pleaded with the police official that
he did not want again to get into any
trouble. The description given him
by the man who had bought the bomb
in no way compared with that Of
Vincent A. Altman. or his brother
Joseph, and the former was not taken
to the county Jail for the purpose of
attempting to identify the former
Altman.
The man was brought to detective
headquarters by Detectives Lyman
and Savage. who found him at his
home. He told the detectives that he
had made bombs many years ago and
was still able to make them. Fear
of getting into trouble again had been
the reason for his stopping tho work.
Think Many Bombs "Phony."
The fact that many of the bombs
used in tho so-called war against:
gamblers made great noise and did
little damage has led the police to be-
lieve that such bombs as Benedic;
called "phony" may have been used.
The one which wrecked the central
exchange Of the Chicago Telephone
company, however, was genuine with
out question, and 1t is information
concerning this one which is most
sought.
C0nfers with Detectives.
Acting Assistant Chief LAWN passed
great portion of the morning in his
office in the city hall in conferenc0
with his detectives. He declared that
he would like an interview with Will
liam Loos, business agent for the
Carpenters union and organizer for
the Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners Of America. Loos is said to
have told friends that he was drink

loon at 1862 Washington street few
minutes before the explosion at the
telephone exchange took place. Loos
has been sought for several days by
Detectives Sheehan and Murphy of the
acting assistant chiefs office and it
was their belief that he had left town
on account of the affair.
Goes to Denver, Col.
1t was learned today that he had
gone to Denver, COL. where there is
dissensension in the ranks of the car
penters and that his position as or
ganizer would probably keep him
there for several weeks.
A conference was held between
LAWN and Sergt. Fred Rogers of Fire

Tariff ON Egyptian Cotton

We clip the following from the ably edited
Macon Telegraph:
Any Congressman who says a duty short sta
pie cotton will have the slightest influence upon
the price of common cotton, is either simpetOn
or a Experimentation JeffersOnian
'Abstractly and essentially this statement is
true. But it is tremendously misleading. 1t is
aimed at Congressman Brantley.
GAS matter of fact nobody is proposing "a duty
short staple cotton
But duty is proposed Egyptian cotton,
which is long staple and which completes with
our Sea Island cotton grown exclusively in South
ern Georgia, Florida, and on the Carolina coast
No one contends that this duty would affect the
price on the short staple
This is frank confession that our Govern
ment cannot frame a tariff act which will en-
able the grower of common cotton to advance
the price of it. Other factors than tariff du-
ties control quotations.
This admission of the Macon Telegraph in
wolves important consequences. Everybody
understands that tariff duties generally in
crease the price of the articles upon which
they are placed. Under the American sys-
tenn, tariff schedules are prepared for that
purpose Primarily, the object is to protect
the producer of the articles on the dutiable
list by shutting out the foreign competition:
thus the American is enabled to demand
higher price. Tariff bills should, of course,

seem to prove that even the price of our long
staple is fixed abroad.
That portion of the Egyptian cotton which
is not made into Balbriggans is manufactured
into spool thread If we place tax on the
raw material, the inevitable result will be that
the manufacturer and the jobber will simply
add the tax to the price of the thread, as they
pass it on to the people who buy it. The Man
ufacturing Trust and the Dry Goods Trust
will never themselves bear the burden of any
such tax. Anybody who is familiar with the
operation of such laws is bound to admit that
the consumer of the goods is the ultimate
payer of the tax.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1909-07-01

