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 in buga‘l'grusL c}:;c}eg 3 = N§ e {y ‘ While We Live. .
