WASHINGTON, D. c., May TO-
There has been group work in the tugs
of war over the tariff bill in the Sen
ate. 1t is something rather new in that
quarter. When President Charles w
| Eliot, of Harvard, was at banquet
| here some weeks ago, he said the prog
ress of that university had been due
very largely in forty years to group
work. The remark, much commented
upon here at the time, may or may
not have had something to do with the
tactics of debate in the Senate. Sen.
ator Cummins, of Iowa, was one of
those who advised it.
Last week the Republican progress
siyes of the Senate started a group
OF orators to work. It was well under
stood that they had a program of speak
ing mapped out which would consume
considerable part of a week. Several
Senators were to strike blows for revi-
sion downward which it was calculated
no one Senator was strong enough to
strike alone and single handed. Sen
ator Borah, of Idaho, Whanged away on
the income tax amendments; Senator
Deliver, of Iowa, delivered in two in
staliments, covering as many DAYS,
terrific attack upon the cotton and
wooden schedules, flooding the Senate
with elegant and eloquent phrases, and
filing the hearts of many Republican
Senators with hatred for his personal
assaults upon. the Republican leaders.
Then came Senator Cummins. of Iowa,
with sledge hammer blows for the steel
and iron schedules
There were others helping in the
trick, but it succeeded in its main pur-
pose-to impress upon the country the
earnestness of the western progress
sives, who are DINING it into every
body's ears that they want duties low
cred 1t might be mentioned in pass
ing that they are saying precious little
about the duties they want retained
or raised. Whether the speeches of
these low tariff Senators marks the
high water point Of their battling is
yet undetermined All of them are
promising other speeches. They have
been encouraged by their success in
getting the attention of the country
with their initial tariff efforts. They
propose to follow up whatever advan-
tage they have gained and, when the
time comes, 10 press amendments along
the line of their speeches. The indi-
cations are that all, or nearly all, their
amendments will be voted down. The

between their own followers and the
alliance of Democrats and these pro-
gressive Western Republicans are over.
But the old Senate leaders. which

Senator AIdrich, the captain of the

full tariff discussion Mr.. Aldrieh has
been an interesting study. He does
not like to engage in debate Although
fairly good speaker, as that term
IS understood, he has neither the mo-

upon him. He is one of the speakers
of great precision in the Senate. His
sentences are always grammatical and
he uses the right word to fit the ease.
Unctuous as book agent, he told the
Senate all about the wisdom confined
within the covers of the tariff books
the House had printed since early last
December. 1t was interesting to hear
him, for Senator Carter is almost in
variably an interesting speaker.
Senator Hale, Of Maine, was she next
in line TO deliver a blow. This was
intimated ahead Of time by the ques-
tons that Senator Hale pnt to Senator
Carter. The Maine man has been
holding his peace about tariff, because
he feels that he has plenty of talk TO
make on schedules that come farther
along in the bill and on schedules TO
which he has given more attention as
a member of the committee than to
those Immediately under consideration.

down, making it plain that the Finance
