because Of his insistence that we

ton" of the law of supply and de-
mand. So the Cuban sugar crop,
which might have been bought by the
government at something like six
cents per pound, and furnished to
the people at 10 or IL cents, was
allowed to fall into the hands of
spectators. The distortion of the
law of supply and demand enabled
them without effective governmental
interference to collect two or three
times fair and reasonable price.
There is the best authority for
saying the public has been mulcted
of more than $1,OOO0OO,0OO in exces-

year, absolutely without excuse or
justification. That is the sort of ad-
