POLITICAL EFFECT STUDIED Pmhahlhrlo rf for H-lton of j Wool ami Cotton Srrx-dn Ira. J Reiralara Who Orror Ac- J tlon Arr In Minority. ORCWIAX NEWS EfREAr. Wash ington. Oct. I There appears to be great diversity of rr'rilon among Sen ators and P.errentatlvea as to the prosrerts fr further tariff lrpNUrvn at the next session of Congress, and the reasoning of thoe expressing or'n Ion la even more diversified than thrtr conclusions. Intervtes printed In rarloua parts of the rountrr show that Democrats. Insurgents an.1 regular Republicans have all tirrroaM the opinion tliat no tariff lee-lslatl-n will be enacted n'tt session. On the other hanl. tnimhr" f both rartlee and both fii-'tlons In the Republican partv have expressed the opposite view, though there Is consid erable difference of opinion as to tee amount of tariff legislation that tan. be enacted. Pellllral Kffeet fievera. As the neat session of Congress will prohah'.y run up to the time the Na tional conventions assemble, and as Its work will be shaped large! for effect In the ensulns campaign. It wilt be. Incumbent upon the partv leaders to outline their policy prior to Iho convening of Congress on I'eccmber 4. and until that step Is taken It will be difficult to determine Jumi what the session will accomplish. This much, however, la certain: When Congress assembles. President Taft will send In the report and findings of the Tariff Board on the wool schedule and at the same time or soon thereaf ter, will submit the Hoard's report on the cotton schedule and accompanying these reports will go a .strong recom mendation thai the wool end cotton vhedules be revised In accordance wit a the findings of the Board. Krom toat time forward the President will exert is utmost Influence to bring about revision of these to schedules, at least. Iteasserata Kae TTwadess. It will then be up to the Iemocratlc House of Kepresetnatlves to declare It self. The reports of the Tariff Hoard will be auhmltted at once to the com mittee on wava and means. The Iem ocrats will caucus to determlno upon a course of action and If a majority favors revision the committee will bo Instructed to proceed with the prepar ation of a MIL If a majority decides against action on the report of the Tariff Hoard. It may be Impossible to accomplish anything, for the lwmo rratic majority of the ways and means committee would refuse to frame and report a bill In the face of an adverse recommendation from the Wmocratto caucus. The question naturally arises. Can the Democrats afford to Ignore the recommendations of the Tariff Hoard. Can they refuse to bring In a tariff bill which meets the findings of that Poard. when they are assured In ad vance that su.h a bill. If rsssed by both houses of Congress, will be ap proved by the President? It Is evi dent that the Democrats Intend to make the tariff a leading Issus In next year's campaign, and they propose to go be fore the country as the only genuine friends of tariff revision. Such beln the case, could they strengthen their position by Ignoring the report of the Tsrtff Board and refusing to bring In a bill which would receive Presidential PprovalT Mesle Way Osea tm Befasev There Is only one ground on which such refusal could be based; thai would be a determination to stand on their record made al the late special ses sion. It could be argued that they re ported and passed numerous bills lowering the tariff, all of which were vetoed by ITealdent Taft. and could, moreover, condemn the report of Iho Tariff Hoard sa Incompetent, and could set up the claim that their bills of the past session were better than the bills drawn to nieet the findings of the Hoard. Hut could the Democrats get away with an such explanation? It Is doubt ful. Hr this time It is rrelty gen erally recognised that all the tariff i.ei.iailoa named by the House of Rep resentatives last session was of tl:a pop-gun varlctv. hatuy urawn. wmi oul comprehensive study, and without an intelligent array of facts before the was and means committee The bills were reported virtually without hear ings; without the slightest knowledge as to their effect, and without any scientific basis Reawrt Ordered by aeaate. Next session, however, the President will present to Congress reliable data a which to revise at least two Impor t.nt ..h.duies of the tariff; data upon which he himself will be willing to rely, and which will be accepted gen erally by the country. Certainly the facts gathered by the H.ard will r-e more ronrplete than any simi lar data ever laid betoro any previous IVnutlia that considered t-rtr( legis lation. How the lm.vcrats. pledged to revlsicn. can rt Ject t.ila ort'rtun;ty t bring about actual ar.J reasonable re vision. Is difficult to see. The prob sbl'ltles. therefore, seem to (Ivor the reporting and passaga of wool and cot ton bills by the House of Kepresenta tlves. Assuming such bills pass the House. hat will be the att tuJe of the Sen ate? Overwhelmingly" the Senate voted fe the Tariff Hoard, and unanimous! v It voted to direct the Hoard to report cn the wool schedule on December . lll. If the Senate la not to Invite the erarge of rank Inconsistency. It must treat s-rlously the ftn'ltngs of the Tariff Hoard, unless those findings are manifestly nnre'lable. which Is hardly prooabie. Democrats. Insurgents and regulars ail voted for this Tsrtff Heard, and a-! voted to require t"-at board to report on wool on December 4. Ill. lbs. therefore, can the b.n ate refuse to vote upon cotton and wool bills sect ever ry the House. If those Mils conform to the fmd.ngs of the Board?

