:Bv Morning journal specini Leased Wire. ]
NV York, May 1.-THE face OF
general advantage worn by the tarltf
scheme is a mask and many private
iests grin behind it," declared Wood
row Wilson, of New Jersey, in an ad-
dress tonight on The Tariff Makes
Believe" at a dinner of the Reform
club, where he and other speakers,
including Senator Thomas p. Gore, of
oklahoma, former Assistant united
States Treasurer Charles s. Hamlin
and Congressman Henry George, Jr.,
united in holding the tariff issue up
as chief among all issues of the present
campaign.
THE top-heavy, lop-sided. nnsym-
metrical, bulk of American Industrial
enterprise is plain to be seen by every
one said Governor Wilson. after de-
claring that the protective tariff was
conceived in day of individual en-
terprises of every kind whereas to-
day the whole scene had changed in
to one of "monstroslties of develop
ment" and laws that were meant to
st mulate everybody are now plainly
seen to rebound to the advantage OF
a smaller and smaller number of per-
sons in whose hands the larger masses
of capital have steadily accumulated"
The governor favored dispassionate
dealing with the tariff question and
advised against ANY changes so dras-
tic or so rapid as to endanger the
very fibre of our industrial system"

BITTER STRUGGLE
FOR DELEGATES IN
WASHINGTON
Predictions Made That Separ-

by Taft and Roosevelt Fac
tions; BaIIinger in Fight,

IBy Morning Journal Special Leased Wire. !
Seattle, Wash, May 1.-THE Pierce
and Skagit county republican conven-
tions were held today and the remain
ing convention, that of Lewis county,
will be held on Monday. The Pierce
county convention at Tacoma split
into Roosevelt and Taft factions and
selected opposing delegations to the
state convention. The Skagit county
convention at Sedro- Wooley, adopted
resolutions instructing the countys'
nineteen delegates to vote for Taft. 1t
is conceded that the Lewis county
delegates will be instructed for Taft.
Ii is now possible to give figures for
the whole state. OF the uncontested
delegates, 235 have been instructed or
have expressed preference for Roose-
welt and 100 have been instructed or
have expressed a preference for Taft.
La Toilette has one Lncontested dele
gate. Two hundred and forty-one seats
in the state convention are contested.
The state central committee which
will meet at Aberdeen on Tuesday, the
day before the state convention, to
make up the temporary roll of dele
gates is friendly to Taft and is ex-
pected to favor him in every reason
able way, but it is thought not likely
that it will give credentials to the So
called hand picked" delegates of 121
from King county. headed by eX-Sec-
retafy of the Interior Richard A. Bal
ex-United States Senator Lew
ison and State Senator Samuel III.
for that would cause an ire
parable breach in the party in the
county of the strte.
Leaders of both Roosevelt and Taft
factions declared they will make no
and that two conventions
will be held. 1t is known. however.
that peace negotiations have been
pending for several days and that the
Taft leaders have agreed to take half
Of the delegates and give Roosevelt the
other half after giving LaFollette two.
