"It I probable that any measures of
first Impnrtanre can be paused by congress
at thla session." said Penator Cummins.
"Those of us who are known as progres
Ivea will stand firmly, however, for tho
consideration of a tariff commission bill
aal the enactment of legislation that will
orpanlb a tariff bill upon what we con
tlder a satisfactory basis.
."'W will urn the adoption of a resolu
tion for the election of aenatora by direct
vole of the people, the pastas of a meas
ure providing for the valuation of the
physical property of railroads and common
carriers and an Inquiry Into the Invest
ment represented In the properties of com
non carriers, We also will urge the enact
ment of a law to limit the Issuance of
Hocks and bonds of common carriers.
"It la unlikely that many of these meas
ures will make actual progress a this ses
ilon, but all consideration given them will
be so much gained. There will be lens work
to do at another time."
The aenator made It clear that the pro
tresxive senators will not await the report

control of the Issuing of railroad stocks

Hearty AMre of
Welcome.
LONDON. Pec. Sir Thomaa Vesey
Strong, the lord mavor. and the corpora
tion of the city of Ixindnn, today gave a
luncheon at Guild hall to 750 American
rallora from the visiting fleet at Oraves
rnd and Weymouth. The bluejackets ar
rived by train at Charing Cross, headed by
Commander Sims of the Minnesota and the
officers of his staff, and accompanied
by the band of the Cold Stream guards,
which the war office had ordered out for
the occasion, marched through the streets
In the west end of the city to the ancient
hall, where so many famous guests have
been honored.
A hit crov. d assembled out?!d the a'a
tlon and, lining the streets on which traffic
had been stopied, gave the Americana,
who carried the stars and ttrlpea and their
chip's colors, a rcuHlng welcome. ,
r.lvlng at Gu 11 Hall, the vl Itors fo.med
In a quadrangle while the band played the
"Star Spangled Banner."
Sir Thomas 'received Commander Bims
and his officers In the reception hall and
brf yre luncheon was served, passed around
the dining hall greeting the guests. The
blue Jackets ere seated at long tablea in
the main hall.
At the head table was the lord mayor,
with Commander Slma at his right and
j with aldermen and uniformed officers
unn in, m me gallery the lord may
ores entertained Mrs Reld, wife of Amer
ican Ambassador Reld. and the wives of
the visiting officers. The menu was sim
ple but plentiful. Including turXey and
great barona of beef carried In with pom
pous ceremony, plum pudding and mince
pie. The dining was followed first by for
mal toasts to King George and Tre.-rtent
Taft. Sir Thomas then welcomed the sail
ors. He said It had been a privilege to re
ceive the officers of the Amertcnn fleets
yesterday and that the corporation of the
city of London was equally proud to re
ceive in the same hall today the men ot
the American navy, adding:
"I offer the heartiest welcome of Eng
land, where no one la more popular than
the men behind the gun. The American
Jackt-tar is regarded with a large share of
that affection which Is felt for our own
men."
Commander Sims Replies.
Replying, Commander Sims spoke with
enthusiasm of the friendly manner In
which the American fleet had been re
ceived In Iondon. This, he said, could not
happen In any other country, but waa
made possible by the strong ties of blood
between the two countries.
Speaking for himself he believed that If
the time ever came when the British em
pire was menaced by an external enemy
they might count upon every man, every
drop, of blood, every ship and every dollar
In their kinaVed across the sea. Chief
Boatswain's Mate 8. E. I Benson of the
battleship Minnesota replied on behalf of
the men. expressing thanks for the enter
tainment In a neat speech which tiok the
Englishmen by surprise and which was
frequently Interrupted by guests with
spontaneous cheers for the lord mayor and
the city of London.
books and examine witnesses under oath
were by no means essential.
"Testimony given under coercion," he
said. "Is too likely to become unwilling
and half-hearted. In most cases more
complete and Illuminating Information can
be secured by different methods. The of
ficials of European governments who have
accomplished most in these lines have no
such powers iind do not ask for them. I'p
to dnte, however, the board has no reason
to doubt that they can secure the neces
sary Information by present methods. After
all. If the principle Is once firmly estab
lished that protection, however necessary.
Is a favor and that the burden of proof
Is on the manufacturer to show cause why
It Is granted, the question of powers be
comes relatively unimportant."
On the question as to what use would
be mado of such findings, Mr. Emery said,
that, whether the board should report to
the president or to congress, the Influ
ence of Its Investigation Into facts would
come from the influence of unbiased and
unauppressed truth to make Itself effec
tive. Public fchoald Know Truth.
"Those who are skeptical of this result."
he said, "forget that where certain in
terests are concerned to suppress the
truth,' other Interests whether from busi
ness or political motive will be equally
eager to give it the fullest publlolty. The
trouble in the past haa been that tho facts
have not been available. Once It ia known
that they can be secured, they are bound
to have their effect on public opinion and
so on 'public policy. This, however, is ab
solutely dependent on the continuance of
such impartial studies year In and year
out."
Chalrmar. Emery concluded by sum
marizing the various different attitude
toward tariff revision, and protested
against the stand taken by those who de
nouaoo congress for revising the tariff In
five months and yet demand that a tariff
board should be ready to report on ' re
vision In the same length of time.
."It ia both Inconsistent and unfair," he
said, "to demand at on and the same
time that the tariff shall be revised on
the baais of an Impartial and scientific
Investigation of the facta, and yet be re
vised with Impulsive haste aa a political
exigency. The two demands are Irrecon
cilable and you must choose between them.
So far as we are concerned. It doe not
matter which of . these various attitudes
either you or the people prefer. . The pres
ident has given u our task to find out
the facts, and w shall not depart from
our resolve to refuse to substitute for
such facts half-formed guesses or opinions
under orders or pressure from any man,
any Interest, or any popular clamor."

SERIOUS GIVING
BY serious giving we mean doing the substantial thing the giving of durable
gifts whereby the recipient gains a permanent remembrance of advantage. This
need not mean intrinsic gain, but it does indicate a distinct solidity on the part of
the giver. For example, a furniture craftsman has taken a section of a mahogany
log and split it into two halves and then exquisitely carved it into a book block.
What in a gift, at whatever cost, shows better taste, better sense even better breed
ing, than this simple little bit of wood, genuine in every fibre? And it carries the
Miller, Stewart & Beaton Tag-Policy.
The same idea spirit,. if you please pervades this stock this store; the simple,
solid, genuine, thought the almost horror at imitation.

not pretend to be aught but what it can prove itself to be. ; ' '
