CUBA AND A SUGAR TARIFF Atbirt Omar Itji Iilud Plaitori 0i lUid IttTj Ditj. PAID IT FOR YEARS AND PAMPERED Strong Point Mnrtc In Favor ot Protec tion for licet Suarnr Indnstrjr ' Annlnst Competition from Outsider. Tho San Francisco Bulletin publishes an Interview with Robert Oxnard, the vice president of tho American Boot Sugar com pany, which brings out n phono ot tho Cuban sugar tariff situation, whloh is per haps the strongest point yet made In the arguments of those opposed to the rcmovnt of tho tariff on Cuban raw sugars. Mr. Oxnard's remarks are of especial Interest to tho peopto of Nebraska, also, us tho beet BUgar Industry of this state has reached the point where It has demon strated Its great Importance to tho farming Interests of the stato Mr. Oxnard said! "There is one point regarding this Cu ban matter which has an important bear ing on tho position taken by those who favor reciprocity from tho sentimental side. I havo not seen any mention mado of It In any of the articles that havo come under my notice. It Is this; Prior to tho last revolution In Cuba, which led Up to our war with Spain, and which paralyzed all tho Inlustrlcs of tbo Island, tho sugar Industry of Cuba was In a highly prosper ous Btato as evidenced by a steady in crease In the amount of its production, which aroso from an avorago of about half a million tons of twenty-five years ago kto over one million ono hundred thousand in 1894. This result was obtained In spite of a crushing load of debt and taxation fastened upon the Island by tho Spanish government. It was also obtained whllo paying the full amount of Import duties of Cuban sugar Into tho United States, whero 95 per cent of tho Cuban crop wns marketed. I mention this latter figure as It disposes of tho argument falsoly ad vanced that wo owe n reduction ,'lnf du ties to Cuba because she has been de prived of the Spanish market. Spain al ways levied duties against Cuban sugars In order to foster her own homo Industry. Both beet and cano nro cultivated In Spain nnd tho Komo Industry, practically sup plies tho entire homo market. Ttelleved of Spanlnh Opprennlon. "Wo havo now relieved Cuba of tho en tire load of tho Spanish debt and tho crushing burden of Spanish taxation Im posed to pay tho cost of, tbo soldiers that Spain maintained thero to garrison .the, Island. And yet this Industry,, which, as I havo shown, was highly prosperous under tho previous advorse circumstances, Is not satlsflod with tho Improved condi tions that we havo created for It, but asks to bo allowed advantages that, If granted, will surely check, If not destroy, our promising beet BUgar' Industry. This result would not bo attained Immediately, but through tho expansion ot tho Cuban crop to the point whero it would supply all tho needs of tho United States in tho way of sugar, at a prlco with which our labor and other conditions would not al low us to compete During this period, when the Cuban sugar industry was en tering our markets free, and yet not fully supplying them, tho cost to tho United States of tho concessions asked for would bo something enormous, "Using figures published In the Statls tlcal Journal of Wlllett & Gray, wo And that the probablo consumption of sugar In tho United States this year Bhould bo 2,360,685 tons. Of this quantity 1,000,000 tons in round numbers will come from American sources free of duty, leaving 1, 360,685 to come from othor sources and on which duty Is paid. The average duty as sessed Is $36 por ton. "The crop ot tho Island of Cuba for' tho coming year Is expected to bo something llko 900,000 tons. It this ,wero admitted free1 of duty thero would still be 460,585 tons to coma from other sources and on which duty would havo' to bo paid. "It is n well known law ot economics that tho prlco of all sugar In this country would bo fixed by the cost of these 460,585 tons, plus tho duty that thoy would havo to pay to get Into this country In order to compete with tho duty-freo sugar. "The effect of letting Cuban sugar come In free would thcrcforo' bo to present to tho Cuban planters $36 per ton, or, tn one year. 32,400,000, which nt present goes. Into tho 'treasury of the United States. This bonus would Increaso year by year as tho Cuban production expanded and our home production declined, and would bo a heavy price to pay to foreigners in order to ac compllsh out own undoing. Sugar Beet Farming. "This sugar beet growing is today the most promising crop thnt la offered to our farmers. This fact is recognized by the continental nations of Europe, who foster and orotect It by all sorts of bounties, di rect and Indirect, realizingl,that'U,,is the cornerstone ot ineir agTicuuurui prosperity. tectlvo system benefiting' everyone