that when debate on the second reading
of the bin came up. Andrew Bonar Law.
opposition leader, might move an ad-
lcumment owing to the absence of As

yesterday that though he had resigned

at hand if needed. In the event an ad-
journment is not sought the debate will
continue for three days and the third
reading will not take place until after
Easter.
The Unionists were taken by sur
prise by the sudden turn of affairs,
and the statement OF Winston
Churchill who charged them with en-
dcavoring to seducc the army. He
declared the government had made It's
last move and that the issue now
rests with Ulster. If Ulster resists,

ment to secure the power held by the
districts.
The original proposition submit
ted provided that the land owners
in the Pallsade and Mesa county
districts pay the government $40 per
acre. and their share of the expense
of maintenance and operation of the
big ditch. This proposition was
withdrawn when the government
abandoned the idea of building along
the right of way of the Mesa county
district.
A year ago Mr., Aupperle stated
the Water Users Association sub
mitted two other proposition, sepa-
rately. to the districts. The one to
the Mesa county provided for fur
nishing two-acre feet of water to
each acre in the district at a cost of
S1.25 per acre. II more water was
required the third foot was to be n
dollar per acre. and the fourth foot
SIPS per acre. This proposition
provided for supplying the water at
l6 head gates without additional
charge. the ranchers to take care of
the water from that point
The proposition submitted to the
Palisade district provided for a
charge of seventy-five cents for the
first two acre feet. and of seventy
five cents for the third acre foot. and
a dollar per acre for the fourth acre
foot
These propositions were not ac-
ccpted and since then the govern
ment had gone on without making
plans for two districts. Mr.. Aupper-
le stated that il the districts were
included now it would be necessary
to build the power plant at the lower
end of Tunnel No. 3 instead of at the
upper end, and also to enlarge Tun-
mel No. ) which was now in process
OF construction. In his opinion both
these matters could be done. but the
engineer in charge had estimated
that 1t would entail an additional
cost on s150,000. He stated that the
water users were willing to go to
any reasonable lengths to unity all
the bitches. and he believed the gov
ernment was also disposed to help
the valley in every way possible. The
only two questions to be considered
was whether the project would stand
the extra cost and whether or not the
government could secure an approp-
ration for that purpose.

Salt Lake City, Jan. 15.-The new
tariff placing wool on the free list
vas held up to criticism when the
delegates of the National Wool Grow
ers' association marked the fiftieth
year of the association existence at
their annual convention here today
The address by the president of
organization, Frank j. Hagenbarth.
pointed out that for the third time
in century of national progress the
flockmaster faces free and unlimited
competition in the production of
wool against the whole world" that
previous experiences had proven the
woolgrowers' in abilityto withstand
the shock, and that the outcome of
the present experiment was doubtful.
The flockmaster is reduced" he
said, Ito the necessity of striving on
unequal terms with the half-clad saw

against hopeless odds. However. it
is an American Characteristic never

In analysis of the tariff he declar-
ed that it was decidedly an align
ment of the east and south against
the west and asserted that eighty
per cent of the products of New Jer-
sey would he found on the dutiable
list, whereas but nine per cent of the
products of Arizona and twelve per

Producer Is Praised.
THE backbone of the strength OF
the nation is the producer" he con-
tinued. THE producer is the farmer
or the miner. He, who takes from
the soil of the earth and the waters
thereof, and who takes from the sky
with its sun and its air, and from
these primary elements brings wealth
into the world, is alone entitled to
the kingly title, Producer The
rest of mankind, either directly or
indirectly, are parasites living Off
the fruits of his labor. Yet the un-
tariff act has been to favor the manu-
facturer and middleman on the the
CRY that the producer is able to take
care of himself In other words, the
parasite is more important than the
body on which il feeds.
''As further criticism of the tar
!ff act of October 3. 1913, the state
ment can conservatively be made
that, after all, it was written hastily
and with improper preparation and
information The labors of Messrs.
Underwood and Clark and their as
sociates in the preparation of con-
sistent tariff act, which covered
year or more of unremitting toll,
were hurriedly dispensed with when
Mr.. Bryan. and Mr. Wilson came
into power and wrote free wool, free
sugar and free CATTLE in place of the
paragraphs that had been prepared
heretofore by Mr.. Underwood. These
changes We're arbitrarily made and
without rhyme or reason as pertain
ing to the balance of the bill. Under
the new law, the grower of Merino

likely eliminated from the ranks of
American industry. The mutton pro-
ducer may be able to survive, but
even this is problematical at this

after ALL" he added, "the toad of
adversely may yet bear a jewel in
its head. The misfortune that has
come upon us may prove a blessing
in disguise by calling our more seri-
GUS attention to proper breeding. to
more economical methods, to better
preparation of mutton and wool for
market. to the proper marketing of
these-products and to suitable ma
tional and state legislation.
Behind Competitors.
He suggested that American breed
ers were behind their competitors in
New Zealand. Australia and the Ar
gentine. Where our flockmaster, !"
he said. "imagines that 500 per head
for the right sort of breeding rams
will ruin him, the foreigner will read

dividual animals of rare merit.
He pointed out that western flock
masters lost an average of nearly two
cents pound on all the wool they
grew by branding sheep with insol-
uble materials when chalk would
answer the purpose.
