The Beef Trust alone is benefited
by the tariff on hides, while millions
and millions Of dollars have been
lost to industry through the cut
ting off Of employment in industry
which would continue to pay fair
wages were this unjust handicap res
moved.

The Tariff On Hides

No civilized country on the face
Of the earth breeds enough cattle to
furnish sufficient leather for domes-
tic use. We're no different from
England or Germany or France. We
don't raise half enough leather for
our shoes and betting and dress-suit
cases, for our harness and upholstery
and a world of other things.
This leather is called neat leath-
er-it's the thick hide from the
backs Of beeves-it's a by-product
Of the slaughtering business. We've
never had enough-hides have al
ways been on the free list, except
during the civil war and up to 1872,
because it's far better to have
enough raw material to give en-
ployment to our citizens, as shoe
makers and saddlers, than to get a
very small income from tariff
whose pro rata distribution in the
shape Of benefits for the people
would be far less than the increased
taxes which would accrue from their
greater prosperity.
All along, all sorts Of hides were
on the free list. nobody ever want
ed them off, the free list, no states
man ever wanted them off, no farm
er ever wanted them off, no tanner
ever wanted them off. It is far more
advisable to give employment to
Twice as many workers by bringing
IN the raw pryduct that would en-
aole Us to put them to work and
provide for their families, and in
the end we've made more money by
putting superior American brains
ana skilled American fingers manu-
featuring all types of leather goods.
MT only for home use, but for con-
sumption abroad, so that we could
increase the wealth of the country
and' therefore, the revenues of the
government and decrease the list of
unemployed.
Il was because hides were on the
Tree list all along that American
Slloes could keep so many thousands
9 work, and hundreds of communi-
yes found their sole support at this
industry. It hides had been on the
'aflH list, inasmuch as we couldn't
set enough leather in our own coun.
uy' the increased cost of the raw
material would have counteracted

Washington, March 4.--Waslington
was swept by q blizzard early today.
AItho President-Elect Taft insisted up
to almost the last moment, that his
inauguration should be held in front
of the capitol building as planned, the
committee on arrangements finally de-
cided that the ceremonies should be
held in the senate chamber. Taft said
that he did not mind the snow and
wind in the least, but Senator Knox, IN
charge of the program, declared that
it would be unwise to subject the aged
chief justice and older members of the
senate, to adverse weather conditions.
Roosevelt and Taft We're escorted to
the capitol promptly at the hour set,
their progress thru the binding snow
being met with cheers from the thin
fringe of hardy spectators who braved
the elements, and stood ankle deep in
SNOW and slush along the distances OF
Pennsylvania avenue.
|, Reviewing Stands Uninl1abitable.
Wet clinging snow, driven before a
stinging northw est wind, fell turnout
the night, wrought havoc with Gele-
phone and telegraph wires, completely
cutting off the capital city from cofn-
munication with the remainder of tie
country for hours. Snow and slush
filled the streets to the depth of foot
or more, in places. The wind thrashed
many of the city's prettiest decorations
to threads. The immense reviewing
stands along the line Of march were
made well night uninhabitable. by the
swirling snow. Street car and railroad
traffic were impeded to the extent Of
seriously" delaying the arrival of thou
sands who had planned to attend the
inaugural ceremonies.
Parade is MARRIED. :.
The parade planned for the after
noon was so curtailed as to partially
spoil what promised to have been the
most splendid spectacle of marching
men ever seen on Pennsylvania ave-
lnue. The owners of reviewing stands.
privileges and ticket spectators will
lose thousands of dollars. Today's
storm was the worst Washington has
known in ten years, and followed
weather which for a time yesterday
was suggestive Of late April. fog
was followed by heavy showers ana
rising temperature. Thunder and light
ming played about the city in the att
ernoon, then with the coming of night
snow began to fall. Prof. Wills Moore,
in charge of the weather service, sent
a message to Taft at the White House
Loot piuht assuring him that thru the
vale of binding snow, he would take
his office under cloudless skies, with
a flood of sunshine and temperature
about 40 degrees.
The inaugural parade started from
the capitol at L: 40 p. m.
BY 2 p. m. a large street cleaning
force had cleared the central part Of
Pennsylvania avenue of snow. The
avenue was cholsed with thousands,
who had gathered in spite of the slush.

ings When Sherman is Made
Vice President

Retiring and New President Witness

Place and Expiring of Old Congress
Before Changing officiaIdem
Out in Force.

Washington, March 4.-With SIM
plclty and dignity in keeping with
American traditions the initial proceed
ure attending the Inauguration of the
president of the United States, which
included the swearing in of the vice
president and of all the incoming sena-
tors, was conducted in the senate
chamber in the presence of a distin-
guished company consisting of leading
officials of the three co-ordinate
branches of the government and the
diplomatic representatives of practic-
ally every nation OF the world. In point
of interest the personality of the men
occupying seats on the floor of the
chamber was equaled by the gathering
in the surrounding galleries, which
were filled with the women who make
up the social life of the capital and
whose names are scracely less gener-
ally known than those of their, hus-
bands or relatives who took part in the
historic event.
Galleries Are Opened.
AT II o'clock the gallery entrances
We're thrown open to the holders OF
cards of admission. Each senator had
been given two and each representative
one, of these cards, without which
guests were not permitted to enter the
senate wing. The demands of those who
desired to witness this great quad
rennial event were so great that the
exclusion became a necessity. Every
detail of the ceremony had been ar
ranged in advance with the greatest
care, and the senate officials were act
i've in seeing that nothing occurred TO
