tory of the movement for a tariff board
In order to ahow how fully committed 1
am to the proposition that we ought not
to have any revision of a achedule of the
tariff without accurate Information aa to
the operation and effect of the proposed
changn. arid further to show that In this
view I have had in the paat the hearty
support not only of the regular, repub
licans, but also, and even with more em
phasis, those who 'call themselvea pro
gressive republicans. -
"Second I also wish to point 'out that
all republicana of whatever ahade are
committed to the maintenance of our
protected Industrie to the point of re
taining dutlea on Imported articles which
shall equal tbe differences in the cost of
production at borne and abroad.
"Third Except for the extra session
called only to paaa upon the reciprocity
bill, the first time that the Bixty-second
congress could consider and pass upon
tariff acbedules would be In December,
and at that time its predecessor, by con
sent of both parties, had fixed aa the
proper time at which a full report aa to
the most objectionable schedule ought to
be reported. With the money granted me
by congress I had provided a board, non
partisan, and with the same personnel as
the statutory board would have had, to
make k report not only upon wool, but
also upon cotton. ,
'Democrats Play Politics.
"Although many of the democrats had
assisted In the support of the 'statutory
tariff board bill and had advocated auch
a means of securing information In re
spect of the probable operation of the
proposed revision, the house at once be
gan to make a record for political pur
poses by passing three tariff bills, the
wool bill, the free Ust bill and the cot
ton bill. They gave no public hearing
of any; kind on either of these bills and
they presented no satisfactory informa
tion upon wlilch the effect of any of them
upon tn1, -industries involved ' could be
Judged. - Thelf investigations" may have
been sufficient to satisfy, the, conscience
of a tarlff-for-revenue man who believes
in any reduction, however great, of ex
isting duties, but for one pledged as I
am to maintain a tariff high enough to
enable existing Industries to live, the case
Is different.
"The wool bill proposed a revenue duty
of 30 per cent upon raw wool Instead of
11 cents a pound, a reduction of con
siderably more than 60 per cent of the
present duty, and an average duty of 60
per cent on woolen cloth and manufac
tures. This was avowedly a tariff for
revenue and was not drawn for the pur
pose of protecting the Industries. It
passed the house and went to the senate
where an Insurgent republican aenator
proposed a substitute in which the duty
on wool of the first class was fixed at
40 per cent, and of a second class, or
carpet wools, at 10 per cecit, and the
average percentage on the woolen manu
factures was made 60 per cent ad valorem.
It waa claimed by its author to be a
protection bill. It was never submitted
to a committee, no evidence was ever
taken In regard to it, and It waa evolved
from the Independent Investigation of a
single senator. A majority of the lnsur
genta and the democrats in the senate
compromised on a bill which made the
tax on raw wool, first class; 16 per cent;
second class, 10 per cent, and the average
duty on woolens, 66 per cent. Tbe bill,
against the vote of nearly all of the regu
lar republicans and some Insurgent re
publicans, paised the senate and was
tent to conference, where a bill was
agreed upon in which the duty was 29
per cent on raw wool, and an average
of 49 per cent n woolens. This bill bad
the effect of raising the duty on carpet
wools, aa fixed In tbe senate, 19 per cent,
and as fixed in the bouse, per cant
Here was tbe first caae presented to ma
There was nothing In the record in either
tbe house or senate from which I could
obtain any information as to the effect
of this bill upon the wool and woolen
Industry of this country. I submit that
the history of Its making shows no
principle whatever In the ' bill except
a compromise between two opposing
principles for the purpose of passing the
bill, without any ; Indication aa to Its
effect on the tndastry to which it applies.
Lower Tksa Wllaon Bill.
"This bill reduced the duty en woolens
to an average of 49 per cent, with a duty
an tbe raw-material wool of 29 per cent.
The Wllaon bill, passed la 1&94. has re
duced the duty to 60 per cent, with no
duty on the raw wool at all, a much more
favorable arrangement to the manufac
turers than In the present bill, and yet
tbe years of tbe Wilson bill were years
of disaster to the woolen manufacturers.
