    TARIFF DEBATES
TO GROW LIVELY
Free Sugar Bill Will Draw Fire
from Friends of Producers.
HOUSE TO PASS MEASURES.
Minority Leader in Senate for Bill.
Progressive Republicans Opposed to
Free Sugar Sixty Million Cut in
Revenue Too Great.
Washington, March 4. The liveliest
of the tariff revision fights in the pres
ent session of congress will break this
week, when the Democratic free sugar
bill and the income tax or excise bill,
which goes with it to make up the
$60,000,000 a year that would be lost in
sugar duties, probably will go through
the house and to defeat In the senate.
The passage of the bills In the house
eeems to be assured by the Democratic
majority which ratified them In cau
cus. In the senate the progressive
Republicans will oppose putting sugar
on the free list, and many Democrats
view with alarm the loss of so much
revenue, with only a measure, beset
with the possibility of a trial of Ha
constitutionality as the only offset.
Senator Martin, the Democratic
leader In the senate, and a few others
have Indorsed the house bills without
qualification. Many other Democrats,
however, decline to discuss them.
Senator Bristow, speaking as one
progressive, declared that none of his
colleagues favored free sugar, but all
did favor an income tax. He Bald It
would be unfair to American sugar
producers, who hart grown under stim
ulus of the duty, to remove all their
protection by a single legislative act.
The progressive Republicans, who
hold the balance of power on party
questions In the senate, have evinced
no disposition to seek common ground
with the Democrats to push tariff re-
vision legislation, although there have
been some personal consultations.
The entry of the free sugar bill to
the senate will make three tariff re
vision measlires pending there, the
steel and chemical bills are the oth
ers. All of these will be adversely
reported by the senate finance com'
mittee.
The regular Republicans will con
cede the possibility of passage of only
two tariff revision measures a wool
bill and a cotton bill. Neither of
these measures hag yet come from the
house ways nnd means committee and
the Republican concession la based
on the fact that the tariff board al
ready has reported on wool and will
soon report on the cotton schedule.
Treaties Come Up Tomorrow.
The pending arbitration treaties
with England and France will come
ud tomorrow. Senators who have
been supporting their ratification un
amended say they will pass the senate
by the necessary two-thirds vote.
Those opposed to the treaties claim
the constitutional treaty-making pow
ers of the senate will be invaded.
is said to be unlikely that the senate
will amend the treaties, but probably
will pass Senator ledge's resolution of
ratification, which provides no spe
clal agreements to arbitrate questions
under the treaties shall he mad
without the concurrence of the senate
Other amendments are pending an
long debate is In prospect.
The proposed investigation of th
money trust, the Florida Everglades
the Lawrence strike, the proposed a bo
lition of the commerce court and sev
eral other questions are taking up the
time of the house.

MORGAN IN A COAL TRUST?
Attack Made Before Interstate Com
merce Commission on Combine.
Washington, March 4. An attack
was made before the Interstate com
merce commission on what was termed
the "J. Pierpont Morgan coal combine"
by attorneys representing tho coal op
erators in the Pittsburgh district.
The question arose in the case of
John W. Dailenu and others against
the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie railroad
and other carriers of coal from the
Pittsburgh dlutrlct to great lake porU.
It was argued by Wade II. Ellia, rep
resenting the Pittsburgh Coal com
pany, that the present rate of 88 cents
a ton from the Pittsburgh district to
lake ports was excessive. He charged
that the railroads controlled by the
Morgan Interests had entered Into a
conspiracy to discriminate against the
coal operators In the Pittsburgh dis
trict in favor of the operators and
railroads In the West Virginia nnd
Kentucky fields on the same class of
traffic.

computed that 150,000 workers outside

President Sanctions Call cf Na

MM INVITATIONS SENT OUT.
Congress Should Have Medium to Fur.
nish First Hand Information of Of
ficial Nature About Business World.
For Expansion of Trade.
Washington, March 4. President
Tall ha taken the Initiative in the
movement to bring business men of
the country into touch with the gov
ernment lev jidvice and counsel in the
administration of laws, the enactment
nf new statutes and the development
of, comineice.
Virtually, the president proposes a
national board of trade, broadly repre
sentative of the commercial and Indus
trial organizations and of such char
acter as the government may properly
recognize bv a charter from congress.
As one of the first steps In the plan,
Secretary Nagel of the department of
commerce and labor, by direction of
the president, has called a convention
Ot delegates from commercial organ!
zations in all parts of the country to
meet In Washington on April 15 for
discussion and to plan the organiza
tion. Invitations already have been
sent to 1,000 local chambers of com
nierce, boards of trade and other com
niercial bodies. Responses to the an
nouncemnt of the tentative plan have
been such that President Taft Is con
vinced the time Is ripe for putting the
proposal to the test of practical ex
perinient.
The president first recommended
such a plan In a message to congress
last December, In which he suggested
that officials of the department of
commerce and labor and members of
appropriate congressional committees
might be made members ex officio of
such an association. In a statement
made public President Taft outlines
the purposes of such an organization
Opportunity to Consult.
It would give to the government
the opportunity to consult with the
business world on all propositions of
trade supremacy, It would afford co
operation in tho expansion of com
niereo nt home and abroad and would
provide a means by which government
officers charged with the enforcement
of laws could become acquainted with
the complexities which surround the!
i;ilr.i!nistiEtir.n in the business world

