THE GREAT MAN
OF THE TARIFF DEBATE

No man on either side has ap-
peared more effectively In the long
and weary tariff debate in the Sen
ate than John Sharp Williams Of
Mississippi, and his clear, simple
and convincing way of putting
things and lighting up a dull sub
ject with humor as well as logic
have sustained and increased his
reputation as one Of the strongest
debaters in Congress. He is real
statesman and Mississippi has hon
ored herself in honoring him. His
personality is SO interesting, especi-
ally just now, that we cannot re-
frain from giving our readers real
pleasure in reproducing what Savo-
yard, the veteran Washington corre-
spondent, says about him in re-
cent letter:
"The discussions of the tariff the
present session are not at all en-
livening, though they have afforded
John Sharp Williams opportunity to
again discover to the country that
in the arena Of political debate in
the American Congress, like Eclipse
among horses, he is first and the
rest nowhere among senators. Mis-
sissippi is proud Of him. I make no
doubt. In debate John Sharp WILL
liams is more like Allen G. Thur
mantle old Roman'-than any
body else, and he is as able and as
formidable as Thurman himself.
There is a simplicity, clearness, a
lucidity, strength, a force in his
arguments that sweep away all op-
position. What pity 1t Is that all
America, especially Mississippi, was
not there July Is to hear John
Sharp Williams explain the wage
question, triumphantly divorcing the
thing from the tariff. He utterly
COMPOUNDED the Hon. Smoot, the
high priest Of high protection and
tariff monopoly.
''Now John Sharp is no orator. I
think it pity that he Is not the
possessor Of Alden Smiths lungs, Of
Joe Bailey's physical corporosity, Of
Oscar Underwood's sedate poise, Of
Gus Bacon's dignity; but In politi-
cal debate he is the master of them
all. There is absolutely no non
sense about John Sharp. He is a
bundle Of common sense and lucid
ity. So clear Is his statement that
every man of ordinary intelligence
can follow his reasoning. and he can
say more In 100 words than the
average senator can in 1000. There
IL his strength. He never flies ex-
cept at the throat. He seizes it
with the grip Of giant and when
he sits down the subject Is exhaust
ed. He never bores the Senate, for
he never rises to discuss a thing he
does not know all about. When he
gets up every Democrat is hopefully
expectant, and all the opposition
grip their chairs, for they know a
shock is coming, which it certain
.ly is.
John Sharp is a scholar and a
student. Nearly all the reading
worth the having, is at his instant
command. He reads and speaks sew
eral tongues. How l envy him his
French? He has as keen, as delic-
1ous q sense Of humor as Proctor
Knott. or George Vest. or Zeb Vance,
and can relate an anecdote with the
best Of them. Unfortunately his
physical frame Is not robust and his
physical health is sometimes deli
