WILSON DECLARES
TARIFF LOBBYISTS
OvERRUN CAPITAL
President Laments Fact That
Common People Have No
Agents There to Combat
Powers of Privilege.

Washington, May 2T.-Prasident VIII,
son told the White House correspon-
dents that he believed the most eStra-
ordinary lobby ever gathered by special
interests to overcome legislation was
now mustered at the capitol against
the tariff bill.
The president said he had no doubt
that a few soacalled lobbyists We're
there on legitimate errands, but that
the great majority We're occupied IN a
systematic misrepresentation of facts.
While the president believes that the
lobby opposition is concentrated
against free sugar and Tree WOOL. he is
not apprehensive that it will be sue
c~essful.
h president made it clear that he
believed scientific business methods and
efficiency would overcome tariff cuts
and with the application of scientific
methods Louisiana would not only be
able to continue in the sugar industry,
but to do so profitablY.
Statement BY President.
The president later issued the fol-
lowing statement:
II think that the public ought to
know the extraordinary exertions being
lS1bS y ~ III W Nshoh " ~
gain recognition for certain alterations
of the tariff bill. Washington has sell
dom seen so numerous. SO industrious
or so insidious a lobby. The newSpa-
pers are being filled with paid adver-
tisements calculated to mislead the
judgment of public men, not only. but
also the public opinion of the country
itself. There is every evidence that
money without limit is being spent to
sustain this lobby and to create an APP
pearance of a pressure of public opin-
ion antagonistic to some of the chief
tins of the tariff bill.
1T is of serious interest to the coun-
try that the country at large shoul
have no lobby and be voiceless in these
matters. while great bodies of astute
men seek to create an artificial opin-
ion and to overcome the interests OF
the public for their private profit. 1t is
thoroughly worth the while of the peo-
pie of this country to take knowledge
of this matter. Only public opinion car
check and destroy it.

first cutting was made April 30. The
tnoculated tract produced 1.68 tons per
acre and the uninoculated AS tons per
acre. On June ID second cutting
was made. The ipoculated produced
1.19 tons per acre and the uninocu-

cutting was made on July II when
1.80 tons per acre was cut on the
inoculated and ~ of ton on the
unfnoculated. On August 20, the
fourth cutting was made, the inoculat-
ed part yielding 1.45 tons per acre
and the uninoculated 80 of ton per
