DOESN'T SUIT THE WEST

Washington, ID. c.. April 2s.-About two
months from May the Dingley tariff bill
will be as full of holes as skinner. and
hardly recognizable by Its author, and 1t
will be far less OF a protection measure
than as II passed the house OF representa-
tives. There will be many concessions
made TO Eastern manufacturers and the
importers at the expense of Western
miners. woolgrowers. cattemen and other
producers. The bill will be reported some
day the coming week from the senate
committee on finance. Even then IL Will
be greatly altered from It's original as
pcct. and its putative parent will hardly
claim 1t for his own. In all the items In
which Montana people are most, directly
concerned the bill has suffered by the at
tention II has received at the hands of the
republican cobblers of the committee on
finance. Hides will probably be dutiable
and lead ores will be raised, but ON wooI
the bill will sorely disappoint the North
western senators who fought so hard TO
have those schedules made more satisfac-
tory.
Just what these senators can do to inn
prove the bill is doubtful. They will. of
course, try IL. But there Is small prospect
that they can succeed. There will be no
republican caucus on the bill and all
amendments must carry In the senate
itself. Here the group of the npentain
state republicans-Carter, Warrcn., VOL
colt. Shoup and Wilson-will be less po-
tent than in caucus. In party conference
they might wiring concessions from their
New England colleagues. But In the open
senate every senator is on an equal foot
Ing. The substitution OF a caucus of re-
publican members of the finance commit
tee for one OF the republican members of
the senate Is not likely to prove popular
But II cannot be cured and must be en-
dured. The Great West had no voice In the
preparation of the republican prosperity
panacea In the house committee. Senator
Wolcott has been supposed to represent
this region In the senate finance commit
tee, but the bill as II will emerge from
the committee will bear few evidences of
his influence In the way OF concessions to
the Western country. The men that made
the tariff bill In the house were Dingiey
and Payne the men that have repaired it
ir the senate are Aldrich and Platt OF
connecticut. New England and New York
have been all potent and the Dingley-
drich bill. AS II will be known In future
history. Is therefore a measure designed to
t.nderly care for importers and manufac-
turers by giving them cheap raw materials
and protectig their manufactured products
from comneti,Io, he an old n, shiopaJ
tariff.
II is entirely safe IN sav pou eo dsvs I'm
