Done for a Purpose.

Mr.. Bacon declared that other sena-
tors had noticed the practice. and as
serted that frequently it had been re-
sorted to for the purpose of effecting
cloture. And" he continued. L have
good reason to believe it was done with
the knowledge that such was the pur-
pose"
He then referred to the all-night ses-
sions of the last congress when the Al
drich-Nreeland currency bill was under
discussion when. he declared, that bv

The name of the senator from Rhode
Island heads the senatorial list" he
SAID, and by answering promptly he
could have the roll call under way with
out little delay" said Mr. Bacon.
This statement brought the Rhode
Island senator to his feet with prompt
ness. and he made the declaration that
he proposed 70 exercise his constitution
al prerOgative of hearing the roll call
without hearing the senator from
Georgia.
Mr.. Bacon promptly responded that
while he conceded such right. he did
not propose that Mr.. Aldrich and the
clerk combined could deprive him of
MS right of debate. He added. signif-

SENATOR BACON
ROSE IN WRATH
Attempt Made by Senate Clerk
to Apply CIoture and
Shut OFF Debate.
WAS WORKED ONCE BEFORE
ACTION FINALLY TAKEN ON
SUGAR SCHEDULE.

Washington, May Ex-senator Al
drIch succeeded today in getting action
by the senate on the rest of the sugar
schedule with the understanding that
the para graph fixing a duty on raw and
refined sugar should be again placed
before the senate if Senator Clay should
SO improve in health as TO permit him
TO move an amendment cutting the fig
ures I'm two. The tobacco schedule was
also completed
No changes We're made in the finance
committee rates on either schedule. The
sugar, the tobacco and agricultural
schedules divided the attention of the
senate, with incidental remarks by
Senator Bacon and a general tariff
speech by Senator Stone.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1909-05-29
Clay Was Emphatic.

Mr. Clay spoke ON the sugar schedule.
We are granting favOrs to the most
uncomfortable trust ever organized in
the United States" he declared. speak
ing with vigoT. A band Of thieves
and robbers" he said. is roDbing the
American people. and I will retract
nothing I have sa d. for 7 know from
investigation Of what I have spoken
and we should not give the trust free
sugar unless we make reduction IT,

After being reminded that his amend
ment provided for = reduction on re-
fined sugar without an equivalent re-
duction on crude. AR Gore withdrew
it in favor Of that formerly presented

PoInt Made BIZ "a. eristow.

Before Mr.. Aldrich had made his re-
quest mat the paragraph be agreed 10.
senator Br-stoW had taken advantage
or the opportunity To submit some
newspaper clippings showing that af-
ter the vote Of yesterday by which his
amendments reducing the duty on re-
fined sugar and eliminating the Dutch
standard tests had been voted down.
there had been an advance Of five points
IN the stock of American Sugar Refin-
ing company, which. he said. showed
who had been interested in defeating
the amendments
Air. Gore offered an amendment re-
ducing the duty on refined sugar 20
one cent per pound. which. he said. he
was confident would be voted down.

Much Criticism.

Senators Gore, Bristow and Clay crit
icised the provision for a duty on raw
and refined sugar, and Mr. Clay re-
peated his allegation of fraudulent
transactions i'm the interest Of the sugar
trust. Mr.. BristOw declared that the
trust has benefited by the defeat of his
amendments yesterday.
Senator Bacon remarks consisted Of
charge that the reading clerk and the
Republican leaders were in collision to
shut of debate.
Senator McCumber spoke in behalf Of
a protective duty on agricultural prod
ucts. predicting great falling off in the
American production Of wheat in the
near future
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1909-05-29

Mr.. Bacon charged that by collision
between the clerks Of the senate and Re
publican senators, cioture had been eff
fected i'm the senate and the rules Of
that body nullihed. The sugar schedule
had been taken up and the senate was
about TO vote on an amendment offered

fined sugar to 1 cent per pound

ed. whereupon one of the clerks imme-
dlately started upon that duty
Mr.. Bacon at once ordered a halt and.
declaring he had addressed the chair
before the call had begun immediate
iy entered upon a protest against what
he declared was coming to be the prac-
tce of the clerk i'm so promptly begin
ming his call as to cut off senators who
had gained recognition from the privi-
lege of being heard. He declared such
a practice was becoming frequent. and
asserted that the clerk is not there as
the representative of any party or of
any senator. but is here TO do his duty
and is not entitled to so manipulate the
roll call as to prevent senators from
being heard "

TT DEPENDS ON TAFT AND PAYNE

i whether hides shall be free of tariff duty. as they were before the enact meut of the Dingley tariff, depends upon President Taft and, Chairman Payne of the House committee on lWays and Means. the latter being fmemher of the Conference committee. IUpon the decision of this matter hinges the question whether the tariff duties
 on shoes, harness, etc, shall be reduced i which would lessen the cost to con 1, su1ners, and whether the Beef Trust
 shall continue to control the hide mar ,ket and to extend its grip upon the tanning industry. Both President lTaft and. Chairman Payne regard this
 matter of making hides free of duty as the turning point between upward and sdownward revision, and therefore
 stand firmly for free hides.
 The House bill made hides free: the
 Senate bill retained the present duty Of 15 per cent upon them Senator Aldrich has offered to compromise at
 7K per cent, which was promptly re-
 fused by Messrs. Taft and Payne wfereupon Aldrich became angry and called Payne ''dictorial', the aibsurdity of which characterization is evident when the fact is recalled that the Con- ference committee is packed with AL ] drdch supporters and that Payne stands virtually alone and would be wholly
 powerles<s but for the Presidents sup
 port The character of the committee may
 be Judged from the fact that MT. Fordney of Michigan. the wealthy tim iber-land owner who was appointed to l 1t in place of MT. Hill, has said that
 : if he had his way, he would not change the present tariff by. the .tdotting of
 an or the crossing of a t." The other members, with the exception Of
 MT. Payne, are of the same tariff breed
 as Fordney except perhaps that they would increase the present duties.
 with the Conference committee thus
 constituted, 1t would be hopeless to
 expect any downward revision, were it not for the determined position taken Aby President Taft and MT. Payne. The l former desires to fulfil his campaign ! pledges; the latter holds that the en- | tire protective system is at stake-that- idf the tariff is revised upward, public
 sentiment will revolt and proceed to establish the principle of tariff for revenue with incidental protection lcnly, which is, by the way. the one reputable tariff principle.

One French aviator having success fully and swiftly crossed the channel to England, the people of the latter may now regard their apprehension of the possibility of an invasion by means of airships as partly warranted. They have heretofore considered themselves efficiently protected by their superior fleets but if airships can be used for transportation of soldiers, this naval protection becomes a. negligible quan- tity. But there must be great inn provements in aerial navigation before airships can be made large and power full enough to transport armies with their munitions of war, though it might be possible ito carry enough high explosives in several of the present day type to wreck fleets and destroy Qualifications. Novelists have already plctured wars in which airships were Go used effectively, and close observers ITO pgod5ctinE that the next great war
