wooden schedule thought they saw
how tariffs are made.
This was a great mistake. The e
ate in adopting h schedule il did
merely ratified one which had been
agreed on months before by outside
parties. Last October asst and west
met in Chicago. The manufacturers
of wooden goods of one region and the
wool growers of the other came to-
gether to agree on the wool and wool
ems duties of the tariff law which
they assumed would be passed the fol
lowing year. Their conclusion was
that the Dingley law rates should ibe
r~e-enacted. That having been settled
nothing was left but to notify con
gress quietly after it should have
been elected and a convened.
The elaborate hearings before the
ways and can committee were a
farce. The wool and woolens SEIZED
ule was then res judicata. h sena-
| torial debate was a sham fight. AS

HOW TARIFFS ARE MADE.

II Is the popular impression that a
tariff is the slowly worked out pro
duct of protracted congressional in
quiry and matured thought. This i'm
preston is confirmed by long and ap-
parently earnest senatorial debates
over one or another schedule. The
people who sat In the senate galleries
q few weeks ago and listened to the
elaborate discussion Of the wool and

tically all other articles of wearing ap
parel. IL a been intended that
shoes should be cut slightly. but the
wording of the bill cuts that out. For
the table she has not been favored in
the least. Practically all the vegeta-
bles are raised al home and as yet
the Republican party has been unable
TO devise any means whereby these
can be taxed for the benefit of some
trust. Fruits have received a high
err tariff, N of course, the house
wife will have to set aside each year
a larger sum of money for these ar
ticles. YET the interests representa-
tives in congress claim the tariff is
being reduced IN the ne~cessaries OF
life. OF course what we eat and wear
must he Injuries, if the trusts say so.

Senator Gore says he is in congress
to represent: First, his country and
then his party. Many of the senators
and representatives would seen to be
there TO represent the trusts and
special interests first and then their
pocket-books, or perhaps we should
put IL the other way about. Country
and party are not even thought of by
these men.
