Spain will charge ua the full amount of the customs duties on tlu relief supplies sent to Cuba to nave Amer icans from starving. There In one consolntlon about this fact. The United States Is not so bankrupt that It can- not. pay It. The Sugar Scandal. It Is not dllllcult to excite suspicion 'is to thd motives actuating men In public office. An III report, no matter how untrue, always travels faster and finds more believers than a good one. The United1 States senate as a body ha In late years fallen Into popular disfavor, very largely by reason of the circulation. of sensational rumors to Its discredit composed of nine parts ex aggeration to one part truth. For this reason tho conservative citizen, who wishes to bo fair,, will be slow to accept much that Is said Impugning the hon esty of Influential membeis of the sen 'nte. Hut af this time the volume of rumor connecting certain senators In a dis graceful way with the so-called sugar , trust has reached such dimensions and ha3 by eminent Indorsement gained such a degree of plausibility that for once dlscreet'oplnlon can coincide with Senator Tillman In demanding a thor ough investigation. The men who di rect attention to suspicious circum stances tending to establish an undue Influence on the pnt of thu Havemeyer compnny over national legislation are 'not all mere babblers or sensational ists. The chorus of accusation has grown until It numbers within Its ranks many of the most trustworthy citizens In the circle of political prominence, among the number being no less a per sonage than the leader of the Repub lican majority In the house of repre sentatives, Mr. Dlngley. The editorial which we reproduce on this page from the Washington Star presents the gen eral Indictment In concise languager. It must be understood as this excerpt Is read that the Star Is a Journal of tho highest character, from whose col umns sensationalism und demagoglsm are effectually barred. The fact that It Is Impelled to take so determined a stand against the aggressions of the sugar coterie In legislation Is certainly significant. If only a part of the current arraign ment of a portion of tho membership of the senate Is true, there Is ample necessity for a probing of tho scandal which will go to Its very core. Mere condemnation of tho trust will not prove effective. There must be a se rious effort on the part of the senate to reach the guilt which now, by all accounts, sits defiant within Its circle, be tho consequences what they may. Spain Is likely to learn that It takes more than big words to keep an army In the field. All Effective Rebuke. The words of Secretary Gage at Cincinnati last week constitute an ef fective reply to the recent complaint of Mr. Wanamaker at the adminis tration's alleged "betrayal" of the peo ple. "If any of you," said Mr. Gage, "harbor the suspicion that tho admin istration, but Just now installed Into tho responsibilities of high office, has forgotten, or Is likely to forget, the mandate of the people, whose voice In behalf of honest money and sound finances Vang out loud and clear In No- .vember last, put that suspicion aside. It Is unjust and unfounded. In good time and in proper order 'the affirma tive evidences of my declaration will appear. .In the meantime, my friends, do your part to help those charged with legislative and administrative du ties." This is nt once dignified and se vere. Those acquainted with tho facts do not need to bo told that the lb-pub-llcan party throughout the last na tional campaign ottered as its first bid for popular endorsement the pledgo that It would make the government , helf-supportlng by means of a protec tive revenue tariff. This pledge it is proceeding to redeem as rapidly as it can. It already has fulfilled another lmiwrtnnt pledge by the appointment of a commission to solicit an additional International bl-metalllo conference. In each of the'se directions it has acted .promptly, because in each direction It -had given a positive and specific . j)romIse'. As to currency revision it ""'.made no such definite agreement nor do the conditions require nn Imme diate 'opening off this issue. The cur rency which we now have has given , satisfaction far mora than a score of 'jiyoars, during the greater part of which 4'Ume there has been a high average "of prosperity; and any proposition looking to a recasting of It may prop erly be deferred until it Is clear In What direction It can bo Improved. Complaint Is natural when times aro f poor, but wo do not expect It to come at this time from Republicans of In telligence who know that their party, through Its executive and legislative) representatives ut Washington, Is do-"lng-its Very utmost to achieve the pur poses for1 which It last fall sought und received a vote of publlo confidence. . The Traction company certainly handled tho multltudo on Saturday lri,a masterly manner. "The1 future. Is not dark with fore twdlngsr It W Illuminated with ra . tjonot hope. The revival of Industry li .nturr and with establishment of a revenue law sufficient to bring Into ho treasury an amount adequate to meet th jeasonablo nueds of our govern 'rnii, nd with tho establishment of our financed on a sound and enduring basis, nothing now foreseen can de lay the recovery of past losses and the Inauguration of a new forward move ment along thn lines of material ad vancement and social progress." Sec retary layman J, Gage, at Cincinnati. . --- - - The