SATISFACTORY
TARIFFSYSTEM
Senator Penrose Makes Predic
tion Concerning Final Out
come of Special Session
PENROSE ALWAYS ON GUARD
Close of Arduous Session Will 8ee
Senior 8entor Off In Search of
Recreation In Western Wilds Tariff
Teachings That Should Not Be Lost
Sight of.
Advices from Washington are to the
effect that Senator Boles Penrose pre
dicts that the new tariff law when
finally framed, adopted by both
branches of Congress and signed by
the President, will provide the most
satisfactory tariff system ever es
tablished in this country. Senator
Penrose ia in position to know what
he is talking about. As a member of
the Senate Finance committee and a
conferee, he has been able to prevent
the adoption of severe reductions in
the Iron and steel, chemical and other
schedules with which Pennsylvania's
tremendous Industrial interests are
concerned. That his great work In
this direction is appreciated, is amply
shown by the strong statements of
commendation that have been re
ceived by him from members of the
Pennsylvania delegation in Congress
and from representatives of labor and
capital In the Keystone State.
Owing to the complexity of Penn
sylvania's Industries the revision of
the tariff schedules brought an Im
mense volume of work to members of
the Pennsylvania delegation. As Sen
ator Penrose recently remarked, there
Is hardly a page of the Payne bill that
does not contain a rote in which this
Commonwealth Is directly Interested.
The Pennsylvania Congressmen have
been In receipt of thousands of letters,
briefs and other communications on
both sides of the tariff question. The
duties of Senator Penrose ' were
peculiarly exacting. As a member of
the Finance committee the appeals
for assistance that reached him came
not only from Pennsylvania but from
the representatives of every Industry
In the Tnited States.
In a large room adjoining Senator
Penrose's office are long rows of cases
which contain, classified and indexed,
the communications he received rela
tive to the revision of the tariff rates.
The mails brought him valuable com
pilations of facts relative to the in
dustrial Interests of this State. Mr.
Penrose received the tariff argument
of every manufacturer In the Key
stone State with a detailed statement
of the duty desired. Letters from
Pennsylvania farmers urging him to
vote for the retention of the Dingley
duty of 15 per cent ad valorem on
hides were filed with the printed
briefs of the tanners and shoe and
leather manufacturers presenting
arguments In support of their demand
for free hides. Every scrap of paper
bearing upon the tariff bill was filed.
The arguments thus presented were
briefed and submitted to the Finance
committee and in some instances to
the Senate, in which body considers?
tlon of the measure required the
almost constant attendance of Sena
tors Penrose and Oliver as hardly a
day passed during the time the bill
was being discussed In the Upper
House that a schedule affecting a
Pennsylvania Industry was not taken
up.
As the situation now presents Itself,
petroleum, hides and Iron ore are
likely to be found on the free list,
while coal will be protected by a duty
of 40 cents a ton and lumber by $1.25
per thousand, this figure being a
quarter lower than the rate fixed by
the Senate and a quarter higher than
the House rate.
At the dinner given by President
Taft to the Republican members of
the Conference committee and some
of his Cabinet advisers, Chairman
Sereno K. Payne, of the Ways and
Means committee, advanced the claim
that Pennsylvania's Interests were
being too well protected, but Senator
Penrose showed the President con
clusively that the State was not being
given a tithe more protection than
was needed to preserve Its industries.
For a time at that dinner this State's
Industries became the pivot of all the
discussion and the defense put up by
Senator Penrose and Representative
John Dalzell was a warm one. The
result appears to be that Pennsylvania
came out practically unscathed.
Despite the vital Interest of Penn
sylvania in tariff legislation Senator
Penrose Is the only senator from the
Keystone State within this generation
who has served as a member of a
Conference committee in charge of a
Tariff bill. When the McKlnley bill
was enacted this Commonwealth was
represented in the Senate by J. Don
ald Cameron and Mathew Stanley
Quay, neither of whom was a mem
ber of the Finance committee, and
who, therefore, were not in line for
appointment as conferees. Quay and
Penrose were the Pennsylvania sena
tors at the time of the passage of tha
Dingley bill and both had other com
mittee appointments. Owing to his
familiarity with tariff legislation and
the industrial conditions In this State,
Senator Penrose during his second
term was appointed a member of the
Finance committee and now ranks
third as a member of that bodr. only
Chairman Aldricii acid oei.utur bur
rows, of Michigan, preceding him. His
selection as a conferee was due to
his effective work in the preparation
of the bill and to forcible advocacy
of Its provisions upon the floor of the
Senate.
Senator Penrose upon the adjourn
ment of Congress will go to Phila
delphia for a few days before start
ing for Montana. He will be ac
companied by his brother, Dr. Charles
Penrose, and they will spend probably
six weeks In the Lewis and Clark
forest reserve and the Flatbush river
country In Northern Montana. Tbey
will go after bear, deer and other big
game, and fish for trout. Senator Pen
rose declares that despite the Intense
heat prevailing In Washington this
season and the strain nf the Bpeclal
session of Congress, he Is In excellent
health. AH that he required, he added,
was a vacation In the mountains to
make him feel as good as ever. Sena
tor Oliver will go to his summer home
in Cobourg, Canada, upon the adjourn
ment of Congress and he expects to
remain there until late in September.
The Altoona Gaiette quite wisely
remarks thnt In these days when al
most every publication one picks up
contains a ning at the protective
tariff, either at the principle or at
the measure Congress has been labor
ing over. It Is well for us to recall
and remember a few things we nil
know. No Intelligent person will con
tend that Americans can pay the pre
vailing rate of labor now paid In thU
country and manufacture goods If tin
tariff Is lowered a point where cheap
foreign products can be unloadod
here. The tariff was wisely creatod
fifty years ago or more to build up
the greatest manufacturing fabric in
the world. The advantages offered
by that policy have brought million
of foreigners here because wages and
conditions were vastly better. The
tariff alone made them so. Would
foreigners come here If conditions
were no better than they are in
Europe!
Continuing, the Gaietto says: "No
manufacturer of goods in this country
could live and pay the high wages he
pays If there was no barrier against
the foreign manufacturer paying one
third or one-half the rate of wages
paid In this country and shipping his
product here. He could undersell the
home manufacturer, drive him out of
the business or force him to reduce
the wages nf his help to the condition
of the cheap labor he would have to
compete with. These facts are so
plain that a school boy can under
stand them.
"And here Is where the western
senators who profess to represent the
farmers have made their mistake.
Ninety odd per cent of all thnt the
farmer produces Is bought and con
sumed In this country. The free entry
of European and tropical goods made
with cheap labor would force home
manufacturers to cut wages 50 pi r
cent, reduce the ability of the wage
earners to buy farm products and
what would be the effect on the prices
and consumption of what the farmer
has to sell? It does not require the
expert knowledge or understanding of
a United States senator to figure this
out. The policy that has built up the
greatest manufacturing Industry in
the world, that pays the highest
wages, thnt has made the American
wage worker and the farmer the most
prosperous In all the world, Is a good
policy to tie to."
To th King's Tasts.
We learn In "leaves From the Jour
nal of Sir George Smart" that when
Sir George, who wns chorister at the
Chapel Itoynl, arranged the musical
programme at the opculng of the new
London bridge In 1831 his chief at
traction was a glee party.
Immediately after the glee party bad
sung "God Save the King" In the tent
In which the king and queen were seat
ed two unknown persons in costume,
a mon and his wife, stepped forward,
and to Sir George's Infinite disgust the
man plnyed "God Save the King" with
his knuckles on his chin, aecompnnled
by his wife's voice.
The king called Sir George to him
and asked who they were. 8lr George
by that time knew the name nf the
performers ond gave It, adding that
he was sorry they had Intruded with
out permission,
"Oh, no Intrusion!" said the king.
"It was chormlng. Tell them to per
forin again."
So Sir George bad to tell the per
formers that their number was en
rored by royal command, nnd to tbelr
great delight and to the chagrin of Sir
George tbey repeated It.