It may be that other causes than the
tariff contributed to the failure of woolen
mills in tbe time of tbe Wilson bill, and
It may well be that conditions in the
woolen business have changed so that it
doea not need as much protection as
then; but I had no adequate Information,
and had been furnlahed soot, upon which
I could say that the bill presented to me
was in accord with tbe republican plat
form of protection upon which I was
elected, and. to which I am .In honor
bound to square by official act and
policy. In tbe absence of such adequate
Information, and with . the prospect of
securing It In three months, , It became
my bounden duty to "withhold ' my ap
proval of the bill. What Wat the' neces
sity of such great haste In passing the
bill at an extra session called for anothes
purpose? The bill as it paased the houae
provided to should go Into effect January
1. 1913. The bill aa It patsed the senate
contained a similar provision. When the
bill went Into conferences! am Informed
that , the suggestion was made that ths
Fall Boots
late, of January 1, 1912. for ita taking ef
fect would furnish a strong argument
for delaying Its pnasage until after De
cember 1. when the tariff board could
report. The date of taking effect was
thereupon changed to October 15, 1D1L
Such cars was not taken with the free
Ust bill or ths cotton bill, both of which
were made to take effect January 1. 1912.
Schedule K 'la Too High.
"Schedule K bad been in force so long
and its peroentagea were so high In
many respects that I had not hesitated
In times past to say that It ought to bo
reduced, and to explain how It came not
to be reduced in tbe Payne bill as it
ought to have been. But It is one thing
;o know that a schedule of this sort is
too high, and It is a very different thing
in such a complicated schedule to know
upon wliat Items the reductions should
be made and how great the reductions
ought to be. If the principle to which I
am committed, and to which the party is
committed in the strong terms of the
resolutions, which I have quoted above,
was to be observed aa a policy at all,
here was the occasion for following it.
If I had allowed the wool bill to become
a law, the progress made in public
opinion towsrd a better method of re
vising the tariff would have been en
tirely loat and the policy cast to tbe
winds. '
!'Some defense is made of the bill on
the ground that the committee on ways
and means had considered It carefully In
committee for a month or more, but the
point Is that the bill they prepared is
not this bill. It is changed in ai of its
rates and maerlally changed to meet by
compromise a bill that was never in
committee at all, and the blending waa
done, as we said, with "blacksmiths
tools." The house bill was a free-trader
or at least an antlprotectlon bill; what
the -hybrid waa, who could tell? ' In view
of the enormous value- of the wool and
and woolen,. Industry which - anight be
disastrously affected by the bill, . was it
asking too much to delay the bill, under
the circumstances, for ninety days
meerly to secure accurate information?
I thought not. , Indeed, I could find no
argument which would satlafy my con
science in signing ths bill.
Free List BUI Misleading;.
"The free-list bill waa called the "farm
ers' free list," for tbe purpose of giving
an impresalon that It waa passed to com
pensate the farmers for some sort of
injury supposed to be done by tbe Cana
dian reciprocity treaty. This reason was
finally repudiated by the leader of the
democracy on the floor of the house of
representatives, and is certainly not true.
There was nothing in the Canadian reci
procity btll that required any compensa
tion to tbe farmers, for In a very short
period after actual operation it will ap
pear that they, as well as everybody else,
have been Improved In condition by our
larger trade with Canada. But tbe bill
was framed and came to me in a form
calculated to mislead as to Its affect. In
the first olauss all agricultural imple
ments were declared to be free, and a
great many were named. Tbese same
implements were named in the - Payne
bill, and wers mads free la that bill from
any country which pet mined our agri
cultural implements to enter It without
duty. This opened., to England ths mar
ket of tbs United- States for agricultural
Implements. As -a matter of fact, tbe
price of agrtpuliural implements In Amer
ica Is cheaper, as shown by a report of
the bureau of trade relations of the Btate
department, to ths American farmers than
to any farmers In ths world. England is
the one country that exports agricultural
Implements to any great extent, and so
successful Is the competition against It
in this country of American agricultural
Implements that practically very few
have come In from England. This first
clause, therefore, of the free-list bill of
fers no boon to the farmers at all, al
though apparently drawn for tbe purpose
of Inducing them to think so. It does
contain some very general words at ths
close of tbe specially mentioned articles
which by Interpretation might be made to
Include 160 different articles used on the
farm, but used In other vocations also.
And these articles tbe hammers, the
tools, the cutlery, and the machinery of
various kinds are now dutiable under
the metal system. To admit them under
this clause would be to destroy entirely
the symmetry of the metal schedule and
produce such a confusion as seriously to
interfere with the administration of tbe
tariff act.
Barbed Wire) Section Toe Wide.
