Congressman Tongue Writes to the Board,, of Trade; ' Secretary Moore of the Board of Trad ha received a reply from Congressman Tongue In regard to a resolution passed by the Portland Board of Trad at it meeting n May ISth, advocating the fe- d action of at least SO percent in th Cu ban tariff. This resolution Is ale fa vored by the Kw York State Chamber of Commerce. The letter is as follows f certainly cannot agree with yoO Iff urging reduotlon of to per cent a Cuban, product Thl .would surrender to Cub of our revenues t th amount of about SIS.OOO.m annually. Cuba cannot possibly yield us any trad that will anything ilk compensate that. - We bay much more from Cuba than Cuba ever will buy from ua Th reduotio f to per cent will not give to the United State as taoreaa Of trad that will compeneat th rellnqulshmeni of th duty to Cubs, I think it is agreed oa an hand that A reduotlon f doty vpoa Cuban sugar and tobacco Will not reduo th price to the consumer of the United State, It wlU be simply r ls of that much revenue. Whether it will go to the sugar trust partly, partly to th middle meat and partly . to the piaater, or whd Will set the most beneflt W oiffieult to ay, but the loss of revenue to the United States Treasury I an absolute certainty, That loss must be made upr by taxing the people of th United State. W shall recover a portion of; this, not all of It, by some Increased, trad to Cuba. How much ao on knows. The legislation will be an experiment at beet X do hoi be lieve we otight to advanc too rapidly Irt that direction.' Developments may Jus tify further reduction. If so, thay can ,A mad. fxr "I agre with you that Wshoutct haV fro trade with the Philippine Islands, hut it Is enuallv true that this Could t be don now. The condition In th rnuippine jaiaira are not vnoae oruiii rily prevainng lit t state Of territory of th United State. Government there, necessarily Just now 'Mpentlve, Must be supported. It should be supported as much as possible by th people in th Philippine Inlands. It IS impossible to put ia fere now any tax system such as State. This wlU earn in time, but it Will tern lowly, lit th meantime we must devise some other, methods of rals big revenue. ' The people there are ao- customed to raise revenue by th payment f duty on Xpert and lm porta It I (he principal syitem they know.. They hav beoom aoenstomed t It. Business ha been adjusted to tin system. I hops to see absolute free trade, but it Ml a condition to bo hoped for, to be worked for, but it can com only a It cam in Porto Rico, when Other ts systems can be put I yog, suflloient t support the Oevernment I th Fhfllppin Islands. No taxes are pleasant. They ar all burden some, but they are, necessary burden that must be borne so long; a we bav goversment to maintain." In answer to the above letter Mr, Moore sent a letter W Which he state that while personally Mr. Tongue's view and his own coincide as to ihe advisability of protective tariff with foreign countries, yet th possibilities are that In order to sour trade with th Philippine Islands w will be obliged to work in harmony with th people on th Atlantic Sea- Board, and it wa th carrying out of thl idea tLat Induced the Board, to upf port the Chamber of Commerce of. New Tork in their demand for a reduction in the tariff between Cuba and the Unit ed States. We are a long ways from th enter of population, and in order to cur those measures which w are most ly in need of, we think it best to adapt uraelvea to uch olroumstance . a will bring about th best result, for the Pa eiflo Coast.
