SENATOR spooNER ON THE RESULT.
DUE TO THE ALARM OF BUSINESS MEN ~1'D
FEARS OF A SOLID SOUTH.

Chicago. Nov 10 (speclaD. senator Spooner' OF
Wisconsin. who was here to-day his way to wash
lngton was asked by a reporter to what he attriou'eo
the result of the elections. Mr. Spooner answered.
principally to the fact that the business Interests
were alarmed and to a fear OF the Solid South Our
people in the North justly afraid of measure
drawn up and controlled by the represent atvcs Of the
Southern section Of the country. 1t not Ques-
lion whether there should be revenue reforms and
tariff revision but question whether the South should
be allowed make the changes at the expense Of the
Northern Industries exclusively. That danger will
now be removed for about the first work under Cen
era Harrisons Administration will be the admission
OF Washington and Montana Territories States, and
the division and admission Of Dakota Sates.'
"What will be the policy regarding tariff reform'7
We will undoubtedly pass measure of which the
Senate Tariff bill IS fair nucleus The idea Is to
duce the revenue about $4,000 OOO II is a question
whether the reduction of duties will reduce the
cnue 1t certainly Is not to be the policy to stimulate
imports to the disadvantage Of American industries.
and, on the other hand, there will certainly be
bonuses given TO American manufacturers

MISS DICKINSON WIS TREATED FAIRLY
THE COMMITTEE WAS GENEROUS TO HER AND
WILL PAY NO MORE UNLESS COMPELLED.

There IS telling Of course. what will be the
outcome of Anna Dckinson's suit against tho Repub
lcan National Committee for $3.50, which she
stoutly AYERS IS due her Tho members Of the com
mtee are equally strong In their denial that she
is entitled to one cent more than has already been
paid to her for her speaking and occurring during
the campaign. The members Of the committee are
thoroughly satisfied with her work. and has
said limited that her speaking was not salts
factory She was simply engaged By the committee
to make speeches at 1928 a speech, and during the
entire campaign she made only fifteen. When she
came TO settle up with the committee she was paid
for thirty speeches at that rate.
The reason for this libcrality the part Of tho
committee the fact that she had not been kept
a. busy she expected she would be when thu
contract with the committee was made. and IL
thought that she would feel disappointed because she
had not been kept at work as much as she might
have been. Valuable as Miss Dcknson's speaking
wass said a member Of the National Committee yes
teriay, "we could not get the dates for her tina,
other speakers of equal importance, prominence and
ability received. There seemed TO be considerable
hestancy the part of the various state committees
TO have woman speak 1t was due, In great
part. to desire not to bring woman In contact
with the rush, the noise, the excitement and tho
cheering Of political meetings. Her speeches. how
ever, were entirely satisfactory, and think they
did good wherever she had opportunity 90 Be
heard"
From another source IL was learned tnat many
attempts were made by the Republican state Com
mittee to get dates for Miss Dickinson in this state,
but the county chairmen would not take her Tho
issue of the campaign they held was the tariff,
and they did think that woman could handle
that subject thoroughly and with as good effect as
a man. At any rate her speeches were not called
for. and the contract under which she was employed
was similar to that of the other speakers and was
carried out generously. Miss Dickinson Is staying
az the Everett House, and her is In the hands
of Howe & HummcL She refuses 10 be interviewed
on the subject Of her suit but her lawyers say that
the amount which they suing for promised
10 her If General Harrison was elected
The committee will not pay the amount that sho
demands, however unless compelled by the courts.
That is Just the way the matter stands Many
are OF the opinion that there has been misundef-
standing and Miss Dickinson f. la5Oring under n.
There have been complaints from any others Of
the hundreds VI speakers who have been employed,
I and there has been attempt ON the part Of tho
committee to treat any In its employ dishonest
ly Miss Dickinson is positive, however, that tho
money Is due her, and nothing but Its payment viii