"When I was young," snld a lawyer,
"my liest client was a wealthy old

about her acquaintances. One morn

she vilified one of her neighbors,

"By way of changing the subject
I proposed to rend to her from . a
volume of lectures I hnd happened to
bring with me. She assented. I start
ed at random nnd when too late dls
coveied that I was In the middle of a
lecture on the government of the

"I wns afraid she would think I bad
selected It to admonish her, yet I
dared not stop for fear of seeming to
make the offense more pointed. So on
I read to the end, pretty sure that my
rending would cost me a client worth
two hundred n year to me. But when
I ended she snld:

It Is seldom that ministers compete
with one another to tell stories that

upon this occasion the Rev. Dr. Dana,
pastor of the Wnlimt Street Presby

"There wns a physician whose absent-mindedness
was so marked thnt
It often caused queer conipllcntlons,"

A Woman's Oath.
"Do I believe a woman under

many big raBes. "Well," and there
was a twinkle In the judicial eye,
"I'll toll you what I know about wo
men In that connection and perhaps
you can figure It out for yourBelt.
If a woman likes a lowyer or the
Judge or the defendant at the bar
or any one who happens to be related
to him, she will swear to anything
that she thinks will help him win his
case. Not purposely, certainly, but
that's the peculiar kink In a woman's
mind. Whatever she wants to be

believes It to be true, and the same
