VIEWS FOR AND AGAINST.
Discussion of the Philippine Tariff
Bill in the House.

After The Stars report of the House de-
bate on the Philippine tariff bill closed yes
terday Mr.. Needham (Cal) spoke in favor
of the pending bill as carrying into effect
the settled policy of the republican party.
He saw no imminent danger to any Amer
lean industry as result of the bill, and
said the Pacific coast had been built UP so
greatly by the oriental trade that 1t owes
a debt Of gratitude to the Philippines which
1t should pay by tariff legislation favorable
to the islands.
Mr.. Mouser (Ohio) spoke against the meas
ure, saying he did not think it would re-
suit in the benefit which its supporters de-
clared the Filipinos would enjoy under such
measure.
The bill, according to Mr.. Norris (Neb),
was enormously named. 1t should be en-
titled AN act for the purpose of deceiving
the Filipino, for menacing American indus
try and for the enrichment of the sugar
trust" He took Mr.. Payne's statement,
there is some sentiment in it, and said
If that was a good reason for legislation
he wanted to call the attention of the
House leaders to the fact that there was
sentiment for tariff legislation on the DEM
ocratic side. Surely this sentiment was as
worthy of recognition as sentiment for the
Filipino. In Arizona and New Mexico there
was unanimous sentiment against joint
statehood, yet 1t was to be forced on them
In the House. and in the country there is
u
one to come? He would guess not unless
the American people learn to talk Tagalog
and dress In tropical smile and a fig leaf.
Support of the measure was given by Mr..
Garrett (Tenn.) on the ground that every
argument that could be made in it's favor
was democratic doctrine. He saw this same
tendency in many directions regarding
much republican legislation.
The Massachusetts, tariff situation was dis
cussed by Mr.. Gardner OF that state. He
announced himself good deal of stand
pat protectionist. At the same time he
recognized the growing sentiment in his
state for revision. The demand of the shoe
manufacturers for free hides and sole leath-
err he said. was the only real addition to
the natural democratic tariff element In the
state He suggested that 1t would be wise
craftsmanship to revise these two sched-
uies without going into a general tariff re-
vision. Within a year, he said, the sole
leather situation had changed for the worse
for the manufacturer.
The debate for the day was closed by
Mr.. Scott (Kan), who said he should vote
for the bill as assuring the proper meas
ure Of justice to the Philippine Islands,
which he believed, always would remain a
possession OF the United States.
After passing a bill authorizing the Wash
ington Bridge Company to construct
bridge across the Columbia river at We
natchee. Wash. the House, at 5:21. ad-
journed until tomorrow at IL O'Clock.

ADDRESS BY PINCHOT
ONE OF THE PRINCIPAL SPEAK
ERs AT CHICAGO BANQUET.

CHICAGO, January 13.-In an effort TO
bring before the public as prominently as
possible the necessity for the preservation
OF forest resources throughout the United
states, this question was the only topic dis
cnssed at the annual banquet here tonight
OF the Merchants Club. The principal
speakers Of the evening were Clifford
Pfnchot, chief forester In the Department OF
Agriculture. and Mr.. N. W. Mcleod of St.
Louis, president of the National Lumber
Manufacturers Association.
Both speakers gave a detailed account of
the progress being made to perpetuate the
timber supply of the country, and that the
people of the United States were becoming
aroused to full sense of their duty to pre-
serve and restore to the nation one of it's
most important resources.
Among the great services which Theo-
dore Roosevelt has rendered to his coun-
try, said Mr.. Pinchot, few will rank
higher. and no one will endure as long or
be so long remembered, as what he has
done for the promotion of irrigation and
the preservation OF the forests"
The Forestry Department.
THE forestry department Of the u s.
government, said Mr.. Mcleod, has ac-
complished what comparatively few years
ago was looked upon as an imposslbilty,
that Is. bringing into harmonious relation
commercial and academic forestry In so far
as the present value of raw material and
the operation conditions viii admit lum-
bermen are adopting forestry practices in
whole or in part
1T has been demonstrated by plans fur
nished by the Agricultural Department
that under favorable conditions large tracts
or timber. under private ownership, can
be proftably operated under forestry regu-
lation and annual crop be secured
The education of the people, as we'll as
the luTnbermen, to forest practices for the
general good Is progressing rapidly, and
as the Ieuple come TO understand the for
est question more fully wise measures for
the preservation of our timber resources
VIII undoubtedly be adopted"

THE PRINTERS STRIKE
END OF SECOND WEEK FINDS
TYPoHETEA IN GOOD SHAPE.

NEW YORK, January 13.-The Typothe-
tae issued the following statement today:
The end OF the second week of the print
ers' strike finds the Typothetae IN better
working condition and more confident than
at any time since the contest began. The
composing room forces would be much
larger but for the elaborate care taken
by the employers to engage only men whose
references and records have been inves-
tigated, and who are certain not to be
union agents. Arrangements were complei-
ed today to import enough printers next
week to give every employer a complete
composing room force.
"A committee representing the former
employees of the Butterick Publishing Com
pany today made overtures to the firm
with a view of the entire force returning to
work on the firms conditions. The Butter
lex company. however, declined to enter
into any negotiations, and stated that they
had already filled all the strikers places"

DECLARES THE STRIKE Is WON
Typothetae Fears no More Breaks in
Ranks-Claims to- Have
Full Force.

Many of the striking printers sat about
tables in their headquarters at 9th and d
streets northwest in groups last night and
discussed the strike situation. The sun
downers'' in Uncle Sans employ who are
said to have entered the controversy as
strikebreakers. as exclusively told in The
Evening Star yesterday, received share
of attention. While the laymen gossiped
in the main room their leaders held a
meeting in the private apartments that have
been partitioned off for the use Of the
members of the strike committee.
Chairman Parsons and Committeeman
William G. Kidd were smiling and hopeful
when a Star reporter entered the room last
mic hit.
I'VE are well satisfied with the situation
said Mr.. Parsons. land believe the employ
ing printers of Washington will soon rec
osnize the Justice of our claim and give us
an eight-hour day and union shops. 1t is
a mistaken idea TO claim that our. union is
trying to conduct any mans business or to
interfere in his ownership rights. All we
ask is fair play. We are not seeking to
encroach on any mans rights but we do
intend to preserve our own rights
At the meeting of the strike committee
last night the weeks work was reviewed
and the determination expressed to con-
tinue the contest along present lines. The
government employees who have taken the
places of striking printers were severely
criticised. but nothing could be learned as
to what action the committee will take in
