TARIFF REFORM HOPE OF
NATION: GOVERNOR DIX

New York, April 16.-Governor Dix,
addressing the Jefferson banquet Of
the National Democratic club Saturday
night, declared 1t was singularly ap-
propriate that the organization should
emphasize the issue Of tariff reform on
the anniversary OF the birth Of Thorn

tinued, goes back TO the days OF that
great democratic reformer, Samuel J.
Tilden, the neighbor and associate and
disciple Of Martin Van Buren,, who
perhaps more than any other states

sonal intercourse with Jefferson and
affected and controlled by his philoso-
ply OF government"

dollars. Is it possible to imagine
greater or more cruel outrage upon
the toiiers and consumers who pay
the enormous sum?
Causes economic, as we'll as
causes political, are operating to
make the tariff the paramount issue
in the pending campaign. For years
past the consuming masses have
been increasingly and justly resent
full OF the high cost of living. Various
proposed remedies have proven utter
ly without efficiency, because they
failed to address themselves to the
great central cause, which is monopoly
begotten and fostered under the pro
tecting wing of extortionate tariff
rates.
-Four years ago Mr.. Taft, then a
candidate and now president of the
United States, interpreted the evasive
language of the republican platform to
mean revision downward. The
people accepted Mr.. Taft's pledge as
tantamount to the platform of his
party, and upon his pledge they elect
ed him president and gave him a ma
jority in both houses of congress
What followed is history. A most in
iQuitous tariff law was enacted. Its
effect was not revision downward, but
he maintenance, if not the actual in
crease, of existing intolerable burdens
upon the masses.
Il speak as a manufacturer and
business man. | declare with all the
emphasis / can command, that there
is no occasion whatever for manufac.
turers, for business men, for employ.
ers or employees, to entertain the
slightest fear that they will be disad
vantageously affected by the coming
democratic revision of the tariff
ON the contrary, the manufacturer
the man of business, the employer Of
labor and the wage Garner will profit
greatly, through relief of industry
from the shackles of an unjust and ar
tihcial system which denies American
capital and labor its appropriate &C
cess to the markets of the world
which produces periodical gluts, pan
les and prostrations Of business, anC
in general is a hindrance and a dis
turbance to industrial development in
stead of being an aid to American en-

PUSH MEXICAN CLAIMS.
House Committee Asks for Settle
ment Aggregating 500, 900.

The House committee on foreign af-
fairs today decided to report the reso-
luton of Representative Smith of Texas
directing the State Department to insist
upon immediate settlement of the claims,
aggregating 5000 of American citi-
zens against Mexico for the killing and
injuring Of Americans on United Staets
soil during the Madero revolution.
Early payment of the claims is in
sisted upon by the committee and they
will urge the resolution upon Congress-
Our action today was to back up the
State Department in it's negotiations re-
lating to these claims said Representa-
tive Sulzer. The claims arise from the
firing across the border at Ell Paso and
other places along the Rio Grande during
the attack upon JuareZ.
The State Department has ordered
American Consul Edwards at JuareZ to
make a thorough investigation of the ar
rest of Powell Roberts. The department.
has not been advised as to the reasons
for his arrest, and will make no efforts
looking to his release until the consul S
report is received.
An interesting point in connection with
the case is to whom the representations
shall be made If it is found that Roberts
is illegally held. He is not held by the
federal government, but by the rebels at
Chihuahua. AS this government has not
recognized the belligerency of the rebels,
any demand to them might have little
effect, and might possibly be regarded as
q recognition Of their belligerent rights.
