U. c. v. Reunion
The Citizens Of chickasha Know Their
Duty and Will cheerfuIIy
Perform It.
BY CAD ALLARD.

The citizens of Chickasha have new
er fallen down on any large under
taking
Where the people got behind it
And they are not gong to at this
time on the U. G. v. reunion.
They can't afford to.
Then, too, our citizens are too much
in earnest in their desire to concen-
trate the eye Of the pleasure-seker on
Chickasna to allow an opportunity
such as this grand meet win give to
go by default.
The citizens will do their duty in
this particular as they have in many
such equally as questionable outlooks
of the past.
Chickasha cannot afford to have it
go to the world that her people will not
carry out an agreement made to fur
nish entertainment to so meritorious
meeting as is the one proposed for
the 26th and 27th.
The veterans are not to be with us
many years and probably this will be
Chickasha's last opportunity to enter
tain the u. c. VS..
The U. G. VS. and the G. A. RS
are today one and inseparable and to
entertain either or both in state re
union should be the proud privilege Of
any city.
Every citizen should feel it a privi
lege and not a duty to come forward
with liberal subscription to the fund
now being solicited for the grand state
reunion Of U. G. VS..
Many will respond to the call and
the reunion will prove one Of the grand
meets Of the year.
Chickasha has duty to perform
AND SHE WILL DO IT TO THE
FULL.

and allowed someone else to get
busy and. what's more, gave them as
surance Of his assistance.
sThis is an unusual instance but Il
shows that Jones thought more OF the
progress and the advancement of his
home town than he did Of his own per-
sonal interests. That is why Chicka-
sha has the reputation It has today,
and that very thing of self-sacrifice
will go further towards building a city
than all the commercial clubs and civic
societies and all that sort of thing you
can get up"

Has Been Made.

Washington, April 24.-The first
reading of the tariff bill for considera-

concluded when the senate adjourned
Friday. According to an agreement
made when the reading was begun
that every paragraph of the entire
bill will be subject to amendment when
it is taken up for final consideration
on each paragraph next Monday
While the whole measure is thus sub
ject to further revision, all concede
that substantial progress has been
made. There will be no return to.
many of the schedules. There was
comparatively little debate on the
measure Friday, as Senator Aldrich
postponed replying to many questions
asked of him in order to hasten the
conclusion of the reading of the niea-
sure, saying he would make full ex-
plantations when the various amend
ments receive final consideration.
Many provisions, including the wood
pulp and wool schedules were Friday
passed over on specific objection.

BAILEY OPPOSES TARIFF
DISCUSSES PHASES OF PENDING
PAYNE MEASURE.
Argues for His Amendment Providing
For an lneom Tax-Favors Re.
striction Of immigrants.

Washington, April 27.--Denouncing
the principle Of protective tariff as
unfair in taking moaey from one man
to give It to another in order to en-
courage him in the pursuit of another
wise Improbable business, Senator
Bailey, of Texas, delivered set
speech on the Democratic side in op-
position to the pending tariff bill.
Both the floor and the galleries
were crowded. Mrs Taft occupied a
seat in the presidents gallery.
After he proceeded without inter
ruption for over an hour, several SEN
ators engaged in colloquys with him.
Referring to Mr.. Baileys statement
that the duties OF the pending bill
might be lowered 80 1-3 percent, Mr..
Aldrich asked whether he supposed
the profits OF American industries
equalled that amount
Mr.. Bailey replied that In the case
Of the United States Steel corpora
ton, he believed they had, and he
cited the increased capitalization OF
that organization as an evidence OF
the enormous profit. He insisted that
such lowering of the rate OF duty
would not seriously affect importa-
tons because he belived American
manufacturers would be simulated by
the added foreign competition and
would continue to supply the markets.
Mr.. Bailey discussed his amend
ment providing for an income tax
which was crltlzed by Mr.. Aldrich as
tending to reduce the production
would be given American labor II 1t
should result in apportionate de-
crease of customs duties.
Mr.. Bailey favored restriction of
immigration as a protection to Amerf-
can labor. Mr.. Aldrich retorted that
while Mr.. Bailey was ready to keep
the foreign laborer from our shores,
he was not averse to allowing the
product of this cheap labor to come In
competition with the product of
American worhngmen.
