The Fordney Anti b JUMPING BIZ


The bill prepared and offered In the
House OF Representatives shortly before
the adjournment of the special session
of congress by Rep. j. w. Fordney. was
taken up Wednesday in the house and
passed without record vote. The bill
was introduced long enough in advance
to give all members of congress an op-
portunity to investigate it and to be-.
come acquainted with its provisions,
and Cong. Fordney was assured of it's
early enactment into law. Speedy sc
tion has assuredly been taken by the
house and it is thought similar action
will be had quickly in the senate, al.
though Senator Smoot of Utah. has an
anti dumping bill peuoing. The Chi
cago Tribune has the following to say:
Washington, d. c., Dec. 9.--Without
a record vote the house today passed
the Fordney bill designed to prevent
foreign manufacturers from fooding g
American markets with products sold
at a lower price In the United States
than in the country OF manufacture.
The measure would authorize the sec.
retary OF the treasury to send agents to
inspect the books and plants of manu-
facturers OF exports to the United States
and to study prices OF such merchan
disc abroad. Should the producers re
fuse to submit to such inspection thei
products would be exclud cd from th'
United States.

Washington Letter.
FORCE BILL FOR SOUTH
WOULD CUT DOWN VOTE

Washington, d. C.-Senator George
H. Moses, of New Hampshire, has in
troduced resolution calling for the
members of the House and five mem
bers of the Senate to investigate and
report before July 1st, next, upon the
entire question of whether citizens are
persistently denied the right of suf-
frage in the Southern States, and to
recommend legislation for the decrease
of the representation in Congress
from those States should it be found
the right to vote has been denied.
The South, which was in control of
Congress during the war with Ger
many, and restricted the price of the
farmers wheat, while it did not re-
strict the price of the planters cotton,
bases its representation, as other sec
tions do, upon population, over twen-
tyone years of age. If large part of
that voting population is denied the
suffrage because of color, or other
wise, the South is not entitled to its
present representation.
In commenting upon his Resolution.
Senator Moses said that he had been
much impressed by the sudden acces-
sion of political virtue demonstrated
by the grand jury at Grand Rapids,
where a partisan Department of JUS
tice, in an ex-parte hearing, had pro-
duced flock of indictments in connec-
tion with the last Senatorial Election
in Michigan. "It is refreshing" SEN
ator Moses said, "to observe the tre-
mendous enthusiasm of the Democra-
tic party for purity in elections, and
it would be a great pity to allow this
divine affiatus to subside without de-
irving it's full benefit for the entire
country. The corruption of the Mich
igan electorate-if any occurred-is
most distressing. But it is no more
distressing than suppression of the
electorate in. the Southern States,
which is so notorious. as to require no
evidence to be adduced. However, it
is desirable to establish all the facts
surrounding elections not only in
Michigan, but elsewhere, in order that
the purity of the personnel of Con-
gress, in both branches, may be pro-
tected against the presence of men
who hold their seas in contravention
of statutory or constitutional privi-
leges. The inquiry into Senator New
berry's title to his seat will not be
permitted to 60 forward alone. There
are many interesting facts far remov-
ed from Michigan which may be
brought out helpfully in this connec-
ton, and / shall use my best efforts to
see that this is DONE"
