suits Of its practical operation, Re-
preventative Boutell, OF Illinois, a
member of the committee which franz

Tense OF the law today.
President Taft had been criticised
he said. because he had declared ne
Payne act was the best tariff Law ever
passed by congress. But, he added,
the result would justify that state
ment.
The common sense and sagacity
of President TAFT will be recognized
by his reelection in 1912.
1T has been said" continued Mr..
Bouteil, that that act gives privi-
lege to certain individuals and Is the
cause of the present high prices. II
has been claimed that the tariff act
has not brought prosperity and that

When the Democrats applauded
these statements and laughed in de-
risor, Mr.. Bouteil sharply rebaked
them.
Why is IT," he asked. that the
Democrats always applaud any tale OF
misfortune or prediction OF sdyersi-
ty?"
1t was then the turn OF the Replb-
leans to laugh and applaud and the
Democrats iapsed into silence.
