WASHINGTON, July 30.-Charging that
democratic leader have broken their
tariff promises mado to the working peo
ple of Now England before the list na
tional election, Senator George P. Mc
Lean of Conneotlcut assailed the Un-
derwood-Blmmons bill In the senate today.
Recounting the campaign In Connecticut
directed particularly ngalnst Representa
tive Ebenczcr Hill of the ways and means
committee, Senator McLean quoted from
speeches made by Majority Leader Un
derwood, Secretary of Commerce Bed
field, Representative Rcllly and Governor
8. E. llnldwln, whom he quoted as as
suring the mill workers that the demo
crats tariff would look after the dif
ferences In cost ot production here and
abroad.
Try to Compromise.
"The protection democrats have tried
to compromlso with the 'free trade demo
crats, and, of course, this Is Impossible."
Sonator McLean continued, "You cannJt
compromise with arithmetic or the Com
pass. You are either there or you aro
not there. If 20 per cent did not Protect
then 20 per cent will not protect now.
My complaint Is that the democratic party
has broken Its sacred promlso to the peo
ple of Connecticut. This I have shown
from the Hps of those democrats who
alone had authority to do tho promising.
If adequate protection Is found In any
rate contained In this bill, It Is there by
accident only.
"This bill has been described as a glar
ing examplo ot Invisible and Inaudible
government. It Is not the way In which
conclusions ot the committee have been
reached; It Is the effect of these conclu
sions that the people of Connecticut are
afraid of. This bill may be an example
of Invisible, as the senator from Iowa so
aptly added the other day, Inaudible gov
ernment, but It is also a sample of mi
nority government, In that complete pro
mises of that minority to the people of
Connecticut that I object to."
Stone Denunncra Ilcpnbllcans.
Shaking a clenched fist at republican
senators Senator Stone today charged
during the tariff debate that every re
publican speech he had heard had been
delivered with the deliberate attempt to
crente a panic.
Tho Missouri senator spoke In reply to
Senator McLean. He declared tt appeared
to him that the republicans through their
speeches were sending messages to the
country with a design of creating fear
and distrust.
Senator Clark of Wyoming challenged
Mr. Stone's statement and asserted that
If any distrust Were being engendered It
was through statements by President
Wilson, Secretary Bedtleld and Secretary
McAdoo.
Senator Stono replied with a oharge of
n conspiracy among republican senators
to create publlo distrust.
"Name the senators." demanded Sen
ator Clark,
"Every republican I have heard speak,"
said Senator Stone, He finally named
the Wyoming senator himself.
"I huvo not delivered a speech." re
torted Senator Clark,
Senator Stone read mercantile .agency
reports showing good business conditions.
Senator Penrose declared that not a tex
tile Industry In Pennsylvania cast of tho
Susquehanna river was running three
days a week.

his pocket," delivering the mall him
self because he could not engage the ser
vices of a carrier, down through the
fifty-nine years In which twenty-four
postmasters served.
General Roper arrived In Omaha early
In the morning. He waa taken to the
Omaha club for breakfast. At the table
with him were Mayor Dahlman. Luther
Drake, Victor Rosewater, Ward Burgess,
II. K. Newbranch, John A. McShane,
Senator Norrls Brown, Casper E. Yost,
Gurdon W. Wattles, W. II. Duchols, W.
F. Daxter, J. I. Woodward and J. M.
Guild.
General Roper Is very democratic and
thoroughly enjoyed the affability at the
breakfast table. Ho told some of his hosts
that "it was a good thing for Omaha to
have a republican postmaster under a
democratic administration." 'You see,"
said he, "such a situation keeps him at
the height of his ability, giving the great
est efficiency while waiting between
trenths for somo mall to bring his dis
charge." It was a Joke. From what Gen-
eial Roper had to say It was gleamed
tl.at Omaha's present postmaster "stands
In pretty good with the department.
Leave, for Dtmver.
Qeneral Roper left Omaha at 3 o'clock
yesterday afternoon for Denver, where he
will speak today before the sixteenth an
nual convention of the National Associa
tion of Postmasters of the First Class.
From Denver he will make a trip through
some of the coast cities and take a short
trip through the Yellowstone National
park.
The first assistant postmaster genera)
Is a very busy mun. One ot his duties Is
to sign papers tor the changes ot some
tl.lrty to fifty postmasters ot the fourth
class every day. He says that throush
death and local political strife, as well as
resignations there are that many post
masterships shanglng hands every day.
Compliments Curriers.
At 11:15 In the evening Mr. Roper
addressed some 100 employes of the post
office. He complimented the men on
their work and said when men such aa
employed by the government respond to
the call ot the people as they do a gen
eral Is but a small matter.
He dwelt at some length on the 'work
accomplished by the men "down the
line," as he termed them. He spoke very
enthusiastically of the' parcel post, saying
It had a brilliant future and would grow
until In time It would be second to non
