WASHINGTON. Jan. S-Tb tariff
'vision fight opened In this houaa today
.Than consideration of the metal tariff
bill xvaa taken up aa the first of the
nnoasur winch the democratic leaders
will attempt to fore through congress.
Attacked by the republican aide as a de
parture from democratic pledgee and as
likely to be destructive to American labor
,and induatry. the bill went through five
bourn of stormy debate, which will be re
sumed tomorrow.
1 Replying to charges that the democrats
: had abandoned the farmer by not putting
agricultural machinery on the free list in
the bill. Chairman Underwood of the ways
and means committee retorted that It was
not a part of the metal schedule of the
tariff.
VWe have put In here vry item re
flating to the metal schedule." said Mr.
I'nderwood. "It haa been charged that
this bill will let cheap Chines plr Iron
In in large quantities on the Pacific coast
The gentleman who make such charge
ought to know that the matter of freight
' inerges alone is enough to keep Iron and
let eel out of the Mississippi valley and
all that great territory where the Ameri
can produces- has a natural monopoly.
rreleetlea JTet Needed.
"The Iron and Keel Industry does not
need any protection. We have put these
rate just a low a we can and still se
cure fair amount of revenue -for the
upport of the government. We do not
try to protect the profits of the ateel man
ufacturers any more than we would try
to protect the profits of the banker, the
baker or the grocer."
Rrureaeatallv Daltell, republican, of
'Pennsylvania, representing' the repuhDcan
minority on the ways and mean com
mittee, demanded of the democrat why
. they bad not first Introduced the wool
revision bill. The metal schedule, he said,
was cut to the oca la the Psyae-Aldrlch
law of JSCS.' while the deaeeerats bad a
" tared that thai wool tariff was the roost
unreasonable of all In the tariff cod of
the ceunUT. ,
Are yeu strain to encounter tne at
onlrm of tb peerless leader." be de
manded, "or It It not a fact that the ras
nlflcent report, of the tariff board has
convicted yon of Insincerity T"
'Mr. Dal sell paid his compliments to an
cither democratic leader, Governor Wood
row - Wilson. He quoted an article of
Governor Wilson's which credited the ma
, Jorlty member of the ways and mean
' 'committee of the keuss with power to
control the majority of all tariff bill and
the determination of amendment It any
would be permitted In consideration of
tha bill.
"That was written by tha then presi
dent of Princeton university." .ha said.
That la what be'thought at the time
he wrote It What be thinks about tt
now I do not know, since the gentleman
in the meantime has become distinguished
as th most expert lightning change artist
who ever by his antlca contributed to the
'joy of political vaudevUle." v
Palmer SEx plains Bill.
A crowded house listened for two hours
to the opening speech of Representative
, Palmer of Pennsylvania, who explained
the Mil on behalf ot the majority mem
bers of th ways and mean committee.
Mr. Palmer sal dtne measure would stim
ulate competition by permitting slight
Increase In Imports of metals produced
'and would thereby somewhat lower
price. He denied It would have any
effect on wages, or upon established In
dustrie in th United State.
