THE SENATE
farmers FREE LIST BILL GOT
THROUGH TUESDAY BY
CLEVER COMBINE.
Democratic Tariff Program Moves Clos
er to President Taft by Coalition
With msurgents-Foes Dub 1t I'm
holy Alliance Had Been Passed by
House-Goes to Conference

Washington.-The democratic tariff
program was moved up closer to Presi-
dent Taft when the senate, by another
remarkable coalition of democrats and
republican insurgents, passed a farm
ers free list bill, after voting down the
original house measure so closely that
one more democratic senator would
have changed the result and left the
entire revision issue squarely before
the president tonight.
"The unholy alliance as the com
bination of the republican wing and
the democratic party has been called,
swept aside host of amendments, vot-
ed down by a tie vote the original
house measure, and then carried, by a
surprising concentration of strength, a
measure differing from the house bill
only in comparatively unimportant par
ticulars.
Now the bill goes back to the house
and Democratic Leader Underwood of
that body confidently asserted that it
would be finally agreed to in confer
ence between the two houses and sent
to President Taft.
1t is not certain the house will in
sist on a conference, for many demo-
Gratis, believing that the bill has not
been materially changed, are urging
that the house accept the senate bill
without controversy, and rush the first
of the tariff measures up to the presi-
dent.
The house free list bill was beaten on
tie vote of 80 to 3d. was then recon
sidered, changed by a compromise
amendment offered by Senator Kern of
Indiana and passed as amended by a
vote of 4s to 30.
Originally, the bill provided that
meat products, flour and cereal pro
duets from all countries should be ad
mitted free into the United States.
The Kern amendment provides that
this free admission shall apply only tC
meats, -four and cereal products com
ing from any foreign country will
which the United States has reel
procity trade agreements, and which
shall admit from the United States free
of duty, cotton, corn, wheat, oats, hors
es, cattle and hogs.
1t is admitted that this provision ap
plies only to Canada, after the new
reciprocity agreement shall have be
come effective.
Senator Bailey, Senator Clapp ant
other insurgents, who voted for tn
free list bill after the Kern compromis
amendment had been adopted, declare,
that the amendment accomplishes wha
they tried to effect by amendments t,
the reciprocity bill. 1t admits tn
manufactured articles made from farm
products free from Canada, an en'
{ which the insurgents repeatedly trie'
to gain in the reciprocity fight.
