Practically the entire line of last

down center, Enoch Friedley is back

pected back to take care of the other
end position However OTIS Hamp-

1t is the back field that is most bad
ly shattered. With Hinderman, Fin
nell and Houser gone, the coach is
having a problem to fill their boots.
Jordan is a fixture at either half or

the snapper-back position. 1t is

places filled with new recruits,
Altogether, though Coach Asbahr

in the bill which are entirely unsatis-
factory to me and there are others, |
am sure which are equally as unsatis
factory to other members of the SEN
ate. as well as to individual members
of the house of representatives; but
in order to enact a tariff bill revising
duties downward, in compliance with
promises which have been made by
all parties in national platforms 1t
was necessary that each and every
member of congress should approach
the subject with a disposition to yield
his views on a few matters of local
Importance in order that a bill gen
eral in its nature might be enacted
into law.
Applying the bill to the northwest,
and to Oregon in particular, small
number of products have been placed
on the free list which heretofore car
rled quite a heavy duty, notably, wool
and lumber Lumber which carried
a duty of $125 per thousand feet,
board measure. will be placed by the
present bill on the free list 1t was
claimed in 1909 by the advocates OF
a high rate of duty on lumber. that
the reduction of the present rates
would destroy the lumber industry in
the northwest, but after a trial of four
years it has been found that no such
result has followed the reduction in
the old rate on the contrary, speak
/ ing enerally. the lumber business has
been better under the reduced rates
/ than it was under the former higher
rate
An examination will disclose gener-
! ally that exports Of lumber in its vari-
our forms increased in the aggregate
/ during the years 1910 and 1912, while
/ the imports decreased quite materi-
ally. The result has been that thi.
! year. except in very few instances
.here has been no protest filed from
the lumbermen of the northwest
against the placing of lumber on the
free list. So far as the lumber busl.
rtess is concerned it has not been de-
pendent on a protective duty for lis