Aked. former pastor of John D. ltockefeller's church In New York, and Colonel John V. Irish met In formal debate In Valencia Theater last night to settle, publicly, onco and for all. the virtue and general worth that lies In amendment No. for equal suffrage. The contest was not unequal, al though the speakers chosa different weapons with which to hew each other down. Colonel Irish, on tha one hand, struck telling blows with his own be liefs and those of soma other philoso phers In this and other ages. He con ducted a court of Inquiry and brought In witnesses from far and near. H took some of his weapons for granted, but when these were wrested from him he wielded them agnln with right good will. Besides, be had Ms native wit. Me mentioned a reference by Pr. Aked. In which the name of Balfour was used, and said the time had come when Americans no longer patterned polltlcallv. morally or otvlcally after Hrltlsh I-orda. Me was hooted, hissed and Jeered. He tried to resume and h's voice wss flrowned out. The chair man appealed to the audlencea sense of fair play, and Colonel Irish spoke Prr?Aked. on the other hand, battled with history, logic, ethics and morals, snd when these were through, though not disabled, he matched his Imported wits against the Colonel and the audi ence shrieked Its approval. Dr. Aked maintained to the satisfaction of soma thouunds of cheering men and women, mostly women, that the time had coma In California for the enfranchisement of women. The audience, which had filled, every nook and corner of the big theater long ' before the debate began, followed every thrust ajid parry with about me same enthusiasm as la found at a heavy weight ringside. The debate was a howling" success. The sole Judges of the debate must be voters next Tuesday. But so far as upplause wss concerned. Pr. Aked had the best of It perhaps because It was. so far ss tha audience went, rather a pro-suffrage meetlnit. atreaeaa raaapaiera Made. The Inltlstlve and referendum and the recall, despite Governor Johnson's campaign, seem locally, at least .to have been relegated to secondary po sTilons by the strenuous exponents of suffrage. The whirlwind campaign Just closed, which brought suffrage to the fore at the eleventh hour, was one of the most spectacular and vigorous In the history of the state. Adopting many campaign methods of the sterner e. the women at the head of the suffrage movement have worked day and night. Hundreds of automobiles were pressed Into service, and day and night street meetings were held with persistent regularity. Suffragist leaders were Jubilant to night and extremely .optimistic. Their one fear Is of the silent vote, they say.

While the defense, has been in pro cess of construction during the last few weeks, many experiments are reported to have been made privately to deter mine the action of dynamite upon known substances. It Is known that the first defense for the McNamara brothers wtll be to attempt to break down the ease by showing that dyna mite did not cause the explosion. While the plan has not been accepted yet. It Is known that the defense has under consideration the construction of a building la miniature, an exact duplicate of the Los Angeles Times B-iIMIng at rirst and Broadway here.

