Eighty cents of the increase js taken out of the sugar producers and forty cents out of the. consumers, In other words, both the producers and consumers of sugar are squeezed to nearly double the profits of the little band of holders of sugar certificates, Is it worth while to retain the tariff of a half a cent a pound on refined sugar merely to swell the wealth of a few who already have too much? sil ——— A Chinese exclusion bill of the most drastic character passeed the house of representatives under a suspension of the rules by a vote of 179 to = It absolutely prohibits the coming into the United States of all Chinese per- sons except the minister from China, his attaches, servants, ete. It has been stated as coming from those high in authority in China that if this bill be- comes a law it will be followed by an edict from the Chinese government excluding all Americans from the em. pire and calling off commercial inter course with this country. But as we buy about $20,000,000 merchandize from China every year and only sell about $6,000,000 to the Chinese, this latter bit of retaliation is hardly prob- able. The principle of Chinese exelu- sion Isright, however, even if we have to pay something for it in the way of retaliation.

The present law produces a large rev enue; the important questions regard. ing its inforcement have been legally adjudicated; the presence of an honest, capable Executive at the State capital insiires a rigid enforcement of the law.
