Belief of Iowa Farmers.

Mr. Aidrich, suggesting the settlement
of the question under consideration by
a vote, the Idaho senator vehemently
declared his intention to conclude his
remarks. Mr.. Hepburn and Mr.. Bacon
engaged in a collOquy concerning the
effect of the tariff on prices, and Mr.
Cummins declared that while Iowa
raised ten million hogs annually, her
farmers did not believe the duty on ba-
con and hams had anything to do with
the price Of those farm products.
When Mr.. Culberson (Tex) offered a
portion Of the testimony OF Andrew
| Carnegie as an example of the views
Of a Republican that the reduction OF
duties would lessen the price to the con-
sumer Mr.. Aldrich suggested that some
Democrat should place ali of Mr.. Car
negie's statements on the tariff record
as a Democratic textbook. He had no
doubt It would be used for that pur-
pose for the next twenty years.
Mr.. Bailey acted upon Mr.. Aldrich S
suggestion. asking that Mr. Carnegie's
testimony be printed as a separate pub
lie document. Mr. Scott of West Vir-
ginia objected.
Obtaining permission to reconsider the
action Of the senate in adopting the
finance committees amendments in
creasing the duties on bacon. hams and
lard. Mr.. Aldrich formally withdrew the
amendments. and the lower duties of
the house bill were agreed to.
Mr.. Bacon Of Georgia moved to recon-
slider the paragraph on fresh meat and
game but the senate refused to do so
by a vote OF 80 to %, and the paragraph,
as amended by the finance committee,
was accepted.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1909-06-01
Wanted Aldrieh to Hear.

When Senator Bacon began spea king
upon the duty on bacon and hams, he
noticed Senator Tillman conversing with
Mr.. Aldrich, and protested against the
South Carolina senator diverting the
attention of Mr.. Aldrich.
The senator from Rhode Island is
regarded by so many senators as being
the senate itself that the senator OBJ
1ects to any one talking to him while
he Is speaking retorted Mr.. Tillman.
We'll, that is a fact" acquiesced Mr.
Bacon
Some of US have to talk with the SEN
atOr from Rhode Island" said Mr. Till
man.
The committee on finance had rec
commended an increase from 4 to cents
a pound on bacon and hams, and Mr.
Bacon opposed these amendments.
After Mr.. Bacon had declared that the
proposed increase on bacon and hams.
lard, fresh meat, veal, mutton pork,
etc, would endanger the welfare Of the
Republican party. Mr.. Aldrich smilingly
declared that as he had the welfare Of
the Republican party at heart" he
would withdraw the committee amend
ment in sections $50, PSI and 2S4.

Some Sarcasm.

Appealing to the prOtectionists to
support his amendment, Mr.. Gore said
that if a duty of $50 a ton were placed
on bananas, as was done with lead ore,
the Colorado senator would probably
see bananas raised on the crags of
the Rockies: that the senator from
North Dakota would see the plains
turn into banana plantations. He added
that a change of crops is good for the
soil.
I am not certain If we make the tar
if high enough that we could not make
lemons and oranges bloom and flower
in the very shadow of the north pole, "
added Mr.. Gore in conclusion. Mr..
Cores amendment was defeated The
cotton schedule being reached, Mr.. Al
drich said it was not his purpose to take
up that schedule at this time. NOtwith-
standing this statement. Mr.. Smith of
South Carolina made an elaborate
speech on that subject, taking general
ground against the protective policy.

The Pig and the Hog.

Mr.. Hepburn, asserting that these
rates Of duty should be kept Up because
there were mo more completely dfstr;h-
uted articles among the wage-earuers
than q pig
Mr.. Tillman asked the difference be-
tween the pig and the hog.
Il like the term pig better than hog.
because hog is sometimes applied to diff
ferent classes Of beings" retorted the
Idaho senator.
q have understood" said Mr.. Till
man, that the pig is a baby hog-a
squealing fellow that has to sdueal
sometimes when he can't get a teat."
Interrupting. Mr. Aldrich said the
rates of the house bill in respect to
these articles were protective.
Il have no question about that what
ever Mr.. Aldrich said. IT am not fail
ing in my duty as a protectionist in
making this change At 4 cents a
pound, there is no danger Of any large
impOrtations of bacon and ham into this
country. When the Wilson bill was in
operation with a duty Of cents a
pound, there were no impOrtations
There is no possibility that there will
be large importations of lard under q
duty Of IL cents a pound, as fixed by
the house There was no increase in
those importations under the Wilson
bill"
Mr.. Hepburn insisted that some Of the
rates had been made too low.

ers of the California Fruit Growers as
ISOLATION may yield to the temptation
to get the highest price that they can
for their product"
As the debate on lemons proceeded the
wOrdy exchanges between senators be-
came acrid.
Does the senator believe that state
ment?" asked Mr.. Flint as Mr.. Root de-
clared that foreign lemons are laid
down in New York at S2.42 a box.
The New York senator, replying that
he did not believe his own statement
Mr. Flint responded that in that very
market the price was down to s1.15 to
$3.50 a box. which fact Mr.. Root &C
counted for because the fruit was sold
at auction.
AS Mr.. Root pounded the higher rate
on lemons, Senator Cummins left his
place and, going over to his colleague
Senator DOlliver, the two advocates of
lower rates watched the debaters with
evident satisfaction.

Mr.. Flint met the statement of prof

that they have made only 4 per cent

expressed his hope that the duty would
