REPORT TO TAFT.
Leaders in Tariff Legislation Make
Pilgrimage to White House.

Washington, April 10-The White House
was the gathering point today of host
of representatives, particularly the leaders
of the house who had a hand in the pas
sage of the recent tariff bill.
Speaker Cannon led the pilgrimage and
there was secret in the fact that he
with the others rendered an account of
their stewardship of the new measure.
After the speaker came Representative
Payne, sponsor for the bill; Representa-
tive Cushnan one of the principals in the
fight to keep a tariff on lumber; Dwight
Of New York, the Republican whip. and
Olmstead of Pennsylvania, a member of
the ways and means committee.
The president. like all other good Re-

Men Made Famous by Tariff Revision.

Republican. The chief issue of the
next campaign was tariff revision and
resulted in the election of Harrison,
the Republican candidate. The sue
cess was construed to mean that the
people demanded a higher protective
tariff. This resulted in the enact
ment of the Mckinley bill, which rails
ed duties to a level with that which
had prevailed during the Civil war.
A change of sentiment came and in
the following presidential campaign,
in 1892, Mr.. Cleveland was again
elected and this time he had the sup
port of a Democratic congress.
William L. Wilson, Democratic
chairman of the house committee on
ways and means, carried his bill
through the Fifty-third congress. Mr..
Wilson was great student of the eco
nomic problem and at least one of the
features of the Wilson bill remains in
force today, which provides for re-
duction in all sorts of iron and steel
manufactures.
The Dingley bill, which is in force
at the present time. came with the
Mckinley administration. By the
Dingley act duties are levied ad val
orem and specific.
The problem of tariff revision is
an old one but one which becomes
more complicated with each admins

PROGRESS OF PEACE.
Is Discussed by Secretary OF War in
a Banquet Speech.

Chicago, April 10.-Secretary of
War Dickinson, responding to the
toast 1.-THE Progress of Peace" at a
banquet given by the Hamilton club
in this city called attention to the
fact that mankind was always hoping
or the fulfillment of the prophecy
that strong nations shall beat their
swords into plowshares and their
spears into pruning hooks, nation
shall not lift sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any
more
He said that the time was not far
distant but there has been such de-
velopment and strengthening of the
forces that make for peace that its
advocates are boldly aggressive,
knowing that they have the po-
tentiality that comes from the quick
ened, universal conscience of an en-
lightened age
The present status, in the progress
of peace, he said, is the product of
centuries. International arbitration,
which entered upon a new era in
1915, he said, has so progressed in
our time that no one can doubt that
it is the most powerful force now
working upon the nations for the
temporal happiness of mankind"

CHANCE TO GROW.
Great Opportunity of Assistant Sec
rotary of the Treasury.

Washington, April 1O.-The first
duty to receive the attention of
President Taft's secretary of the
treasury, Franklin Mac veagh. was to
men, some of them of national rep
utation, have been mentioned as pos
sibilities, and their claims for recogni-
ton have been presented daily to Sec
rotary MacVeagh.
r. o. Bailey has been offered the
position and has accepted it.
The position of secretary to the Sec
rotary Of the treasury is a great job.
1t is the stepping stone to dizzy
heights of high finance, big jobs with
big corporations paying big salaries.
In other words, to those realms whose
inhabitants wear frock coats, high silk
hats and dignified expressions of
countenance, ride in limousine cars,
speak in intimate terms of "Mr. Nor
gam and Mr.. Rockefeller" and
exude from their persons a general
atmosphere Of complacent prosperity.
Several men who a few short years
ago were secretaries to secretaries of
the treasury are now big corporation
officers. to which positions they were
promoted after they had passed from
the neophyte stage at the treasury to
be assistant secretaries of that depart

Vanderlip'S Rise.
First there is Frank A. Vanderlip,
who was secretary to Lyman J. Gage.
He was promoted to assistant secre-
tary, and later gathered in by the Ma
tional City bank of New York, long on
intimate terms with the treasury. Mr.
Vanderlip is now president of that in
stitution, and is managing to exc out
an economical existence on salary of
about $4,000 a year. Following close
behind him came Milton E. Allies, who
trod the same path that Vanderlip left
his footprints upon. Mr.. Allies is now
vice president of the Riggs National
bank of Washington and is in no ap-
