washington, ". VI, may 10. lSUS,
Tho tariff continues to be almost
the sole topic Of interest In political
circles Ia Washington, as II Is 10 q |
considerable extent In business and
financial circles elsewhere.
Nogreat amount OF progress Is be-
Ing made by the Senate just now al
though one thing has been demon
strated during the last week and
that Ii that II Is hopeless to look for
any overthrow Of the Aldrich Or
ganization In the upper House. The
votes on the various schedules have
varied. 10 Is true, but not material.
" and the usual division shows the
strength OF the organization to be
about 81 votes as against Al for the
combined strength Of the Democrats
and the Republican insurgents. A.
somewhat unfortunate phase Of the
situation Is the regularity with
which certain Democratic Senators
vote with the organization. q regulA-
rity which gives color 10 the allega-
tion that Mr.. Aldrich has q reserve
force OF Democrats TO draw on when
ever Q sufficient number or Republi-
cans hfsnk away from the orRnniza-
lion# 70 rgiier necessary calliaqso ukl
s14 reserves. rue most Uptimistic
observer Of the events In the Senate
cannot reasonably predict any ma.
torinl changes from the tariff as re-
ported by the Finance Committee
before u passes the Senate. The
earnest advocates, OF tariff revision
downward are still making brave
fight, but they are gradually turn
Ing their eyes toward the White
House 40 the 0nly power which can
save the country from the reenact-
ment Of q measure which Is virtual-
" the Dingley Law with afew moon
sequential changes.
From the White House comes the
information that the President has
not changed his views In the slight
esh and that be will veto any bill
which. In bis estimation, does not
fulhll tho pledges OF the party and
Of himself as its leader and which
does not constitute q genuine revi-
sion downward. When these rel
terated assertions Of the President
are submitted TO the Senate leaders
they fall back on the declaration
that ell tariff bills are made 10 con-
ference and once they succeed In
getting the bill through the Senate
thoy will then make such alterations
AZ are necessary 10 secure the ap.
proval OF President Taft. This
seems 10 be 0 probable prediction
for che Congress can hardly afford
70 have the President veto The tariff
bill, course la which be would DO
amply sustained by popular opinion
and which would only reflect un.
fortunately on those servitors OF the
special interests who had violated
their pledges and make such q
course necessary.
Assuming that the Senate leaders,
once they have passed their bill. 20

price 81 his approval, as Expressed

of the consumer will rest with the
Chief Executive. On him will be q

THE BATTLESHIP MISSISSIPPI

10 show that the Mississippi Is
capable Of bearing the commerce OF a
continent aud that 1t is susceptible to
great Improvement IN It's upper
reaches, representative Dickson OF
the Seventh District OF Mississippi is
trying TO have the battlcship Miss.
issippi sent up the river to receive the
silver service Mississ ippl is to give
the ship. He would have her 90 up
as far as possible Memphis, he be-
lieves, should have an opportunity OF
seeing sup that, in the event Of
war, would be in the front line OF
battle, Incidentally, OF course, this
involves him in a friendly rivalry with
Representative Bowers, whose idea is
TO have the Mississippi receive the
service at Gulfport. The new member,
however, believes 1t would be better
for the navy to have the ship shown
TO rs many OF the people OF Mississippi
aud the great valley as possible, even
as a stimulus OF greater devotion to
u
But Mr.. Dickson's primary thought
Is that such a trip by such a ship
would be an unanswerable argument
for the Improvement OF the river. He
also believes u would show how little
reason, II any, there Is for the propo-
sition TO close the New Orleans navy
yard,
Mr., Dickson is not inviting trouble
for himself by suggesting any particu.
lar place where the presentation
should be made. He is simply trying
10 have something done that will show
the value Of the river as a waterway,
and give the greatest number Of Mis-
sissippians an opportunity to see the
battleship. He is not even limiting
the proposed cruise TO Mississippi
ports, but Is willing to have the con.
nressmen from other States, bordering
the great river, use their influence TO
have II ordered. His idea is that
Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mis-.
souri, aud Kentucky should take an
Interest in the matter and help.
In this connection Pascagoula feels
that the presentation OF the silver
| service should take place at this place
while the lighting ship rides at anchor
In the roadway Off Horn island The
question, however, Is one that will no
doubt be satisfactorily settled by
those having the matter In hand and
no matter where the presentation
takes place we, as a people, should
never forget that the fighting machine
bears the honored name of Mississippi
and will when called upon do equal
honor TO herself, the State aud the
Union whose flag floats proudly TO the
breeze from her masthead.

PICTURE OF DAVIS TO BE ON THE
SILVER SERVICE.

Clarion-Ledger
Thelikeness of Jefferson Davis Is to
be engraved on the centerpiece of the
silver service to be presented to the
battleship Mississippi, instead Of that
Of De Soto, as was at first intended.
The picture OF Beauvior, Mr.. Davis
home is to ornament this piece OF the
silver service, and Mrs. Lockwood de-
termined It would be more appropri-.
ate to have the likeness OF Mr.. Davis
there also.
Knowing that Mrs. Lucy Green Yer.
ger, OF Greenville, who Is State histo.
rlan OF the United Daughters Of the
Confederacy, is well up Ia all such
matters, Mrs. Lockwood asked Mrs.
Yerger to select picture OF Mr.. Davis
from which the engraving Is to be
made. She has complied with the re-
quest, selecting q picture OF Mr.. Davis
taken during the time he lived at
Beauvoir, go that the leader, OF the
Cunfederacy and his old residence on
the Mississippi Gulf Coast will be
shown together.
