PARTIES TO AVOID .
DEFEAT Of TARIFF
E3A
Neither Republicans Nor Dem
ocrats Are Reported Seek
ing Such Action.
BY MARK SULLIVAN. 4.

To understand the tariff fight begin
ming this week, the question should be
seem not as one of passing or not pass
ing the bill. The fight may become
that in It's later stages, but is not that
and then passing q bill that Is almost
wholly agricultural, or of doing SoIne-
thing different. The bill as 1t stands
contains O great quantity Of items
needed and wanted by farmers. The
bill will at all times continue to contain
q great quantity of items desired by
farmers. That being SO, neither party
Is going to put itself in the position OF
committed to passing it, and the Demo-
crats will not take the burden of pre-
venting the farmers from getting higher
protection for their products.
Under this condition the immediate
faRht win center about making the bill
an almost wholly agricultural one. TO
say the same thing In different WORDS,
The immediate fight will center about
