Now the farmers will take a hack at
the sugar trust by way of lnjet BUgar
production.
The effect of the new tariff bill ia
already apparent Reports from every
section of the country show an imme-
diate and perceptible renewal cf
business activity and manufacturing'.
"The new tariff cuts very severely
into protection granted the sugar re-
finers under the Wilson bill." From
"Sugar Trade Journal" (ollio'.al organ
of the American sugar interests.)
"The house sugar rate is written
In the tariff bill not the corruptly
purchased senate rate. It is a great
victory for right for justica and th
people." New York World (Democra
tic.)
"If the promise of the harvest fields
fulfilled it will be hard for theorists to
persuade a thriving people that tbey
ned monetary panaceas to keep them
out of the poor-house." New York
World.
Business men of the West who had
great hopes of the usefulness of the
Trans-MUsissippi congress make no
hesitation in saying that the action of
Mr. Bryan in turning it into a free-sii-ver.convention
destroyed absolutely its
usefulness for business purposes.
Even nature seems to have joined in
the effort to convince the silver ad-
vocates of their mistake; iucreaed
gold productions in every direction
joining with good crops in this country
aud good prices to prove mat pros-
perity is not dependent upon the free
coinage of silver at a faUe ratio.
The republican (.arty is a business
party. It passed tue tariff biU more
quickly after the inauguration of P re-
sident MeKiniey than any party ever
uid after .a presidential inauguration
since the time of VVaehiuglou and it
woutd have made it a law much sooner
but for the uelay made by tne dem-
ocrats in the senate.
The sugar trust tereuiu which the
democratic and ppulietic orators anu
newspapers emitted on the passage ol
the Ding ley bill is heard lu longer. It
has beuuOe perfectly apparent cow to
those who have made auy study of the
matter that the new iaw wipes out the
advantages which the sugar trust baa
under the Wilson law.
The gold democrats are extremely
active in every part of the country.
Their recent meeting in New York
indicated great vigor and determina-
tion and very strong support from all
parts of the United States. It is quite
apparent that the sound-money wing
of the democratic party is gaining rap-
idly upon the frej coinagistj.
"The caso of the farmers has cer-
tainly been hard for several years past.
It has been a principal cause of dis-
content acd the fruitful mother of
wild finaucial schemes. With that
battermeut which is now so surely ap-
proach iug the occupation of the dem-
agogue and the Utopian dreamer will
be gone." New York World.
The completion of tha tariff bill and
the analysis of its sugar schedule by
tbe highest authorities in Washington
and New York shows the falsity of the
statements which democratic orator:
and editors have been parading that
the bill is advantageous to the sugar
trust and e-pecially shows the falsity
of the charge that it is more advanta
geous to the refiners than the Wilson
law. The bill as framed by the house
made the rate on refined sugar 12A
centa per 100 poucds or I of a cent per
pound greater than the average rate
on unrefined sugar. S. nee it is assert
ed that sugar cannot be refined for less
than 4 of a cent per pound this differ-
ence or "differential" as it is termed
was deemed fair and not in any way
advantageous to the trust. The senate
increased the differential by reducing
the rates on raw sugar and this action
was criticised as giving the sugar re-
finers whether in or out of the trust aj
advantage. The house was determined
that congress should not rest under the
suspicion of having given to the sugar
fruet any advantage and insisted upon
the return to the rate which gave a
"differential" of only 12A rents per
hundred pounds. The senate conferees
urged that an additional protection be
given to the beet sugar growers and as
a r suit the ra'.es were advanead by
the conference committee but in a
manner which left the "differential"
precisely that named by the house bill
i. e. 12 cents per hundred pounds.
