ceived a decided setback by reason
Of the house of representatives agree
ing almost unanimously to the pass
age of the Kitchen bill repeating the
free sugar proviso of the Underwood
tariff law. This action, reversing the
position which the democratic party
took in it's revision of the tariff two
years ago, is fathered and actively
supported by the administration as a
means of bolstering UP vanishing Gus
toms revenues. Under the pressure
Of political necessity in a campaign
year, it has been unanimously endors-
ed by the democratic members of the
ways and means committee and sup
ported by the house democrats in cau-
Gus with scarcely a dissenting vote.
Thus it looks very much as though the
support that the democratic party
gave to the refiners in the past is
about over, and as though a weapon
with which the re6ners expect to de-
stroy their domestic competitors was
to be snatched away just when it was
almost in their hands.
Failure Of Free Sugar
While the urgent need of more rev.
enue undoubtedly is the main reason
for the action of the administration in
deciding to continue a duty on sugar,
it is no secret in well-informed politi-
cal circles here that the president and
his advisors have been greatly disap-
pointed by the failure of free sugar
to prove a popular drawing card, and
by the fact that sugar prices have
been higher instead of lower since the
tariff was reduced by the Underwood
law. 1t is reported here that the rep
resentatives of the refiners are plan
ming a last desperate fight in the SEN
ate to prevent the repeal of the free
sugar clause, or else, failing that, to
put a consumers tax of a cent a pound
on all sugar grown in the United
States, which would accomplish the
object of the refiners just as well by
driving American sugar producers out
of business. 1t is o believed posi-
BILE, however, that the small coterie OF
democratic senators who will support
this plan can prevail against the
strength of the administration and the
democratic majority in the house.
Washington's Farewell Address
Following the usual custom Wash
ington's farewell address" was read
before congress on the great mans
birthday. Either the document Is get
ting a little stale, or the spirit of APP
probation is running down, since it
was necessary to invoke the rules
three times in order to keep a quorum
on the floor of the house. But George
Washington was used to being snub-
bed in his life time, and a real estate
dealer is reported to have told him
that he would never have amounted
to anything anyway, If he had not
married a rich widow" SO, If his
spirit was lowering over the Capitol
on the twenty-second, there likely
was no feeling of resentment.

Stevens Bill is of Great Importance
About 215 members of the lower
house of congress have gone on re
cord in favor of the Stevens bill, and
its passage appears almost assured
Notwithstanding this fact there have
been no hearings on the bill, and the
committee on interstate and foreign
affairs, which should be the tribunal
for preliminary arguments, since the
measure was referred to it, has beer
inactive. The friends of the measure
have smoked out the opposition. and
now the price-cutting department
stores and mail order houses have
combined with the trading stamp peo
pie in an open organization, and are
in the fight. This rather clears the at
mosphere, since 1t has been plain to

many years, that the cutting of prices
on nationally advertised goods, has
been a great trick by which the bust
ness of the small town has been
drawn to the large cities. Price regu

bill, is most certainly in the interests
of the small town. the small mer

Anthony, Nov. 29-Last Friday
morning we noticed a procession of

Ward Griffin and sister, Miss Ossie,
Miss Grace Milligan and Miss Una
Shealy motored to the home of Mr..
Hense Griffin near Mcintosh and spent
pleasant time and enjoyed good
dinner, returning home feeling bet
ter for the trip.
Quite a number are attending the
fair at Ocala from here.
Miss Mittie Padgett of Lawtey is

Burt Padgett, our efficient agent.
A box for the orphanage at Enter
prise is being prepared at the par

The temperance meeting at the
Methodist church Sunday night was
well attended. The church was almost
filled by time to commence service,
at the hour of o'clock. The pro-
gram was well rendered. The music
was especially good. Miss Mabel
Gates presided at the organ. George
Brown, Homer Eaton and John Rape
carried the male voices in the choir.
