
endless litigation over municipal Transactions As
this point not involved in the contempt action,
however, it is not improbable that may be brought
up at l&er date
The decision while il win to SONG extent re-
eve the apprehension that District governmental aft
fairs wereto be thrown into chaos has no bearing
upon the contention that the home rule section of
the law of 1873 was violated in the appointment of
Mr.. Newman. The people of Washington who have
followed the legal contest from the beginning are
of one opinion this the main point at issue even
though Mr.. Newman, by taking advantage of the in
trcacies of the law may be able to retain his Office
to the end of the term.
The fight has been made in the courts not against
an individual, but to uphold the wise and just law
which provides that the two civilian Commissioners
shall be residents of the District of Columbia, and
the men who have made it have earned credit

Time to Restore the Sugar Duty.

OF all the products of daily consumption which
have advanced in price since war began in Europe
sugar easily takes the lead, having almost doubled
IN cost to the consumer in the last ten days. The
enactment of the Underwood tariff bill dealt stag
gerng blow to the sugar producing industry of the
United States, reduced the national revenues So
100000 but failed to reduce the cost of the product
to the consumer to any appreciate extent The out
break of the war finds with our own sugar in
dustry Parabzed and people forced to pay famine
prices for sugar without putting one additional penny
in the Treasury.
With importations of all products from Europe
practically suspended, cutting of our customs rev.
enues from that source, the administration is con-
fronted with the problem of raising 100000 an
nually by additional taxation. With the income tax
already in operation, to Offset the reduction in Gus
toms revenue brought about by the Underwood bill
and with food prices soaring to unheafd-of heights
the government is at its wits ends to discover a
means of raising the money 1t seems almost in
evitable that it must restore customs duties in some
directions While trade with Europe is prac-
hcally shut off still importing valuable car
goes from other parts of the world and these should
be made TO restore our depleted revenues to con-
siderable extent Above ALL the duty on sugar should
be promptly restored not primarily because of any
immediate revenue that may thus be produced but
nj order to rehabihtate the sugar producing indus
try in this country 1t may be argued that the pre-
vaing prices offer sufficient encouragement for
the resumption of production, but producers who
have been driven out of business by the tariff law
and forced into other enterprises cannot be ex-
pected to return to the sugar industry merely to
take advantage of an emergency with the prospect
OF being left in their original plight when it passes
The sugar industry only be rehabilitated by a
permanent tariff provision to insure it profitable
existence
The sacrifice OF S5ooooooo annually in sugar duties
with no benefit accruing to the consumer was a mis-
take which the administration must have recognized
by this time Now is its opportunity to rectify ii.
