Chicago. July 17-John Callan
O'Langhlin, the Washington cores
pondent Of the Tribune. states that
President Taft has heard the call of
the people and will interfere in their
behalf in the tariff question. The
Tribune today prints the following
O'Laughlin dispatch, filed last even-
Ing:
President Taft clarified the tariff
situation today by issuing his first
formal statement on the subject.
It win crafty the people to know
that tho president has heard their
call. He u emphatically in favor Of
the principle Of downward revision,
which he says he promised during the
campaign. While not committed to
the principle OF free raw, materials
generally. he must be shown why iron
ore. oil. coal. and hides should not be
placed upon the free list.
The president was moved to make
hts statement by the need which has
arisen for dispslling all doubt 40 to
his attitude. He had been told that
the conferees could not concede the
numerous reductions he had demanded
because Of threats made by members
Of the senate and the house that they
never would vote for a bill which fail
ed to protect interests involving the
tuents.
AS Mr.. Taft said. he. as leader OF
the republican party and president OF
MI the people, naturally has a broader
view of the situation In the whole
county than hAy any single member
Of congress. It II his hope that as .
result OF the explanation of his atti.
tude he win remove opposition and
enable all the republicans to support
the kind Of a bill he seeks.
Statement from White House.
The statement Of the president
made after white house conference
follows:
Mr.. Young of Michigan opposed
tree ore. Mr.. Mondell opposed free
coal or reciprocity with Canada and
free hides. each on the ground tha,
the policy would iniure the interests
IN his state, and discussion was par
ticipated in by other representatives
who urged that the doctrine of fret
raw materials was not republican
doctrine.
The president replied that he wa,
not committed to the principle OF fre,
raw material. but that he was commit
ted to the principle OF downward
revision Of the tariff. which he has
promised. and that he was Obliged tt
look ct the matter not from thu
standpoint Of any particular distric
but from the standpoint Of the Who'll.

Of responsibility for the entire repub

Senator Beveridge in one of his many
eloquent Independence day addresses
compared the critics of America to an
admirer OF the poet Whittier.
'These critics." he said, "fail to
bring the necessary sympathy and
knowledge owe with them, and hence
they are unsatisfactory-like the Whit.
tier pilgrim.
"Pilgrims used to visit Whittier con-
tinually. A typical one came from
Missouri. Though told that Whittier
had a headache, he forced his way
into the poets study. where he de-
clared that he adored all Whittier's
works, which he knew almost by
heart. He asked Whittier to write
his name several hundred times on a
large sheet of foolscap, so that he
could cut out and distribute the auto
graphs among his Missouri friends
in fact, 1t vas all the poet could do to
keep the enthusiastic Missourian from
clipping all the buttons from his coat
as souvenirs.

would end the anecdote pathetically-