"Another clause provides for ths admis
sion of barbed wire fencing free, and then
all wire and other material which could
be used for fencing, and Includes wire
rods and wire rope. To let In barbed wire
fencing alone would be unimportant to
producera, but the framing of the amend,
tng clause la auch that if it were to go
into law It would have a serious effect
upon the metal schedule and would ut
terly destroy the principle which was fol
lowed In Its framing and would make tree
of duty some of the most highly wrought
articles under the metal schedule not
used by" farmers at all. Then there Is a
clause admitting jute and cotton bagging
tree, and materials from which made,
which would allow the common cotton
cloth to corns In free for any purpose, al
though under the cotton schedule, even as
proposed to be amended by this congress,
cotton cloth la to psy a certain amount of
duty. The bill also puts boots and shoes
of all kinds on the free list It did not
put on the free list, except some kinds of
leather, the materials which wsnt Into
shoes. In other words, it put on the free
list the finished product and continued
the tax on raw materials. This would be
such a burden to our manufacturers that
Its Injustice must apreal to every one
The fact Is that under the Dlngiey bill
Imported shoes were taxed 26 per cent ad
valorem, while In the Payne bill the duty
was reduced from 25 per cent to 10 per
cent, the duty on hides wss reduced from
16 per cent to nothing, snd the duty on
lesther wss reduced to 6 per cent. No
evidence wss tsken as to what effect this
putting of shoes on the free list would
have on the very highly Important shoe
Industry of the country, and as It vlolsted
the first principles of Justice In a tsrlff.
nsmely. of putting the finished product
on the free list and taxing the materials
It did not and could not commend Itself to
one who was pledged to the support of a
moderate proteptlve tariff.
Meat and Floor.
"Finally, the free list has two clauses
affecting meat and flour. Aa they went
through the house they put meat on the
free list snd flour on tbe free list. In
the senate, however, an amendment was
put on limiting the operation of these
two clauses to Imports from those eoun
tries with which we have a reciprocal
relation and which admit certain agricul
tural products of ours free. Ths limita
tion made Canada the only country which
would be affected by the provisions of
the clause. Now, in our negotiations
with Canada for reciprocity we attempted
to secure free meat and free flour. Can
ada would not consent to this because
she feared the effect of our competition
with her meat and flour. This showed
that importations of meat and flour from
Canada without duty would not have any
effect to lower the price lu thla country
oi either In normal times. But this free
list bill was giving to Canada something
for nothing. This congress at the close
of the act approving ths Canadian rec
iprocity agreement directed me to con
tinue negotiations and expand its terms,
and yet in these provisions it proposed
to deprive me of using the concessions
of fre meat and free flour to secure con
cessions from Canada. Thus the bill was
so loosely drawn, it was drawn on such
a wrong principle and with so little In
formation and It purported to do so
many things which It did not do. that
I bad no hesitation In vetoing It.
Cotton Bill Xot Protection.
"Finally the cotton bill came to me.
This bill differed from the others in
being a bill for which the democrats
alone, and not the insurgent republicans,
were responsible, it had passed the
house on the report of tbe wajs and
means committee made without the tak
ing of any evidence of persons Interested
In the manufacture or anyone else; It had
completely changed the method of das
sifylng cottons, classifying them accord
ing to the threads In the yarn Instead of
by the threads of the piece and the spe
clfic duty upon the square yard, as in
the present bill. This was a most im
portant change and it had been adopted
ii:r an iniormai communication in writ
ing with the bureau of -standards and
after an adverse report by the treasury
experts. The bill was adopted avowedly
as a free trade bill by the house. It
came to the senate and was passed in
tne lorm in which it passed the house,
except that certain amendments wer
added. One was an amendment cutting
down the metal schedule by a sweeping
reduction of 30 per cent, and thA th.
was an amendment of . the chemir.i
schedule with a purported reduction ad
valorem of 25 per cent. So hastily was
the bill thrown together, so little atten
tlon was paid to the consideration of It
In the senate, especially In the chemical
schedule, that the most ludicrous results
were received, in tbe first nlace. aithn,,i,h
the amendments radically changed the
meiai ana chemical schedules, no change
" ue wit, wntch stUl read
An act to reduce duties on cotton man
ufactures." An amendment was Intro
duced In order to make certain that In
the cotton and chemical schedules there
must s. reauctlon of all rates to not
more than 30 per cent ad valorem, but
It was so placed In the act that h i,.
language it could only apply to goods
already in the custom house, upon which
duty had not been paid. The calculations
u,r wmcn me. specino duties In the chem
ical schedule were transmitted into ad
valorem rates and then reduced 26 per
cent were exceedingly faulty. The senator
who propostd ths reductions said that
he had aecured the services of a statisti
cian at the Treasury department, who
..aa oone mo work as he told him to
do it. and that that was all he knew
about It
Why Wllllama Objected.
"Senator Williams, a democratic mem-
ber of the committee on finance of tbe
senate, objected to this method of adopt
ing a most important schedule. The
chemical schedule Is the first schedule In
the list It has eighty-five Items, and of
these sixty-slx have specific duties, it
affects many millions of Imports. Nev
ertheless, the bill went through, and it
went back to the house and was submit
ted to two days" examlnalon by the wava
and means committee of that body.