RECORD CROWDS VISIT
SEED CORN SPECIALS
Estimated 45,000 Will Listen to
Lectures Before Finish,
Omaha, March 4. The seed corn
specials, which were made possible
through the efforts of the business
men of Omaha, were greeted by rec
ord crowds at most every point they
stopped.
An actual count of the farmers who
listened to the lectures given by the
agricultural speakers from Nebraska
snowed that more than 10,000 farmers
visited thq Union Pacific special and
listened to the gospel of seed corn.
The eastern Burlington train was met
by 5,500 farmers, while the North
western took care of over 7.000. The
southern Burlington entertained close
to 8,000, making a total of 33,000 farm
ers who visited the trains.
With two trains to run this week,
it la estimated that the number 'of
farmers who will hear lectures will
amount to about 45,000, or more than
one third of the entire list of farmers
of the state.
At every point the trains were well
received. Rarely was there a dispo
sition to question the motive back of
the movement The business men of
tho state and farmers realized that
the campaign Is Blmply one to call at
teuton, to the condition. No effort
was made to sell anything. Even the
farmers were advised to get their seed
corn from their own cribs, if possible,
and if not to buy from their nearest
neighbors.
At every point the farmers say that
they are going to test their seed corn,
even though they have not dona so In
the past. In nearly every town the
farmers have reported that their seed
corn Is In bad shape and the agitation
is uoin to do lota of food for everyone.

were outnumbered and powerless to
suppress the disorders.
No fewer than fourteen fires were

of the city. The soldiera broke into
the Pelyang mint, which was set on
fire. Machinery to the value of many
thousands of dollars was destroyed.

THE HUMAN FOOT.
It la Said to Ba Changing and In Tun
May Bacom Toeless.
A London physician. Dr. R. Clement
Lucas, says that if man keeps on wear
ing shoes and living under the present
conditions he may eventually develop
Into a one toed animal, or. more prop
erly speaking, a toeless one.
A number of years ago Dr. Lncaa
pointed out that the gradual disappear
ance of the little toe was getting nheatf
of the textbook, for while it had al
ready lost one of Its extensor tendons
in quite an appreciable percentage of
cases, one of its ilexor tendons waa
absent also. On the other hand, tha
grent toe had undergone extraordi
nary developments because the inner
side of the foot was the first to catch,
the center of gravity In transferring
the weight of the body from one foot
to the other Iu walking.
The hore, which was oneff a 0t
toed animal, now moves about solely
on the nail of Its big toe or consolidat
ed toes. There is no doubt that man's
internal organism hna been much mod
ified since he left off living with na
ture and began living on it. Intestines
have changed noticeably. Tho foot it
self has also changed. It is more com
pactly built now, for the toes of th
savage races are widely separated and
stuck out on different angles, the bif
toe especially being thrown far out
and resembling the great toes of a.
baboon. Excha ngo.
CULTIVATE SIDE VISION.
It Will Enable You to 8te In 8vral
Directions at Ono.
One of the most useful gifts one can
have is a good side vision. By side
vision Is meant literally ability to
see in several directions at once and
to know what la going on in other di
rections besides that upon which the
gaze may be fixed at the moment
Just try tho next time you are read
ing your paper in the train, for In
stance, and you will understand clear
ly what is meant
You can with little effort and whll
still rending follow the movements ot
those sitting opposite you and even
thoso at your side.
With a little practice the range of
your side vision can be extended be
hind you in each direction to an angU
of forty-five degrees, and you can se
clearly every movement that takes
plnce on both sides simultaneously.
Now, just think what this, means.
The man in possession of a good side
vision is not an easy one to take by
surprise la business be finds it t
valuable asset, especially when talking
with more than ono person at a time.
He can guard agalnvt dangers from,
unexpected sources, nnd when crossing
n roadway be can clearly see the traf
fic coming from either direction while,
still looking straight ahead. London
