Representatives Use Fists
on Each Other in
Dispute

OLYMPIA, Wash, Feb. 16.-Rep-
resentatiye Hanson and Representa-
tive Jackson became involved In a
fistic encounter here today over the
defeat of the eight hour law for wo-
men in the house. The bill which
provided that eight hours should con-
stitute a day Of labor for women in
stead of 10 went down to defeat in
the house by vote Of As to AZ and
shortly afterward Hanson met Jack
son In the corridor of the capitol
building. He accused him Of side
STEPPING his vote on the bill and Jack
son made rush for him and grabbed
him. Hanson then struck Jackson in
the breast, and the two men just got
into good fighting action when they
were separated by friends.
A caucus was held by the senate
last night, and indications point to an
even split in that body on the local

tariff, like the present act. and like
all recent acts. 1t wants the existing
method retained because OF the graft
that is in 1t, or because 1t wishes to
keep the tariff issue out OF politics.
Take Tariff Out OF Politics.
Here is the situation which con-
fronts the country. Congress is to
be called in special session few
weeks hence to revise the tariff. For
us, therefore. who want honest, sane
tarif revision--a tariff adjusted to
the existing trade conditions, abroad
as well as at home--the time to act
is now
Before go any further let me say
that the commission could not now
do the work quick enough which the
extra session will be called upon to
perform, in provisional way. Let
the extra session make the changes in
the duties which 1t believes to be
most urgently and most Immediately
needed, then pass a commission bill,
and then go home. All this ought not
to take more than sixty days. Thus
the promise of the platform and the
candidate would be kept. Thus also
the business disturbances would end
speedily. President Taft would then
have an early opportunity to appoint
the commission. That body could
make the investigation and collect
the facts on which congress, in the
regular session year hence, or in
subsequent session, could base the
tariff adjustment which the country's
business interests, the welfare of its
workers and the prosperity OF the en-
tire people demand.
Our object here today is to take
the tariff out of partisan politics, and
keep 1t out. In this purpose we feel
that we are backed by the great mass
of thinking Americans, consumers
and producers. AS everybody in this
hall knows, the man who will call
congress in session few weeks hence
stands with US"

Replies to Critics.

Here let me give few words to
some of the criticisms on the commits
sion. A few OF the DIRECTORS say that
the work of President Arthurs COM
mission of 1882 was disregarded by
congress. This Is not true. The tar
IN of 1883 was largely based on the
commissions recommendation. And
on the whole. that was the best bal
anced tariff which the country has
seen In generation, President Taft
will have more material from which
TO select commission than Mr.. Ar
thur had, The one which we ask win
be permanent. Thus II can do better
work than Arthur's did.
Some OF our critics say that a per-
manent tariff commissions, Has any
of our critics ever heard or read that
the recommendation of those COM
missions ever unsettled trade over
there? | think not.
Nov let me mention that class of
DIRECTORS, among whom the Ameri-
can Protective TariR league, who pre-
tend that we want the commission to
usurp the constitutional powers OF
congress and frame tariff bills. Let
me tell~SSss my friends. that this
charge Is based partly on ignorance
and partly on malice. Ignorance
makes It because Il has not examined
our proposition. Malice makes It be-
cause It wants to frame a defective
