CUBA AND A SUGAR TARIFF

PAID IT FOR YEARS AND PAMPERED
Strong Point Mnrtc In Favor ot Protec

' 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."

TiiIUh for the Jobbers.
Charles N. 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

Vnlue of Wealth.
Tho best of wealth In not what It ilnra fnr
tho owner, but what It enables him to do
for others. And let mo tell you thero Is
nothing In money beyond having n, com

being ablo to help others.
It Is one of tho most chccrlnir facta of
our days thnt under present conditions tho

ours Is nt this moment In regard to labor.
Every sober nnd capable ana willing man

What all of you should strlvo for In a
