L here assert it is in the very na
Uf things that Secretary Gage, as
Lead of the great revenue depart
[ of the Government, should con
illy come in for assaults for the
tion of laws that do not meet

Executes it.
[the other hand, however, it is re
kl as singular that Secretary
should suffer so often and se
k from attacks not for the exe
[ of the laws but for the manner
jch ho executes them. Thus in
atter of the New York custom
scandal, the Secretary, it is
[was not criticised for renting
ikling, but for paying an exorbi
ental therefor. In his deposit
lie funds in the banks of the

ng no interest, but. for selecting
that stood close to certain
ent members of the Republi
ty—banks which were after
assessed for the benefit of the
ilican campaign fund,
larly, in the case of the Rus
igar bounty, he is not criticised
terposing the countervailing

his home right to one in the interior,
and exports his stock, the difference
being made up by exchange between
the two official certificates of export.
The manufacturer who ceded his
right receives from the manufacturer
who acquired the right, the price per
pound agreed upon between them,
which is usually determined by the
difference existing at the moment be
tween tli price obtainable for the
sugar on the home market and the
price obtainable by sale abroad. This j
is what is termed a transfer. The
price of these transfers varies accord
in to tlie fluctuations in the price of
sugar in Russia and abroad. There
fore (he person who sells the trans
fer (the right of issue into the home
market) charges several kopecks
more than the difference mentioned
above. This is done on account of
the risk that is taken that suar prices
abroad may fall, and also for the
trouble and expense involved in ex
porting and transporting.
This explains why Russian export
certificates are subject to barter and
sale, and is evidently not due to any
Government bounty. The whole ar
rangement is like a trust of a com
bination of producers to put up prices
at home, and selling for exports at
reduced prices. It is a wide stretch
to call this a Government bounty, but
if we are to so construe it the United
States is the larest bounty giver in
tin' world.
