the American party is the only party
that does things. The chief church party
is in control of the State administra
tion. 1t had the last legislature in
the hollow of it's hand, for it controlled
a unanimous vote therein. And what
did that legislature do1 1t started
out with high sounding promises of re-
forms and benefits. 1t did absolutely
nothing and closed lis session under
the undisguised indignation and con.
tempt of the whole State.
And because Of the high principles
and the great work Of tho American
party, 1T deserves success, and will un'
questionably achieve it at next fall s
election; and also because ii is the
only party that docs things.
The Legislature and the Governor
wrestled for upwards of ten weeks with
the liquor question, doing nothing there
in The American council passed a Wig
orous, strong. and commcndable liquor
ordinance almost Immediately upon the
adjournment of the Legislature. That
is Dnt one instance Dul IL is CDH-
spicuous one, and it can well stand out
as an example Of a free party, com.
posed of independent citizens, in fine
contrast to a priest ridden party which
knows not its own mind. and is utterly
unable, by reason of the fetters upon
il and by reason of the fact that the
church party legislators arc deprived
of tho right of personal initiative,
from doing the things that they should
do for the people Of the State.
And so, The American party faces
the coming municipal campaign in this
city with high courage and splendid en-.
thusiasm. IL appeals to the people,
first Of all, on the basic principles it
represents, and with equal confidence
and power il points the people TO the
vast progress ii has stimulated, and asks
upon its record the triumphant approval
of the voters Of Salt Lake.

SMOOT AND WOOL DEBATES.

Smoot appears TO be having even less
success in Quitting in on the wool
tariff schedules than he did on his alb.
surd pretensions on the cotton sched.
ules. The fact that the Provo woolen
mills have been shut down for long
time does not help Smoot any. in his
attempt TO elucidate on the wool sched-
ulcs. And when he run up against Sen
ator Dolliver Of Iowa, he met with an
ignominous rebuff. And when Smoot
specifically denounced what was called
"wool waste as not wool nj ALL but
combed hair used in the making of
coarse goods, such as horse blankets and
the like, DolIiver put it to him that IT
made no difference whether it was that
or not, il was required 10 pay duty Just
the same, Smoot had 10 admit the
fact and so his butting in only harassed
himself
There were some curious byplays in
the discussion, one of these being when
Senator Carter had a box of samples,
showing The various grades of wool and
explaining 10 the Senators the bearing
of the tariff proposals. upon each quail"
ity and species Of wool and the products
Of wool
Senator Warren, in presenting his
sample Of clothes, however, appears TO
have reached the climax of absurdity.
He claimed that the wool III the suit
Of clothes cost only 81, but that the
making cost $50 and the trimmings $l2.
The total cost Of the suit, therefore
was $40. the main items of the $32 be-
ing in the trimmings and the making,
and 81 the actual cost Of tho cloth
used. To put trimmings TO the value of
$l2 on cloth costing only -, would
seem to the average student of econom-
les most frightful display of shabby
prctensions and folly. And TO pay $50
for making up Of the cloth, costing
only 81, appeals to tho artistic rather
thant to the mechanical qualities of the
tailor; as a practical. everyday propo.
sition nobody is fool enough to do
il. The exhibit must have been cspe-
cially prepared for the occasion, for we
doubt if ANYBODY in the United States
as a question Of actually clothing
himself. could possibly think Of putting
$40 of making and sl2 of trimming on
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1909-06-10

cloth that only cost 81 in the first
place. Mr.. Warren should he stood
upon the economical Ounce block and
kept there as a standing warning
against pretentious folly; or at least.
the suit Of clothes ought TO be kopt
permanently on exhibition, so that all
the Senators can see extravaganza run
ming idiotic riot on small basis to
start with.
The chief contentious between Scna-
tor DoIliver and Apostle Smoot, seem
to he that Dolliver desires TO put the
duty on an ad valorem basis, which
Smoot claimed to be absolutely impos.
siblc But Doliver contendcd that the
ad vaorem basis is the only fair one
upon which TO levy these duties, since
il seemed 10 him absurd to be paving
duty in excess of the market price Of
wool This was in reply 10 Smoot s show
ing that during the Cleveland admins.
tration, wool dropped to and cents
pound, and claim that even 100 per
cent duty at that time would have
flooded the country with foreign wool
But, of course, that was q abnormal
price for wool, and Dolliver found no
difficulty in easily confuting the
Smoot proposition on that score.
IL is encouraging, however, to see
that some of the Senators arc actually
trying 10 get these wool schedules TO
take form on the market price or prac-
teal business basis; for it is absolutely
absurd TO have duty on wool at a given
rate all the time without regard to the
market price. After a while perhaps,
the propricty of having a sliding scale
of duties, not only on wool. but on other
products, may dawn upon the sena atorial
intellect as clearly moro desirable and
far more in line with practical bust
ness sense than hard .aud.fast duty put
on without regard TO the market price
Of the goods imported
