He &poke record time in his Jife. from manuseript for Speaker Cannon reviewed the tariff leg- islation enacted by congress at the speclal wession and the necessity of the govern- ment for more revenue, He defended the record of the republican party for progres- sive legislation and named one by one the progressive measures enacted by the party. He also defended the Payne bill as a p ducer af increased revenues and decl$red the evidence shuwed an increasing prosper- iy, Continuing he sald: Unhealthy Agitation Deprecated. “Now, gentigmen, there is only one thing that can halt this confident move forward to give the country another era of pros- perity such as we had from 1897 to 1907, and thag is agltation for the mere purpose of agitallon, without any well-concelved healthy. purpose in view. “The senators and representatives who call themselves ‘insurgents’ and who voted against the enactment of the Payne bill, voted to increase or maintain the duties on the Industries and products of thelr own states and sections. They were protectionists for thelr people, but they were opposed to protection for other peo- ple in other sections, “Senator LaFollette did not vote to in- crease the duties on lead and zinc, but he detended the tinance committee’s schedul on those products In speeches, saying they were not high enough, explaining, however, that he could not vote on the question be- cause he said Le had a personal pecuniary Interest In the outcome. “There was not one member of the re- publican majority who secured in the bill as enacted all that he had contended for. President Taft, Segator Aldrich and my- self all accepted rore compromises than the so-cailed ‘insGrgents’ were asked to accept.

I have been a member of the republican party since it was organized and I have mever known of any man or group of men being read out of any party except by them- selves, ““The senator, I think, aptly recalled the story of the three tallors of Tooley street ‘We, who met and prepared the preambl the people of England’ That is a fllustration of the ego that often dominates the minority everywhere, in town meet- ings, state legislatures, federal congresses, fn churghes, and in every, place where men must co-operate.

President Taft, when he signed the bill, made a public statement In which he said: There have been a great number of real decreases in rates and they constitute a sufficlent amount to justify a statement that this bill is & substantial downward revision and a reduction of Tates.' “In his Winona speech the president de- clared: *“Fhe Payne tariff bill is the best tarift bill the republican party has ever passed.’ tor Cummins declares that the U sue from now until the natlonal comve tion In M2 is.

The advices add that the steamer Dicktor, belonging to the Blye- tields Steamship company, which came Into the possession of the revolullonary forces about a week ago, was detained only ono day and that such detention was only for the purpose of examining the vessel with a view to determining whether it cartied con- traband goods.

NEW ORDER IN PEAVEY CASE Effective Date Still Further Po poned Until April 1.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—(Special Tele- gram.)—The Interstate ~Commerce com- I'misston today extended the time In which | ratiroads shall ceass granting elevation | charges from January 1 to April 1.

Under the original bill the Union Pacific rallroad was charged with allowing eleva- tlon charges to Peavey & Co., | some 430 country elevators in the siate of | Nebraska, North and South Dakota, Minne- sota, Towa and Kansas, besides two large elevators at Councfl Bluffs and City.

It has bee great task to meet all the.com- plexities of the law and the expected at- tacks upon it by the corporations. The latest estimates indicate a not rev- enue under it of appriximately $26,000,000 annually and 00 corporations ars likely to have to pay corporation taxe! There are many uncertainties about its effects. In one of the far southwest states, for Instance, it has been found that not over 10 per cent of many thou- sands of corporations whose officlal éx- istence was authorized have ever actually done business. Improper registration in many cases is fully expected with stch a gigantio scheme, but the seriousness of the penal- tes under the law will apply just the same to those who fail to get the forms and regulations. The malling of the forms and blanks to every corporation listed in the varlous districts is not spe- cifically required by law and is merely to assist the corporations. Those not reglstered should apply imme- dlately to the colleetors. All the returns are required to be In the collectors’ hands by March 1, then sent (o the internal rev- enue bureau here, where the tax will be assessed and the taxpaying corporations notified by June 1, the tax to be paid by July 1.
