At tho time of tlio organization of tho
American Hoot Sugar company to which
tho Norfolk factory belongs it was usso
dated by many with tho American Su
trar Refining company of which II O
Havomoyor tho trust magimt1 is tho
honil Tho former howovor is cxclu
Hivolyii manufacturing concern whilo
tho latter attends almost wholly to tho
Importing business tho two interests
thoroforo bolng rivals in tho market
Tho testimony given by Mr Havomoyor
boforo tho industrial commission in
which ho Books to direct attoution from
tho trust to tho protective tariff by
charging tho tariff with lwing rospon
nlblo for all trusts has callod forth from
Honry T Oxutird prosidont of tho boot
nugor company tho following convin
cing article in roply In it ho charges
Havomoyor with gross mlsstatomouts
rind with Hooking to destroy tho boot su
gar industry which is proving sucli a
clangorous competitor of tho trust Tho
following is Mr OxuardH artiolo
In juBtioo to tho homo sugar pro
ducers and as president of tho Ameri
can Boot Sugar Producers Association
I wish to call attoution to a fow of tho
inacouracios in H O HavomoyerH ro
cent mid woudorfully fallacious argu
ment boforo tho industrial commission
nt Washington Mr Havomoyor makos
claims whloh ho cannot in any way
Hubtantiuto A fair sample of his Illogi
cal argument is found in tho first lino
which forms tho basis of Ids whole argu
ment viz Tho customs tariff is tho
mother of all trusts
Mr Havomoyor says that tho tariff
is responsible for all largo trusts booauso
thoy are inordinately protected except
tho sugar trust Tho two largost in
facttho plonoor trust in this country
is ovory one knows aro tho Standard
Oil and Sugar trusts Tho Standard Oil
company uoos not enjoy its monopoly
from tho tariff and tho American Sugar
Refining company according to Mr
JIavemeyer receives only Ili per cent
protection How absurd thou this is
to wiy that tho tariff is rospouslblo for
trusts But right bore I wish to dlsputo
Mr Havomoyors statomont regarding
tho protection afforded to sugar refining
claiming that it only recolvos a protec
tion of i per cent In tho Dingloy
tariff act sugar rolluiug rocolvos a pro
tection of an olghth of a cont por pound
nud tho testimony produced boforo tho
ways and moans committee of which
Mr Dingloy was chairman brought
ont tho fact that sugar in a modern re
finery with Iwst machinery well loca
ted cau bo refined tit a oast of about a
quarter of a cont por pound Wo there
fore find that sugar rolluiug under those
conditions is receiving a protootiou of
not M but fit per oont ad valorem
based ou tho cost of refining sugar
Tho error in Mr Havomoyors argu
ment is that he arrivos at tho protootiou
to sugar rofiuod based on tho valuo of
roflnod sugar Iu othor words basing
tho valuo at 1 couts per pound and
receiving a protection of only 13Jj
cents Mr Havomoyor would bo right iu
ayiug that ho receiver ouly a protection
of approximately 4 por cont but Mr
Havomoyor does uot produce the sugar
and his only interest is in tho cost of
making raw sugar white or iu othor
words refining raw browu sugar and
bis protootiou must be based on what the
cost is of refining instod of tho valuo of
the sugar whloh brings his protection
from 4 por cent up to 40 or 60 per cont
Tho protootiou granted tho sugar pro
ducers wuo uiuKo tuo article or of sugar
itself is 40 per cent ou tho cost of raw
sugars to day or idoutical with tho pro
toctiou granted tho sugar refiuiug com
ponies
Should Mr Havomoyors selfish sug
gestious be adopted it would wipe out
entirely tho American home sugar iu

JfhodS SaMafHVill
llo il Illlicurellver il the 11011 Irritating ui
dtistry and allow Mr Havomoyor
to
contlnno refining foreign raw sugars
Wo must look to tho reason which
led Mr Havomoyor to niako this won
derful and fallacious attaok on homo
sugar production In tho first placebo
knows porfoctly well ami can read tho
handwriting on tho wall which says
that tho production of sugar from sugar
lieots carried out on tho lines on which
tho industry is Iwing devolopod in tho
Unltod Statos will finally rosult in pro
ducing tho sugar consumed by tho people
of tho Unltod States In a thousand boot
Riigar factorlos dottod all ovor tho union
and rondor nsoless tho roflneries on tho
const Thoso factorlos will employ a
hundred men where ono is employed to
day by tho sugar trust and give tho
farmers tho bonoflt of a protcctlvo tariff
ou a new and profitablo crop which is a
doslrablo end to bo obtained for tho
ugrcultural clussos who aro not usually
benefitted by nny tariff protection
Mr Havomoyor as prosidont of tho
American Sugar Refining company is
perfectly right to do everything iu his
powor to protoct tho industry ho ropro
flouts and his suggestion that raw su
garswhich aro his raw uuitorial
should bo lot iu duty froo 1b undoubted
ly ou tho lines most favorable to tho su
gar trust
Ho suggests that sugar bo admitted
duty froo from Oulm knowing full woll
that this would at tho prosout time pre
vont tho development of tho homo boot
sugar iuduBtry which Is a now Industry
iu this country only having had a prac
tical existence sluco tho MoKiuloy act
but a most promising ono and ono whloh
will If fostorod during tho uoxt ton or
fiftooti yoars supply tho Unltod States
with thoir own sugar iustoad of sending
abroad ovor one liuudrod million dollars
for this agricultural articlo of dally uso
Auothor reason for Mr Havomoyors
attaok on tho tariff iu gouoral and tho
homo sugar Industry iu particular may
10 aocountod for by his dosiro to direct
tho attoution away from trusts and have
it contorod ou tho tariff Tho oxpori
oncos of doprossiou following tho Wilson
act contrasted with tho prospority
which succoodod tho MoKiuloy law will
hardly fool tho majority of tho Amer
ican pooplo Mr Havomoyor and
othors havo selfish intorosts to protect
notwithstanding Mr Havomoyor
wants raw sugar froo and favors Oubau
planters against American farmers
This might be an udditiouul reason for
his suggestion that Oubau sugar should
be admitted froo but tho main nud iu
my opinion underlying reason for his
statement rosts ou the fact that ho sees
tho final destruction of tho sugar rofiu
lug Industry throatouod by the coming
prospority of tho homo beet sugar indus
try which is beginning to assuino most
important proportions and whiuh oxists
today in California Oregon Washing
ton Utah Now Mexico Colorado No
braslcu Minuosota Wisconsin Illinois
Mlchigau and Now York having de
veloped phenomenally iu tho last two
years
There is no trust among tho sugar
producers of this country aud thoro
never can be for the simple reason that
tho boot sugar industry can be started iu
almost any part of tho uuion
I concludo by calling attention to the
faot that tho homo sugar industry which
Mr Havomoyor claims to bo inordinate
ly proteoted is uot iu a trust whereas
tho sugar refiuiug industry which ho
claims does not recoivo oue half of the
protection it requires Is with tho Stand
ard Oil Company the plonoer of this uew
buslnoss consolidation kuowu as trust
I will not disputo Mr Havemoyors
claim that 10 per ceut is sufficient pro
tection to tho sugar refining intorosts
which he represents but I do assert
that he canuot make the American peo
ple believe that the industries of this
country aud business prospered during
the years we were struggling under the
Wllsou law whou tho average
tlou amounted to 40 per cent ad valorem
If Mr Havomoyor had said that keon
and losing competition iu busiuess led
to the formation of trusts he would bo
right for tho tariff has nothing to do
with tho formation of truBts
