SUGAR REPORT

The High Cost of Living Com
mission is still receiving a great
many complaints about the high
price of sugar. The price of sugar
in Louisville ranges all the way
from lie to Csc per pound. The
dealers who sell the high price sugar
claim that the wholesaler cannot or
will not furnish Eastern sugar and
that they are charging from 18c to
zoe per pound wholesale, for the
Louisiana sugar. We cannot UNDER
stand why they cannot get Eastern
sugar at Eastern prices in this dis
trict. A great many Of the COM
plainants seem to feel that there is
a Justification somewhere and that

ambitious plan Of the packers has
been asserted, and Of the ratifica-
tons of their plan for monopoly
there seemed no end.
Large scale slaughtering, packing
and distributing has presented GER
tain definite advantages. The meat
industry was, for example, mobiliz-
ed before the mobilization of the
army began in the recent war. 1t
was ready to follow the flag, even
to precede it, with sustenance for
soldiers. Its well fabricated machin-
cry was of positive value at a time
when CELEBRITY was the all-important
factor in serving the military estab-
and other needs of the gov
eminent, and the demands of our
allies. But there is wide difference
between large scale production of
table meats and monopoly of table

in sugar and other staples but are
obliged to pay, in many cases, these
exorbitant prices to the jobber, and
that the jobber in some instances in
turn, are not profiteering, but like
wise have to pay exorbitant prices
to the producer, making it necessary
that the correction of the present
condition will have to take place at
the source of production, making it
exceedingly difficult for this COM
mission as they are most always out
side of our jurisdiction, but where
local profiteering is prevailing or
where prices are charged or based on
replacement basis instead of the ac-
tual cost, the District Attorneys will
begin prosecutions. +

PACKERS. SURRENDER

What Attorney General Palmer
terms the Surrender" of the pack
ers will interest every housekeeper
in the land, although there will be
speculation and anxiety as to
whether the consumer has won,
through the Department Of Justice,
a real victory over the high prices of
the period or a pyrrhic victory
merely.
While there may be no early re-
Election of the Surrender" in the
cost Of necessities and Injuries of
the table the triumph will remain
important if it proves a preventive
of a plan Of gaining control Of the
various industries which provide the
American table. That control Of
hotels, in addition to the producing
industries, has been a part of the

supplies, with The accompanying
strangnlaiicn Of competitive pro-
dncing enterprises, and resultant
power to fix prices BY decree.
The Attorney General says the
packers win be prevented from ex-
ercising further control over the
marketing Of livestock, and from
controlling the retail meat trade. It
eliminates them from the field of
meat substitutes, with few import
ant exceptions, '1eft for future con-
sideratiOn and appropriate action"
and therefore the price of meat is
within the control Of the people
themselves"
The price of meat may be in con-
troll of the people to the degree that
they may exercise the option Of buy

by packers, or buying meat substi-
tutes from somebody else, but that
this will mean that consumers viii
find ans means of pulling high prices
down under the conditions of the
period is not clear.
"Greater than all it establishes the
principle that no group of men .
can control the food table of the
American people. :"
The public, recalling that the DIS
solution Of Standard Oil established
a principle without accomplishing a
purpose, will hope, rather than feel
confident, that the surrender" is
not a feint, and that the packers
will not make it necessary for the
government to renew its attack
under the rights of inquiry it re-
talns in an effort to procure what
is promised in the way of withdrawal
from the industries the packers have
sought to absorb. Whether any
marked recession of prices will fol-
low the victory remains to be SEEN
1t easily may be believed that all
which might have been accomplish
ed through tedious suits to force
dissolution has been accomplished
through the Surrender. "-Courier-

suggested so artistically was for the
purpose of selling the high price
sugar in this market, therefore the
commission has started an investi-
cation which will reach from Louis
lille to Washington and will report
he result to the people of Louis
lille through the press as 1t de-
velops. We note an erroneous state
ment has been circulated with ref
erence to the sugar board. The
sugar board still has jurisdiction
over sugar and sugar prices and we
are going to request that said board
take up the Louisville situation and
use our best endeavors to get East
ern sugar into this market if the
wholesalers can be induced to handle
it. We do not believe that it is i'm
possible to get Eastern sugar that
can be sold at the usual sugar
profit for 12c pound, therefore
we are in hopes of being able to fix
a price at not more than 12c within
the near future.

DO THE BEST YOU CAN

When you've done the best you can,
Face the outcome as a man.
If you've kept your record true,
Failure leaves no stain on you.
If you've fairly fought to win
Till the last return was in;
You may keep your head erect,
You've done all that men expect.
Life demands no prize of gold
When your story shall be told;
Nor does God command your soul
To attain some far-flung goal.
Men have bravely fought and died,
Missing all for which they tried;
And yet glorified on high
By the deeds they dared to try.
Not by victory alone
Is mans earthly glory shown!
Tie who does the best he can
Has fulfilled his Makers plan.
This is all life asks Of you;
That you keep your record true;
That you do not sell your soul
Or play false to reach your goal.
Work and wait and face the fray
With such courage. as you may.
Fight for truth with all your might;
Give your utmost for the right.
And then fail or even die
But be glad you dared to try!
For you quit this life man,
If you've done the best you can.

THE CASE OF CAPT. DREYFUs.

Twenty years ago Captain Alfred
Dreyfus was being tried in France
upon the charge of furnishing Ger
s,aay with military secrets. The
case attracted universal attention,
and the fact that the accused was
an Israelite added additional inter-
est to it. Dreyfus protested from
the first that he was innocent, and
when finally convicted and sent to
French Guiana, the most unfrend!y
climate in the world, the condemned
man predicted he would be released
after a certain period and the
chargs against him proved to be
inventions of his enemies. Time
proved that his forecast was cor
rect.
Dreyfus manifested his patriotism
Turing the war just closed. He IS
new lieutenant colonel in the
French army. The Baltimore News
n referring to him says: 4
Suppose that in 1899 some rash
prophet had forecast that in twenty
years Capt. Alfred Dreyfus Of the
French army would hold the rank
of lieutenant colonel and be deco
rated with the Legion of Honor!
The second trial of this officer
charged with selling military secrets
20 Germany had just ended; and his
former sentence of life imprison-
n1ent had been committed to a ten
year term. But public sentiment
vas too strong for the French au-
shorities, and President Loubet par
loned Dreyfus, who was later al
owed to re-enter the Army. Tie
.ase that had drawn worldwide at
tention was lost sight of; and when
Dreyfus, with the rank of major
,snt his batteries into action along
he Marine in 1914, the world had
forgotten him, along with the other
sensationsc of nearly a generation
100. But France had not forgotten

POLICE WARNED NEW YORK WILL
 NOT BE FORCED

NEW YORK. Sept. 17.-R)-"This city will not tolerate such strike as was recently experienced in Bos- ton when the police force walked out," declared Mayor Hylan to a committee of New York policemen this morning. This committee pre- scented to the mayor demand asking for radical increases in pay for New York police officers and patrolmen.
 The mayor warned the committee that a strike would avaIi them noth- ing, but might cause serious con- dition to arise in this city. He told them plainly that, no matter what action the city government might take in regard to the police demands, it would not deal lightly with any attempt to call out the metropoli- tan police force.
 He gave no intimation as to the city's probable action in regard to increasing the pay, but did state that 1t would seriously consider their request. It is believd that there is no cause to fear a repitition of re- cent Boston occurrences enacted in New York.
