new TARIFF
MEASURE IS
NOW LAW
Brief Summary of Bill which
has Kept, Congress Busy
all Summer

President Woodrow Wilson
signed the tariff revision bill at
nine last night and it is now a
law of these great United States.
1t is quite evident that Woodrow
is going to stand by the democra-
tic party program and is to be
admired for sticking by the old
ship whether his doing so mean
going to the bottom of the briny
deep blue sea of oblivion or not.
Wilson is our president and while
he is in Office, is entitled to our
support. While certain portions
of the new law do not take effect
at once, most of it's provisions
and almost all the direct tariff re-
ductions do.

The latest good roads idea is
furnished by Congressman H. B.
Ferguson, who in House Bill
No. 1859, asks a grant of public
lands for a number Of the west
ern states the proceeds from
which will be used to construct,
repair and maintain public high
ways. The bill has been referred
to the committee on publicl ands.
The text Of the proposed measure
is as follows:
Be it enacted by the Senate
and House Of Representatives of
the United States of America in
Congress assembled, That there
is hereby granted and conveyed

Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New
Mexico, Nevada, Utah and Wyo-

and direction Of the state land
board of each state that has such
a board, and under the authority
and direction Of the governors of
the states which have no land

year after the passage of this act,
and may be designated and Sc

Income Tax Feature


The income tax probably will
bring the new tariff law most
forcibly to the attention Of citi-
zens. President Wilson and the
democratic leaders in congress
believe, however, that the re-
duction of duties on clothing,
foodstuffs and other necessaries
Of life, and the complete removal
of the duty from many like arti-
cles, will eventually bring re-
duction in the "cost of living"
without materially affecting bust
ness prosperity.
