Tariff Reciprocity

The agricultural interests of the Northwest. as
represented by the National Grange. have announced
they viii oppose any duty on lumber, shingles and
logs in the forthcoming revision of the tariff at the
special session Of congress which opens April Is. The
organization previously had announced that it would
wage a battle. if necessary. to secure upward revision
Of the agricultural schedules.
The principal problem confronting congress IN
connection with the proposed revision of the tariff is
the necessity for composing such differences Of opin-
ion as presented by the National Grange. That the
agricultural schedules should be revised upward is
generally conceded and will meet little opposition eX-
cept from New England That a tariff on lumber
also should be maintained IS obvious. and any fight
that may be made by agricultural interests IN oppo-
sition thereto will react to the disadvantage Of agri-
culture.
It Is true that some Of the rates in the lumber
schedules are e~xorbitant and should be reduced; but
to remove all protection from the industry merely BE-
cause the agricultural interests Of the country use
approximately 40 per cent Of the production Of the
lumber and single mills would be folly. It is the in
tention Of the democratic minority. in which they
viii have the support of many republicans. 70 place
the lumber schedules upon 2 more equitable basis.
but neither the democrats nor republicans can afford
to advocate the placing Of lumber on the free list.
II is the determination Of leaders Of both parties
to enact a tariff based upon more scientific lines
than any previously enacted. They propose a tariff

among all industries. Each industry is clamoring
for special favors at the expense Of other industries.
and if such demands are needed, there is 40 posi-
bility of a tariff that will serve the nation az n whole.
Agriculture. as well as all other industries. must
recognize the fact that a sound tariff bill is based
upon what might be termed a reciprocal arrange
ment. If congress Is sincere in its desire to work out
such a tariff. it viii paw no needed 10 such demands
as that Of the National Grange. The lumber indus
try is one of the most important in the United, and
If agriculture secures the protection it demands, there
is no logical reason why its should not concede 70 the
lumber industry the same measure Of protection.
Tt Is true that in the present and former tariff
bills the lumber industry has received many special
favors. and agriculture has borne the major part Of
the burden However as we understand the purpose
Of the proposed revision. congress viii endeavor to
eqUalize the benefits Of protection. and It would be
distinctly unfair for agriculture to insist that the
lumber industry Re cut off from All advantages which
2 fair measure e protection would assure it.

PRESIDENT HOOVER. EFFICIENCY FISHERMAN
Carrying out the policy OF the previous admins
tration. President Hoover is to be a fishing executive.
More system and efficiency, however. mark his prep
a~rations. He will leave as little as possible to chance.
MI. Coolidge used to hold himself open to invitations
and suggestions, and never knew where he would
angle from one season to another, but Mr.. Hoover. a
big business man and an engineer. goes about it in a
business-Iike way.
Herbert has been in office less than a month, but
already he had has picked his streams. mapped out
his fishing country, had b%lueprInts made of the deep
holes and had the habits of all fish in that section
catalogued by card index.
Essentially an engineer. he will probably lay out
each and every detail Of his fishing expedition as
infinitely as he would lay out plans for q summers
work on a new suspension bridge. He probably has
il all figured out how many fish he will need during
the second quarter, where they will be at a specific
date. and how much time it will take to catch them.
Probably Mr.. Hoover has a fish secretary whose
duty it is to prepare and keep the fish files. Sup
pose on a warm May day he wants to catch a
sneckled trout weighing exactly two pounds and 4

They must take the bait quickly or look for a big

Out goes any trout that refuses to work in har-

And the fish might as well realize one thing now
as later: When Mr.. Hoover desires to see them he
will take no message that they are in conference.

NEW YORK, March 27.-A ten
dency in the American drama 70
lay stories in New York and the
suburbs has been noted by one OF
the metropolitan critics, Mr.. j.
Brooks Atkinson.
The New York setting, Mr.. At
kinson thinks, is more convenient
than inevitable. AS for instance, IN
"Kibitzer."
The term "kibitzer'' itself would
need explaining to strangers, for II

are there SO many little shops of
this particular type, clustered in
every neighborhood as they are.
Often they are called stationery
stores, because their stock usually
includes goods in that cla5sifiea-
ton. But the cigar case, the candy
counter and the newsstand are
the standard equipment.
PLACES TO LOAF
Other cities, of course. have their
ccunterparts. But they serve the
neighborhods in another way-as
loafing places for those who live
or work ~thereabout. The scene in
the evening family resembles the
once familiary picture Of small
townsmen swapping yarns on soap
boxes in village stores.
Like the latter scene. too. they
are threatened by modern condi-
tons. Or SO thinks the l~ugubrious
Mr. M. Grossm7n. proprietor Of
such q shop in the section north or
Eighth street.

