Some of the Populist brethren in
this vicinity have heretofore had
great deal of sympathy for tramps.
claiming that they were simply the
victims or the INSCRIPTIONS money
power and the octOpuseS of protection,
and the unfortunate results of the OPP
preston of soulless corporations.
Some of the farmers above mentioned
have recently lost a large amount of
this sympathy as a result of trying to
get some of the fraternity to go to
work in the harvest fields. They have
had their eyes opened to the fact that
the tramp is more oppressed by his
own innate. all-pervading laziness
than by the grinding heel of an .'oc-
topus,' whatever that is. = Oakley

A London dispatch, dated May 3rd, says

THE TARIFF BILL REPORTED.

The House tariff bill, which has been IN.
der consideration In the Finance Commit.
tee for q month, was on Tuesday reported
TO the United States Senate.
1t has been thoroughly overhauled in com.
mittee, and has been extensively amended,
not to say wholly changed, in several Of it's
schedules. AS whole it is rather more Of
protection measure than when it left the
House of Representatives, and Is probably
u more logical and consistent body of laws,
judged from the standpoint OF high.tariff
legislation.
The sugar schedule has been subjected to
considerable revision along the lines re
ported in recent Washington dispatches
Those grades that were put on the free list
in the Mckinley law will now pay a small
tariff, and the rates affixed are such as TO
furnish some protection to home grown
sugar. TIE sd vslorem duties in the sugar
schedules of the present law are mostly
eliminated, and the revenue to the Govern
ment derived from sugar importations will
be no uncomfortable part of the annual re-
ceipts, il the proposed rates are finally
adopted.
A duty of one and one half cents pound
is levied upon hides, this amendment pre-.
sumably having been added TO sppease the
demands OF the cattle gro ers in the West.
The wool schedule is practically disman.
tied and recast. Rates on first and second
ntoca has kaan roAF md m
third class feeces have been increased. Spe-
ciic duties here also take the place of ad
valorem imposts, and the result of revision
on almost all grades of wooden goods is
"more protection"
The tobacco schedule also came in for Its
share of change, mostly in the direction Of
higher rates, and the elimination OF ad val
orem assessments.
In fact, there is hardly section or clause
of the original House bill that has not been
subjected to scrutiny and amendment Of
some sort The retroactive clause is strick-
en- out; the new bill is TO go into effect July
instead of May 1 the reciprocity section
has been entirely rewritten, and the clause
continuing the Hawaiian treaty has been
omitted. The metal schedules, also, have
been materially altered
In his report, Chairman Allison states that
the bill will be taken up for discussion OF
May IS, and will be considered daily until
disposed of. What its fate will be remains
to be seen, but it is safe to say, 10 the light
of the committees report on the sugar and
leather schedules, that the Senate will main.
tain its reputation for long winded debate
in the discussion of tariff bills.
