Apiil 10 1VV0.
The Senate Committee on Finance
has reported out the Payne Tariff
Bill, and the changes which are made
in 1t give for the first time a fair
idea of what the bill will probably be
like when II is finally passed Some
things are not settled yet and some
will have to be fought out between
the Senate and the House, but in
general the bill is pretty likely TO
go thru in about the shape it is in
now.
In the first place, almost every
change that has been made by the
Senate committee has been in favor
of the poor people. The exorbit-
ant taxes on women's gloves and cot
ton knit goods, such as stockings and
underwear. have been taken off, and
instead a higher tax has been put on
imported perfumes and other Injuries,
which women can easily go without,
and which are used largely by the
rich, any way.
Coffee, tea, hides, oil and a num-
Der of other similar articles are put
on the free list, and it is likely
that on the whole the cost of living
will be still further reduced as a
result of the bill. Sugar has not been
touched, however, but America will
benefit somewhat from the provision
for free sugar from the Philippines.
The increases have almost all of
them been made on articles which
are produced by farmers or poor peo
pie. 1t is likely that the tariff will
go back on lumber, at least to some
extent. The tariff on steel and coal
will be about a fourth less than it
has been under the Dingley bill. AL
together, the changes made are be-
ing generally approved, and the bill
will be much better liked than has
been expected.
