UNKNOWN SI This seems an unfair burden to impose on a single article, , irtieuli.rly as that article is a necessity in v very household in the country. There is one phase of the sugar situation to which the Bureau of Statistics docs not and of course cannot call attention. That is the price of the commodity as affected by the tnriff. The official returns from 1S9S to 1907, inclusive, show the importation of $821,000,000 wortih of sugar, on which $549,000,000 was collided in the form of duties. This is a small fraction .short of (»7 per cent ad valorem a id puts this necessary lieu: ehold article into the class of our most heavily taxed commodities. Coffee is free, and any attempt to. transfer it to the dutiable list meetto with widespread and fully justified protest, yet in the national grocery bills the cost of sugar is three times the cost of coffee. In the total of the last ten years sugar has paid more than one-fifth of our customs revenues, or in round figure.-; $550,000,- G00 out of a total of $2,500,000,000. The Bureau of Statistics of I he department of Commerce an.l Labor has issued a statement of the sugar consumption in the country. It gives the figures for 1S>07, the latest year for which full returns are available, as a little more than seven billion pounds, or 82.G pounds for every man, woman and child in the country. This is double the per capita consumption of thirty years ago, when the price was twice what it now is. Some of the increase is probably due to the greater general prosperity prevailing during recent years, but the  price hds undoubtedly been the larger factor.

He said he accepted the sentence as pronounced; defended organized labor in its rights and was quite dramatic. Mitchell and Morrison en-dorsed Oomper's sentiments.

"Xo 'right' to publish either the libel or the slander can be sustained, except upon thy theory of a 'right' to do 'wrong'. "Who can be persuaded that the penalizing of false and malicious libels upon the integrity of honorable men, or slanders upon the character of chaste women, is an outrage upon 'the constitutional rights' of the vllitier?"Whatever in wanting, print or speech violates a legal right of another is unlawful, whether in itself or alone it accomplishes that result, or whether it be but one instrument in a concert tuned to that end. "Are decrees of courts to look for their execution to the supremacy of law. or tumble in the wake of unsuccessful suitors who overstep them and lay about the matter with their own hands, In turbulence, proportioned to the frenzy of their disappointment?"Justice Wright's arraignment of the labor leaders and others who criticise the decision of Federal courts is severe in the extreme. Among other things h said: "President Rooseveit is too good a politician to let such an opportunity pass him by, as he will have, should the higher court order the labor leaders sent to prison." "If the Court cf Appeals upholds the decision against the Federation chiefs,'' said a well known labor leader today, "I believe the President will take a hand and pardon the defenda nts. Mitchell martyrs and persecuted by Federal authorities for an unfortunate political stand. This would b» a greater burden than is desired to load upon Mr. Taft, whose hope is to cut labor' organizations free from political intrigue. The President is considering what step he can take.

Back of' it all is the n.i-w'llingness of the President that labor men over the country should be permitted to think Gompers and Only last spring Mitchell was the big labor man at the great gatherings of Governors and scientists called by the President to confer over national conservation.