wors,t thing yet proved against Lawyer Wlntersteen, of Hloomsburg, was the company he kept. Unfortu nately that was bad enough to render almost any accusation credible. Not n Comprehensive Remedy. In view of the vast body of state legislation biennially rushed through tho legislature, much of it unknown to more than a minute minority until af ter It become operative1, the Meadvllln Journal suggests that no bill asldo 'from the appropriation bills' should be come effective until It has passed two successive legislatures It thus pv plnlns It point: "If all the Dills passed by one legis lature were required to be printed In cheap pamphlet form for wide distri bution throughout the fttate, so they can he studied by the people until tha meeting of the next legislature, and the members were 'choren wfth direct reference to the Issues Involved In the proposed laws, a great fctep would bo taken In the right direction of better legislation and of avoiding a great deal of crude and ustltss legislation. It would amount to the referendum, while avoiding nearly all the objections to that method of making laws. It would nvo'd, ats.0, the necessity of the pro posed legislative commission to revise all laws before, passage, because the whole people of the state, lawyers and laymen, farmers and business men, would be a. commission on revision of laws. It would take two years longer to pass a law, It Is true, but It would be so much better when passed and so much of weak, Injudicious and useless legislation would be avoided, It seomB almost as though the people could eas ily endure what little Inconvenience might result for tho sake of the great benefits Ahlch would follow such a reform. It would be applying to lawmaking- the same principle which has long obtained in amending the consti tution, dispensing only with the direct vote of the people." In theory this proposition looks at tractive, but from a practical stand point it 19 open to the objection that the pamphlet laws would not bo read, and that two years of time in evory four would be wasted to comparative ly little purpose. Our contemporary rests its plea for pamphlets on the con tention that the newspapers do not give the people complete Information concerning matters in transit through tho legislature. In a sense, of cours?, they do not; that Is to say, they don't print every bill, but the best papers do print as much concerning legisla tive affairs as trie average reader cares to know. The Philadelphia Press for example, has repoited tho salient propositions arising during the present session at Harrlsburg with exceptional lulness, fairness and accuracy; anil In a more limited manner, the Associated Press, whose reports appear In The Tribune, has done the same. It Is not tho people's lack of Infor mation ns to the verbiage of proposed legislation that operates to their dis advantage as much as It Is the lack of good solid conscience and character In many of tho men whom they elect to represent them. They can procure better legislation whenever they will take the pains to elect better law makers. Commenting upon Judge Willson's decision relative to tho right of way rights belonging to wheelmen, Consul Doyle, of Philadelphia, says: "There Is no law In tho statutes which will com pel a lighter or unloaded vehicle to waive Its rlcht of way In favor of a heavier or loaded vehicle. I believe, of course, that the element of politeness and courtesy should enter, and that under ordinary circumstances a bicy cle rider should turn out of the way for a heavy team, Just as a young person would step aside before an old one, but there Is no positive law to that ef fect." That depends upon who tries the case. An Inquiry among the registers of wills of Pennsylvania reveals that an astonishing shrinkage In bequests of personal property. has been taking place In the past three years. Instead of adding a million and a quarter of dol lars to the revenues of tho common wealth, as was expected, the recently enacted Inheritance tax Is likely to raise not to exceed $600,000 per annum. This Is urged at Harrlsburg as a rea son for Increased taxation, but It Is really a reason only for Increased economy. Those western Republicans vho wish to send representatives to the Detroit convention of the National league of Republican clubs will readily see the propriety of selecting delegates In sympathy with the Republican na tional platform. The party position Is favoruble to bimetallism on an Interna tional basis but opposed to It on an In dependent basis; and voters who ob ject to thlB attitude may very properly seek other alliance?. The proposition which Is under con sideration at Hnirlsburg to cancel tho prohibition on the sale of oleomargar ine and permit It to be sold In Penn sylvania upon payment of a tax of three cents a pound indicates a glim mer of light In the legislative mind, but only a glimmer. If oleo Is a safe nnd nutritious food product, why 6hould It be taxed while butter goes' free? Wherefore this discriminate? Governor Leedy of Kansas Is one of a syndicate of Populists which de clares that It will build a railroad from central Nebraska through Kan sas, Oklahoma, Indian Territory nnd Tpxas to the gulf. Each community through which tho road Is to pass Is to hold stock and havo a voice In the management. The history of this experiment, 'should It ever havo one, would probably bo Instructive. Doesn't It, by the way, ako a surpris ingly large number of Spanish eoldlera to keep Cuba'paclfird? It Is explnlned that the porto has not directly objected to the appointment of Dr. Atigell as our minister to Turkey, but ha Intimated a deslro to know whether Dr, Angell ver used uncom- pllmohtary language In relation to tho sultan. If this be tho test of accepta bility at Constantinople, wo might an well closft our embassy there. Nono hut u deaf mute cculd 111! It. "Two things," says the Providence Journal, "afo absolutely sure In this Cuban business. We don't want to go to war with Spain and we don't want to annex Cuba." One thing additional Is equally sure. Wo don't want Spanish misrule In Cuba to go on much longer. .