grave and fraught with mighty respon
sibilities; indeed at this time above
all others, the statement of Mr.. Bryan
that he proposed to desert his office
for the purpose of personal financial
gain comes as shock to all thought
full people.
This action is even more inexcus-
able when it is known that the secre-
tary has been in office but few
months and from the nature Of things
he cannot have become familiar with
all of the responsibilities Of his great
position.
"If he has resigned as secretary,
giving as his reason that he could not
live on his salary and by inference
that he owed a higher duty to his
desire for wealth than he did to pub
lie service, there would have been
less reason for public complaint, but
to hold office and draw the full sal
airy for only part Of the time he
rendered service is in my judgment
improper and inexcusahle."

dren BY the amendment the lowest
( possible exemption to any one person
lis $4,000"
Vi agricultural products, many OF
which were transferred to the free
list, in addition to hose put there
by the house, the committee has this
TO say
The house bill and amendments
made by the committee on finance
placed agricultural implements Of
every kind and description, fence
and bailing wire, cotton begging and
ties, blankets, boots and shoes, ce.
ment, nails, lumber, coal, harness,
caddles, cotton gins, wagons, carts,
bagging for grain, woei anc other
bags, sewing machines and many
other articles OF daily utility on the
free list. In common with the rest
OF our people, our agricultural popu-
lation will share in the benefit
brought about by the reduction of
the duties on Sugar and its eventual
elimination The substantial reduc-
tions made ali along the line on cot
ton and wooden goods, wearing ap-
parel Of every description, on crock
cry, household furnishings and uten-
sils, hardware, and similar products
of our factories will remove a con-
siderable part of the burden of tariff
taxation now borne by the farmer as
well as the dweller in the city and
the laborer in the factory, field and
mines"
Sweeping reductions In the meral
schedule are treated in the report
with considerable comment. Pig iron,
ferromanganese and other products
were placed on the free list by the
committee, and the report says:
"The house bill places iron ore
upon the free list, mainly because it
was found that the domestic supply
of iron ore was largely controlled by
the United States steel corporation
and for the purpose Of aiding the in
dependent iron and steel manufac
turers in their competition with this
monopoly"
