WILL END TARIFF BOARD
Democrats in House Not to Pro-
vide Money for It.
LFrom The Tribune Rureau.

| Washington March 2i-The Democratic
| leaders of the House have definitely de-
| cided that the Tariff Board shall be abol-
| ished at the end OF the present fiscal year.
| The sundry civil bill. now I'm course Of
preparation will contain no appropriation
for its maintenance. and II Is understood
that the initial thrust at the board will he
taken when the majority members OF the
Ways and Means Committee make a for
nal report on the wool bill. Caustic critl-
cism OF the work of the board is expected
since individual Democratic members or
the committee have not hcsitated TO assert
their Independence Of the boards findings
and lack Of faith In its usefulness.
Notwithstanding the vast amount Of
data gathered by the Tariff Board on the
woollen industry. no attention whatever
was given to the boards report when the
Democrats framed the wool bill The
board has prepared n report on the cotton
industry, and this is now in the hands Of
the President. but Ms report. too, repre-
sents energy wasted. The Democrats of
the House have signifed their intention
not TO bring In cotton bill at this session.
For some time the Democrats have grad
ually grown more inimcal to the con-
tinuance OF the Tariff Board There have
been yelled threats that the board must
60. A decision has now been reached
however. and the board Is doomed
The Democrats will excuse their action
on the theory that n body gathering infor-
nation to he used in revising the tariff
should report to Congress instead Of to
the President. a tentative promise is made
TO create another body to supplant the
present board. this new organization 10 be
responsive only TO the wishes OF the ma
jority OF the Ways and Means Committee
and to report only 10 them. Bills providing
for q substitute board have been introduced
by Representatives Palmer and Peters. ma
jority members OF the Ways and Means
Committee.
The Tarin Board is already crippled for
lack of funds and has less than $4,000
with which TO continue its Investigations
until the end of the fiscal year II is real
lied. however, that 1t would be futile to
apply TO the Appropriations Committee OF
the House for a deficiency appropriation.
since that committee has determined to
make no provision whatever for the
boards continuance when the sundry civil
budget is prepared.

Dixon's Loss Of Montana.

Tho failure of Senator Dixon to bring
his own state into line for Roosevelt Is
pointed at by the Taft bureau in a state
nent made to-day analyzing the Repubh-
can situation in Montana. The statement
follows:
Senator Joseph NJ. Dixon of Montana,
chairman OF the national Roosevelt execu-
tive committee, suffered crushing defeat
in his own home state late saturday night,
when the state committee, composed or one
member from each county In the state. a:
a meeting at Helena, Endorsed the TAFT ad-
ministratlon and President Taft for re-
nomination by vote Of % to 10. The state
committee Of Montana Is chosen By the
delegates TO the county conventions, which
are. in turn chosen by a primary vote.
According To the information received at
the national Tatt bureau TO-DAY, several
the Presidents indorsement out OF regard
for Senator DiKons official position In the
Roosevelt camp, while al the same ume an-
hitting that they were not rejecting the
actual sentiment in their counties by so
doing.
Montana merely reflects the actual sent-
ment among the voters OF the state as 1t
has been known to exist TO the Tart mana
gers for some time. There never has been
any question but that Montana's eight
votes in the Republican National Conven-
ton would he cast for the nomination OF
President Taft.
Asserting that the campaign for the Re-
nublican Presidential nomination should be
fought on principles and policies and not
or personalities and mud singing" Sec
rotary of War Stimson last night urged the
members of the National Republican Club
NJ the District to renewed efforts.
II occupy peculiar position in regard
10 both the great Republicans who are can
didates for the nomination" said Secretary
Stimson, who was vigorously supported by
Colonel Roosevelt when he was a candidate
for Governor of New York and who is now
supporting President TAFT.
Il have no doubt which man will receive
the nomination." he continued, amid much
applause. but have no sympathy with
any attacks that may be made upon the
other. Let US have clean, decent fight,
without descending to personalities.