- in . A favorable report has been made to tho legislature on the bill to prohibit tho playing of base ball and foot ball on Sundays. The bill's penalty Is a fine of $25 or imprisonment not ex ceeding ten days. This Is nono too severe and the bill should pass. The S?nal? and ih? Sqgar Triisf Frem the Washington Star. Tho proposition that -tho Sugar Trunt stands before congress as other business Interests stand, slrr.ply asking for the pro tection guaranteed to nil under a po'.lcy of protection, is most absurdly untenable. Tho Sugur Trust, both In Its power In the business und tho political world, and In tho audacity of its operations, Is a Trust npnrt, and is rapidly assuming the pro portions of a most dangerous public ene my. If It l not checked, nnd that very promptly, t?sre will be no limit to its nehemea or to Its corrupting power. A dlstlnetlvo quality of this Trust Is Its oynlcal franknoss. It is bold and un blushing. It knows what It wants, and It makes straight for its quarry. It stands In with both parties. It helps tho Democrats In Democratic states, and thu Republicans In Republican states. It stands to win, if it can make Itself sure of Its men, no matter which side tri umphs. It3 performance In this particu lar recalls tho Irishman at aca, who, In 'a storm, began his prayer In this wlso: "Good Lord, or Good Devil, for I know not Into whost hands 1 may fall." In a political storm tho Sugar Trust propitiates both sides with offerings; for It knows not Into whose hanJs It may fall. So far In its career, It has fallen only Into hands which hove fed It bountifully. Hut tho Sugar Trust In Its operations here should bo brought to book. This is demanded in tho Interests alike 'of the people and of a. sound legislative morality. This congress cannot afford to do the Sugar Trust's bidding. It cannot afford to write into tho tariff bill now taking final shape a sugar schedule which the Trust desires, and which If enacted Into law will moke It the dwpot of the sugar market In tho United States for years. II y that net tho Republican partyt would publicly plead guilty 'to tho strongest in dictment that even the Populists have drawn, and would lose- the next congress elections by a larger majority than the Democrats lost those after permitting the Trust to havo Its way in shaping the su gar schedule of the Gorman-Wilson bill. Nor Is this all. Tho Sugar Trust Is cs nylng to help ehapo the foreign policy orthe government. It Is behind the effort to abrogatn the treaty with the Hawaiian Islands, ami It opposes the cause of hu manity for Cuba for fear Cuban sugar un der c new government for the Island would bo admitted Into this country upon freer terms than now exist. This is a bold flight for a business organization, but tho Sugar Trust has shown Itself to be capablo of It. This manifest duty rests with tho sen ate. Three years ago the Trust made Its play for tho senate. A Democratic ways nnd means committee of the house having adopted a sugar schedule which the Trust was not satisfied with, the Trutt worked upon tho senato and got what It wanted. History has In part repeated it self. A Republican ways and means committee of tho house has adopted a sugar schedule which tho Trust does not like, and has refused to nbrogato the treaty with Hawaii. ThoTrurt appeals to tho senate. Sha.ll tho Trust win there the second time, with tho scannlai attaching to tho first transaction filling the air with a malodorous revival? Could tho senate afford such a thing? THE NEW GAME LAW. Harrlsburg Letter In the Sun. Governor Hastings has approved the new gamo bill, and It Is now a law. Those versed In all matters relating to the sub ject of game say this Is one of tho bent measures for the protection of game In the United States. It represents the Joint labors of tho State Sportsmen's associa tion, with a membership of about 8,000, and the board of game commissioners. About six years ago the State Sports men's association, at the Instance of James II. and It. M. F. Worden, of Har rlsburg, assisted by State Zoologist War ren, began to agitate for an improvement In the game laws. Statistics were collect ed by these men and their friends to show the necessity of action. The data collected gave conclusive proof that If the state of Pennsylvania did not soon enact better laws for the protection of her game and Insectivorous birds these creatures would be exterminated by pot hunters, snarers, egg hunters, and hat bird taxidermists. Early In the present year, when Governor Hastings appointed tho members of the game commission, a meeting of this body was called promptly at Harrlsburg. A consultation was had with representatives of the State Sports men's association, and It was