And the republican tariff committee heinous lu any man being guilty of what It Is pleased to term "money proclivities." It docs not dellno what is meant by this term, but as applied to bankers it mint be taken to mean any man who gets enough money ahead to run u bauk, or to own stock In a bauk, or even to bo n depositor to any extent in n bank.

Ketchum OPPOSED TO FREE MIOAIt, Nothing that has been advocated bef.iro tho people for a long time has met with such universal approval as the proposition of tho republican tarill committee in congress to place all grades of foreign raw sugir, In cluding No. 18, on tho free list, and pay a bounty of 2 cents n pound on all sugar above n certain grade of fineness produced in this country. By so doing they propose, to cut oil' about llfty millions per annum col lected on the sugars Imported, and pay instead about seven millions in the shape of a bounty to stimulate tho product ofsugn- here in this country, accomplishing a net reduc tion of the rovenuo of 43,000,000, on tho bnsls of what Is now pro duced here. Practically but one state makes any sugar for commer cial purposes Louisiana and that state produces only about one-twentieth of the sugar consumed in this country. A high protectivo tarill' during the war did not succeed in building up the sugar Industry Into anything like tho pro portions that it was expected would bo tho case, mid there has been less sugar made under the lower sugar tariffs of later years than before. The nation has grown tired of being taxed for tho benefit of one state. The republican party has always operated on tho theory of putting u protective turlft on any article the production of which wits likely to he stimulated into uat.oual proportions, and In no case has such an Industry been so protected and grown into national proportions but the cost has been cheapened to the coiihumur. This bus not proven to bo the c-ise with sugar. No amount of proUctinu has been able to mater ially s.lmulate the produclioii here iu the United States, Since years tbesuar tariff haabeju a direct tax on t e people. The republican con gress In 18S1 reduced the duty some and wo have sinew then had cheaper sugar tli in ever bef.iro the war, un til th ku jar trust wjs organized a ' few . cans ago, and the consumer has been at the mercy of such pub- peoplo freo sugar, ami oiler n bounty tdl encourage tho manufacture of cano aud beet sugar. It is believed that with our favorable soil for root crops Oregon will become a great beetroot sugar producing state, and while tho sugar relincry monopo lists of New York r.nd San Fran cisco aro opposing the bounty of two cents a pound as inimic al to their Interests, we believe no state has so great an Interest in that very clause of the new tariff bill as Oregon. By tho bounty sys tem Germany, France and Austria have been converted from the larg est sugar-Importing countries to tho greatest sugar-producing and export ing countries, and there is no va'ld reason that can bo offered why American farmers and American capital cannot follow suit. We have beaten the old countries at anything In this line that wo have undertaken and wo can do It on sugar. No ono but the sugar monopolists oppose tho proposeil bounty. Their tools in. congress and a few of tho papers of the country oppose tho free sugar bill und the sugar bounty, but the peo ple want just those measures en acted into law and the republican congress will give it to them. Wo are surprised that the Salem Statesman claims that to put sugar on free list is an abandonment of tho republican protective policy. That paper undertakes to show that It was ii mistake even to place cofl'ee and tea on the free list as was done just after the war. Placing tea and cofteo on tho freo list was exactly iu accord with republican doctriuo -which has always favored placing articles of general consumption, that cannot be produced iu tho coun try on a large scale, on the freo list. It is iu accordance with that policy that the republicans proposo to place all comman sugars on the free list and let them como lu im tea and codec hnvc done for nearly twenty years. Tea aud coffee were placed on the free list as soon as the govern ment did not need the tariff from those articles to carry on tho war. In order to be consistent in opposing tho freo sugar oill tho Statesman should bo prepared t.) advocate a turiiroiften and coffee. The British budget shows Ilia, a duty Is levied on tea and cofleo in England. Rut the republican party does not be lieve in levying a tariff on articles of common consumption by. tho masses Unit cannot bo produced iu this country. Is tho Statesman opposed to the sugar bounty of two cents, which should be a stimulus to the production of sugar and a suc ceesful one if wo reason by tho anal ogy ollered In other countries? It denounces tho free sugar bill as an act of demagogery on tho authority of Clans Spreekles, the sugar king. Whatever ho husdouofor the peoplo to get them cheap sugar has been done as well for the benefit of Ills own pocket, and lias made him a millionaire. The trusts that are run iu other countries the peoplo of this country will have to suffer from, whether we hnvo an article on the freo list or not. So that it Is really no argument against taking the duty off sugar. Either the States man's encyclopedia editor was badly rattled when he wrote the editorial of Sunday or an article was clipped from one of the sugar monopolist's org ins In one of the big cities. Tho Statesman may Ignore the Journal in its editorial discussions but It can not Ignore the facts that the com mon peoplo nre conversant wlili, and then try to palm off its Ignor ance as a superior quality of rvpub-', llcanlsin, Tho people want freo sugar. if he shows any disposition to get ahead In tho world to tho extent that he has any connection with tv bank. We submit, no such discrimination Is Intenden against bankers or those connected with banks by tho consti tution. Tiie new rule laid down by such high authority us thoDima crat will not go down with any fair minded citizen. No proscription has yet been issued against bankets, and until the new revolution proposed by tho sans-cotilottes of the Demo cratic party Is Inaugurated no such law will be enforced. We do under stand that there would bo anything wrong in tho democratic parly giv ing any honors iu its power to such men as bankers Rush or Lin hie t f this city or any other men of like character, ability and standing lu financial elides. If there is any- thing that Oregon or Salem needs it is liberal influx of mnnled men and liberal treatment of such meu and or their capital, to the end Unit the rapid development of the stato nntl Its resources may take place. If the Democrat objects to tiny of the gentlemen referred to because they are national bankers, that Is another matter. The national bank ing system was crea ed by the re publican party, and wiialovcr differ ences may now exist iih t. Its merits, It certainly must be rcniembeied that tho national banking act was ono of tho safeguards of the credit aud financial honor of the nation lu Its time of peril, and then nnswerul Its purpose In a remarkably efficient niaiinemud still enjoys tho respect and confidence or tho world. Based upon tho tiational debt that is being wiped out, and created lu time of war when all financial transactions were conducted upon a much higher i-calo of margins of profit. Wo believe the national banking system must ultimately give place to a cheaper system. Everyone knows that tho mituml banks are the most pinlltablo In stitutions lu the world. The cur rency of tho people must soon bo issued direct to the peoplo without expense to them, and without tho Invention or banks, national or otherwise. Banking inust ultimately bo made free, subject only to gov ernment supervision to protect the people. These nre some of tho ten dencies of modern ideas on bank ing, und unless it can be shown by tho Democrat that the candidates referred to would bo hostile to legls. latlon iu the Inierestsof the people along some of these important lines, its objections to them, or to their "money proclivities" are- Ill-founded and nothing but demagogery ol the poorest typo.
