Some Campaign Ammuni
et
'+ Is Secretary Cortelyou publishing statis
tics of our trade with Cuba to show..what
a good thing the Cuban reciprocity treaty
is for this connty—the. treaty: for ratifi
cation of which the President called Con
gress in extra session? According to
these statistics 'oti¥ imports from Cuba—‘
principally sugar<-have increased 'about |
95 pel cent,, while ‘our ' exports ‘to- that
country have increased only about 25 per.
cent. With that kind of inareace in ot
trade it would take us a long time to get
rich, =~ : =
The treaty 1§: a good thing for Cuba and
for-the sugar trust, but how about its ‘ef
fectupon our 'sugar industry, both beet
and cane? And how much revenue 'is it
keeping out of the treasury? ' These are
questions which will be asked when the
presidential campaign begins and the
spellbinders tommeéhce énlightening the
people; = The defenders of the Piesident
will be kept busy explaining why he was
so anxious to do'the sugar trust sueh a
good turn. 33 Vil O e& D
‘Some of the' Republican papers, par
ticularly Roosevelt papers, have found
much satisfaction recently in saying that
sugar trust influences were behind the
candidacy of Judge Parker; because Mr.
Cord Myeér, who has 's(imé remote interest
in’tlat trust, has been_chosen chairman
of the Democratic Executive Committee
of New Vork, but would it not seem as if
Mr Roosevelt has a much deeper interest
in that trust than it is possible for Judge
i'‘arker to have? :
~ The theory on which; the ‘reciprocity
treaty was based was that Quba woiuld 'do
her trading in this. country: if we: made
some _concessions .to her sugar, but- it
looks as if she were taking our gold" for
her sugar and spending it for'’her supplies
in Eugland, iSpain and other European
ceuntries.. Now that Mr, Cortelou has
given us some figures'relative to Cuba’s
‘commerce with'this country, will he not
be obliging enough to let us know to
what extenECiba‘s "ifiports from other
countries have increased since our trade
‘treaty with her' Has''eénabled her to get a
better Price for her gugar? We, Qg‘gl_}g; to
haye all the fagtg,gtg as tQ ,bgabiqgf%;fimnt
out-t 6 the peoplégustwhat the Ctiban re
ciprocity treaty on which Mr. Roosevelt
insisted so strenuously, has been. When
all the facts are known we feel certain
that the treaty will lot contribute much
to Mr. Roosevelt's. popularity, either ifi
the sugar beet or the sugar cane growing
sections of the country. Indeed, when
‘the-less of reyenfie is taken into- dtcount
‘it sti)ulgtfiihff it will “eontribute "t hig
popularity anywhere, exceptin Cuba amf