except the farmer, and 'it seems a pity that tbo ono Industry which our protective system gives him to compensato for his sacrifices tn its behalf in other directions should 'now bo threatened with extinction. "I am very much surprised that we havo beard nothing whatever from the .labor lng mon's organizations on this subject. When 1 lived In Cuba, In the seventies. Chinese laborers came into tho harbor of Havana in steamer loads. I mean that actually steamers were chartorcd and leaded entirely with Chinese contract la borers, hired to work for olght years for 14 per month. Those Chlneso, on .landing, would bo put up at auction Just tho same as negroes and bought by the planters tor tho term ot their contract. In those days negroes wero worth In Cuba, about $1,000 aptcco for nblo bodied men, while tho Chlneso would sell for about $300 to $400 nplnco, as their term ot contract was only eight years. "I do not know to what extent Chinese may bo going to Cuba now, but it stands to reason that it tho American market Is thrown open to them at a reduction ot duties, the expansion of tbolr sugar Indus try will again necessitate the Importation of coolie labor. Sugar making In tropical countries has novcr succeeded except through servile labor In somo form .or another. We see an example ot thla to day In the Hawaiian Islands, whose plant ers are clamoring for special labor laws to enable thera to Import Chinese and Japan ese for their plantations, claiming that otherwise their Industry cannot be made prosperous. This is a feature ot the problem that should recetvo serious atton tlon while yet tho matter is only under discission and before) we commit . our selves to the policy ot shutting out Aslatlo labor, but lettlns In its products."

Robinson was tho next speaker Introduced, his subject being "Tho Jobbing Interests of Omaha." Mr. Robinson elicited hearty applause at Intervals ot his remarks, which wcro in part ns follows: "I find I am expected to glvo somo light on a subject which I believe to bo ot tho greatest Importance to Omaha. My connection with these interests dates back about four years. Wo tho Bryno-Hammor company, could havo started our business almost nnywhoro, Kansas City, St. Joseph, or nnywhero olso but Omaha, and wo mado a careful study of the situation. I myself traveled 3,600 miles In 1899 scanning tho obuntry for a location. After duo consider- ntjtm nnd Investigation 'wo determined that umana nau an tne icaiures ior me success ful establishment of a Jobbing plant. "Mr. Utt's statements aro modest. Thero aro now 2,200 men traveling out ot and for Omaha Jobbing houses. Wo havo tn this city today 30,000 peoplo that nro. supported nltogothor by pure Jobbing Interests. There wero twlco as many country merchants who camo to Omaha in 1901,' as In 1900. That Is a good increaso. Railroad Interests are showing n similar vast 'betterment each year, tho progress being steady, though enormous. 'Because of all these things, I do not be llevo it is possible to curb tho Jobbing In' terests from growing In Omaha. I bollevo that every man hero ought to take It upon himself to spread theso remarkable' facts I tell you, gontlomon, that It 1b not known, I found this out In my extensive scouring of this country in 1899. IIunIiicsh nnd Politic. J. II. Van Dusen of South Omaha closed the sot program with a speech ,on "Tho Business Man and Politics." He said In part: "You cannot separate business from poll- tics, and you ought not to seek to do so. You complain of your city government, yot thero nro many business men who, when nBked to participate In governmental mat tors, decline absolutely, If there Is that which' poods correction in your city, lot this Commercial club head the relief corps This club Is composed of men who provide livelihoods for 10,000 voters In Omaha Speak, gentlemen, and you can secure the relief you doslre." Mr, Pickens then called upon Judgo I. F. Baxtor for a spoech. Among other things the Judge said: "Far bo It from mo over to refuse to speak tor Omaha or the progress of Omaha Its advancement Is mine, and therefore Its Interests aro also. I havo been Interested in tho sentiments expressed hero tonight Tho proposition to Irrigate is a worthy one This Is .not a mere method ot building up a country.

Mr. Carneglo predicted that in the near future railroad trains will run 100 miles an hour, apd on this point ho said: "In the improvements made today on the lines I do not think many managers are looking far enough ahead. Thoy aro spend ing on some parts, perhaps halt a million dollars, whero they ought to spend double and easing tho curves which they should abolish, and some futuro president is to say they wasted a good deal of money.
