FOR TARIFF REFORM
SENATOR DOLLIVER SAYS TIME
FOR CHANGE HAS AR
RIVED
PRESENT LAWS A MENACE
Iowa Legislature Formally Elects
Allison and DOIliVer and Lis
tens to the Latter's
Tariff Ideas.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Jan. 22.-In joint
session of the legislature at noon today
the vote taken yesterday upon United
States senators was formally ratified,
and certificates ordered issued to Sem
ators Allison and Dolliver for terms of
six and five years respectively, Senator
Dolliver being elected to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of the late Senator
John II. Gear.
Senator Dolliver, in an address upon
his reelection, said in part:
There meyer has been a time, and
there never will be a time when an
American industry, making an une-
qualled and even a precarious fight with
foreign competitors will not find among
our people the spirit of encoura cement
and helpfulness expressed in the laws of
the United States. And yet nobody is
any longer blind to the fact that with
many of the industries of the United
States the rates of duty which, in 1897,
were regarded as reasonable, have since
that time owing to the curious develop
ment of our industrial and commercial
life, become Unnecessary and In many
cases even absurd. They stand on our
statute book today no longer a shield
for American labor, but they have in
many cases been turned as a weapon of
offense against the American market.
DeleNe thaC l. speak Tor the average
judgment and good sense of the whole
community of Iowa when 1 say that
these defects in our laws ought to be
corrected, and 1 express a confidence
that the congress of the United States
will be able, in a spirit friendly to the
principles upon which the protective tar
im rests, to correct these defects in a
business-like way, unless we are COM
PEELED to admit that congress has be-
come helpless in the presence of questions
like these

WANT CLEAN BILLS
LUMBER EXPORTERS RESOLVE TO
SUPPORT BILL OF SENA-
TOR NELSON
rs TOO MUCH CARELEssNEss
In the Handling of Lumber Shipped
to Foreign Ports ON the Part of
the Carrying Steamship
Companies.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Jan. 22.-The con-
vention of the National Lumber Ex-
porters' association began at the Grand
hotel here today, and will continue to-
morrow. The association is composed Of
the leading exporters Of lumber of the
United States. About twenty represent
atlVe exporters were present, including
the following officers: President Ernest
M. Price, of New York; First Vice Pres
ident H. N. Saxton Jr, Knoxville, Tenn
Second Vice President John L. Alcock,
Baltimore; Treasurer Richard w. Price,
Baltimore, and Traffic Manager and Sec
rotary Elliott Lang, Memphis.
The principal object of the meeting is
to agree upon ways and means of urging
the passage of a bill introduced in the
senate and house recently by Senator
Knute Nelson, of Minnesota, and Con-
gresham Gibson, of Tennessee, entitled.
An act relating to the transportation
Of merchandise between the United
States and foreign ports, to bills of lad
ing and certain obligations, rules and
rights in connection with the carriage of
property"
Kick on CareIessness.
What the lumber exporters are trying
TO insist upon is the receiving from the
ocean steamship companies of clean bills
OF lading. They complain of the care
lesSness of the steamship lines in the
handling Of their lumber cargoes, thus
causing, among other things, great
damage from contamination with other
freight, and the destruction often of lum-
Der during the voyage. This movement
is to compel the steamship lines to de-
liver the lumber at its destination in as
good condition as it was received on
shipboard. There are also other minor
grievances sought to be rectifed con-
nected with the handling of lumber and
other cargoes by the London dock COM
pantes, and alleged excessive charges by
those companies. Ambassador Choate
a short time ago formally reported to the
secretary of state these abuses. 1t APP
peared from the discussion today that
the manufacturers of cottonseed products
in the South would be asked to join the
movement.
