NEAR BEER SELLERS WILL FIGHT LAW TWO MORE PAY $50 APIECE TO THE COUNTY Others Object to Fines and Through Attorneys Will Put up Fight Will Attempt to Prove Local Option Law Null and Told. Though another $100 was collected this morning from indicted sellers of near beer, it nevertheless became ap parent that about 20 of the accused men have no Intention of pleading guilty and will make a fight against paying even a J 50 fine. Indeed it Is reported that Attorney J. H. Raley and J. P. Winter will not only make a fight for the men they represent but will make an attempt to show that the local option law in so far as It ap plies to Umatilla county should be held to be null and void. The grounds upon which they will attack the law have not yet been announced. Messrs Xordean and Duncan, both of Weston, were the two men who were fined. They each pleaded guilty to the charge contained in the indict ment, that of violation of the local option law and like the others who plead guilty were each fined $50. Four of the 34 indicted have not pleaded. The indictments against the clients represented by Winter & Raley were demurred to on the alleged grounds that the facts alleged were not suffi cient to constitute a crime and for the further reason that the accusing clause Is defective. These are only technical points, however, and were 8iniplv brought ud to secure the de. lay necessary to perfect the plans of the attorneys for the attack upon the law. MANY HERE FOR BIG S. S.

" a tariff commission which I wrote In to the bill that passed the senate; but all save one of the democratic senators were the enemies of any tariff commission then, and are its enemies now. "There are examples. I was against them then I am against them now. Compromise on purely economic de tails is often wise; but compromise with sheer Injustice is always wrong. "The making of a tariff, so long as moderation and justice are followed, is an economic question, but the mo ment excess and Injustice are prac ticed the making of a tariff becomes also a moral question. "The fight last year was a national fight, and who bore the battle T I want the people of Indiana to know that all the real fighting that was done for justice In tariff schedules was done by the republicans and not by the democrats. The democrats voted against the bill. I voted against excess and for protection. I voted against the Interests and for the peo ple. I voted and fought for the genu ine republicanism of Lincoln, the founder of our faith; the moral, the father of our tariff; of Garfield, the Interpreter of our principles; of Mc Kinley, the apostle of protection; of Roosevelt, the soldier of righteous ness. "Assuming that honest differences of opinion exist and they do; giving to them upright men who voted for the law as a whole, with credit for the sincerity that I claim for myself, what is the way out of the difficulty? Surely not to turn the government over to that grotesque band of politi cians in public life and who want to get into public life, misnamed the democratic parjy. "Where, then, lies the plain rem edy? in a tariff commission." Tariff BUI a Mockery. Senator Beverldge, speaking of what he designated "the so-called tar iff bill, said: "When I Introduced the tariff com mission bill three years ago I said it had no friends in congress. Today a large majority of republicans are for it and even one democrat has seen the result. But at the beginning of the last session it had only a few friends In congress. Therefore I felt that it was impossible to get a full fledged tariff commission enacted In to law; and so I acted on the theory of getting the best I could. Mine was a fatal faith. For what was the result?- I drew the provision authoriz ing the "president to appoint persons with full power to make tariff Inves tigations under his direction. Senator Aldrch would not agree to all of it. He struck out or changed vital lan guage. Yet what remained of my pro vision gave to these persons broad powers to gather necessary factsto aid congress In tariff legislation., "in this form it passed the senate. "But the conference commission struck out absolutely every word giv ing these persons any powers to In vestigate and collect the facts, leav ing to the president nothing but the authority to employ persons to assist them In the administration of maxi mum and mnlmum sections of the law. "We asked for a reality of the law, they gave us a mockery. We asked for power, they gave us palsy. We ask ed for bread; they gave us a stone. Such a makeshift will not answer the needs of American businessmen, pro ducers and consumers." ROOSEVELT MAY BE MADE CABINET OFFICER WnHhlngton, April 5.