This is generally conceded to be no
more than the actual cost of refining
and does not therefore give the sugar
trust any advantage. The fact that
sugar trust stock advanced incidentally
when the action of the conferees be-
came known has led to the charge that
the action of the committee was in some
way advantageous to the trust. The ex-
planation of this advance however lies
;n a uillerent uirection. xiie tugar
trust had imported during the past few
mouths over seven hundred thousand
tons of raw sugar knowing that the
amount of increase in tariff rates of
the new bill would enable them to
real zc an enormous prolit. The fact
thai the trust had this enormous
amount on hand and would probably
ma' c a p-oSt on it caused the stock to
advai.ee from time to time for it was
known that the prolit which the tru:-t
would make upon this specula-
tion would figure in the neighborhood
to 12000000 million dollars. But a
shadow wai cast up m this question of
an enormous prolit by the faci that
Secretary Cage had recomtneided to
congress that an internal revenue tux
of one cant pur pound hi placed on all
unretined sugar in the country at the
time of the enactineat of the law and
it was not until ttosa who were
watching this subject were convinced
by the report of the conference com-
mittee that tV is internal revenue tax
would cot be imposed up n the sugar
in hand that they became assured of
the enormous profits which the trust
would make upon its stock of sugar
thus accumulated. When they weve
assured of this fact it was apparent
that the dividends which tbe truct
would be able to pay in the enduing
year by reison of the advance in the
700000 tous of sugar which they held
would be enormous and the value of
its stock correspondingly alvanced. It
was this fact and this only which
caused the advance in the stock of the
sugar trust during the closing days of
the consideration of the bill. Everybody
familiar with the subject knows to i
certainty that the bill cuts off tbe spe
cial advantages which the trust hud
under the Wilson law and nobody
should be fooled by the claim of the
democrats that the advance in stocks
of the trust was an evidence that tbe
new law is advantageous toj tb.3 trust
It gives to the refiners barely the dif
ference between raw sugar and refined
sugar or the actual cost of refining
asd nothing more aud that it is con
celtd is justice.
THE 01110 UEMOCltATIC PLATFORM
Its Assertions anil Arguments Cousid
ered and Answered.
Part I.
"Kecognizmg mat tne money ques
tion is paramount to all others at ttus
time we invito attention to the fact
that the constitution namts silver and
gold together as tne mouey metals of
n.e L'niteu States.
This statement is inaccurate and in-
tentionally misleading. Tne only
place in wnich ine constitution "names
slver anil go'd together is where it
declares that "no slate shall maKe any
thing but gold and silver coin a teudcr
inpayment of debts." It does not say
that silver and gold shall both be
coiued in an unlimited manner or that
either one or bo.h shall be coined at
all but specifically gives to congress
the power to determine what tbe coin
age of the United States snail be both
as to the metals Used and their rela
tions by sajing ia explicit terms in
section e: "I he congress shall have
power to coin money aad regulate tbe
value thereof." It does not "name
silver and gold together" as the plat
form says but names gold and silver
together pointedly g.ving the prefer
ence to gold by Buying in section 10:
"No state shall tatce anything but
raid and silver coin us payment of
aebts." If anything is to be inferred
as to the relation which it intended
thai tie two metals should bear it is
clearly that gold was to be preferred.
since it is first named in the only place
here the metals are mentionid. If
the framers of the platform wanted to
bj frank why did they not follow the
wording of the constitution in their
statement and say "gold and silver"
instead of reversing it and saying "sil-
ver and gold."
'ine hrst coinage law passed bv
congress under the constitution made
the silver dollar the money unit and
admitted gold to frej coinage at a ra'io
oased upou the silver dollar unit."
The fii st coinage law clearly made
fold a standard by first Darning all the
iod coins which it said should ba of
the value of a given number of units
and sa.d that th unit should be "of
the value of a Spanish milled dollar as
the same is now current and to contain
41U grains of standard s lver. " If the I
advocates of silver insist that this act
interpieted the meaning of the consti-
tution and that this interpretation
must be followed why do they now
insist upon a standaid silver dollar
with only 412 grains of silver instead
of the 4lb' grains whicn the act specifi-
cally namtsV By their own proposi-
tion they demand a violation of what
they claim is a constitutional rt quirt -ment.
This act which they claim is an
interpretation of the constitution on 1
ihis question providt s that "every fif- '
teen pounds' weight of pure silver
shall be of equal value in all payments
with one pound weight of pure gold."
