Contents of the private packet left BY

nature. According to w. r. Nightin-
gale, who was present when the secret
papers were read, the contents have
a direct bearing on the killing of Mr..
Sayler by Dr. w. L. Miller last Sun
day week, as a result of the alleged
attachment of Mrs. Sayler and Doc.

the public, at least not now,' said Mr..
Nightingale "I will say, however, that
1t is evidence which will prove of
value in the prosecution of Doctor

itated, and States Attorney Pallissard,
at Watseka, was promptly communi'
Gated with by long distance telephone.

Of GENERAL INTEREST

WASHINGTON, July 19.-What has

Or what avail has it been that less
than a dozen senators have fought

iority OF the upper branch from the
START or the tariff bill to the finish?
Two results, and two only. can be
attributed to the fight which lie :nb-
els have made. One is the passage
OF the income tax amendment to the
constitution. The other is the edu'
cation of the people of the United
States in the so-called iniquities of
the protective tariff.
The senate insurgents may be di.
vided into two classes, the real and
the pseudo. The one fought for it's
cause from principle and the other
from policy. The one had their states
behind them because they had led
them there and the others were

Genuine and Pseudo Insurgents.
In the class of genuines should be
placed LaFollette of Wisconsin, Bris-
tow of Kansas, Cummins of Iowa and
Nelson and Clapp of Minnesota.
In the second class are Beveridge

of Nebraska, and Crawford OF South

sage of the senate, but he had often
voted with Senator Aldrich, and
crossed the line for his final stand
with the LaFollette and Cummins
group only a few days before the
final vote was taken.
Although hailing from the same
state, Cummins and Dolliver stand on
a different basis as protestants against
the Aldrich regime. For ten years
Cummins had fought the most power
full political syndicates in his state
before he reached the senate. He had
created his own following by the vigor
and progressiveness of his own ideas, |
and he owed his advancement only |
to his own energy. On entering the
senate he bore the commission of his
people to stand for lower tariff taxes,
and he had united constituency at

I lie DEBATE. upon the SlTlClly le5d1
phases of the tariff bill Cummins was
without a rival, excepting perhaps
Borah of Idaho. Particularly was he
effective in his speeches for the in
come tax and against the corporation
tax. When he essayed iron and stee!
! or sage flour, he floundered. But he
| had the brains to frame an income tax
bill, and the courage to introduce and
defend it; and the net result was the
passage of the corporation taX-and

| ton.
LaFolIette's Heroic Position.
While Cummins and Deliver occu-
pied an ideal situation with respect to
their state, LaFollete, the finest prod
uct of the insurgent school, stood in
wholly different relation to Wiscon-
sin. The Badger state is honeycombed
with, opposition to LaFollette-rall'
roads mills, factories and thousand
and one business agencies which have
had reason to fear the radicalism OF
their former governor. Call it he
roles if you will, but there was pure
patriotism in the act of the man who
refused to vote upon the lead duties
because he held stock in a lead mine
He was the only senator that showed
any such scruples. Scott of West N1r-
ginia, president of a glass company
brought samples of his wares into the
senate chamber and begged for high
err duties. LaFollette attempted the
heights of political sacrifice in his
amendment to the paper schedule
Some $4,000 persons make paper in
Wisconsin, yet LaFollette proposed
to cut their protection from Sc to 81
until July l, 1912, and then reduce 1t
to s2-a rate which he admitted was
not sufficiently protective.
Paper making as it is now con-
ducetd in my state is an unnatural In
dustry," he said, land the remainder
of the country should not be over
taxed to keep it alive. would allow
the mills three years in which to
readjust themselves to the new tarff
conditions and then l would give the
consumers of paper the benefit of the
reduction. Contrast this position with
that of Fordney of Michigan, who rep
resents one-eleventh of the tariff
making power of the country at this
moment, when Fordner champloneu
the outrageous sugar duties affect
ing the whole country, to keep alive
the unnatural beet sugar industry OF
Michigan. LaFollette voted on every
item of the tariff bill as he believed
was right, nor did he premise his crit
icisms at any time with the weak sug-
gestion that he should vote for the
bill as a whole because he was Re-
publican, and it represented the best
he could get.

Bristow of Kansas, for the first time
gave intelligent voice to the atrocities
of the sugar schedule. He conducted |
an educational campaign in the in
quities of the sugar trust that was
without rival in point Of thoroughness
and fearlessness in the tariff legisla
ton of the last generation. He put
into words what the country believed
but no one before had been able to
say. The fascinating Deliver uttered
more captivating criticisms of the cot
ton and wooden schedules, but there
was always about his speaking the
consciousness that he dared not go be-
yond a certain point.
Nelson and Clapp of Minnesota.
shone like pure gold amid the sophis-
tries of debate which surrounded ther,.
They repudiated the value of the pro-
lection which political policy had ac
corded states like Minnesota and de
manded a revision which should he
based on the needs of their constitu
ents and the country only.
Beveridge of Indiana closed Ions
career of brilliant but vacillating in
surgency with an attack on the tobac
co trust which forced even =, the fl
nance committee to concede that he
was right.
A tobacco tax amendment was in
serted in the tariff bill; and although
rumor has it that the conference
committee will knock it out, it canno
do this without subjecting the Repub
lican party to trust obeisance which
will make the party grotesque in the
eyes of fair-minded men.
Burkett and Crawford.
Burkett of Nebraska, comes out OF
the struggle with perhaps less credit
than any other man on whom the
downward revisionists wanted to pin
their faith. He openly joined the i'll
surgent forces at the start of the
session and attended their private
meetings, news of which reached Sen
ator Aldrich in remarkably quick time
after they were held. He voted with
Aldrich as a rule, almost up to the
last moment, when a terrific backfire
from Nebraska caused him to stop
and think; and on the final test he
voted against the very bill which he
had assisted in putting together. -.
Coe I. Crawford of South Dakota,
a brand new man and originally &C
counted a senate insurgent on general
principles, had much the same expert
ence. Crawford early fell under the
influence of Elihu Root of New York,
and only by the narrowest squeak did
that clever diplomatist fail in convert
ing the South Dakotan to an abso-
lutte membership in the Aldrich inner
most circle. ~ =
