Ay ed IC RAE I TALKING ABOUT TARIFF. The Senate and House Conterrees Meet in Secret Session. 40 cents a bushel; wheat, 25 cents a bushel; corn and oats, 15 cents a bushel; and so on.

C, July 9 —To these duties are of nohelp to him in | coal company in this city commenc- day the Senate and House conferrees met in secret session to adjust as far as possible the differences between them on the pending tariff bill. That an improvement from a Western and | Southern tariff standpoint will be made on the amended bill ihere is little ground to doubt. There will possibly be no radical changes made, but the bill is in the hands of good) tariff reformers. Eastern malcontents are up in arms | at the personnel of the conference committees. Geographically consid- ered these sections of the country have been ignored in behalf of the} House and Senate and the Democrats propose to complete the bill before the Republican members are called in to criticise. And these Democrats who have final charge are not from protected districts nor influenced by protected environments. Voorhees of Indiana,Jones of Arkansas, Harris of Tennessee, and Vest of Missouri, came from States which insist upon radical tariff reductions and kuow what tariff reform means. The Democratic House conferees are no less satisfactory. Wilson is from a State with etrong protection tendencies, but he has proved him self a Joyal friend to the tariff reduc- tion. McMillin of Tennessee, Turner of Georgia and Montgomery of Ken- tucky, while from the South, are big enough and broad enough to legis- late for the general good. It must be remembered that this conference committee membership was not due to sectional prejudice in its compo sition. It was purely the result of accidental committee Speaker Crisp chose the first four of the ways and means committee. President Stevenson chose the of the finance committee, the floor manager of the bill and the two Senators who were charged with defending the customs schedule. In the majority, as thus composed, there is not a member east of the Ohio and north of the Potomac. The committee have preserved an abso lute silence on the probable result as indicated by their first conference. The only speculation justifiable is that which is based upon a knowl- edge of the men, the influences of their environs and the usual result when the Senate and House clash on legislation. The startling statement that the President sympathizes with the House inits struggle, or that his influence will be thrown to the House conferrees, can not be sub stantiated. This is certain. The Senate conferees will make every concession in the interest of tariff reductions which can be made without endangering the passage of the bill. Voorhees, Harris, Vest and Jones are Democrats in whom the country, ard more especially the Southwest, have every confidence, and whatever improvement can be suggested in the Senate bill that will not result in defeating it will be made. The House conferees are de- termined and fair. Chairman Wilson and the Representatives who sym pathize with him will work in har- mony with the Senators. There is very little indication of knifing and the Democratic warfare that has been so entertainingly predicted by war correspondents, and a better feeling exists all around among De- mocratic legislators. Protecting the Far mer, The eighth plank in Ohio republi- can platform adopted by the state convention at Columbus is as fol lows:* “We indorse the sentiment of na- tional grange—i. e., that all tariff laws shall protect the products of a farm as well as the products of the factory.” The best way to protect the pro ducts of the farm and the only way they can be protected, is to take the tax off the plows and other imple- ments and articles the farmer has to use in the business so that he can produce his crops at a less cost. The custom duties on agricultural products passed for the purpose of protecting the American farmer ought to make him amile. Butter, 6 cents a pound; milk, 5 cents a gal- membership. members chairman single members of the conference much The Northern and! any way, because he produces more of these articles than the country can possibly use. But if the farmer wants to get a few seeds from Cana a he must pay 20 per cent advalo- rem duty on them. If he wishes to try sowe foreign plant or shrub or vine 20 per cent advalorem duty is |the penalty. If he thinks he would} like to improve his herd with an im-| ported two year old bull calf, $10 is/ t | the fine Le must pay at the first cus-/| tom house that is great and glorious work of protect-| jng the American farmer. But then he finds his compensation in a duty of 5 cents a dozen on his hen eggs. If the farmers could form a trust as the glass, oil. mep do, so that they toe, could add the amount to the price of their engaged in the twine and sugar it, then the Ohio republicans might protect the onions and hens’ eggs as | they do the white lead of the paint | trust and the binding twine of the! twine trust. As it is, the farmer is selling his goods in an overstocked market and competing with every other farmer.—Chicago Record. THE OLD SACRAMENTO. Major Stonestreet 1s Mistaken. Kansas City,July 8.—Major Stonc- street in time Fourths of July in the “aute- bellum days,” claims the Sacramento as the capture of General Reid and locates the gun in Jackson county. As a citizen of Lexington, I protest dearly prized possession! Year in, year out, the old Sacremento crown ed the bluffs at Lexington, watching in grim silence over the river—then the business roadway of Missouri. “Many a time and oft” have I sat upon that old gun in the dim sum- mer twilight, and dangled ‘uy feet, with the youths and maidens of the era just preceding the war. Well do I morning when I, with remember the spring | the other se minary girls, streaming eyes, when our boy sweet- hearts marched gaily away to the] war guarding the old Sacramentc, the pride and dependences of *Bled-| soe’s battery.” There lives not one of our generation that does not still tenderly cherish the memory of the Sacremento and thrill with pride at the mention of Bledsoe and his fam- ous battery. The old gun, I believe, lies in a grave in Alabama. A Lirtre Resei | It Makes a Difference. | If American Catholics want to| preyent the growth of the A. P.
