following:
why did you vote to admit raw
silk free and only place a duty of
SO per cent on the manufactured
article. at the same time placing a
duty of 1875 per cent on wooden or
worsted cloths valued at more
than 40 cents a pound? Was it
because silk is used by the greatest
number o: cons titucnts and woolens
and worsteds only by a few?
Why did you vote to tax cham
payne from 81 to &c per cent and
wearing apparel at so to % per
cent? Was it to encourage your
constituents to drink champagne
and to discourage them from wear
ing wooden clothes?
Why did you vote to tax hats
bringing not over $3.50 per dozen
at II per cent, and those valued
at more than S4S per dozen only

was this done your poor or rich

tons by the congressman are not

The major portion of the tribe is
harvesting pine nuts. They will
have mighty little use for flour
through the winter because the
nuts furnish an inexpensive sub

dating the memory of the oldest