Investigating tha history and condition, political affilia tions and family connections of every one of the ISO men who are to appear as prospective Jurors In the case and although the list has not been made public It has been given to the defense to work upon.' with the reporting" of the veniremen, the first use of the courtroom especial ly prepared for the case In the new county Hull of Records will be made. All fixtures are In place, teUgraph wires for news services have been In stalled and sections of .seats for press representatives and the general public have been allotted. Chief of Police Ft as II an has assigned 10 plain-clothes men to duty In tha courtroom and Shej-ift Hummel has arranged not only 'for an adequate force of deputies to attend the trial but has ordered that 30 or 40 constant ly be ready to quell any possible dis turbance. According to present plans, the pris oners will be taken to court along tha same passages used by the general public, but it may be decided later to have them enter the scene of the trial over a small bridge which connects Judge Bordwell'a chambers with another wine of the Hall of Records, thus avoiding conducting them through an indiscriminate crowd of courtroom spectators. Judge Bordwell probably will form ally announce Wednesday his denial of the application of tha attorneys for the defense for a change of Jurisdiction to hear the case, thus officially as serting what he has already declared In chambers that he Is not prejudiced, as alleged by tha accused men's law yers. It w-ill be Wednesday also when It will be officially known whether the defense prefers that the brothers shall be tried separately or together. The defense already has announced that it prfers separate trials, the announce ment having been followed by the statement of Fredericks that If the de fense made that move, he would de cide. In accordance with the rights of the prosecution, to try John J. Mc Namara before James B, "because I usually take the easiest case first." COLLEGE "GRINDS" LUG ATlfXETES AXD DEBATERS. SHOW BETTER WORK IX CLASS. Records of Football Men at Oregon rnlversltjr Are Best In Ter iod of Busy Season. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Or.. Oet. 8. (Special.) The football hero, the varsity debater and the other mea of college activity at the Univer sity of Oregon are better students than those known aa "grinds," who attempt to master nothing but their text books. This fact was revealed yesterday in a statistical report madeat the request of the faculty, by Registrar A. R. Tif fany from tha office records for the collegiate year Just closed. The records show that those actively engaged In student-body enterprises are also having better sucoeea with their book learnlDg than tha "boners" who shun the "outside world of things" at college because they fear It might Interfere with their serious bent for study. The general class average of stu dents In this university who are not taking part in any student activity Is given out as 14.2 per cent. The grade average for football men. In the first semester, is 85.3 per cent: for glee club men. t.s.8 per cent: for track men. R8.4 per cent: for debaters and orators. 90.6 per cent. The baseball men averaged per cent, and the basketBau play ers SO per cent, their games coming closer to the final examinations. Though the figures for the second semester vary but slightly from this scale. It Is Interesting to note that the football men fall down In their work to 84 per cent after their athletic sea son Is over. Reason for this may be in the fact that athlete are not al lowed to enter any contest If they are "posted" below the passing grade of 70 In any study. Those students engased In more than one activity average S7.4 for the first term and 8S. for the sec ond. Husband Fmcea Xon-Sopport Charge. ALBANY. Or.. Oct. .(Special.) C W.

One observer, who lays claim to spe cial Information and Impartiality, re marks that "whatever may be the fata of Mr. Taffs domestic programme. Just now seemingly riding for a fall, his uniformly sound Judgment in the field of foreign relations never was better displayed than in his treatment of the supersensitive republicans south of the Rio Grande." Mr. Taffs "admirably discreet silence" during the military demonstration along the Texas border Is contrasted with "the fatal slip of the tongue that gave Borden and Bourasss, in unholy alliance, a weapon against Laurler." It Is predicted In Paris that under General Madero the economic relation of Mexico with the ITnited States will undergo a great development and con solidation and in the near future American capitalists will begin to enjoy "the lion's share of the Immense ma terial fruitage which the new order of things In Mexico will shake from the boughs of the new regime." Berlin commentators wonder whether the conatructlve gifts of Madero qualify him to cope with the "elements of dis affection now bent upon embarasslng the reform party" The view there Is that "recent Mexican history Is be hind Mr. Roofs contention that any general treaty of arbitration for Wash ington must hedge explicitly on the Monroe doctrine and Its numerous and its comprehensive corollaries.

Some of these committees are ready to submit their reports. Others are expected to send in their recom mendations soon. These recommenda tions will be considered by the com mittee of the court and a final draft of new rules will be prepared for pro mulgation by the tribunal. Justice Lurton spent some time in England last Summer, learning directly the Impressions of the English Jurists, who recently prepared new equity rules for the British courts. Because of the abolition on January 1, 1913. of all Circuit Courts of the United States, leaving only the Dis trict Courts, the Courts of Appeals and the Supreme Court, It will be neces sary to revise the rules governing pro cetltire In the Supreme Court, It Is be lieved the court will modernize the rules In many ways.
