DEFECTS IN THE PAYNE BILL.

In the main the Payne tariff bill
appears to be a sincere attempt to
make square deal revision, with a
distinct tendency to lower rates. But
there are few faults that will cost
high when it comes to the congress
sional election of 1910.
One OF these is the tax on gloves.
Women do not have votes, but their
antagonism costs high. A conviction
en- their part that the Payne tariff
tends to increase the cost of living
will start a hostile electioneering
bureau in every home in the country.
Taxes on spices are increased by
the Payne bill. These will arouse
the antagonism of house keepers. A
tax on coffee has been seriously re-
garded at Washington. Where is the
wOrkingman who does not depend on
his morning coffee for a heartener
tor the days toll? Who is he going
to vote for for congressman, when
his wife tells him that he can't afford
his usual cup?
The true principles, as says Mr..
Carnegie, is to tax luxuries. The
Payne bill places number of in
creased taxes on articles absolutely
necessary in the humblesJ home.

Consideration of amendments to
the Payne tariff bill by the Ways and
Means Committee began last week
and it is reported from an authoria-
tive source, that the committee ax-
poets to report not less than two hun
dred amendments to the bill. This
is about fifty less than were carried
in the Dingley bill when it was con-
sidered for the second time by the
committee. Doubtless the great ma
jority of these amendments will be
merely formal and of no Importance
so far as the country is concerned.

The maximum-minimum tariff plan
in the Payne bill seems to meet with
less opposition in Washington than
when the bill was first introduced
Unquestionably the country wants
tariff rates lowered generally and any
arrangement which would involve
applying maximum rates, except in
an emergency, would meet with dis
approval. The minimum both of
protection and revenue should be
clearly established, and the Temporal
ry application of the maximum rates
to small part of our importations
should be treated as an accidental
enlargement both of protection and
revenue and as in no sense a IRE
measure" ...s-e-.,--.-e

President Taft has made it clear
to the leaders of Congress that he
will engage in no controversies over
specific duties on the tariff bill,
though he adheres in his position
that he will deem it to be his duty
10 veto the Payne bill if the Senate
deprives it of its revisiOnary fea-
lures. The President. also. has let it
become known that If the tariff bill
gives promise of inadequate revenue.
Congress may hear from him with
forceful recommendation of some
form of income tax. He has already
gone TO the length of having the At
tOrney General prepare a bill provid-
ing for tax of two per cent on the
dividends Of certain corporations.
Evidently Mr.. Taft takes seriously
his pledge and that of the Republi-
can platform to revise the schedules
in the interest OF the whole people
and will see to IL that there is an
equitable readjustment in accordance
with changed conditions.

A more appropriate speech could not
have been delivered. and he was COM

1.-The advocate takes great pleasure
in laying before its readers in this
issue the eloquent and excellent ad-
dress delivered by Hon. Harvey Helm,
Congressman from this district, We'd
nesday afternoon in connection with
the ceremonies incident to laying the cor
ner-stone of the Government building
in this city. the appropriation for which
he has been largely instrumental in OBJ
tanning. Without invidious distinction
or in any wise detracting from the
merits of others delivered on the same
occasion. it can be truthfully said that
il will compare favorably with any ever
before delivered anywhere by anybody
at any time, and all those not fortunate
enough to hear it upon perusal will bear
out this assertion. Congressman Helm
has not only developed into an orator
of great ability, but has, during his
term in the House, proven himself an
intelligent, faithful and conscientious
worker for the best interest of his con-
stituents. and should, and doubtless
will receive the plaudit of (well done,
