HOUSE ON SUGAR TARIFF
Mr. Hill Talks for lir.e Eoin Explaining
Condition in Philippines.
M0NDELL LEADS FIGHT ON THE BILL
Wyoming Mentor papa Paaus (
t"M Will aad Death
Kaell of Beet Sagar
Ia4atrr.
WASHINGTON, Jan. . In a session of
five hours tods? the house placed on
record a speech In favor of the. Philippine
tariff bill, one against it, and a twenty
minute talk for tariff revision according
to the republican demand of Maaaachu
setts. Mr. Hill of Connecticut occupied
threw hours and was listened to with the
greatest Interest In detailing the knowl
edge he gained from two visits to the
Philippines, the last one as a member of
the party of Secretary Taft last summer.
II paid particular attention to the tobacco
feature of the measure and explained away
much of Uie misapprehension as to the
enormous products that might be expected
from the islands. Their territory, he said,
was small and their fertile lands still fur
ther limited.
Mr. Mondell of Wyoming, who has led
the fight against the bill In the interest
of the beet sugar Industry of this coun
try, spoke vigorously against the measure
and against the policy of helping the
Filipino people by granting them opet
markets In the United States. He said
the paseage of this bill would be the
death knell of the beet sugar Industry In
the United 8tates.
The abolition of the tariff on hides was
pleaded for by Mr. Iawrence of Massachu
setts, who presented the position taken
by the republicans tf that slate.
Information regarding immigration from
Austria-Hungary contained In reports by
Marcus Braun was enked for from the sec
retary of commerce and labor by the house
on convening today.
Speech by Mr. Mill.
An Illustrated epeech on the tobarco
feature of the Philippine tariff bill waa be
gun by Mr. Hill (Conn.).
A map showing the quality of the land
of the Philippines waa brought into "the
houses and Mr. Hill also had several sam
ples of the tobacco raised there. The coun
try, he said, followed In a remarkable de
gree the physical features of Japan, where
the tillable area was only something more
than 12 per cent. The census reports give
4 per cent of the total area ae the agri
cultural land of the Philippines, he said.
In describing the population he said that
slavery existed among the Moros. It was
a mild form of slavery-; but slavery never
theless. Tlvre were, he said, no Filipino
people. There are eighty-seven tribes,
speaking over fifty languages; there Is no
means of communication, no roads. About
14 per cent can read; S per cent read Span
ish. Under these circumstances. Mr. Hill
said, a high order of Intelligence could
not be expected.
Tobacco Iadnslry Small.
Substantially all of the export tobacco
of the islands comes, he said, from a single
valley in the Island of Luzon. The valley
is two miles wide and about fifty miles
long. No human being can comprehend, he
said, the primitive methods which prevail
In the making of all crops of the islands,
unless through personal observation. It
waa the wildest imagination to suppose
that at any time would Philippine Industry
ever be disastrous to American industries.
Mr. Hill reviewed at length the tobacco
Industry in the Philippines, explaining the
primitive methods of tobacco culture with
the limited manufacture of smoking and
chewing tobacco and cigars. He said single
factories in the United states make more
than the entire output of manufactured
tobacco in the Philippines. Mr, HIJ1 said a
careful study of the tobacco production in
the Philippines and export trade had per
suaded him that the United States has
nothing to fear from competition with
Philippine tobaoco, because of Its Impos
sible extensive tobacco culture.
Speaking of the argument that the cheap
labor of the orient would be brought in
direct competition with American tobacco
workers by i reduction of the duty on
Philippine tobacco. Mr. Hill called atten
tion to the fact that American exclusion
laws keeps Chinese out of the islands and
contract labor cannot be employed. He
said practically all the cigar and cigarette
makers are Filipinos, few Chinese being
now employed. As all work of this sort
Is piecework, he naid, a man's earnings in
crease as his ability increases.
Mr. Hill said the manufacture of a first
class handmade cigar is almost as expen
sive aa in the United States.
Mr. Hill summarised the purely com
mercial effects of the proposed reduction in
tariff, saying the stimulus to industry in
the islands will result In the preservation
of Philippine Interests, which must sink
Into ruin if relief is not afforded. He said
the greatest benefit, however, will be the
increased alternative markets In the United
States nnd the islands for high-grade prod
ucts at good prices.
In conclusion. Mr. Hill said Philippine
Interests are essentially domestic Interests
and expressed confidence In the favorable
action of congress on the. proposed bill.
Reply by Mr. Mondell.
Mr. Mondell (Wyo. 1 was the next speaker.
He suld he aproached the discussion with
the full realization of the obligations of
this government to the Filipinos and with
a realization that charity should begin at
home. Beet sugar production in the United
States, he said, was a child of republican
legislation, which was protected until the
United States decided to "do something for
Cuba."
