MARKING UP THEIR GOODS.

In an article on the Payne-Aldrich-
Smoot tariff in the Natioanl Maga-
zine, by Champ Clark, minority lead
er in the lower house of congress, the
following paragraph appears:
Query: If the Payne-Aldrich-Smoot
bill is any sort of revision downward
were the most inhnitissimal-how
did it happen that importers ran races
against time to get their cargoes in
before the Dingley bill was defunct
and the Payne-Aldrich- Smoot mon
strosity became the law Of the land?
Query No. .: Since when did any
man desire to pay more tariff taxes
than he had been accustomed to pay

fool?" Or were they moved by a
patriotic impulse to get their imports
in before Loeb shut the door in their
faces and the lower CD rates of the
Payne -Aldrich-S -Smoot bill went into
effect? Any man in the wide world
can be hanged for murder on less
evidence than those importers furnish
ed that the rates of PAS. bill are
higher than the Dingley rates. While
President Taft was receiving and Civ
ing congratulations on revision
downward, those poor idiotic import
ers were agitating the circumambient
atmosphere with sulphurous oats be-
cause it is a revision upward and be
cause they didn't get their cargoes il
under the lower rates of the Dinglel
bill!
j If the rates of the PAS. bill con
stitute a reduction how does it hap
pen that every manufacturer or mer
!. chant in the country is marking vi
