SENATE MAKES
MANY CHANGES
IN TARIFF BILL
Senate Finance Sub-Com-
n1ittee Recommends the
Elimination of the Anti
Dumping Clause, the OBJ
lection Being That it is
Discriminating.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, June 10-Important
changes in the administrative features
of the Underwood tariff bill are likely
to be made before the bill reaches the
senate for debate. The senate finance
sub committee in charge of the anti
dumping clause today recommended
its elimination. This clause would
exact additional duties on imports sold
in the United States at less than the
foreign market price. 1t did not cover
the free listed articles and the senate
leaders objected to it discrimina-
tory This recommendation will come
up before the majority members of the
finance committee with an recommen-
dation that il eliminate the discount
on goods imported in American bot
toms.
Another provision certain Of modi1-
cation is the one requiring foreign
to submit their books
in valuation disputes, which caused
protests. The majority members to-
day ratified the changes in the chemi
cal and lumber schedules which ma
terially enlarge the free list. The ag-

The jokes he told were very ancient
but the people there had never heard
them before. so they were also very
funny The crowds grew and even the
two saloons closed, SO that their owriers
could attend the services. One of the
saloonkeepers, John Sheperd, always

preacher finally left, declaring the town

HITCHCOCK AND PENSIONS.

Among other things in the report of Post
master General Hitchcock, which has just been
submitted, is the recommendation for a civil
service pension. Mr.. Hitchcock, in his four
years. experience at the head of the post
Office department, has come to realize the nee
essity as well as the justice of a pension sys-
TEN. He knows that the leading corporations
of the country which, as a rule, pay much
higher wages than the government, are TAX
ing steps to protect their employees and retire
them at a suitable age upon an adequate pen
sion. Because of this discrimination the gov
men, who prefer the corporation service to
eminent is losing the service of high class
Uncle Sam largely because of the protection
in later life. The postmaster general sees
his department. filled with aged employees who
should be succeeded by younger men more
capable of carrying on the work.
Congress must sooner or later take notice
of the demand made for q pension system in
the civil service, as we'll as in the army and
navy. The United States is the richest gov
eminent in the world, yet in caring for its
employees it is far behind many of the countries
less able to pay than w are.

.JANIToRs AND STREET sPRINKLING.

Mayor Garretson's veto of the proposed
extra pay for ~janitors on duty at firehouses
while engaged in sprinkling the streets, and
his comment on the matter, are to be com
mended. There is no doubt that the streets
were sadly neglected, as far as sprinkling was
concerned, last summer and the firehouse JAM
tors who accepted their positions with the
distinct understanding that they were to
sprinkle the streets, assumed the attitude Of
"what are you going to do about it?'
Whether or not the j-a5tssrs>.s = receiving
-snth@!n@f Pay Tor the work required of them
is not the question at issue. The fact is that
they did not do the work last summer that
they were supposed to do, and which they
knew it was their duty to do. This being
true, it is rather presum ptuous to ask for
more. pay at this time. Let them do their
work faithfully and if such work is worthy
of an increase in wages the aldermen should
give it to them. Mayor Garretson has sug-
gested a good way in which this can be done,
Let the public first see the men deserving Of
the increase they ask for.

RAILROADS HAD TO YIELD.

The agreement on the part of the railroads
to arbitrate their present differences with the
locomotive fremen under the Erdman act was
the only possible outcome of the difficulty.
The Erdman act is established by law as the
means for bringing employers and their en-
ployes together at such times as the present.
The firemen knew that they had the law with
them when they insisted upon arbitration
under this act and, naturally, as we have
stated before, the side which enlists public
sympathy is bound to win.
In this case there is no doubt that the popu-
lar feeling was with the firemen as long as
they were willing to arbitrate under the only
out for a different method as long as they
dared, but they could not help but realize
that they were on the unpopular side and
finally agreed to the proposition advanced by
the fremen.
A strike on the railroads means a great deal
more to the public than a strike in any other
industry, not even excepting the coal mines.
Because not only is the railroad itself affect
ed, but every industry, business man, as well
as the individual traveller are hit. To tie up
the railroads for even a few days would para
fyze business, close shops everywhere and
bring untold discontinue to thousands of
people. This Cannot be said about a strike in
any otheT line of business.
u is gratifying that a way has been found
10 bring the contending factions together
without disrupting the entire eastern section
of the country, as the fremen's strike would
certainly have done. Both sides must now
necessarily abide by the decision that will be
made by the Board Of Arbitration.
