The Senate Compact.

Reports contained in the press
dispatches induct the belief that the
tarif bill as framed in the senate
was for the benefit Of THE selfish in
.terests instead Of meeting the de-
mands of the country. One of the
senate members of the conference
committee told President Taft they
would consent to the reduction Of
certain schedules If they had not al
ready given their promise to certain
members of the senate to prevent
their reduction. 1t is a frank adj
mission showing a "frame-up''
among certain members of the SEN
ate. and in part substantiates the
distrust that has gone forth, in the
west especially. President Taft has
the absolute right to say to these
men that ne has given promises to
the people of the United States that
the tariff would be revised down
ward, and that his promises and the
party pledge must be respected. In
fact that the pledge holds prece-
dence over any compact members of
the senate might make.

central portions OF the state. Hills
farmers can supply this demand with
profit, and 1t appears they should
grasp the opportunity to make the
farm pay in all ways possible. Dair-
les and creameries are needed and
these will be supplied If the farmers
will show There is a demand for
them. The grain farmer finds idle
periods I'm the winter which the dairy
man probably employs in caring
for his herds. The grain farmer sees
his land depleted annually in fer
Utility while the dairyman looks
over his fields and sees a steady in
crease in the yields Of all classes of
agricultural crops. Therefore the

older sources OF domestic supply In
the west. Since 1897 importations oil
of gypsum steadily increased from
1920 tons to $4,000 tons last
year, creating almost a monopoly
for the Canadians, and having at its
mercy the consumer who uses this
gypsum for pottery or plaster. Yet
gypsum is found in t%wenty-one states
those in the east just being worked;
and in New York state a ledge 100
miles long has just been broken into.
Here is a domestic industry de-
veloping from 100000 tons I'M 1897
to 100000 tons in 1907, and not
a TRUST. 1t is divided UP into 80
different concerns, employing over
5000 persons, and running from the
small producer with his $4,000 plant
to the large producer with his $780,
900 plant. With an increased du-
ty sufficient to keep down importa-
lions, the entire market for gypsum
and manufacturers could be supplied
by domestic producers. Then as is
the case at present in the west, the
domestic could be furnished at a
lower price than the foreign because
of the great competition among the
mining concerns supplying the mar
ket. And that is not all. About $780,
600, 900 is invested in forty concerns
manufacturing gypsum products.
Some of these have been using Can
adian gypsum exclusively but an ad-
equate duty would prevent this, for
the domestic would cost no more
than the foreign. Why not give the
Americans the benefit of the vast
growing market for this product and
not permit Canadians to fill their
pockets with our money?
