Sugar Prices.
(San Francisco Bulletin

Reactcnary Republican newspapers tried hard to
blame the Democratic Administration for the rise in
istration credit for the fall in price? a matter
OF fact and everybody knows, the Democrats
had to do with the rise in sugar than they
had do with the rise in anything else They may
honestly ask credit for bringing down the price
since the official Investigators getting hot on
the trail of the hcarders and profteers. though in
the main the decline is due to economic conditions
and 10 overpaying the speculative game,
We told that the slump has cost somebody
$3.50, 100000, but much the somebodies must
have made more than twice that amount in the DAYS
of sugar boosting. nobody Will have any sympathy
for the losers while the general public will merely
smile it puts that extra lump into its cup

LEAGUE will retain its lead in the num-
