CONFLICTING VIEWS
ON TARIFF BURDENS
EXPRESSED IN HOUSE
lRepubuIcan A. p. Leased wIrel

WASHINGTON, June 30.-Sharp-
ly conflicting views as to the tax
burden to be imposed on the Ameri-
can people by the administration S
tariff bill were expressed today by
Republican and Democratic leaders
of the house.
Counting the free list, the average
duty rate was estimated by Chairman
Fordney of the ways and means COM
mittee at between is and 20 per cent,
compared with the 1856 Payne
Aldrich average and the per cent
under the present Underwood meas
ure. Mr.. Fordney insisted, however,
that the average. after an accurate
estimate. would range lower than the
Payne Aldrich schedules.
Taking issue with the chairman
Representative Garner, Texas, rank
| ing Democrat on the committee, de-
clared the rates. considering the
American valuation provisions. were
! higher than those in amy tariff bill
/ passed by congress since the civil
| war.
Mr. Fordney had announced early
statement showing in detail some OF
the essential provisions of the bill and
clearing up many points of difference
| but rush of work, he later said
made il impossible.
| The upshot of all tariff talk yeri-
1 fled predictions made before the bill
was introduced Wednesday that the
question whether the new rates
taken as a whole. were higher or low
/ Il
would be the subject of unending and
everlasting controversy and discus
sion.
MIR. F'ordney's plan to have the bill
reported Saturday. after a COMMITTEES
meeting. was changed. and the meet
4 ing was called for Wednesday.
1t seemed to be agreed that the
American valuation section would ef-
| feet between 90 and 60 per cent of all
! imports which have no standard
value. In fixing the duty upon q
chair, for example, the COMMITTEES
wrote into the bin provision that IL
should be assessed upon 'the value in
| the American market of a compar-
able and competitive article. In q
word. a chair shipped here from Ger
many and costing 50 there would be
assessed at the port of entry at IS, II
! the latter figure were judged to be
the fair price in this country
Under existing law the duty is
based upon the foreign value.
! No definite agreement was reached
! by the caucus tonight on the proee-
dure to be followed in the house A
! tacit understanding. however. was
reached that many of the contested
rates should be placed before the
house for straight amendment, sep
arate consideration and vote.
The contested subjects include oil
, lumber and hides. now on the free
list. and the provision respecting con-
troll of dye importations.
The tentative plan, although lack
ing formal approval, provides for
4 about 10 days of general debate. afte,
| which a special rule will be sought Il
4 prevent amendment except through
the committee or to the contested
list.
Several more conferences will prob
ably be held on the bill The mex

Alarming News Fro m
Washington Is Signal
For United Effort To
Have New Tariff Bill
Amended If Possible

No more disturbing news has
reached Phoenix in long time than
the Associated Press dispatch in The
Republican yesterday morning an
nouncing the introduction in the
house of the permanent tariff bill, a
presentation of many of the schedules
showing that cotton had been left
on the free list when a tariff of 20
cents a pound had been more or less
confidently expected.
just what that meant was a mat
ter of doubt, but the fact was an
alarming one and measures were at
once taken by w. S. Stevens, presi-
dent of the Arizona American
Egyptian Cotton Growers associa-
ton, first to ascertain the real sta
tus of cotton and then to secure an
amendment to the bill if it was the
purpose of the ways and means COM
mittee of the house to put the meas
ure through in that shape.
The Republican sent kilograms to
Senators Cameron and Asnurst and
to Representative Hayden asking for
further information. The reply from
Mr.. Hayden was not very reassur-

TERRITORIAL TREASURY IS
 FACING SERIOUS STRAIN

Rigid economy in the affairs of territory must be the order of public affairs during the next two years or plans for the raising of greater revenue must be devised, in the opinion of those familiar with the territory's finances.
 At the present time all public monies that come into the public treasury are derived from license fees and special taxes on the output of mines and the fisheries. These have been insufficient to carry on the business of the territory and for the past two years the public business has cost more than the in- come.
 According to the books in the office of Territorial Treasurer Smith there is an annual income of about s55o,0UO.
 The large part of the territorial monies are derived from the fisher ies business. On account of litiga- tion this was held up until two or three years ago, when it was paid into the treasury in lump sum, and at one time there was close to a million dollars in the treasury. The last legislature made appropria- tions to the extent that the outgo is now larger than the annual average income.
 While it is within the power of the legislature to provide general prop erty tax, many people contend that this would, involve the making of new valuation and assessment of all the property in the entire terri tory, and then there would have to be provided in each division new machinery for the collection of the taxes. The question bids fair to be one of the hard problems which will confront the coming session of the territorial lawmakers.

REPUBLICANS
 INDORSE CANDIDATES

A very largely attended meeting of Fairbanks Republicans was held at Eagle hall on Tursday night and the indorsement of aspirants for di- visional offices was the order of the evening.
 There were two surprises sprung on the meeting. the first being the indorsement of Thos. A. Marquam for district judge, and the failure of supporters of Judge Wickersham to bring the gubernatorial question be- fore the meeting. An effort was made to get an indorsement for J. J. Crossley, for judge, but his following following was inconse- quental.
 An effort was made to have all the candidates places in nomination for & general vote, but that plan was defeated. The club then decided to give inducements to the candi- dates receiving the high vote. In the contest for the judgeship, Marquam led with 222 votes, Cecil H. Clegg was second high with Al, E. Coke Hill received ii votes and Louis K. Pratt six. Charles Beam received the in. dorsement of the club for marshal with a total of 226 votes, with O. P. Gaustad second with 1O7. Bert Stevens received 26 and P. J. Rick ert 25.
 Guy B. Erwin was the unanimous choice of the meeting for appoint ment as United States attorney. He was the only candidate seeking in- dorsement.
 Senator-elect E. E. Collins and Hawley Sterling contested the in- dorsement for suveyor-general of the territory, and Sterling received a majority of 70 votes, his total being 1S0.
 As is indicated by the votes cast for the various candidates, the meeting was we'll attended, and there were quite number of women on hand to take part in the pro- ceedings.
