TARIFF BILL IS TT gOHROUGF
WITH BUT LITTLE TMIfli
Washington, Ma/ 1 ? After an ex
cited debate over tho tnr-iff bill
yesterday, that document enmo out
of the contest without modification,
and It Is now believed It will paBs
with but little alteration.
Hero Is the explanation of tho now
tariff bill as prepared by Chairman
Uudorwood of tho houso waya and
means committee, which framed tho
measur":
Th?> enactment of a tariff rovi
slon measures In 1309 was unavold
;blo politically oven from the view
point o high protectionists. The
country demauded of tho then dom
inant political party a modification
of tho extremo tariff policy with
which tho country was afflicted, but
the expectation of redress through
the act of 1909 was blasted, for
that measure not only failed to give
the desired relief, but made many
conditions even worso. Tho rates
of duty on some commodities were
even advanced, duo largely to re
classifications by which tho real
duties were concealed. It Is only
natura', therefore, that tho docop
tlon Imposed on tho peoplo through
tho falluro of tho law of 1909 to
give nooded rellof has bocomo more
and more irritating to the peoplo
as tho years have passed by. This
was evidenced by tho political re
sults of the olectlou of 1910, by
which the Democratic party socur
ed control of tho houso of repre
sentatives. Following this a series
of tariff bills woro passed at the
first session of tho Sixty-socond
?ingress during tho summer of 1911
which were passed by congress and
presented to President Taft, only
to be vetoed by him.
Impatient to obey tho niandntes
of the people, congress during tho
winter and sprang of 1912 repassed
ihese with other tarltt' revision
measures, but tho fato was the same
:is at tho former session. In that
thoy mot tho prompt veto of th>'
election of 1912, which gavo the
Democratic party a swooping vic
tory. at the polls and turned over to
them the machinery necessary to
effect tariff legislation and placed
upon them tho responsibility of re
vising the tariff downward In ac
cordance with the urgent and re
peated demands of tho public. Tho
committee has given very careful
consideration during tho lost two
years to tho economic conditions
throughout this and other countries,
hnf studied overy phase of the tar
iff as related to our economic con
ditions.' and . tho bill which it now
presents to the house is Its Inter
pretation of the responsibilities
placed upon It by the peoplo In the
matter ol levlslng tho present tar
tf duties and also Its vlows of u
tariff revised to a basis of legitim
ate competition, such as will af
ford u wholesome Influence on our
commerce, bring roliof to tho peop
le in tho mutter of tho high cost of
living and at ? tho same timo work
:io detriment to properly conducted
manufacturing industries.
Tho dividing lino botwoon tho pos
itions o* tho two great partlos on
this question is very clear and eas
ily ascertained in theory. Where
tho tariff rates bulanco tho differ
ence in cost of productlou at home
.111 abroad. Including an allowance
for the difforonco in frolght rates,
the tariff must be competitive, and
from that point downward to tho
lowest tariff that can be Icvlod will
continue to bo competitive to a
greater or less extent. Where com
petition is not Interfered with by
'evying the tax above the highest
competitive point the profits of the
munufucturor are not protected. On
the other han ?, when the duties lev
ied at the custom house aro high
enough to allow the American man
ufacturer to make a profit before
his competitor can enter tho field,
wo have Invaded the domain of
the protection of profits. In tho
committee's judgment the protec
tion of any profit must of nocessity
have a tendency to destroy compe
tition and create monopoly, whoth
er tho profit protected Is ronson
i'blo or unreasonable.
Which courso is the wiser one
for our government to take? Tho
oiio that demands tho protection of
profits, the continued policy of hot
house growth for our Industrie, tho
stagnation of dovelopmont ceases, or
lows whero competition ceases, or,
on tho other hand, the gradual re
duction of our tariff to a basis
whero tho American manufacturer
u.ust meet honest competition;
whoro ho must dovolop his busi
ness along tho best and most oco
.lomlc lines; where, when ho fights
at homo to control his market, he
is 'orgnlng tho way in tho economic
development of his business to cx
ttnd his trade In the markets of
the world. The future growth of
our great industries lies boyond the
In Its tariff revision work the
e mmltteo has kept in mind the dls
'Inctlon between tho necessities and
the luxuries of life, reducing the
tariff burdens on tho necessities to
the lowest possible points commen
surate with revenue rrtiulronients
and making the luxuries of life boar
?.heir proper portion of the tariff
responsibilities.
(By the Idler)
"Please cut It a llttlo longor,"
said tho Id'.or to the barber the last
time be sat In tho tonsorlal artist's
chair. This was a direct admission
on my part that age, by causing a
perceptiblo thinness on tho top of
my head, wna chronlchlng tho years
and this caused mo to heavo a hoav
v sigh, and to think of tho years
Passed In tho "North."
For a time I was almost sad at
the thought that life was fleeting but
as I Idled along Broadway, 1 looked
into Klrmse's window, and saw Lou
is Gutfeld waiting on u customer,
and my mind turnod to tho thought
that ho was no longer a boy, and
had grown into man's estate.
This was a themo for thought.
Has Alaska not been maligned by
tho statement that its inhabitants
wero not permanent, and that all
those living north of "fifty-four twen
ty" wero merely waiting for an op
portunity to get nway. I then turn
ed my faco towards tho lower end of
Broadway, and as I strolled along I
saw Vincent Dortoro, ono of Skag
way's boys, ono of the graduates
from Skagway's High School, having
livid here almost all his life. He
is in business tor himself, and has
established himself In a stable and
substantial manner In tho mer^han
d'sc business, and I thought that in
this examplo there was llttlo that
listened l!ke*a roving, restless dls
poslt'on.
At Claygon's store, Edward Ltd
(H- oat is now employed as salo3man,
and ho Is making good. He Is an
other Skagway boy who has known
no other playgrounds than tho Xorth
and adds his evidence to tho perma
nency of Alaska's population.
Edwin Friedenthal is learning to
bo a pharmacist, and has been as
sociated with tho Brltt drug store to
several months, and ho too. Is ono
of tho alumni of tho Skagway High
School.
Then I remembered the young girla
v. ho were known as Skagway girls
and I again realized that life's pag
es were turning on? by one, and not
ait slowly as ono would wish, for It
was evidenced when my stops reach
ed H. J. Lynch's store. There I
found .Miss Frlodouthal acting in the
capacity of head saleslady, and I re
alized that she was no longer a
"girl" In the common acceptance of
tho term, but In reality a young lady.
In tho telephono office. In the U.
S. Cable oftlce. In tho various stores,
?.vero evidences In tho persons of
young men nnd women who were
there employed, of tho stability and
perraanancy of Alaska's residents.
On tho wharf I found a number o(
tho brawn and slnow of Skagway's
young manhood, and I would there
fore cheerfully recommend that any
doubting Thomas could havo his
doubts quickly dispelled as to the
permanency of population by simp
ly noting tho percentago of young
people who havo entered tho busi
ness world of Skagway, and to In
vestigate the high per cent of those
who have known no othor schools
than tho Skagway public school.
Tho readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there Is at
least one droadful dlsoase that sclonc
has been able to euro In all Its stages
and that la Catarrh, Hall's Catarrh
Cure Is tho only positive cure now
known tc the medical fraternity. Ca
tarrh being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment
| Hall's Catarrh Cure la taken Intern
illy, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying tho foundation of
the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the consti
tution and assisting nature In doing
its work. The proprloton have so
much faith In Its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollar?
