The South III the Taritf Bill.

The fact is that the agricultural
and industrial South is very we'll
looked after in he tariff measure
that is now approaching its final
form. In compliance with party
platforms and sectional and party
traditions, to be sure, the Southern
democrats in Congress must seem to
demand "A generally lower tariff and
more rapid approximation toward
the revenue principle as opposed to
the protective theory. 1t is never
the-less true that these gentlemen
are feeling quite complacent; and
they are not going to antagonize the
majority party at the present mo-
ment beyond the point required by
decent sort OF consistency, and by
moderate amount of foresight as
regards the congressional elections
of November, 1910. The sugar and
rice of the Gulf States, as we'll as
the oranges and lemons of Florida
and the tobacco of other southern
states, are all handsomely protected
by the pending measure, and so also
are most of the other products, agri-
all the region extending from Vir-
ginia to Texas. The two important
articles most threatened were iron
ore and common lumber. The pros
pect seems to be that iron ore, which
was made free by the Payne bill, and
which was made dutiable at few
cents per ton in the Aldrich bill, will
carry small duty in the completed
measure. AS for the common grades
Of manufactured lumber, which the
lesire to have placed on the free
list, in order to have access to the
Canadian forests as against the pres
ent duty of So per 1000 feet, it S
now probable that in the finished
measure there will be found lum-
Der duty of not less than 81 per
1000 feet. New England, which de-
sires to obtain coal from eastern
Canada without paying duty, may
succeed in having that article kept
upon the free list, although EhE
South would prefer for double rea-
sons of advantage, to maintain the
tariff upon an article which nature
has so abundantly deposited in the
lower Appalachian region. The
South has plenty of coal to ship by
rail and water to points further north
and it can also use the coal at its
doors to enable it to build UP manu-
featuring as against New England
where the cost of fuel is serious
handicap. A little study Of the stu
alton in concrete detail will show
why Southern statesmen who have
the habit of talking free trade IL

tial toward protection In the con

APPROPRIATIONS IN DANGER
Unless Congress Takes Action Big
Sum Will Go Rack.

Washington, May Sunless con-
gress takes specific action bearing
on the special session nearly ST.
100000 appropriated for the i'm
provements of rivers and harbors
will be converted back into the
treasury and will cause much cha
grin to many congressman and SEN
ators. The situation arises over
the Converting back" section of the
sundry civil bill approved March
4 and which. provides that the I'M
expended balances on the treasury
books. June, 1904, except permanent
specified appropriations, shall be
carried as surplus fund and con-
verified back into the treasury. TO
meet the situation Senator Burton
introduced resolution that that
section of the sundry civil bill be
construed as applying to unex-
pended balances of the river and
harbor appropriations.

half so much as South Dakota does.
We have the resources. In the last
six years, this state has produced the
largest per capita OF new wealth of
any state in the union. Other states
have grown faster because they have
been better advertised. 1t is now
time for South Dakota to put her
best foot forward and let the whole
world know what we have. The way
to do this is to buy a button, and
help along with your cash.-Argus

out the country are indorsing the
stand taken by Senator Guggenheim,
of Colorado, who at meeting of the
Senate Census committee, objected
to the plan to have the Jews class
flied as race, as we'll as to their
nationality. He insisted that Jew
is native of the country to which
he swears allegiance, being different
from other citizens only as to relig-
ious belief.

The tanners and the manufacturers
of shoes, harness, ETC., are about the
only classes that are clamboring for
free hides in the new tariff bill. They
insist that the duty on hides goes
only to enrich the packers and does
not benefit the farmers. If this is
the case it is remarkable that the
packers did not make something of
a fight against the free hide provi-
sion when the tariff bill was being
considered in the house. About the
only industries that appeared con-
spicuous in the house lobby at that
time were those representing leather
and leather manufactures and they
were able to secure the favorable &C
ton of the house by big majority
Since then more light has been
thrown on the subject and the SEN
ators seem inclined to favor a rea-
sonable duty, not at all prohibitive,
that will protect the vast live sock
interests of the great west and the
farming industry.
