assfdO TARlFF
SAYS NC W. JoEi$55
Quietus Put On Revision talk BY
ord a From sylvan Glades,
III Of Illinois

e WASHINGTON, D. q, Nov. IS
The talk about revision of the tar,
sif and special session of Congress
to accomplish it is very obnoxious
to Speaker Cannon. He will have
none of it in his committee room,
where meets the Committee on Rules,
the small body which governs the
House of Representatives. His
views on the subject have been sent
10 Washington, SO there may be no
mistake at the White House or any
other place where conferen ces on the
subject are taking place.
81 made the fight for Congress
man on the platform of no revision
and we won a House in which the ma
jority will be from 100 to 10. There
was no mistake about it. Everybody
understood what would be the result
If a Republican Congress was elected.
The majority in the next Congress
will be the greatest we have had
since 1894, 1when we regained power
on the contention that the Wilson
German bill ought to berepea1ed.' Z
That is the form in which the
speak er has expressed ms opinion
Speaker Cannon comes pretty near
being the court OF last resort in this
matter. The President may call
Congress together, but 50 long as
Uncle Joe is Il stand-Datter there can
be no legislation on the subject.
Only a revolution at the polls two
years hence can accomplish it.
There was some talk on tariff lines
to-day at the White House, when
Representative Serene Z. Payne, OF
New York, chairman Of the House
Ways and Means Committee. and
Representative McCleary, OF Mime
sofa, called on the President. The
matter was brought up only in the
most cursory manner, and those in
attendance. denied that there had
been any suggestion OF revision.
