DEBATE IS OPENED

Washington, Jan. 26.-The tariff re-
vision fight opened in the house coday
when consideration of the metal tariff
bill was taken up as the first of the
democratic leaders will at
tempt to force through congress. At
tackled by the republican side as a de-
parturc from democratic pledges. and
as likely to be destructive to American
labor and industry. the bill went
through five hours of stormy debate
which will be resumed tomorrow.
Replying to charges hat no demo-
Gratis abandoned the farmer by not
putting agricultural machinery on the
free list in the bill. Chairman Under
wood of the ways and means commit
tee retorted it was not a part of the
metal schedules of the tariff.
Representative Dalzell Of Pennsyl-
vania. representing the republican mi
nority of the ways and means COM
mittee. demanded of the democrats
why they had not first introduced the
wool revision bill. Teh metal sched-
ule, he said. was cut to the bone in
the Payne-Aldrich law of 1909: while
the democrats had declared that the
wool tariff was the most unreasonable
of all in tariff code of the country.
A crowded house listened for two
hours to the opening speech of Repre-
sentative Palmer Of Pennsylvania, who
explained the bill on behalf of the ma
jority members of the ways and means
committee. Palmer said the measure
would stimulate competition by per-
hitting a slight increase in imports
of metal products and thereby some
what lower prices. He denied it
would have any affect on wages. or
upon established industries in the
United States.
Representative Hill Of Connecticut
said placing typewriters. linotype ma
chimes, cash registers and other pat
ented articles on the free list. as pro-
posed in the bill. would result in the
removal Of American plants to for.
eigners whose goods could be made
cheaper while patents would prevent
any reduction in the selling price in
the American market. Palmer assert
ed that it would not be such an out
come.
The debate was limited to speeches
for the bill by Palmer, Bartlett. (Geor-
gia) and Underwood. and speeches
against 1t by Dalzell. Crumpacker (In.
diana and Austin (Tennessee).

displays hat rare virtue of a pulsat-

Measures Will Not Receive

All doubt that President Taft will
veto the various tariff bills has been
settled.
The President has told some of his
callers that he intends to veto the wool
bill. He Is also prepared to veto the
cotton bill, the steel bill, and the ex-
else bill.
The President will take the position
the wool and cotton bills are not in ac-
cord with the findings of the tariff
board; that the tariff board has not in
restisated steel at all; and that the
excise bill Is not needed.
Actual preparation of the veto mess

been begun at the White House.

No Greater Issue
Than Conservation.

There can be no greater issue than
that Of conservation In this country.
Just as we must conserve our men,
women, and children. so we must con-
serve the resources Of the land on which
they live. We must conserve the soil
SO that our children shall have a land
that is more and not less fertile than
that our fathers dwelt in.
We must conserve the forests. not by
disuse, but by use. making them more
valuable at the same time that we use
them. We must conserve the mines.
Moreover, we must insure SO far as pos
sible the use of certain types of great
natural resources for the benefit of the
people as a whole. The public should
not ALLEVIATE its fee in the water power
which will be of incalculable conse-
quence as source Of power in the i'm
mediate future.
The nation and the States within their
several spheres should by immediate
legislation keep the fee Of the water
power, leasing It's use only for a reason
able length Of time on terms that will
secure the interests Of the public. 49,,
Just as the nation has gone into the
work Of irrigation in the West, SO 1t
should go into the work of helping re-
claim the swamp lands of the South.
We should undertake the complete de-
velopment and control of the Mississippi
as a National work, just as we have
undertaken the work of building the
Panama Canal. We can use the plant,

Central Labor Union Adopts
Resolution Favoring New
Jersey Congressman.

The Central Labor Union adopted last
night resolution indorsing Congress-
man William Hughes Of New Jersey for
United States Senator to succeed Sem
ator Frank Briggs, and appointed q
committee to send copies of the resolu-
ton to every local union in the State
Of New Jersey.
This resolution was proposed week
ago, and was then referred to the
American Federation of Labor for its
approval. Endorsements Of this nature
are not made until the highest authority
in unionism has approved them. No
fault was found with the Hughes reso-
luton, and 1t was returned to be
passed. The local central body will set
forth In its communication the various
things that Congressman Hughes has
accomplished for union labor since he
has been in Congress.
Opposition to the compensation act,
and desire to make plate printers do
menial work that tends to degrade their
trade were chargd against Director
Joseph Ralph, Of the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing. by P. ]. Ryan.
The plate printers. according to Mr..
Ryan, are required to do many things
for which subordinates are employed in
other than Government Offices.
ID. j. O'Leary, of the local firemen' q
union, took up the cudgels in defense
OF Ralph, and called attention to sew
eral improvements which have been
made In the conditions under which
firemen work, stating that these
changes were due to Director RaIph' q

been raised 81 cents a day. they are
paid for Sunday, provided with towels,
soap, oatmeal water. and have other
little conveniences for which they
