TARIFF RECORD IS AIM rvn?nued TT"tn rirst Pae. peeled to deliver carefully - prepared speeches Justifying the heavy reduction and pointing out why the Payne-Aldrlch rates were unjust. It will be their pur p.e to educate the public on this sub ect. and to educate on every phase of It. so that by the time the vote la taken the Democratic attitude will be well understood. Appealing, aa it will, to a vast majority of statea that are not deeply Interested either In woolgrrowlng or woolen manufacture, the Democrats. if they be clever, will be able to Justuy their action In thlei respect at least. Other textile schedulea will come up In order, and then the waya and means committee will turn Its attention to those schedules which have proved unpopular wtth the masses of the people. In every case, before a vote Is taken, the cam paign of education, through the medium of s;eechce on the floor of the House, will be followed, ana the reaeons Justir lnir reductions in existing rates will be set forth In gra detail. For It Is on their record on the tariff that the Demo crats are relying chiefly for atrength in their next campaign. Tl.a til.in seems to be to put through tariff bills, schedule by schedule, aa rapidly as la consistent with tlie Idea of education, allowing ample time for the full exploitation of each measure be fore l vote Is taken, but never allowing the debate to drag. In this way tlie Senate will soon be swamped fltn tariff bills, for there Is to be limited debate In ti e Democratic House, as there wae tn the Republican House, while the Senate will still proceed under the old rule of unlimited debate. The House alwaye legislatea faster than tue senate " thla account, and it will do so during the coming Summer. Senate Will Take- Its Time. At thta early day no one can say how much tariff legislation can paea the Senate during the special acseion. The probabilities are that a number of the lemocratlc bills, especially the wool schedule and cotton schedule, could get a majority vote In the Senate If a time for taking a vote could be reached, and possibly other House measure could be puseed under the same circumstances, but it Is recoenlxed t!t every tariff measure passed by the House, beginning with Canadian reciprocity bill, is going to be stubbornly resisted in the Sen- te. usually by a determined minority. This situation Is fully realixed by the House leaders, but they will carry through their programme just the ume. and send over to the Senate Just as many tariff bills as they believe It expeditious and wrse to pass at this time. Thus, regardless of what action ih. .senate may take, they will get the credit for havlnic established the post. tlon of the Democratic pany. 11 ina bills nasa the Senate and become laws. they will be Democratic bills, origin ated by a Democratic House. If they fall to pass the Senate, they will atlll be Democratic bills that could have be come lawa In some rm or other had the Senate and President been Demo cratic Kxtravaganre Will He Sought. While the ways and means commit tee Is wrestling with the tariff, the special House committees to Investi gate the Government departments will be at work and. If they be aa dlilgent f.. ' I ' ' sre Charlea G. Gates. aa they are supposed to be. will turn up a vast amount of alleged extrava gance on the part of the Iteptibllcan Congresses and Republican Adminis trations. These committees are to work Incessantly anir are to report to the House. The principal object of their Investigations Is to make disclos ures that will prove Injurious or em barrassing to the Republicans In the next campaign, and the actual bene ficial results of their work will not be come apparent until the regular appro priation bills are framed next 'Winter and the extravagances eliminated. Some of these committees may be able to report during the special session: others probably will not be ready to report until the regular session. The Iemocrata figure that they have nothing to lose and everything to Kaln out of the special session. It enables them to establish their tariff record; It affords them an extra nine months to conduct their probe Into the Govern ment service, and really gives them nine working months, in addition to what they would have had ordinarily. In which to prepare for the campaign of 1911. For, had there been no spe cial session, the tariff record would have had to be established In the regu lar session next Winter; the Investiga tions might not have been completed before the campaign, and they would have been otherwise pressed for time. New they have all the time they want and all they need. sid they are start ing as though they Intended to make the best of their opportunity. HAWAII READY FOR WAR STEAMER, CARRYING AWAY LABOR, DARE NOT CXEAK. Agents of Alaska Canneries Threat ened With Arrest for Violating Labor Laws. IIONOL,rXt April 7. With ahout l'O Filipino laborers on board, the steam ship Senator, recently outfitted In San Francisco to transport laborers from the Hawaiian Islands to the Alaska canneries, was cruising outside the three-mile limit late today, presumably to avoid libel proceedings. The Senator arrived yesterday and, after taking on fresh water, suddenly left the harbor. On board are F. B. Craig and J. C Bell, representatives of the Alaska Packers' Association, for whom warrants are out for alleged violation of the territorial emigration laws In soliciting emigration without licenses. Injunctions have been issued to re strain further endeavor on the part of the agents to provide Island labor for Alaska. The waterfront ' Is being watched by the police, who are In structed to make arrests if necessary. The Senator is without clearance pa pers, and an effort will be made to ar rest any one coming ashore to obtain clearance. Captain F. I Miller and the crew of the local steamer James Makee were arrested while waiting, with steam up. ready to take laborers to the Senator lying outside of the three-mile limit. They are charged with 'assisting in the unlawful enticement and procuring of laborers. This charge is brought under the new law enacted a few days ago by the Territorial Legislature. A cablegram has been received by the planters, asking them to puy the return fare to Honolulu of the laborers landed at San Francisco by the steamers Ko- rea. Sierra and Wllhelmlna. M. M.

