SENATOR SMooT AND CONGRESS-
MAN HOWELL.

An eastern correspondent of the
Standard writing from Washington on
the work OF the different state dele
gates on the new tariff bill, pays Sen
ator Reed Smoot and Congressman
Howell this compliment.
In the framing of the new tariff
bill with when congress has been en-
gagged since March Is, the interests OF
Utah have been well conserved. When
the revision of the tariff was first un-
dertaken. it was said by some that
the influence of the New England
states was SO great that only the In
j terests of that section would be con-
I sidered In making the schedules and
+ that the Western states would suffer
+ This prediction has not been borne
out. Utahs industries have been we'll
cared for and the people Of that state.
no matter what their politics or what
their views upon the tariff as an econ
omic proposition, will be well pleased
with the result.
Senator Reed Smoot, as a member
of the Committee on Finance, has
had an important part in the work of
revising the tarin. In framing the
wool. lead. silk and sugar schedules.
he has been a very potent factor
These are all interests in which his
state is directly interested and he
has worked insistently to protect them
from any changes in duties which
would prove detrimental. So efficient
was Senator SrnooCs services that the
leaders Of The senate requested that
he be named as one of the conIerees

senate and house and put the final
touches upon the bill The conferees
were selected in order of seniority and
therefore the list did not include Sen
ator Smoot's name. but he was called
into the conference. notwithstanding.
and assisted the conferees in their
work Chairman Aldrich and the 9TH
er veteran members Of the commit
Tee had great faith in Mr. Smoots abil-
ity and they appreciated his familiar
ity with the important Items IN the
bill
In the House of Representatives
Joseph Howell worked and voted with
the leaders to enact a bill that would
be favorable to the industries of Utah
He made strong speech for the bill
and used his influence In the interests
OF his constituents. Taken altogether
no state in the union has q more con.
splcuous and efficient senator and con.
gressman than has Utah and the re,
suits OF their work show the manner
in which their state interests have
been conserved"