ness, an endless chain can be created. which.
with some such organization like that of the
Standard Oil Company behind it, can indeed
become veritable octopus, throwing it's far
reaching and irresistible tentacles around
every industry of the entire Union
So far as the State of Georgia is concerned,
her Constitution forbids one railroad COM
pany, or other corporation to buy shares of
stock IN any other corporation of this State,
or elsewhere. [ am aware of the fact that the
Federal Courts have held to the contrary
With monstrous perversion of the powers of
constituting Constitutional provisions, they
have destroyed the meaning of paragraph Z,
as it is found on page 469 of the Stenographic
Report of the Proceedings of the Constitu-
tional Convention. The language is:
"The General Assembly of this State shall
have no power to authorize any corporation
to buy shares or stock in any other corporation
in this State, or elsewhere"
Now that clause makes complete sense in it.
self 1t is clear to my mind, from the speech
es made upon the general subject, that it was
meant to stand by itself as separate, indie
pendent clause. Further on in the paragraph,
however, is the provision that the General AS
sembly of this State shall have no power to
authorize any corporation to make contract
or agreement with any other corporation
which might have the effect of defeating or
lessening competition in their respective bust
nesses, or which might encourage monopoly.
The conclusion of the paragraph is:
"And all such contracts and agreements
shall be illegal and void"
Yet, wonderful to relate the Federal Court,
constituting this paragraph, tackled on those
last lines to the 1srst in order that they might
escape from the Legislative intent, which was
that no. railroad corporation, or amy other COR
porati0m IN this State, should be azzoaoed to
bug shares Of stock IN aaay other corporation
IN this State, or elsewhere.
We are feelingly reminded of the way in
which the life qcas construed out of this vital
portion of our fundamental law by the ON
nous fact announced in the papers, that the
greatest railroad criminal that has ever yet
appeared in the history of this country has
laid his cruel claws upon the poor old Central
of Georgia [ allude, of course, to E. H. Har-
riman, about whom we shall have something
to say from time to time.

be constructed for the purpose of securing
revenue for the Government, but not since the
Civil War has any tariff act been framed in
accordance with that principle.
In the Mckinley bill, in the Dingley act,
and in the Payne-Aldrich schedules are thou
sands Of articles whose prices will be in
creased by the tariff duties placed upon them.
The farmer has to buy hundreds of these com
modities. Practically everything that the
grower of common cotton has to purchase is
enhanced In its price by reason of the tariff.
Now if it be true, as conceded by the Macon
Telegraph, that no tariff bill can be framed
which will enable the grower of common cot
ton to get better price for it. then the neces-
sary consequence is that the tariff COM
pels him to pay higher prices on nearly every
thing that he buys without compensating him
In any way by giving him higher price for
what he sells. Therefore, to the farmer who
grows common cotton, the whole tariff system
is an unmixed and tremendous evil. Nearly
every tariff duty hurts him and not one of
them helps him.
Those Democratic Congressman who have
voted to place tariff duties on lumber, TIMBER
logs and long staple cotton have simply voted
to increase the number of cOrmOrantS that are
devOurlng the growers Of common cotton. In
stead of taking pity upon this chief victim of
tariff blood-suckers, Congressman like Mr.
Brantley and Senator Taliaferro vote to clap
on more leeches.
There are about 900 acres of land in the
South devoted to the growing of long staple
cotton; there are more than 32,O00,O0O acres
devoted to common cotton The Brantley-
TaliaferrO proposition is to lay an additional
burden on the 30, 100000 acres for the benefit
of the $4,000 acres. There are only a few
thousand of farmers who grow the long sta
re tO q lYn la
that will give these favored few higher
price, which must in the end be paid by the
many who grow short staple cotton and by
the millions of others who purchase the va
rious articles made out of the Sea Island cot
ton.
Where is the justice of putting burden of
that kind on the most numerous class of cot
ton growers?
Less than hundred thousand bales of long
staple cotton of $50 pounds were pro-
duced in the United States in 1908 The
Egyptian crop for the same year was 1885,
900 bales. Of this, 143,490 bales were import
Ell into this country To what extent did that
Egyptian cotton compete with the long staple
of the South? A large part of it certainly did
not. A portion of the Egyptian cotton which
we import is manufactured into unbleachable
cloth generally known as Balbriggans, used
largely for hosiery and underwear. This kind
of cotton is not produced in America at all:
we grow no cotton which can be made into
unbleachable CLOTH
Then, again, Egyptian long staple certainly
does not compete in the slightest degree with
what is known as Charleston long staple
This is the South Carolina Sea Island cotton,
and IA ,534 bales of it were produced last year
AS we understand it, every bit of this
Charleston cotton was sent abroad, mainly to
