Criticising clifford Pinchot. chief for

Representative A. NJ. Palmer (Pa. J.,

Mr. Craig Speaks.
Ridiculing the praises given the
Ways and Means Committee for its
work on the tariff bill by those men,
bers who at the same time criticised
certain features Of the measure, Rep
resentative Craig (Ala.) said that the
committee had reported a bill which
would afford further protection for the
already highly protected interests.
Mr.. Craig used as his text a state
ment made by Representative Long
worth in his speech last week in which
he said that in the Payne bill the
Republican party was keeping faith
with the American people and that 1t
was now here to, deliver the goods"
$50 many varying and conflicting
statements have been made here by
members OF his party as to the ulti-
mate -effect OF this BILL" said Mr.. Craig.
that 1t Is a difficult matter. from their
statements to say just what the goods
are to which the gentlemen from Ohio
alludes. But when we look at the
bill itself the difficulty no longer exists
for there we see what the goods are
and to whom they are to be delivered.
THE goods delivered to the people
are higher prices for clothes. coffee,
tea, soap, pepper. spices. cocoa and
chocolate, hosiery, gloves. books and
paper articles made of sugar and mo-
lasses articles made from hemp, jute
and flax, lemons. perfumery and prac-
tically everything else that human
could possibly want"
Continuing Mr.. Craig declared that
the goods delivered" to the Standard
countervailing duty ofA00 per cent to
$50 per cent, which has made of 1t the
most gigantic trust of all times and
has placed In the hands OF a few men
enough money to create a panic in
the country whenever II suits them to
