High Cost Of Sugar.

Sugar has been selling at higher
cost to the American people since
the twenty-five cent reduction in Tar
if was placed on the raw material
than it was with a Protective Tariff.
Notwithstanding the fact that war
is going on in the sugar producing
countries of Europe in the past nine
months One-half billion pounds have
been imported. At the same time
the revenue to the Government has
decreased nearly twenty millions.
With a further reduction of the Tar
if on sugar the American grower
cannot compete with the former
growers. and millions of American
capital will become idle. the people
will pay more for sugar and the
Government will be fifty millions out
without gaining in any way. The
people will pay double price for su-
gar. Higher price for the sugar and
an average of fifty cents for every
man. woman and child in the United
States per year in making up the
revenue deficiency.-Bartle
(OklaD Independent.

The War Embargo.

Inc importers are pressing the ad-
ministration to do something that
the administration cannot possibly
do. That is, to remove the shipping
embargo created by war conditions
so as to permit Europe to resume in
full the volume, of its exports to the
United States. OF course. the ad-
ministration cannot do this. II can
not persuade, much less force. Great
Britain to abandon her policy of
keeping German and Austrian COM
merce off the sea. II is doubtful If
Professor Wilson would want to do
it If he could. AS things are going,
with importations materially reduced
the war emborgo is operating as a
partial antidote to the Underwood
Free-Trade Tariff. And certainly
the administration needs something
to take the curse of that business
wrecking measure. When importers
thrive best. domestic industry thrives
worst The war embargo is not
without its bright side.

Mr.. Stanley has named several
candidates whom he says he would
like to have nominated along with
him. Among others he names Mr.
Edwards, of Louisville, son-in-law OF
the millionaire distiller James B.
Wathen. No,'doubt, he would be a
good man to have along on the
Stanley ticket. when the cash is
needed. However. what will all the
other candidates say about this slate
making by Mr.. Stanley. We notice
the name of our own "Gabe" Likens
does not appear in the list of favor
ed ones named by Mr.. Stanley. Does
Likens float too high and dry for the

DIDN'T PUBLISH THE NEWS.

Last Friday night Messrs. RingO
and Tanner. the Democratic candi-
dates for Commonwealth Attorney.
pulled off the warmest meeting at the
court house, in Greensboro, in all the
political history of Daviess county.
The meeting had been advertised by
Mr.. Tanner. as his appointment and
"for men only" inviting Mr.. Ringo
to be present. There are two alleg-
ed daily newspapers" published in
the city of Owensboro. We are in
formed that both of them had repre-
sentatives present, but, strange to
say, not one word about this meet
ing appeared in either newspaper CD
We all have some idea as to what
meeting for men only" means. We
are informed that these candidates
hurled the hottest shot, represented
by the English language, and back
ed by numerous affidavits. The de-
bate abounded in charges and coun-
ter charges during which the lie
was passed back and forth, time
and again. The entire city police
force was called out but was unable
to cope with the situation. A mes
senger was dispatched to Camp Tan
dy Ellis to ask aid from the State
Guard. but some one at this juncture
thought of the Ere Department. and
the entire force was ordered to the
court house yard. A six-inch hose
was thrust through a second story
window and after ten minutes steady
stream on the two Democratic candi-
dates for Commonwealth's Attorney.

the crowd could escape without dan

let out wall this week which looks
mighty like it sees defeat for its can
didate. The Inquirer pretends to be-
lieve that the Republicans in their
~'strongholds" are going to ask for
Democratic ballots in order to vote
Tor McChesney and thus nominate
Tor the Democrats a weak candidate.
Hasn't the editor of the Inquirer
sense enough TO know this is impos-
sibie. Known Republicans. or per-
sons registered other than Demo-
Gratis, cannot vote a Democratic bal
lot in the primary, II objection is
raised. Besides. in the Republican
-'strongholds" they have their own
hot contests fer the local Offices, and
will have no desire to vote In the
Democratic primary anyway. Since
Stanley has been so foolish as to
name a slate for himself, there are
many Republicans who do not re-
gard McChesney as the weakest can
didate by a long shot.

Our Democratic friends used to
charge that under a Republican tar

Democratic tax laws go further than
that. They have placed a tax on

ry papers required to be filed in Or

Tariff and Politics,

Here and there you hear promi-
nent Democrats remark that the Tar
III should be taken out of politics.
Yes, that would be fine thing for
the Democratic party. It il evident
that since the second trial at a Free
Trade program in 20 years these
gentlemen are beginning to see the
handwriting on the wall" They
are coming to recognize that the
Free-Trade program is bad business,
and now they advocate the taking of
the Tariff out of politics. -Carroll-

TURKS CROSS DESERT
 TO VIEW SUEz CANAL
Expedition Did Not Have 0ppOr- tunity to Damage the Fa-
 nous Waterway.

BERLIN. May 5-The Frankfurter Zeitung's correspondent in Jerusalem sends a long account of the Turkish campaign against Egypt, as obtained from an interview with General von Kress senstein, the German officer in command The account says in part:
 "The object of the expedition was forceful reconnaissance of the state of affairs in the Canal district That was all that was intended, although it was agreed that if the opportunity presented ithself 10 injure the canal it would not be neglected. The net result has been to show that an ex- petition across the desert can be carried out successfully.
 "The Turkish plans were gone through without a flaw. Neither man nor beast suffered hunger or thirst; the sick list was one iii a thousand although no tents were employed
 "A sand storm enabled the expedi- ton to approach the canal unobserved and the forces were preparing Co lay their pontoons across the canal be- fore they were attacked by the infan- try scouts. After remaining for thir- ty hours in contact with the enemy the expedition voluntarily relinquish- desert in perfect order Two machine guns, rendered useless by the sand. were left behind in the enemy's hands.
 "The expedition thought it better not to renew their attack as the num- Der of the enemys ships had greatly increased. On the return across the desert nothing was seen of the enc my except an aeroplane which hover ed over the moving troops during the first two days march. The return was made slowly in order 10 avoid iatiguing the troops.
 'The expedition suffered only slight loss, and the fire of the British war ships did it no material damage. The British, however, lost a cruiser in the Canal owing to a fortunate shot from the Turkish heavy battery. Another ! cruiser was put out of thG firNg line and there was a severe explosion on third What further damage was done could not be judged owing to the | great distance.
 'The British officers had great diff. culty in handling their men"

BOOK TELLING OF SPY DANGER CENSORED.

LONDON, May At the order of the War Office, the censor has put his ban on "Britain's Deadly PeriI", a book by William Le Queux purporting to expose the spy danger in Great Britain. Thousands of copies which had been distributed among dealers are held up and the publisher is en- joined from printing any more copies. This is done through the Defense of the Realm Act
 Le QueuN told in his advance mo- tices of alleged personal experiences to support his theory that the islands are honeycombed by German spies. In one case he tells of seeing a mysteri- ous light in lonely house on the east coast of England, where a German lived. He claims that he rigged up a flash light some distance away and, employing it one night when a light appeared in the German house, re- ceived in reply what was obviously a code message He then complains that he took this information to the War Office, which merely sent a printed acknowledgement and did nothing in the way of investigation.
 It is known that the censorship has cautioned newspapers against publish ing articles likely to inhame the Ger mans and cause retaliatory measures against English informed in Germany. Furthermore, there are many natur- alized Germans in England who are trusted by the authorities. The as- sumption is therefore made that Le Quex's book is suppressed in accord. ance with this policy.
