CONGRESS STANDS PAT"
No Chance for Tariff Commission
Bill at This Session.
rFron the Tribune Bureau. ]


Washington Feb 3-There arrived in Wash
inrton to-day a committee of manufacturers.
hea ded by J. W. Van Cieave, OF St. Louis. chair
man of the National Manufacturers Association.
TO urge the creation Of commission to consider
and make a report on the tariff schedules. pre-
paratory to a general revision The committee
declared that the movement for tarfh commfs-
sion was backed by the President. Senator Bev-
eridge and two million voters, and that IT came
TO force" Congress to adopt the Beveridge
tariff commission bill
The committee has been in Washington only
A few hours. but already its members are be-
ginning to suspect that IT has been slightly
misled by the enthusiasm Of Mr.. Beverage, VINO
purposes to address the Senate In support OF
his bill on Wednesday which is the day fixed
for the co-amittee's reception by the President
Before coming to Washington the members Of
the manufacturers association received numer-
Gus letters from other manufacturers support
ing the idea Of commission and stating that
there was a strong sentiment in favor of such
a commission throughout the country Senators
also have received such letters. and when they
began to compare these expressions they de-
ctded that there was a striking similarity
between them. Finally they became convinced
that the source of inspiration was the committee
room of Mr.. Beveridge and that the energetic
Senator from Indiana was the propagandist.
Senator Beveridge, It further develops, has
been assuring the manufacturers that President
Roosevelt was heartily IN favor Of his bill They
TOW find that the President does not regard this
as an opportune time for anything looking tow
ard tariff revision and believes that the wisest
policy 10 pursue is to have the Hepuolican
party In its national platform commit itself TO
revision next year. and for the next President
to call special session Of Congress for the pur-
pose in the spring of 1909 The manufacturers
are also surprised to learn that while Speaker
Cannon will receive them tomorrow, he enter
tafns the view that nothing should be done at
this session. and in sll we'll Informed quarters
they are assured that there is not the slightest
chance Of the Beveridge bill receiving serious
consideration in either houses of Congress at
the present session.
Mr.. Van Cleave ,laid before Senator Aidrich
to-day the views OF the Manufacturers Associa-
tion concerning the tariff commission BILL MT
AIdrich expressed his willingness to have repre-
sentatives of the association present their argu.
ments to the Finance Committee and to receive

DAIRYlNG IN WASHINGTON.

Advance copies of a report to be
issued by the federal statistical de-
Dartment show that there are $4,000
milk COWS in the state of Washington,
the average value being $3S head,
ALSO 3S9 other cattle, averaged at SIS
head, the aggregate value being
placed at 100000. The report also
shows that there are 21,194,0 mich
COWS in the United States, having an
average value of $3O.67, or total
value of s65O,O57, 900; and 50,O73,OOO
other cattle averaging $1,000, the ag-
gregate value being $845, 938,000.
One hundred and eightytwo thou
sand hogs are reported, the total val
uation amounting to 81, 100000. Most
of the hogs for Washington are bought
in Nebraska and Iowa.
Dairymen say there is need for 100,-
900 additional mich cows in eastern
ucts of again as many more could be
disposed of to advantage in the Pacific
states. To emphasize this they point
to the fact that 100000 worth of
butter and dairy products was import
ed into the Spokane country, called
the Inland Empire of the aPcific North
west, in 1907, and they say, there is
every reason to believe that the mid
die western states will send sim
liar amount this year. The farmers
in this part of the country are buying
better grade of cattle; in fact, ex-
perts declare that the best on the
continent are to be found here, but
there are not enough of them to sup
ply the demand, which Is growing to
enormous proportions.

City authorities are again after the
poor dairyman to force him to serve
pure milk to the consumer at the very
modest price which the consumer
wants to give. Of course some dairy
men do belong to the great unwashed
class, but there are also many con-
sumers whose domestic arrangements
are such that pure, clean milk would
form a startling contrast to other sur
roundings. The dairyman is not the
only one who needs. dsinfecting-

The change in the pastors resi-
dence is made for several reasons.
In the first place the problem of Sc
curing additional room for the use
of the Sunday school has been con-
fronting the Sunday school and
church officials for some time and
the necessity of building an addit-
tion to the church has been apparent.
Finally it was decided to let Rev. Ed
wards and family vacate the manse
and move into a larger residence and
to use the rooms of the manse for
Sunday school classes.
This arrangement will give the
pastors family more comfort in their
nome and at the same time relieve
the congested condition of the Sum
day school.

Kate, and Mary, and Sam, and Sybil-

Around and around in their merri-

tripped. The beaux stood attention

ATTRACTIVE WINDOW DECORA
TIONS

Nearly all of the stores in Ocala
have their windows arranged most at
tractively with Christmas goods, and
some of them are attracting a good
deal of attention.
One of the prettiest windows that
we have noted is in the grocery de-
partment of the H. B. Masters store.
The window contains a very pretty
Christmas holly tree, and hanging all
over it are red ribbons in a shower
effect, and bottles and jars of beau
tiful preserves, jellies, mince meats,
pickles, etc. The base of the window
is formed of layers of various kinds
of nuts and crystalized fruits and ma
pie sugar 1t is certainly a tempting
display, and to Mr.. Will Dunn belongs
the credit of arranging this decOra-
ton.
The Teapot and o. K. Groceries also
have attractive Christmas windows,
as have also all of our dry goods and
toy merchants. Miss Mary Afleck's
window is hung with a Christmas
wreath, and all of our stores, in fact,
have beautiful holiday displays.
