When the last word is said about
tariff, the average American feels
deep down in his heart that his own
personal comfort, his own ability to
buy good food and clothing, is the
real test whether the tariff Is too
high or too low. 1t was the distinct
impression of the American people
that Congress, if Republican, would
cut down the cost of living through
new tariff enactments. If this is not
done, whatever arguments may be ad-
vanced to explain why not, it will be
hard for the Republican party to
stand forth as "toting fair If Colo

.A[OR|CR ATTACKS
ANDREWS AND CURRY
SAYS They Have No Right to
Come on Floor of the Senate
but Other Senators Up
hold Them In Their
Work.

Washington, Feb. 17.--The state
mood workers today stole a march on
Senator Beveridge and as q result the
statehood bill will be considered by
the Senate committee on territories
Friday and will soon be reported in
the Senate. The fight is waging ex-
ceedingly warm.
Immediate action on the statehood
bill was brought about today when
resolution introduced In the Senate,
providing that the committee on ter
ritories should report the statehood
oil in three days. Senator Beveridge
went to Indianapolis yesterday to at
tenG '-ls tariff conference 1eing 40 :

of the way when the resolution was
brought up.
Senator Dillingham;, who is acting
chairman in the absence of Bever-
idge, opposed the resolution, but with
Burnham, Kean, Piles, Nelson and
Dick. Republican members OF the
committee, in the presence of SEN
ator Bailey and other Democratic
senators, pledged their words as hon
orable men that they would consider
the bill Friday and report 1t.
As a majority of the Senate is
known to favor the passage of the
bill there is every probability that 1t
will be passed when reported.
When the resolution referred to
was brought up, Senator Aldrich op-
posed it and in the course of his ar
gumcnt, lost his head and threat
ened Delegate Andrews and Governor
Curry, telling them that they had no
right to come on the floor of the
Senate and work for statehood.
Delegate Andrews answered AID
rich. saying that he and Curry would
work on the floor of the Senate when
ever they pleased, as the rules per-
mitted ii. senator Teller and other
senators supported Delegate Andrews
and told him that he and Curry
could enter the Senate whenever they
chose.
The prospects for the passage of
the statehood bill through the Sen
ate never were brighter. The state
ment of six members of the commit
tee on territories that they would con
slider the bill Friday and report il, |
means that the bill will probably be
brought before the Senate next week. |
These six members, who pledged their
words constitute "A majority Of the !
and as they all favor ad- |

doubtedly will be reported favorably. |

Washington. Feb. 17.-Any attack
made hereafter on the lock type of
the Panama canal according to the
opinion expressed by President
Roosevelt in message transmitting
to Congress today the report made
oy the engineers who recently visited
the canal zone with President-elect
Taft is lin reality merely an attack
upon the policy of building any canal
at ALL" The report in Mr.. Roose-
velt's opinion, shows in clearest fash
ion that the Congress was wise in the
position it took and that it would be
an inexcusable folly to change from
the proposed lock canal to sea level
canal"
Il commend to you" he says to
Congress. the most careful cOnsid
Grafton of the report. They show
that the only criticism that can be
made of the work on the isthmus is
that there has sometimes been an al
most excess of caution in providing
against possible trouble. AS to the
Gatun dam itself they show that not
only is the dam safe but that on the
whole the plan already adopted
would make it unnecessarily high and
strong and accordingly they recon-
mend that the height be reduced by
20 feet which changed plans l have
accordingly directed"
President Roosevelt says that the
engineers who made the report are
of all the men in their profession
within or without the United States.
the men who are or the whole best
qualified to pass upon these very
questiones which they examined"
The engineers report that as the
Gatum earth dam was the central
point of discussion they gave it un-
der instructions from Mr.. Taft first
consideration in the light of all new
evidence" and they add that the
type 0f dam now under consideration
is one which meets with our unani-
nous approval"
They say they are satisfied that
there will be no dangerous or object
ionable seepage through the mater
ials under the base of the dam: nor
are they so soft as to be liable to be
pushed aside by the weight of the
proposed dam so as to cause danger
Gus settlement: We are also satisfied
that the materials available and
which it is proposed to use are suit
able and can readily be placed to
form a tight stable and permanent
dam"
Dams and locks lock gates and all
other engineering structures involved
in the lock canal project are "feas-
ible and safe according TO the en-
gineers "and they can be depended
uIOn to perform with certainty their
respective functions
They report that they "do not find
any occasion for changing the type
OF canal that has been adopted. A
change to sea level plan at the pres |
eht time would add greatly to the
cost and time of construction, without |
compensating advantages either IN
capacity of the canal of safety Of