Ihen it passed the bouse under a rule
that permitted no-amendments whatever.
I had the bill examined by experts, es
pecially with respect to the chemical
schedule, and even in the very short time
I had I found the greatest confusion pro
duced by the amendment Upon a num
ber of the articles tbe reduction was
greatly' more than the proposed 26 per
cent, reaching in some esses 76 and iflo
per cent, and on other articles, instead of
being a decrease, there was an increase
all ths way from S to 100 per cent The
bill waa supposed to be a concession to
the North Carolina cotton interests, and
te be Intended to cheapen the bleaching,
dyeing and coloring materials needed In
that business. Tbe very comical effect
of tbe bill as amended was that Instead
of reducing the duty on bleaching powder
26 per cent, it Increased It 40 per cent
But even a more serious : defect in the
bill wss In those changes affecting the
alcolhollo compounds contained in four or
five Items, In respect to which In tbe
Payne bill and In all previous tariff bills,
In order to prevent the use of these
items to Import alcohol at a small duty,
compensatory duties had . been imposed
of about 40 cents a pound, or U 60 a
gallon. Under the provisions of ths new
bill, those alcoholic compounds and arti
cles containing alcohol wpuld come In at
a duty, making the tax on the alcohol
from I to 10 cents a gallon, while the internal-revenue
tax on alcohol in this
country at $1.10 per proof gallon, and the
duty on it as an import is $2 60 a gallon.
The opportunities for the Introduction of
chesp alcohol and the danger of evasion,
or the breaking down of the inte.-nal-revenue
law by auch a change in the
chemical schedule, I need hardly elab
orate. The bill was Impossible and of
course I vetoed it. There was in ths
passage of the bill, in the amendments,
and in tbs general treatment an Indica
tion that ths support of the bill was
based rather on a deaire to make a
political record In favor of lower duties
than upon a serious proposal to change
the law. At least this Is the only explana
tion that can be offered of the careless.
Inartificial and altogether unsatisfactory
character of the three bills.
For Redaction with Protection.
"I have gone Into thla mattiir at con
siderable detail in order that my position
with respect to these bills and the general
treatment of the tariff may be under
stood. 1 am In favor of ths reduction of
the tariff wherever It can be done and
till give a living measure of protection
to those Industrie of the country that
need It. Put I Insist thst we hsve resched
now a point In the history of tsrlff mak
ing who everyone ought to realise that
the tariff should not be changed snd busi
ness disturbed, except upon information
which shall enable us to asa bills that
will disturb It least. Our whole business
system rests upon the protective tariff
basis. The real hope of men who are In
favor of lowering duties I to pursue the
policy of securing accurate Information
to keep the tariff rates down as low as
possible consistent with the life of the
business protected. The natural opera
tion of the tariff under those oondltlons
and American Ingenuity la to continue to
reduce the cost. of production, and that In
Itself will secure. If we adheie to the
policy, a reduction of the tsrlff rates
from time to lime; but to cut them now
'with blacksmith's tools,' Is to Invite In
the next two or four years, a revulsion
of feeling, snd then a recurrence of higher
rates and the old eystem of high tariffs.
Thla I would deprecate, and so far as I
can with the powers given me by the
constitution, I propose to stop such' a
movement and to secure a reduction In
accordance with the principles of the
republican platform, and on Information
accurate and Impartial. If that policy is
not approved by the electorate.' then, of
course, those of us who are now in office
must give way to men who will carry
out a different policy; but while we are
In office our position ought clearly to be
understood. We follow this policy not
only because we are pledged to It. but
because we believe It right, because we
believe that a full dlscunslon and a clear
perception on the part of the people will
convince them ultimately to approve and
adopt It."

Missouri Will Not
Drop Case Against
Harvester Combine
JEFFERSON CITY. Mo.. Sept. 21.-At
the request of the department of Jus
tice, Attorney General Major mailed to
Washington today a copy of his state
ment, brief and argument In the state s
ouster suit against the International
Harvester company. The company has
been found guilty of violating the Mis
souri anti-trust law by a commissioner
who heard the evidence and the case
was submitted to the supreme court last
April.
"The proposed reorganisation of the
International Harvester company, to
conform to recent interpretations of the
Sherman anti-trust law will not affect
the Missouri case," said the attorney
general. "The harvester company was
organized in the same manner as the
Standard Oil company of New Jersey and
its organization cannot stand In the face
of the decision of the supreme court of
the United States In that case.
"The ouster suit was brought under
the common law and the Missouri antt
trust law which are broader than the
Sherman law."
Young Kinney Gets
