HARD IN CAPITAL
Well-Known that Congressmen and
Senators Hear From People Who
Want Duty Retained.
(By Burton K. Ktandish. Written (or
the t'niti'il Press.)
Washington, June ".There's a darlt
man with a sinister purpose lurking in
his hrain, in every corridor of the capi
tol and the house an. I senate office
buildings these days. Koch of these
gentlemen carries eonpealed in his ver
bal apparatus a series of explosive ar
guments anaiiist various schedules in
tlie tariff bill. Kach lurking K''11"0'
man is desirous of setting off these
verbal bombs under the particular
achediilc in tho tariff which meets the
disapproval of bis employer.
Among the number is the worried
looking person of sleek aspect who is
here to save the sugar industry from
litter r-r ruin. Members of this class
are mme numerous than any of the
others. Does a harried congressman
seek solace In the bright sunshine and
balmy air of tho eapitol grounds, a
cutawayeil gentleman leaps from behind
some nearby bush and fastens his
thumb and forefinger in the weary con
gressman ' coat lapol. The gentleman '
pocketB protrude with memoranda and
itatistics tending to prove beyond per
adventure that tho sugar beet is due
for eternal demnition if the fortress
of protection is kicked from around it
ns suggested in the tariff bill. From
behind another bush croops another
frock-Coated lobbyist who has a tragic
piece to speak about the sugar cane
plantations which will be no more if
the senate passes the hill.
When, faint and exhausted, the con
gressman reaches his office and bolts
the door, there skips nimbly from the
next room a pleasing, open-faced gen
tleman with more statistics. He's the
representative of the sugar refiner, who
is perfectly certnin with the duty taken
off sugar, tho common people can well
afford two lumps in coffee and tea,
nnd daughter can serve fudge overy
night in the Week, without embarassing
the family exchequer, anil without hurt
ing the pocket of the plutocratic sugar
fane grower.
Hut the sugar devotees are (inly a
part of the army of would-be tariff
bill murderers who are here waiting
an opportunity to kill the entire bill or
merely to relieve it of a part of its
anatomy. There is a very anient band
of wool apostles, who enn reel off at
a moment's notice enough statistics on
sheep and the wool industry to make
existence anightmnreof sheep-counting
for our legislators. Tho American Wool
en company, that orgiinmitinn which
dolefully admits it will probably go to
the bow-wows when tho proposed tariff
law becomes effective, has a small army
of representatives here making a last
lospornto stand aguiiiHt the new sched
ule K.
Then there are the cotton men, steel
men, Iron men, flour representatives,
oatmeal manufacturers' representatives
nnd others representing prnctically ev
vty United Rtates industry which fears
for its dividends If they are not pro
tected by a mountain-high tariff wall.
All are adopting tactics similar to those
employed by physicians when as a last
resort oxygen is pumped into the lungs
of a dying man. A national advertising
cheme by three of the sugar factions
Is but a mall part of the campaign
Letters, statistics, delegations of mann
facturers from the home districts, and
threat of reprisals In fact, every
method known to love, hate and war
re being put into use to stop the pas
wge of the schedules which the Inter
ested industries fear.
Hut through It all, like a dreadnnnght
sailing a stormy sea, the party leaders
are steering the old 1'mlerwnod tariff
measure through the legislative waters
to the Haven of the president's signa
ture. Recalcitrant congressmen of demo
eratie persuasion who have been op
pnsril Id certain of the schedules have
lieen whipped Into line. The moment
they have shown signs of becoming
skittish and o'er leaping the traces of
party pledges, they have been whip
sawed and spurred back into line.
The brunt of this mien viable job of
Keeping the party Intact has fallen on
the shoulders of the chnii nuiii of the
powerful ways and menus committee,
Oscnr I'nderwnnd. With a skill nnd
dexterity and calmness of purpose that
Vnrt evoked niluiii'ution and pinine even
from his must bitter political fees, I'll
derwiMid hns curled tlie In-di of tuitlior

signs of bulking and Ike tariff niigiin
