Democrats Will Revise Tariff.

Washington, D. O., Feb. 23.-If an
extra session Of Congress is called
following the adjournment of the
present session March next, the
Democrats of the House will set about
at once to revise several schedules of
the Payne-Aldrich tariff act.
An authoritative statement to this
effect was given out by Representa-
tive Underwood, Of Alabama, who al
ready has been selected as the chair
man of the new committee on Ways
and Means. 1t was made to correct
an erroneous report which has gained
circulation during the past few days.
Mr. Underwood said:
''The statement that if an extra ses-
sion is called the Democrats in the
House will not begin the work of re
vising the tariff is absolutely unfound-
ed. The Democrats are pledged to
revise the tariff. and if we go into an
extra session the House unquestion-
ably will pass some tariff bills revis-
ing some of sthe schedules of the
Payne act downward before it ad
journs.''

THREE BILLS
ARE PASSED
HOUSE RAPIDLY COMPLETING ITS
WORK. NAVY GETS $780,
100000
BATTLESHIPS PROVIDED

Washington, D. c., Feb. 23.-The
House of Representatives is rapidly
clearing it's calendar so that no re-
enonsibility for what now appears to
he an inevitable extra session can be
charged to the lower branch Of Con-
oress. Yesterday three big appropria-
tion bills, carrying in the aggregate
s135 .0Ou, 900, we're passed. Of those
the Naval Act carried $125, 100000,
the Notifications bill $5,3OO,OOO, and
the diplomatic and consular bill
about $4,100,000.
The House now has only three more
s1pply bills to pass-the sundry civil
bill, the general deficiency and the
military academy The latter proba
5ly viii not occupy more than few
hours. So the chances are that the
House will be marking time. 1iten
Marcr 4th arrives.
The naval bill having been APPROX
ed in committee of the whole Tues
day night, was quickly disposed of
Yesterday. A motion to recommit and
cut down the building program from
two battleships to one was lost.
The Notifications bill provides for
the coast defenses Of the United
but does not include sthe item for the
fortifcation of the Panama canal,
which viii be reported with the
other canal appropriations in the
sundry civil bill.
The diplomatic and consular bill
occasioned some discussion and Rep
resentative Harrison, of New York,
succeeded in striking out number
of its provisions on point of order.
These had to do with participation in
various international conferences
Among the provisions dropped
from the bill, but which may be re
instated by the Senate, we're the fol
lowing:
Subscription of $4,000 to the inter
national prison commission; participa-
ton in the International Seismo
graphic Association; contribution OF
$4,000 to the Bureau of the Interpar
liamentary Union for the promotion
of international arbitration and parti
cipation in the adjourned meeting at
The Hague of the International Con
ference to promote uniform 1egisla
ton concerning letters of exchange.

japan Treaty May Not Pass.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 23.-The
new japanese treaty, unexpectedly
sent to the Senate late Tuesday af er-
noon by President Taft, has small
prospect Of being accepted by Con
gress. The paper contains no provi,
sions giving the United States the
right 10 restrict japanese immigra-
tion, and this one omission damns it
in the eyes of the Pacific Coast Sena-
tors, who will undoubtedly prevent
it's acceptance.
Outside Of the Foreign Relations
Committee none knew of the imme-
diate pendency of this treaty, and
Senators representing constituencies
affected by the immigration question
were only able today, after study of
it, to discuss it's provisions.
The new treaty is substitute for
that of 1894, which became operative
in 1899, and which, under it's terms,
is to expire at the end of a twelve
year period.
The essential difference between
the proposed and the existing treaty
is said to be the fact that it omits all
reference to immigration restrictions
asd leaves to the national honor OF
Japan the enforcement at her own
ports OF the limitations upon emigra
| ton from Japan now expressly placed
upon immigration into the United
States This has virtually been the
situation for the past two years by
mutual understanding between the
! two nations.
When the negotiations leading VI
to this treaty attracted attention 6
| few weeks ago several Senators con
versant with the transaction sale
privately that official notes would be
| passed accompanying the treaty BY
way of interpreta ton, and that these
notes would specifically state that the
status quo of the immigration ques
| ion would not be changed

IS ALARMED
NEWLY SUBMITTED JAPANESE
TREATY SENT TO SENATE BY
TAFT CAUSES PROTEST
WANT IT WITHDRAWN

Sacramento, Cal, Feb. pa reso-
luton was introduced in the State
Senate yesterday calling upon Presi-
dent Taft to withdraw the new Ja-
panese treaty, appealing to the
United States Senate to refuse its
assent and instructing the California
delegation to oppose ratification.
The resolution which was present
ed by Senator Caminetti, says that
''the Senate of the State of Califor-
MIA, relying on the good faith upon
assurance from official sources given
to the people of the State during the
last four years that the immigration
to the United States of such 1aborers
was precluded by a mutual agree
ment' between our government and
that Of Japan, and that the latter ma
ton was as anxious to retain as we
were to exclude them, patriotically
and patiently observed calmness
pending negotiations for new treaty
that.
The Wilson times. [volume] (Wilson, N.C.) 1896-19??, 1911-02-24
The Resolution.

Whereas, our people have been led
20 believe and hope that there would
be no surrender of our rights in the
premises, and,
Whereas, it further appears that
even he protective features relating
to Immigration matters of the pres
ent treaty with Japan are omitted
in the new draft;
''Therefore, be it resolved, That the
Senate Of the State of California
earnestly urges the President of the
United States to withdraw said treaty
from further consideration by the
Senate of the United States, and,
"Be il further resolved, Tha- we
appeal to the Senate of the United
States TO withhold and refuse It's as
sent TO a compact fraught with sc
much danger to our citizens, to ou1
| Industrial development and to oul
! civiliZatlon.''

in this wonderful midsummer cruise
to the greatest regatta and races ey
er undertaken in the west, and among
the greatest ever held anywhere in
the whole world.
The western waterways are pecu-
liarly we'll adapted for a cruise of
this kind. All the streams are navi
gable, government markings and the
absence OF storms strips the trip of
all danger. These rivers are dotted
with towns and villages where pro
visions, fuel and accommodations are
available. The country through which
the boats will pass is the most beauti-
full in America. Cruising in great
body as this fleet will, engine trouble
need not bother, for tow line is al
ways handy. Navigation will be rem
dered easy, for as each city adds its
contribution of boats, these will guide
the way through the wide channels
with which their owners are perfect
/ " at home.
During the cruise the slower boats
will lash together and cruise along
leisurely, all motors running and one
steering, while their occupants visit
back and forth. Some of the faster
ones will run ahead and drop anchor
at the fishing grounds or loiter in the
cities while the others come np
Beautiful cities and villages are only
a few miles apart and camping sites
and sandy beaches are innumerable
Many of the cruising parties will
camp along the way, while others will
I pass the nights at the cities, where
hotel accommodations are accessible
Plans for the cruise have been
worked out Systematically and elao-
orately. Leading newspapers of the
west and many of the magazines will
have representatives with the fleets
and the movements of this great gath
ering of power craft will be telegraph
ed broadcast to all sections of the
country.