Mr. Mondell admitted he voted lor the
kCuban measure, but said he had never
derived any comfort from the results of
his vote. He declared there was an under
standing then that there was to be no fur
ther reduction In sugar tariffs.
The proposed concession would make a
spoiled child of the Filipino by building
up great haciendas and not benefiting the
ma sea.
"We are giving the Philippines every ad
vantage In our market, advantages that no
other country ever enjoyed." said Mr. Mon
dell. "and In return we are paying tribute
to the Moro in Internal revenue tax on
goods imported to the United States."
Mr. Mondell ridiculed the statement of
friends of1 the bill that only per cent of
the Philippine lands are tillable and de
clared there were nn islands in the world
to fertile and capable of such extensive
agricultural development.
"Until the united official detraction,"
' from the working qualities of the Filipino
and the richness of Philippine lands. Mr.
Mondell said, the Filipino was regarded as
an effective .worker. He urged that the
American farmer who raises beets Is the
first man to be considered, and the beet
ralr. he declared, could not share Secre
tary TaTt s eagerness to benefit the Fili
pinos at the expense of the American
farmer.
To give the Filipino a bounty ou the
natural product of the Islands. Mr. Mondell
said, would make him a mendicant at (he
feet of this republic for all time to come
He was willing to vote any amount of
money to aid distress In the Philippines,
but he oppoaed building up their industries
at the expense of an American industry
He predicted that the bill, if passed, would
deetrey the beet sus-ar Industry In this
country.
"Charity hgln at home," was the con
cluding sentiment expressed by Mr. Mon
dll. who held the floor for an hour and
a hall.
He was warmly congratulated at his
conclusion.
Demaada of People a lloaie.
Mr. Lawrence nf Massachusetts spoke
briefly in reply to the remarks of Mr.
(laik regsrdlug the tariff move In Maspa
ihjsetts. Mr. Lnwrrnre said the ways and
mean committee had heard and answered
the tariff prayer of the Filipino. Now It
was time the people at home be recognized
In their .want. There had been a long
time demand for free coal, free lumber and
free alcohol In the arts, he said. Th
republican party had taken the position
that the tariff should le revised to meet
existing conditions.
He concluded by a warning that history
might repeat Itself and should the domi
nant party favoring protection fall to ad
Just the tariff the task might be turned
over by the people to the party that did
not believe In the protection principle and
whose work In that lino had been disastrous
In the past.
The house adjourned at 5 o'clock.

ESGLI9H aVSTEM IS " DAXGERUl'l
Introduction of British Customs In
American Sports Discussed.
In all the talk that has been going the
rounds of the papers favoring tne intro
duction of English athletic methods in the
United States one very important point
has been overlooked. This Is the question:
Will English athletic customs stand the
test of the democracy tnut prevails at
American universities? The conditions are
not at all similar.
The English definition of what constitutes
an amateur is very strict. It would, for
Instance, shut out the hundreds of clever
young men who are working their way
through the American colleges without the
slightest loss of self-respect. On the other
hand, it is absolutely true that in Eng
land a very large pert-en t age of the stu
dents are sons of rich men or at least of
people who are very well to do. Then, too,
the early beginning of training in England
is distinct from our system. Across the
water the boys have all tiie time and op
portunity necessary for aihletics from a
very early age. They are tirred Into games
and encouraged to perfect themselves from
their preparatory schol days all along the
school life, and this with the aid of ex
perienced teachers.
In this country the fact is that our
youngsters are largely self-taught In ath
letic matters until they are full grown.
What they know they pick up themselves
as best they may In the odd hours when
not otherwise engaged in study or In earn
ing a living. It is only those who are for
tunate enough or ambitious enough to go to
the big colleges who can enjoy the priv
ileges and opportunities that are necessary
to the proper development of the perfect
athlete. Paraphernalia, gymnasiums, fields
and proper surroundings are as necessary
as the good frame and the strong heart.
Such facilities are eagerly grasped by the
lads who are athletically Inclined, but in
many instances they are available too late
to produce the tiest result.
Athletics in English schools are almost
entirely self-supporting, by the subscrip
tion method. Every student Is, aa a rule,
able to contribute his share to the funds
and can afford the outings necessary to a
fully rounded athletic development. In our
colleges and universities the method of
handling finances is entirely different. Here
the son of the poorest parents gets in on
a purely democratic equality, if he lias In
him the stuff of which athletes are made.
And there has as yet been no intimation
that the American system is not in the end
the best for Americans at least. English
methods are hardly suited for American
college athletics.
