w Kitchins Bill which repeals the
free sugar clause Of the Under
wood Tariff Act, will be reported fay-
orably to the senate in the form in
which il has passed in the house. This
was virtually decided yesterday when
the Demoefatic members Of the SEN
ate finance COMMITTEES refused 70 be
moved by the arguments Of Senator
3 Hatdwich that consumption tax be
substituted for the tariff as q means
Of producing tho needed additional rev
enues, while the suggestion Of Senator
Gore, member Of the committee, that
the tariff be raised temporarily beyond
re sn-oprt Of the existing duty was
voted down. ~. y
Duty May Be Raised .al
It Is not improbable that when the
measure comes before the senate, how
ever, the duty will not be raised from
one cent a pound 20 cent and a half.
The necessity for greater and greater
revenues isapressing and IL Il the idea
of a Bumber Of senators that whatever
changes in the tariff the matter Of
preparedness is to bring about ought
20 be Incorporated now In the bill at.
fecting the sugar tariff in order that
the tariff may not appear as a subject
for legislation twice in the session. Al
temporary incTease In the sugar tariff
would probably reneive the votes of q
majority, OF the senators, i'm the opin.
ion Of lnany.ar ssssl,issls- S.,.lA z.4ssssi -
It is estimated that half cent per
pound increase over the existing rate,
to be- continued, would produce rev
enue 81 seventy million dollars.

I, ty Of the finance committee in refusing
to consider the consumption tax pro-
posal of Senator Hardwick finds zen.
eral support among the senators, as it
Is believed that the house would refuse
4 TO agree with any such an amendment
TO the bin and the general question
would have to be reopened. 1t Is be.
heyed that tbs country generally woul
resent the imposition Of an internal
taE ON sugar. s,
The suggestion advocated by Sena.
tor Gore Is that the tariff should be
PLACED Mt a cent and a half pound
for the present. but that this rate Of
duty should continue only for period
Z to terminate six months after the con.
clusion Of peace in Europe, after which
period the free sugar clause Of the
} Underwood Tariff Act, which was to
have come into effect on May 1, would
beeame automatically operative. I'VE 7,
Senator Hardwick's suggestion, which
found small favor, Is that an internal
revenue Of one cent pound ON all

should be imposed. :

In the stiffness of the midnight,
In tie silence of the Star

On the hillsides, near and far,
Came the Christ Child 10 his mother:
To the humble oxens stall;
He the Babe Of Paradise, sweet.
Lord Of Christmas King Of all.
Hush let not q word be spoken
OF his sacrifice for men,
STOPPING from his world Of glory,
To be woman-born, pen
OF sweet straw to be his cradle,
He is ours, just ours, today,
Mark that mortal smile, that shining
OF the halo In the hay.
While the palm trees rustic softly.
While his lullaby, the breeze,
Croons amid the angels anthem
Which the star-lit heaven cleaves,
We will claim him ours. our treasure,
Christmas Babe, and Babe divine.
Hail. thrice hail, O mystic stranger.
Nesting in thy straw-filled shrine!
