Just boforo sailing foi Europe, John Arbucklo, tho sugar re llnor and coffee manufacturer, issued a statement strongly attacking the tariff on raw sugar, declaring It to ba a "wicked tax" for tho bonoflt of beet sugar Interests. Mr. Arbucklo said: "I have not been well, and am go ing abroad to roHt and rocuporato In preparation for tho fight to bo mado in congress at Its noxt session for free sugar. I propose to dovoto all my tlmo and ability to tho abolition of nl import duties on raw Bugar, a most wicked tax on a food necessity of all our people. It taxes tho man who works for a a wage of a dollar a day as much as It taxes an Astor, Mr. Mor gan or Mr. Rockefeller. "Just look at theso figures showing how tho prlccB of refined sugar to tho consumer Is mado up. I dlsrogard tho abnormal price lately prevailing for the raw product and tako a normal price. "Prices paid by Now York rofln erics for raw Bugar, 2.40 cents; duty per pound, 1.G85 cents. "With tho raw sugar costing tho roflnor 4.08G cents per pound, his prlco to wholesale grocers for granu lated sugar Is about 4.90 per pound, nnd tho wholesalo grocers' not price to the Now York retail grocers per pound Is about 4.9G cents, and tho ro tall grocers' prlco to consumers was between B.15 nnd 5.25 cents por pound. So that If for ovory pound of sugar going Into a household In Now York city at 5.25 cents por pound tho gov. ernment of tho United States has ox. acted 1.G85 cents, or almost onothlrd of tho total prlco. It means that every household that now buys throe and ono-half pounds of sugar could, with tho Bamo monoy. buy flvo and one quarter pounds If this tax were ro moved." Thief Returns Plunder. Chicago.
