the cost OF living, forced down the
standard of living. and is the most op-
pressive and burdensome tariff act
ever enacted.

the house, protested against taking
up the resolution today, threatening
10 take up the greater part of the
day II. it was put on passage. The
Democrats esented Jones threat. 10

toward the door breaking all speed
