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.
