Who Is Right?

In giving his reason on the floor
of the senate for voting for free lum-
ber Senator Tillman very truly said,
Lumber is not a luxury, but one
OF the necesSaries Of life" That
when he saw that the farmers, who
had to build hoGses and barns and
fences" were being charged steadily
increasing prices for their lumber,
his opinion in regard to the benefits
OF the. tariff in our State changed very
radically" The Senator went on to
say that he believed in the greatest
good to the greatest number and
when he saw that practically four
fifths of the people, who used lum-
Der, were paying an increased price
for it, be decided if he ever got
chance he would take the tariff off
of lumber. That chance came the
other day and the Senator kept his
word by voting to put all lumter
Oh the free list.
Il do not feel that 1t is my bust
ness here to protect the industry of
lumber which. perhaps, involves the
interests of $4,000 good and wor-
thy people, as against the 50O,-
900 equally good and worthy peo-
pie who have to use lumber, and
We would not be saved from an eS-
orbitant price. because, | think, those
people formed combination and
agreed that they would not undersell
each other" says the Senator. That
is good Democratic doctrine on lum-
Der or anything else.
The Senator concluded by saying
that "the only feason why We were
able, or will be able, to get lum-
Der at a reasonable rate was due to
the fact that there were some old
field pine second growth left in the
upper part of the State and small
patches, or small areas, two or three
hundred acres of 500 acres. all
through in the middle lower region
that lumbermen had not bought or
could not buy at the high prices
mean the great lumber companies,
with their railroads, and all that
sort of thing, running out into the
swamps. The only reason why the
upper-country people could get lum-
ber at decent prices was because a
little one-horEe saw mill. costing
s1,5OO or at most, $4,000, would
90 into these little patches of pine
and saw the timber up and furnish
the people this necessary, as against
these great combinations of capital,
which had absorbed our timber.
Senator Tillman's statement hits
those so-called Democrats who Vot-
ed to tax lumber squarely between
the eyes. If he is right they are
certainly wrong, and if they are
right in voting to tax lumber then
Senator Tillman is wrong in voting
to put it on the free list. NOW,
which do you think best represents
the people who have to pay higher
price for lumber because of the tax
nut on it for the benefit of the big
lumber companies that Senator Till
man says has bought up all of our
timber lands az a small price? VINO
is right? Senator Tillman, who Vot-
ed for free lumber and against the
Lumber Trust, or the so-called Dem
ocrats who voted with the Republ1-
cans to tax lumber for the benefit
of the Lumber Trust?
