Washington. April 20.-That ad va

the Democratic tariff bill are "A de-
fusion and a snare: that the radical

lions of the Republican members of
the ways and means committee in a
minority report to be presented, to-

There is no excuse for the Radical

posed by this Democratic BILL saws
the report which is signed by Repre-

Moore, Green and Anderson. The

proposing it is in power, both by the
grace of majority of the American
people, but by a division in the ranks
of the majority on other questions
han that of protection. The admins
tration has the power to enact this
Legislation. The accounting for the
abuse of that power will come later.
The report contends that the bill has
caused Intense and widespread read

the message of Democratic Governor

at is easily apparent that many OF
the duties have been placed on articles
used by our manufacturers and imported
wholly from abroad as a tax on manu-
factures,' that many duties have been
lowered so that they are much less than
the difference in the cost of labor at

The Pope. however, today, arose from

THE TARIFF FIGHT.

Washington, April 20.--Two weeks ct
tariff debate behind closed doors Will
be followed, early this week. by thC.
opening Of the real fight over The Dem
ocratic tariff bill on the floor of the
House. Backed by the favorable de-
cision of the Democratic House eau
Gus, and bearing the approval Of Pres
ident Wilson. the Underwood tariff bill
will re-appear on the floor of the Hous =
by the middle of the week, ready for
the light that is to be Waged there
over its passage.
ThG success of the measure in the
House is assured at the outset, accord
ing to the Democratic supporters of
the Bill. The party majority of over
40 is enough to carry the tariff pro-
gram through, ii is claimed, without
danger OF a change. The Republican
forces, led by members of the ways
and means committee. who aenounce
the UnderW God bill in minority re-
port made public, tonight, will agair
attempt to upset the free wool and free
sugar-in-t hree-years plans of the
President, which carried through the
Democratic caucus by a large vote. 1t
is believed, however, that the Repub
licans cannot secure enough Democrat
ic allies to threaten seriously the bill
at any point.
From the time the measure comes
back to the House. this week, tariff de-
bate is expected to rage at both ends
of the Capitol.
For at Least two weeks, the bill prob
ably viii rest in the house, while
general debate--fs INDUCED in acres-
the aisle that separates the Republican
and Democratic factions.
At the end of that time the measure
will be brought forward for detailed
reading with the opportunity of amend
ment The Republicans are preparing
now to attack many of the Democratic
reductions, and to attempt to amend the
bill and to restore some of the protective
rates which the Democrats have aban-
doned or severely modified.
The demand made by Republican sena-
tors, last week that hearings should be
allowed on the bill after it reaches the
Senate has not moved the Democratic
members of the finance committee to
change their original plans. No oral
hearings will be given. All industries
and persons likely to be affected by
the change in tariff are being given an
opportunity, however, to file further
statements with the committee, if they
have new information that was not fur
nished to the ways and mean committee,
