THE SPEECH or MR.. BURROWS

To the future inquirer into the history OF this
time 1t will ever seem incomprehensible that Il
Democratic majority In Congress could be In
duced to favor the Wilson bill, In the face OF
objections and arguments such rs Representa-
tive Burrows set forth In his speech yesterday.
Debate must have ceased to possess any mean
ing or force, the historian will conclude, II a
measure shown 10 be so hostile to public In
tercsts, contrary TO the principles OF the
party in power, so full Of debaslng sectiOnalism
and disgraceful inconsistency, could yet com
mand majority Of votes
Mr. Burrows first shows that the bill intends,
not mere adjustment or revision Of rates. but
n complete reversal Of National policy. This re-
versal is proposed In spite Of the fact that the
protective act has accomplished the results
promised, and even more than It's friends
hoped and grander results for the country than
any other tariff has ever attained: that II has
stimulated and greatly developed Industries, and
at the same time has secured ample revenue,
so that II the act OF 1900 had been left undis-
turbed there would be no deficiency In the
Treasury to-day. The great decline In the rev.
enue Of late he shows, has been caused by the
prostration Of Industries which the expectation
Of a radical change would certainly have pro-
duced. The facts which are arrayed to show
how greatly that act has benefited the country

the tremendous windstOrms Of the lake regions

of the structures and the clearance OF the
grounds will be a costly undertaking; but the
work cannot be deferred many months. The
Worlds Fair has exerted already an educational
influence which has broadened and invigorated
the art Of American architects and refined and
deepcned the artistic instincts Of the people,
The magnificent structures may pass away, or
fall into premature ruin like the lovely Peristyle,

permanently different from what they would

will NOT no met nor can their meaning be dis
puted. Mr.. Burrows rightly reasons, too, that
the frightful depression of Industries when
has resulted already from the mere apprehen-
sion of n radical change Of policy proves now
dangerous such n change would be to the IN
dustries and business Of the Nation
Much space is given by Mr.. Burrows to the
proof that the trainers Of the Constitution, VINO
themselves enacted the first protective tnrin'
did not believe such IN net UNCONSTITUTIONAL
But the declared principles OF the party III
power are Mt war with the bill II proposes be-
cause, while destroying protection IN multi
tude Of cases. it nevertheless retains many
duties distinctly intended to be protective,
which are therefore unconstitutional II the
Democratic principle Is sound. Neither Is the
new tariff reform, so-called, In any sense tnrln
for revenue AS Mr.. Burrows shows. 1t would
Weld S75,OOO,OO0 less than the present act from
imports equal to those Of the fiscal year 1913,
and 1t deliberately throws away this large
revenue at time when the Treasury must
have It and can get 1t only by direct tax
The addition of 131 articles to the free list,
besides great number Of farm products
would increase free importations by $45,S64, 142
on the basis Of last year, and throw away-a
free donation to foreigners $12 729021 Of rev.
enue. With reason an English statesman char
acterized the bill as free trade gone mad
most effective part OF Mr. Burrowss speech
Is his exposure Of the shameless Inconsistencies
and sectiOnalism Of the pending bill. SO many
are cited that the force Of this part Of his
speech can only be appreciated upon Its perrsal
The clay Of New-Jerscy the bill makes Free
but protects by a duty Of 81 per ton the clay
of Georgia. Hoop iron on farmers bucket Is
taxed but on a planters cotton bale Is free.
Washed wool is a raw material and made free,
but washed clay Of the South Is finished
product, and made dutiable. The wheat of the
Northern farmer, who pays 81 per day for
labor, is protected by only a 20 per cent duty,
while the rice Of the Southern planter, who
pays only 70 cents per day for labor, is pro-
tected by duty of II per cent.
With absurdities and glaring sectional favor
itisms too numerous to mention, the measure
has nevertheless one great purpose-to destroy
the protection under which the industries OF
the Nation have been grandly developed. MIR.
Burrows shows how many industries would
be destroyed and many others crippled, by
such tariff, and 1t seems hard to believe that,
in the face Of such an exposure, Representa-
tiyes of intelligent and laborfng constituencies
can vote for q bill so destructive to their In
tcrests and so nimical to the prosperity OF the
whole country.

THE ELECTRIC FRANCHISES.

They VIII Come up Before the Council
This Morning.
The city council will again tackle the
question OF electric railway franchises
for the southeastern nection of the city
at their meeting today, and it is ex-
pected that some definite action will be
taken.
At the meeting Of the board of public
works on Friday, Messrs. Hazard and
Storrs made no movement but they
will probably be on hand today. The
Storrs franchise was very badly mutt
lated by the time that the board of pub
lie works got through with it. The
franchise ON Hill street and Alvarado
street was stricken out of the proposed
grant at the solicitation of the property
owners on those thoroughtares, and to
cap the climax, all OF the franchise
covering the streets east OF Main street
to the Santa Fe depot was knocked out.
AS matters now stand but little else re-
mains to act on save the franchise asked
for by the Main street and Agricultural
Park railway in the southwest section of
the municipality, and the councilmen
hold that if the Storra people, who
have not yet disclosed their identity,
want road in that district, that they
can enter into the struggle with the
Main street railway people and bid for
the franchise.

STAMPS TEN A SECOND.
AUTOMATIC CANCELLATION MA
CHIMES IN THE P0ST0FFICE.
San Francisco Purchases the Latest Inn
provement in Postal Appliances-A
Successful Test Made-Los An
eeles to Have Them.

Two new stamping machines
have recently been set up in the gen
eral postofice. remarks the San Fran
cieco Examiner, and are now working
we'll, although the expert mechanic
who was sent out with them is not
through tinkering with them yet. They
are models OF American inventive in
Renuity and are greatly admired by all
the employees OF the postotfice.
The machine is now 10 operation in
nearly every large city in the United
States. Portland got ahead of San
Francisco by about two weeks, and
Los Angeles will not be very far behind.
In the Chicago postoftice 10 machines
are used.
The machine will cancel stamps and
postmsrk 10000 letters an hour and
save the work of about fvs men. Only
one man is required to feed it, and all
he does is to throw the letters in. In
large cities there is class of business
men who often eend several thousand
letters to mail at once. They are
stamped to leave by the 8 80 mail. for
example, but on account of their num-
Der the stamping is not finished in
time to permit distribution before the
train leaves, and many of the letters are
thus unavoidsbly delayed. By the use
of the machine the stamping is done
in few minutes and the full force of
men may be put upon the work of dis
tributing.
The machine is entirely automatic. A
large table receives the letters W hich are
to be Cancelled and postmarked. They
lie upon the table in a confused heap.
aud the operator takes bunch of about
20, shuffies them together and holds the
package with the stamps in the lower
left-hand corner. Then he inserts the
end of the bunch into the receiving
wheels, and in second they are drawn
in one at time. but so quickly that the
eye cannot follow them, and dumped
into a trough from which they are re-
moved for distribution. The rollers that
snatch the letters are of metal. faced
with rubber. On one side is a revers-
ing and separating roller, which shoots
through only one letter at time. In
the path of the letter ia a trip that re-
leases frictional clutch which governs
the die.
One OF the advantages of the machine
is the legibility of the postmark. The
ink feeds through holes from small
metal cup, and will last all day without
renewal. On the top is q register, which
will count a million.
