quietly do to prevent revision will be

1t will thus be seen that the situation
in congress is about as bad as it could
possibly be. Evidently the president
believes that the democratic house of
representatives and the republican
senate can and will agree on some
measure Of revision. In this view. IL it
by many public men.
The general run Of comment among
the senator's and representatives who
have come back to the national capital
is that congress will fail to agree on
revision legislation and that the tariff
will be one of the chief Issues In the
presidential campaign, with the demo-
Gratis blaming republican senate for
not accepting house revision bills. and

could accept.
President Taft has a plan to bring
forward the subject Of high cost of liv-
ing for consideration along with the
tariff. Some Of the statesmen are al
ready saying that II the president is
wise, and they think he is. he can use
the cost of living issue as an effective
club in forcing action on the tariff by
an unruly republican senate. Intima-
tons have been made that the report
Of the tariff board on both the wooden
and the cotton Industries will touch
on the cost of living. II current report
be true, investigation made by the
board tend to show, II they do not
show concluaively. that the middleman
is largely responsible for high prices
the ultimate consumer has to pay for
the products Of the wooden and cotton
factories.
