TWO BIG MEN
IN THEJENATE
Pennsylvania Representatives
Take a Prominent Part in
Framing Tariff Measure
PENROSE IS TO BE PROMOTED
Mantle of Leadership to Descend From
Aldrich Interesting Pen Picture of
One of the Most Notable and Hard
est Workina Men in the Country
Service.
Recent happenings in the United
States Senate, during the progress or
the work of frnming the new tariff
measure, have demonstrated beyond
oil dispute that Fennsylvnnla Is the
"one great state in the galaxy of
states" and have given Tennsylva
nlans, great and small, real cause for
pride in their representatives In the
Senate.
This Important work the Senate la
now engaged on contemplates a revi
sion of the duties on Imports, the tlx
ing of the necessary burdens of taxa
tion to provide for the expenses of
the national government and the guar
anteeing of equal and exact protection
to American labor and American cap
ital. During most of the week of Slay
17 the senators from Pennsylvania,
Boies Penrose ana t.eorge i. .
held the front of the senatorial stage.
The two distinguished statesmen were
more conspicuous, probably, than were
nny other two members of the great
and distinguished body. Senator Oli
ver rather startled his colleagues with
his comprehensive knowledge of tho
manufacturing Interests of Pennsylva
nia. Mr. Oliver stood, a mental ath
lete, against the proposition to reduce
the tariff on certain materials. He
supplied the Senate with information
which was overwhelming, and his gen
eral knowledge of the needs of the
manufacturers and of the world of la
bor generally, lighted the way in the
Senate for Intelligent and conservative
action. Mr. Oliver was kept upon his
feet for hours, answering those who
seemed thirsty for the information
which they got from Mr. Oliver, and
upon every side he was congratulated
upon his successful defense of the sit-
its members, declared Senator Aldrich
tho commanding figure in that Impor
tant body, to be both Its Napoleon and
its nismnrck, and then added this:
"Reasoning from known senatorial
habits most of the members of tho
Senate expect tho mantle of Aldrich,
if It does not fall at once, to be soon
worn on the shoulders of Senator Pen
rose, lie Is in the direct line of pro
motion on the finance committee. Un
der the senatorial hnnit of rigid regu
larity that ranJt stands as a certainty.
Next, If not equal to tho committee on
appropriations in Influence on practical
politics, is the postofilce committee,
which passes on all presidential post
masterships and on all expenditures for
the greatest business department of
the government. Other Important com
mittee assignments, well chosen and
well maintained by records of hard
work and Intelligent service, add to a
remarkable equipment, as the senate
udges such merits.
Prestige at home stands high
among the assets of senatorial leader
ship. Penrose Is unchallenged chief
of the strongest and most compact
state organization within the Jurisdic
tion of the Republican party; in fact.
the most solid state machine in Amer
ica, rsehind him, therefore. Is the most
nearly Indestructible home support of
which nny senator can boast.
If there Is a definition of the Ten-
rose personality at once concentrated
and comprehensive, it Is that his Is an
essentially masculine character. It Is
definition which explains both the
unbroken progress of his career and
the misunderstandings about him.
Men like and follow, even obey him,
because he has the man virtues of
telling the truth, keeping his word,
hating humbug and uncomplainingly
performing his duty; of not bragging
or posing, gossiping or gouging, of not
drawing a battle ax to strike a mos
quito or employing a poison bottle to
weaken an enemy. One quality he has
which is positively fascinating In
these days of smnll-souled sophistica
tion. It Is a man-bashfulness, which is
neither diffidence nor nervousness, hut
more allied Jo a healthy boy's aver
sion to bluster, mushlness and artful
ness. To name so strange a word as
bnshf illness among the attributes of
the arch-politician and hardy boss will
be to raise a laugh and provoke a
sneer in the halls of the super-right
eous. The trutn is so. nowever, aim
It Is distinctly charming it Is eo
rare."

Senatorial custom provides thnt a new
member shall sit small during his flret
session, but the Senate wanted Infor
mation which it seemed only Mr. Oli
ver could give, and the ancient cus
tom yielded to the exigencies of the
situation, and at a bound Mr. uiimt
became one of the foremost members
of this great law-making body.
Ever since the upper house ot Lon-
gress starteu in on me n- "
measure, Senator Penrose has been
constantly in the limelight. He, prob
ably better than any other member of
the Senate, understands the tariff
question. He is an active member and
well up on the list of the finance com
mittee which has the measure in
charge. For years he has been an in
telligent student of the tariff and ne
yields to no one in his devotion to the
best interests of his state and the na
tion. Senator Penrose stands firni'y
and with excellent purpose for equal
and exact Justice for both capital and
labor In the construction or tne pro
posed tariff legislation, and his elo
quent voice has been constantly raised
in the defense of the people as a
whole. While Senator Oliver starred
in a brilliant Inning early last week.
Senator Penrose challenged the admi
ration of the whole country the latter
nart of the week with a masterly
speech advocating a duty of at least
0 per cent on crude oil. Senntor l'en-
rose declared that without tariff the
oil market would shift to Mexico and
in a most entertaining way gave an
array of interesting facts and figures
to prove his contention. Among other
things Senntor Penrose said:
The independent oil producers ol
Pennsylvania insist that free oil would
transfer the market for crude petn
leum from this country to Mexico and
they are right. In order to protect
them from Mexican shipments 1 am
in favor of imposing a duty of at least
50 per cent on Importations or the
crude product. Oil In this country Is
selling low enough now. What chance
would the producers of the United
States have against oil produced by
the cheap labor of Mexico? In that
country is a vast oil field, which only
awaits the capital to develop It. With
our markets thrown open to free oil
shipments this capital will be forth
coming and It will no longer be neces'
sarv for the Standard to pay even
moderate prices for oil in this conn
try.
"The destruction of the oil Indus
try would mean far more than the
losses of the producers. In the produc
tion of oil in the United States more
than iiOO.OOP men are regularly em
ployed. Oomtlng five persons to each
family this means that 2,r00,000 per
sons are directly interested in the oil
business as a means of livelihood.
About 08 per cent of these half mil
lion men are Americans. They earn
high wages, they live well, and they
are entitled to fair treatment from
Congress.
"Pennsylvania has about 45,000 oil
wells, which last year yielded over
116.000.000 worth of oil. The total
value of the oil-producing property in
Pennsylvania Is over $SO,000,000. There
. .v.
was paid to tne larmers oi me
stone state In oil royalties last year
about 12.000,000. There Is invested In
Independent oil refineries In Pennf"-'
vanla over J.',000,000.
"The conditions In Mexico are such
that free oil would be certain to prove
disastrous to the oil-producing indus
try of this country. The Mexican oil
fields embrace a territory 800 miles
long and 100 miles wide. The largest
oil well In the history of the world was
struck in Mexico last year. In forty
days it produced 5,000,000 barrels. It
is still llowiug 10,000 barrels a day,
and is uncontrollable. This oil can be
produced for about 20 cents a barrel."

The plans have been so formulated that
two teams of small boys are houud to win.
It will be Interesting to see If the little lads