If this is an interpretation of th con-
stitution why do thse sticklers for is
observance propose to violate it by
aaving that every sixteen pounds'
weight of s lver shall now be equal to
one pour.d weight of eroidr
Would there not bo equal authority
for saving that every seventeen or
eighteen or twenty or thirty pounds'
weight ol silver shall be equal to one
pound weight of gold?' By their own 1
proposition to change the ratio they ad
mit that neitcer tne constitution cor
the first act passed under it
is binding as to the future relationa of
gold and silver as money. The fact that
this act specifically said "that every
fifteen pounds' weight of pure silver
shall be of equal value with one pound
weight or pure gold" indica'es that
gold was intended to be the measure of
value for hr.d the framers of this act
intended that silver should bo the meas-
ure they would have said that one
pourd of gold should be equal in value
10 lifr.een pounds of silver. Alexander
Hamilton who was one of the framers
of the constitution aud wh'jse re: ort
to congress was the ba-is of this act
said of the alleged unit the Spanish
dollar "that species of coin has never
had any settle i or standard value
while gold has a fixed price bv we'ght
with an eye to its fineness. This grta'-
er stability of the value of gold coins
is aQ argument of force for regarding
the money unit as having been hitherto
virtually attached to gold rather than
silver."
If the framers of this platform insist
that the first co rare act passed under
the constitution is tn exact interpreta-
tion of the meaning of that instrument
why have they and their party always
insisted that a protective tariff is a vio-
lation of the constitution when they
know that the very first act passed un-
der that constitution declared that the
tariff duties which it levied were '"for
the support of government and tbe en-
couragement aud protection of manu-
factures. "
Part II.
'We declare that the act of 1873
demonetizing silver without the know-
ledge and approval of the American
pioplo" etc.
The act of 1873 did not
demonetize silver as is claimed by
litis sentence of the platform. The
;ct says itself in specific terms that
"this act shall not be construed to
affect any act done right accrued or
penalty incurred under former acts
but every such right is hereby saved"
thus clearly stating that it did not
demonetize any of the coins author-
ized prior to that date while every one
of the four hundred and fifty million
standard silver dollars coined since the
passage of that act is an! has constant-
ly been a fail legal tender and none of
them is or has been demonetized.
The act of 1S73 was not passed "with-
out tbe knowledge and approval of the
American people" as tin platform as-
sorts. It was submitted to congress in
April. 1870 printed thirteen times
iliscns-ed at intervals until January 1
1873 (- early three years) the debates
ind ilisitiss'ons filling 144 pages of the
ona resslonal rec.or l . which was pub-
lished daily during the sassions in
which it was discuss-d. Tbe American
people had ample opportunity to know
all of its provisions and that there was
no popular disapproval of it is shown
by the fdet that 112 of the members of
the house which passed it were re-
elected many of th-m continuing to
serve in congress to the end of their
lives while several are still membc-s
of that body notably William M.
Stewart of Nevada who voted for the
ill and who in a speech delivered on
June 12 1874 said: "The laboring
man and the producer is entitled to
have his product and his labor meas-
ured by the same standard of value
that measures your national deot. You
require from the laboring man gold to
pay the interest on your national debt
which is i ight which can not be avoid
ed if you mean to save national honor;
but then give him the same mouey
with which you pay that debt. The
question will never be decided until
you determine the single question
whether the laboring man is emitied
to have a gold dollar it he earns it. or
whether you are going to cheat him
with somethirg else."
"We declare than the act of 1S73
has resulted in the appreciation
of gold."
