The New Tariff

Senator Guggenheim writes that
the new tariff bill as passed con-
tains number of items of great
interest to the people of Colorado
because of the home industries
which are affected by them.
OF the farm products duty of
ten per cent ad valorem is placed
upon sugar beets.
On honey, of which Colorado
produces about s5OO,OOO per year,
the Dingley rate of 20 cents per
gallon is retained.
The potato crop of Colorado
amounts to about S6,65O,OOO a
year, considerable amount of
which is marketed abroad. A pro-
lection of twenty five cents bushel
is maintained on this item.
On dairy products, Colorado's
production of which reaches over
S27, 100000 yearly, the present
rates are retained in this bill.
The hay crop of Colorado last
year amounted to S19,5OO,OOO, be-
ing two-thirds of the gold output
of the state. The Dingley rate of
81 per ton on hay is unchanged in
the present bill
The production of starch from
potatoes is new and growing in
dustry in Colorado. Under the
Dingley law the duty on starch,
from whatever substance produced,
was one and one. half cents a
pound. Under the new bill po-
tato starch is given a protective
duty of one and one-half cents a
pound, while the duty on starch
made from other substances is re-
duced to one cent per pound.
Cattle hides were placed upon
the free list by the Conferees.

any country not imposing export
duty, etc, on certain forest prod

Colorado's output of wool
amounts to about 81 900, 600 yearly.
The Dingley rate on wool remains
unchanged.
A reduction was made on print
ing peper, valued at not above 21
cents per pound, from S6 per ton
to S375 per ton; valued above 24
cents pound and not above p
cents pound, from IS per ton to
S3.75 per ton.
Paper envelopes were reduced

ad valorem.
Rough marble, large quantities
of which are now being produced
in Colorado, and the industry of
which is just beginning, retains
the present Dingley duty of sixty
five cents per cubic foot.
The present Dingley rate on
Fuller's earth-crude, s1.50; re
fined, $500 per ton-is retained in
the bill. Considerable capital is
invested near Sterling, Colorado,
in this enterprise, and large
production is predicted for the
near future.
The duty on mineral waters, an
industry which is steadily growing
in the state, is the same as that
contained in the Dingley law.