CHICAGO, April 7. George W. Jack on, Incorporated, ona of the most wide ly known contracting and engineering nrms in me country, lurneu uv fairs today to a creditors' committee. The action was voluntary and was be cause of the need of ready money, Vie company's assets being largely tied up in definite form. The firm was Incorporated by Mr. Jack son a few years ago after his business interests had grown to some magnitude Most of the big feats of engineering in the way of tunnels, subways, lake cribs, etc.. in Chicago in recent years were of his work. When the firm took the con tract for.1 the Yonkers water pressure tunnel, however, it tied up Its assets to such an extent that it found itself short of ready cash. It was explained by the creditors' committee today, ani Mr Jackson sought aid from his creditors to avoid financial mishap or possible receivership. The assets of the company are declared by the committee members to be securely above any liabilities, but their fixed na ture prevented the movement required for Immediate work. Ira M.

WASHINGTON, April 7. (Special.) An Investigation will undoubtedly be made by Congress of the shooting to pieces of the old battleship Texas. Sec retary Meyer's letter in answer to Senator Perkins' query as to the wis dom of dstroylng- a craft in tarpet practice that 20 years asro cost $4,000. 000 has not allayed criticism. Even some of the Secretary's staunchest friends in Congress are unconvinced and resolutions calling for an inquiry, which are confidently expected from the Democrats, will be passed possibly without opposition. Mr. Meyer's Justification is that all naval powers recognize that a warship 20 years old. as was the Texas, is ob solete. "For several years," he wrote to Senator Perkins, "she has been used as a station ship, that is, simply as quarters for men at a Navy-yard, and it had for some time been known that it would not be wise to depend upon her for further service." Members of Congress think that after all the money spent in repairs the Bhip should have been still serviceable and entertain a suspicion that the Texas was sent to her doom partly as a vic tim of harsh prejudices against her in Naval circles, which began with the circumstance that she was of foreign design and not a creation of American plans. LAW HELD TOO LENIEHT JUDGE SEXTEXCES WHITE SLAV ER TO FIVE-YEAR TERM:. "Wretch of Vilest Typo of Human ity" Is Term Offered to Man Who Degrades Girl to Utmost. SAN FRANCISCO. April 7. (Special.) Judge Lawlor today sentenced Er nest J. Drake, the . white-slaver who held 16-year-old Augusta Netman In his control for months and took her earn ings upon the street from her, to five years In the Folsom penitertiary. The case Is one of the most typical white slave cases tried in this city, the record showing conclusively that Drake lived for months entirely upon the young girl's earnings and drove her to deeper and deeper shame, and, finally finding her no longer useful, sought to get rid of her by turning her over to the authorities-. In passing sentence the judge said: "As the court listened to the evidence which was Introduced upon the trial of the general Issue in this case, it experi enced some surprise and regret that the Legislature, in fixing the maximum punishment, has limited it to the term of five years. The minor seemed to be little more than a child who had been hurried to an experience such as sel dom comes to the members of her sex. I think this defendant Is proved to be a wretch of the vilest type of human ity." TAX COLLECTIONS LARGE Total of $338,328.89 Received by Clatsop County Treasurer. ASTORIA, Or.. April 7. (Special.)

"There Is no medicine made on this earth that stands higher in my opinion than Hood's Sarsaparilla, or Sarsatabs, which are Hood's Sarsaparilla in tab let form. It has raised me from a crippled and helpless condition to per fect health. I had suffered for a long time from rheumatism and In August, 1908, was suffering Intensely. Both arms and legs were drawn out of shape and I was an absolute cripple for five months. I received Hood's Calendar for 1909 from our druggist, W. II. Graffam, and with the calendar I found a postcard offering me a trial of Sar satabs on the 'No cure no pay' plan. I sent for a box and at the end of thirty days the pains of rheumatism had entirely ceased, although my body and limbs were still drawn out of shape. I continued uIng the medi cine, took three bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla with Peptirpn Pills and also Hood's Vegetable Pills. I am re joiced to be able to say this treat ment effected a perfect cure. I am now strong, hearty and healthy with no trace of rheumatism and I have gained fifty pounds In weight in the last year. I cannot tell my story in as glowing language as I would like, but I have stated the simple facts, which I hope may be the means of Inducing others who have rheumatism to follow the same course of treatment that was so successful with me. I am willing to answer all Inquiries if accompanied by stamps for return of postage." Robert Wilcox, West Scarboro, Maine. Jan. 31, 1910.
