Ed kestins's Interest Is Interesting

The recent fight in the democratic
congress over the Panama canal tolls
revealed a situation the converse
Of much party pslaver about divine
harmony, inner circles, rank and file
or otherwise. But the omniscient Ed
Heating, our absent-treatment con-
gressman, sees the schism in the Light
Of a "lovers' quarrel" which will be
succeeded by breaking Of bread and
the singing Of glorious hallelujahs.
It's all very fine. We are glad these
things interest Ed. In fact we are
glad to see him show signs of life
in any direction. But In the mean
time, the San Luis valley must look
to an assistant secretary Of the in
terror, now attending the irrigation
congress at Denye, for interest and
support In our efforts to obtain feder-
al aid for necessary drainage pro-
jects. Keating's weekly letters make
great reading while collectors art at
the front door and mortgages falling

But during the campaign Hobson
and Hobson's friends said Of Under

the whiskey ring.
It was assumed that the interests"
and Wall street, treated vaguely a.
pretty much the same thing. were an
tagonistic to the people-that who
ever favored them did so at the ex-
pense Of the people. II Mr.. Under
wood was really the enemy Of the
masses Of the people, As represented,
it would take q pretty good party
loyalty to induce q man TO support
him, because Of his nomination. II
he were really the champion Of the
whiskey ring, prohibitionists and the
sober-minded people, who object to
being ruled by the whiskey ring, could
not support him with any enthusiasm.
But all those charges were untrue,
were known to be untrue by those
who made them and by those who
heard them. Mr.. Underwood's rec
ord is a. well known az that Of any
man in public life. No man in pub
lie life has q cleaner record-a record
Of more complete devotion to duty to
all the people. His opponents knew
this when they made the charges
against him, and they knew that nine
tenth of the voters Of Alabama knew
it.
With the hope Of deceiving one

that were insulting to the intelligence

that men who run for Office try to

fathered a Fake Grocers' Commit
tee" and flooded the country with
false and misleading statements, are
apparently becoming alarmed as well
as the president and his leaders at
the howl Of protest going up all over
the country against Wilson's policy,
and are seeking to fool the people in
to the belief that the consumer is
getting the full benefit Of the 25 per
cent reduction in the sugar tariff.
It will be difficult matter, however,
for the New York refiners to con-
vince the consumer that he is getting
sugar any cheaper than he did a
month, or in fact two months before
the reduction in the tariff became ef-
fective.
Willett & Gray. New York sugar
brokers, and publishers Of the repre-
sentative organ Of the Cane Sugar
Refners, published tabulated state
ment the other day showing who is
getting the benefit of the 25 per cent
reduction in the tariff on sugar. And
it isn't the consumer by long shot.
The 25 per cent reduction in the
sugar tariff became effective March
1, the reduction amounting to "a
cents per 100 pounds on Cuban SO
degree sugar. Using the quotations
of February 20 (the last weekly quo
tations prior to the reduction) let US
see into whose pocket this "a cents
found its way. Plainly the Cuban
planter did not get it, for the in
bound price Of Cuban raw sugar drop
ped from $2.04 per 100 on February
26 to $500 on March s; in other
words, the refiners paid the Cuban
4 cents per 100 less for raw sugar,
which cost them "a cents to get
through the customs house under the
new tariff. Neither the wholesaler,
nor the consumer got the benefit of
the reduction for the New York
wholesale price of granulated was
1892 per 100 on February 26, and
the same on March 5, five days after
the reduction rates became effective.
The figures show that the refinera
not only absorbed the full 81 cents
but added an additional four cents
to their margin. which the Cuban
planter had to bear. The refiners'
margin increased from SO cents per
100 on February 26, to So cents on
March s. The SO cents margin of
course, represented the cost Of refin-
ing and the refiners' profit, SO that
the 3s cents increase meant that much
additional clear profit to the refiners.
AS a matter Of fact the importer
and refner Of foreign raw sugar who
fixes the prices, has absorbed practi-
cally all Of the Is per cent reduction
Of the tariff and he can be counted on
to do this right along. The Cuban
planter and the beet sugar manufac-
turer will bear the reduction If any,
and the refiner will get his pound of
flesh.
A for the consumer he will pay
the freight. Meantime a domestic
industry in which $500. 0.000, 900 is in
vested and which disburses millions of
dollars annually which is distributed
through the local channels Of busi-
ness must be sacrificed to satisfy a
handful Of unscrupulous refiners Of
raw sugar on the Atlantic coast.
That is the way the Wilson admin
istration fosters and encourages a
Legitimate industry"
There IL only one way for the peo-
pie who believe in home interests
rather than foreign monopoly, and
that is to rise in their might at the
polls next November and smite the
Wilson administration hip and thigh.
