The New Tariff.

The Republican tariff bill on which
the Ways and Means committee of the
House of Representative began hear
ings on January 6, 1921, received finel
approval of the House on September
Is and of the Senate September l9.
The bill was before the House on its
original passage little hess than a
month. 1t was reported to the Senate
on April II, after committee hearings
that covered nine months. The orig
inal passage was four months later,
August 1o. The final action, as indi-
Gated in the opening paragraph, was
the acceptance of the conference re-
port which adjusted the differences be-
tween the two branches Of Congress.
The Republican administration has
struggled harder with this tariff than
with any of its predecessors, and
states men in Washington, of all politi-
cal persuasions, are now hoping the
voters will "see the thing in the proper
light" To say that the measure is
good or bad, only invites argument

sort of synony for trouble" and mos

The Street Called

THE Golden Rule in business ha:

The new creed of cooperation, of un.

an era of applied Christianity in the

Perhaps the basic thought has no
been more aptly expressed than in q
current trade magazine:
Enlightened Selfishness, is so
vast an Improvement over the 9TH

recognition. But, after all, en-
lightenment tackled on selfishness

it needs better vision than that

II is pointed out that with Minister

HITCH FOUND IN
ASHTON HEARING
Court Question at Issue Calls Halt
In Preliminary OF Local Man on
Charge OF EmbexxIement;
Involves Contempt.

Another hitch In the preliminary
hearing OF Orin Ashton, charged with
embezzling funds belonging to the
Apache Cotton oil company. was en-.
countered yesterday afternoon when
the prosecution appealed from Jus.
tice II. l.. Grigsby's decision com
mittIng J. A. Ryndak. a witness in
the case. to jail for contempt of
court.
The hearing will be resumed Mon
day morning after decision on the
appeal Is handed down by the dis
trict court.
Justice Grigsby held that the wit
ness was in contempt for failing and
refusing to produce certain records
demanded by the defense. The
court signed an order committing the
witness to jail, whereupon attorneys
for the prosecution applied for a
writ of habeas corpus in behalf of
the witness. District Judge VIII
Linn refused to grant hearing on
the application.
To get the question before the
district court, Attorneys Adrian Mel
ton and Ben Goff, county attorney,
conducting the prosecution, appealed
from the decision of the Justice
court in demanding that the records
be produced This question will be
decided by Judge VIII Linn before
further proceedings in the prelimi-
nary are taken, according to County
Attorney Goff.
Mr.. Ryndak was never placed in
jail He made supersedas bond
which sets him free until decision
is handed down by the district court.
The question involved in the ap-
peal is whether the justice can legal
ly require Mr.. Ryndak to bring GER
tain records into the court. The
prosecution contends that the audit
of the records are not complete and
that the witness cannot be legally
required to bring them into court
until such audit is complete.
