Tariff Eill, RAWLINS CHAMPIONS MINORITY SDE For Three Hours Srnnte Itrnm Amu- inrnl nn Ilotli Mdrn of the llltl to Provide n t'oniiiornr Tnrlff Schedule. (Continued from First Page.) Philippines in the future, hut ho would never willingly agree to put Into a bill a legislative promise vague, uncertain and perhaps Impossible of fulfillment, raising vain hopes And doing no good. Mr. Lodge spoke for about an hour and was followed by Mr. Rawlins. nnwltnn AHncka the 111 II- After reviewing tho bill proposed by a majority of tho committee Mr. Rawlins said It must be plain tbat tho majority measure would not tend to promote peace and order In the Philippine archipelago. He did not think It difficult to foresee the results of the policy proposed by the ma jority. War, Insurrection, brigandage, rob cbry and assassination would continue. In dustry nnd trade would bo paralyzed. Loss of blood and treasure would continue. Tho horror of tho situation, now Indescribable, would grow more aggravated. Tho Philippine commission, ho asserted, desired to have large sums of money for expenditures. Thero was no limit to the commission's power to multiply offices, employments and salaries. It owed no re sponsibility, ho declared, to the Filipino people. One of the necessary results, ho Insisted, of tho administration's Imperial program, was that tho officers In the Islands would replenish their fortunes Rnd then return to this country to live In af fluence. I'olntn to Cnhn for Kxnmple. "Ijok." said he. "at tho conduct of our agents in Cuba, stealing tho trust funds to their own core. Examine tho proceed ings of even our Judges, marshals and other officials In far distant Alaska. Con sniraclcs to commit a larceny of wealth seem to become predominant. Tho policy outlined by tho majority proposes a per manent Institution of tho practico oi tyranny." Hn declared that the obicct of the meas- uro proposed by tho majority was to ob struct nnd destrov trndo with the Islands by placing embargoes upon It. Theso methods, he insisted, would incite tno Islanders to further hostility nnd insur rection. Tho great army now maintained on tho islands was Insufficient to protect liro nnd property. Ho nuicuiea tne pmn of campaign adopted by the army In the Philippines and denounced tho "flnessoo" by which Agulnaldo was made a prisoner. It was Idlo, he said, to suppose that the peoplo of the Islands ever would forglvo us or look upon us as friends. Time Yet (or nedemntlon. After reviewing briefly the origin of tho Insurrection, Mr. Rawlins said it was not too lato yet to "fulfill our pledge to accord to them their Independence. It Is not yet too late for us to stay the hand of tho carpetbagger and remove tho Islands from futuro exploitation. The exploitation, he declared, would re sult In tho control of everything In the Islands by trusts. When the Philippines becamo thus "trust Infested" tho result could be lorecasted readily. "Tho democratic proposition," he said, "Is that tariff should be imposed for rev enue, tho duties to be so adjusted as to operate equally throughout the country and not discriminate between class or sec tion. "Tho proposition which the minority sub mits, If adopted, will prove a simple and offectlve remedy for tha troubles which afflict us. It proposes to relinquish the Islands, It proposes that so long aa we continue In possession of the islands there shall bo freedom of trade between them nnd the United States. When tho United States withdraws from tho islands and they assume In all respects the attitude ot a foreign country they will be subject to the provisions of our general laws relat ing to tariff taxation. I.rt the Inhntnrtltr Go. "Let tho Ishmaollto go. Otherwise thi burden of our difficulties will grow. Taxes, llko the Old Man of tho Sea, will hang upon our backs. And tn the end the gory head of tho republic may be raised upon a pike as a terrlblo warning to all who would strugglo free." At tho conclusion of Mr. Rnwlln's speech Mr. Dacon of Georgia reforrc' to a colloquy between hlmsolf and Mr. Lodge concerning nn order ot the secretary ot war to permit ships under foreign flags to enter tho trade between the United States and the Philip pines after the decision ot tho supreme court that the islands wero domestic terri tory. No exigency of trade, in his opinion, was sufficient reason for such violation of tho law, Mr, Bacon said that If ho had been tho secretary of war he would not havo is sued such nn order, becauso he could con ceive of no emergency which would warrant him In violating tbo law. Ho protrsted against what he considered tho "hot haste," in pressing the pending measure, and against what he asserted was an effort to withhold from tho senate In formation relating to tho Philippines, Mr. Stowart ot Nevada took Issue with Mr. Oacon's argument that an executive officer could not set nsldo a law for tho public good as being In contravention with tho history and Jurisprudence of Kng'and nud America. Ho assertod that the rule had existed for centuries that statutory law must yield to great emergencies. At 4:30, on motion of Mr. Ledge, tho sen- ato went Into exooutlvo session and at 5:50 adjourned. If llniinoi Salve doesn't cure your piles, your monoy will b returned.