It has no! ' resulted in the apprecia-
tion of goH" because gold has not ap
preciated. Anyarticlo "appreciates '
in value only wbeo thre is an increas-
ed demand for it either because of the
reduction in the quantity or an enlarg
ed net d for it in the current affairs of
life. The figur-s of the best statisti-
cians show that tbe gold coic of the
world and the total money of the world
have increased mucn more rapidly
than th e population since 1873 hence
the absurdity of the claim that it has
' apprecia'ed" in value as the amount
for each individual in the world has
greatly increa-ed since the passage of
the act in question. The goid money
of the world has more than doubled
since 1873 the silver money of the
evorld has nearly or quite trebled in
that time and the pap-r money has also
increased largely while the popula-
tion of tbe world has increased o ily 2-j
per cent in the same period. It is thus
evident that the total amount of money
for each individual in the world is
much greater than in 1873 and that
there can thus be no increased per
capita demand for gold and hence no
appreciation' in its value while the
fact that a large proportion of the
business of the world is now performed
with checks drafts and other forms of
credit without the direct use of money
further reduces the demaud upon gold.
The mines of the world produce more
old today than they produced of gold
and silver tosether in 1873 tbe silver
production of today is nearly three
times what it was in 1873 and the
amount of silver now annually coined
is more than was produced Jrom the
mires of the world in 1873. The num
ber of silver dollars coined in the
United States in the fiscal year just
ended was two and a haif times as
many as in the entire history of the
mints prior to 1873 and the totcl num-
ber of full legal tender dollars coined
by our mints since 1873 is 5(1 timea as
ma-iy as were coined in the entire
history of the mint prior to the act of
1S7J.

THE TERRITORIAL FAIR.
The Outlook Most Promising fr a
Gooil Exhibition.
The Territorial Fair association are
out for a big time this year. It has a
large executive committee of the best
element in that live city in charge of
the work.
The resources of the territory are to
receive more than usual attention this
year as is shown by the large increase
in the prizes for county and district
exhibits in the field of agriculture
horticulture and mining. It has put up
$3o0.00 for the best and largest collec-
tion of fruit grown in any county ia
New Mexico and Arizona the first
prize to be $200 00 the second $100.00
and the third $50.00. The best collec-
tion of fruit raised by any one exhibitor
will be Jrio.OO for tbe first prize and
$10.00 for tbe second. For the best and
largest collection of field farm and
garden products 'grown in any one
county the first prize will be $125.00
the second $75.00 and the third $25.00.
For the best general collection of ores
from any county in New Mexico aDd
Arizona the tirsf. prize will be $200.00
the second $100 00 and the third $50.00.
For the bast cabinet collection of ores
belonging in New Mexico and Arizona
the lirst prize will be $25.00 and the
second $15.00. The association will
also put up purses for individual exhi-
bits n all tne various products of the
country.
llie executive committee has made a
great innovation this year in -the cus-
tomary program in the speed rin? and
held sports and have simply adjusted
things in this line to meet the de-
mands of the people who patronize the
fair.
There will be three or four running
rares for blood ea?h day of tbe week.
No one can afford to miss the races this
year.
The experience of the association last
year convinced it that a ball tourna-
ment and bicycle races were among
the popular things with the people.
The association will therefore put up
$1500.00 for a ball tournament to be
opeu to the world the mouey to be di-
vided into four prizes; the first prize
$.100.00. the secoud $400.00 the third
$300.00 and the fourth $200.00. No
charge will be made for entering the
bail teams in the tournament but the
clubs entering will be required to
uiake their entry and file the nam s of
the players on or before August 15 at
uiidnitfht. $000.00 will go to the fast-
est riders. A complete program of bi-
cycle races will be issued in a few
days.
The secretary is in correspondence
with the railroad officials to secure ex-
ceptionally low rates to the fair this
year aud is also urging tbe Itailroad
Co. to give homeseeiers excursion
rates from the eastern states to Albu
querque during the fair with thirty
davs to look at the territory if they so
dosire and return home on their exc: r-
sioti rates.
The executive committee believe
that with the co operation of the Kail
road Co. in trettintr homeseekers to
visit New Mexico during the fair.
where can be seen the resources of our
territory as they will be exhibited the
fiircan ba made of great practical
value to the territory. The Territorial
Fair association therefore appeals to
the citizens of New Mexico to join
with it in prepariug a great exhibition
of Ne Mexico's wonderful resources
that will be a credit and lasting benefit
to the territory.
