SUGAR TRUST PROFITS.
John I)e Witt Vhrnrr Make* .Some Entl
I > mate* and Score* the Trust.
Ex-Congressman John De Witt War- !
ocr is one of the best posted men in this '
country on sugar tariffs. When in cou- !
giess, he carried the house for free sug1
nr. In a recently published statement j
he estimates the net protection to the
trust given by the Aldrich schedule at
from 85 cents tp $1.14 on every 100
pounds of refined sugar.
Without attempting to give bis arpn- ,
meut as to each of tho ways iu which
i the trust would be protected we give
bis summary of trust profits as follows: i
J Bpedflc differential lU(94Q.40-r
, Thirty-five per cent ad valorem
differential 0. 0.21
Countervailing duty, say 0-0>j$ O.iiS
1 Additional by substitution of 73
per cent ad valorem for specific
duties in low grades 0.09? 0.13
j Total ?O.S8@S1.14 j
j In tho vast majority of cases, however, th?
; ictual result i* between 43 and *40 cents per 100 (
! pounds net protection to th? trust, and it is ;
i Iranrncticable so to combine circumstances as .
; to bring this below 4b cents or above 6b cent#
for any considerable amount.
As an item of tariff taxation tbe sugar
schedule is id$al from the protectionist
standpoint Sugar is tbe odo article !
used by poor and rich to an equivalent
extent, and a tax on which therefore
falls most heavily on the poor in proportion
to their ability to pay it Its
production and distribution are control- i
led by a concern which ia at once tbe
greatest of our mean trusts and tbe
meanest of our great ones.
It ia consistent therefore that on this
one article there should be levied more
than one-tbiTd of our total tariff taxa!
tioo, and that our people should be burdened
by a tax of more than $90,000, 000
that realises less than $70,000,000
far the treasury and more than
$20,000,000 for the sugar refining combine,
while tbe same com bine is enabled
to net an additional $10,000,000 by tbe
opportunity given it to import at present
duty rates raw sugars from which it
can make reonea to De soia oj it oauer
the enhance J price assured it by the
proposed Aldrich schedule. The net
"protection" of from 46 to 60 centi per
100 pounds given the trust on its refining
process alone should be considered
as sufficient when we remember that
the labor cost of this process is slightly
| less than cents per 100 pounds?that
is to say, Senator Aldrich, in behalf of
American labor, proposes unduly to tax
I wage earners in order to give the trust
from five to seven times as much "protection"
as it pays for all the labor involved.
Next to the wage earner the fanner
ia dear to the protectionist heart, and
he is therefore equally favored by the (
sugar schedule. Of late years through- I
out the eastern and middle and many of |
the central states the competition of the |
far west has driven our farmers from
grain raising into fruit culture. This

exports of canned goods?jams, preserves,
eta?in which we ought to supply
the world, the business of fruit raisI
ing has. in its turn, become almost profitless.
And poverty is now assured to
those who are dependent upon fruit culture
by the proposed tax of two cents
a pound on sugar This intveases
by from 60 to 75 per cent tbe article
j whioh would make up from 40 to 76
per cent of tbe total weight of tbe jama,
eta, tbe export of which might insure
living prices for tbe surplus fruits, but
which is now praotically prohibited.
And this is "a government of the
people, by tbe people and for tbe peo- |
pla" Who are "the people?"
