The Tariff bill has been revised again
by somebody or some committee of the
United States Senate, with intent, as we
understand, to make this much abused
measure acceptable to those kicking
Democrats who have their little private
axes to grind. This second revision is
given in the morning papers, but nobody
cares to wade through it in detail, pre-
fering to accept in lieu thereof the gem
eral summGry-that the changes therein
are in the main Of protective nature.
There are said to be about 400 of these
so-called Amendments" which would
indicate that the lobbyists have been
deplorably successful in getting their
work in. The Wilson bill, as it came
from the House, was clean.cut mea-
sure and creditable attempt to faith
fully carry out the platform pledges of
the party, and, as such, acceptable to
the majority of the American people.
Since then it has undergone at least two
''revisions" in the Senate, and the result
appears to be veritable legislative
crazy-quilt in which 1t is difficult to say
whether McKinleyism or something else
predominates, and which is acceptable
to nobody, except in the way that
a dish of potato Feelings may be
acceptable to the hungry man who can
not get the potatoes themselves. Besides,
there is nothing in the record of this
impotent and long winded Senate to
warrant the assumption that this re-
vision is to be final or that the next
three weeks may not bring forth still
another revision to placate some minor
lobbyists who may possibly have not
yet gotten all they wanted. Even now
VIC are told the Louisiana Senators arc
going to kick for bounty on sugar and
that the Ohio shepherds have not alto
gether abandoned their efforts to inject
some tax on wool into the bill. The best
that can be said is that the bill, even as
it has been butchered up, is still feeble
step in the right direction, and, SO fai
as it goes, better than no step forward
at all. Therefore, since German and
Brice and Murphy and their little band
of conservative" bushwhacliers--H Hill
possibly excepted-are reported ap.
peased with their special little grabs I'M
corporated in this latest revision. let the
Senate get down to work and pass what
is left of the bill without any further
palayer.
