SUGAR BOUNTY MAKING REPBULI
CANS.
The democr i'ic papers, especial
ly those o: free trade proclivities,
are saying that the sugar bounty
"must go." They picture the
enormities of the crimes that this
bounty represents. They prate
about the governments taxing
some people and paying the money
to others. Hut the people are not
any more convinced than they were
before all these hysterical denun
ciations beirati. The fact that
sugar is free and at the same lime
the American sugar grower not
without protection, is what bothers
the democrats. There are over 00,
OO.I.M) who like the McKinley law
because it has made sugar cheaper
and the rest like it because it has
not broken down the growing in
dustry. The real animus of the demo
cratic attack is not the inherent in
justice of the bounty, nor the
amount, but the political ellect of
the act. The St. Louis Kepublic re
cently admitted that the ultimate
effect of it will be to make Louisi
ana a republican state, may do it
as early as 1 SOU. This fills its bour
bon soul with alarm. It calls upon
tin democratic house to record its
disapprobation of the whole scheme
kf the McKinley bill with all its
jn iquities. The New Orleans

THE PASS QUESTION.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has rendered a decision
upon the perplexing railroad pass
question which holds that it is un
lawful to grant free transportation
to public officers or private citizens
on the ground that their good will
is important to the corporation.
Such pass-holders, it is declared, do
not have any rights in that respect
over ordinary travelers, by reason
of their social or official positions,
and so it is an unjust discrimina
tion to carry them without pay
ment of the usual fire. The coin
mission is not willing, however, to
rule that it is illegal to grant
passes to newspaper men, hotel
proprietors and agents Jof 'compa
nies doing business with the :orpo
ration. These classes stand in a
different light under the law, it is
pointed out, and may not unreason
ably claim to be rendering a fair
return for the favor. This signi
fies, obviously, that the use of
passes to influence traffic is not
clearly forbidden, and may. per
haps, be justified as u proper busi
ness expedient. The reasoning by
which this conclusion is reached
does not entirely satisfy the intelli
gence of the average observer
when compared with the logic of
the other part of the decision; but
the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion is not supposed or expected to
be consistent, anil the law by which
it is governed permits a wide lati
tude of discretion in all cases.
There has been a good deal of
legislation with respect to railroad
legislation, but the corporations go
on granting them in greater 'abund
ance every year. They find that to
be one of the cheapest and most
effective ways to promote their
interests. The idea that they be
stow these favors for purely com
plimentary reasons under any cir
cumstances is absurdly erroneous.
They distribute them with a strict
and systematic regard for the bene
fit to be derived, and a pass never
goes out unless it promises to yield
u good return. In this way many
excellent persons who could not
possibly be bribed with money are
induced to perform friendly service
to the railroad companies. There
is no direct understaudingthat they
shall do so, but the obligation is
none the less certain,Jand the favor
is duly reciprocated when the
opportunity is presented. Legisla
tors, as a rule, accept all the
passes that are offered, and remem
ber them when they come to vote
upon railroad questions; and the
judges of the courts are not always
above the reach of such tempta
tion, as can be seen from time to
time in their decisions. It is well
understood that the practice is
abused, but no means have yet
been found to regulate it.The cor
porations shrewdlyjevade the laws
enacted to prevent them from
granting passes at their pleasure
and it is practicallyjiinpossible to
keep men from taking advantage
of a condition that seems to give
them something for nothing, when
in fact they usually pay more for it at
last than the cost of transportation
would amount to if they paid full
fare on every journey. Globe

We take pleasure in annoucing to the people of Plattsmouth aai
surrounding towns that we have succeeded in getting another line of
sample shoes. Our success with the last line was phenominal and hun
dreds were disappointed because they came too late to secure some of the
