Utah Fares Well.

Utah Jared exceptionally well I'm the
recent tariff legislation. perhaps better
than any other state i'm lie Union. Utah
has three principal Industries. WOOl-grOW-
ing lead mining and the manufacture of
sugar. Each one of these industries is well
protected i'm the tariff bill The Dingley
rates ON wool and lead are re-enacted ana
the rate on sugar is reduced only D cents,
from S1.95 to S190.
The only place i'm the bill where Utah
is injured is i'm making hides duty Tree,
and the effect of this is mluimized by
the passing of d concurrent resolution
which does not permit the manufacturers
of leather goods to profit at the expense
of the cattle raisers-
As the bin was originally passed IL
provided that all shoes and leather goods
manufactured from the hides of cattle
shall be admitted duty free This was
what we termed the Joker i'm the tariff
bill The hides of cattle are defined as
hides weighing twenty-five pounds or
more. Such hides are used only In the
manufacture of sOIos and heavy harness.
Under this clause the duty would remain
i'm force on am shoes and practically all
other leather goods.
we discovered the Joker after the
tariff bill had been passed, ana ] drew
a concurrent resolution instructlug inc
eugrossing clerk to correct this clause
in the bill The resolution which was
passed 10y both houses provided that all
the hides of cattle of whatsoever weight
or age be admitted duty free. The reso-
luton also made the clause apply 10 all
harness. whether or not 1t was made oi
leather The result was that the Joker
was eliminated.

Duty on Zinc Ore.

"A feature of the tariff bill that is of
Importance to Utah and The west Is the
placing Of "a duty on zinc ore. Zinc min
ing is one of the COmiug Industries OF
the west and its development depends
upon the degree TO which it is protected
of from oue-fourth of cent to one cent
pound ON zinc ore. The lower duty is
on low grade ore. which it is imprac-
ticablc TO import. so that, as matter
of fact. the duty is one cent pound
This makes it feasible to mine zinc with
out having to compete with the cheapir
produced zinc ore of other countries
understanding as Co the effect of the new
tariff law. The new law is substan-
tiaI revision downward of the tariff on
all of the necessities There is a pTaC-
teal reduction of the duties on steel and
on other important and necessary COM
mOditias. We increased the tariff on
champagnCs and other luXuTies. There is
cotton products because of q new process
that makes class of cotton goods almost
rs fine as silk. This class of fabric we
placed with the lUNVTies.
The pledge of tile Republican party
made I'm its national platform has been
admirably fulfilled ina this tariff bill The
pledge was for ID revision of the tariff
not necessarily revision downward The
Democratic party pledged itself to revise
the tariff downward, but the Republican
party did not The rule by which the
tariff was to be revised and the rule by
which it was revised is found in the tariff
plank of the Republican national plat
was TO be revised with a view to equaliz-
ing the cost of production at home and
abroad. That is the cardinal Republican
principle of protection.

Downward Revision.

when we went to work framing this
tariff bill We had not i'm view the down
ward revision of the tariff so much as
the equalization of tine cost of produc-
ton to protect American Industries. Il
So developed that there was material
downward revision of the tariff In APP
plying the rule laid down ny the plat
form we found it necessary 30 reduce
some schedules. TO retain some at the
present rates and to increase others. 30
many instances we increased the duty
on Injuries. because il is an automatic
fact that the person who can afford
Injuries can afford to pay duty ON

The task of framing good tariff bin
is very complex one ] believe it was
Tom Reed who said that al perfect tariff
bin existed only in the mind of one man.
and that there were as many perfect
tariff bills as there were senators ard
representatives i'm congress. That I be-
leVe is largely true. Each senator and
each representative is eager to protect the
interests of his own section of the couu-

have no tariff legislation.
In itah we are eager to have the

retained on lumber I'm Utah we want
free lumber that the miners may get
cheaper timberng for their mines. Yet
1T would appear Inconsistent in me to
ask the senators from Washington To vote
TO retain the tariff On lead and at the
same time tell them that ] must vote
for free lumber. To is necessary that
those who reap the benefits Of tariff
legislation also bear its burdens.

tho sum Of 100000 more representing
duties which have been unpaid during

fraudulent weighing. The companies
further agree to give up their right OF
appeal
The settlement was made upon the ad-
vice of the compa MES lawyers. A state
ment from the latter was made pub

settlement seemed wise because Of the
fact that the government had threaten

amounts reaching nearly s9.00o0o0.

the civil claims made by the govern
ment against the companies. does not
prevent the bringing Of criminal prose

the use of the fraudulent device through
the use of which false weights were
recorded.

covered by the claims settled to-day is
