L
the President and the House committee
after Louisiana cane growers declined to
accept compromise that would have
established 1 cent per pound tariff for
three years, with free sugar in 1915.
The income tax. which will transfer
indirect taxes levied through the tariff
into a direct tax upon the incomes of
individual citizens and corporations, ex-
empts all sums below $4,000. Incomes in
excess Of that amount will pay per cent
tax up to $4,000. per cent from $4,000
to $4,000. per cent from $4,000 to
100000 and per cent above that figure.
The present corporation tax. levying l
per cent on corporation incomes above
5000. would be retained as part of the
income tax.
, To encourage trade with foreign coun-
tries. the bill would reverse the maxi
mum and minimum provision of the pres
ent tariff law. The new tariff rates would
be the maximum tariff. and the President
would be given authority to negotiate
reciprocity treaties and make conces-
sions to countries that grant favors to
American exports.

"On the other hand, when the duties
levied at the custom house are high

the protection of any profit must of
necessity have tendency to destroy
competition and create monopoly.

able or unreasonable.
Which course Is the wiser one for
| our government to take-the one that
demands the protection of profits, the
continued policy Of dollhouse growth for
| our industries, the stagnation OF de-
velopment that follows where compe-
tition ceases, or, on the other hand, the
gradual reduction OF our tariff to "A
basis where the American manufacturer
| he must develop his business along the

market. he is forging the way in the
economic development of his business

To Cheaper Foodstuffs
and Promote Commerce
Aim of Tariff PROGRAM

n a statement accompanying the bill
Chairman Underwood said the measure
would, in the opinion of it's makers, re-
wise the tariff Ito basis Of legitimate
competition, such as will afford a
wholesome influence on our commerce,
bring relief to the people in the matter
of the high cost of living. and at the
same time work no detriment to prop
erly conducted manufacturing indus
tries.
In it's tariff-revision work the COM
mittee has kept in mind he said, 1.-The
distinction between the necessities and
the luxuries of life, reducing the tariff
burdens on the necessities to the low
est points commensurate with revenue
requirements, and making the luxuries
of life bear their proper portion Of the
tariff responsibilities. Many items of
manufacture controlled by monopolies
have been placed on the free list
Details of the Changes.

ing the changes in detail continues, as

OBITUARY
AUGUSTUS SCARLETT WILL

who died of old age yesterday at his
home, Sc South Eleventh street, will
take place on Monday afternoon at
2:30 o'clock from his residence. Mr..
Scarlet was born in this city eighty
one years ago and has lived here
practically all his life. He attended
a local private school in his youth
and afterwards completed his school
ing at the William Rankin Academy
in Deckertown. While there he met
the Jate Samuel A. Farrand, who in
duced him to take up teaching as his
profession. For a short time Mr..
Scarlet taught at Parslppany and
Morristown, after which he came to
Newark in 1866. He became assistant
to former Mayor Joseph e. Haynes,
who was then principal of the Morton
Street School. In 1854 Mr. Scarlet
was appointed principal of the Rose
vile School, at that time the only
public school in the Roseville sec
ton, which school later became the
South Eighth Street School. He re-
manned In that position until his re-
tirement in 1904.

Finny Tribe of Mississinewa
Disport Themselves in
Drunken Antics.

MARION, Ind, July 12.-Multitudes
are feasting on drunken fish hauled in
by the bushel basketful here after
1916 barrels of beer were turned into
the Mississinewa river from the In
diana brewery under direction of a
United States revenue officer The
river Mississinewa is the Indian
equivalent for sparkling water 1t
became indeed sparkling water after
the beer was poured in. A stream of
pure champagne couldn't have caused
more of jamboree, and people who
looked down from the bridges laughed
and shrieked like a crowd of roister-
ers in a grill room on New Years
eve.
Some said afterward they had ex-
perienced a feeling akin to dizziness
as they looked over the ratings of
the bridges and were moved to mirth
by the antics of the fish. Many
thought they really had gone through
a sort Of sympathetic mental spree.
There came down the river thou
sands of fish disporting themselves in
an extremely unf1shlike way, leaping
all manner of new tangled somer-
saults and Hopping against each other
