Tree sugar would tend to cheapep
the cost of living to one hundred
million American people.
We thought Mr.. Wilson, in err
ror, both IN departing from the
tlme-honored Democratic prime
iple of making sugar the basic
stone of a revenue tariff and in
giving those interested in the in
dustry-and those dependent on
the industry-insufficient time to
which to adjust themselves to new
industrial conditions.
But sugar is not on the free
list; there is no probability that
1t will ever 90 on the free list.
and the President and the Demo
cratic party have entirely re-
paired what the sugar interests
deemed a wrong and which was a
ground for the protest embodied
in Mr.. Martins election two
years ago.
WHY then should not the peo
ple. of the Third district weigh
the whole situation dispassiona1e
" and avoid so vain a thing as
Mr. = Martins reelection? A
considerable number of the sugar
planters themselves are at heart
Republicans and have always been
at least so far as the tariff is
concerned. But the bulk Of the
voters Of the Third district are
not Republicans. They still de-
test the Republican party for
what it has always stood in Lou-
isiana: and they have no sympa-
thy with it nationally; for it
stands for racial equality, for sec
tiOnal hatred and for class des- |
tinctions in government.
WHY should they not, therefore
return to the party whose prime
iples reflect their own political
beliefs? They can do so all the
more justifiably in the knowledge

BUCHAREST, Feb. 16.-It Is very doubtful If the Bulgarian troops can be relied upon in the event of an advance being ordered against Salonika. The Bulgarian of ficers are said to sympathize with the unwillingness of the men to fight beyond the confines of Sorvia and Bulgaria. It would not be sur prising if the Bulgars made no effort to attack Salonika. In this event 1t is improbable that the Teutons would attempt it as they would be very far from a practical base.
