Best NEW TARIFF EXPERIMENT Oregon representative Makes Sclen. tiflc Observations on Work and Plans of Present Majority In Xatlonal Congress. DENVER, July 28. (Special.) "The finest steam roller I ever saw" ! the title applied to the Democratic organi zation which is about to put its new tariff bill into, effect by W. C. Hawley, of Salem, Representative from the r irsi uregon .District. Mr. Hawley, who Is a ReDubllcan. Is serving his fourth term in the House and has had an opportunity to ob serve the "mechanical" construction of party organization. Mr. Hawler Is positive that the present organization is ine nest ever. Mr. Hawley left Washington July IS, to come to Denver to attend business sessions of the Woodmen of the World. The new tariff bill. President Wilson's lobby Investigation and. the Mulhall charges and the Mexican situation are subjects with which he Is familiar. Th Oregon Representative's remarks on the new tarin bill are scientific observa tions. "This new Democratic bill will put Into effect a tariff tax different from any the United States has had," said Mr. Hawley. "For the first time in many years the tariff will be for the sole purpose of raising revenue. It might be termed an experiment. Its supporters naturally say It will reduce the cost of living. Re-oublicans urn doubtful If It will accomplish the good mienaea. "Heretofore, with American indus tries protected by the Republican form of tariff, business In America ha kept moving. Mills have run, factories have operated, labor has been employed. This has been because cheap labor and cheap raw materials of Europe could not be as competitive as with a revenue-only tariff." Mr. Hawley said the free sugar and free wool provisions of the new bill have aroused great opposition from the west, but other provisions have caused equal Indignation In other sections of tne country. "So far as "insidious lobbyists" are concerned, Mr. Hawley has been 1 Congress seven years and never has been approached by a lobbyist. The Mulhall charges do not seem intensely grave to Mr. Hawley. either. Mr. Hawley does not believe that the United States will have to Intervene In Mexico.