The typical graywacke is dis tinctly tuffaceous. It consists almost wholly of green horn blende and plagioclase with as- sociated secondary alteration products. Hornblende is ap- proXimately equal in quantity to the plagioclase. Locally a little orthoclase is present, and occasionally accessory apatite. In the freshest specimens both the hornblende and the plagio- clase show many crystal faces. The feldspars are partly al tered to sericite and epidote. The ferromagnesian minerals are chloritic. A little calcite is not uncommon, and rarely there is a trace of secondary quartz. A little residium of augite is left at the core of many of the hornblende crys- tals, suggesting that the origin al ferromagnesian mineral was in part, if not wholly, a pyrox- enc.
 There are three main belts in which beds of slaty argillite or argillite that is in part thin banded with light green-gray to dark quartzitic layers and forms the crest and southern forms the crest and southern slope of the ridge between Greenpoint and Hummel Glac- iers and the southern part of the area of sediments between Casey and Ferguson Glaciers.

 Character and Extent
 A batholith of igneous rocks with few outlying cupolas and dikes occupies most of the area shown on Plate 2. This is known as the Texas Creek batholith. The rock is chiefly a granodiorite and is intimate ly and probably genetically connected with most of the ore deposits of this district. The mass is therefore very import ant because of it's relation to the mineral deposits, and its contacts will be described in detail.
 The core of the Texas Creek batholith is a porphyritic gran odiorite, here named Texas

 Alaska's share of the total al- lotment amounts to $20,628, a decided decrease compared to the previous year.
 With major developments now taking place in the pulp timber lands in Alaska, it is expected that the next few years will show greater revenues avail able to the territory from this source.

Az miles. From an altitude of about $500 feet on the south- west slope of Mount Dolly it crosses the Salmon River road just north of Fish Creek and probably follows the ridge on the south side of Thumb Creek, though the contact here was not traced. All of the valley of Thumb Creek to a point within three-quarters of a mile of the foot of Thumb Glacier is in the Texas Creek granodiorite. The head of Thumb Creek Valley is in the Hyder quartz monzo- mite. The boundary of the Tex as Creek granodiorite strikes northwest along the east side of the valley of Red Glacier and crosses Thumb Creek, then just below the foot of Gray Glacier it swings more toward the west, crosses Thumb Creek at the head of Ferguson Glac- fer, and continues nearly along the crest of the ridge to point about 2 miles to the west, where it turns north and then a little east of north to a point cn the west side of Ferguson Glacier about 34, of a mile from it's foot, at an altitude of about 5000 feet.

Creek granodiorite but the border facies and the outlying stocks are in general nonpor- phyritic quartz diorite. Local ly immediately adjacent to the contact, diorite or monzodio- rite is found. These less aka lie and more basic facies are probably due to quicker cool ing, which resulted in a less advanced stage of differenti- ation.
 The Texas Crek batholith is cut by dikes of granodiorite a n d granodiorite porphyry genetically associated with the Hyder quartz monzonite and the Boundary granodiorite, by a few light-colored dikes of quartz porphyry, and by dark-colored dikes of malchite and lamprophyre. Within 500 feet of the borders or roof of tn e batholith aplite and peg matite veins are common in both the batholith and the country rock.
 Where small dikes of the Tex as Creek batholith occur in the country rock the dike rock has a fine to dense grain and a porphritic aspect, so that it is difficult or impossible to dis criminate between such dikes and the quartz porphyry dikes that cut the Texas Creek bath olith. The quartz porphyry dikes must be genetically asso- ciated with the Texas Creek batholith, as they have suf- fered the same metamorphism, are cut by the metalliferous veins, and are older than Hy- der quartz monzonite and the Boundary granodiorite. It is probable that the porphyries with which the Premier ore bodies in British Columbia are associated are outlying stocks genetically associated with the Texas Creek batholith.