determined that tho two organizations should unite and work earnestly for the passage of tho mil wnicn una now become law. To give briefly some Idea of the great destruction of animal life in this state, It can be stated that tho statistics col lected through the efforts of the Btate Sportsmen's association, the game com mission, nnd tho state Zoologist, show that about $200,000 worth of game, birds, and mammals Is killed annually In Penn sylvania and exposed for sale In market places. Tho killing of Insectivorous birds of bright plumage for women's headgear has also been carried on to a ruinous extent, a taxidermist In ono of the largo cities having collected in four years fully 20.000 bird skins for the millinery trade. Men skilled In all the arts of the poachers of the Old World havo Introduced various kinds of snares and traps .which have been used so successfully in certain sec tions of Pike and other counties In this Btato that ruffed grouse and several oth er kinds of birds have been almost wholly exterminated there. One firm In Susque hanna county, from last September to Dec. 31, purchased 3,000 pheasants, 1.C00 quail, 30,000 squirrels and a larger num ber of rabbits. In the northeastern see tlon of Bradford county, three market hunters In 1S00 killed and shipped to tho markets of tho Umpire state 1,000 pheas ants, and In the western part of Brad ford county ono pothunter In tho same year killed over 600 of these birds. In Venango county a pothunter. In the sea son of U00, slaughtered and marketed 700 ruffed grouse. A professional hunter In Luzerne county In 1806 Is said to have killed S04 pheasants within a radius of thirty miles of Wilkcs-Barro and to havo sent them to tha New York 'markets. This samet man In 1SS3. assisted during 'a portion of tho gunning season by two of his sons, killed over 1,200 of theso gamo birds. In tho county of York there were marketed from five townships last year 1.800 quail, 2,800 cotton tails, nnd 3.000 wild ducks. The value of the gamo killed last season and sold In the county of Dauphin Is said to havo been 118. 000. Tho bill which has Just received tho governor's approval will eertalnly do away with the trade of pothunters and snarers, as well as tho murderous occu patlon of the hat bird hunter. Section two deals with the protection of song and Insectivorous birds, and provides that pereons who deglro to collect birds, their nests and eggs or game mammals for strictly sclentlfio purposes must obtain certificates from the board of game com missioners. The money derived, from these permits, which heretofore have been Issued by tho prothonotarles of the counties, at a cost of $1 each a year, will ho devoted to tho uso of tho game commission. From this source a revenue of icrhap8 $2M to (300 annually will be obtained. As there havo been numerous complaints In recent years about tho great destruction of nests and eggs of gamo birds by men who said they held permits to collect for sclentlfio purposes, tho law has been so framed that the game commissioners cannot, even If they so desire, glvo a permit which will en ablo any person to collect game birds or their nests and eggs out of season. The bill prohibits tho salo of game of all kinds killed In tho state; likewise the re movnl of gamo from tho state. This last, provision Is Intended to restrain a class of non-residents who live In adjoining states and come over the Pennsylvania lino to shoot. Transportation companies are prohibited from carrying game out of tho state, but they are not Interfered with In carrying gamo killed In other states through this state. Game dealers of Pennsylvania can purchase and sell all the game they wish which has been killed In other states. Heretofore, in con sequence of deficient game laws. It has been found practically Impossible In many cases to do anything with a class of game-law violators who had no prop erty and who. when arrested; took ad vantage of tho Insolvent law and would escape punishment for their misdeeds. Tho new bill provides that if men kill gnme illegally they will bo put In Jail, If their fines aro not paid, one day for every dollar of the fine Imposed. The use of ferrets Is common In a good many parts of Pennsylvania, but a man now found with n ferret In his possession when hunting -rabbits will bo Jlablo to sovero fines. Tho framcrs of the bill originally tried to establish a uniform season for the tnk- ing of nil game, but as there wcro many diverse opinions among the sportsmen as to tho wisdom of this It was abandoned. Under this new bill woodcock can be taken in July, and from Oct. 5 to Dec. 13. Inclusive; deer in November; rabbits from Nov. 1 to Dec. IE, inclusive. The seasons, ns fnr as they relate to wild ducks, reed birds, snipe, plovers, doves, nnd wild pigeons, are as under tho old laws. Pheasants, squirrels, quail, and wild turkeys can be taken legallv from Oct. IS to Dec. 15. Mongolian or English pheasants, which have been Introduced In a few localities with a view of nat uralization, cannot be killed for tho next five years. To prevent tho professional hunter and market shooter from slaught ering great quantities or gamo In a lim ited time, a limitation has been placed on tho number of birds, eto., which a gunner may kill in a day. It Is as fol lows: WoSrtlcock and pheasants, 10; quail. 15; wild turkeys, 2. NO person Is allowed to kill moro than two deer In any one season. CALENDAR FUR JUNE. 1.
