Democratic Sentinel, Volume 13, Number 28, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 August 1889 — The Poor Man’s Sugar Bowl. [ARTICLE]

The Poor Man’s Sugar Bowl.

The history of monopoly never recorded a more brazen and atrocious robbery of the people than that now being engineered by the sugar trust speculators. The jeweled hand that clutches the poor man’s sugar bowl is insatiate in its gree'd. The price of this necessity of the people has already been raised 40 per cent, by the trust managers and the height of their avarice is far from reached. The apparent apathy of the public serves as encouragement to the schemers. Is there no limit to the patience of the people?— New York World.
