passed prohibiting the canning of sardines dur

such law, if passed, would undoubtedly

sardlne interests as nearly one-haf of the fish
taken during those months are too small and

to the press house for pOmace, where if left to
grow, would III short time be large enough
for canning. Another reason why such Il law
should be passed. is, that it would break up the

The Tariff on Lumber.
SERIOUS BLOW AT NAMES MOST INTpORTA n


WASHINGTON, Jan. 90. The Senate directed
severe blow at the lumber industry of Maine
by voting to place certain classes of lumber on
the free list. 1.-The effect of it will certainly be-"
said Mr.. Frye, after the amendment was adopt
ed, "that many of our lumbermen will have to
close up They cannot stand up against such
competition as will be presented by the Canadi-

rebellion Of four Western Republican Senators
against the views of the majority of their party
colleagues. They were Van Wyck of Nebraska,
ingalls, and Plumb of Kansas and McDill of
Iowa.

Tariff Legislation.

A week or two ago the Washington CORES

Such a result would have been 4 disappoint-
ment to the country, and realizing this fact, Re
publican Congressman have taken steps to avert
it, They may fail TO accomplish their purpose.
but if they DO the responsibility will rest upon
others. A full caucus of the Republican mem
bers of the House has practically agreed to
support .nc Tariff Revision bill of the Commit
tee OF Ways and Means. and although this
measure is not on the whole 50 desirable as that
presented BY the Tariff Commission, it is pre-
ferabe in few points and is certainly vast
Improvement on the present tariff. For one
thing it makes a greater reduction in the duty
on sugar than the commission advocated. While
on the other hand it increase, many of their
rates. In this latter respect the Senate com
mittees bill would find more favor. and it is
possible that the best features of the Senate and
House bills may be embodied in the measure a>
it finally passes Congress. one estimate is that
the House bill will decrease the revenues de-
rived from the tariff about 50. 100000 MI
