J Lowry. Pjv^ident of

may be made which will be wel

South Manufacturing Section.
Take into consideration. for
instance, the altered business
conditions in the Southern States,
which, as every one- knows, have
undergone many radical indus
trial changes-in’-fhfc pasf decade
or so; as also the Western States,
many of which bay'd undergone
material commercial change*?
Take the concrete case, for in
stance, of the State of Lou
isiana. The Advent of tho Mex
ican boll weevil into that State
completely paralyzed the cotton
laising there, and It necessarily
had to fall back on. othev tiops.
principally sugar cane. In view
of that change, to put sugar on
the free list now would serious
ly hamper the growth' <>f that in
dustry. and virtually reduce it be
low* the mark where -the cultiva
tion of sugar canp would longer
be profitable.
Free Sugar Detrimental.
’The samo thing Would apply
directly to the sugar industry
in the Western States. If the
tariff reform advocates should
put sugar on the free list they
would benefit, the consumer but
a trifle comparatively, and would,
on the other hand, put thousands
of people andjhTindreds of plants
and plantations out of business.
What individual cares for the
few cents additional a pound
that he pa^s for hi? sugar? We
pay it, and we don't know’ tin*
differencer less.do we care; but
we should vdre find give out-
se’vc* graye concern about tin-
possible destruction of the sugar
industry if we, clamor for and
get a few «cents u pound reduc
tion on this commodity by its be
ing put on the free list.
Entitle^ to Protection.

South as n Whole? She has be
come a manufacturing section,
and as such sh$ , ,is ijovy entitled
to the same protection that New
England as a mpnufacturing ac

Factories orall kinds are all over
our Southern yoiy^irv. and new
ones are being ertjoted cohtijiuh

protected. The South, which as

t he New England ’ section for a
century, is now mowing into its
ow’n as a produced And manufac
turer. and she" is certainly en
titled to the same adequate pro
tection which New England hits
heretofore enjoyed,
.lust at the’’time when Urn
South can make Mler industries
