1911COTTON0ILL REPORTED AGAIN Democrats Declare Taft Should Approve It. Despite Former Veto—Score Tariff Board. WASHINGTON. June 4.—Declaring the report of the tariff board lacks in formation needed to revise the tariff and pointing out the same “weakness” as existed in the report on the wool schedule, the ways and means commit tee today reported the cotton bill. This measure is identical with the bill pass ed last session and vetoed by President Taft. It provides a reduction of duties on all cotton products varying from 25 to 45 per cent. The Democrats argue this measure should meet the approval of President Taft, "despite the fart that he vetoed it at the last sessiort." The majority members uphold the Underwood bill as “practical legisla tion” and attack the tariff board be cause of “its failure to deal completely with any phase of the firoposed reduc tion." The report especially calls at tention to the refusal of the board to give the names of English cotton mills from which the tariff experts obtained the information that wages are higher this country than In the United, Kingdom. Minority members of the committee also filed their substitute bill prepared by Representative Hill, of Connecticut. It follows conclusions of the tariff board. The rates in the bill are slight ly higher than in the Underwood bill, being based on protection instead of “revenue only." The majority report says: Board's Report Inadequate. "The only change which has occurred in the situation since list summer is the submission of the tariff board re port on cotton manufactures which was submitted to congress by the president in his message of March 26, 1912. in his message the president said: ‘I now’ recommend that the congress proceed to a consideration of this schedule with a view to its revision and a reduction in Its rates.’ • "The executive tariff is now In har mony with the majority members of this house on the general policy to be adopted in spite of his veto of last summer and the only question remain ing Is to what extent the reduction in cotton duties shall be carried. "It was pointed out In the previous house report that the tariff board re port on wool was not in reality a tariff report. This comment is applicable to the report on cotton manufactures, al though the latter contains much more materia! than the former concerning rates of duty and the method by which they are to be levied." ♦ BOY HUNTER’S FALL DISCHARGES GUN; BROTHER IS DYING MACON.

PEFFER LOSES LEG TO FINISH HISTORY OF POPULIST PARTY TOPEKA, June 4.—ln a little room in Christ hospital, a thin, gray-haired and whiskered man lies on a couch and dictates for 20 to 30 minutes four times a day, that the real history of Populism may be preserved. At 82 years he has suffered the amputation of a leg that this history may be com pleted. It probably never will be pub lished. but will be kept in the archives of the Kansas State Historical society, w'here it may' be reaq by historians in the years to come. William A. Peffer was the first and only Populist senator from Kansas. The guileless, long-whiskered man was the butt of the cartoonists and joke smiths. and his w hiskers furnished am munition for bombardments of ridicule. One chapter ot the book is devoted to the “Whiskers of Populism." Peffer has the same whiskers he has always worn. Feel Grouchy « It is not your fault —it is your liver.
