PARTY MUST MAKE
GOOD PROMISES TO PEOPLE
OF UNITED STATES.
Everywhere Is Recognized That Payne
and AIdrich Bills Were Drawn
for the Big Interests.

WASHINGTON. April 27.-(SpaciaI
| to the Statesman)-Ho downward
| revision of the tariff, or certain defeat
of the republican party at the con-
gressional elections of 1910.
This ultimatum, brought to the ma
tiOnal capitol from the middle west by
James j. Hill, the railroad magnate
is now being echoed from all parts of
the country, Gall except the New Eng
land states.)
Advices being received in Washing
ton, from the south, the great CEN
trail states the middle west, the far
west and southwest, are to the effect
that the people demand a revision of
the tariff in good faith; they will not
be satisfied with revision downward
principally on raw materials, but in
sist upon a uniform revision downward
on manufactured articles as well.
Everywhere Except in the New Eng
land states), the tendency in public
sentiment seems to be to accept the
Payne and Aldrich bills as measures
drawn practically soley in the interests
of the big manufacturers without due
regard to the welfare of the producers
l.
keeping in close touch with the effect
of the tariff controversy on various
sections of the country, predict the
outcome will be closer political har-
mony between the south and west
These two sections, it is declared, will
sooner Or later be compelled to act to-
gether politically to protect their in
terests in the making of national legis
lation.
Not few republicans are worried
over the Hill brand of predictions. If
legislation they would not dare persist
in forcing a measure like the Aldrich
bill through congress. They would
fear defeat at the hands of their con-
stituents at the first election follow
ing the passage of the bill.
Senator Aldrich is in different po-
sition. His bill which fails to revise
the tariff downward and protects the
profits of the big interests is just the
kind of legislation his constituents de-
sire. The more revision upward he
can inject into the bill the more GER
tain he is of reelection. The revision
of the tariff is wholly at the mercy of
Aldrich and others occupying like sit
uations; for instance, Hale of Maine,
Penrose of Pennsylvania, and in the
house, Payne of New York and Dalzall
of Pennsylvania.
Thus it is that nti-Aldrich bill SEN
timent of the entire country save the
New England states has a hard time
getting results.

REVISE DOWNWARD
OR MEET DEFEAT

! President Taft's position in the tariff
controversy is daily becoming more re-
markable. He is said to be greatly
chagrined because the Aldrich bill
! does not provide revision downward
and yet he is taking, so far as. can be
learned, no step toward having the bill
| improved.
If the president would indicate in the
most remote way that he would favor
! such action, there are in the senate
men of his own political faith who
would attempt to put through a reso-
| luton sending the present tariff bill
| back to the finance committee with in
| structions to make sweeping improve
ments.
A few western senators-eight for a
certainty-WOuld like to introduce
such a resolution. They feel confident
they could win out if they had the
support of the president. The demo-
Gratis would almost solidly support
such a resolution, and if President Taft
would use his influence it is believed
sufficient strength could be organized
to defeat the Aldrich plan of tariff re-
vision, which admittedly is not revi-
sion downward of the character
promised by Taft.
The one word of encOura cement that
would bring out the resolution to send
the Aldrich bill back to committee for
Improvement is not forthcoming, how
ever. Somehow or other these senators
who would like little revision down
ward feel it in the White House atmo-
sphere the president would be hostile
instead of friendly to their idea.
There are a lot of statesmen in
Washington that would like to know
for certainty just what the president
is hoping to accomplish in the way of
tariff revision, and how he is going
about it to accomplish desired ends.
In the view of many the president
is confusing his position by withhold
ing his support from those members
who want to send the bill back to COM
mittee for improvement, and by Civ
ing his support to the Aldrich crowd,
which is hostile to the kind of revision
desired by the country.
What the president thinks of the
statement of Jim Hill, to the effect
that unless the republican party re-
vises the tariff downward it will meet
defeat at the coming congressional
elections, has not yet been learned.
He has not discussed the Hill inter-
view with visitors.
Here is what Mr.. Hill said:
unless the republican party makes
a downward revision of the tariff the
democrats will carry the next house
by a large majority. The platforms of
both parties pledged tariff revision; |
the democrats said they would revise |
it downward while the republicans |
were not so frank, but they were I'M !
derstood by the people to mean that |
reduced duties would follow the cleo !
ton of President Taft. The people in |
trusted the dawnward revision to the |
party. and if it fails, the |
democrats will be given a chance to |
try their hands. l have no interest in |
the tariff, but l have an interest in the
of the country, and what |
the country needs is downward revi-
sion of the tariff"
